Seat release sticking - Saab 900 '96 3 door

Feb 23, 2007 1 Replies

Hi folks,



I've got a '96 900 3-door and the release locks on both front seats are sticking preventing the seats from being easily folded forwards to allow access to the back seats. How easy is it to get to the release cable/linkages in the seats to adjust them and has anyone else done this... please give advice on how to fix this problem as I've a kid on the way and need to be able to ensure safe access to the back seats!



Cheers!



There was a TSB on this issue that has to do with placing washers on the cable in some way but the basic issue as I recall is that the cables stretch. It's been a while, and I never did the job, but I recall a lot of cursing coming from people who had to dig in and replace them.
