2002 Cadillac Seville Seat Motor Parts Questions & Experts Answers

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

  A: One should begin replacing the power recliner motor for the front seat by disabling the SIR system. The first step is to take away the seat assembly together with the seat back trim cover. Remove the retaining clip from the recliner motor side of the recliner shaft before pulling the recliner shaft free from the motor as well as the recliner sensor which may be part of the memory seat equipment. The front seat electrical connection for both the recliner motor and sensor must be removed from beneath the seat and the sensor should be decoupled from the recliner motor when present. Disconnect the fastener from the recliner motor to take the motor out of the seat back frame. After placing the recliner motor onto its position on the seat back frame users must fasten it with the specified fastener while torquing it to 9 N.m (80 lb in). The installation of the recliner motor electrical connector starts with connecting it to the motor and followed by sensor attachment for memory seats through motor snapping. Route the recliner shaft again through the sensor and motor before you join the electrical connector to the recliner sensor when needed. Reinstall the retaining clip onto the recliner shaft before reinstalling it on the seat back trim cover and the seat assembly. Finally, enable the SIR system.
