I have not seen this conversion, but I have seen interest in it, so I thought I'd go ahead and post it online.
I purchased an ELECTRIC third row, wiring harness, belts, buttons, and interior moldings for my 2014 Expedition that doesn't have a third row. You can read about the purchase here: https://www.expeditionforum.com/thr...tion-did-i-get-a-good-deal.45476/#post-414843.
I'm an engineer by trade, and have worked on Ford's since I was young, so a little splicing and dicing doesn't put me off. Anyway, I started the arduous process of first replacing the wiring harness (it connects up to the fuel pump, break lights, and I believe rear AC condenser unit). I can get pictures tomorrow. But I'm curious, what extra power would need to be ran to where the seats connect into the rest of the harness (the BIG WHITE plug on the driver's side)?
I connected one of the seats up after retro fitting the new harness in place and testing the break lights, and fuel pump. It, of course, didn't move. So perhaps I need to add in power from the fusebox to it?
Does anyone have a wiring diagram perhaps? I can't wait to post pictures, but I am beat from removing panels, removing wiring left from its past life as a Fire Station RV, and lifting those new seats.
Fun times ahead!
