The switch for the adjustment is the middle switch on the side of the seat control panel. If that is not working (a common failure), look in the DIY sticky for the relatively easy fix.

The Rev. Sam has a YouTube video walking you thru it.

Smile Head rest fix

I watched the video and then fixed my head rest cable in less than 30 minutes. It's an easy job.
