Not had the problem myself but I've stripped down the seat to fit heaters.

The electrics all feed through a single connector on the side of the seat. Might be worth pulling that and cleaning it up to see if that fixes the problem.

If not, the seat adjustments are all made by bladders fixed to the seat and fed by tubes. If all 3 have failed it must be an "upstream" problem rather than a leak in the individual bladders. You'd need to strip down the seat to see the bladders.

I'd put my money on an electrical connection issue.
