Default Power Mirrors/Heated Seat issues

I have a 1994 Volvo 850 wagon base model where neither the power mirrors or the heated seats are working. I checked the fuse and it is good any other ideas to check before calling in a mechanic? Thanks.

Power mirror failure can be the switch or the mirror motors. I personally lost a mirror motor. I would work your switch really good from all directions to see if you can get any movement. From there you'll need to test voltage.

As for the heated seats, it is very common for the lower section to break somewhere in the seat. Usually from making contact with the cross bars or from people kneeling on the seat. Either way you can usually repair it by taking it apart and attaching the broken are back together. Easily identified by the burn marks. I have fixed three seats over the years.

Thanks will try also seeing where I should remove switches and clean contacts in case of spillage.
