A check for this would be trying to move the seat in each direction noting which position does not seem to work or if the seat moves back after putting it into another position.

Any thoughts if the air bladder/lumbar controls could be why? No function from the switches on the drivers side for the air bladder, seat movements all work fine. Expect 28 year the bladder motor may be bad? Passenger side works fine.

Finally got around to pulling the seat, since I am the only driver once I set the seat didn't care if the fuse was out and the seat didn't move! Recovering the top half of the seat and all new foam; the bolster had a hole picked up a very clean used replacement.

Seat module part below and I cannot find this one anywhere. Anyone have thoughts on where to look? Greatly appreciate all the help I have received so far spot on from this group.
