Requesting help for my power tilt seat

[Steve Tinker]

If monty's explanation doesn't work out, why don't you pull out the drivers seat (which I assume has a working tilt function) and compare both seat electrical connections? Its probably easier to do that than second guess what some previous owner has done or not done to the passenger seat wiring.

I just rewired a driver seat plug and his is correct. The left side with coding pin is power to the recline. Center is for optional equipment. The small blank black plug is a spacer, and the green plug is for the seat belt.

Images are blurry but worth 1000 words. This is driver side. driver seat belt receptacle has blue plug.




Back of plug.

Orangeman Don't know but if seat is still out you can test the motor by supplying 12 volts to the 2 pins by the coding pin. Supply 12v+ to one and 12v- to the other. Then switch polarity to reverse. It is important to not run motors in one direction too far as the track operates on some infinity loop. If you go too far either direction the Seat back release will not work.

OK, can someone tell me what this top white connector does?

Passenger side (non-functioning)



Nothing plugs into it on my passenger seat, but on my driver's seat, it has something plugged into it that runs back to the back of the seat, right where i would imagine an an electric tilt motor would go...

Driver's side (functioning)



All other connections look the same
