water in the OBD I

:crying:My car was subject to flood waters, August 19th 2011. The waters flooded the interior of the car and submerged the OBD I. When the flood waters receeded, I was able to turn over the car and drive it. After removing the car from the flood waters, parked it in higher place and used shop-vac to suck out water.

Passenger seat functioned -ok
heater-ok
sun/moon roof - ok
battery - ok but was shorting out
htd seats - not ok
drivers seat - not ok: seat will not move for/aft and seat will not decl/recl.
water did get into the OBD, yet, devices that work off OBD seem to work fine.

Q: Would be be true that the OBD I is still salvagable, or should I get rid of it?:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying: 1995 Olds Aurora

What do you mean by obd1, that is the early emissions/engine control unit from 95 back.

:meant: The OBD in my car, the 1995 Aurora the OBD was submerged in flood waters. If it is not the OBD them it might be the computer module which sits under the drivers seat.

The seat computer is under the seat. It is also the memory module for the outside mirrors. So they are probably not working. Inside that computer box is a couple of chips and a bunch of relays. The heated seat controller is mounted to the underside of the seat towards the front. It is the small box with lots of the wires coming out of it. These are both normally available at a junk yard.

The thing I would be worried about is all of the other computers that may have been under water. There are several under the dash. Also the water in the seat motors will accelerate rust in them and will greatly reduce there life spans.

To get the seat out you will need a 13mm socket or wrench. There are 4 bolts that hold the seat to the track. After removing those 4 bolts lean the seat back and start disconnecting everything.
