Hey guys

Im pretty sure they are but want to double check, are the thick blue and white wires on this seat recliner motor live and neutral?

Iv got a recliner motor that only moves one way
I might need to manually reverse power to the motor directly with a jump starter if a 'seat position reset' doesn't work.

Thanks

For anyone this might help, They were the live and neutral.

I removed plug (all the wires you see are connected to the same plug)

Then connected electrical wire directly to the motors live and neutral pins (big ones)
Put a piece of cardboard in-between wires to act as a barrier to stop wires accidentally touching

Then it was just a case of turning on my 12v jump starter

Then I was able to power my seat motor both ways by touching the wires onto the live and neutral (reversing the wires for each direction)

So I managed to get my seat backrest into good position and unplugged the motor so it cant move again! lol

Now iv gotta look into a new seat module as I know my motor works!
I also know my door switch works because I can hear and feel the motor click when its pressed.

Seems the modules gone mad!

Hope this helps anyone else with a similar issue

Assuming thats the Mercedes star reader? I was thinking about taking it to a specialist with the expensive star scanner.
Guess it worth a go! Thanks for the advice
