Welcome to the forum! First of all, please do not type in all caps. it is considered "yelling". It is also hard to read. Additionally, please update your forum user's profile to include your location (at least country).

Now, I assume that the lever that you pull to release the seat and tilt it forward fro rear seat access is now working. Do you mean that it does not release the seat so it cannot be raised and tilted forward, or that the seat does not lock back down in place? If the lever does not release the seat, then you will need to check the Bowden cable at both the top and bottom. Remove the seat back panel to check the top where the cable attaches to the lever, and remove the plastic paneling on the side of the seat to check where it attaches to the latch. It might be easier to do all of this with the seat removed from the car.

In WIS, it will be under "Driver Seat". Unfortunately, I don't believe it's very detailed. If it were me, I'd remove the seat to make it easier to work on.
