'84 300SD driver's seat

Submitted by Ehren51 on 10 April 2008 - 6:26am.

I'm wondering if there's anyone out there that has had a seat motor go bad? I have replaced the seat switch on my driver's side to no avail and am wondering where to go next. I can hear the switch make a noise when I move it so I am assuming that is in working order. I have both of Kent's manuals (Chassis Door Maintenance and Repair & Front Seat Repair and Restoration) and neither speak directly to my situation. However, they do a wonderful job in describing how to remove the front seat, which I'm slightly afraid that's where I'm going to have to go to next! Also, I haven't checked yet, but is there a fuse for these... could it possibly be that simple???

After the 3rd time through the seat repair manual I finally read the appendix and found several answers to my seat problems, thank you again Kent. One related question however, you discuss seat handle repair and I'm not sure that my w126 power seat ever had one of these... do all Benz have them? Thanks all. Ehren
