Default Disco II - Bun Warmer Nightmare!

Hi, all. New to the forum; I drive a '99 Disco II that just hit 100,000 miles this weekend. I live in one of the coldest parts of the country and it is unbearable. Luckily, my car comes equipped with bun warmers, right?

That is until my driver side warmer failed, sometime over the weekend, too. There are two buttons, one for each warmer, in the middle console. The button for the driver's side is no longer lighting up. The other one does, and gets warm.

I was hoping this would be something easy, like a fuse, but the fuse controls both warmers and some other things, too, all of which are working. I popped the faceplate off the console and it looks like it wouldn't be too terribly difficult to unscrew that panel and check for maybe a bad connection behind the button? I'm not sure what else to look for. Any advice?

Thanks.

I would look under the drivers seat for a fuse and or relay. I would also check the fuses under the steering column, one of them should be burned.

Other fuses besides the main which Mike suggests, but definately check for a loose connection at the button. I have found the connectors aren't the best...swap them and test that way....should be a quick way to eliminate the issue.
