Driver And Front Passenger Backrest Adjustment Motor -V45- / -V46-, Removing And Installing: Installing
Repairing pyrotechnic components (for example the airbag and seat belt tensioner) incorrectly increases the risk of unintentional deployments when the battery is connected.
- Pay attention to the safety precautions when working with pyrotechnic components. Refer to SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING ON PYROTECHNIC COMPONENTS .
- Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example, connecting a connector), the person handling it must "discharge static electricity". For example, this can be done by briefly touching the door striker.
- Follow all the instructions when installing the front seat. Refer to FRONT SEAT, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Check the left and right position of the backrest frame and hinge.
- The backrest frame must be in the position marked on the left and right side before removal -arrows-.
-- If necessary, correct the position accordingly.
-- First slide the adjustment shaft through the backrest hinge (tunnel side) up to the mount in the backrest adjustment motor.
-- Check if the profiles of the inserted adjustment shaft and the mount in the backrest adjustment motor are congruent to each other.
-- If the position varies, connect an external 12-volt power source to the backrest adjustment motor and turn the mount until the profiles of the adjustment shaft and mount are congruent.
-- Slide the adjuster shaft through the mount in the backrest adjustment motor -2- and slide the hinge (side sill side) until it stops.
-- Tighten the bolt -arrow- for the backrest adjustment motor.
-- Push the lock washer -1- onto the adjustment shaft -2- so that there is still at least 1.0 mm of play.
Further installation is the reverse order of removal.
