Default How to clear/remove annoying DTC code

How can I clear a code B1038:15-0A from the FCIM? It's a seat heater code, and I don't have heated seats. I upgraded to BLIS, new harnesses, door modules, window/mirror switch etc. so it's looking for something I don't have. Ideas?
Everything works, no red dash lights, just want to get rid of the error.
Also, no memory seat button.

I would think that you go into the bcm or climate control module and disable the heated seat feature.

I suggest you try revising FCIM PID address 7A7-01-01 to "xxxx 0xxx xxxx" which is no climate controlled seats front or rear. The "x" indicates leaving the existing value in place.

That's what it's already set to.
