Went to change the seat modules around because passenger seat wasn't working. Apparently my wiring harness is now bad because looks like wires are corroded and one has broken off inside the plug. Seat is all the way back and cannot access the back two bolts to remove it. I think I can tilt the seat back without damaging anything enough to replace the harness but does anyone have a clue where the seat harness plugs in under the carpet? I don't want to cut wrong direction. Thanks!

Coastal, this link included it the Sticky's will help in trying to interpret what I will try to describe. If you look at the motors under the seat closely you will see either allen head screws or torx heads (can't remember) which you can turn and move the seat. You will have to determine which motor will move the seat so that you can get the clearance needed to unbolt the seat. Moving the seat this way is a slow process but a few minutes on the right motor will get you there.

 

I found the motors that work the seat tilt. They move with Allen wrenches. The motor that I need to turn is different and has torx head sticking out but will not turn. The seats worked up until this bullshit happened so I know the motor isn't frozen. Am I looking at the right part? The two rear motors adjacent to the track?? I really need to move this seat.

 

Bump

 

I had the same problem, seat stuck over the back two bolts. I fixed it from above by unhooking the leather seat cover at the front bottom, then I could lift the foam seat part enough to access the seat motor (the one that goes across the seat from side to side). Unplug the connector to this motor and touch 12V power to the connector connections on the motor side of the connector. One polarity will move the seat forward, the reverse will move the seat back.
