Thanks for your reply Jacobandnickolas
The car seats are protected by a circuit breaker, not a fuse. After not finding one at Checker and Autozone, I ordered one from Chevrolet. I was surprised at the price and that they had to back order it. When it came in I found out it was a breaker.
It did not fix the problem. I found I must have pushed the seat to far forward (?). While fooling around with it trying to make sure the connections were tight; I found the seat trying to move forward past it's stop (?). It would keep cycling- forward then bump forward then bump, eventually setting the breaker.
I takes the breaker about two hours to cool down and reset. I eventually set the seat back from the extreme position(s?) And it has worked fine ever since.
I dont know if I fixed the problem but if it aint broke, I'm not fixing it.
Thanks.

I'm glad you got it working. And I couldn't agree more. If it isn't broken, don't fix it. (LOL)

You take care and let us know if you have questions in the future.
