Default ‘96 Power Seat Controls Not Switching

I’ve got the sport seats in my GS. The driver’s side has power, moves back and forth, and the bolsters adjust fine. When I flip the switch to adjust the passenger seat, the bolsters adjust on the passenger seat, but when I try to move the passenger seat back or forward, it only adjusts the driver’s side.

Any thoughts on how I can fix this or what to look for? I’d even be happy to just move the seat back manually and leave it there.

The wiring under the seats that controls all this is very complicated and confusing ( to me). I switched the connectors and all my seat problems resolved. The color codes on these connectors don't match so be very careful keeping track of what you're doing.
