Power seat switch
I broke the passenger power seat switch this evening.

Looked in the files section and saw where the 80's Birds had a switch from a
Chrysler product.

Been diggin and haven't found it on the Inet.

Can anybody supply the part number for a power seat switch for a 1985 PT40?

Thanks

Jay, we found them at a local auto salvage yard. Had to take our own tools. Cost 10 bucks.
Don't know if they are available on the net.

Power seat switch
updavte on power seat switch assembly....

The power seat switches are mounted in a housing made for Chrysler products in
the 1970's and 80's. The complete switch assembly from Chrysler is part#2926202.

This #2926202 runs about $175 on E-bay because the Mopar guys want them.

The real deal is this:

The chrome housing and switches come complete under the part#2926202(a Chrysler
part).
The switches that are inside the chrome housing are available at NAPA(part#ECH
PA104) and Advance Auto Parts(part#BWD S9012) as well as Amazon and a few
others.

If you want new switches, remove the panel from the Bird, remove the switches
from the Chrome Chrysler housing/mount and install new switches in the
(Chrysler)housing.

New, they start at about $45(Amazon.com) and go to about $75(O'Reilly Auto
Parts, THE highest price parts in the business)

seems that the switches are pretty much standard on everything 70's and 80's GM,
Ford, BMW, Chrysler, etc. The housing that they mount in is what makes them
specific for an application.

The good news is, the switches are abundant, the chrome Chrysler housing is not.
So protect the housing while removing the old switches!
