Power Seat Gear Replacement

Postby goinkster » Sat Feb 29, 2020 7:28 am

Good morning. Has anyone replaced their power seat gear for forward and back movement? I have an 08 with power seats. The driver side will move but it judders forward and back without me in the seat. It will not move if I am in the seat. I am having trouble sourcing a gear that lists as a fit for a Pathfinder. Thank you.

Being that I'm so new here, I'd like to ask for someone to chime in.

maybe this issue is a worn out burned out electrical motor?

It could be a weak motor, but the seat motor and rails need to be inspected to figure out what's going on with it. For parts, your best bet is to get another seat from an auto salvage yard. If you find one that has the same material and is in good shape, swap the whole seat. Otherwise, just swap the parts you need. This site might help you locate one:
