I went to get in my wife's car and used my key fob. I heard the seat move back like it always does for my position. Now it wont move at all. The heated and cooled seats for both driver and pass. are also inoperable now. I noticed the pedal position is also inoperable now. The passenger seat position still works fine. I have pulled up both seats and looked for burnt, damaged connectors and wires. I was able to use my power probe to jump the front/back motor so my wife could at least drive it. After I did that all the motors worked for a couple minutes and then stopped again. I am thinking I have a Memory seat module problem. But that is an expensive guess to get wrong. Any Ideas?

Hello, I'm Danny.

Yes, it sounds like you are having an issue with the power seat module. The are bolted directly underneath the seat base. I've attached picture steps below on how to remove and replace. I've circled the location of the module in the picture and circled in red. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
