My driver side six way power seat stopped working all together. Found the #30 fuse in my trunk panel box had blown. Replaced fuse two days ago and seat worked for a day. This morning fuse blew again. Replaced and seat worked for literally two seconds.

There is nothing obstructing underneath the seat. Rails appear to be clean with no debris or blockage.

I understand there are a total of three motors used to operate the various directions of movement for my seat. I do have a multi-meter, so where do I start to see what is causing my issue?

Hello,

In the diagrams down below I have included for you the factory diagnostic troubleshooting guide for the power seats in your vehicle. Please go through the troubleshooting guide and then get back to us with the results. We will then have specific factory instructions on how to fix it, once we know what the problem is.

Thanks,
Alex
