Default SEND HELP - Broken UL Passenger Seat Switch

Aloha!

Long story short, soon to be ex-wife didn't take good care of the leather, and punctured the seat in my 2002 Ultimate Luxury.

Local upholstery shop installed some LSeats.com replacement skins, and the passenger seat INSIDE switch came apart as they removed it. It's clear some components are missing.

This one is specific just to the UL edition I believe, and I can't locate a part number in the schematics, let alone the part itself anywhere.

Anyone have a PN or one sitting on a shelf?

Thanks! -Ian

Is that the one mounted on the inside edge of the passenger seat back? If so, it was used on quite a few more than just the UL models.

If so, you will need one of the following part numbers:

84920-50260-A0 for the IVORY interior color

84920-50260-A1 for the ECRU interior color.

You will have to look up which one your car would need.

Thanks for responding YoshiMan.

When I cross reference that part number, it appears to come up as the "Front Passenger Seat Variable Switch", which looks like the below image.

You are right, this one is located above the center console - and it does come in more than just the UL version.

Still can't seem to locate it on the parts vendor sites.

Apparently - this part number is coming up with two different images listed.

DiscountPartsMonster.com reviewed my images, and description, and they feel confident that the part they have is correct - and it matches the number you listed above!

I'll update this thread if this proves correct/incorrect.

Thanks again. -Ian

If anyone runs into a similar issue in the future - it is DEFINITELY required to have that switch fully operational, otherwise the passengers side seat will NOT adjust in any way. It appears that the circuit is run in series, so when the upholstery shop installed my new seat leather - and broke that switch - they reinstalled it without the copper contacts inside.

I rebuilt it with new parts, and the issue is completely resolved. -Ian
