Default Head rest motor not working - 2001 XKR

I have a 2001 XKR. The driver side head rest doesn't adjust. I read the post regarding the headrest cable sheath problem. My problem however is that the motor doesn't activate at all. The other seat motors are working fine, so I think it can't be a fuse.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Steve

Default any update?

Steve,
Saw your post as I was cruising through old posts. My motor does not work either. Did you get any clues on how to get it cooking again? Any insight for me, or is yours still busted?

There is a headrest control module in the seat back fed off the seat control switch pack.

I had to repair one of my seat switches. That was not difficult. Things are not officially broken until I take it apart and cannot get it to work.

"Things are not officially broken until I take it apart and cannot get it to work."

............or put it back together and find a few extra parts after the job is done!
