Your post was the perfect fix for me too!
"I had this very problem. It turned out that there is one motor that has a cable coming off of each end, they inturn serve each side of the seat track. What happened on my seat was that the inner cable's end had rounded out on one side. The cables are round except for the last few inches where they are square. The square ends fit into the motor shaft and then to the gear on the track gear box. I think the seats were designed by NASA. The are very heavy and complicated. It seemed that the inner cable should have been longer than it was as just the last 1/8 inch was making it into the gear housing on the track. Here on the board most have repaired this by making the outer sheathing shorter to get more of the inner cable to seat into the gear housing. I didn't see any way of getting the metal end off the cable without destroying the metal end. So I left it alone, all I did was insert 1/4 inch piece of round steel in the inside of the motor shaft, the cable seems to go into the shaft way to far anyway and this made the other end too short and barely able to be inserted into the gear housing. By inserting the metal into the motor shaft it allowed the other end to travel further into the gear housing. I hope this makes sense, if not write with questions for clarification.
I also disconneted the negative battery terminal, I did not want to take any chances with the SRS system. I think there is a sensor under the seat."
