Remote start seat heat?

[Paul Gagnon]

The steering wheel was warmish (it never really gets hot…)
Our outside temp is 0* c
(32 f)
Once inside the truck and I push the start button, the seats warm up…

I don't think 0 is cold enough for the heated seats to come on in auto. At least that was my experience.

I think my F350 will turn on the seat heaters on remote start around 30f (~ -1c)

Okay, that might be what’s going on…
I’ll see what happens when it gets colder out.
Thanks!

This is incorrect, my heated seats and steering wheel will turn on with remote start even during a 60 degree day. It does not have to be that cold. It hasnt been that cold in TX since I received my Wildtrak a month ago and it has literally done this every time I start the car in the mornings. And on average it has been between 50 and 70 degrees almost every morning. During the warmer part of the day, tested yesterday just now at 75 and 79 degree ambient temperature outside, no seat warmer turned on.

If similar to Chevy trucks with command start, the seat heaters won't come on automatically until it's -10C or colder.
