Heated Seats Shut Off in My 2005 Silverado

Heated seat problem on my 2005 Chevrolet Silverado. Driver seat module, driver door module, driver heat switch, driver whole seat swapped with a known good seat, body harness that goes to both driver and passenger seat, passenger bottom cushion and back heater element

, passenger heat switch, replaced seat heater circuit breaker by the brake pedal also reprogrammed driver seat module, driver door module, PCM , BCM.
Question I HAVE HAD A HEADACHE WITH THIS TRUCK ALREADY,,, I GOT A B2425 CODE WHICH IS LEFT FRONT SEAT HEATER CIRCUIT. I CAN PUSH THE DRIVER SEAT HEATER AND SOMETIMES IT WILL STAY ON FOR A LIL BIT AND SOMETIMES I CAN PUSH IT AND IT WILL TURN OFF RIGHT AWAY,,,BUT THE WEIRD THING IS I THINK THE PASSENGER SIDE WILL STAY ON ALL THE TIME TILL U HIT THE DRIVER SIDE,,,AND THE OTHER WAY ALSO WHEN U HAVE THE DRIVER SIDE ON AN GO TO PUSH THE PASSENGER SOMETIMES IT WILL KICK OFF...IS THERE ANY SUGGESTIONS U MIGHT HELP ME OUT WITH??

Since you have replaced all these parts already, and i assume the modules programmed with the latest software, then i think this bulletin may help...

Condition/Concern:
Driver and passenger heated seats inoperative or shut off in 30 seconds. There will be DTCs B2435, B2440, B3606 and/or B1825 set in the Drivers Seat Module. The adjustable pedal position sensor, seat recliner position sensor and both heat seat thermistors share the same 5 volt reference internal to the Drivers Seat Module. A fault in any of these components/circuits can make the heated seats inoperative or shut off in 30 seconds, as well as, the seat recliner and/or adjustment pedals may move in short increments when operated. A fault in heated seats, adjustable pedal or seat recliner will affect BOTH heated seats.

Note:: Even if the vehicle is not equipped with adjustable pedals DTC B3606 still may set.

Recommendation/Instructions:
To help isolate the area of concern use the Tech 2 and go to "Sensor Data" in the Drivers Seat Module. Monitor the following parameters for being out of range:

Recline Position- Normal range .39V-4.58V
Pedal Position (if equipped) - Normal range .39V-4.58V
Psgr. Seat Heat Sensor- Normal range 1V-4V
Drvr. Seat Heat Sensor- Normal range 1V-4V
If a parameter is found to be out of range inspect circuits for any opens, shorts to ground, or voltage. If none found replace the suspect component.

Please be aware of the following common areas of concern:
The adjustable pedal position sensor internally shorted pulling the 5 volt reference low. Disconnect the adjustable pedal position sensor and see if the heated seats start working correctly, if so replace.
Note Important:: The APP (Accelerator Pedal Position) sensor is NOT the adjustable pedal position sensor. Make sure the correct sensor, adjustable pedal position sensor, is disconnected.
The seat recliner position sensor internally shorted pulling the 5 volt reference low. Disconnect the recliner position sensor and see if heated seats start working correctly, if so replace.
