  Q: How to service and repair the rear seat cushion of the second-row bench seat on Mercury Monterey?

  A:

  The service and repair process of the second-row bench seat rear seat cushion starts with original bench seat removal. Service the rear seat cushion based on the provided illustration and table which shows the sequence of part disassembly. You must use care while prying the side shield to reach and remove the recliner handle clip. Reach and remove the pivot handle clip by accessing it from the bottom of the side shield. The first step for backrest-to-cushion bolt servicing includes right-hand cable end release before detaching it from the anchor retainer and then completing the left-hand cable end release and its anchor retainer removal. When working with the seat cushion trim cover disassembly remove first the J-clips then proceed to separate carefully the upholstery sheets from the hook and loop strip to protect the foam pad. Before removing the cushion trim cover you must dispose of the hog rings along with it. The final stage of this process requires conducting reassembly in the opposite order used for disassembly.

  Q: What precautions should be taken when servicing the front driver side seat cushion on Mercury Monterey?

  A:

  During front driver seat cushion service require safety glasses for deployment protection then perform hand washing after air bag work because sodium hydroxide residue may be present. Always disable the supplemental restraint system (SRS) during the commencement of work. Knock off the driver seat followed by removing the seat control knob and recliner handle cover until you reach the LH side shield screws and disconnect the seat control switch (if present). The procedure requires removal of RH side shield screws before disconnecting the seat side air bag electrical connector for which you should document the path for reinstallation. Before maintenance detach the backrest thermo-electric device connector along with the climate-controlled seat duct. The process requires disconnecting the three memory seat motor position sensor connectors. Cold seat heater mats should have their two connectors detached. You must detach the pretensioner safety belt buckle connectors before extracting the pretensioner unit by tightening its bolt to 40 Nm (30 lb-ft) when reinstalling. The backrest-to-seat track bolts require removal for manual seats with three pieces and power seats with four pieces before the seat backrest can be detached by tightening bolts to 58 Nm (43 lb-ft) during reassembly. The separation process requires disconnecting electrical connectors and pin-type retainers to split the seat cushion frame from the seat track and riser before you can remove the four seat track-to-seat cushion frame bolts and the seat cushion whose bolts need tightening to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) torque settings. First remove the J-clips before you disconnect the seat cushion hog rings and pull off the seat cushion trim cover and the foam pad. The heater seat process requires users to uninstall the heated seat module together with any required cushion heater mat. The removal process of ten climate-controlled seating includes unfastening the TED bezel screw before separating the TED and climate-controlled seat duct and disconnecting the seat fan motor and climate-controlled seat module connectors. When replacing memory seats users must break the connection to the driver seat module connectors. Return the disassembly steps in reverse order to install the driver seat while conducting the power-up procedure for the SRS.
