Power seat stuck full forward! - Page 2

-chris- · Feb 2nd, 2014, 21:05

Have treble checked fuse 24 in the passenger compartment. (Went though every single one whilst i was there to be sure!) All fine. Also went back over plugs A and B.

Still not getting anything on Plug B when it's out and the ignition is on.

Bit more research needed tomorrow i guess.

I've now resolved this issue.

For the record (even if it was an embarrassingly daft problem of my own making).

I had cut the into the original volvo power supplies to connect the aftermarket seat heaters as per mikes guide (Blue with red stripe to red, black to black) but missed a cable from the block. The black cable originally had a brown with it which i missed. Connected that up with the black and now have everything back to normal and a nice warm bum aswell!

Thanks mike for your help.

Glad to hear you got it resolved, not a difficult job does take quite a bit of time and effort, worth it in the end though - Next up for me is to fit seat heaters to the leather/ alcantara rear seats in my V70, that should be even more difficult due to the size and weight of them - Mike

Sounds interesting! I'll watch out for it!

@ Chris

How did you get on with the resetting of the SRS?

I've got Vida/Dice and I live in Exmouth but working in Plymouth just now so get about a bit. Depending where you live I don't mind dropping by to reset or alternatively you can travel to me.

Glad you got your seats sorted Mike is a wizard!

Still got the srs light on so a bit of help with that would be brilliant! I'll send you a pm. Thanks

Nice meeting you and your good lady Chris.

Quick easy hook up and reset and all was well, one happy chap.

Yes, likewise! Good to meet you and thanks for the help.

Got me googling vida/dice and laptop setups!
