    Thanks for the tips. It helped with me 2015 Expedition, but I did it a little differently. I took the casing apart and soldered two wires to the back of the board where those pins are mounted and put a hole in the back of the plastic case to feed them through. Worked perfectly.

      Awesome! Ive also heard you can order a wire pig tail that is a direct fit to the module you just have to solder all the wires together.

    Thanks ! This is really helpful, im gonna fix passenger seat of my 2010 Expedition now ;). For the same seat the seat forward-backward motion is not working, will need to check if its a motor or the button. Will start with the fuse though.

      After months of it working flawlessly, the passenger seat would turn on for about 1-2 mins and not turn back on.

    Is this still working for you? I recently changed out the plug wire for wire but did not think to add a secondary ground wire. I still have issues with the seats staying on. They will work one time and not the next. Thanks for the video

    • @TheShopWorldWide
      @TheShopWorldWide  ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine worked for a little more than a year, and then the passenger seat would only work for 5 minutes and then not work again.

    Hey man I have a 2012 expedition xlt that didnt come with the heated or cooled seats I bought them from a wrecked one with the hvac controls to turn them on and I hooked everything up, but they dont work they just turn on for a few seconds and turn off. Do you know if there’s a difference in any of the wiring from normal seats to heated and cooled? All things under the seat plugged right in and it filled ever slot available under the seat. The button just doesn’t stay on and and obviously it wont heat the seats. I dont care for the cooled seats just want the heated to work.

    • @TheShopWorldWide

    Hey, just wanted to say thanks for the heat module fix you did. Our 16 F-150 has the exact same issue. I could fix it to last two weeks maybe until a bump in the road caused it to quit. After watching your video, I never knew you could wire two terminals together. I did this and it worked. I'll know in a couple of weeks if it's fixed for sure but right now it's working better. Cold here in Canada and we're spoiled with heat/cool seats. Thanks for the video. Looks like you saved me $500 cdn on module and plug kit or at least & 400 on Amazon for the same parts. Cheers from Canada.

    Did you have to disconnect the battery for 10 minutes in order not to have air bag deployment? I hear this a lot I'm not sure if it's true with all makes and models but I have a Ford Fusion too and if you didn't have to I'm pretty sure I don't. Just trying to save myself a step. Thank you

    • @TheShopWorldWide

The passenger side stopped working about 4 months ago, and now the drivers side doesn't work, although the light on the button stays on when i press it. I checked the fuses and they are good. I checked the wiring connections and they are good too. I guess my next step is to try your fix?

      Do a part search on both vehicles and check the model numbers. Very good chance they are when they come from the same generation and comparable trims. Some components will be used for 3-4 iterations (aka +10 years). I know your sest climate control module is... I'm about to fix mine.
