The electric seat control on the door of my 300D 2.5t only works in some
positions-this is recent, although it seemed to be flakey on the forward
position when I got the car. Had stopped altogether and then I sprayed dome

Pull the knobs, pull the trim (may have to remove the top screw for

latch (push forward til it unhooks, then pry the rod out, install is
reverse, unless I have it backwards).
You can then unscrew the switch and remove.
