Do you know if it will work on a cadillac srx?
@@franciscorado4711 I dont, but what do you have to lose by trying?
Can't believe this worked on my 2013 Cadillac SRX. Mine had the issue on the front passenger side. It also worked to reset the lumbar support back to off and the recline worked again.
I have no idea why it works, but it does!
I love when older folks explain stuff y'all definitely be knowing very helpful worked for my Mercedes and the button slightly broken but it still work
This is an old video. I’m even older now. How the hell am I still alive?
Thanks for the video just a quick tip I wanted to share with you bc you was talking about cleaning your seats I’m a professional detailer most stores like Wal-Mart have these they are called Mr Clean dry erasers spray some all purpose on your seat soak it pretty good then use the erasers on them then wipe the extra stuff off with a rag your seats will look brand new 😀 when I started detailing I discovered those and they work like magic and they are pretty cheap too !
Thanks! I’ll grab one next time I’m at Wally World!
Thank you for this brother God Bless you. Praying for you
It didn't work for my Ford truck. Now my seat is leaning all the way back. It was already too far back so it was worth the try. Thanks for sharing just the same.
LMFAO! I tried this and my seat got stuck all the way back, now I can’t reach the pedals and have to drive looking like a whole ass Mexican grandmother
Ok Abuela, try this,,,,, disconnect the positive side of the battery cable. Leave it off for 5 minutes. while its off, pull and check the fuse for the seat motor. reinstall fuse, reconnect battery cable. see if it works.
That's hilarious I'll go ahead and try mine on my 2007 Cadillac Escalade tomorrow wish me luck
I was prepared to ransack the innards of my power driver seat in my 98 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, but I'm so glad I ran across your video because this trick worked like a charm. The seat would move every which way but backwards and unfortunately, I'm 6' tall and clumsy as hell so I'd gradually inched it forward bit by bit on accident over the last few months to the point that my legs didn't fit anymore 😂 I tilted it all the way up/back and it slid right back! Thank you so much!!
I'm glad it helped! Thanks for letting me know.
Boo MF'n Wee
Same here ive spent hours looking up how tos and finally this video worked great
Wow, thanks so much. I was thinking this won’t be cheap. This might not work for everyone but it worked first time like a charm for me! Just great, so happy! Thanks again.
I've never known of man that could control the rain. You dummies gave that man too much credit for things. Truly shows your mentality!
Oh, you poor thing. You dont understand humor. Bless your heart.
@@bctruck Yeah right! Humor my axx! 🤣🤣🤣
I gotcha beat. 11 years old with 220,000 miles on my Chevy Trailblazer. Original everything that runs by the grace of God!
That's a bunch of miles!!
It's got a lovely I6 engine! Again, grace of God!
Come for the seat fix, stay for the baked onions!
Thanks! Worked on my 2019 acura rdx! Wasnt moving forward and back but i tilted the seat all the way back and i was able to move it forward and back! Hopefully it doesnt happen again!
Glad it worked for you!
I can't believe it it worked on my cadillac srx 2016. I was hesitant to try it because I was worried it would stay stuck
Fantastic!
i want to say THANKS for your HELP
Great tip on the seats. The weather is just nuts here too. Never rains in August and get cool? Unheard of.
Bizarre weather and we've broken a couple records of rainfall and low temps here.
Omg thanks i couldn't even drive comfortable because my seat was all the way back...all i did was make back rest go all the way down and it went up perfectly
Thank you so much for the tip my front seat was stuck I really appreciate your video It worked for me
Glad it helped! Thanks for letting me know!
Thanks!! Worked on my 2004 Mercedes front passenger seat
Glad it helped
Thank you so much for this I thought I was gonna have to replace my mustangs whole seat but with this tip I didn’t thank you thank you thank you
Glad it helped!!
Thank you! You said “spray some contact cleaner” and that did the trick on my wife’s Nissan Rogue. Tip of the hat to you, good sir.
Glad it work for you!
We already had our average rainfall for the year! Thanks Oba..... BC, I can't hardly say it.....
Raining right now. I thought it was done. Thanks Obama! For the next 8 years,I'm gonna blame him for everything that goes wrong,just like he did GW.
Came here to learn to fix my seat, but now I’ve got onions in the oven and I keep thanking Obama for it.
LOL!!!
Bahahahaha!
I’m nervous my seat will get stuck In the back position 🤣if I try that.
Mines did 😂
Got several good laugh's out of this one. Appreciate the tip on the F150, elect driver seat. I've still got my 2001, that runs great.
I actually got that tip from the ford parts guy when I called about a price on the switch unit. It's stopped working several times and that little tip has worked every time.
Thank you so much worked on my mustang 2008! I’m so happy now it was pissing me off.
Maya Casablanca awesome!
As I said before it is good you are safe. God Bless the people of Louisiana.
Thanks. It's unbelievable the amount of people displaced.
Worked perfectly, thanks a lot
Thanks for letting me know!
Damn sir! My seat was at 180° and flat like my girlfriend back in 8th grade. Wouldn't budge up til I saw ur vid and decided to try and push my seat FURTHER down! Well I pressed it and then pressed forward..... Valla it works!
That's a good tip on the seat. I was just thinking about how you were doing down there. Hope you can stay above the water level.
So far so good! I am sleeping with my floaties on though.
Lol the randomness made it funny. Kudos.
It's been in the upper 60's & low 70's here. Never seen it this cool this early. Not that I'm complaining. It's typically in the 100's....LOL
We're having rain as well. It was getting pretty dry around these parts.
When I first saw your vid. I thought that the butter monster had tried to steal your truck & broke the seat. :D
Sure am glad that you folks aren't being flooded. Was getting worried. I have some family in the Houston area. Maybe it's time to invest in some rice....
The last several years, August has been so dry that all out grass died and the trees would start losing leaves to concentrate on staying alive. I'm trying not to complain so much since the drought has been so bad for so long.
Will that work for any seats?
I bought an Infiniti G35 and both seats will only recline but won't go forwards.
The also only move backwards but now forwards.
My brother said he could probably fix it but he hasn't figured it out yet.
I don't want to move the seats back all the way and then not be able to fix it.
Even if you move them all the way back, if this doesn’t work, under the seat will be a bolt you can turn to move the seats forward. Also, try unplugging the wiring harness that goes the the actuator motor under the seat,and plug it back in.
@@bctruck I'll try both methods. Thank you so much for responding!
Wow didnt think it would work, but it did!! Thanks!!
Does this work for any truck,suv,etc
yes
I should've asked does this work on Lincoln SUV or trucks as well and thanks for any advice you give
Loved your wisecrack at the wife. Hehe. Funny stuff. I do that too. ...Oh and good info on the seat too.
I feel your pain... I am getting the same stuff u are ....and looks like we are fixing to get another batch in a hour or so....thanks Obama
just started raining again!!! Im so bloody sick of rain!!!
LOL! Was laughing every time you went to the window and scared the spider!
I just went and looked. I don't see a spider but I see a speck of dirt. I would have to kill a spider,even in the rain!!
+BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose So mean! I have them all over as they love my front porch.
Your sense of humor is priceless! I thoroughly enjoy your channel. :) I have another question since you drove for many years. On the Cajon Pass the trucks were lined up on both sides because of the fire. Several were filled with perishable food like produce. If the stuff goes bad, does the insurance pay for it, doesn't it affect the driver for his miles being stuck? Perhaps you could do a short video on how stopped trucks affect us via the butterfly affect, how it trickles down? Thank you. :)
the food wont perish unless the engine that runs the refrigeration unit on the trailer,runs out of fuel. Most refers tanks hold 50,100 gallons. It would run for days and days. Truckers dont get paid unless their wheels are turning.
Thank you. :)
The seasoning and cooking after..😂😂😂😂😂😂 legendary
Thank you this worked for my crysler 300
It work like a champ...thanks again
Fantastic!!
Thanks so much this seemed rediculous but it works!!!!!!!!!
It doesn’t work for everyone but it’s worth a try before spending money.
HOT here in Oregon...102° at our house...it's been over 100° all week...seems someone switched our weather.
I've been wonderin' how you'r faring with all the flooding down there. Glad to see it looks like your ok....
Yep. We are just wet but no flooding. I'll take my weather back please.
You can have it....😕
Oh my gosh, 2012 Hyundai Genesis, it worked - hooray - thank you for your post.
I like you, you're funny lol😂🙋🏽♀️!
Tried the seat back. Tried unplugging as read below... Nothing. Any other tips? Ford fusion 2010. It's going forward but not back. I'm not sure I can drive it tomorrow now.. made it home today after it got stuck.. knees neatly touching dash. Only lowering the seat back helped. Don't think it will now..
You may have to manually move the motor. Im out of ideas otherwise.
I just did a little googling. You may have to check the fuse under the hood. It will be fuse number 74.
@@bctruck Thanks! Going to have my husband check that with me tomorrow. Appreciate your help! Couldn't find a single video on RUclips about my specific year, just every hear around it it seemed. LOL
@@bctruck If not the fuse, I may see if we can do that but the motor seemed to be pretty hard to reach. So hope the fuse does the trick! This happened once before and somehow worked itself out. I had to move it today only cause something important got lodged in a weird spot between my seat and the center console.. and it acted up again.
Heheheh, you told the whole world the missus is dirty and sweaty! So ahhmmm..... Where are you sleeping the next few days? I don't remember seeing AC in your shop. And that rain!!!! God bless. At least your up on a hill of sorts. Stay safe.
Believe me,my wife and I joke around alot,. I hardly ever have to sleep in the shop. I actually do have a huge 220 window ac in the shop,but when I turn it on,my wallet empties.
I know, I'm just having fun busting your chops.. 😊
LOLOLOL, We are having rain and cooler temps too. Love it and we needed the rain. My tomatoes are happy again!
Ill bet! That lake near you full yet?
More rain in your clip than we've had in the last 3 years. Truly true. STOP RAINING!
Rained last night and rained this morning.
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose Sandbags, anyone?
+AnnBearForFreedom more like floaties and goggles.
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose That works! Have you seen the floating vests for dogs? Too small for you and me, obviously, but like for your canines. Oh never mind...I'm sure they swim better than most people! Dogs are awesome like that.
Video a bit TMI - but as to the simple fix, it was right on. reclining the seat back all the way allowed it to back far enough. I did laugh at the wife joke. Thanks for info
I do my videos for my friends, family and subscribers. They enjoy my conversation. This video wasn’t done for you and you have the choice of forwarding past conversation you don’t want to hear, or just fucking completely off.
Can you manually move seat back on a 2011 expedition drivers side ...thank you so much in advance...
Well can u...
Omg thanks so much. You saved me an a** whooping.
Can you do this on the door panel switch of a 96 crown vic as well?
I have no idea.
It worked!!!!!! Thank you 😇😇😇
You're welcome!
Hahaha good stuff. A lot of rain here to it's crazy God bless brother
I just saw the sun peek out for a mi ute,so at least I know it's still there!
lol butter is tricky, y'all stay safe you guys musta got all our rain this year tfs
Man we've got a years worth of rain this month!
Does it work on 2010 toyota alphard?
It’s worked on so many different vehicles that I don’t even remember now what it does or doesn’t work on.
Outstanding! Worked like a charm!
take it apart and submerge the switches in rubbing alcohol I had a Ford Mustang I had to do that to the window switch on the passenger side that didn't get used much and it worked perfectly
good tip! Thanks! This is something I would expect from a dodge,but not a ford. Maybe they are dodge switches?
Lol actually the dog is pushing 13 years old and never had a problem with the windows knock on wood
Dodge not dog....
+Toby dog,,,, I think they call that a Freudian slip.
I think they learn to tolerate us or something... we went into Cracker Barrel and they have a witches broom that moves around, I said"hey hag, whistle see if the brooms comes to you" I got some looks from other folks....lol, of course she just indicated she was my number one fan. I'll do an onion in foil like a baked tater, never tried them the way you showed. One of my favorite ways to make and eat onions is to slice up a couple then cook low and slow in butter or bacon grease or more recently olive oil =( until they are nice and brown then make a sandwich with buttered pumpernickel.. of course I'm not adverse to eating the left covers right out of the jar from the fridge....
Good lord!!! An onion sandwich sounds so good!!!
Dang, I’d surely give up Sunny California for that yard. Wow , really nice.
And that just from my wife!! Lol
Thank you …….it worked!!!
Glad it worked for you!
What of the reclining part doesn't move?
Try sliding it all the way forward and all the way back and see if that works.
@@bctruck thanks so much for the reply! Unfortunately it won't go forward & it's all the way back. It will go up & down & sometimes the recliner part will go forward but never backwards. That part has actually been like that for 3 years, the not going forward part just started last week, no good! There are alot of dishonest mechanics out there so trying to avoid taking it in cuz I feel like it's something easy lol. I heard there is a switch that can get stuck but it's almost impossible to get to if the seat is all the way back.
@myahis1 if you are at all handy with tools, remove the seat control module and spray contact cleaner in it.
I have heard of the wires chafing on the lumbar plates, maybe putting the seat back stopped the short. Maybe not. Thanks for the video.
Little "Water Displacement number 40" would probably do it wonders. My mom had a Ford Taurus that the dome lite stuck on. I pulled the bulbs out to get her by till I could fix it. I found out that some idiot decided to put the switch inside the latch assembly. But a little aforementioned magical elixir sprayed inside the latch assembly fixed it up just fine.
Im certain that latch assembly was an after market dodge part! Fords dont rust either! Its in the bible!
No rust on my 2001 Cummins Big Dog
bc65925 Being up on blocks under a tarp in the barn doesnt count! Badum bum! Im here alll week folks! Dont forget to tip your waitress!
does this work for saturn outlook
I don’t know but I would try it before I payed someone else.
I wish the rain was up here and I love them temps I would be on the move all day long can't stand the heat and your polterguist is doing the same thing with my stuff too how did it get this far east
I'm just the opposite. I love the heat. I hate cold and anything less than 70 is cold!!!
You covered just anout everything in this video. lol. Ford seat repair, onions, butter, and rain, Right Obama
It was a cornucopia of topics!
Does anyone know if this will work on a 2000 grand marquis. The tilt works but the seat motor just clicks trying to move it forward and back
It cant hurt to try all switches as far as each will go. also, under the seat where the control motor is, there should be a bolt head you can put a socket on and turn it.
Ok I'll look and see when I go back out to my car
Damn bro it worked thanks
I DID WHAT YOU SIDE IT DID NOT WORK -I TOOK THE FRONT SEAT BOLT OUT LEANED THE SEAT BACK STARTING WORKING-GOING FRONT AND BACK -- BUT IT STOPPED AGAIN WHAT DO I DO---THANKS
First, on your keyboard, press the caps lock button!!! Then, take your switches out and spray contact cleaner in them.
@@bctruck are you saying take the cover off pull the switch out spray with cleaner
@@davidliniewkski1687 Yes, the contacts inside the switch are likely not making contact. You have checked the fuses first, right?
@@bctruck yes fuse ok the seat goes up and down but when i want to move it front and back it just clicks under the seat wont move front or back
NEED SOME HELP SEAT GOING UP AND DOWN WONT GO FRONT OR BACK I HAVE 2000 F150
I tried this on my 2016 GMC Terrain and my seat got stuck 😢
So solly.
I have a 2001 Acura cl and my issue is the tilt don’t go back or foward
If the seat will slide forwards and backwards, try going all the way in each direction with that switch.
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose will do thanks I’ll let you know
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose how did u get the screw on the right side off I can’t get the Angle
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose ... nvm lol
I sure enjoy your jokes. hope you didn't have to sleep in the dog house after the dirty truck seat joke.
Have a Jesus filled day
Greg in Michigan
No dog house for me. My wife and I joke alot. Its either laugh or cry. I prefer laughing and so does she. Besides,If she kicks me out,I'll sleep in my shop. I have snacks hidden out there.
+BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose
Ahh The ol' snack's hidden in the shop trick. Know that one all to well myself.
Greg in Michigan
I had a fat guy sit on my seat and now it’s stuck it only reclines back not forward I have pillows on my back for support. Hopefully the motor works
fat guys are such jerks!
Don't date fat guys
Would this work on a 2005 kia sorento
I dont know, Couldnt hurt to try?
BCtruck, rebuild, repair,repurpose I’m asking cause if I recline it all the way back and it doesn’t move forward
It worked thank you so much!!
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Great! Now my seat is completely stuck in the back position. On the drivers side :(
Well that won’t work.
Will this work on a 200 ford expolorer?
I have no idea.
every thing else works but the seat doesn't forward or backwards what do i change
If leaning it back doesn’t fixit, I don’t know anything else but switch replacement.
@@bctruck when you said switch replacement that means i switch the motor or just the switch i'm goping to the junkyard in the morning
jeremy pinder I think it’s more than likely a switch or a seat motor fuse. The motors themselves rarely fail.
@@bctruck where is the seat motor fuse at i drive a 1996 mercury grand marquis i took out the switch and it was very dirty. i'm going to take out my seat to see if it still works i have to do something to have everything inside of my car working fine
@@jeremypinder4436 There is a 20 amp fuse in your fuse box ,its the second fuse up from the bottom left. It operates both seat motors and power door locks. If your power door locks are working, then its not the fuse,its more than likely the switch.
Man, we could use some of that rain up here... Even though we have had a fair amount of rain over the past month, I was just pulling weeds and the ground was bone dry... I guess it's been so hot that the rain all evaporated before sinking into the ground! **sigh**
If I could control it,I would definitely send up your way. I'm siiiiiiiiick of rain!
Well, I appreciate the thought...!
Thank you so much, this worked on my 2007 dodge grand caravan
Send that rain to us in California we need it put out all the huge fires we have burning
If you had this rain in California, instead of fires you would have mud slides.
Do you not capture your rain water?
I dug a well so I don't have to catch rain.
doh, I remember watching those vids. LOL
+Marmoset Preparedness those videos have had so many views I could kick myself for not having a good camera and better skills at recording and editing.
You worked with the kit/skills you had at the time but I think most of your suscribers like the "off the cuff" style of your videos so don't let hindsight poke you in the ass too much :-)
THE FROG WILL LIKE IT
Nope. Bugs don't come out in the rain. I'll bet that frog has lost some weight.
Yea, that's what we need, butter poltergeist!!
Rain!? Thanks Obama! Made me laugh
MY seat when I push the button the motor clicks once and it will not tilt back Help
Send the rain to NJ. We need it here.
You're the second person in NJ. That told me you need rain.
You can take it apart n clean the contacts. They get stuck from junk n turn brown ..get the electric wire cleaner
So far I haven’t had any more trouble but I’ll try that if it does happen again. Thanks!
You said with your wife standing right there??? LOL Lucky she wasn't holding a frying pan or something. :)
she's a good sport,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,right?
Wat if it doesn't move at all
Then, you have either a blown fuse, bad seat motor, or bad switch.
@@bctruck I can hear a click it's jus the back it still slides back and forth
Where the vid on fixing spouting
Im not able to figure out what this even means.
Sure wish you could send it to the west coast and Pacific Northwest. we could use it for the wildfires. Don't know which is worse, fires or floods.
If I had any sway with the rain, I would ask it to head your way.
That whole "thanks Obama" comment is so last 8 years.... #8yearsofthanks
In reality, I'll get as tired of hearing it's obamas fault as I did hearing it's bushes fault. I spit coffee out my nose when in his second term, Obama blamed the previous administration again for the latest thing to go wrong.
I have found that the Obama administration is good for very few things, chief among them is the unwavering ability to blame everyone else for their failures, Bush and republicans in congress being the main ones blamed and then accepting or claiming the positive outcome of something others did as if Obama himself somehow did it. How unfortunate for us that congress is so weak and corrupt that it refuses to use it constitutional powers to rectify the disaster this administration and president has been for the past 8 years....
+AmericanLibertyFighters I think it's because they are all owned by the same corporations. This bit of infighting and posturing we get to witness is just so we will believe there is a difference between them.
I can agree to a point on most of those in politics being owned by corporations. Unfortunately the way things are these days makes it easy for this to happen when lobbyists pay for votes. Sad thing is that most Americans either don't care what's going on or blindly believe them when told there's a difference between the Parties. Leadership of both Parties just want to protect the power they have grabbed and the dirty money filling their pockets from back door secret deals made.
sweaty & dirty & hahahaa I’m not even gonna say it lol! you funny! end up subscribing 👏🏾😂
What if no switches work?
If no switches work, than you more than likely have a blown fuse. Your owners manual will tell you where to look for the fuse.
@@bctruck cool, that's what I figured. I know motors are working because the 2 program buttons still set it to the presets
🔥🔥
