• Q: How to replace the front seat motor for the power recliner on 2002 Buick LeSabre?

  A: The first step for power recliner motor replacement in front seats is to disable the SIR system. Begin by removing the front seat followed by detachment of the inner seat adjuster track cover together with the inner recliner trim cover. To get to the power recliner motor users need to partially take off the seat back cover alongside the pad. Follow the process to disconnect both electrical connectors from the power recliner motor and recliner position sensor while present. Begin by first removing the push-on nut from the end of the recliner rod followed by the fastener which holds the power recliner motor onto the seat back frame. The technician extracts the recliner rod from both seat back recliner and power recliner motor before entirely removing the power recliner motor from its seat base. Unclip the recliner position sensor in cases where it exists on the recliner motor. The installer should mount the recliner position sensor to the recliner motor before inserting the power recliner motor into the seat back frame. Reinstall the new push-on nut on the end of the recliner rod as it passes through the power seat back recliner motor and the recliner assembly. Fasten the power recliner motor fastener onto its seat by tightening it until it reaches 9 N.m (80 lb in). Begin wiring harness installation into its factory position and join electrical connectors with power recliner motor and recliner position sensor (if equipped) before putting back inner recliner trim cover and the remaining parts. The last step includes reinstalling the front seat along with enabling the SIR system.
