Presents CARBONTECH™ Seat Heater INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND OWNER’S MANUAL SINGLE SEAT APPLICATION With two 12” x 26” Heating Pads (HI/LO/OFF Round illuminated Switch) P/N 300202-MWA
Installation Preparation & General Notes: 1. Seat heater system will NOT work on seats manufactured using the “foam in place” (trim cover glued to foam pad) method of trim cover attachment. 2. If the vehicle is equipped with an anti-theft radio, the radio code must be written down prior to disconnecting battery cable. The code must be re-entered when the negative battery cable is re-installed. 3.
Installation: Open box and remove contents. Check to make sure that the following parts are included within kit: Qty Description Part Number 2 1 1 4 4 1 1 1 2 10 12”x 26” Seat Heater Pad Wire Harness Assembly Switch Assembly Black Tape Strips Gold Tape Strips Red T-Tap Connector Blue T-Tap Connector Yellow T-Tap Connector Male Spade Connector Wire Ties 30-0108-MW 30-4200004 30-0213-MW 30-0110-MW 30-0109-MW 88-2300003 88-167000-TT 88-2300002 88-167000-MS 88-8880001 Seat Cushion: 1.
7. Measure the width of the center seat area between the longitudinal seams. Note: The width must be at least 250 mm (10 in). The heating pad CANNOT contact the side seams of the seat. If it does make contact, the seat heater cannot be installed. See Fig 3 Fig 3 8. Position the heating pad with the label facing down and the wire harness routed towards the back of the seat area. Adjust the pad so the thermostat is located approx. 25-50 mm (1-2 in) forward of the back rest.
11. Reposition heating pad onto cushion foam. Make sure thermostat is in the correct location. (see step 9) Using the supplied gold double sided tape, attach the back edge of the heating pad to the cushion foam. With the pad attached at the rear, determine the final length. Note: Make sure that the length difference between the cushion pad and back rest pad is not more than 275 mm (10-3/4 in). See Fig 7 Fig 7 12. Trim if needed and attach using the supplied gold double sided tape.
Seat Heater Pad Wire Harness Routing/Attachment: 1. Route wires from cushion & back to underside of seat. Use supplied wire ties to fasten harness to seat. Warning: Make sure attachment locations will NOT interfere with any seat movement. Seat Heater Switch: 1. With the seat still removed from vehicle, choose a switch location on a flat surface where the wires won’t interfere with any seat movement. 2. Mark the location and drill a 19.5 mm (3/4 in) hole using a stepped drill bit.
4. Install seat mounting fasteners and torque to manufacturers recommended specifications. 5. Re-connect the negative battery cable and test function the seat heater system. 6. Re-check all systems and accessories where components were removed or relocated during the installation process. 7. Re-install vehicle scuff plate and kick panel.
Troubleshooting: If system does not heat up or no indication of power. - Check fuse in seat heater harness and vehicle. - Temperature of seat may be above the preset thermostat temperature and will not allow it to come on. (i.e.: sun shining on seat) - If the light on the heated seat switch does not come on, it could be that the switch bulb is burnt out (replace switch) or that there is no power to the switch.

Functional Principle of CARBONTECH™ System: Each heater pad is an electrical resistor. A seat heater kit contains two (2) heater pads: one (1) for the cushion and one (1) for the bag. To realize two (2) heating levels, the two (2) pads are connected serial for the “LOW” position and parallel for the “HIGH” position. This gives a 25% rate for the “LOW” position and 100% for the “HIGH” position.
