Power seat back stuck will not recline at all. The power seat base moves back and forth up and down, but the seat back does not move. is this the motor a relay a fuse?

Hi vinnyacura,

Sometimes the motor gets stuck when over run. Give the motor soome knocks while operating and it might work. You might need to give the motor gears a twist to get it going.

Check for broken or disconnected wires under the seat.

Should not be the fuse as the forward/reverse motor is working.
