    My drivers seat only raises only one side, kind of leans you out the window.
    It's the motor in front of the one that controls the seatback.

    Which cable should I be fixing? I don't want to ahve to pull both cables or pick the wrong one? My drivers seatback is messed up. the side closed the center seems to be turning counterclockwise and twisting toward the steering wheel. Its hard to explain. but anyway I dont know if that means this is the broken side or the other side is the good side? Basically when I sit in it. I am looking slightly out the window instead of center. Meaning the seat is forcing me to look left at my side mirror.

    Repairing the cable is pretty simple. Plus you only have to deal with one end of the cable and not both.
