cb350 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Hi all, One of the switches on my seat has stopped working - I can still run the seat backwards and forwards, but the tilt no longer does anything. If I keep switching it, eventually it'll move, but I've had more success tilting it back than forwards, leading to a very relaxed-looking driving position! Does anyone have any idea how I can get to the wuring to test the switch and the feeds to/from the switch? Guessing it's a dodgy connection somewhere but having a lot of difficulty finding any wires! Thanks, Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 have you checked under the seat. There is a connector there. It can work loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb350 Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hmm.. yeah, I did - couldn't find it! Will have another look, obviously didn't look hard enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasha@lazytrips Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I have had this issue on a few occasions in the past. it is usually a switch issue, but could be the motor that drives it. I found that despite logic pointing to the contrary, I just moved the seat about as much as I could & pushed the recline to one of the extremes to make it work properly again. Once I stripped the whole thing and looked at it and the motor was just seizing up going one way, but not the other. Once I pushed it all the way to the end, it was very happy to work both ways again. Be careful though, as if you push it all the way and it doesn't recover, driving the car could prove a little difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
