If battery voltage is present, the ground and voltage circuits to the power seat switch are OK. Check the power seat switch for proper operation (Refer to ELECTRICAL/POWER SEATS/DRIVER SEAT SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the seat switch checks out OK, remove the seat assembly and check the circuits from the power seat switch to the power seat track adjuster motors for proper continuity.
