Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to temporarily repair the head of the front seat cable of a three-door Citroen C4. This is a serious problem because it prevents access to the rear seats; in reality, the solution is simple, and only a few tools are needed to do it, only a pair of round-nose pliers and a piece of wire.

First, we remove the cover of the seat mechanism, pull the seat cable and spray some WD-40 on it. Make sure the cable slides smoothly, then wrap the wire around the broken head of the cable.

Tighten the wire well and transfer it to the other side of the mechanism, tightening it around the small stop cylinder; cut off the excess wire, and that's it.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
