the oil is most likely used for sensing when people are seated and the "motor" is just a pressure reader (because its way too tiny to be a motor strong enough to do anything) it being the cooling is also not probable since it had only one tube, therefore no flow of the liquid

That “motor” is actually a sensor that reads the pressure of the oil. When a person sits in the seat the pressure on the bladder compresses the oil so the system knows when there is someone in the seat for seatbelt warnings as well as passenger airbag on and off.

The liquid in the seat is to detect when someone is sitting in the seat. When you sit on it, it increases the pressure and triggers the pressure switch which is the black box with electrical connectors on the end of the tube. Love the videos - keep them coming please!

The gel is for the cooling seat! Whenever you turn the cooled seat on the motor turns on and pumps the gel through the seat to cool it! The motor may seem small but it has a very easy job. The gel acts like one of those ice packs you get in first aid kits. Whenever there is heat and pressure it starts to become cold. Your but is the heat and the pressure!

[@dirkdiggler4860]

Im guessing the oil is for when someone sits there it puts it under pressure and that little box is a pressure sensor that needs so much pressure b4 the airbag goes off. Or it is for the seatbelt dinger. It seems alot better than just a switch under there that could be set off by take out or a case of pop. I know my seatbelt dinger goes off if I put something 20lbs or so on the seat

The softness part might be the answer. I know with the Model 3 the seat warmers are an option you can literally download to upgrade. I wonder if this is just some unused option that was built in.

That gel bladder is the sensor for the seat belts... Like you know when you sit your butt down on the seat the car know is? Yeah.. if you sit on the seat the oil builds pressure and at the end that black 'box' is the pressure sensor telling the car someone is sitting there

[@ghedgepath]

My 2010 Prius had a sensor switch underneath for seat pressure. It got wet and fried. the seat would have had to be taken apart to fix it. The bladder is a better idea.

[@LiamLowery-m3p]

I build high end automotive seats for a living. The bladder with oil in it is for sensing the presence of a person. he little box attached to it is a reader. The passenger has one as well. The passenger seat is connected to the air bag system and if it does sense a person the airbags will not deploy.

I googled the Part number of the thing with the gel line (time reference 10:51 ) its a tesla presence sensor, my guess is to make the seat belt alert go off if a person is detected in the seat.

The liquid in the plastic pouch in the seat is for American car passenger seats only, to detect weather there is a child, child seat or adult in the seat, and therefore determine weather to seat of the passenger dash airbag in an event of a crash. A very complicated and clever system

It’s a Delphi ( they have recently changed their name to aptiv ) pods - d system. It weighs the occupant and will enable or disable the airbag it can also changed how the airbag is set of but it depends on if the OEM has paid for that. They are only fitted to North American passenger seats. The rest of the world uses a much more basic system that is basically a switch. The thing they called a motor is not a motor it’s the ecu that measures the changed in pressure of the oil
