Good day!!

You beat me to it... As crystalworks indicated, swap the switches one at a time... If the problem moves, that is the switch that is bad... Don't move them both, then test... You still won't know which one is bad... The power from one goes thru the other, IIRC... The new hassle free TIS doesn't have the wiring diagram for the rear seats... I can't access the one I've been using for my MT project here at work...

Let us know what you discover... If you need a switch, I can grab one the next time I'm at the yard...

Cheers!!!
