You can get replacement pads from a Vx stealer.  I think there are two sets, one for the seat and one for the back.  They had to be ordered in and took a while.

I had this issue too, where after a minute my ass would be on fire and the pad had gone wrong so I replaced them and I now have a lovely warm seat, which is handy with the current weather.

All sorted eventually, but took a while to find the right seats.

So, if the seat is misbehaving ... stop using it !!!!

It depends upon the seat, leather needs complete cover change.

Our 98 2.5 Elite has cloth, but heaters are not separately replaceable, they need covers as well.

Is there another way to find out, apart from dismantling the seat?
