Removal Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. If one side of the seat adjuster is not working, perform the following procedure:
    1. The horizontal drive motor (1) and the drive cables (4) are located at the front of the seat. Verify that both cables are straight. If a cable is bent, an end will be pulled out of the drive motor or the drive screw. Straighten the cable. The seat switch may have to be toggled back and forth to get the cable ends to seat properly.
    2. Run the seat forward until the seat removal bolts are accessible.
