Lumbar Supprt lever

Since I did so well with my last question....

I have a 96 SE with 144K miles. The lumbar support lever on the drivers seat failed sometime last year. Before I go and open the seat up I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge or experience with this. So the Lumbar support is stuck at the least amount of support and the lever moves easily with no resistance.

Any thoughts?

Regards,

Joel

Try tightening the mounting screw.

Otherwise remove the lever and see if you can tell which parts are stripped. I'm sure the dealer would be glad to charge you an outrageous price for some replacement parts.

I don't know if yours can be this simple but a few years ago mine started slipping too. All it was was the philips screw in the center. I just tightened it. Try that first. Good luck.
