Functions

•  The steering warmer system warms the steering wheel by the heat from the steering warmer unit heating wires.
•  When the steering warmer system is operated for approx. 30 min, the voltage supplied to the steering warmer units is stopped by the timer in the steering warmer control unit and the steering warmer system operation is stopped.

Operation

1.  When the steering warmer switch is turned on with the ignition switched ON (engine off or on), the indicator unit sends (1) a steering warmer system operation request signal to the steering warmer control unit.

2.  When the steering warmer control unit receives the steering warmer system operation request signal from the indicator unit, it turns on (2) the FET.

3.  When the FET turns on, voltage is supplied (3) to the steering warmer units and the steering warmer units warm.

Note
•  When approx. 30 min have elapsed since the steering warmer timer was operated, the steering warmer control unit stops the steering warmer system operation.
