2002 XK8 electric seat adjustment mystery: for & aft motor runs, seat does not move
Just bought this car; my 5th Jaguar. Still learning my way around. Issue: Driver's seat fore & aft motor runs, as well as back rake motor, but seat does not move. Passenger seat moves for & aft properly, but seat back rake
does not change. I have studied several U-Tube videos about removing seat, installing passenger side motor which works, but in the video, the motors are not interchangeable. I think the plastic/nylon gear is stripped. Seems
to me this is a common problem? Motors available on E Bay. I have checked fuses & all OK.
Other issue is that the cigar lighter & license plate lights do not work; installed new L.P. lights today(Old ones burned out) but still no lights. Cigar lighter fuse OK. Any suggestions? I have restored the following in past 5 years:
'49 MGTC, 2-MGB's, '79 Spitfire, & '86 Alfa Graduate.
