any idea what would cause the driver's side seat in
a 1995 LS400 to stop working. switch lights up, but NO heat

i pulled the seat out to see about bad connections, but everything
looks good. where would I test the circuit to ensure that it's good?
is there a thermistor (thermal resistor) in-line? (maybe it burnt out)

also, can someone recommend a good service manual for this car?

thanks

is this a part that I could buy myself? (possibly after-market?)

ease of install???
i've had the seat out already, so it's not a problem for access

and if this is a common thing for the heating element to break down, it's a pretty crappy
design on Toyota/Lexus' part. I've got friends w/early 80's VWs and their heated seats
work just fine still.
