HELP Driver's side power seat inoperable
Need some help quickly. Interior is out due to lots of water under the carpet - both sunroof drains were pulled out of their holes for who knows how long.
When taking the seats out, I moved the driver's seat back and forth to get at the nuts, and when I came back to actually take it out of the car - nothing. No up/down/back/forth/recline, nothing. I checked fuse 26 and 32, which the fuse block says are for the power driver's seat, and they are OK. Any ideas? Passenger seat moves just fine. I need to get this taken care of soon. The car will be dried out tomorrow, and I'll put things back together, but the seat is all the way forward! |

Typically when the seat stops working it is the module. But given your condition it could also be something else. Does the power adjustable steering column work?

Just tried it - hooked the battery back up - steering column does not adjust.

That sounds like the seat module (its the switch board for the drive side seat).

It's the module with the controls for the driver side seat. You remove the trim along the side of the seat to get it out.

OK, thx.
Will try it again tomorrow when the interior goes back together. The battery is fairly new, but I had run it down with the lights on just prior to this happening. I then disconnected it. It could be a decent charge will clear things up. |

Good news, after starting the vehicle and charging it up for a few minutes the power seat and steering wheel adjustments now work fine.
I do have a pesky air bag light. It might be something I jostled when re-positioning the sunroof drain tubes, or perhaps something under one of the seats. Will need to see if it goes out on its own. |
