SnowDrifter Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 '05 Tahoe LT So.. I never noticed it until I went to pull my driver's seat out today to replace the heating pads. I tried to raise the seat so I can get to all the plugs underneath, but the height adjustment doesn't quite work. The motor turns on on and makes a very small 1/8" adjustment in either direction, but then stops. I'm a bit confused at this one. Is there some relearn procedure or a starting point of where to look to get this thing working? I don't even know where to begin since the motor itself still works ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 It doesn't sound like it's stripping, the motor just turns off/stops moving like it's hit a stop ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 When I go up, the relay clicks off.

SnowDrifter Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 What do you mean? I just got the seat out and took a loot af the height motor. It's retracted all the way in to its lowest point. It has room to go up, but shuts off when it tries. No room to go down, but keeps trying ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boometro Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 what happened to my friends was similiar but front to back. the left side was about 1/4" off and tweaked the seat and the motor noticed the tension and stopped as to not damage itself. it was weird as all he did was move the seat all the way forward to clean under it. had to manually remove the one side and then align it properly. also make sure something is not lodged in there.

Skullz Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Something is binding up on it somewhere, like boom said where one side is slightly higher than the other or higher from front to back, you'll need to look closely and see where the bind is occuring. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
