Some 2017-2019 Lincoln Continental vehicles may exhibit an inoperative heated steering wheel.
For vehicles equipped with adaptive steering, the steering effort control module (SECM) controls the heated steering wheel feature and is internal to the steering wheel. For vehicles not equipped with adaptive steering, the heated steering wheel module (HSWM) controls the heated feature and is separate from the steering wheel.
