Question Lumbar seat problem

The lumbar seats in my daughters 95 will inflate but will go back down as soon as the button is released. Has anyone else had this problem? You can hear the air escaping but it will be a while before I can check it out. Thanks for any help.

Could be your switch

I had this same problem on my 97 EB. The problem turned out to be the switch on the side of the seat. It should feel firm after you release it. If you touch it and it feels kinda loose, then you probably need to replace it.

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunatly its not the switch. I had them checked and both have leaks and need to be replaced. We bought it used and both sides are bad so I guess its off to the salvage yard. Thanks again
