Well i replaced the Heated Seat Switches + Relay, checked the wiring and connections and the Drivers Heated seat, STILL doesnt work.
 
Why does the offside headlight washer poise ready for action but not spray when it should?  have tried clamping the other hoses to screen/ nr side h/light washer and it just dribbles?

yes it can. The leather surfaces can be peeled away on both the seat botom and back revealing the heating pads.  
 
BTW how much does it cost you to fill the tank on that GMC Safari?

I had the blocked jets before right at the nozzle (not on my scorp) I used a small sewing needle, pressed it just into the hole and moved it round in a circle, activate the washer, repeat a few times, then reset the angle. Just be carfull that you dont jab it all the way in and either jam the needle or rip through the hose, gently does it! Helps if you have someone switch the washer on while your doing it, you do get sprayed some though but it is quicker.  
Of coarse, as I said, this was not on a scorp so someone may have better info for ya.

I've got my old manual passenger seat sitting in the garage.  Could take the heated pads out it for ya, and they work!!
 
Was going to strip it down and keep the leather anyway.
