8P788568182V Volkswagen BREST REL

This relay essentially manages the power going to your seat’s movement functions – things like adjusting the position forward and back, up and down, lumbar support, even if your seat has memory settings, this relay is involved. It’s an electrical switch, really, but it's designed to handle the higher current draw needed to move the seat itself. It doesn’t move the seat, it just provides the electricity that allows the motor to do it. Think of it as a traffic controller for the power going to your seat motors. The control switches you use to move your seat send a signal, and the Brest Relay then sends the appropriate amount of power to the right motor to make your seat move the way you want it to. It's usually located under the seat itself, tucked away safely. If this relay goes bad, you’ll notice if your seat stops moving, or moves very slowly, or maybe only some of the functions work. Sometimes it'll be intermittent, like it works sometimes but not others. It can also cause the seat to move on its own unexpectedly, though that’s less common. It’s one of those things you don't think about until it fails, and then it’s a real pain. It's a relatively inexpensive part to replace, and a lot easier than trying to diagnose a complicated seat motor issue. We stock these at Fixparts Online, of course, and honestly, tackling this yourself can save you a good bit of money on labor. We’ve got your back: Brest Relay (MPN 8P788568182V) is covered for 12 months!
