Abstract: A remote release actuating system 10 for a seat assembly 12 in a vehicle. Conventionally, the system includes a seatback 14 that is removable through an arcuate range. The seatback 14 is moveable between a design position (tilted upward and rearwardly in which it may support a passenger), and a full fold flat position. Seatback latches 24 secure the seatback 14 in the effective position. A seat cushion 32 supports the seatback 14. The seat cushion 32 has a rearward portion that cooperates with the seatback 14. The rearward portion also releasably engages floor latches 26. The seat cushion 32 has a forward portion that is pivotally attached to the vehicle floor. The seat cushion 32 and seatback 14 tumble forwardly when (a) the seat cushion 32 is disengaged from the floor latches 26; (b) the seatback 14 lies in the full forward flat position; and (c) the floor latches 26 are disengaged.

Abstract: A motor vehicle seat electrical connection system. The system comprises a first connector, a second connector, and a circuit. The circuit is normally in a first condition. When the first and second connectors are properly latched, the circuit is changed to a second condition.
