Do you have buttons for heated seats? Do you have the window sticker? Did you not get any documentation when you purchased stating what you were buying and the options it is equipped with? I believe the express package is the base model and, unless specifically added, heated seats would not come standard.

There is no button for heated seats but the manual states you use the fan button to activate the seat pressing it in for 1 and 2 3 times for off
I do have the sheet that was on the window stating options etc no heated seats on there I ll just to wait for a cooler day to see if they do get warm
anyway those wires under the seats have me stumped! could be for airbags maybe?
appreciate the reply

Many times these days, manufacturers install the wiring harnesses for every imaginable option, but not the rest of the hardware unless the option is purchased or is part of an option package. They could also be for the SRS system.

Wiring harness probably for the seat belt & air bag system.

Pressure sensors in the seats tell the ECM whether or not the seat is occupied.
