Hi Gang,
Bought this nice, clean '03 Focus ZTW about a month ago. As with all cars of its age, things happen. Driver's side has an issue with the lumbar heating pad in the seat; - it went crazy hot after about 10 to 15 minutes on Saturday last weekend. Switched it off and it took forever to cool down.
Read through a number of threads concerning the heating pads in the seats in these vehicles. Research tells me Ford discontinued the replacement pads a few years ago.
Has anyone repaired a heating pad (replaced it?) recently using later model Focus heating pads? I imagine that there might be some 'MacGyver'ing' required to make them work if connectors are not the same, etc.
Thoughts anyone?
