I just completed a project that changed my seats from 2 way power seats to 8 way power seats - it was quite a project.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I removed the passenger seat from a 2001 Boxster S and found an "unused" connector as in attached picture. I did not see any obvious place to plug it in under the seat. What is the purpose of this connector and where does it go?

POST 2Original post

Quotes source post: 637339

I just completed a project that changed my seats from 2 way power seats to 8 way power seats - it was quite a project. Going by memory, that looks to me like it’s possibly a plug from heated seats.

POST 3Original post

That is the plug for the airbag deactivation bar.
