New leather seats! / Heated Seats in a Gen 3 - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

AMScamrySE · 01-21-2004, 12:56 AM

The Pimpwagon just got a little more pimpish.. I just purchased a full Charcoal grey leather interior for my Gen 3 SE. Mint, first one I have even seen on ebay. I got it for $150 +$130 s/h. Its In very good cond. I am extra happy with it.... Only prob is that its power, and there is no harness for power seats in my car (92 V6 SE) THAT I COULD FIND. Anyone else have leather in their gen 3 and know anything about this. And if anyone knows where I can find a harness that would be Spank-tabulous

I was also wondering if this new seat is also heated. There is 2 plugs on the bottom. One for the power and one for something else. If Anyone knows PLeAAsse let me know.

Thanks In advance,
B.A.

Is one of the connectors yellow? If it is then it is for the SRS system - they have a pressure switch to tell if there is someone sitting in the seat.

Cheers,
Shawn

I am refering to the drivers seat, not the passenger seat. Why would the drivers seat have a sensor, why would it go off if no one is sitting in it. It would make more sense for the passenger side to have one, since if no one is sitting in the passenger seat there is no point in it going off.

I will do some checking at work today - I think the second generation air bag systems had pressure sensors to tell how heavy a person was to determine how fast to deploy the air bag in the event of a collision, but I may be wrong on that.

how about you tell us what car they came off of... then you can get a power seat controller for that year car... then you can do the custom wiring it will take to install that switch... not too bad, should take a few hours if you know what you are doing...

Im pretty sure only ES300s came with heated leathers. I believe none of the Camrys did. Maybe Avalons? not sure.

I highly doubt a Gen3 would have that.

Trace the wires - could be for the seat belt buckle switch. That and the power connector were the only two I could find in the wiring diagram this morning at a quick glance. how many wires are there in the connectors?

i have leathers in my 93 xle and theres no heat. just power on the driver side.

AMScamrySE · 01-23-2004, 07:35 PM

The seats came out of a 92 XLE

yeah then its power seating, and the seat belt sensor, which should just plug in to the one you have there already...

I knew it was a power seat, why would I be asking if my seat was power or not.

The original question was where can I find the harness, and does anyone have one.
