Heated seat fire

[bmwpower]

What's in the door panel, behind that burn mark?
Could it have started in the door??

aww shit man! i'm sorry, that looks aweful!!!

[AlarmedBread]

seat shock oil = torch?

[TexasTerp]

That is not an electrical fire. I know you keep saying that "that's the only thing that makes sense" but sadly it definitely has nothing to do with the heated electrical system in the seat.

[Streichholzschächtelchen]

You have someone that doesn't like you cuz that's for sure not a heated seat issue.

[IRON-E]

Thats weird. Doesn't look like a spontaneous electrical fire. If it was an electrical start, you should be able to take apart the items and find the ignition point. Maybe get your local fire/arson guy to look at it. :???:

+1^^^^^^^, Spontaneous combustion is supposed to only happen if different chemicals have been mixed and left out to dry in by the elements.

you're being targeted by a stupid-ass assassin, be careful and check for a banana in your exhaust next time you try to drive it.

Well sir, I'm sorry. Did it damage the top?

[bmwpower]

Wow.

How did you put it out? Did you take things apart yet?

That weird. There should be nothing in the bolster that would do that.

My vert windows could be pulled out enough to drop a cig butt in there. Might not want to discount that.

It kinda looks like it started at the speaker in the door. Was that an aftermarket installation...?

There is no speaker in the door. They're in the kicks. It definitely started in the bolster.

[z31maniac]

But then again, why would they have voltage if the car was off...

Sucks.

That's what happens when wire's short. Shit happens that isn't supposed to happen.
