Abstract: A fault in a thermoelectric device is detected by: applying a voltage across the thermoelectric device; ceasing to apply the voltage after a predefined period of time; measuring a Seebeck voltage Vs across the thermoelectric device; comparing Vs to a first threshold voltage VT; and creating a record of a fault if Vs is below VT. The thermoelectric device may be a Peltier heating or cooling device within a vehicle seat. The voltage applied may be the normal pulse width modulated (PWM) control signal applied to the seat heating system, with the Seebeck voltage measured during the periods of the PWM signal when the device is switched off. The method may also measure the temperature at one end of the thermoelectric device and calculate the temperature at the other end from the measured Seebeck voltage. The calculated temperature compared to a threshold indicates a fault e.g. an open circuit.
