Hi everyone I'm new to the Jaguar brand. Just bought a 2001 XK8 with 38000 miles ,flawless...well sort of ...just one thing , I need a drivers seat module , seat will not incline. Any leads where or who I can go to


Thanks to all

 

There is a retired gentleman in SanDiego that has done a number of these for a very reasonable rate: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...d=2#post836115

If you seach, there are also DIY instructions on the forum. Your problem sounds like a broken track on the edge of the printed circuit board, which is extremely common.

PS: Please post in the 1996-2006 XK8/R section in the future. This forum is for the later models.

 

bobe,

I've moved this thread from XK/XKR 2006 - Onwards to XK8/XKR 1996-2006 forum.

This is the place to post questions about your model.

Thanks guys appreciate it.

 

Here's what the inside of the Seat Module looks like:



As Steve says in post #2, the regular fail is a broken track which can easily be fixed by flowing solder across the break.
