ok but usually when you put the parking brake on, does that trigger a light in the dash to warn you the parking brake is on? never even tried it...

cause from the wiring diagram there is a relay that is triggered from the AC unit and that relay is powered by the fuse 22 on the power side so the light will come on and it will trigger the relay but you won't have any power to the seat heater itself

didn't even know that was a feature and never even used the parking brake... Does the light comes on in the dash when you apply the parking brake? If not than it might be switch related, otherwise, no clue

When you say they worked, did the seat actually became hot or you mean the lights were ON on the button?

when that hapenned to me it was because the pressure in the AC system was too low (very slow leak) No clue how that relates but once they filled the system if started working again

Only on awd models.

you had the wheels balanced at first or recently while trying to fix the problem? If you haven't done it recently you might have lost a weight or something. If all 4 wheels came back correct, you can try to check the main drive shaft

ok well then you must have 4wd, just bend over and look under to see if you have a rear diff or not...

if you have the light that means that it probably was 4wd but since it is lit it means it doesn't work anymore.

The antenna might be in the rear window, check to see if there isn't anything broken in the rear window, all the little lines in there. Otherwise you might have a bad connection or badly insulated wire on the antenna. First time i hear of this though

if the transfer case fail you can always drive it in 2wd. Seems like they don't really know what they are searching for though, they want to slap parts on it until the missfire stops. What is the price for the job they mentionned?

yeah 4wd doesn't work, traction control still does i would beleive. It is the wire that goes to the clutch in the diff so it won't engage.

Your mechanic didn,t tell you what it is? It is the rear diff, if it still works you need to get it sealed again, not change it...
