Here is what I discovered - an electrical short in the drivers pwr seat circuit.

There is a small electric silver box located behind the drivers side left foot kick plate and it was in very bad shape. Why it decided to give up the ghost i'll never know but it made for an interesting weekend.

I do not really need the pwr seat to work since I keep it all the way back but I would like to locate a new unit. Not sure what it does but. The original is beyond repair.

All that is stamped on the unit is "high mat" or "high max" and it only has 3 leads "red" "blue" and "white". the blue is hot, the red goes to the seat motor, and the white goes to the fuse block.

Any one know where I can get a part number for this unit?

Help.

Check usapartssupply.com part# S13.095C Known as a power seat relay. You can use any heavy duty accessory relay,with a little re wireing

Thanks both of you!

I failed to state the year and model of my car (61 starfire).

If you find that number please post it for me. It may help me locate one. My unit is so bad that I can not fix it like you did - all rusted to death inside.

Thanks I located one for 50 bucks, not sure why the one at Collectors.A.S. is so expensive.

The American way, make a buck however you can. If people will pay more for parts that are harder to get some will charge it. Being smart pays off though, good find
