electric seat nightmare

mark d3 · 24th September 2011, 16:19

a week ago while at the four winds nano my electric seat jammed had the seat out to day its not to hard to remove the 8 13mm bolts as you wont get at the t50 torx mainly at the rear of the runners when it jams,the reason they failed was the plastic cog in the aluminum housing disintegrated locking the runner solid i had to cut the housing to wind it forward with a pointy nose pliers if you need to do this remove the front t50 bolt first you wont see it after you wind the seat forward i suspect i wont be the last this happens to so hopefully the not very good photos may help someone else

Glad you got it sorted Mark, I said the problem was with the cog not working. Now you know what I meant when I said it was pointless stripping it down at the nano.
