Just replaced my battery and while I had the seat tilted up, I noticed something, there was a plug disconnected from seat and I don't know what it goes too, my drivers side heated seat does not work while my passenger side does..
The only reason I'm slightly concerned is when I bought this car during the test drive I noticed that the heated seat didn't work, I really didn't care, but I told them a price and if they would fix it, they said it would be a very expensive repair, i really didn't care so I said never mind, (it was a used car dealer).. I'm just curious, should I try cutting the zip tie and plugging it in? Could they of unplugged it thinking I would come back asking for it fixed? So therefore they could make money off something so simple. It really boggles my mind as to why it would need to be unplugged, I'm scared to plug it back in, should I?
Does anyone know if the battery must disconnected if removing the seat completely? I want to get the seat bottom reappolstered but the seat needs to be removed.

No, you should be fine, just don't turn on the car while the seats are removed as it will throw error codes ex.) heated seat temp sensor not working... Etc... Don't disconnect the battery. Unless you have the car on a battery tender. Disconnecting the battery with no battery tender could cause other issues.

What plug connects to heated seat itself?
