Default Seats won't adjust

My seats won't adjust anymore!! Can't move them forward, up or down. Checked the fuse and it's fine. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you said seatS.
If neither seat will adjust, then I would think it unlikely that the problem is in the seat motors.
I would recommend using the 2005 SRT6 repair manual for troubleshooting the electrical problem.

see sticky link Crossfire SRT6 Documentation Collection by MMZ_TimeLord for the
'
SRT6 Service Manual [79.7MB]'
section 8n-73

There is one component that if it fails will render the seat switches useless, it is the seat relay under the dash.

I had one of the two diodes fail and this allowed the seats to be adjusted only when a door was open. If the second diode fails as well the seats would have been unmovable. The second diode allows the seats to be moved with the doors closed.

Check out your relay, each diode allows the electrical current to pass through it in one direction only. split open the relay and run a current through them one at a time.
If you are so inclined and I do not mean you are standing on a hill or you have one leg shorter than the other, you can replace each diode for 10 cents each (10 for $1) or replace the relay for $15 to $25.

Look at this post for details, it is about one diode replacement but two diodes is only twice the work and twice the cost = 20 cents.
