Technical Information

• Manufacturer: Stellantis / Peugeot
• Model: Peugeot 407
• Product Codes: 9647058177, 8914ES
• Additional Numbers: 8899PP

Fitment And Compatibility

Fits Peugeot 407 models equipped with an electric driver’s seat. Confirm that the part numbers match the one being replaced. This control assembly is typically used on left-hand drive and right-hand drive variants where factory electric seat adjustment was fitted.

Function And Application

The unit provides user control of the driver seat position by sending commands to the seat motors and sensors. Typical functions include:

• Fore and aft movement
• Seat height adjustment
• Seat cushion tilt
• Backrest recline
• Control of lumbar support where fitted

These controls ensure ergonomic driver positioning and may interface with other vehicle comfort systems depending on the vehicle specification.

Common Faults And Why The Part Fails

Failures usually arise from electrical and mechanical wear rather than the plastic trim itself. Typical causes include:

• Connector corrosion or poor contact due to moisture ingress or dirty pins
• Wear of internal switch contacts from frequent use leading to intermittent operation or complete failure
• Motor overloads or short circuits in the seat motors feeding back into the control switch/module
• Damage from impact, spills, or foreign objects trapped under the seat

Regular inspection of connectors and ensuring the seat rails are free to move help reduce premature faults.

Installation Recommendations

Recommended installation steps for experienced technicians and competent DIYers:

• Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting to avoid short circuits and to protect vehicle electronics.
• Move the seat to an accessible position, remove plastic trim covers and unbolt the seat from the floor rails as required.
• Carefully disconnect the multi-pin connectors and note any locking tabs; inspect pins for corrosion or damage.
• Replace the control unit or switch assembly, connect connectors firmly, and secure all fasteners and trim pieces.
• Reconnect the battery and test all seat functions for full range of movement before re-installing the seat completely.

For workshop safety follow the vehicle manufacturer’s assembly instructions and torque settings where applicable.

Replacement Procedure (Overview)

General replacement steps for experienced mechanics or competent DIYers:

• Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting work to prevent short circuits and preserve safety.
• Move the seat to a position that provides access to mounting bolts and connectors.
• Remove lower trim panels or seat side covers to access the switch/control module and wiring harness.
• Carefully unplug electrical connectors and detach the control module from the seat frame or trim (note connector tabs and securing clips).
• Install the replacement unit in reverse order, reconnect connectors and reattach trim. Reconnect battery and verify full function of all seat movements.

Exact removal and refitment steps can vary by submodel; always follow manufacturer service instructions where available.

Installation Recommendations

• Always disconnect the battery before disassembly and wait a few minutes to allow capacitors/vehicle systems to discharge.
• Handle connectors and PCB-mounted switches with care to avoid damage to pins and plastic clips.
• Inspect wiring harnesses and connector pins for corrosion or damage and repair any issues before final assembly.
• After installation, cycle all seat functions to confirm smooth operation and check for any fault indicators on the vehicle.
• If the seat has memory functions tied to vehicle electronics, some models may require initialization or parameter checks after replacement — perform according to factory procedure.

Why This Part Fails Most Often

Common causes of failure include worn or pitted electrical contacts inside the switch assembly, ingress of dirt or moisture leading to corrosion, mechanical wear of internal switch mechanisms from frequent use, and damaged wiring or connector problems (pin corrosion or broken wires). In some cases, actuator motors present in the seat cause symptoms that mimic a faulty control module — diagnosing connectors and motor currents helps isolate the fault.

Notes For Professionals And Enthusiasts

This part is typically sought by technicians and independent enthusiasts by part number (e.g., 8914AK, 6554J3). When replacing, verify that the seat equipment level (height adjustment, lumbar, memory) matches the replacement module’s functions to ensure full compatibility.

Product Overview

High-quality leather seatback cover designed for the passenger side of Citroën C5 (2001–2007). This used cover is in preserved condition and retains the original grain, stitching and color tone (FZK – Tempete). Ideal for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who want to restore the interior appearance or replace a damaged upholstery panel without buying a complete seat. Often searched by part numbers such as 8870JN, P5101665ZK or 30S3700025488.

Compatibility

Fits Citroën C5 passenger seatback manufactured between 2001 and 2007. Intended for original leather trim in color code FZK (Tempete). Verify visual match with existing upholstery and attachment points before installation.

Function And Typical Wear

The seatback cover protects the foam core and structural elements of the seat while providing the finished interior surface and comfort. Common signs of wear include surface abrasion, creasing, seam fraying, color fading from sun exposure and localized tears from sharp objects or frequent entry/exit. Leather can also stiffen or crack over time if exposed to harsh cleaners or left unconditioned.

Installation Recommendations

Recommended Tools: trim tools, Torx/Screwdriver set, upholstery clips, needle and thread or hog ring pliers if re-clamping is required.

• Remove Headrest: Start by removing the headrest and any trim panels that conceal fasteners.
• Detach Seatback From Car If Needed: For easier access you may need to tip or unbolt the seatback following manufacturer instructions.
• Release Fasteners: Unclip or unscrew retainers securing the old cover. Work methodically to avoid damaging foam or plastic clips.
• Slide Off Old Cover: Carefully pull the old cover off, noting routing of straps and positions of attachment points.
• Fit New Cover: Align the new leather cover, feed it over the foam and secure all clips, straps and fasteners. Ensure seams and panels align precisely for a factory appearance.
• Final Check: Reinstall trim and headrest. Confirm that all fasteners are secure and seatback operates normally.

Safety Note: If the seat contains integrated side airbags or wiring, do not tamper with airbag components. Disconnect the battery and follow safe procedures when working near airbag modules to avoid accidental deployment.

For the best finish and long-term durability, professional upholstery tools and experience are recommended, especially when reattaching edges and seams.

Reason For Most Common Failures

Failure Mostly Results From Normal Wear And Tear: Frequent use leads to abrasion and creasing at high-contact zones. Sunlight and heat accelerate leather deterioration and color fading. Improper cleaning agents can dry out and crack leather. Mechanical damage such as burns, cuts or overloaded seams is common in vehicles used intensively or exposed to pets and heavy objects.
