I found the same condition on both of my 94 coupes.

We have a 1999 US XK8. The left drivers seat when I hit the seat saved position, the seat moved all the way forward and the seat back moved forward as well, pushing me into the steering wheel! I can’t find a circuit breaker that’s bad, nor do the control modules look bad. Is there any thing else I can do to avoid the shop?

DougSDPD625,

You've posted in the XJS section. I suspect you'll get a better response posting in the XK8 / XKR (X100) section.

Good luck

Paul
