Default Drivers seat rebuilt
Just finished putting the rocking seat fix in and replaced the motor and seat controller for so the lumbar now works perfectly, will start upholstery this weekend.

I still have a short in my lumbar. There is a click that comes from the console area when I put in the lumbar fuse. The lumbar function works fine on both seats, but I know its draining the battery with the fuse in. I keep the fuse out. Any suggestions?

Congrats on getting the car fixed. And nice that you were able to do it yourself.
