Climate Controlled Seats

CLIMATE CONTROLLED SEATS

The climate control seat system is able to heat and cool the front seats. Each climate controlled seat is operated by push-buttons on the electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module located on the instrument panel. Each front seat temperature is then monitored and controlled by the climate control seat module (CCSM) located on the passenger front seat track.

The front seat cushions are equipped with a plenum (duct) attached to the cushion frame suspension wires (serviced with the cushion frame). Air from the cushion thermo-electric device (TED) and blower assembly is routed through a plenum and into the manifold fitted within the cushion foam pad (serviced with the cushion foam pad). The front seat backrest TED and blower assembly operates similarly by routing air directly through the backrest manifold (serviced with the backrest foam pad).

The climate controlled seat system contains the following components:
- EATC module
- CCSM
- TED and blower assembly within each front seat cushion and backrest
- Air filter (attached to each TED and blower assembly)
- Cushion and backrest foam pads (includes manifolds)
- Cushion and backrest trim covers
