THANK YOU!!! Been dreading this issue for months but with your video I figured out it's a $13 fix!
Excellent!
Thank you! Our couch hasn’t been working right for over a month and I was able to fix it on my own following your video.
Haven’t tried yet but just by the comments I look forward to doing this tonight. Awesome video ! These are the type of fixes I was looking for !
Many thanks to the author. With the help of your video, I managed to fix the couch myself. The issue was precisely about the damaged wires.
Thankyou so much for this video. I replaced the cable and now it works. £8 job well done
Thanks for this video. Follow your troubleshooting info I was quickly able to determine that I had a bad switch. Replacement $17 from Amazon, on its way now. Plus the replacement has a USB outlet, perfect for charging my devices. Thank you!
Good job! 👍🏼
2:45 in the video and I found the fault in wiring.
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks to these repair instructions we avoided a 175.00 service call. In 5 minutes the recliner is fully operational👍
Awesome!
Same here. Thank u for sharing
Thank you! We will try this on my husband's day off.
Thanks for your advice! My recliner is working again and I didn't have to replace any parts. :)
Great advice and video. Was able to fix my sofa. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video. Allowed me to close a recliner that was stuck in the open position (by swapping wire connections) and now I can order the replacement part at my convenience.
Very good advice. Was able to fix my sofa
Thank you so much! This is so helpful!
You're so welcome!
Thank you for this information. I just fixed my couch today 22nd of December 2021. You saved me some $
Thank you so much this was so helpful!!!
Glad to hear that!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you 1 million times it worked!!! OMG I was freaking out
Finally a realistic fix 😅
So awesome my husband did the elimination and ordered the part from Walmart and fixed it himself. The part was a total of $32.46 that included shipping.
Great video... Very helpful 👍
Thanks!
How do I get the motor off to check it? I checked all the wires and power and the motor is making a clicking sound
Thank you
I have a 3 seater recliner just like this video. I don’t know what type of screws to use in order to connect them together. I just found the long metal piece that holds the couch together.
Hi there, thank you kindly. It helped me to figure out that the folding button is not working. Would changing the switch will sort it out? Ive swapped the buttons and the same thing happened on the other side. I can unfold it but cant fold it back up. Thank you again xxx
Yes, it should.
I have a similar love seat with the recliners on the ends. It has the option of charging my phone. The charger no longer works. How do you replace the power/charger switch? Thanks!
Hi I have just came across your video but my sofa led is lighted up green when is power on so I suppose my issue is not the same as mention in the video. I tried pressing the button but the recliner doesn’t comes up although the led button turns yellow. May I know if my problem still lies on the wiring? 😔 Hope you could help me on this. Thanks
Where can uou get motor for recliner love seat. WAS HIT BY LIGHTNING
Hi My reclining sofa on the left side got snagged on the wires, when lifting it up and now is stuck with the feet lifted up, theres 4 wires bunched together, black, white, green and yellow could you tell me which ones go to what thanks
I have a recliner that I bought used. The sofa has three motors, one for each section and none work. The wiring is intact with no sign of degradation. I'm wondering if its likely that three motors are bad?
THANKS SO MUCH,YOUR INSTRUCTIONS SAVED US over 1500$(paid 10yrs ago) on from having to buy another loveseat! Excellent DIY that even a physician who knows nothing about electric recliners was able to fix with your precise instructions.

Great video unfortunately my recliner switch cords are not long enough to reach the opposite side for troubleshooting.
Yeah, I was very lucky with mine, it worked out pretty well.
I have a mechanical one like this. The back rest of the middle section has gone down and won't stay up. Help please.
Where do you find replacement wires? And what would they be called. Unfortunately, but luckily...my dog has 9 lives! Somehow, and amazingly, she was asleep under the chair (or must have been) and we all went to bed. She, at some point woke up and chewed my cables under the chair. Thankfully, we did not have kill her putting the chair in the closed position, nor did she kill herself chewing the wires! But I have no idea what to call the replacement wiring I need or where to shop to for it. Suggestions would be awesome!
Not sure if you can buy just the wires alone. You may need to get one of these repair kits: ebay.us/3q9qjL
I have an L shape recliner the side that looks is cut is from the right side that has the console but my problem is turning it over to check the adapters and replace
😬Yeah! There might be a way to separate it. But still may require lifting it...

My recliner pops open when i sit down. Why’s that? How can i fix it?
Hi - my recliner went bang and red flash while recliner being opened now no power. Fuse changed and still nothing. Help
I found the problem myself. I unplugged the settee. The fault happened when the recliner was being fully extended. I traced the power cable wire under the side that was being reclined. Found that the wire had gotten trapped in the mechanism. I cut the wire and temporarily attached it back together with electrical tape and replaced the plug fused. Working fine and dandy. Been out today and bought a new fuse and joining box all safely sorted.
My sofa the hinge has come undone and catches
Sorry I found it 😅
Non useful
Neither side of my couch reclines anymore stopped working at the same time. I’m just gonna trash it and buy regular reclining couch.
No
It happened to me and i made it manually
Remove 2 bolts , added 1 - 7”
Spring instead of 2 and working on the lever/handle tho
