Power seat stopped working

[Steve and Cindy]

Suddenly the driver’s power seat won’t move in any direction. Passenger side still works. Does the one seat share a breaker with something else? Although everything else seems to be working. Main power switch is on. 2000 London Aire.

I believe the breaker is in the left forward compartment below driver's seat.

Also check the connections under the seat. Rotating the seat often puts stress on the seat wiring harness.

There was a recall on some models and years due to the wire being frayed (by Rich W comment) and the circuit breaker resetting and possible danger of fire. The recall was to replace the circuit breaker with a fuse. (Per Neal’s comment)

There is an inline fuse under the seat in the wiring mess there. Mine blew a few years ago and nothing on the seat worked.

Took a look and you were right. Wires came apart from turning the seat the wrong way. Have to remember not to turn it counterclockwise. Only clockwise and never more than 180 degrees. Thanks for the info.

Our seat issue is with the passenger side so its anti-clock only, and no more than a hundred and eighty ° or so.
