Default Can I Convert a electric recliner chair to manual recliner?

2011, has he still got it?

I would personally suspect the motor might well still be around and just
might need some adoption.

Hi all,

I have a Celebrity Electric Reclining Chair that I bought second
hand

The upholstery side of it is in very good condition, but after playing up
the rise / reclining function stopped altogether.

It has a single transformer voltage of 25V

With Leggett & Platt mechanism and an Okin single Motor.



I have had two electricians look at it and both say the motor is us and
it
would be better to buy a new chair.



Has anyone ever converted an electric one to work manually?



While no carpenter I would like to have a go.

Any thoughts welcomed,

Mick.
