electric/electronic?

My power seats don't work and I would like to know if anyone has a procedure to remove motors and test them. I am sure I have power to them but there is only a faint click and that is it, so I assume the motors are toast. I would like to troubleshoot and replace/ repair if possible. thanks

On our blazer, the wires run under carpet were bad due moisture/corrosion. We wired a temp feed to the switch to see if it worked.

Re: electric/electronic?

Are you talking GTA seats? Thought those seat tracks were all manual.Are you refering to the power lumbar or track(s)?

Since you said them & seats.Im assuming both seats.Could both seat tracks be faulty.
The click you may be hearing is a relay.Ive heard my relay/s click when the lumbar wasnt working properly some years ago.
