Plug under seat

Feb 02, 2005 10 Replies

There's a hole in the carpet centered directly under the driver's seat with a wire coming out of it with a plug on the end. It looks factory. Anybody know what this is for? I can't find it in the manual. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the seat belt because I can see the wires for it off to the side.

Well.. you neglected to note whether or note you have power seats

No power seats so I guess the plug's there ready and waiting...?

Same thing in my 95. Judging from another 95 that has powerseats I'm pretty sure that's just what it's for. I have on under the passenger seat as well. It may need a relay/fuse in the fusebox though, haven't checked to see if it's live...

Would it be for the power to adjust the lumbar pad in the seat back?

If the wiring is the same for the '91 GT then that would be your fuse for the fuel pump.

Had mine go out one time, and that was were it was located.

If your car lacks a power driver's seat, that is what it is likely for.

That would be my suggestion as well.

Thanx everyone. I didn't think about power seats. My car doesn't have them, so that's probably what the plug is for. At first I thought it might be for something important and useful, like an ejection seat, but I don't have a sunroof so that'd be hard on the neck!
