Drivers seat blower problems
Hello, Just picked up a 2002 UL to replace my 2002 Base. The drivers seat blower sounds like a airplane taking off and vibrates bad. The seat heater also is not working. Are the two connected? All other seat heaters work so I don"t think its the fuse. Any one had this issue? Thanks for the help.

Search the forum for instructions on cleaning the blower filter.
Won't take you long but will make a huge difference in the effectiveness of the heater/cooler.
Also makes it quieter.

Pulled the seat blower today. A bunch of the fan blades were gone. Must have sucked somthing up. Does anyone know if the seat heater is on the same circuit? It's not working.

Attached is a picture of the drivers fuse panel located inside vehicle, directly to the left of your left knee if you were sitting in drivers seat.. the arrow points to the driver seat heater fuse.. D S/HTR 15A
If it's your passenger side heater is not working, check fuse panel on passenger side labeled P S/HTR 15A
If it's not your fuse, post back for procedures testing switch..

If the blower motors are working, chances are you may need to clean your filter underneath the seat. Don't get expectations too high as Lexus has labeled them as ventilated rather than a/c or cooled seats for a reason...

Thanks for the response. I actually took the filter out at it was absolutely filthy. I tried vacuuming it and its appearance did not change, but I put it back in and the blowers actually seemed to work a little bit better. So I guess I got some dirt out but most of it is still there. I'll have to order new filters!! (Sorry to steal the forum lol)
