Inspect the adjusters.
If the adjusters are out of phase (one adjuster reaches its maximum horizontal or vertical travel in a given direction before the other adjuster) phase the adjusters as follows:
- Horizontal travel
  - Operate the seat control switch until 1 adjuster reaches a full-forward position.
  - Detach the horizontal drive cable from the adjuster which has reached a full-forward position.
  - Operate the seat forward until the other adjuster reaches its forward position.
  - Connect the horizontal drive cable.
  - Inspect the horizontal travel of the seat.
- Front or rear vertical travel
  - Operate the seat control switch until one adjuster has reached a fully raised position at both the front and the rear vertical travel limits.
  - Disconnect both of the vertical drive cables from the adjuster which has reached the fully raised position.
  - Operate the seat control switch until the other adjuster reaches the fully raised position at both of the front and the rear vertical limits.
  - Connect the previously removed front and rear vertical drive cables.
  - Inspect the vertical travel by operating the adjusters through 1 or 2 complete cycles.
    The above operation may be repeated on a "as required basis," if the adjusters do not appear to be in phase after the test cycle.
