Check the connections to the module and the element. There is help in the forums and videos as well, although not all on the Ford Flex, the idea is the same.

Jan 24, 2019 - If the resistance reading of step 2 shows proper value, perform an amperage draw test of the heater elements by applying power to the YE/BU wire ...
Electronic's ! drivers Power seat module , driver door module . Do you know anything about automotive electronic's ?
The heated seat module (MSM) controls heated seat operation for both the driver and passenger seats. There are 2 modes of operation available for heated seats; both the seat cushion and seat back heat, or seat back only heat. When a heated seat temperature signal request is received, the MSM will activate both the seat cushion and seat back heating elements. When the heated seat BACK ONLY mode button is pressed once the MSM will deactivate the seat cushion heating element and leave the seat back heating element ON.
The adjustable pedal system is controlled by the memory seat module (MSM).
your best bet , have a qualified repair shop check it out ! Could have DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes in door module , BCM etc...
Press the button. If no heat it is usually the heater element in the seat has burnt open. They are located between the cushion and the cover and quite often burn out.
most likely the seat heater elements is the most common problem with the heated seats not working most older gm vech are set up if one element goes out then both heaters quit working (back and bottom)
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.
Thanks for using FixYa. Check for a broken wire connecting the heating element. A
common cause for the heated seats to not work is a burned heater element. There
is an element under the seat cushion cover, and one under the seatback cover.
If either has failed, both will not work. Take the seat apart and investigate
the problem thoroughly.
Determine if the front seat assembly heat element resistance
values are within the specified range.
If the resistance values are NOT within the specified range,
install a Front Seat Heater Package between the existing front seat trim cover
factory heat elements and the seat cushion and back foam pads.
Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.
this is a common problem if you use the seat heater alot.one or both of the seat heater elements will have burned up or broken.where i live it is very cold most of the time and i have replaced hundreds of the seat heater elements.it is rare for it not to be one or both of the elements.
Could be that the wiring for the heater is broken, or that the heating element itself has been damaged. Has anyone knelt on the seat when reaching in to get something out of the car? Or has anyone stood on it (a child maybe)? Pressure like that can break the heaters and keep them from firing up.
