Right seat inop
My right seat wont move forward and I need to remove it to find the problem. Any ideas about how to move it forward manually?
Or remove the seat cushion so I can access the motors?
Thanks

I have never seen one go bad , but that is not saying much. Can you check the seat track for something stuck in it , like change or some other thing. Raise the seat as much as you can and give it a look.
If you can get your hand under there and feel the motor trying to move , that could tell you something also.

The motor gets a little warm but doesn't move. I'm fairly sure something jammed the track and burnt the motor. It's only 200.00 from the dealer but it's a pain to install.
