Power Seat Track: Description

The eight-way power seat options include a single electrically operated power seat track unit located under the drivers seat. The power seat track unit replaces the standard equipment manual seat track. There are three reversible motors that operate the power seat adjuster. The motors are connected to worm-drive gearboxes that move the seat adjuster through a combination of screw-type drive units. The lower half of the power seat track is secured at the front with two bolts to the floor panel seat cross member and at the rear with two bolts to the floor panel. Four fasteners secure the bottom of the seat cushion frame to four studs on the upper half of the power seat track unit.

The front and rear of a seat are operated by different motors. They can be raised or lowered independently of each other. When the center seat switch is pushed in the Up or Down direction, both the front and rear motors operate in unison. The forward-rearward motor is operated by pushing the center seat switch in the Forward or Rearward direction, which moves the entire seat in the selected direction on all models.

Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit breakers must not be allowed to continue or the motors may be damaged. Make the necessary repairs.

The power seat adjuster and motors cannot be repaired and are serviced only as a complete unit. If any component in this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire power seat adjuster and motors assembly must be replaced.
