B0335Driver Seat Heater Circuit

  • Generic OBD-II code · Body
How the car detects it
B0335 is unsupported by J2012 lists and by service information; its topic duplicates B0341. The circuit is the heating mat in the driver cushion and backrest plus its supply. Real codes elsewhere: Saab's 9-3 climate module stores B2428 01 when the left heater is shorted to battery voltage and B2429 06 for an open left heater; GM's 2011 Saab 9-5 measures current and voltage every 10 s and sets B2425 0B/0D/0E for high current, high or low resistance. Chrysler bulletin 08-049-14 (Wrangler 2011–12) replaced elements whose resistance fell out of range below −12 °C (B1092). Patent US5229579A cuts power on a detected short or open to prevent overheating.
