I have a 2004 Toyota Camry and have problem with driver power seat. The back rest of the seat tilts back ok however when tilting forward it doesnt go all the way forward. While it tilts forward it seems that one side of the back rest moves quicker. If someone could post a link to the seat assembly or give me a suggestion how to fix it it will be great.

with power seats, the back rest isn't designed to tilt all the way forward. from a side on view of the seat, the maximum angle it will tilt forward is around 30 degrees or so, and not any more.

as for one side moving faster than the other, it's your imagination. on the right hand underside of the seat, there's the power seat reclining motor. from this motor rotates a track that rotates inside sockets on the left and right side of the seats subframe, where the back rest mount attaches. if there were 2 motors running the reclining function of the seat, then it's possible one side moves faster than the other. however, there's only one motor running the back rest so your seat is running ok.

I had a look again and it seems that side closer to the door is pulling a bit faster. It really feels unconfortable to drive. I will try to have a look myself tho I have no idea :rolleyes:

If anyone has any shematics it will be very helpful.

then try using a little bit of grease of the opposite side of the roller. obviously theres some sort of excess friction on the roller somewhere thats slowing the other side down.

      Rav4 2016 ZSA42R 2WD CVT failure

      Hi Andrew, just wanted to see if you were able to get this fixed? What was the issue in the end? My car has just started making this same noise (2016 Rav4 - 97000km) and I'm worried. I've had the transmission fluid checked and replaced but the noise is still there.

      05 hiace ecu

      Hi all, new member needing some help with an issue that has me stumped, replacing ignition and had a short somehow. Van would not crank or obviously start, found blown fuse and replaced, now car cranks but won’t start, no check engine light when ignition is first turned on and scan tool will not communicate with ecu. All fuses good except fuse 26 on instrument panel fuse box has no power. almost convinced my ecu is cooked but before outlaying for a new one thought someone may either advise another possible cause or confirm ecu likely the issue, appreciate any advise or experience similar.

      1989 Hilux Low Voltage

      Hey all, recently got a 1989 Hilux with the petrol 22r engine. I had plugged a voltage meter into the 12v socket because I suspected an electrical problem as the battery light had been on. It had read 11.9 volts initially but the more I drive the more it deteriorates, currently sitting at 10.9 (after several hours of driving) when the engine is running. This obviously doesn't charge the battery and it can't start by itself. I have since replaced the battery and yesterday I did the alternator with a brand new one. I've checked all the grounds that I can see but it's still sitting at 10.9 volts and deteriorates over time. I was thinking the voltage regulator is the next best bet? I looked at it visually and it seems fine. Anyone got any other ideas? Note: I had a very long drive the other week and on one occasion the voltage spiked back up to 15+ volts for a short while before going back down to about 11.4 And yeah I'm trying not to drive it too much because I know it's probably damaging the battery being on such low voltage. Any help would be awesome thanks!
