Description
Overview
This Electric Seat Control is designed specifically for the passenger seat of Citroën C5 models. It enables precise adjustment of the electric seat position, enhancing comfort and ergonomics during driving. This part is commonly referenced by product code 8914AK, often sought after by professional mechanics and DIY car enthusiasts repairing or upgrading Citroën or Peugeot vehicles.
Function and Importance
The electric seat control module manages the electronic motor mechanisms inside the seat base to provide smooth and responsive seat motions such as forward/backward sliding, tilting, and height adjustment. Over time, this component may fail due to wear, electrical faults, or intermittent connectivity issues, often leading to a lack of seat mobility and driver discomfort. Replacing this part restores full functionality and safety for vehicle occupants.
Compatibility and Fitment
This control unit fits Citroën C5 models, typically produced in first and second generations. It is especially designed for the front passenger seat cushion. Since vehicle specifications may vary, it is important to verify compatibility by providing the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) at the time of order to ensure proper fit and operation.
Installation Advice
Replacing the electric seat control generally requires removal of the seat from the vehicle floor. Disconnect the battery to avoid electrical shorts and remove the seat cushion trim to access the control unit. Unplug the electrical connectors and remove the faulty control module. Installation of the new part is the reverse of removal. Professional installation is recommended for safety and optimal performance.
