Miscellaneous micro switch under drivers seat.

[Matt Cup]

Can anyone identify where this micro switch lives? It was just hanging off under the seat and looks like it’s got broken tabs. It’s part of the seatbelt/airbag wiring look by the looks of things.

That’s the driver’s seat position switch, it tells the airbag ECU when the seat is in the correct position (non-tilted - i.e. letting someone in the back).

Thanks for that. Do you where on the seat it is situated I presume runner? Also should the airbag light illuminate? It doesn’t by the way.

It’s been a few years since I removed my OEM seats, but yeah i’m sure it mounts into the runner.

I think the airbag light only illuminates if the switch is disconnected from the loom itself; I had to leave the switch wired in-place when I fitted my bucket seats or the airbag light wouldn’t go out.
