I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM,I KNOW THE GEARS ARE BAD BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY REPLACEMENT PARTS. ANYBODY GOT ANY IDEAS?

boot wont unlock pergut 307

I am working on a replacement motor that will come with a new gear/shaft on it. I have one of my setups in the car right now and have the parts for another one ordered. I hope to make a video of the repair in a couple weeks when the parts show up. Still uses plastic gears, but these are larger, more durable gears and the swap is fairly straight forward with just a few modifications.

it souns like the switch on the seat has stopped working or the motor itself has gone bad I would check the switch first

Either the switch is bad, or the motor athat goes forward and back is bad. A mechanic will need to check it with a diagram to determine which.

HI. There are only two causes for this particular issue. The most common will be a failed switch assembly. This should be located on the side of the drivers seat. This switch is responsible for transferring the movement commands to the actual motor/gear assembly, which is located on the rail structure under the seat in question. If your lumbar section is responding to commands, but the others fail, this will lead to a failed switch circuit. the entire switch board will need to be replaced, in this case.

Now, if you command the set to move forward, and all you hear is the motor running , but no movement, this will lead to a failed gear assembly. This will be the second cause of no forward/backwards movement. In this case, the entire motor/gear assembly will need to be replaced, due to the fact that the gears are not sold separately. The are shipped as a kit with the motor.


It is required that you order this type of replacement part directly from the dealership.

• NOTE_ I have seen in most cases that the there was jam, due to pieces of the gear assembly breaking off, and jamming up the mechanism. in order to properly inspect for damage of this nature, it will be necessary to remove the seat.

i have a caddilac cts and my passenger seat does not work anyone has an idea on what it can be?

Try swapping motors not brushes,maybe the motors are the same just in diffrent positions,it wouldnt be cost effective to have diffrent motors for the same job just diffrent positions,im tipping they will be the same pull seat out or lookcarefully in the car to see

it can only be 2 things, either the switch is bad or the motor in the transmission is bad, both parts are a common failure so u must test each to determine which is at fault, do u have a 12 volt test light? if not get one, about $6 from any parts store like Kragen, Autozone and others, raise the seat as high as possible and disconnect the motor that is inop, (be careful not to break the connector locks) push the switch to operate that motor in one direction (up for this test), the test light should light, then move the test light to the other terminal of the connector and press the switch for down, again the test light should light, if the lights go on as described then the motor is the problem and if they don't the switch is the problem.

the motor or gear has went bad...the only fix is to replace the seat track assembly...the motors are not available from chrysler

After months of looking I found a shop who was willing to make me some brass gears. I put the brass gear in both my 2002 Park Ave seats. They work great. I sell them for 100 apiece. [email protected]
