Default Front seats

I am having problems with my switches up front... Passenger side wont go down and wont go back. If I put the drive side switch on passenger side, it will go back but not up. The seat is at the highest setting and it SUCKS.

The driver side goes back but when i put pass switch it goes forward.

My question is if there is a way to fix this or force/push it down?

You need to dis assemble the switch. Clean all of the contacts and re assemble.

There is a post called "switch repair" that shows how it's done. It's not that easy as there are 8 springs, 16 ball bearings, 8 rocker contacts, and 4 switch posts that all come off and tend to fly all over.

I have heard of people going under the seat, unscrewing the cable, and using a power drill to crank the cable in desired direction. Doesn't seem so easy, as you have to make sure you have the right cable and access is tight.
