i would start from simple to more complex... the last resort is to replace the module but before that, i would check the wiring, to see if there are any broken, chaffed, or otherwise compromised wires... the seat is a moving object, with wires under the seat that can be pinched, cut off and what not...

the WDS shows 4 plugs under the seat, 3-, 4-, 12-, and 15-pin connectors... check them out, see what is up with them... if the need be, don't be afraid to remove the seat and flip it upside down, there are only 2 nuts and 2 bolts holding the seat, the front bolts have plastic covers...

Oh, there will be a plug under the seat that has YELLOW cover, and some other YELLOW markings - that is airbag related plug, when the plug is disconnected do NOT turn the ignition on, otherwise you will get the airbag light on the cluster...

so, check for wiring damage first...
