Re: {Chrysler 300} seat switch



hi Al , those switches   are rugged good things … I took one needlessly all apart  once (!not easy)  as seat did not work . Not easy to understand it, trust me  , parts fly out   !!
All it needs is vigorous working maybe 20-30 times it is fixed . A film forms on contact surfaces from sitting . Inside are rugged sliding contacts all spring loaded . It comes  back perfect once that  is worn  off 

It has to start motor , control direction and power the correct combination  of clutches in the drive screws     

Nothing goes wring with it 

What does go wring  is that damn white lube ( Lubriplate ) inside screw  clutches . Take that  apart   and clean out 
  I loved that stuff  when young , but now know it is  junk ,   mopar used it everywhere in 60’s , wrecks locks  , wiper motor park , window lift gears and  seat clutches  on 300’s 
It turns to a solid yellow mass almost like hard RTV .
Lube these things with GL-4 75 w synthetic gear oil after cleaning. Forever stuff  
More common GL 5 has additives harmful to brass 
hope this helps , switch is ok

The 1958 service manual has the best information; it has a diagnostic section on power seats, horns, window motors, etc. It is a very helpful section that is not repeated in other manuals. If you don't have that service manual, you can read it on line at
