Not a fuse problem , more likely a burnt out element .
CHEVY GMC SEAT HEATER TROUBLESHOOTING YouTube

Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop.

The heated seat system consists of the following components:
• Driver and passenger heated seat switches
• Driver and passenger seat back heater elements
• Driver and passenger seat cushion heater elements
• Driver and passenger seat back temperature sensors
• Driver seat module
• Driver door module
• Passenger door module

Do you know what a electronic module is ?
DTC B2425 or B2430
Circuit Description
The driver and passenger seat heaters are controlled by the driver seat module. Power is supplied to the driver seat cushion and back heater elements through individual voltage supply circuits. Power is supplied to the passenger seat cushion and back heater elements through a common voltage supply circuit. All of the driver and passenger seat heater elements are grounded by the driver seat module through individual low side drive control circuits. The heater element control circuits are pulse width modulated to ground by the driver seat module in order to control the seat temperatures by regulating the current flow through the heater elements.
DTC Descriptors
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:
• DTC B2425 Driver Seat Heater Circuit
• DTC B2430 Passenger Seat Heater Circuit

Do you know what a DTC - diagnostic trouble code is.

Probably a fuse!
Under the dash on the drivers side or under the hood.
New cars have them labeled right at the fuses not in the manual!
Hope this is helpful.

Good Luck!

There should be a connector under each seat which connects power to the heating element. It is likely either clipped to the seat or tucked under the carpeting. You'll almost definitely need to remove the seat to get easier access to it, though it should be possible to find/access it without removing it, just more difficult. Once you find it, disconnect it. You can use any multimeter with a continuity tester to test the circuit. First, check the DC voltage coming from the wires that come up from the floorboard. If you are getting voltage there, you will want to check continuity of the element itself by probing the two wires with the meter set to it's continuity testing selection. If there are more than two wires you will need to determine which is the common wire and which are the "live" wires. With the power disconnected you can test the element to figure this out easily. For example if your heated seat has three wires, test all three for continuity in pairs. If one wire always shows continuity no matter which other wires on the same plug you touch that should be common.

If the element tests good (in other words you find that all the circuits show continuity) and you are getting power from the plug that comes from the vehicle itself, you might need to check the resistance of the element. It is rare to have a bad element that still shows continuity, but it is possible that the resistance may have for some reason become lowered and the element therefore does not heat up.

Try these and let me know how it goes!

Under the drivers seat at the rear is a black plastic cover. Remove the cover , it is over the main harness to the seat. Unplug the seat harness and inspect the connection. I see alot of these get knocked loose or get corroded. Good Luck.

Does it work on any speeds? If it still works on high then the blower resistor is bad. On the passenger side under the glovebox is the blower motor and resistor.If possible try wiggling the pigtail plugs that attach to these two components.It is not uncommon to have problems with these pigtails.Also try tapping the bottom of the blower motor to see if it will start working again.If it does The connections are poor and need repaired. If the blower will not work at all check for power at the blower motor pigtail with a test light or dvm. Will be glad to assist further if more assistance is needed.

2003 yukon XL one headlight is not getting power, how do i troubleshoot?

If low and high beam both are failing to work check the ground for that side . If high or low one works and the other does not check the fuse for that beam as it has 4 fuses one for each side and low and high. The fuses are in the underhood fuse block . Marked as LO HDLP LT, HI HDLP LT, LO HDLP RT and HI HDLP RT . They are 10 amp fuses .

Yukon XL driver side seat not working

There is a seat module under the seat that reads the inputs from the switches and then sends power to the motors, disconnect and reconnect and it may reset. If not you will have to check inputs at module.There is more than one connector on it, you will have to disconnect the power supply.

Driver's side power seat and heat in both seats not working

hello, have someone check all fuses-and plugs for the power seat, they may be a relay for this problem, can call autoparts store and ask about any relays for the heated seats and the power seat, if thats not it you may have to replace, electric motor for seat, sounds like a fuse, the way it all quit working..

My power seat stopped working in my 2003 Yukon XL. The heated seats stopped working as well.

Try this remove the ckt breaker for the power seats the ckt breaker is located in the fuse box inside down by the drivers left foot. leave breaker out for about 10 seconds then reinstall it and see if the seat starts moving. If it does there is a reprogram for this and needs to be done by a dealer or someone who has access to be able to reprogram your vech.
several things could cause your heated seats to not work. If the seat and heated seat seat stopped at the same time could be the reprogram could fix it. If the heated seat quit working at a differant time it could be the seat heater element. get a schematic of the heated seat and ohm the wires for the element. If either element tests open then the element will need to be replaced. You might as well replace both of them at the same time since the seat covers have to come off to replace the seat heaters.(back and bottom ) If one element is bad then both heaters quit working.

Driver seat heater only stays on for 15 seconds. If I only turn passenger seat heater on, passenger side works fine, when i add drivers side, both shut off. 2005 1500yukon XL Also heater blower just stoped...

No biggy.The seat heater can be repaired by the dealership.Should not cost much because there are no parts just a reprogram of the drivers seat module.The blower motor is the blower motor resistor module.It is on the passengers side under the dash next to the blower motor.You should be able to do this yourself if you have a little mechanical experience.Hope this helps.Good luck.

I have a 2005 GMC Yukon XL and my heater only blows out cool air it will not blow hot air. Also the heated seat on the driver side does not work.

Your heater problem is more than likely a bad temp door motor.The seat heater problem is probably one of your elements.Either back or bottom.If your switch light is coming on then the element is bad.

02 GMC Denali front heated seats won't work

test to see if you have any power going through all the connectors for the seat heater, there may be a spot where there is a connector that has gone bad, or potentially it could be the whole element that is bad
