Default 2006 Jaguar XK8 Power Seat Problems

I have had problems with the power seats in my jaguar off and on. Recently, my passenger reclined his seat and now it will not go back up. I can still move it forward and back, up and down, and the head rest still moves up and down. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I do believe I just spent way to much getting the heaters working in both seats again. Seems like everytime I ask the dealer to fix a seat, some capability no longer works. Help! Paula

Welcome to the forum Paula.

Most of the time this is a very common seat module fault, and can be repaired yourself if you have some basic soldering skill, or have a friend with some soldering skill, or take it to a local electronics repair guy. The plastic case wears away one or two circuit board traces at the edge of the circuit board. You carefully solder a thin wire to repair the copper traces or add a wire to replace the traces.
