Have mu swap project on hold but will certainly have this issue as my 75 is mk2 and leather seats from an mk1... when you guys say "hardwire" what do you mean exactly? (Changing wires for new ones or just connect the wires doing whatever is necessary on them?)... pictures very much welcomed!!

Well thanks to this excellent how to, I now have electric leather seats in my 75, replacing the manual cloth ones that came with the car
It's posts like this, which make the £10 subscription fee, worth every penny Massive thanks Rick. Last edited by Roverpip; 11th June 2017 at 18:43.. |

Problem with memory seats
Hi,
I have fitted memory seats to my 2004 ZT-T which had normal non powered seats fitted. Using your excellent 'How to' I made up a loom and fitted the seats. Only difference to your wiring guide was I fitted a relay to a switched live. First the good news - the passenger seat works as advertised. The problem is that the driver's moves forwards and back (in a jerky motion) but the seat will not recline or raise/lower. I have not wired in the K-bus in your experience could this be the problem or is it because the unit is not permanently powered? Any advice would be appreciated because I'm driving around at the moment hunched over the steering wheel |

Memory seat problem....
Further to my last I have now wired in the K-Bus and when I press the memory button I get a ping noise but unfortunately the driver's still only goes backwards and forwards (still jerky) but does not go up or down or recline or raise itself.
Could the problem be the switch? Help Thanks, Simon |

Hi Simon,
Sorry only just seen your replies to this thread. To me it sounds lie either an issue with your wiring or the motors on your seat are faulty. Try testing the seat directly to a car battery first. If the seat works fine when tested directly to a battery then you'll know its an issue with the wiring |

The k-bus is only for registering the memory function, it doesn't affect the operation of the seat. I hadnt connectrd5my kbus wire at first and the seats worked fine

Successfully used the instructions here to get my electric seats up and running - thanks!
But I seem to have introduced a K-bus error - no indicator tell-tales, aircon “Er” reading, central locking not working, etc. As I had included the pin 6 connection to a K-bus wire behind the centre console, my first thought was that I must have made a mistake there, so I tried breaking the connection to pin 6. Unfortunately this hasn’t made any difference! I appreciate I’m probably getting into crystal ball territory, but any ideas what I could have done wrong?? There’s been minimal disturbance to the existing wiring and I’m really not sure where to start looking. |

Is there a how to guide to just for the heated seats as someone has fitted the heated seats but they have manual adjustment.
