So I noticed tonight when I got in the car, something was funky.

Turns out the lights for the heated seats aren't working, as well as the backlighting for the gear selector, and the overhead reading lights. The regular dome lights are just fine.

Is there a specific fuse the center console type stuff would be on? Looked through the manual and the fuse list and nothing jumped out at me. Tried pulling a few and checking them with no luck.

Thoughts?

There are several wiring terminal blocks under the center console. My power windows quit awhile back. Pulled the console up ( all on nylon clips) and one of the plugs was loose.

huh, sounds interesting. I'll have to see if I can figure out how to get it off :)

Huh, if you can take some pics of it removed, it would be much appreciated. I monkeyed with it a bit, and I don't see any easy way to get anything off there :D
