    I about drove myself crazy trying to figure out why my reclining sofa stopped working.....I didn't know about the cut off button! Thank you for making this clear and simple, I have my couch back!

    Thanks for the video. Our lift chair was stuck up for a week. There are like 4 connections were wires plug into other wires, and with the chair moving up/down a lot, one of them worked loose. Now it's working again.

    Thank you! The issue I had was that both ends of my sofa were stuck in the reclining position. As it turns out, the cut- off button wasn't lit up green. I pushed the button and my sofa works again. I'm grateful you made this video! I hadn't even noticed the cut-off button until you mentioned it!

    Very helpful. We just got a power reclinder sofa from Costco and one side didn't work. I was thinking bad unit and need to have a warranty replacement made. Watching this video made me check the connections underneath, and the connector to the control switch was unplugged on the non working side. Didn't think they had another connection under the sofa, as it was not mentioned in the manufacturer's instructions that came with the furniture. This simple fix saved me a lot of hassle.

    I never dreamed there were that many things that had to be plugged in! Mine just stopped working. Hoping I can get it back working! Thank you!

    Awesome. Thanks a lot. That last thing you said in the video made my day.
    My recliner was refusing to go back to normal position after extending it fully.
    As you said, I just unplugged it for few mins and plug it back again, miracle happened. It started working normal again. Once again THANKS.

    This helped me. My expensive CostCo electric dual motor love seat stopped working on one recliner. Sure enough, underneath it next to the motor there is a small extra plug that goes into the motor that came undone. As soon as I plugged it in everything worked.

  • @elizabethabelgiovine9665

    Thank you! We had checked everything beforehand but thankfully watched your video til the end. Thank you!! Your last statement about waiting for the motor to reset itself worked.

    I rolled my eyes at first but checked anyway. My unit was a sales floor one and they sewed the transformer under the chair. This vid saved me.

  • @janegroves6778
    @janegroves6778 Před 5 lety

    Oh, good shout - just keep pressing buttons and checking connections. Chair hasn't been working for a week. It was your comment of the connections to and from the motor that did the trick

  • @mineralhillsworkshop5275
    @mineralhillsworkshop5275 Před 6 lety +2

    I had a chair that would only lift and not recline. This is how I fixed it. The controller had fallen down and some plastic broke inside that was holding a screw. So the screw was rattling around in there. And, the screw ended up getting lodged onto the circuit board. This interefered with the signals on the remote. To fix, Unplug your chair and unscrew the 4 screws on the back of your remote. Then unscrew the circuitboard from the remote and remove the screw. If you have had a rattling remote for a while and it stops working this maybe the issue.

    • @atablarasa
      @atablarasa Před 6 lety +4

      I used to work as a technician and I've driven 80 miles out into the country to find that the power cord was unplugged after the customer assured me repeatedly that it was firmly plugged in. As the video shows, power cords have two ends on occasion. I've also been called out only to find that the circuit breaker was blown. No power to the plug. So while the video is simplistic, it's not that we're all morons. Only some of us... :)

  • @tglenn3121
    @tglenn3121 Před 4 lety

    I have a chair sort of similar to this and the power works, But for some weird reason, when lowering the foot rest, the chair will start lifting up and as the foot rest gets lower, the foot rest and the chair sort of 'slams' back down. Any idea of what might be causing the chair to slam down when the foot rest is lowered?

    • @derekwheeler6565
      @derekwheeler6565  Před 4 lety +1

      Thank you for your comment! There are a lot of moving parts inside these chairs. A bent mechanism may be causing the chair to bind up somewhere, and then it slams shut once there is enough pressure on it.
      It’s just a guess. I hope this helps!
