Just curious when you would want to fold the 3rd rows while sitting your azz in the drivers seat?

I don't haul many people in mine, so I rarely use the 3rd row seats...


Fold buttons on the trim panels for each side of the second row would be great - so that you could raise the third row seat from the second row, as you fold the second row seat forward to allow a passenger into the third row (I have the second row bench seat feature). This would prevent opening the hatch or hatch window glass, to use the fold buttons on the right rear.

Atleast the buttons are one touch. Our armada buttons need to be held and they take 4EVER. and there's no secondary fold buttons either. GMs are the only ones that have secondary fold buttons. I'm sure those buttons will be gone soon.

This button is great when your kids don’t listen. Haha
LOL! Ya, I couldn't remember if it folded the seat down or not. I have my battery disconnected right now while running cable for my stereo project so I couldn't test it to see what it did. My third row has been folded down since i bought it so i forgot it just did the headrests.

The third-row folding seat buttons are not one-touch in my 2015 Expedition Limited.

Should work but the switches would be in parallel, in series both switches would be needed to operate seats. Just noticed this is an old thread from April of '21. Were you able to make it work?
It would not need to be in parallel, because the command could be sent to the module via the CANBus. Regardless, it doesn't have it. Honestly, might have been helpful like once? Maybe.
