Bret & Jeff,

Thanks for your super advice.

I found out that the problem with the seat is not the control unit. Behind the seat, there are two little holes at the bottom of the seat (one on the right side and the other on the left side). I accidentally reached into the left-bottom hole and noticed that a metal piece was loose. At first, I thought nothing of it...but when I pushed the metal piece down, I heard a little click noise. I then held that metal piece down and pushed on the seat buttons and it worked. I tried again, but this time with the metal piece up and none of the buttons worked.

I think that metal piece is suppose to be down and possibly held down by a spring or nut that must have came loose or fell off.

Anyways, I just wanted to thank you guys for all your help this morning. Not only did I get my seat to work, but I learned a few things about removing the control panel. I must have saved at least $400+ on buying a brand new driver's seat control module. Thanks again!
