I am a 68 year old woman. I know nothing about repairing cars. But my son had this problem with his truck and I watched your RUclips. It was very clear and I was able to follow it and make the repair myself. My only regret is that I had to buy the part from a parts store paid about four times as much as I would on Amazon but I needed the repair done immediately. Thank you for this video.
Saweet! Thanks brutha, I appreciate it! Some people just don’t think about it, I’ve been a mechanic my whole life, like 44 years, I build engines, transmissions, carburetor rebuilds, wiring, etc. but on almost all older stuff, lord knows, I have the tools, but when something like this happens to one of your vehicles you can be completely lost! Just ask a concise question and poof, get a step by step video from you! Awesome, problem solved! Thanks again! Hope you get a sponsorship from a big tool company?
Before you buy a new switch, you can try squirting some contact cleaner or WD40 I to the little holes on the back of the switch that has the problem. Work the switch back and forth manually a dozen times or so. Wipe off any residual cleaner and then try the switch. It worked for my brother in law's truck. Sometimes a switch gets a little dirty. Good luck!!
Having almost the same problem with my 09 Cadillac Escalade same side, seat was tilted all the way back and now can't get it to go up. I'm a mom and have no idea about these things. So thank you so much for sharing! this is gonna help me lots! Will have to order this part😊
THANK YOU so much!!! This was amazing! My suburban had the EXACT same issue. After forever of not knowing what to do, I watched a couple of other videos that didn't help and then saw this one. Ordered the part yesterday and fixed it today!!! I am so excited I only had to pay $20something instead of taking it somewhere and spending a fortune!!! Thank you for showing this and explaining the smallest details and steps!
Our 2013 suburban passenger seat has been all the way forward for almost a year now! Pulling switch out now and heading to oreillys to see about swapping! Thank you!
Mannnnn!! These. shops need to stop with their high prices. I've been thinking it was the seat motor and was a expecting a $500+ repair. It's most likely the switch. I ordered the part today and hope to install when it gets here in a couple days. I haven't been too pressed about it since its the passenger side but I'll fix it for $20. Thanks for the video.
Great video.. For my 2014 yukon Driver seat forward and backward not moving but I can heard the motor it just doesn’t move. Passenger seat the recliner stuck all the way down. And I can hear the motor too.. Any tips.?
Thank you for watching, it might be your Switches going bad or I've also herd that the cable get jammed up inside the seat but to access that you have to take the back pannle off from the back of your seat to get to the cables Hopefully this helps you.
@@fixitwithdavid4698 that’s what I was figuring out but if I tried the switch I can hear my motor going ON/OFF just does move forward or backwards or the recliner.. this is stressing me out lol
Hi David, I need to replace just the lumbar adjustment switch 2012 Tahoe, driver seat. I was browsing around but I did not find anything. Do you know where I could find it? Thank you in advance!! Cristian Franz
@@fixitwithdavid4698 Thank you very much David. I am deeply thankful. Anyhow, the problem wasn't the switch but a broken metal support located inside the back seat. Now I have to find a place where somebody make it for me, because it has a rounded form and is very hard. Regards
I replaced this and the original was working just not moving in all the directions needed. I replaced with a new one and that did not work. Put back in the old one that was starting to fail and now that one isn’t working at all. I ordered another one so I guess I will see. Any suggestions? Did I trip something? Why doesn’t the original one have power now?
My 2007 buick lucerne drivers seat is stuck in one position, it won't move at all, nothing is operational, and it doesn't make any sound when I push any controls. Do you think this will fix my problem ?

@@fixitwithdavid4698 that’s what I was figuring out but if I tried the switch I can hear my motor going ON/OFF just does move forward or backwards or the recliner.. this is stressing me out lol
Yes it can get a little stressful lol , but it does sound like your switch is going out.
Great video bro 👍
You should make more vids
It was great. I had the same problem.
Thank you sir. 2011 Silverado
Your welcome
Excelente video 👌👌👌
Ay YO RAIDER NATION!!
I appreciate your video,,the description would not load
Oh really thanks for letting me know I'll look into it, also thanks for watching.
Dave....My passenger seat won't tilt forward or backwards. How do you know if its the control switch or a motor or something else?
My seat would still move forward and back but wouldn't tilt that's how I knew it wasn't the motor and just the control switch had to be replaced.
Excellent! figured out that the mechanism was jammed and only needed to tap it with a screwdriver. Works fine now! thanks again for your response.
That's awesome I'm glad it was a easy fix ,thanks for watching 👍

Hello Cristian i found one on eBay here is a link hope it helps.

Oh I see , well I'm sure someone can make the peice that you need good luck with everything.👍
Question I have 2008 avalanche en the drive side seat It doesn’t go forward air backward All the way one side doesn’t move at all
You should try to change the controls like on the video it might fix your problem.
Hey I can’t find the part on Amazon the one you have in the description I’m looking for a 2007 gmc sierra 1500
They have them for about $20 for gmc Sierras 2007 -2013 search up seat controls and it should come up.
I screenshoted the box picture
👍👍👍👍
Is that a 8 way power seat or 6 I don’t know 😭
Happen to know the link the one you have is not working
I replaced this and the original was working just not moving in all the directions needed. I replaced with a new one and that did not work. Put back in the old one that was starting to fail and now that one isn’t working at all. I ordered another one so I guess I will see. Any suggestions? Did I trip something? Why doesn’t the original one have power now?
Maybe a bad fuse that needs to be replaced now.
My 2007 buick lucerne drivers seat is stuck in one position, it won't move at all, nothing is operational, and it doesn't make any sound when I push any controls. Do you think this will fix my problem ?
I think it might or maybe the seat isn't receiving any power to it.
will the same switch work for the drivers side as well?
Yes it should be the same set up but just on the opposite side that's all.
👌👍
