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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

When I bought my 2000 996 it had �comfort� multi-way power, heated seats. The driver�s seat had memory function. A few years ago I replaced those seats with 996 GT3 seats. At one point I thought about swapping the comfort seats back in for a time, and when I installed the seats, the driver side power did not work. I put the GT3 seats back in and sold the comfort seats. Long story short, I purchased a pair of used seats with power only for the seatback tilt. I took out the GT3 seats and put these in for the winter. Again, the driver�s side seat does not have the power function. Both seats have heat, and the passenger seat tilt works fine. So, I�m wondering how to get the power on the driver�s side to work. I checked various fuses and found no problems there. I hooked up my Durametric 6, and when I check the Seat Memory function I get the following message: Communications Error Unable to connect to this module. This may not be an indication of a problem if the car is not equipped with this control module. I get this message when I do anything in the Seat Memory section of the software (such as checking for faults). I guess the Durametric will not be able to do anything in this situation? I have seen some posts suggesting the dealer can do something with PIWIS. My current plan is to drive the car semi-regularly on the street with the regular seats. I have a Sparco halo seat for track weekends, so I want to be able to swap that seat in and out. It would be nice if I could make the swaps a few times a year without having the driver's seat power crap out. Any thoughts? And I may be offering a pair of nice GT3 seats for sale.
