Fitting Electric Seats

[Mr Singh]

Right chaps.

I got set of half leathers to put in my Altezza. I didn't receive any wiring with them. Phone around few salvage breakers, none of them will sell just the wiring loom for the seats, only the entire wiring loom for the car.

My question is, does anyone know if the loom for just the seats is available? Or if anyone has a wiring diagram for them so I can figure out what the pins do in the plug. There's a yellow round plug with 4 pins and a white square plug with 6 pins.

Also the seats have air bags.

Any tips or advice kindly received :)

Am.

have u pulled the carpet up underneath the seats? u might find the loom is already there?

[Mr Singh]

There isn't any. Only cables for the Seat belt warning lights on the dash.

[Monster-Mat]

yellow wire is for the seat airbags.....

you will have to get the wire loom made up, it cannot be bought seperatly

[ColinBarber]

I guess the white connector has the heater, seatbelt warning and the power supply for the motors.

Shouldn't be hard to get the power seats working, there is nothing complex as they are not memory seat, just need a single power feed.

[Mr Singh]

Righteo.

I'll have to get auto electrician onto it i guess. Unless someone has wiring diagram for the pins on the white plug?

True.

I can live without airbags, heated seats and warning lights. I'll play a about with 12v feed see whats what i suppose..

[Mr Singh]

Okay there in!

The electric seats are a little slow and sometimes don't move which is bizzare as they were fine out of the car when i was testing them..

Anyone else notice this?

[ColinBarber]

They can be slow if the engine isn't running. If they are still slow then check you have a good earth connection.

[Mr Singh]

Yeh i did notice it was little slow with engine not running. I will look at better grounding.

Thanks.

To have the comforts of an IS... :winky:

i have recently wired a passenger eletric seat in my car, just too let u know the 4 wires the seat needs (not the yellow airbag ) 2 are thin , these do the heated seats, the other 2 wires are quite thick, i guess this is for a reason and could be y ure seat is slow, mabie it cant pull enough juice through

[Asi]

when the cr is switched off the seats are slow....

Just the ticket, hooked up to the 2 thick wires and now have nice electric seats in my Altezza, just need to source heated seat switches and will get them working as well :)
