This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, I moved my power, heated seat all the way forward to clean carpet while out for coffee and the seat won’t move back. I can’t drive it like this. I checked the fuses and they’re fine. I’ve been jiggling wires to no avail. Where exactly are power seat wires? What can I do? I don’t have many tools on me on me the moment. Any way to manually move the seat back? Thank you, thank you,...

Junkley, I don’t have the full power seats, but this thread on renntech might help you troubleshoot. https://www.renntech.org/topic/48741-full-power-seat-installation/ Hope this helps and good luck!

That did help. Thank you. I fixed it. The key was understanding that the controls send a signal to the memory control first. I pulled the fuse, cleaned contacts and it works. Thank you very much. I’ll buy you a post-covid beer.
