Hey i think there was already a topic of this but couldn't seem to find it but my passenger seat won't fold forward to let some one in the back i can move backwards and forwards but thats it any ideas? about to stick my head down there to have a look.

don't worry forum expert here on this, will post simple solution when tour de france has finished at 8.00pm, in the meantime get a large flat blade screwdriver at the ready.

if your cable hasn't broken - the seat handle should move and then stick solid half way, if the cable was broken it would be completely loose - then you need to use a large flat blade screwdriver and use the side of the seat hook support bracket as a leverage point. Get under the seat at the rear, jam the blade under the hook but balanced on the side plate, tricky, better if somebody else operates the seat handle, use some leverage and while operating the handle with some force not enough to snap it the seat should just release, try the other side too, one of the sides will free it.
When you have it reclined get some sandpaper out, sand some paint/metal of both the hooks and the bars, it is a simple case of too tight a fit from manufacturer. Grease it all up.

Wow thanks for that i stuck my head under and the cable closer to the drivers side has snaped thanks again

oopps too late, this is why they snap.

I have done the above on to my car. The problem I think is the seat handles in my case. If you pull really slow, it will work if u go quick it will misses the wire and u have to pull the handle off in order to get it grip the wire again. anyone know how much these are to buy?

ah cheers i know a ford mechanic that said he wouldn't mind sorting it out for me. say the cables are a couple of quid even from ford lol

fitting them it very time consuming and fiddly
