Mechanism for dropping down seat bed is jammed

[toryturner]

Hi VW Campers,

I cannot collapse the seat as the mechanism appears to have jammed. Do I need to take the back off the seat?

Many thanks

How often have you operated it? Mine sometimes needs a good yank (that sounds very bad but you know what I mean..)

Hi, Many thanks for reply. Have yanked and yanked to no joy. The cable may have become twisted and now just feels stuck. Am I able to remove the rear of the seat to gain access?

Regards

Hi,

How new is your van and have you lowered the seat many times before?

You may be able to access it by lifting the seat base.

It's restricted by a strap on the side near the fridge... you can see/remove this easily if you remove the small "load through" panel on the seat front.

It may help, but can't guarantee it... but it's what I'd try.
