02 C230 6MT Passenger side power seat not working

Folks,

Initially the front pass side seat was completely dead, checked and replaced fuses. The front/back sliding works now, but when I press the tilt and head rest buttons I hear some clicking noise's coming from the bottom of the seat but the tilt/head rest woun't move ......What could be the casue of this malfunction.....
I know for sure some one out there has come across simiala issue and has resolved it.

Tried searching but could not find a definatle or solid answer...

any help is much appreciated....

maybe its the control module... or the a relay switch. if you can here the clicking from underneath the seat it sound like an electrical issue. I'd unbolt the seat and try and tilt it back or lift it up and press the buttons to see where the clicking is coming from.
