Well, it looks like my seat motor decided to give up. Armature turns free, brushes are fine but no go.

Anyone out there have one. Thanks tbbahner@embarqmail.com

Here is a copy of the picture testing the 6-way bench seat motor:

For those with the 2 way seat motors it is a more direct test method as you attach ground to body, and 12+ to each of the two contacts in the connector. One contact will turn forward and eon will turn backwards:

Yeah, disassembled and cleaned up, armature/shaft turns free, brushes are fine.

Grounded motor housing and put 12v to green and yellow wires, no body home.,

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments
