I found a 2014 XF (X250) at a pick a part wreckers and pulled the drivers seat from it because I want to turn it into lounge chair. Only problem is the seat is partially tilted/reclined forwards. Just enough where it's not comfortable to sit in.

Does anybody know a way to manually recline the seat back or a wire I could power with a drill battery to get it back into a normal sitting position?
Ideally I'd love to be able to make it so I could always adjust the reclining but I know only the basics when it comes to electronics. Thank you for any assistance.

Wiring diagram might help you to sort it out; this was posted in another thread by a forum member.

 

Hi did you get this sorted I have the same problem

 

Yeah mate. Bit difficult to explain in text so here's a video so I can just point at what I did.
And if you got any other questions, let me know.

 

Thanks mate will try that today 👍
