3lt seat problems
I was cleaning my interior out and moved the drivers seat all the way forward, now it will not move back. Can anyone help? I have tried to see if there was any loose wires, but I can't fine anything. Nothing on electric on the seat will work.
Thanks for the help.

If none of the functions work it is likely X375 is disconnected. That would be unusual since it has a connector lock built into it. When the lock is engaged it pulls the two parts of the connector together and you need two fingers squeezing both sides of the lock to unlock it and swivel the lever to the unlocked position. The lever itself will then be locked into the unlocked position and the locking tabs unlocked so you can close the connector halves together. That means pulling the seat if you can't reach under the seat from the front or side.
The above picture shows the lever locked into the open position. The other half of the connector plugs into the black portion facing you.
Are you able to get a wrench on the front seat hold down nuts? They take a 15 mm socket, box or open wrench. You will have to pull the plastic covers if you can get your hands in to pull the plastic pins.

Yeah, I'd say most likely fuse. If that's good then MAYBE the plug. Either way I don't see it being a big problem because everything went at once. If things started going bad slowly then maybe different story. Good luck

The Heated Seat Fuse and the Pwr Seat Circuit Breaker are in the I/P Electrical center which is co-located with the BCM in the passenger footwell. The power feed from the circuit breaker to the seat position motors is located in Connector X375 Pin A4. The power feed from the fuse to the Lumbar/Heated Seats is Pin A6 of the same connector.
If none of the functions work it is likely X375 is disconnected. That would be unusual since it has a connector lock built into it. When the lock is engaged it pulls the two parts of the connector together and you need two fingers squeezing both sides of the lock to unlock it and swivel the lever to the unlocked position. The lever itself will then be locked into the unlocked position and the locking tabs unlocked so you can close the connector halves together. That means pulling the seat if you can't reach under the seat from the front or side.

Thanks to everyone for your help.
I'm going to try to pull the seat tomorrow.
Like someone said it went out all at once, which is good, I think.
I will try to let you know what happened.
Thanks again.

Well, I went ahead and pulled the seat tonight.
It was the large connector ( it was unlocked). I want to thank Bill and everyone else who replied.
Bill your picture helped a lot.
Thanks again to everyone.
Now for a good nights sleep!
