Go to your local GM dealer and if your real nice, one of the tech's will let you make a copy of the wiring diagram from his tech manual. The Hayne's manuals that you can buy on e bay or auto zone also have electrical schematics but from my experience are not always accurate. The heated seats in the Silhouette were prone to failure from side seat flexing. Your's probably doesn't work because the heating element itself is damaged. The new replacement elements do not cover the side seat area, do not flex, and therefore will not have this failure. I have been told that the upper heating elements are OK but are wired in series with the bottom element. If one open's the circuit then neither one will heat. Good luck.

How do you fix drivers side window for a 1997 olds silhouette?

I have a 2000 oldsmobile and i had this problem with the drivers side. come to find out it was the switch and not the motor. If you check with a local junk yard you can pick up a good one for half the cost. I did replace the window motor but it still didnt work. i recommend the switch first then if that doesnt fix it then invest in teh window motor. save urself some money.
