• Q: How to replace the horizontal seat motor on 2008 Cadillac SRX?

  A: Beginning motor replacement for the horizontal seat adjuster requires disabling the SIR system. Start by taking out the seat cushion to get to the horizontal seat adjuster motor. Unplug electrical connectors from the motor after you detach screws securing the adjuster motor's top cover. You must pull the seat adjuster drive cable out of the motor before taking off the seat adjuster motor. Additionally, remove the short connector located on the seat adjuster. During installation insert the square-end of the short drive cable into the seat adjuster before sliding the motor onto the cable. First seat the long drive cable inside the motor before inserting both cables fully within the seat adjuster. The motor retaining screws need installation followed by a 5 N.m (44 lb in) torque setting. Reconnect all electrical connectors while placing the seat cushion back in its position. First adjust the SIR system before configuring memory seat calibration which requires installation.
