Here's what GM gives to their service Techs to check seat heaters:

I have a 2017 LTZ  with the same problem. Dealer says it is the heated seat control module. Hopefully the extended warranty will cover it. I'm not paying them $675 if the warranty doesn't. The part is $ 43. Is there any setup or programing to just change out the module with a new one?

Common problem with the seat cushion heaters. They short out. I had to replace both lowers on my 2014 Sierra that had less than 50,000 miles on it. Plenty of youtube video's out on how to do it. It's kind of a pain. Just another weak point of the GM trucks. I think there is a better improved replacement heater GM is now using to replace the bad ones.

I have a 2014 LTZ 1500, took mine in to the dealership and they said the module below was bad.  I purchased a new one but have not been able to find the location.  Anyone know??

This is located under the passenger seat, dead in the middle. can be accessed from the front of the seat. Just unplug the two plugs going in it.

Fyi, I replaced the oem leather seat cover on my ‘14 sierra. Never did it before. Watched a youtube video. Wasn’t that bad. If for some reason you need access to seat heating element, you can probably replace the seat covers while you’re at it. Makes the interior look new.

I have a 2014 LTZ Silverado and I could not find that module under the seat of the passenger. There is a large module with about six connections under the driver's seat. Has anyone figured out the location? I assume that is my problem because no one rides in the passenger and both seats are not heating which I would assume its the element themselves.

If anyone has found the issue to this I would love to know. I have been trying to figure it out for months now and haven't gotten anywhere. I do not see the module like some have said.

Has anyone had any luck with this? 14 LTZ with heated and cooled seats here.  Cooled seats work fine and lights for heated buttons work, but no heat, bottom or back either seat.  Purchased module, but was not found in either seat.

get a subscription to alldata.com for your truck, that will have diagnostic procedure for the problem, where that module goes and how to replace it.

    • I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.        
    • This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.
    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
