Its supposed to be a 4 way like yours. Have You found yours to be dependable or have You had to do any repairs etc? I am sure You don't move Yours much if You are the only Driver. Just curious as I have no Experience at all with these.

It's dependable now, but it wasn't operable for the first 20 years I owned it. It was rebuilt when I did a mechanical restoration of the car with a mechanic. We replaced one of the motors and some of the wiring. I do get a little movement of the seat back and forth on the passenger side when stopping.

I have a 55 fairlane victoria with power windows and a four way power seat. They must be fairly rare because I had a hard time finding a replacement seat switch.

Very nice 55! The Power Seat Switches are available now ( Repro) from Macs Antique Auto.. 54-55. Interestingly they don't have them for 56 Ford.

Thanks. The only one I found at Macs looked like the window switch. The one on mine was a toggle switch. I recently found a toggle for a 58 from macs that I think I can wire up and make work. I ordered it but I am waiting for it to arrive. I found one last year on ebay off a 55 tbird but it quit working after a few months. I got it working long enough to get the seat where I wanted it.

. I think You are correct. It appears there is a mistake in their Part #. Should be B5AZ-14A701- B. Their Part # is B5AZ-14A701-A. NPD has the same Item as Macs identified as a Power Seat Switch also. There is a NOS correct Switch on Ebay. Item # 311536647070. VERY Pricey though. That's the One pictured. Supposed to be NOS with Box.

Don't wait too long if you really need it. If you've been waiting 2 years, then no other has shown up at a better price. When it's gone, it's gone. In general, things like this do not come down in price and waiting for a better price is often more expensive.
