So because you have the loom for the non-memory seat, it doesn't work at all? Or it works but the memory functions side doesn't?

I made an adaptor so the 8 pin plug for the seat works with the 2 pin plug from the floor. I found an old e-series dash loom actually had the plugs I needed (gotta love Ford reusing plugs across different parts of the car ) and while I didn't wire up the memory function, I am loving the full electrics now.

On the 8 pin plug, the power wire is red/green. Underneath it is a black wire, which is an earth. There is another earth at the other side of the plug, which is black/yellow. These are the only 3 you'll need. Connect the 2 earth wires to the earth on the 2 pin plug (black). The other pin on this plug will connect to your power wire on the 8-pin (the red/green wire). Pretty simple job!
