Where do I start with this problem?

Fuse and/or relay, followed by wire harness connections under the seat.

Gents, and hello again TrAmTerry ! Y'All have helped me SO much since I bought my 30th Ann. ws6 Hurst a few years ago (can it be 4 years? Where does TIME go?) Hope you can help related small nit: basically I'm ok for me as 6'2" and bought car from 6'3" guy; driver power seat was all the way back when bought, but he told me motor wouldn't bring it forward. I never tried as front UP/Down motor worked and my only adjust was a slight tilt up, maybe 10-15°. (The rear up/down motor no work either.) Ok, so now I want to lend car to shorter son and in-laws (no comments Please!). Please help me diagnose: Fore /aft motor: even though all way back, can see interior lights dim when push switch aft (backwards), but lights don't dim when push switch fore (frontwards). I was intrigued, as dimming lights test was just by accident as I was in darkened garage so I noticed; then realized similar with Rear up/down adjuster: I assume it's all way down and lights dim when push one direction but not other.

What think above? a) TWO motors just stuck and need tapping with hammer to un-stick? b) bad switch/contacts in seat sending juice only aft on one switch, and only down on rear Up/down? c) is there a GOOD shop somewhere on East Coast for Gen 4 seats?

is there a good Sticky thread on how to test +/or replace the power seat 6-way switch driver side, and related ground wires? This guy did some interesting "jumping" on what I assume are the Ground wires but HOW this works (note: he's sending power IN to system with a 12v battery pack).
