I'm very frustrated with the behavior of the electric front foot rigging. It has a single control to move the rigging up and down either alone, or in conjunction with the seat-back tilt, but the up and down movement of the front rigging itself is actually quite complex. It regularly gets stuck in a behavior where I'm unable to fully retract the rigging into the fully down position. Instead it's getting stuck at a 30-40 degree angle, not fully retracting. And, as a result, it doesn't fit into our car, which is a tight fit. It's very frustrating, because if I fiddle with it for 30 minutes up/down/up/down I can sometimes finally figure out how to get both the retraction and tilt to work together such that the assembly finally fully retracts... but there's no rhyme or reason as to how to control such a complicated system with just a single up/down control. Hopefully this makes sense.... I'm getting to the point now where I just want to rip off the entire assembly and put in something manual that actually works. It's incredibly frustrating, every time I need to put the wheelchair in the car I need to budget an extra hour or two to make sure I can figure out how to make it fit... and although I've done it repeatedly I have no idea how I actually ended up making it work. Thanks!

The SRS system involves explosive devices, for some reason they seem to
have been set off in your case. Maybe I minor collision or a crash
sensor malfunction caused it.
Only qualified professionals may work with these systems, diagnosing
and replacing components. This is one of the things that are definitely
off limits for DIY-ers.

Try giving it a solid tap with something hard (screw driver handle) while jiggling the seatbelt.

The electric adjustment motor has a drive-gear that engages a gear on the shaft of the adjustment screw (90 degree engagement). The gear on the adjustment shaft looses a tooth. Adjustment motor whines, drive gear on adjustment motor spins, no action though because of missing tooth. A 12mm 1/4" drive socket on a wiggler (universal) on the end of a 6" extension can engage the not on the end of the exposed large adjustment shaft and, as the shaft is lightly loaded and the electrical switch engaged, one can get the shaft to spin almost one revolution at a time until the seat is high enough. It is hard to reach the nut necessary (inside the dull-grey clevis that the shaft threads into) and I had to take off the seat pad by removing the 4@ 13mm nuts (and 3 @10mm nuts holding the center section with the driver's cushion) to more-or-less easily access the situation. Dealership wanted well over $1000. to fix it. Three out of my 4 up and down adjustment motors are running, but don't adjust. PS, on my 2001 Park Avenue on each seat there is one adjustment motor for the front edge up and down, one adjustment motor for the rear edge up and down, one adjustment motor for the seat fore and aft, and one adjustment motor for the sear back tilt. Lots of complication, not so much on durability. We do not swap out drivers and adjust the seats excessively. Weak design on the one internal gear. Manually adjust it, unplug the electric to the motor, Drive happy again.
