17’ C43 AMG, passenger side power seat adjuster and memory DO NOT WORK

Definitely need some help here to figure out what’s going on.
My passenger side power seat adjuster and memory do not work. Just recently happened. My heated seated seats and cooler seats when pressed all the lights will turn on and stay on for a few seconds but then will turn off.
The lumbar adjuster works. Door unlock/lock works. Window down and up work on the passenger door side and work it’s just the power seats. I checked a couple of fuses and non of them are burnt out.
the driver side is completely fine.
what could it be?

Does the driver's side work at all? It could be a dodgy relay you can find in the boot with a dry or cracked solder point. Just need to pry open the cover and take a close look at all the solder points and re solder the one which is cracked.

Found my thread with a video of "How to...."

This forum is for the 1998-2000 C43 AMG with a V8. I'm afraid you're in the wrong forum.
