Electric seat fore/aft adjustment nonfunctional
Topic number

Version

Design group
91.10 Front seats
Date
07-10-2013
Validity
Model series 204, 207, 212 and 218 with fully electric seat adjustment
Reason for change
Added 204.0 and 204.9
Reason for block
Complaint:
1. Noises when operating electric seat fore/aft adjustment
2. Electric fore/aft adjustment nonfunctional
3. Adjustment is biased to one side, which bends the seat frame
Cause:
1. Frictional vibrations along fore/aft adjustment shaft
2. Motor detached owing to mechanical damage to electric motor retaining plate caused by the customer
3. One side of the seat adjustment drive shaft has come out
Remedy:
For models 204.3, 207, 212 and 218 the adjustment motor, shafts and electric motor retaining plate can be replaced:
(Contents of parts kit, see Pic12)
1. Move seat to forwardmost position
2. Remove seat cushion as per work instructions (Note: you do not have to cut the pnuematic lines as indicated in
work instructions (see Pic10) - take care not to pinch or kink the lines!)
3. Detach plastic rails used to mount control unit (Pic1)
4. Disconnect electric motor plug contact
5. Remove bolts T40 securing electric motor retaining plate (Pic2)
6. Push out electric motor upward (Pic3)
7. Remove electric motor
8. Pull shafts out of rails using pliers
Important: To ensure the parallelism of the two rails, do not twist the shafts and do not push against the rails mechanically.
9. Remove electric motor retaining plate
10. Position new electric motor retaining plate and screw in new bolts by a few threads
11. Insert shafts all the way into rails
Important: Do not turn the shafts by hand.
If the electric motor or one of the shafts has become detached as a result of the damage,
it is essential to check and, if necessary, to restore the parallelism.
To do so, compare the longitudinal position of the rear edge of the respective rail using a measuring tape (Pic11)
and adjust by turning the inserted shaft
12. Attach rubber mounts to new electric motor
13. Attach electric motor to short shaft first (Pic4)
Note: The electrical connection must always point upward.
14. Attach rubber cap to long shaft and insert long shaft at electric motor

15. Secure shaft and electric motor on retaining plate (Pic5-7)
16. Tighten bolts securing electric motor retaining plate to 25Nm
17. Assemble remaining components in reverse order
For model 204.0 and 204.9 the entire seat frame must be replaced and seat motor should be reinforced:
The customer should be made aware that adjusting the seat with items underneath it can and will damage the seat.
Replace affected seat frame (follow WIS document AR91.10-P-1450CW). To prevent this issue from occurring again,
use a cable tie to secure the fore/aft motor to mounting bracket on both the new seat frame, as well as the other seat
frame (as illustrated in the attached picture motor_reinforce.jpg).
