Leather Seats Not Powered?

[jasevr4]

I finally got my S1 Stag today. It's taken a while!

Anyway, the leather seats won't move forward/back/up/down/around.

What should I be checking? I noticed in the fusebox that there is a fuse for the "Power Interior" or something. I've never seen a fuse like that before so I'll be hunting around for it this weekend I guess. Is there any wiring or anything obvious that I should be checking?

Thanks

if you have a multimeter, check there is power when ignition is on at the large white plug under the seats, its easy to spot. Not sure where the fuse is, but if neither seat is working it would be a good place to start

The fuse is in the fuse box under the bonnet. It's a weird looking fuse.. Those square ones that are completely enclosed in plastic except for the base which is a "female" plug end.

I took it to the local parts place and they just gave me a blank stare. Any idea what stores to try for these fuses?

Nissan will be your friend

Oh really? Nissan is the only place to stock them? Thanks for that mate.

ummm you sure thats not a relay your looking at?

can you post up a pic?

and yeah.. one of the joys of owning an import .. getting parts is not always a straight forward affair

but .. keeps you entertained.. and when you find a good autoparts store stick to them

( shameless plug for Repco Vic Park in W.A ! )

Well I switched the fuses around but no luck.
