I purchased a cvo heated hammock seat on eBay. Went to the dealer today for the required electrical harness and hooked it up but it does not appear to get very warm on either the high or low setting. I can barely even tell that it's warming. The seats in both my vehicles get hot! Can anyone tell me how warm the seat should actually get, thanks.
were you riding the bike or just have it parked? My seat definitely gets hotter the longer its on with the bike moving, when I first got it I had the bike in the garage and it didn't seem to get that hot.
I have the same seat and that sucker is warm. I never use the high position.
The way mine was factory wired I had to turn the aux switch on for it to work. I changed it so it was powered with the ignition. Make sure you have the power on to it. When my ex-gf would turn the rear on (when it was 70 out) I could feel the heat on my lower back. Mine gets used on low if it's below 45 degrees out or so.

I did the same, just parked in the garage. I'll take it out tomorrow for a ride and see what happens. There is power to the seat, thanks for all replies.
Once I got mine wired right, it takes about 10 minutes of riding for it to heat up. On high, it's like having your backside to a camp fire. Low comes in handy when/if you get stiff, cramps, or what ever... like heat therapy. Love this seat!
