on an '05-up Liberty Equipped with a Power Driver Seat.

Got some '05 Power/Heated Leather Seats for my '05 CRD off Ebay. The Leather Seat install How-To was a great help, but since I already had a Power Driver Seat, I found an easy way to wire up the Passenger seat which requires about 3 feet of Dual strand, 12 to 18 gage wire, two (2) butt connectors and two 2 Tap splices.

First, take out Both Seats and loosen the console.

Here is the Driver's Seat 4 wire connector of a Power Driver Seat equipped vehicle:

Cut off about 3 feet of 2 conductor wire (red will be Positive and Red/Black will be negative):

Put a piece of Electrical tape on the red Wire (It will be 12 volts + hot in the next step)

Tap Splice the Pink/Blue wire to Solid color wire of the two conductor pair:

Run the new wire to the other side of the vehicle, under the carper and through the console.

New seat Pig Tail - Robbing Wires:

Now take the Pig tail off your new seat (if you got the seats out of junkyard, they usually chop the wires, not normally a good thing, but in this case, it is) (slide the red lock clip over to one side (see the picture below) and pull the connectors apart) and then take it apart:

Use a small screwdriver to...

To remove the two wires we need from the Plug (Blue/Pink, RedOrangish/ BrownBlack), use a small flat screwdriver pushed into the area just below the wire (in this picture, from the front)

Thanks for this write up, I just put 2002 power seat tracks in our 2004 and this was invaluable. Your idea to supply power to the other side worked like a charm. :happy107:
