Broken Passenger Seat in a 735il

[defranco]

Hi,

I recently purchased a 1988 735il. Very nice machine. Runs good handles better. One problem however is that the passenger seat does not work. This would not normally be a problem but it is stuck in a position that no one can sit it. I don't actually care if it works but I would like to at least be able to set it in a position in which a normal size person can sit it. Are there any ways to manually adjust this seat?

Thanks!

Probably just a blown fuse. Check fuse #43, which you probably haven't checked because IT'S UNDER THE BACK SEAT at the Rear Power Distribution Panel.

To remove the back seat, lift up and out on the seat cushion.

If the fuse blew because the seat has the twist problem, here's a link with info of how to fix that:
