Testing seat adjustment motors
I seem to remember that this can be done but have never tried.
I'm just wondering if I can test the adjustment motors in a pair of front seats I've been offered, with them out of the car. The seats owner tells me that I need to connect power to the red two pin connector block. Is this correct I don't want to set the air bags off by accident The seats are Recaro type taken out of a 1998/9 PF S8 Thanks in advance for any help offered |

Yes you can. The airbag is the small yellow connector so avoid that and you'll be fine. I have a 'pondering chair' in the workshop which is a Recaro mounted on castors, with the adjustment motors hooked up to a battery so it still moves I'll grab a pic of the connector this afternoon if I get a chance

I thought this was a pondering chair.
I've considered making a chair for my workshop from a D2 Recaro seat a few times. I was thinking I might try combining the base from an old gas-lift chair to raise it to bench height. Not sure how stable that would be though ... might need stabilisers to prevent it toppling
