Default How to repair, not replace, broken seat switch.

It isn’t elegant but it works and it cost 12 cents. I looked online for a fix but couldn’t find anything. If there’s a better solution please add it to this thread.


This what was left. Everything worked but no button.

This is a new button that I bought from SunCoast.

This is the original length of the plastic wall anchor.

This is after I cut it flush with the button.

No glue. It’s tight enough to stay on and work. It’s a little fragile but most of the time it’s just me and my wife in the car. Grandkids won’t be allowed to adjust seat.
Someone accidentally broke the silver switch that moves seat on passenger side. Instead of spending hundreds I finally thought of a way to fix it. I used one of these from Home Depot.

I cut it to length and inserted it into the switch then pushed on what was left of the white piece that sticks out from motor.
