Chevrolet's S-10 pickup was sold with manual seats. There was no automatic function, nor heated seats and seatbacks. Seats were either individual bucket seats or configured as a 60/40 bench. In both cases, the seat backs had reclining functionality. Some variants included a manual lumbar support. The extended cab models also featured an easy entry seat for accessing the rear, and a small jump seat in the rear. Problems with getting the seats to work can be fixed by following some simple steps.
Sit in the front seat and pull up on the lever under the seat to unlock it and then slide the seat backwards and forwards. Use leverage from your feet on the floor to push the seat backwards, and lift yourself up a little to move the seat forwards if the seat is sticky. Look for items obstructing the movement if you continue to have problems.
Lift the lever on the outer side of the bucket seats or bench to adjust the front seatback. If the seatback won't go back, look for obstructions and remove them. Let go of the lever to lock it in the position you want once you've got it working.
Lock the easy entry seat if it continues to move. After you've used it, push rearwards to be sure it's locked.
Pull the handle of the bottom of the jump seat until the seat is in place, then move the seatback to the vertical position if the jump seat won't work.
