Default Seat AC non functioning

Has anyone else lost their cooling in their seats? Living in FL it get's mighty warm.

Pressed the button for the first time in a couple months and nothing. No blower noise no cooling. Not sure what fuse to check... or if there is a plug somewhere easily accessible. It's under warranty, was just hoping for something very easy to check before having to take a drive to the dealer.

when working properly... the seat ventilation system is marginal.

FYI, it isn't technically a "cooled seat"; instead air from the floor is blown into the seat. Many just call them "ventilated seats".

The only way you will feel the seats getting cooler is if you turn on the ac and set it to come out of the floor vents.

Thank you folks. Been a while since we have driven our vette. Our daily driver is a Lincoln Continental. When you hit the button for the seat, it sounds like a jet taking off and will freeze your tush. That sucker get's cold. Perhaps, it has just been a while and it is working fine after all. I'll give it another try. Thanks again!

FYI. My seat cooling system quit working after about 1 1/2 years. When it failed you could no longer hear the fans spinning. Took it to my service department. There was actually a service bulletin for it. Don’t ask me
how it fixed it, but they downloaded a new program and it worked after that.
