Default 2010 f150 heated seat problem

Hi All,
I have a problem with my drivers side seat. When I turn the seat warmer on the light will stay lit for a second and then turn back off. Is there a relay or something that I should be looking for on this or could it be a bad wire somewhere under the seat?
Thanks for any and all info, its appreciated!

Heating element is burnt out. Fairly easy to do yourself. The heating element is under $30 but the dealer will charge about $300. I did mine in about an hour, taking my time and cleaning the truck while the seat was out.

I think it's one of the easiest repairs you will ever have to do lol.

I did both of mine at the same time and was very glad. The other seat even though it worked was burning the seat just as bad and possibly worse. I was pretty surprised at how burnt it was.

I went a winter without doing it. When I finally installed it in the spring, I kicked myself for not doing it earlier. It's very easy.
