Default Passenger Heated Seat Problem

Hey everyone, apologies if this is already an existing thread!

I just bought a 2016 GX and when we got it delivered (bought it long distance) my fiance realized the passenger seat heater doesn't work! The light turns on when the dial is turned but the passenger seat temperature has no noticeable change. I was planning on checking the fuses tomorrow but from the fuse box diagram both front seats are on the same fuse and the driver seat works perfectly. I plan to check my under seat connectors and look for obvious issues but any advice on how to fix this or possibly how to start diagnosing?

Does the ventilation mode work on the seat? If fuses check out then here is some other electrical tests you can perform

Thank you for this! This is exactly what I was looking for. I believe that the vented function does work but honestly its been so cold since we got it it was hard to tell haha Where did you find this info though if you dont mind me asking?

If you turn off HVAC fans and vehicle not running you should be able to hear the fans in the seat. Content is from FSM.
