Power seat wont work

I thought it might be a fuse under the dash drivers side against the firewall. Is it not a fuse that would operate the electrick drivers side seat? what else is it?

Big problem with these cars is the electrical connector behind the driver seat on the floor. Son of a gun to open use a small screw driver and be careful. They must closetightly and hold. 90% of time the terminals are loaded with corrosion. Remove battery power from the vehicle and either clean them or replace them. If that doesn't work pull seat cushions out and test the switch. Use shop manual for this
simple test. Either check the switch for resistance or remove the switch from the electrical connectors and jump the terminals with a jumper wire to see if you get the seat motor to move. If it does you need a new switch if it doesn't you need a new motor. Shop manual may have another way to test this with the switch in place. Here you are measuing for continuity.
This is fun stuff . good luck &keep me posted

Driverside seat wont move ,stuck in farthest back position

The fuses for the seat are shared with other features on the car such as power antenna. Has any other power feature gone off as well?
Check the runners the seat slides in. There might be something trapped in there blocking the running action.
There are two fuse boxes. One under the hood in the rear drivers side corner, under a black plastic cover. The other is inside the car, inside the end panel of the dash. (With the door open).
Check fuses 1 and 18 as they cover the power seat functions.

The drivers side seat electrical does not work. Seat won't move, car was purchased without a manual. Where are the fuses for this?

The fuses are generally located in a panel under the drivers side of the dash. while you are under there. take a look under the drivers seat and you'll see the wires for the power to the seat. I have known firends who've unplugged their power options accidentally while shoving such as a flashlight under there, Just thought it may be helpful to think about, in the case that your fuses are all good.


Hope this helps

Good Luck and Happy Motoring

Lexus GS 300 driver's side power seart is jammed. Ineed to remove it - can you help

Hi, there are two ways to this problem. First of all, check the fuse box for a blown fuse, the seats operate on fuse which if burnt will not make the seat work. The fuse may be located either under the dash on the drivers side or in the engine compartment on the drivers side. Secondly, if it isn't a fuse problem, you have to replace the power motor so it can work again, I can imagine it's gonna cost a lot for your lexus, Normally this happens because of constant use.

Looking for location of fuel pump relay switch on a 1994 Honda Accord LX

Hi!!

Check for a 15A Fuse labeled FUEL PUMP on the cabin Fuse Box located in the front seating area, driver side, under dash, behind kick panel.

The diagram shows the Main PCM relay controlling the Fuel Pump, but it wont hurt to check the cabin fuse box under hood, passenger side, rear side of strut tower, mounted in fuse/relay box on firewall
