1990 Power Seat Doesn't Work
Hi, my grandparents just picked my '90 XJ that has power seats. The driver's side doesn't work. Are replacements still made or am I going to have to look through junk yards? TIA

Is there power to the switch? I thought you were studying some electrical stuff.

Not quite yet. The semester doesn't start until august and the class doesn't start until halfway through that. And I haven't seen it yet. I just want to be prepared.
