I've done a search, but can't find the exact answer i'm looking for. My driver seat in my 95 GT will go forward, up and down, but it will not go backwards. When you try to move it back there is no sound or anything. No motor sound, no clicking. Nothing. So I pulled the seat out and pulled the switch off the seat. Cracked open the switch and tried to clean it up, but still the same problem. So i've decided for now that it's not that big of deal because the seat stays all the way back anyway (i'm 6'5" ). Now I can't figure out how to manually push the seat all the way back. What do I disconnect or turn to get the seat all the way back without the switch? I figured I would just worry about it later since none of the junkyards around here have a switch, but I can't get it all the way back. Any suggestions?

if the power seat is not important to you,a manual track from a fox body will work.

Had this hapepen to mine, most likely the contacts are worn out in the switch.

Test and use this at your own risk: It looks like the power feed to the switch is B/W. And R/W is the wire for the rearward movement of the seat.

FWIW, if you do the manual seat track swap, figure you will need a seat-track extender. I had to do this on mine after the same kind of thing happened. The caveat with the extender is that it raises the seat up a bit (if you have headroom issues now........).

Good luck.
