Drivers seat stuck
My drivers seat will not go back and forth.... just a click. Gonna check the fuse first but is there any manual over ride to possible move my seat forward if I need to? Thanks!

I have the same problem. posted on here about it a long time ago but never got it resolved. My issue is not the fuses.
The issue started in the passenger seat. It would not move forward or back. Then one day it started working. Soon after my driver's seat started doing it. Haven't had the same luck as I did with the passenger seat.
Haven't fixed it because the car is no longer my daily driver and the position it is stuck in is at least drivable still.

If the fuses in the trunk are good, I would check the middle motor with a direct 12v to see if they are working. My guess is that they are gone...they usually develop a dead spot before they totally fail. Have some one hold the forward/back button and while it is being pressed, tap the motor with a hammer. If it is caught in a dead spot, it usually will engage.
