1995 Mercedes C36 AMG
Question 95 C36 Power Seat Gremlins

I have a '95 C36 AMG. My driver's seat will motor fore and aft, and raise/lower under my knees (front of seat); but, the rear of the seat will not lift and the back of the seat will not tilt fwd or back, nor will the headrest motor. On the Pax side, the seat moves on all axis: fwd, aft, front of cushion up/down, rear of cushion up/down, back of seat tilts fwd/back and headrest motors.

I have teen daughters driving so we need to be able to raise/lower the driver's seat.

I swapped the Relay Electric Seat Adjustment OEM 002 542 22 19, in the trunk from Left to Right, but the seats behave the same. Fuses in trunk and under hood appear to have continuity.

Can someone offer next steps in diagnosis?

Thanks,
CigarXO
I swapped the white ones (L to R) and no behavior change. I know I've replaced the green one in the past, but I think that was a different job/circuit.
