   Hello!

My micra convertible has lockable passenger seat storage linked to 

the central locking. I can't get it open!! You can feel it clicking to try to 

open when everything else is unlocked but it won't budge! Nothing is 

jammed in it and I've done a whole load of things to get it undone. I've 

looked at the wiring under the seat and nothing appears to be 

loose/cut...rang Nissan no help really...any ideas/help much 

appreciated!

	does the seat storage have a lock ? or is just on the central locking if there a connector near the lock motor undo it and make sure its not corroded or the pins are loose can you access the back of the seat you may be able to get at the linkage to open it

	pulled some info up for ya, check the voltage to the actuator there are 3 wires Br,L and a ground check with a meter when you press lock/unlock the br or L wire should go 0-12v-0 (lock/unlock) if theres no pulse you need to check the continuity of the loom between the actuator and the body control module

	Thanks for the info...yes, it does lock (for the brave people that leave their car with the roof down and go off somewhere, stops pesky thieves cos it locks!) central locking everywhere else is fine. Im rubbish with cars and it's workings so your help is great...but...where would the connector near the lock motor be??!! it was working because there's some of my things in it...since I opened and closed it a few times I had moved the seat as far forward as it would go to get something giant home...I'm thinking ive dislodged a wire somehow, but as I posted nothing looks loose/hanging off or sliced by the runners.

	follow the cable out of the actuator and you will find the plug the plug maybe secure but one of the pins is a bit loose its worth a second look common cause is kids in the back little feet and cables dont mix

	Hi again...I 'fixed' it lol... I tucked the pull cord way down behind the seat and it had jammed itself in the central locking mechanism! Took the plastic bit off the back of the chair and released it! I only tucked the cord so far down to deter people from seeing a pull cord and thinking hmm that must be a storage area for nice things...I'll have a look! :-)
