Hey guys,
I was wondering if any of you have experienced something like this. The steering adjustment stopped working and so did the seats. A couple minutes later into the drive, the car started to smell smokey. Once I parked I noticed that it began smelling like plastic and I saw smoke. I could not see where the smoke was coming from exactly, however it was somewhere from behind the steering wheel. Once I got home I disconnected the battery for a couple hours then connected it to re-park the car and disconnected it again. I did not try the steering adjustment but after the battery cycle the seats worked. Could a stripped wire cause the smoke and the plastic smell? I am trying to find anything online but nothing yet except that there is some electrical unit that controls the steering adjustment and the seats, is it possible that the unit burned?
