The following components secure the front
seats to the floor pan:
• | Two front hook attachments |
• | Two rear bolts installed to nuts that are welded to the floor
pan |
The manually operated 2-way front adjusters provide only fore and aft
movement of the seat. The seat adjuster handle is located on the front side
of the seat. When the seat adjuster handle is pulled up, the seat adjusters
unlock. This action permits travel of the seat. When the seat is in the
desired position, and the seat adjuster handle is released, the seat locks
in place.
The power operated 6-way seat adjuster (driver's side only) is activated
by 3 motors with the following characteristics:
• | Permanent magnet motors |
• | Built-in circuit breaker |
A switch mounted on the seat cushion outer trim panel energizes the
motors.
The 3 motors drive the following components:
• | A front vertical actuator |
• | A rear vertical actuator |
When the adjusters reach the limit of travel, torque is absorbed through
the rubber mounted grommets. The grommets are located between the motor and
the support. The circuit provides an overload relay if you apply excessive
torque to the motor.
Removal Procedure
- Remove the seat adjuster
covers (2), if equipped. The covers snap onto the seat adjusters in
the front and rear.
- Position the front seat
assembly forward in order to gain access to the seat adjuster attaching bolts.
- Remove the seat adjuster attaching bolts.
- Remove the seat belt wire
harness (driver's side only).
- Disconnect the power seat electrical connector, if equipped (driver's
side only).
- Remove the front seat.
Manually tilt the seat forward in order to disengage the hooks from the floor
pan.
Installation Procedure
- Install the front seat.
Manually tilt the seat forward in order to engage the hooks onto the floor
pan.
- Connect the power seat electrical connector, if equipped (driver's
side only).
- Install the seat belt
wire harness (driver's side only).
- Position the front seat
assembly forward in order to gain access to the seat adjuster attaching bolts.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the seat
adjuster bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the seat adjuster bolt to 40 N·m (30 lb ft).
- Install the adjuster covers
(2), if equipped.
