Posted on Mar 10, 2011

Hello, need your advice to solve the problem, saab ss 2003 driver electric seat (without memory) doesnt move to any directions. I suspect that problem with relay (didnt find any fuse responsible for that) and I can not find a relay. Owner manual shows that it is in trunk fuse panel , but I dont see any relays except fuses. Thank u in advance

Unless this is a convertible then there is no relay for the seat in the trunk. The relay is supposed to be under the driver's seat. Look for the Red wire going to the seat switch, that should be 12 volts with the key on. The brown wire should be ground. The best way to test power & ground is to use a headlight (sealed beam) & try to power that up with the power & ground going to the seat switch. What that does is make sure that there are no bad connections & you truly have good power & ground. Maxi fuse #4 powers up the seat relay.

I have a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica and neither one of the power front seats will move. I have checked all seat fuses under the hood and all looked good.

Expert: sprinkles08 replied 7 years ago. Hello and welcome to JustAnswer!
There are a number of things that can cause this and there is a service bulletin that goes over diagnosing and repairing them, but the most common problem would be that the memory heated seat and mirror module has electronically locked up or failed. This module controls memory and all seat functions and is located on the bottom of the driver's seat pan. Most likely your module will need to be replaced and a ground wire added that goes from the module to the seat frame.
Try disconnecting the battery or disconnect the module to see if it will come back to life. If not then it is possible to move the seat with a couple jumper wires. The easiest thing to do would be to unplug the connectors at the module and jump the motor right there. You would need the light green/light blue and the light green/orange wire. Jump one to positive and one to ground and the seat will move. If it moves in the opposite direction you want it to go just reverse your jumper wires and the seat will move in the opposite direction.

The front seats for our 2003 Escalade will not move forward or backward and the heat control for the front seats will not work.

Does your Escalade have memory seats ?
There are 2 options of power seat systems available in full size trucks. The 6 way driver and passenger power seats, and 8 way driver and passenger power seats with driver memory. For the driver memory seat operation refer to Memory Seats Description and Operation . Power seats without memory are completely controlled through the power seat switch. Battery voltage is supplied to the power seat switch through the power seat circuit breaker. While the seat adjuster switches are in an inactive state the switch contacts are closed to the power seat switch ground circuit. When a power seat switch is pressed to an active state the switch contact is closed to the battery voltage supply circuit. Each seat adjuster motor is controlled by the power seat switch through 2 motor control circuits. The seat adjuster motors are bidirectional and the direction of adjuster motor rotation is determined by which of the adjuster motor control circuits is switched to battery voltage while the other remains grounded.

2003 Saab 9-3 ARC. My pressure sensor on the drivers side window it tripped so I can't roll up the window all the way. I have to inch it up to the top and if I go to far it thinks something is in the way...

Search Saab forums for your year and model to get advice on the driver's window. Re the heated seats not turning off -- try spraying some WD40 into the switch and turning on/off several times to clean it. If that doesn't work, you'll need to take out the switch and either repair or replace it.
