Welcome! Can you post a photo of the seat in the forward position, and the button you are referring to? There is also a C207 specific forum on this site where you may receive faster replies.

Have you read page 110 of the owner’s manual? Try using the chrome lever on the upper part of the seat back.

Yup being through nothing there help with my issue Problem started when daughter tried getting into back seat used switch instead of seat lever . Now seat switch wouldn’t move forward or backwards just up and down. passenger seat moves forward and back tried checking fuse box but no fuses are blown my thinking it maybe seat switch . Just hoping it may just need resetting

Still no joy I have contact MB uk they suggest I recover vehicle to them to look at . This might be dumb question the seat switch run on one fuse ? in there different fuses for each switch ? And where is the driver seat switch fuse located on a c207 coupe Amg sports 2013 does any one know ? Or does anyone have a fuse chart for this vehicle.

Do you have memory seats? From the photo it doesn't look like it.
For memory seats:
- Check the interior fuse box in left of cockpit, fuses 116 and 126. 30 amp fuses. Circuit 116 is red/yellow and 126 is red/green.
For non-memory seats:
- Check the trunk fuse box, fuse f44, 30 amps, black/violet and fuse f45, 30 amps, black/yellow.
