Default Seat motor problem 1996-7 XJ6L

So yesterday the seat motor on the drivers side just decided to stop working for no good reason.

The long main switch works. It clicks in each direction. (you can hear the relay's clicking in all 4 directions) The only one that works, however is back up/down.
front uptown and sliding forwarded backward do not work.

It's weird that both motors would fail at the same moment so I suspect and electrical anomaly.

The memories still work on our seat (amazing actually).

I'm not really in the mood to change the motors and I haven't heard of the motors going bad....

I got under the seat and checked the wire connections and they all seem ok.
