today when i went to drive the car, i used the seat memory function like how i normally do when i get in the car and i noticed the seat didnt move foward. so then i tired just moving the button foward to move the seat foward and all i hear is a click sound. all the other functions of the power seats work. it goes up and down fine and the back support moves backward and foward. its just the seat dosnt slide foward or backward. any one else have this problem? i checked some of the fuses but it later hit me that if some parts of the seats can move why not this. but the fuse to the eletronic parts is fine. any one know any solution to fix this? do you guys think nissan would fix this. even tho it is out of warrenty? any help will be helpfull. thanks.

I assume you have a 6th gen since you posted here... though you have 1993 listed.
Either way if it's out of warranty it is exactly that.


If in fact you have an 04-06 there is a recall on the wiring. So check into that and maybe it will get fixed. Check the STICKY for more info.

i personally have a 3rg gen but bro has a 6th gen which i also drive alot. i have actually checked the stickets on the wiring info. but i didnt think it was that since that was for the heating. i guess not, now that i think about it.

My driver's seat in my 5th gen did the same thing. The dealer ended up replacing the seat motor.

hmm was the car under warrenty tho? i have a feeling thats what it is since i do hear a clicking sound. but yeasterday morning i tried it and the seat moved a cm and stoped and i pressed it in the other direction and stoped and then it just clicked after that.

what does it matter warranty or not? either way it gets fixed. one way you pay the other you don't.

my point was that the recall needs to be done regardless. if it doesn't fix it, you can atleast find out what's causing it then just refuse the work if you have to pay.

I had the same problem, however it went away ever since I had the seat wiring recall work done.

so the dealer should fix that for free then right?

yes there is a TSB, but it is only free if your warranty is current.

TSB only tell the mech how to repair something. it is not a recall so not free.

deamm. this car is out of warreny. 36K miles or above is out of warrenty rite?

Don't let that deter you. If the dealer won't do it now, tell them you want it under goodwill since it is a serious design defect. Failing that, call Nissan directly and plead your case with them.

I have an 04 and JUST TODAY my driver's seat and steering wheel both stopped moving in all directions. The passenger seat is fine tho. I'm thinking it's a fuse for me perhaps, but I think your issue might be the TSB that someone already posted.

it is the problem and i was the one who posted it. haha. thats what i was thinking when this problem first happned to me but then it hit me there is power going to it since it was able to move up and down and the back support was able to move.

any one know how much the kit costs? if i am able to buy it from nissan.
