Urgent! Seat motor stopped working

Urgent! Seat motor stopped working
03 Disco HSE. My kids were playing with the seat, lean it back all the way, then leaned on it and something broke. It will not go back up. There is no noise coming from the motor and it is not moving. It does still go forward and back just not tilt. Did I throw a fuse, blow out the motor, break loose a connection? I was selling it tomorrow and need to fix this asap. Please help. Thanks!

fixed!
It was a loose wire in the back of the chair. For all future LRF members- here are the things to troubleshoot all in one place in this order:
1. check fuse 1,5,7,8 in engine, 15,26 in the car
2. check fuses under seat
3. jiggle all wires under the seat while another person actuates the switch
4. rebuild the switch. It just pops out of center console. take it apart very carefully and photo it iff necc so you can re-assy it. clean with a q tip that has most of the cotton removed (otherwise it soaks up all the dielectric grease and you are left with none)
5. replace motor- but a used motor. it seems like they rarely go out.
Hope that helps.
