hi guys

i'm trying to tap into the plug under the drivers seat to use my electric seat but it's not working. i'm guessing its capped of somewhere because i only have a magna. can anyone help me on how to get power to that plug

cheers

just take some power from anything that is used when the ignition is on accessories...cig lighter etc.
Maybe check to see if you need a realy slotted into the case under the bonnet or a fuse in the dash

I wired mine up to the back of the ciggy lighter. Never had a prob.

yeh i know i could wire it up to other stuff..i have everything else wired up lol it's just that i thought since there already is a plug and it's all nice i would like to use it if possible.

cheers

Where do these electric seats come from? are they mitsu or after market?

Also, Running power from the cigy down the center to the seat would be best. Otherwise trace the plug you have back and see if its acctualy connected to power. Might just be there doing nothing cos the seat wasn't standard.

yeah i would like to know too - i presume they are the verada leather seats.

Aspec owns a TL VR-X and his car came with electric drivers seat standard...(Not to mention side air bags)

Could go thru the BEM. Go the easy way and still use the plug

My Verada has electric seats standard

Seat goes up

Seat goes down

Seat goes up

Seat goes down

Much fun :)

I'm actually surprised there isn't any power running to it. Check the work shop manual if you have it, to see where it should be plugged to.

yeh i don't have a manual. do you have one to check where it goes to? i'm guessing they dont just leave live power lying around when it's not in use lol

I just had a look at the circuit diagrams and looms. All looks fine as the harness's are one for all.

The workshop manual says theres 1 fuse for the power windows, seat and sunroof (1 fuse does them all). Double check that this fuse actually exists. The fuse is in the fuse box in the engine bay and should be a 40A fuse.

ah ok thanks. i saw the power window fuse in the owners manual. the wire must not be hooked up then. i'll tear it all apart on the weekend lol

it fully looks like it's all wired up somewhere in the fuse box. can anyone shed some light as to where the connection might be disconnected on the magnas?

Thanks
