Drivers side power seat switch was reversed (had to push it back to move the seat forward, push it forward to move the seat back). Went out and tried to adjust the seat and nothing. Would not move at all. Also passenger seat also would not work and front/rear passenger side windows would not work. I replaced a 50 amp fuse under the hood and was able to move the seat. I started it up and tried to operate the windows and nothing. Tried to move the seat again and nothing. The 50 amp fuse under the had blown as soon as I started it.

Hello,

It sounds like you have a short int he system. A super common place is in the door jam on the drivers side front door where the wires come through. Have the door open and then replace the fuse with the key on. Then move the door to see if the fuse blows.

Please let us know what happens, we are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken

Put a new fuse in with the door open. Was able to move the seats and with the key in the on position was able to operate the windows. Closed the door and everything still operated, so I started it and everything still operates. Must have bought a bad fuse the first time.
