760 electric seat woes.

Post by RossJ »

Hello,
I am having problems with the rake adjustment on both driver and passenger seats. Essentially, only one side of each of the seats seems to engage - resulting in a 'twisted' sort of shape.
Has anyone experienced this problem and have an idea where/what needs fixing/adjusting?
THX

I know it's been a while since you posted your seat problem, but I'm having the same problem on a 940 and am wondering how you fixed yours.

I have an S90 with the same problem. From what I can tell, the motor itself is on one side and uses a cable (almost like a speedometer cable, if that makes sense) to transfer the spinning motion to the other side. My guess is the cable is either broken in the sleeve, or came disengaged from one side. I'll know more when I have a chance to take the seats out and get a better look.

If anyone has more knowledge about this, I'm sure some people on here would love to know.

Steven
