Turned out to be the memory switch. Disconnected it and the seat moved fine, put in a replacement and it's back to how it should be.... The manual seats in the Saab do not have the same range of height & tilt adjustments as the electrics. I'd love to see my wife's reaction if I suggested that she had to move the seat with a socket before being able to drive the car! Even with occasional gremlins I'll stick with the electrics any day.... David "Four Weis" <mweinopsamcom> wrote in message news:3D8CDEE8.CCAA6ABAnopsamcom... > Thats why I like manual seats.
