Question:

Is there a manual safety latch to close the recliners? They are stuck open after motor went out. I just want them closed for now so I can close my slides for traveling

I wish there was a manual latch or release for the foot rest of the momentum seating. It's not an ideal solution but you could try swapping the good motor from the other side of the chair to the bad side to lower it for the time being. Most of the time it's the control box so if the motor swap does not work you can try that too.

For a replacement control box you'd want the # 195-387596.

Answer 10

I've spoken with Thomas Payne about your dual theater seating #195-000091. You need to check all the connections and if the problem is still happening, then you will need to replace the control box. Usually that will fix it.
