So are people running into issues about supplying power? are fuses being blown while using these seats and the windows if you go through the fuzebox

No. Connect to a fuse that turns off with the ignition and is not overloaded with other things such as the radio and you will be fine. I did this 2 years ago and have had no issues.

no problems with 2001 Toyota Solara. Tapped into unused 20 amp slot at the fuse box. If concerned about using existing fused circuits, run a fused hot wire from heater switches directly to battery.

I wanted to make sure mine were connected to a power source that was on the same as the ignition so if I forgot to turn off the seat, it would turn off the heated seat as to not kill the battery. I ended up paying a local auto electric type shop to actually make the connection and it cost 20 bucks and well worth it, now I installed the heater and ran the wires, not hard at all on a 2009 Tahoe

Sounds like a warranty repair to me. I don't recall any fuses on the rear panel. Check the manual. Sorry, looks like a display failure.

I didn't install any additional fuses. I'm guessing the ground wire is there to protect the battery connection. It was easy for me to do it, so I did.

I just blew a 10A fuse on my cigarette lighter. I have another that is 20A fused. No issues on that one.

Did you have the car on at the time? I did the same and blew my interior lights fuse. There is a spare in the fuse box. If you remove the fuse, install all the lights and then replace the fuse that's the safest way. Hope this helps!!

No problems with fuses at all. But - it is advisable to consult your electrician to get the right fuse for the room you use the Miele in. I love it.

I still have the initial fuses. Don't move it when it's working nor after working. It needs time to get cold. If you don't do that the fuses use to break.

Peggy,It does not all appear to have fuses. If it does I cannot locate them. There is no mention of fuses in the manual.Larry

the owner of the company was great when i talked to him. however, i never bothered to tell him that it blows a fuse every time i've tried to use it. i'm 58 years old and have used electrical products switches, pots, dimmers that didn't blow.... who knows, for me, it just sits there and eats a fuse every single time.

You may have possible blew a fuse? Make sure to recheck all your wiring, I've had mine installed for almost 2 years now and they still work fine. Worst case is you might have a faulty unit.

I dont have this exact unit, but one like it, and it was connected to a breaker panel. I solved the fuse problem by replacing them all with 15A fuzes since the breaker panel was easier to access.

nothing to do with the side socket don't even know why they say that the control box is your fuse box where the switches are . that if you have an over load the switch will throw itself to keep from having a fire from one fuse being over loaded

You had better check with a VW mechanic first. My main concern would be blown fuses due to overheating.

I AM NOT AN ELECTRICIAN... My 240 is wired with 2 hot wires (one white one black) plus ground connecting to 2, 30amp fuzes. one hot wire to each fuze and the ground to the common ground in the fuzebox. #10 wire is required according to Aprilair. I STRONGLY suggest you get an electrician to do the wiring. THIS IS A LOT OF POWER. I watched my electrician do the wiring. In additionthe Best thing to do is call AprilAir (800) 334-6011 directly.

None, the driver is built into the panel and is non-user serviceable. It's built into the board, so if it blows out, you have to replace the unit.
