I'm busy doing a project for my car and it involved taking out my passenger seat. My pasenger seat is manually opperated but there is a wire that runs out of the floor and was attached to the bottom of the seat. Is that wire there for a power seat¿

I'm going to either guess seat belt sensor, so that the passenger side airbag will go off if somebody's in it, or a side airbag harness.

 

[Fett]

It's the side airbag harness.

 

[Drivin4fun]

It wasn't hooked up to anything, but it was attached to the bottom of the passenger seat. Should it be pluged into something. I don't think I have side air bags.

If it's the side airbag harness and you don't have side airbags, only goes to reason why it wasn't hooked up

 

[Drivin4fun]

True. Thanks guys. I'll post pics of my car mod later on, if I can ever figure how to post pics. Thanks again.

i have side air bags...and i cant find anything that extra wire will plug into (that it will reach) i don't think it has to do with the side air-bag but im no expert either

I had to take my car in for a new fuel pump at the dealer and while I was there I asked them about the wire. They told me it was for a power seat. I assumed that before but I wasn't sure. I'm still confused about it cause I never heard of a cougar with two power seats. If I bought another driver seat could I put it on the passenger side so I could have two power seats¿

That would be a cool mod but the power seats move so damn slow on my 99 that it would just be a pain. Hopefully the 2000+ are better because I want to get my hands on those 35th ann. silver/black ones when I get money for them.

the driver seat would probably fit the passenger side's track but i think the seat itself with the plastic piece on the side wouldn't fit. i would like to try though...........i think the passenger seat sits to high.

You could try and get your hands on the power seat bits for the UK spec Cougar as it is right hand drive the bits would fit your passenger seat ok

 

[Drivin4fun]

Now that's a good idea Damo. I'll look into it but I don't think that I can come up with the $$$, expecially for shipping. That alone would probly cost more then the seat itself.

MAYBE ITS A GROUND WIRE

MAYBE ITS A GROUND WIRE

A ground wire¿ Could you explain¿

 

[Loyalty]

Ground wire means its for GROUND!!! What more explanation is needed?

 

[Drivin4fun]

Come on Chris, I know what a ground is, but why would you need one on a seat¿

Ignernt and Fett's answer seems real logical but I still think that it's for a power seat. I have a question for someone out there that has their seats out. Can you please try to plug the wire on the passenger side into your driver side seat and let me know if it fits¿

 

[saidsevn]

anything and everything electrical needs a ground
