Please help with seat wiring harness!

I took my seat out to fix the heating element. I connected most of the harnesses back under the seat, but the harness that goes to the seat adjustment on the side is giving me trouble. There is one that obviously goes in one end, but there are 2 that can go in the other end. One goes into the seat adjust module, and the other goes to the motor (not sure what it is) on this same side. Either plug can go into either of the 2. I have a helms manual and it is of no help. Please let me know if there are pics or something. One is blue and the other is gray.

Look at #15. On the bottom right, there is one plug then a long wire going to 2 plugs on the very end. I don't know which one of these last 2 plugs goes in which harness plug. One is gray and one is blue. http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...RD+%288+WAY%29

I need to fix my driver side heating also... was it hard to accomplish your repairs?

Would it save time and hassle by taking it to a dealer (out of warranty)?

I would say do it yourself if you have the tools and you are decent with working on cars. The easy part is unbolting 4 bolts for the seat, unplugging 2 harnesses, and pulling it out. Some say it is super heavy, but I pulled it out by myself without any major probleml. just make sure that the level is raised slightly, and that it is not reclined very much at all. The pain was unplugging all of the harnesses (about 12) from the seat and pulling off the hog rings for the leather. Just make sure that you mark some of the harnesses as to where they connect. Surprisingly, some of the plugs can go into multiple harnesses, which is why I have to take my seat back out (it doesnt recline or move any more). I will be more than happy to give you a more detailed step by step if you want.

Yea, I based my project on that thread. It is very helpful, but I wish it had a little more detail.

Ok, I finally got it all working. Lesson learned from not marking all of the wire harnesses. Had to reset my srs, too, because I forgot to plug in my seat before I plugged in the battery to test it.
