Default 2003 TT roadster seat heater

Some of Audi's stuff is just crap. Pushed the seat heater button and it went too far into the console and now is stuck. Anyone know of a quick way to fix it or do I have to waist $100+ to fix the stupid thing. If there had been more focus on quality, I wouldn't have this problem. My Lexus has 80k and not one issue...

Default you have to remove the radio to get to the hinged bracket that holds the buttons...

Here is a link to it in the FAQ....<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1193292.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1193292.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Pop the radio out, push it back into place. 5 minute fix...

The clip that holds it there probably ended up coming loose somehow or another.

I wouldn't stress about it...

That's seriously one of the most trivial complaints I've heard yet about a 'focus on quality'... Yeah, I feel ya, but there are FAR worse things out there.

well considering the car has 14k and just replaced the instrument cluster and the blinker relay last month this little issue is just an annoyance ....

It was likely the blinker relay work that caused this problem.

Exactly. You (or whomever did it) likely did not clip the seat heater control back in properly.
