If nothing is working on one side, grab a voltmeter and check the main power feed and proper a ground connection to the seat switch. For reference, look at the drivers side (since it works!).Unless the switch has taken a lethal load of soda pop (the quickest way to kill one)it would be very unusual for it to loose all functions at once. The only other issue could be a bad seat computer if the car has memory seats. Mine did, it was,and every time the PO had a problem, they simply disconnected the item, so I'm still un-fixing my 633.
: My car has the electrical adjustment at the front of the seat bottom, but only the passenger side seat works. everything else on the driver's seat works- headrests included- but not that. I wonder if it is the switch (one of my rear window switches has also gone bad) or something inside the seat. if it is something inside the seat, is it expensive to replace- i am short and do not really need the adjustment.
