  1. Hello, As per bio I'm roadtripping through North America in my 1999 Legacy Outback. When I was in British Columbia, the seat heaters were really useful early in the mornings, and only came on when I switched them on. Now I'm in New Mexico, they've decided to stay on all the time and it's really not ideal! Because I don't need seat heat for now, I'm happy just to disable it. Sadly, per the manual, the same fuse guards the seat heaters *and* the cigarette lighter/accessory socket, which I don't want to lose the use of. I found connections under the seat (see pic) but am not sure which one to pull - I guess one is the heater power and the other is the switch and/or a feedback to a thermostat. Can I just pull both? Will the disconnect confuse and then damage any relays &c? Alternator burnt out in Cali a few weeks back (middle of the PCH!) so I'm slightly cautious on the electrics, perhaps needlessly. Further on, any ideas why the switch no longer controls the heater would be most welcome. Thanks, from someone who's backside is slowly broiling! // Tom PS: For pointless conjecture, why on earth wire the heaters and the socket together when there are two empty spaces in the same fuse rack??
