Help wiring seats please
Discussion
My VU ute has only 2 wires for electric seats (red & black).
I have bought 2007 VXR seats. New pasenger's seat works (only 2 wires)
Drivers seat main plug has the red & black plus three more wires, black and white,pink and white, brown and orange. It's these 3 wires i'm confused.com
Any help please?

I'll paste below what I've read online so far, it came from JustCommodores:
The basic wiring feeds are simply power, earth and the warning light/chime for the seat belt. As utes apparently don't have a power adjustable driver's seat, you will need to install the power wires from the existing termination point (that is, the point within your car where the wiring stops at present) to the seat, along the driver's sill panel).
In relation to fitting a Monaro seat, I imagine it has all the memory seat wiring loom and module attached. I am in the process at present of trying to install leather Calais trim to my Berlina and the wiring under the drivers seat is a nightmare. I have simply pulled it all out and made up a simpler loom to provide for the power adjustments to be made via the two larger buttons and ignoring the small memory setting buttons. The passenger seat was fine, as it didn't have all the memolry wiring, but at present, the driver's seat is no-go, I suspect because of a faulty switch.
I don't think the VT had memory seats, so the memory module won't work anyway. From an examination of the wiring diagrams, the module connects to the BCM and Calais had a specific Level 3 BCM. That means to fit a VY Monaro seat to a VT would require major rewiring if you wanted the memory functions to operate, but only a basic power feed as described above to enable the driver to adjust the seat manually using the power buttons. Provided you just want to fit the seats striaght in, without worrying about matching the upholstery to the VT, the actual job of swapping seats is straightforward.
I'll keep looking but the BCM thing might prevent the memory option? I'm assuming the one plug will be the pressure sensor in the seat for the seatbelt chime, hadn't considered the airbag option. Do the utes even have them?

Large is main power, yellow one is seat belts and the other is air bag I might take out the pasenger seat and copy the wires in that one.
My seat only had power for up/down.
I'll see what you find
Thank for help
I'll read what you posted properly now
Ive added a pdf of all the powerseat connector pinouts from the GTO manual to my shared folder if thats any help.
