Elite Seats - Drivers not working?
« on: 01 September 2015, 17:50:20 »
Just tried to put seat in another setting for MrsT, no worky  :(

Passenger seat moves fine, both bottom and back. But drivers seat has nothing, won't slide back or forwards or recline, none of memory options work.  :-\

Almost as if it has no power, blown fuse?  :-\

Should add it does not recline either, so not usual something stuck in rails.

Check one of the plugs hasn't come out under the seat. If they are ok check there is power getting to them.

Plugs look fine, as far as I can see. Checked the fuses, all good.

Windows, mirrors etc all work. Just nothing on drivers seat. Rear footwells always kept very clear, so can't see anything trapping or pulling cables.  :-\

I would pull the plugs out and check for voltage to them,and go from there.

A 12v bulb with wires attached might suffice.  ;)

F5 and F12

F5 being more likely, as F12 affects the entire world and his dog

Electric seats in the 2.5 never worked when i bought it , sprayed the worm screw thing underneath the seat with penetration spray left it then came back a while later and they both worked  :)

Fixed. Loom connector was loose, decided to give them all a wiggle and one just fell out. Popped it back in, with a nice healthy click. It's all working again.  :)

MrsT pleased as she can take 3.2 tomorrow  :)

Does she hate your 2.2 as much as everyone else? ;D


Glad its sorted. Generally bombproof, so rare for anything other than fuse or loom fault.

She likes the autobox, plus not keen on 2.2's hand brake. Too stiff apparently, but it works fine for me.  :D

Used 3.2 today, I'm starting to get attached to the gas guzzler  ::)

Need to schedule that car work weekend, sort that dead tappet and it might be ready for LPG....... one day  ::)
