Hey guys,
I reclined my driver side seat during my lunch break, when I went to put it back up, it wouldn't budge.
I did some research on the forum, it seems like most people either had the switch go out or the motor, the seat goes forward and back just fine, could it just be the switch that reclines the seat?

 

Can you spray the switch and motor with CRC Electronics cleaner before wrenching?

 

I will, I left work early and was actually going to take it by my local Nissan dealership and give them $100 to diagnose it but it decided to start working on the way there so it's staying in the position it's in for now and I'm not going to touch it until I have time to mess with it more.
Thanks for the reply.

 

My bottom motor is picky. I can feel it clicking as it slides so I know it is only a matter of time before it quits. When I reach either end it will twist the seat and sometimes it wont move again after you move it.

 

I imagine mine is slowly losing it's life too, it's seen a lot of use in 10 years so I have to hand it to it, it's lasted a lot longer than I would have imagined.
Hopefully, a shot or two of CRC will prolong it's life until I have time to replace it.

 

My driver seat did the same; got reclined back. Turned out the switch was bad. I accessed the back of the seat where the power connection is. The back of the seat is accessed by unzipping the seat cover. Find the connection & connect to a 12v power supply. I ran wires from a battery I had laying around. I had to play around w/ the polarity, but I was able to get the seat inclined in an upright position.
