GMC heated seat wont heat up

I replaced the heated seat pad on the driver's side of my Yukon. The switch powers on but the seat does not heat up. I checked that I am getting power at all the connections except for the plug that goes into the seat belt. I suspect the sensor in the seatbelt might be bad. Is there a way to bypass this or another way to fix it without replacing the entire seatbelt buckle?

SOURCE: on my 2003 yukon i have no heated front seat

Look in the fuse box on the driver's side of the vehicle on the outboard side of the dash under the triangular cover which snaps off and on. This panel is not visible when the door is closed. If you have your owner's manual, look on page 5-104. This is where the fuses and relay/circuit breaker descriptions, layout, and specifications begin. This section runs to page 5-111.
You are going to check fuse number IGN3, a red plastic, stab-in miniature 10Amp fuse. It has an "S"-shaped element visible through the side of the fuse body. If the element is broken or burned, replace this fuse. DO NOT use a replacement fuse of ANY other rating; use an identical 10Amp fuse ONLY.
You are also going to look for the "Center Instrument Panel Fuse Block," located under the instrument panel, to the left of the steering column. You are going to check the device labeled "30A CB Seat." This is driver and passenger seat module circuit breaker. This circuit breaker is an automatic resetting device, replacement is necessary only if there is no other problem, and it will not reset.
If only the driver seat is affect, the problem is not the CB Seat; check the wire harness and connector under the seat. There is almost no clearance under the seat, and it may needs be removed to check this. There are four 14mm or 15mm bolts, one at each outboard corner of the seat, the front ones under snap-on plastic covers, which anchor the seat to the vehicle. These bolts are installed with an anti-seize anchoring compound which make them difficult to remove, but aside from elbow grease, there is no other trick to removing them.
Good luck, and if I have helped you, please remember to comment/vote.

Gmc jimmy heated seat not working on one side only.

Hello-
If your fuses are good, perhaps your heated seat switch is faulty. You can test the switch for connectivity using a meter to see if power is going through the switch when in the ON position. If the meter shows no power while in the ON position, replace the switch. If power is reaching the seat, then likely the heating element itself within the seat is the culprit.

Heated seat not coming on

Does the passenger seat stay on and heat up? If so the drivers seat heater grid (just the same as an electric blanket) is shorted or open and that causes the system to switch it self off. To replace the heating grid requires the seat cover to be removed and the grid replaced, this is best left to an automotive trim shop, they are cheaper than the dealer in fixing this kind of problem. The part will need to come from the dealer if still available.

Heated seat 99 GMC Yukon wont work ,also antilock brakes engage

The problem is usually in one of the heat pads in the seat - the heating filament is probably broken and the culprit pad has to be replaced (big job). However, you should make sure the fuse is OK (check the owners manual for location).
When the brakes were installed, one of the ABS sensors was either not installed properly, the wiring is disconnected or the sensor has failed - take it back to the shop that did the work.
