The heated seat swithes should be green, then have amber light when activated. Dont try and fix them as they are a pain in the backside!! Best get a working set off a member. I take they still physicly function?

I've replaced   both  the  LED's   in   the switches , initially very fiddly  to remove   from the dash  and  even  more   fiddlier  to dismantle and  replace .  
 
  But if you    have   patience, a steady  hand and are good with a soldering iron  it's  possible.  
 
   You can  get the  wee  12v   LED's   from    Maplins .

the switches use filament blbs to illuminate, but i have installed LEDs now from some electric window switches
 
just a bit of soldering required to do it.
