Help,
My electronic seat seat is dead. I can't move the set forward. All the rest work, up/down, lumbar, etc....just not forward. It goes back, but not forward. My kids keep playing in the car, and I don't think I'll be able to reach the wheel soon! Where can I find a direct replacement switch?

Local junk yard?

You can get brand new ones from Classic Industries. I just checked and it looks like they have an OEM switch (a little more) and a generic version. In these cases, you might even be able to find the part at a local parts store.

Thanks for the suggestions, yet, the one's available at Classic Industries, Rock Auto, Eckard, etc.. are all a different style than mine. I have three separate gray switches, without a the joystick. Not sure if anyone makes it from the other posts I've seen on here. Maybe a junkyard.

The switch you're looking for (gray with separate switches) is part number 16805149 but it was discontinued several years ago. You may still be able to find it someplace like ebay.

However, the wiring harness connector is the same for both the separate switch and the joystick versions, so you should be able to use the joystick version as a replacement.

Mine did the same thing. In my case the switch was fine. There's a plug under the seat which was corroded and one of wires on the power side broke. I used a drill battery with some alligator clips to supply power to the seat and everything worked fine. So i just cut the bad connector out and used butt connectors instead. Worked like a charm. I did have to unbolt the seat to have adequate room to work but it was no big deal. Good luck.

I pulled a used switch off a parts car. But found my switch was corroded. Jiggled the wires a few times and it fixed the problem. It is hard to get your hands in there and it took quite a few times of intervention.

So far hasn't reoccurred.
