passenger seat stopped moving

[Slimy]

On my V5, the electric passenger seat has stopped moving. I had been moving it about to figure out how to get some wood into the car, and it just stopped. I have a feeling I may have blown the fuse, but I don't know which one it is. The ones I did check in the fuse box look ok, but I know many cars 'double up' on fuses, so it might not be an obvious fuse.

None of the movement switches work, but the drivers side seat is fine.

Any suggestions? At the moment its froze in the 'down' position, so unless my passenger is VERY laid back, its going to be a bit uncomfortable!!

I don't really know anything much about electrical stuff but wouldn't it be more likely to be the motor just on that seat or perhaps the loom has become disconnected or a wire trapped to just that seat?

Loose wires in the connecting plugs is my guess. My driver seat doesn't always go back unless i touch the wires.

I've had a look in the manual on how to get to the connectors, and the first step is 'remove seat'. The problem is the first step in 'remove seat' is 'move the seat'!!

I'll have a go at getting to the connectors with the seat still in place, any pointers before I test my limited contortionist skills?

Guys, I owe you both a pint!! I managed to get my hand in behind the switch panel, a quick wiggle of the wires and everything came to life!!

Your help is much appreciated, you've saved me a right ear bashing from the other half!
