Towards the end of this past chilly morning season, I remote started my 19 JLUR. It was below 40°F, so the seat and steering wheel heaters went on automatically. After hopping in I noticed a strange smell, and with the door closed and blocking the wind, I immediately saw a string of smoke coming from the steering column right behind the wheel. The wheel was warm and still powered, so I shut it off and the smoke quickly stopped. Before shutting down at work about 10 minutes later, I tried turning it back on but the buttons indicator light automatically shut off after a few seconds. It was completely shot.
Since I'm way out of the factory warranty period, and frankly wouldn't let them touch it even if that wasn't the case, I was hoping that one or more of you wonderful fellow members would happen to know exactly what I need to order to get the heated steering wheel back online.
Thanks in advance!
