780 T 700

Okey, wrong information in the other replies.

You can actually find a little hole in the plastic at the left side of the drivers seat (right side of the passengers seat) where you can insert a special tool that you can find in the trunk. See the users manual.

This will work if it's just the motor that's not working. But often that is not the problem. I have had to fix both my seats because the wire had become so short that it would only move one side of the seat backrest and then it would jam. If this is the case you must take the backrest off and shorten the wire sleeve on one side to make it work again.

So, if you can hear the motor working and the backrest moves a little bit but then will "twist" you can't fix it by using the special tool.

The special tool is a short piece of wire with a square end and a handle.

Hope you see what I mean!
