my electric chair has died

[banjostu]

all of a sudduen my electric drivers seat has stopped working ! the heater on it still works but it refuses to move, the manual states that although there is a fuse they rarely blow and so are not as accesable as the others any thoughts on this one please folks

[arbee]

are both seats on the same fuse? does the other one work?

[banjostu]

seperate fuses the other one works fine

lol - thats my expertise used up! - have you checked it just in case?

[sjjw]

My C70 had the same & the culprit was a small spring which actuates a relay within the seat. This is a common fault & as such an easy fix but access may be a problem, requiring the seat to be removed!

wire may be trapped stopping seat moving but blows fuse to protect motor/mechanism. worth a look

[dreadly]

I had the the same problem.
Had to take drivers seat out, and found the mentioned spring as come off. Problem is though, the little plastic bit that holds the one half of the spring on as snapped off. So have to a little mod to attach it tomorrow.

as the seats are out. Its worth giving a car a good clean inside. Its mad what falls down in between them.
