Adjuster Motor






REMOVAL

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

NOTE: The fore/aft power seat motor cannot be adjusted or repaired. If the fore/aft power seat motor is inoperative or damaged, the entire seat track assembly must be replaced.

- Locking pawl (2) loose
- Locking pawl (2) engaged into the seat frame sidemember (1)
- Height adjuster only works on outboard side
- Broken or missing shear pin (3)
If any of above symptoms exist, replace the seat track assembly. Do not attempt any repairs. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
