Default C5 lumbar issue

Hello everyone. New to the forum, but have owned Corvettes for years.
My C5 drivers side lumbar is haunted. Pushing the lumbar or bolster toggles sometimes produces no sound or motion. The next time they work. I just never know. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Welcome, ask the C5 section as they would be able to help.

Best of luck with the lumbar issues.

Welcome. The C5 section should have some advice on the seat.
