Seat Control Module
Sunday morning question guys.
Would anyone know if a 2011 Seat Control Module is still available from GM?
I’m thinking no but will check tomorrow.
Would rather not go the junkyard or eBay route but may not have a choice.

Eismann's Corvette found it, I think they got it from a company that scraps Corvettes. Due to the position of my seat when it stopped I was not able to get my seat out so I had to take it to them. They wanted to get it so it had a warranty incase it did not work. Prior to that I did find some on E-bay for sale.
I have my original which I believe to be in good working order as when they took the seat out I had broken power wires to the seat motor itself. Since they already purchased the module I had to buy it and they installed it and Kent said that mine is probably good. I might be willing to part with it but I do recommend you pull the seat and check for broken wires before you spend $$ on the module.

Also to point out, board is easy to pull out of the case, to check for cold solder joint/corrosion problems.
The last one, make sure to check the main connector at the carpet for corrosion problems that can be a easy fix as well.
Hence only time I have seen a seat module so far gone that repairing is not really an option, is in flood damage cars, where even the traces on the seat memory board have been corroded to the point that they are just gone/would take a spool of wire to rebuild the missing corroded off traces.

As usual, a very detailed and informative response Dano.
Thanks!
Problem started several months ago, with the airbag dash light.
Light was intermittent - coming and going.
Research told me that in all probability, it was a bad connection under the seat.
It eventually stopped and in all honesty, I didn’t go any further with.
Recently, the light cams back.
In addition to the light now intermittently coming on, the power seat and steering wheel control stopped working.
Could not control the seat at all, both manually and with the memory button.
Intermittent problem here too.
Scanner says there is a problem with the seat module.
Going to pull the seat Saturday and check all the connections.

Disconnect the harness, clean the contacts, zip tie it together when you reconnect the harness & also zip tie the harness to the underside of the seat so it doesn't get caught on the carpet when you move your seat.
