Seat heater randomly turns on when I start the car

[jaspercarnevale]

It will not happen every time but maybe every 3rd or 4th time I start the car, the seat heater automatically turns on to full blast on the driver side. Does anyone know how to turn off this "feature"? It is still 95 degrees outside I definitely do not need the seat heater on.

If it's only the driver's side heater, I figure I accidentally trigger it when reaching for the Power button. Every so often. Damned capacitive switches.

This happens to me too sometimes. I was wondering if there was a fuse I could take out or otherwise disable it. Not something I'd ever use intentionally.

Looks like you have a choice, but I'd try "S/HTR" first.

It's in the fuse box under the steering wheel, to the left a little. The one you have to lay on your back to look at directly.

I removed 15A fuse due to accidentally pressing button. I learned to not do that. another choice: tape something to prevent pressing it.
