seat wing thingies

The adjustable seat wings ( forgot what they are called) do not move in and out at all. Anyone have any ideas?? All the other things such as Lumbar work fine.

Not sure which side supports you are speaking of but neither hip nor backrest side supports in my seats move. I don't think that was an option.

The sides go in and out to grip your body better on the upper end seats. From the middle down on the backrest.

I think those are sport seats, and they're called bolsters. Must be a motor problem since you've got electrical to other seat functions. Don't have sport seats, so can't help much.

Yes I think they are called sport seats, they are the ones with the oppening before the headrest. And you are right they are called the bolsters.....I could not remember the name, thanks for reminding me!

The sports seats have 3 adjustments and they're controlled by bladders. If only one has failed its likely the bladder has a problem. Maybe a connection or a leak

You can strip the seat down to take a look. Great instructions here:
