hi all. well my passenger front seat has developed a fault. it wont tilt forward but is able to tilt back. lucky i picked up on this quick before the seat was tilted back to much. has anyone else had this kinda problem and does it mean a new seat :( or is there relays driving all the seats electronic functions? any info as always greatly apreciated :D

wanna add seat will go forwards and backwards and on the same button u can tilt and angle the whole seat as u guys will know and thats working fine too. its just the actual tilt of the back of the seat thats siezed to work wud tilt right back tho sadly would be stuck in that position as wouldnt be able to tilt back up lol so passenger seat would therefore be useless less ur planning on picking up alota freindly ladys and planning plenty of back lane stops hahahahaha

Its the little spring inside the switch. If you remove the whole module and then strip it to the circuit board, Remove the little balck joystick style switch, and with a softly softly approach, prise open the casing of it. The spring thingy has slipped to the side so just realign it. Either that or get a new one at maplin.
Reassemble and impress the ladies with your up and down action...

Sounds similar to a fault I had on my gold C70. Here's how I fixed it:

Ach - I didn't even consider there'd be a difference in seats. Good luck anyway and let us know if you get it all sorted.
