Thanks for posting this. I just fixed my 2005 FX35 driver side seat with that gear I ordered from Amazon, in 30 minutes. I didn't even take the seat out or unplug anything. Just pulled the plastic seat front off to the side and went from there.I went straight to the right side gear, and found that it was stripped.
I should have made the repair without taking the seat out of the car. This would have been a smarter and faster approach, but then I would not have found the treasures under my seat.
I have a 2005 Infiniti fx 35 with the exact same issue on the passenger side. This video was so helpful for me. Thank you for making a video that I can actually follow and understand !
I have a 2011 FX35 I'm trying to take out to see why the fuse for the drivers power seat and the dome lights keep blowing. There might be a wiring issue under the seat. Hopefully it's under the seat
If it moves in only one direction you could have a problem with your wiring or motor. You might have someone who's electrically inclined try to look at the voltage at the forward and back motor in both switch positions.
Hey friend, my passenger seat will now only recline and is stuck in a very awkward position. What gear would (possibly) need to be replaced to fix the tilt issue?
Thanks so much for the info, my drive sit is locked and took to infinity dealership and was told can’t be fixed and that the parts are discontinued but after I see this video I want to have a chance of fixing it
Hello, and thank you for the super informative video! So this would be accurate only if I hear the motor running? If I don’t hear the motor running it’s obviously the motor, correct? Thanks for your help love :)
intriguing. bought an 04 fx 35 in march. 19k. up to 26 now. drivers seat just stopped moving forward or back. everything else works fine. this video has been very informative. they're great cars but seem to be finicky. any issues with your passenger door and rear hatch not unlocking but then you unlock it manually on the passenger door and they both unlock again? its a weird thing I could explain more lol. keep up the great videos. curious to see the one about the drivers seat you mention at the end of this video cheers
The fix for the drivers seat is the same for the passenger seat. I think it’s even possible to this repair without removing the seat as long as you can raise it to maximum height. All my locks work except the fuel door. Thanks for watching.
@@justprojects1038 thanks for the reply. keep up the informative vids. very cool. any other ideas or directions you're thinking about going with your fx?
26k is a rare thing for an 04. I’m looking at one with 198k. Wanted some advice from someone that has experience with one. Should I buy it or is it too old?
Hurricane ida just blew the car seat motor i think. Inside my car got flooded. I opened my door and found my seat all the way back. And the car seat motor/ switch don't work and my battery was dead!!
how did you find the item for the project? For the same car, my steering wheel doesnt go forward and backwards. Im assuming the gear is broken.How do you find the part to fix it?
I've not had any trouble with my steering control, but I found the seat part on amazon. Before I ordered it I also found a guy online selling them. It's not a part that Infiniti sells directly.
Hey man, amazing informative channel! I recently got a '05 FX35 and Im doing small projects like you. I know you're not a mechanic but do you have any idea what might be the issue with my driver memory seat. I set the memory and when I exit the vehicle, the steering wheel retracts and the seat goes back. However, when I enter the vehicle and insert the key, only the steering wheel goes back to memory position but not the seat (unless i manually use the switch to pull it forward). Any ideas?
There is a computer setting to disable the automatic seat and steering movement. Unless you need the seat back and the whee up to get in and out, I would disable it so you don’t prematurely kill the gears / motors. Because my height adjusts on the seats have not been repaired yet, I don’t use memory seat at all.
I have a rusted bolt plate bolt thats also stuck/spinning. From infinitifx.org "Just pull... The interior tabs will pop off and you just need to make sure you find them again. If you try to use a screwdriver to pull off those tabs first, you'll damage them." www.justanswer.com/nissan-infiniti/4mnyn-infiniti-fx35-remove-rear-hatch-panel-infiniti.html
I think you can repair the front and back gear without removing the seat from the car, but then you will miss all the treasure buried under your seat. The other two motors are further back so I'm pretty sure the seat needs to come out for those....I still need to do this project on the drivers side.
If you hear the motor running but the seat is not moving I would check the gear. If you push the button but you don't hear anything then you likely have a problem with the motor or the other electrics.

Should of made a video lol
Thanks for this video! After watching i was able to fix my 07 G35 passenger seat without removing it.
underrated content, he gave us all the angles
Thank you for this kind comment.

The guy is hilarious!!! He has a great sense of humor..thank you for sharing
I still need to look under the drivers seat. I am sure there is more treasure there.
I’m thinking of getting one of these in a few days. It has 198k miles but seems to have been very well maintained. Do you think it’s a good idea?
Hi, I love your tips! I need some help. I want to wire my old G37 seat to be used as a recliner at home. Can you share some advice?
Great information! I see now it's an achievable task DIY this.
I think it might even be possible to do this without removing the seat.
My seat goes forward but it won’t go backwards !!!! What should I do I need help ASAP please
If it moves in only one direction you could have a problem with your wiring or motor. You might have someone who's electrically inclined try to look at the voltage at the forward and back motor in both switch positions.
I have same problem can’t drive any more. Did you fix the problem?
Thanks a lot, have the same problem on mine. Did you fix the drivers side up/down gear also?
I have not worked on my drivers side yet. I need to pull the seat and see if I can get it working.

Awesome info...Thx!
Driver seat is doing the same. Will be taking a look over the weekend.
I’m pretty sure that my drivers seat failed and someone stole the passenger gear to fix the drivers side.
Hi it’s parts same for both seats because I have issue in drive side seat
I really need some one that can help me with the seat I'm willing to pay for any work or a 2006 G35X sedan seat
I'm about to buy one 2004 also tommorow
Hopefully your purchase went as planned. I really like my 2004 FX.
I had a airbag light issue too and I was wondering how to reset it. Thanks bro for the great video.
I can't take credit for the airbag light fix, I saw someone else do this on RUclips and followed their instruction.
Hello, and thank you for the super informative video! So this would be accurate only if I hear the motor running? If I don’t hear the motor running it’s obviously the motor, correct? Thanks for your help love :)
I would guess if you don't hear or feel anything when you touch the switches then you might have a problem with the wiring or the motors.

Can u help with the seat stuck in forward recline. I hear the Motor click but no action.
Its almost certain that a plastic gear is broken. I have not tried to look at recline, only the forward and back.

Sorry to hear your car got flooded.

Mines just went out on my q50 its not moving forward or back
Would this work on an 08 fx35, I have the same
Problem but on the drivers seat
You can look at the seat motor when the seat is all the way up. If it looks similar to mine than it might be the same problem.
I did that light reset trick and the light came back on. Any idea?
You might have an actual fault in the system. It could be time to take it to the dealer for service.
Where can I find the item in 07:41 because mine is broken
Great video and instruction, many thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Just Projects Yea that’s exactly what I did. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. It’s my driver side but appreciate all the info.
You should be able to change the front / back movement without removing the seat. Good luck.
@@justprojects1038 where would it be located without having to remove the seat?
Where did you get the gear piece ? For the seat and what is it called ?
I ordered mine on Amazon. Here is a link www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082G63YX5
nice detailed video. thx for sharing
i have bolts stuck in the rear door for plates i don’t know how to remove the back panel to the hood plz help 😭😭😭
I have a rusted bolt plate bolt thats also stuck/spinning. From infinitifx.org "Just pull... The interior tabs will pop off and you just need to make sure you find them again.

Good job
Thank you.
a great video thanks. well done
Thanks for the kind feedback.
This is ridiculous ,you can still fix the power forward seat motor without removing the whole seat assembly
How??
@@teo-mulawish they would show how. I removed the seat & for the love of Jesus it would not fit back. I’m on day two trying.
Very Good!!!
Thank you
What if it don't move at all ? Infinity G35 coupe
If you hear the motor running but the seat is not moving I would check the gear. If you push the button but you don't hear anything then you likely have a problem with the motor or the other electrics.
@@justprojects1038 I hear a click click ,( motor ) I guess. Thanks for the knowledge
Let me know more plz
My fingers must be gigantic because I can’t pull the connectors off
I think it's possible to do this without removing the seat if only the forward and back have failed.
good
Thanks
good)))))
