Got a question. I have a 98 and with the fuse installed the drivers seat likes to move on it’s own. Any ideas?

Could be an issues with the easy entry system or the seat memory system. Try turning the easy entry system off and see if that fixes the problem. To clarify the seat is actually readjusting, and not just rocking a bit. The rocking is a separate issue that can be fixed with a shim kit. Good luck. Also, you may want to post this in the tech section if you don't get many responses here.

I had a similar issue after turning off easy entry. The seats still moved and the mirrors moved when I used the remote. Now I just use the key to open the door. Just another electrical anomaly in the C5.

Deadly and dangerous. Any other recommendation is irresponsible. You should sell them immediately and use the proceeds to invest in a new set of Corbeau A4s. Lol

I’m going to go ahead and move this to the Tech section. Hope you can figure out what is going on.
