I accidentally left my window down and it rained. Seat got wet. Now heated seat comes on by itself. Do you think it needs extensive (expensive) repair? Or will it stop once it fully dries out?

It is hard to know for sure what the issue is but more then likely it is a switch issue or the control module is shorted. Clearly the more expensive repair would be the control module so that is attached below.

It is also, hard to know for sure if this will stop once it fully dries but it is possible. So I would suggest waiting about a week before jumping into a repair because if it is a switch then I suspect it will stop when it dries.

However, I am attaching the info for the module and it includes the part number for the module. Let us know what happens and we can go from there. Thanks
