THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT LATCH MANUAL RELEASE






NOTE: If the electric seat leg latch release actuator and cable assembly is inoperative, or one or more leg latches fail to release, it will be necessary to manually release the latch or latches. The following procedure should be performed to eliminate the risk of seat component damage.

NOTE: The leg latch release cables are located on the outer edges of the seat legs. Depending on the inoperative latch, it will be necessary to access the area between the two inboard legs of the 60/40 seats or the area between the outboard seat legs and quarter trim panel.

NOTE: If the seat is inoperative due to a foreign object prohibiting one of the seat legs to latch, the following procedure will need to be performed and the seat lifted off the floor striker. Once the object is removed the seat should function properly with the use of the D-pillar switch.

1. Access the effected leg (1). The leg latch release cables are located on the outer edge of the seat legs. Depending on the inoperative latch, it will be necessary to access the area between the two inboard legs of the 60/40 seats or the area between the outboard seat legs and quarter trim panel.
2. Find the leg latch release cable end (2) where it attaches to the latch stud.
3. Lift up on the cable end until the leg latch (3) releases from the floor striker.
