AUDI Power Seats FIX

Audi A6 quattro 2008 3.0 TDI .
This car came with complain of power seats malfunction . Both front power / electrical seats wasn't working . After investigating the case we narrow it down to a wiring and plug issue . Guess this tests can be perform on A3 A4 A6 A8 and so on . The power seats need good 12V power supply , ground and working switches ofc :)

Good video, nicely instructive. Pulled my driver's seat out and found no loose connections, but will need to look further into the possible broken wire. My seat back will lean back, but not return back to upright. Driveable, but uncomfortable!!! Thanks for your help.

Did you ever find out the issue?

[@markej4801]

@@kingcochxo as it turns out, I sold the car to someone more savvy and he wasn't able to get it squared as well. Haven't heard if there is an end fix yet.

@@markej4801 jeez sounds like im in trouble 😂

[@jovanstojanovic9799]

Did you solve it? I have problem with passenger, won’t lean back but it goes forward

[@chasingwhitelines]

The idea of powering the seat with external power was paramount. Thank you. Found the wire to be broken in the floor pan halfway to the pillar. Pain in the you know what. Thank you for this great video. I was working on a 2004 Audi A4 B6 1.8T, same wiring scheme essentially, make sure to disconnect your battery if you have to go any further than the main harness at the seat, the yellow plug is the airbag and you dont want it to go off.

I know this is an old video but I have a set of 2003 Audi rs6 c5 front seats with power and memory. They are out of the car and I'm trying to test the switches before installing them in a car. When I hook up the main power and ground wire on the red plug to 12volts only the lumbar switch works(on both driver and passenger seats). Forward and back, up and down don't work. Have any ideas? I jumped 12volts to the motors themselves and they work. I find it hard to believe the switches on both seats are faulty. Any ideas?

Where can we get a set of instructions for the audi q7 suv

[@lisaln3987]

Changed out my engine and now my driver seat wont move.

[@gpamikebit]

Cheers man.... saved myself a few hundred dollars with the help of your video!

[@helenewatene3013]

I can move the seat add air but I can’t bloody recline it help!!!!

[@EJR20]

In an A4 b8 how would I replace the recline motor of the driver’s seat? Would I need to remove the back cover?

Здравейте, след сваляне на седалката спря да работи паметта на седалката. А6 2010г. Не е записала грешка! Моля за съвет Благодаря предварително

[@aadeline2309]

How can I fix my support lumbar audi B6 ?

[@Dide7ooo]

Здравейте,на q7,спря да работи местенето на двете предни седалки и изобщо не свети мемори контрола. Проверени са всички бушони,изчистени са грешки,но не могат да разберат от какво е.

[@HialeahLtClass]

Здравейте Момчета! Аз имам VW Тигуан 2016. Изглежда че шафтът от мотора до рейла под седалката се е откачил. Може ли да се постави обратно или трябва нов шафт?

[@zacklee5168]

Thank god I found your video! The power seat adjustment cover on my 2009 A6 has come loose and I couldn't find any video on how to fix it. Could you make a simple video of that please? Thank you in advance!

Hi, my electric seat on a Passat b6 2006 works fine but does not go up and down, I did have a recent low battery and cleared all fault codes. Now got a fault code relating to this. The seat will go back and forth and tilt just not up and down..? Fuse? Or sensor? Or wires? Any info where the sensor is located would be appreciated Thank you

[@bigtip8371]

I have the same on my Audi Q5..any resolution?

[@phillennox7291]

My seat moves forward and back but the tilt does not move. There is power to the seat but that switch will not work. What are your suggestions?

[@chasingwhitelines]

E334 and E365 on the diagram around the 5:15 mark in the video pause and write down the corresponding wire colors needed which show the positions of the rake and height adjustments at these positions. Id then work continuity from the motor plug in to the connector on the side of the seat, if youre good there, you may need to take that switch apart and see if you dont have corrosion inside. You can also try and power the motor or switch like he did with a jumper to the proper wire to isolate the switch itself. If the motor activates, then it's the switch. I've found broken wires every time I've run into electrical problems on mine. Good luck.

Brilliant work. Have problem that may be seat motors. But can't find good 2008 wire diagrams.. So please where can I source wiring diagram., will pay. Many thanks Retrofit of German seats full memory controls for English seats. Thanks

[@andresdongo9081]

Im trying to figure out, if i can power seat bypassing the memory function with a 12v circuit directly (i just need motion not heater)

[@user-pm3dx4te4f]

Did you supply energy to the seat?

[@helenewatene3013]

So you pulled it out and then did what it’s unclear what you did

[@lisaln3987]

When he pulled out the black plastic box he saw there was a broken wire. He reconnected them with a jump wire

[@TheLukeST]

Where did you find the diagram?

The program is called Elsa WIN

I have a 2017 Q7 with all the bells and whistles. Driver seat stopped working. Dealer could not figure it out. They think it's the control module. They want about $1000 to remove the seat (labor) and about another $2000 to replace the module. Luckily I got the extended warranty so it should cover it. About 4 months ago we also had a engine mount leaking fluid. That cost about $1500. The warranty covered it. About a year and a half ago another pressure tube in the engine compartment broke. At idle the car would whistle. Warranty covered it at about $900. This car is prone to weird failures. Not sure what we will be doing once the warranty expires. If you plan to get a high end Audi, I suggest getting the extended warranty.

[@crank3646]

Audi has the fame for the most unreliable cars in the branch for many years, talking about the luxury ones ofc. So nothing new there. After 5-8 years this cars will be all the time in the workshops. Or like many of the owners do, they drive it broken, until it leaves them stranded.

[@alejandrazavala3915]

@@crank3646 this is beyond true...had a Q7 and had so many issues traded for a toyota 4runner and loving it, also way better third row seat
