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

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.
