2001 Spyder driver's side seat adjustment has packed in. Fuse intact and lumbar support still works. All other functions such as recline, height etc inoperative.

Does anyone out there have any suggestions on what I could check/look for?

Could be a loose multi-plug leading to the motors in the seat base as the lumbar motor is in the seat back.

OK...many thanks for prompt reply...I'll try and get underneath the seat and push what connectors I can reach...not a lot of room under there!!

Quite often this fault can be fixed by unplugging the plugs under the seat, cleaning away any dirt and then replugging together.

Problem is I can't see how to reach the plugs and wiring...is it possible to just remove the seat base and get to them from above??

Thanks to the guys that responded to my plea.

Managed to get to two of the connecting blocks.

Disconnecting and pushing back together again has done the trick.

All working again.

Thanks for the help guys.

I had the same problem, a battery reset solved the problem.
