All other models use a single motor with 3 solenoids, 6 drive cables, and 2 transmission assemblies. When the control switch, is actuated, a double set of contacts first energize the solenoid, engaging drive gear to motor. The motor then is powered to move the seat. Releasing the switch disengages the drive motor from the cables.
