The motor that moves my Flexseel Captain's chair forward and back is failing. Have to tap it as I'm pushing button. Does anyone know where they are obtainable?Have searched without luck. Thank's

Did you try the place Doug posted on your prior thread?

Shadow,

Although you may already have exhausted this route, I found on the Flexsteel website a dealer location form that you might use to find someone in your area selling RV parts who may have what you need.

Another idea that I myself would probably pursue is to remove the chair/mechanism/motor&control and take apart the switch on the bench. Since it is 12v, this would be easy to manage testing without running into electrical hazard as you test. Maybe the switch can be 'massaged' and rejuvenated. I've sometimes even gotten lucky by finding inside a common component easily sourced through generic channels (i.e. Radio Shack, online component providers, etc.).

Hope this may help.

You might try giving the people at coachsupplydirect.com a call. Worst case you'll have to replace the power track.

Old memory, but sometimes it still works. I had a bad seat switch when we still had the Newell. Turned out it was the same as used in some Fords. Raided a you-pull-it automotive salvage yard and found a replacement. Keep in mind that the RV industry doesn't use much original stuff.

I have been searching only the seat motors and have only come-up-with the power base, which is kinda spendy.

Have not found individual motors.

I tested the controller, by switching right for left.
