MIKEYMIKE · 07-20-2006, 03:38 PM

Yea, I'm an idiot...took my car to get a handwash and now I've got this loose wire located underneath the right hand back seat....

Anyone know what this is all about?

Wow u admitted it!! j/k bro everything aside k...no hard feelings K..

Anyhow to my knowledge dont we have some kind of speakers under our seats?? It looks like a light or speaker connect??

MIKEYMIKE · 07-20-2006, 03:52 PM

never had any hard feelings bro...

Hunter was asking if I had heated seats, which I don't...so we can rule that out. Plus...I dont think you can even get heated seats for the back seats anyways

Actually the cold weather package only has REAR heated seats!
my CA was trying to sell me on that with the xi that I ordered! But you dont have heated seats so it has to be speakers

I have the cold weather package, and it is my FRONT seats, not the rear, that are heated. Was the CA trying to tell you that they were in the rear?

I guess I gotta take a trip to the dealer if I can't get this figured out...

I believed it's just the electric wire that was hookup to a small battery during delivery for all E90.<to maintain some kinda' memory for computer or clock> All E90 have it, just been tug under the right rear seat.

I think thats a wire for battery monitoring/conditioning and emergency battery cut-off switch. The cable is run through to the trunk and a switch is positioned between the center console. This is during shipping only...

Is your seating functioning properly? My front passenger seat was not fully wired when I took delivery. In fact a similar wiring harness was under the seat and not plugged in. I corrected the issue myself.

It is coming from the rear seat.

Aw....

MIKEYMIKE · 07-20-2006, 06:00 PM

The front seat seems to be working fine...

I guess it's just a random wire used for shipping, I will call the dealership when I get a chance to ask about this.

Asiann · 07-20-2006, 06:11 PM

I wouldn't worry and just tuck it back under. I saw the same thing when I lifted the seat to clean and didn't think anything of it.
