Default Lumbar Support Making Noises

Hey guys,

first off, wanna thank everyone who gave me input on my last thread about just lowering the rear of my 2000, ended up lowering the front and can't wait to get it on the road if this weather will ever break.


Now onto the question ...

Before I put the vette away for winter, i had noticed that my side bolsters and lumbar support wouldn't inflat or deflat. Whenever i push either of the three buttons, all i hear is a "farting" type noise .... but nothing happens.

Any suggestions on where to start on getting this fixed ... dont really wanna have to take it to a dealer.


Thanks a bunch

I hope sombody has an answer for this . My lower lumbar does the same thing. Sound like the motor is trying to run but then quits. Let me know if you find out something.
Thanks,
Bobby
