BMW F-series Comfort Seats Heating Repair 

You saved me a lot of bucks ! Just fixed my seat with the guidance of your video ! Thanks 🙏

I can't thank you enough for posting this. I thought I was doomed to either buy a used seat or bite the bullet and purchase the thousand dollar plus new cushion. Sure enough I followed your video and it was almost exactly the same problem. All fixed. Thanks again!!!

Many thanks for the video. I pulled the cover back and saw the problem immediately. Bit of soldering and heat shrink, and I now have a nice warm seat bottom just in time for the cold weather.

My bottom seat heating stopped working. I already noticed exactly the same dent as you showed in the video. After removing everything from the front of the chair and loosening the leather I could immediately see the burned spot. I had to look carefully for the other wire its indeed very tiny. Now all I need to do is a bit of soldering with some heat shrink around it. Then the struggle to close the leather again with the circle thingy's. Thanks for posting this video great help!

Hall of fame hero, right there - THANK YOU. I have this problem on an F07seat and BMW sells only the entire leather piece with heating, its 1017 EUROS without installation. Unbelievable. I will try this out and get reply here once i am done but this gives me hope and you made a very detailed video so i think i can do it.

Thank you for this awesome video. I fixed my heating and now i am prepared for the winter season Thanks you!

Thanks! Now I know why it smelled like burned foam and my steat heating is not working any longer. Looks pretty straight forward to fix it

I have the same problem, but with your tutorial fixed .thanks✅️

Merci beaucoup pour cet excellent tuto, j'ai pu réparer mon siège chauffant grâce à vous ✌️

Thanks, nice work. Very helpful video.

Thanks for your great video also has the problem but your instructions helped me a lot thanks...✌️👌👍👍👍

Bravo. I have the same problem.!!! Congrats 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

my father and me just did it a few moments agoo. thank you so much was not tooo hard but still some anoying parts with the metal rings etc

Thank you for the video!

Works great!

i had the same problem with middle of the seat not heating, and tried to see if it's the same problem , and everything was fine there,but i measured the resistance of the seat and was ok, after i measured the resistance of the leg support boom:)) tried the one from passenger side on driver side and everything is working, so now i need to buy a new leg extension to solve the problem

It worked! Was easy too with your very detailed instructions. I didnt have the aluminium foil, dont know if thats a big deal or not but i used the shrinktape and originally there was no aluminium either so i was hoping its not necessary. Do you think it will burn up without it? Yo either way, THANKS A LOT! As said, bmw in austria quoted 1007 euros without labor for this. Took me an hour... I am so grateful!

Many thanks for posting this! I was searching for a video on this problem for quite some time now. I am sure mine has the same issue for the bottom part but can this be the reason why the back part is also not working? On mine, only the sides of the seat, back & bottom do work. Any reasons causing these wires to overheat? Maybe keeping the seat heating on for to long? Will tear my seat apart in the near future now that I know there is hope, so thank you again 😁

Thanks! Now I know why it smelled like burned foam and my steat heating is not working any longer.

is it the same for bmw e60 comfort seats

Same problem but the green one is burned and cut, its cut pretty far so dont know is it possible to fix...

i was having the same problem, followed your steps, but no burn or electrical fault i figured out that thigh support pad was broken so it completes the circuit i guess bottom seat heat was not working becayse of that. Changed passenger side one with driver side and all fine

Thanks so much for the video! Did exactly as per your instructions but when turning on the heated seats the one of the two wires stars to smoke. Most probably because of a short. Any advice?

I'm having an issue with my F15/X5 where the bottom of the seat isn't heating (sides and backrest heat just fine). I would assume there is an open connection and there is a slight indent on the end of the end of the seat however my leg extension or thigh support as BMW calls it isn't motorized and I can't seem to figure out how to get the extension piece off. Any help appreciated - way more informative than the dealer wanting to replace the whole bottom half of the seat which I find crazy.

Wirklich fachmännisch ist das aber nicht wenn man nicht mal die Polster austauscht wo die Brandflecken drin sind

Hi I have different problem, my seat heat only sides of hole seat, only backrest sides, and seat sides are heating. What could be the problem?

i just did this repair exact as in the video and had burnt foam,broken burnt wire joined copper with fine black wire, but the base of drivers seat still not heating, back and base side bolsters heat up fine. strange. what else could be the issue, fuses? other part of the wire broken?

Hi my seats stay on for 3 mins and turn off. Will this work? Thanks.
