Sorry to flood RWD with my 960 queries but I just got it and cannot wait to get it officially on the road where it belongs. It has been sitting since Febuary and was not well taken care of at all. The 117k miles is what attracted me.

What I have now is a seat back with a dead motor, probably. But what I wanted to know is if there is any manual way of raising the seat back and leaving it there permanently. I have had the seat out and did the shortening of the cable routine to get the forward/backward movement working again so I have no fear of pulling the seat. I suppose it would not kill me to test the motor and see if it is simply dead and get another at a junk yard but I really do not need the adjustment of the seat back. There is not any sound at all when I try to do the tilt so I do not know if power is even getting to the motor.

Thanks very very much,
Jim Lee
