Purchased a set of brand new 2011 seats. I say new because the guy i purchased them from took them out of the car after purchasing and they have been stowed since. I am installing them in another build i have and and want to know what wires i need to use to power them up. Rite now the seat harness that would normally plug into the vehicles harness has a large solid red, solid black and a red/white wire plus six other small wires. I hooked up a ground and a hot off a battery with a 10amp fuse to be safe and was hoping that with the red and black hooked up the seat would work, i had not luck, i was told to take an additional hot wire and touch other wires and see what happens. When the second hot was touched to the red/white the seat worked. I then fabricated mounting hardware to fit in new truck build and seats will not work now. Fyi when welding had all harnesses unhooked for all the motors and modules. Even the passenger seat that i never touched will not work. I was able to find the trouble shooting guide that the infiniti techs use and it does not show what wires are what so i can pick up off them and get seats operational. Any suggestions ? Thanks

 

Either you looked at the wrong "guide" or you overlooked what you need, however, I just checked the 2011 factory manual and it shows the wiring schematic and breakdown to the letter.

For this project you will need to download sections:
SE- (Seat), and section
ADP- (Automatic Drive Positioner),
though I would strongly suggest you download the whole manual.

For the record, I only checked for the 2011 Coupe and I am including two screenshots for reference:



Welcome to the site!

 

The drawings do not show the harness with colors and what each color does, i ended up getting them to work. I put large red and red with white stripe to 12v i then put large black and three slammer blacks to ground and seats work great. Thanks for the drawings anyways

 

The factory manual does show you every wire, every color, for every component of the car. I just showed the above two (2) diagrams for reference. I wasn't about to post all 213 pages The information is there:


B205 Connector, pins 33 (RED wire) and 40 (RED/WHITE wire).

Either way, you figured it out. Glad you got it all sorted. Thanks for the update!
