Hi, i just got 2012 infiniti m37, it's registered as flooded, but ewerithing works fine, engine ,transmission, lights, information panel, except left seat, i removed Seat Heater Control Module from left seat it was damaged by water (CONTROL ASSY 285651MA0B), i have to change it, i live in Republic of Georgia, there is no infiniti dealer here and can't find that part here, can anyone advice or suggest me where to buy it, i found oem part but it's too expensive for me , if anyone knows where to buy used infiniti m37 controller assy please message me, someone said to me that will fit nissan parts too, and really nissan and infiniti have axectly the same part number, so does it mean that nissan part will fit to my infiniti? thanks a lot.

 

Depending on how flooded the car was (im guessing pretty bad)… that module won't be your only problem,,, sooner or later sensors will go and other electronic things. As for that module, best advice is to look online. Good luck

 

Unfortunately, water damage is probably the worst case scenario when salvaging a vehicle. There is no telling of what might have been damaged or shorted out with the flooding. These cars have a hefty amount of electrical equipment. I would suggest searching for parts online. Rockauto will have cheap replacement pieces. Probably not everything you need. Craigslist will have parts once in a blue moon. Check for part out's on the forums. Car-part.com might help too!

 

What they said. The real damage doesn't show until later when wires and components begin to corrode out and issues begin to really rear their head.
