Hello everyone, over Christmas break I plan on pulling out my front seats to run a pile of wiring for my sound system under the carpet, but that's not the point of this thread. My question is, what are there for gears for the power drivers seat in the 2001 Lincoln Continental? I know for a fact that the gear that brings the drivers seat forward and backward is the issue here as it clicks (like a broken gear) and doesn't move the seat when I try to move the seat.

tldr, where would I order the gear that moves the drivers seat forward and backward?
 
I don't know if any of the parts are available separately but do take lots of pics -- my driver's seat won't go forward/back either. At least it's stuck all the way back where I need it to be.

I'd love to be able to fix it some time.

Mine is stuck all the way back too, which is completely necessary for me. I'm 6'6", it's going to be interesting getting the seat out without being able to move the seat forward. Do you have any experience with HID kits? My whole kit recently died on me, I think the voltage drop caused by the sound system killed them.
 
The odds of losing both ballasts (or bulbs) at once is a long shot. Of the 3 cars I've switched to HID, none have failed so I haven't had to troubleshoot.

My DDM kit came with the connector that goes to the drivers side headlight plug and then their harness does the rest. The first place I'd look is their adapter plug thingy; it didn't look totally reliable over the long term. Since the kit connects to the battery, it has its own inline fuse too -- check that.

Checked all the fuses and wiring and everything is good, DDM said it was probably the high/low box thing that died
