Default 2001 C5 bladder motor keeps running HELP

Need help removing circuit breaker 35, wont budge. What's the secret please. I have a friend of mine owns a 2001 C5 and is not a forum member yet. He will be soon ! In any event the battery keeps running down. I heard a slight noise and felt vibration in driver seat. Seems the bladder motor keeps running with car off. When I moved one of the switches to on position to move the seat the motor stopped running. I wedged something on the switch to stop the motor but I see we can pull circuit breaker 35 which I think is a better solution until he can get it fixed. Problem is I cant seem to remove the breaker. Its really tight. Can someone tell me how to remove it please.

I assume you're talking about the fuse. I would use some needle nose pliers, and be very careful. You also might want to post this in the tech section for better replies.

Hey never mind guys. I looked in owners manual and found #3 20 amp fuse in passenger side floor fuse box controls bladder on driver seat.
Removed it and motor not running. My friend will take it in for service and now he believes in the forum and is signing up tonight. Thanks for responding.
