Refer to General Information for information on how to read the plate or the label.

The Eldorado seats have inertia seat back locks. This feature allows the seat back to move freely without requiring the occupant to release a lock lever for access to the rear seat area. The seat back inertia locking system locks the front setbacks in an upright position under the following conditions:

A seat back lock release lever allows the manual release of the inertia lock when the front of the vehicle is declined 20 degrees or more. The release lever is on the lower, outboard corner of the seat back.

The seat covers are bonded to the cushions with a special hot melt glue. The hook and loop attachment is no longer used for securing the front seat cover to the cushion. Use special glue and processes in servicing the front seats. Use the Bostik glue gun (TG-4) or the equivalent with a minimum melting temperature of 138°C (280°F). Use Bostik 13-mm (1/2-in) glue sticks, GM P/N 12377914 or the equivalent.

The seat assembly is secured to the floor pan by bolts installed in the rear. The 8-way seat adjusters are powered by three 12-volts reversible, permanent magnet motors with built-in circuit breakers. The motors are energized by a control switch installed on the front door armrests. The 3 motors respectively direct drive the front and the rear vertical gearnuts. When the adjusters reach the limit of travel, the torque is absorbed through the rubber mounted grommets located between the motor and the support. An overload relay is in the circuit should excessive stall torque be applied to the motor. For seat adjuster mechanical diagnosis, refer to Power Seats -Mechanical Diagnosis of Adjuster . The power-operated reclining seat backs are equipped with a small permanent magnet (PM) type motor under the seat cushion frame. The motor drives dual reclining actuators on each side of the seat cushion frame by means of the drive cables.
