C'mon people....Let's provide a REAL solution, not just a way to destroy the seats.

Might try on the Electronics board, since the techies hang out there & this deals with the electronic controls.

Good luck!

Re: how do you deflate the lumbar seats? switches don't work !!!

Wait so unhooking the air lines isnt a good solution? That dumps the air does it not?

Or am I not understanding whta you want. Do you want to deflate the seats...or FIX the seats. If you want to deflate them pulling the air lines would let the air out. They are just air bladders. If you want to FIX them, then the electronics section will help, and I can give you some pointers.

There are usually breakers for the power seats. So that for instance if you held the button forward until the seat reached the end of the track, and kept holding it, it would trip the breaker instead of blowing a fuse. Those breakers CAN go bad...so there's a place to start. It could be that the switches are busted, or a power wire is broken somewhere. You really gotta dig in and start testing things out.

The fuse for the seats is an inline fuse located under the driver's seat.
