I about drove myself crazy trying to figure out why my reclining sofa stopped working.....I didn't know about the cut off button! Thank you for making this clear and simple, I have my couch back!
Thanks for the video. Our lift chair was stuck up for a week. There are like 4 connections were wires plug into other wires, and with the chair moving up/down a lot, one of them worked loose. Now it's working again.
Thank you! The issue I had was that both ends of my sofa were stuck in the reclining position. As it turns out, the cut- off button wasn't lit up green. I pushed the button and my sofa works again. I'm grateful you made this video! I hadn't even noticed the cut-off button until you mentioned it!
Awesome. Thanks a lot. That last thing you said in the video made my day. My recliner was refusing to go back to normal position after extending it fully. As you said, I just unplugged it for few mins and plug it back again, miracle happened. It started working normal again. Once again THANKS.
I was hoping to get a real video on how to fix my chair and ended up wasting 3 minutes watching this guy plug it in. Wow problem fixed. As if it could ever be that simple.
Jonet Craig I made one recently. Hopefully it helps, if not let me know and I might be able to help diagnose it with you. m.ua-cam.com/video/WN-C2ycMXOI/v-deo.html
This helped me. My expensive CostCo electric dual motor love seat stopped working on one recliner. Sure enough, underneath it next to the motor there is a small extra plug that goes into the motor that came undone. As soon as I plugged it in everything worked.
Very helpful. We just got a power reclinder sofa from Costco and one side didn't work. I was thinking bad unit and need to have a warranty replacement made. Watching this video made me check the connections underneath, and the connector to the control switch was unplugged on the non working side. Didn't think they had another connection under the sofa, as it was not mentioned in the manufacturer's instructions that came with the furniture. This simple fix saved me a lot of hassle.
Thank you! We had checked everything beforehand but thankfully watched your video til the end. Thank you!! Your last statement about waiting for the motor to reset itself worked.
I had a chair that would only lift and not recline. This is how I fixed it. The controller had fallen down and some plastic broke inside that was holding a screw. So the screw was rattling around in there. And, the screw ended up getting lodged onto the circuit board. This interefered with the signals on the remote. To fix, Unplug your chair and unscrew the 4 screws on the back of your remote. Then unscrew the circuitboard from the remote and remove the screw. If you have had a rattling remote for a while and it stops working this maybe the issue.
Oh, good shout - just keep pressing buttons and checking connections. Chair hasn't been working for a week. It was your comment of the connections to and from the motor that did the trick
I used to work as a technician and I've driven 80 miles out into the country to find that the power cord was unplugged after the customer assured me repeatedly that it was firmly plugged in. As the video shows, power cords have two ends on occasion. I've also been called out only to find that the circuit breaker was blown. No power to the plug. So while the video is simplistic, it's not that we're all morons. Only some of us... :)
Oh yeah that's right I forgot it's that time of year again. The chair unplug fairy came and tricked me again. I should have known better. Thanks Charlie
What does it mean when the remote flashes and nothing else happens? Nothing in the manual, nothing comes up when you google this subject. Anyone else had this problem?
I have a chair sort of similar to this and the power works, But for some weird reason, when lowering the foot rest, the chair will start lifting up and as the foot rest gets lower, the foot rest and the chair sort of 'slams' back down. Any idea of what might be causing the chair to slam down when the foot rest is lowered?
Thank you for your comment! There are a lot of moving parts inside these chairs. A bent mechanism may be causing the chair to bind up somewhere, and then it slams shut once there is enough pressure on it. It’s just a guess. I hope this helps!
good video thank you. Do you think I can make ashley recliner button on the side extended to use as hand control for someone with physical difficulties to be able to have it on lap or tv tray? I would love any help you could give-- thank you!
sometimes it is not plugged in from the factory, you get your recliner home and nothing works....if you're not electrically inclined, you need to be told these thing. Some genious's know all about everything, they think!!!
I call your attention to NEARLY EVERY OTHER COMMENT. THERE ARE CONNECTIONS THAT ARE NOT THAT OBVIOUS. I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYONE IS A MORON. THAT'S A REALLY NEGATIVE COMMENT.

I never dreamed there were that many things that had to be plugged in! Mine just stopped working. Hoping I can get it back working! Thank you!

Thanks for your very informative video! It came in handy last night when our recliner stopped mid-recline.
This helped me. My expensive CostCo electric dual motor love seat stopped working on one recliner. Sure enough, underneath it next to the motor there is a small extra plug that goes into the motor that came undone. As soon as I plugged it in everything worked.

thanks man didnt realize there were that many connections. this video actually helped
I rolled my eyes at first but checked anyway. My unit was a sales floor one and they sewed the transformer under the chair. This vid saved me.
This video worked for my problem; the small button on the power cord of my Ashley recliner. Thanks for the help.
Great video thanks. And it was so simple!!!
Thanks that was good straight forward solution. It worked for me.
Thank you for the video. It was the tiny switch on my Ashley cord. I did not know was there
That's the same problem I had. I never knew it was there either!
Thank you !! I just fixed mine with the help you gave in this video 👍👍😂😘

Helped me a lot. Thanks
thank you! I checked all connection points, or so I thought. watching your video saved me a service call. thanks again!
Oh, good shout - just keep pressing buttons and checking connections. Chair hasn't been working for a week. It was your comment of the connections to and from the motor that did the trick
Thanks I repair both my Ashley electric Recliner
Thanks it worked!!!!
Thank you for this helpful video.
Thank You! Saved me money!
Thank you, i was helped with this video.
It is one of those chairs that has a USB in the middle of the two buttons on the right side of the chair
What does it mean if you plug the power cord into the transformer and the green light goes off on the transformer?
Oh my goodness............you think we are all morons and didn't check to see if the chair is plugged in!
I used to work as a technician and I've driven 80 miles out into the country to find that the power cord was unplugged after the customer assured me repeatedly that it was firmly plugged in.

Lol watching this in 2019 lmao
Yeah my wife fell and this happened I'm so glad I checked before calling!
renovacman LOOK WHO THE MORON IS NOW!!! Bahaha!
Always check the power source first.
"make sure not to put chair on top of cord" - Then puts chair on top of cord...
Thank you!
give this man an oscar
Didn’t think to check cords because the light on my wand was on... turns out my transformer has two 9v battery backups, and the chair was unpluged
thanks! my headset works but chair doesn't...it opened now won't shut...will do these steps!
Thank you, I've fixed my chair now☺
I broke my Ashley power recliner cut off switch with green light indicator and small button lookingmfor replacement
Oh yeah that's right I forgot it's that time of year again. The chair unplug fairy came and tricked me again. I should have known better. Thanks Charlie
Bought this.

Thank you nigga i thought i broke a 2000 dollar chair
My chair will go up but only come back down to sitting position. Foot rest will not come out so chair can recline

@@derekwheeler6565 Thank you.
One word DOH!
My power chair when I hold the button down it moves an inch at a time takes forever to recline and takes forever to go back what is the problem
good video thank you. Do you think I can make ashley recliner button on the side extended to use as hand control for someone with physical difficulties to be able to have it on lap or tv tray? I would love any help you could give-- thank you!
Thanks Deb! Ashley makes lift chairs with "wands". You can probably find them in any Ashley store or we definitely have them.
Geez how did you get soo many gremlins?
What about the 10% that don't work.
REALLY!? dur dur dur dur dur dur
Español .....
It this guy for real?
.
ridiculous,really this is a waste of time.
Ridiculous to waste time on making a video to tell people to make sure their chair is plugged in.

Stay in school kids! Study hard and make something of yourself so you don't end up like this guy.
there was no reason for a comment like that, the man is trying to help people who may not realize some simple fixes.
give this man an oscar
