Default Adjusting seat

Is there a way to manually adjust my non op drivers seat? 2000 Vanden Plas. Maybe if I knew where the relay was I wouldn`t need to do it manually. Any help is appreciated.

Welcome to the forum danhh3737,

I've moved your question from Jaguar Forums Feedback & Suggestion Centre to X308 forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Graham

None that I know of reasonably, but check here for a new motor... https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...5/#post1449564 ...Dave had 3 versions available last I was there, very good service.
You may want to put your vehicle in your Signature and could you be more specific...is that St Petersburg Russia or Florida? ...this is a worldwide forum.

When you say it won't adjust does that mean in any direction or have you just lost movement in a specific mode. You might try swapping out the seat control modules between the drivers and passenger seats. They are the same module and are interchangeable. If that restores the lost movement let us know and we can refer you to someone who repairs them.

I am in St Pete Florida.. I have changed the modules R/S still works, L/S still doesn`t. Motors are likely OK. I can`t imagine all of them failing at the same time. I think its a fuse or relay or perhaps more than one. The trouble is ,there are no ID labels on the inside covers of the fuse-relay boxes. I say shame on FOMOCO! I visually checked all 90 or so fuses but I have actually had fuses fail by cracking with no burn looking fine but no good (only once in my life) Thsnks for your input and thanks for any addl. suggestions you might have. Also, if anyone knows how to access the screws at the rear of the track, I`d like to know so I can install a known working control switch. I don`t really think this is the problem but I got it cheap enough, but I need to remove the seat to replace it. and can`t access the screws. PLEASE HELP !!
