Can you manually move power seats?

[Burnt]

Working on water logged power seats. Anyway you can manually move power seats? I'm trying to move the track forward to remove the bolts holding the seats down. Bolt is above the rusting bolt in the picture, covered by the metal track.

Edit: There is a spring that attaches the motor to the track, does it loosen if I were to cut the spring?

Yes you can, You will need to remove the seat power connectors that connect the seat to the car. Apply 12v to the thick brown cable and the +ve supply to the red/black thick cable. Should be able to move the seat back n forth. Dont bother cutting any springs etc; it wont work

morski, is the guy who would know...

Also did you try the memory button?

I've tried all of the buttons. Both driver and passenger seats do not work. I've swapped out the large module on the driver seat, doesn't seem like I have one under the passenger seat.

Heating does not work on any of the seats even rear. Starting to sound like I have a bigger issue, bought a bad A7 module, or even get component protection off the new A7 module. I bought A8 seats, but will I need to remove component protection to get them working? I could attempt to slap a 12v or use the A8 module on an A7

Why bother to swap modules when you cant even move the seat which has power even with ignition off?? Hmm
