The drivers seat in my 94 E320 wagon is not working correctly. BTW, just bought the car and that is how it came from the PO.
The motors clicked with switch actuation, so I believed the switches good but the motors binding.
Nothing would move however so I removed the seat and found the seat back motor to have a bent shaft (the shaft going through the bosch motor). This is the only motor with a geared end instead of the cable type.
Anyone know where to source this motor besides the dealer?
Could not figure out how to get the entire slider off to check the other position adjustments, so I checked all the cables and they looked good. Then I hooked up my drill to the cables and all worked fine except that the tracks are binding about 1/3 of the way up from the full back position. At 5'7", I really need about 2 more inches. =)
Anyone know a better way to get a look at the track and why it is jammed? Maybe a coin stuck in there or something but I can't get a good eye on it.
Thanks
