Hello all, the car in question is a 987 Boxster S.

I jumped into the car yesterday to take her for a nice long drive as it has been sitting on the drive for over a week covered in snow looking very sorry for itself.
I pushed the button to turn on the heated seats and nothing. Red LED not comming on. I tried to turn on the passanger one and that too won't turn on and no red LED lighting up.
My first thoughts are it could be a fuse blown. I've yet to check this but am i right in thinking there will be a fuse for the heated seats in the fuse bay by the driver side footing area?
If it turns out the fuse is not burnt out, is there anything else i can do/check? and if it's not the fuse any ideas what else could of gone wrong? The fact both chairs are affected and not one leads me to think the problem is comming from no power, i.e fuse etc but any other ideas would be really appriciated.

Cheers

To be honest i've yet to check the fuse. I guess you could say i'm being alittle lazy. I'm sure it will be something like the fuse. I will do it tomorrow. Scouts honour.

Hmmmm, the battery did indeed die on me and has just recently been replaced. I'm intrigued why you asked that aswell as asking are my windscreen washers working. What is the connection there?
