Buy Genuine Okin Betadrive 90923 Lift Chair Motor Actuator | Replaces 78968 La-Z-Boy

Genuine Okin Betadrive 90923 lift chair motor actuator

Need a replacement motor for your electric lift chair? This genuine Okin Betadrive 90923 linear actuator has a distinctive round yellow eight-pin lead. CouchGuard confirms it as a replacement option for matching Betadrive 78968 installations in selected La-Z-Boy Platinum series lift chairs. Check the complete original motor and chair setup before ordering; the 78968 number or Platinum series name alone does not establish fit.

Critical fitment warning

Do not buy based on 78968 or Platinum series alone. Compare your original motor label, round yellow eight-pin connector and pin arrangement, stroke length, fully retracted and extended installation lengths, mounting points and electrical system. Different chairs or motor configurations may require different parts.

Fitment checklist: what to verify before ordering

1. Connector: Compare the shape and pin arrangement of your original plug with the round yellow eight-pin lead on this actuator.
2. Label: Photograph every model and reference number on your original motor. The 90923 label also shows 10.000079, but this additional reference alone does not prove compatibility.
3. Physical dimensions: Compare the stroke and fully retracted and extended hole-to-hole mounting lengths, mounting ends and pins.
4. Chair and electrical system: Confirm the chair's model, voltage, power supply and wiring. La-Z-Boy Platinum series chairs can use different motor and wiring configurations.

Unsure if it fits? Send CouchGuard clear photos of your original motor label, full actuator, connector plug and both mounting ends, plus your chair's model details if available. We can help compare them before you order.

Installation and safety guidance

• Disconnect mains power and any backup battery pack before starting work.
• Brace or support moving chair sections so they cannot drop when the original actuator is removed.
• Photograph the original orientation, mounting hardware and cable routing before disconnection.
• Route replacement wiring clear of moving metal mechanisms and pinch points.
• Do not force mounting pins or electrical connectors. Stop if the mechanism binds or behaves unexpectedly after power is restored. Ask a qualified repair technician if uncertain.

Frequently asked questions

Can Betadrive 90923 replace my Betadrive 78968? CouchGuard identifies the 90923 as a replacement option for matching 78968 installations, including selected La-Z-Boy Platinum series lift chairs. The number or chair series by itself is not a fit guarantee: verify the connector, mounting geometry, stroke, dimensions and electrical system.

Will it fit every La-Z-Boy Platinum series chair? No. Confirm the original actuator, connector and mounting measurements before ordering, as configurations can differ.

Is 10.000079 the motor model? No. 90923 is the motor model on this listing; 10.000079 is another identification number printed on its label.

Does this listing include a hand controller or wall power supply? The saved product information identifies the actuator motor and its eight-pin lead. It does not establish that a controller or power supply is included; check the pictured and listed contents with CouchGuard before ordering if you need those items.

Before You Buy a Replacement Part

Replacement parts can look similar while having different model numbers, dimensions, connectors or mounting points. Before ordering:

• Check the original part for a manufacturer label, model number or part number.
• Compare the connector type, dimensions and mounting points with the product listing.
• Check the product description and compatibility guidance carefully.
• Contact CouchGuard with clear photos if you are unsure which part you need.

Additional Checks for Electrical Parts

• Check that the green light on the power supply is on.
• Check the leads and connections for visible damage.
• Check whether the switch is faulty.
• If possible, test the actuator in another compatible recliner.

These checks may help identify the fault, avoid replacing a working part and save you hundreds of dollars.
