• Q: How to replace the front seat motor for the power recliner on 2005 Buick LeSabre?

  A: One must disable the SIR system before starting to replace the front seat power recliner motor. Begin by taking off the front seat before separating the inner seat adjuster track cover together with the inner recliner trim cover. The power recliner motor will become accessible by partially taking off both the seat back cover and pad. The power recliner motor requires detachment of electrical connections together with recliner position sensor connections when present. The replacement of the front seat power recliner motor begins with removing a push-on nut from the end of the recliner rod as well as the fastener that secures the recliner motor to the seat back frame. The recliner rod must slide first from the seat back recliner before it can slide out of the power recliner motor. Remove the power recliner motor from its seat position. To continue proceed remove the female recliner position sensor from the recliner motor. First place the recliner position sensor on the recliner motor while ensuring to have the recliner position sensor equipped and then put the power recliner motor into the seat back frame. Introduce a new push-on nut onto the end of the recliner rod after sliding it through the power seat back recliner motor and recliner assembly. The power recliner motor fastener should be installed and tightened with 9 N.m (80 lb in) torque. Replace the wiring harness back to its original spot and attach electrical connectors to both the power recliner motor and recliner position sensor if present before putting on inner recliner trim cover and seat adjuster track cover, seat back cover and pad. As a last step you must install the front seat while enabling the SIR system.
