Help...stereo installed... now heated seat and awd wont light up

[bigballerhanh]

I was installing a new headunit and sirius today and of course i had to take the front panel off and disconnect a bunch of things such as: clock, hazard lights, heated seats, awd/4x4 etc... After installing the headunit and craming all the wires inside the small area behind the headunit, i put everything back together and now the driver side heated seat button wont light up and when I select all wheel drive that wont light up on the dash board. However, if i select 4hi or 4lo that lights up perfectly. If anyone has any suggestion to fix this problem I would really appreciate the help....thanks

I just installed siruis today too. Good investment. Are you a hundred percent sure you put the wires back in the exact same spots they came from, and a hundred percent sure you didn't accidentally break a wire out from one of the clips when you pushed them all back in?

I am not exactly sure but because i was getting dark but i will double check everything for sure tomorrow when i can get some more daylight..... Anything specific i should check for???

just look and see if any of the wires came free from the harnesses. That and you didn't mix up any of them, but I don't think you can because if I remember correctly they are all different.

swap the seat and 4x4 plug, they might just be reversed. nissan uses alot of plugs that are the same shape.

I got the 4x4 issue fixed. It was a bent pin inside of the plastic harness. As far as the heated seat light not lighting, I dont have a clue. The seat heats up though!

If the seat warms your buns but the light doesn't come on, a look at the FSMindicates it's just about got to be the bulb. Either loose or burned out.

must be the light, if your going to replace it good luck..the bulb is the wierdest and tiniest incandescent ever, and i broke my harness clip getting it out so now the switch doesnt work,..gotta replace it

That's funny. The light for my driver's side seat stopped working after I pulled the dash also. I checked the bulb and it's blown. It is an odd little light so I just left it alone.

Thanks a million guys.... If you all ever find any info on replacing that heated seat light, let me know..... it's really annoying to me
