  • problem with seat back positioner

    I laid my seat back rest as far down as it would go waiting for my wife and when I tried to re-position it to drive, it wouldn't latch, just goes all the way forward. I suspect a pawl spring broke or likesuch. Is it possible to get to the ratchet to repair it? I have to push back against the spring to a plastic box to position it now. At least the box pushes through the backrest and gives better lumbar support. LOL
