Update. Firstly, I thought I had sealed up most leaks (sunroof etc). Working at passenger seat I had lifted up carpet and lent on the foam and water leaked out. I cut the foam out to dry (it was soaked). The floor pan was starting to rot. That moisture when heated could go up to the...

Many thanks. Top people. Top forum

Thanks again guys. Some wiring to check for sure and Discool, you are really cool; I would have been starting from scratch without your input. BTW the left hand seat does nothing with any combination of doors or ignition positions. That seat has not moved in at least 10 years ( but I cleaned the...

Many thanks. Brilliant. When I get home with more tools I will delve in. Cheers

My seats do not do as the handbook or your image state. The seat only moves with door open.

Thanks again. Just checked; driver's seat only moves with door open not with door closed and key in position 1 or 2. Not sure if that is normal. Like you I have hardly ever moved seats in fact only found this out when I went to recline the seat for a nap

Thanks for confirming my recollection of ECU linked to windows. Thanks for letting me know ECU has nothing to do with seats. I am not trying to fix window; fixed every one before (even made new 'bushes' for glass to sissor mechanism and every door catch before, so going to have a break there...

Yes, but this is not a switch issue as they have been cleaned and electricity is getting to motors (on RHS). LHS is a different matter. Why the rear window only goes down sometimes... plus the seat electrics... plus the amount of rainwater that used to get inside... Led me to think ECU could be...

Thanks for that.

Motor raises seat now. Implies it was dirty brushes? No dropping off seat. Will test voltage to motor another time. Photos attached. or maybe not. Motor

I think it is the motor. I have taken it out and apart. Cleaned brushes and spins better. Will fit and post a fix or not plus some photos if I can.

Have disconnected motor that drives up and down part. With the two cables disconnected the motor spins ONE way. With cables connected motor does not spin. Lack of volts? Busted motor? Now trying to get to wires to get motor out and on a bench.

1996 ES 300tdi So, having found info on here about switches I dismantled and cleaned. No joy. Driver seat only moves with door open. Clue or designed that way? But up/down simply produces 'clicking noise' underneath seat now. (The seat did lower a second ago) Tilt and fore and aft work ok...

Thank you. Via other websites I can see that S2 landrovers, but having been made to look like S3 (it has S3 gearbox too) go for up to £7k and above (if tax exempt) and if in good condition. So all I have to do is spray it, drop a new engine in (I have one). Or keep it for fun days. The...

Anyone likely to be looking to buy a landrover will be looking for a bargain and therefore less likely to give an honest opinion, so moving it here is questionable. I am not trying to sell it. I am trying to find out if it is worth selling or better to start using it again. It has been...
