Driver's seat was only operating ONE way... Forward. In monkeying with it I got the seat stuck in the forward position and could not get it to budge. Got a bright light out and leaned into the front floorboard. Switched out the connectors and put the UP / DOWN connector in the back movement motor and VOILA, the UP / DOWN switch moved it back to a good position. Switched the connectors back to normal operation and it will move forward again, but I'm NOT interested... ;-]

Now to look for a working connector for the Back Motor...

Fortunately, all of the connectors are the same on my truck. I understand that may not be the case on all trucks.

Hope this helps someone.

I believe some drivers seats have 3 motors
the 3 motors may all be the same, the fittings on the ends may be different
