Xantia Electric Seat Passenger Stuck

Unread post by gadgetgricey »

Well not totally stuck, but will only move about 4 inches back and forth, before something stops it moving.
Its close to the front of its travel, but no where near the back of its travel.

Due to this can see the rear securing bolts, but the front ones are hidden under the runners themselves.

Any suggestions tricks on what can be done,or known issues on what could have happened??

Thanks again

try loosening the rear bolts a bit dave.. may be an alignment issue.. loosen them and see it moves better before retightening..

bit of grease?

Had this issue with Manual Seats. After a LOT of brutal messing, I found a mashed 20p piece in the runner...

I found the offending coin again last week in my shed suprisingly..

What I was gonna say if you had NO electrical movement was check the wires to the back of the switches.. Ive know a join to fail in the back before now...
