Hello all, I have just installed a set of leather seats in my V70, and the driver's seat has all the electric adjustment features. Only problem is, there is no electrical connector for me to plug it in! This means I'm left with no seat adjustments until I can figure out how to wire the seats in! I therefore need some details on how to connect the seat. I assume it just requires 12V power. Perhaps someone out there can furnish me with a picture of the connector when plugged into the loom, so I can get some clues from the colours? Once I know which pins to use in the plug, I can then work out where to take power from. Tapping into the cigar-lighter socket seems possible, and the power would be switched by the ignition then too. I'd also like a circuit diagram if possible. I have the haynes manual for this vehicle, but the circuit diagrams in there leave much to be desired. The connector in question plugs into the ECU which is mounted under the front edge of the seat. If someone has this type of seat, please get your digital camera out for me!! E-mail address is snipped-for-privacy@postmaster.co.uk In the meantime, I'll drive with the seat too close to the pedals, and with my head sticking out of the roof! At least I now have a heated seat again, my other one broke last winter. Any help appreciated. Joe Landy Peterborough UK.
