heated seats turn off after one minute

Drivers sat heater turns off after a minute Any suggestions?

Check under the seat to see if anything is blocking free flow of air through the seat. Beyond that it sounds like a thermal sensor in the seat is tripping too early.

Our light also goes off after about a min. The seat is not heating. Any how-tos out there to change/replace/fix the thermal sensor. Just had my Verano in the shop last week for $1500 of fixes.... don't really want to give them anymore money less than a week later if it's something hubby can fix/change.

Part #22989418 Heater Element Replacement. Had exact same issue around 40,000 Km. Replaced under warranty. OBD CODE: B2425. Seat has to be taken out of the vehicle and disassembled to replace part, not something for an average person to tackle. See diagram, it's #14 that needs to be replaced

if it is similar the common/known issue element replacement on the early Regals, that is not a small task. I had the driver seat of the Regal fail under warranty and the passenger after warranty. The one I paid for cost a few bucks. :-(
