Why are seat electric questions like voodoo ? Posted by vtsnaab [Email] (#26) [Profile/Gallery] (more from vtsnaab) on Mon, 17 May 2010 11:15:37 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My confession: I am plain old terrified of 'frankenseat syndrome'.
I have good reason to be - the driver's side seat in my '94 Aero works, or doesn't whenever it seems to 'feel like it'.
I pulled the fuse.
No way am I going 70 on the interstate and suddenly being contorted by frankenseat with no recourse. Not happening.
I've asked about the seat controllers here and much to my amazement gotten zero response - as if nobody knows nuttin about dat.
Unbelievable - here ?
There's more Saab knowledge here than any one HUGE Saab shop on the planet !!!
So here's what I really, really would like to know, if anyone here actually knows these things and is inclined to educate me:
1 - Is there a way to simply eliminate the seat memory controller part and have plain old electric seats WITHOUT changing the entire seat bottom assembly ?
2 - Confirmation that there is ONE memory controller for BOTH front seats that definitely lives under the driver's seat ?
3 - Is there any way to get to the nasty thing without dismantling the seat ?
Right now and most days my drivers seat is immobile with or without the fuse in.
I really like the idea of lobotomizing goofy things like this but it seems like nobody here has done this or knows much about it ?
There was someone who held one aside for me for a while but then he got an offer on those seats so he sold it instead.
I really would prefer not to pay for a part I consider superfluous if there is any reasonable way to eliminate it instead.
Thanks for any help or education !
