Description & Operation

The 6-way power seat provides horizontal, vertical, and vertical tilt adjustment. It consists of a reversible three armature motor, a switch and housing, vertical worm gear drives, and horizontal rack and pinion drives. Electrical circuit is protected by either a 20 or 30 amp. circuit breaker. Circuit breaker is mounted on starter solenoid on Ford, Mercury, LTD II, Thunderbird, and Cougar models, and in the fuse panel on Lincoln Continental and Mark V. Horizontal and vertical drive units are serviced individually. The motor, which contains three armatures, is serviced only as an assembly. Flexible drive shafts are serviced individually and can be removed by removing the hose clamps securing them.
