Well now I know why people have manual seats

When I got Avril she was needing a little TLC and all bits sorted , but didn't realise the electric seats have tilt aswell as height, just put on toaf and getting tilt relay fault.

Anyone able to help me on this one please?

Presumably the tilt is not working on one seat only ?

There are 4 motors on the electric seats and the one that controls the backrest tilt is the furthest back towards the rear of the car suggest you might start there and check the wiring

Thanks for the info. Would make sense as the srs light came in the same time the tilt stopped working. Sorted the srs never thought about the tilt.
