Electric Seats aren’t moving
I had looked at the heated seat issue and I’m not sure if it applies to my current issue.
My wife pointed out recently that the electric seat controls weren’t working. I tested and neither seat moves using the switches, regardless of whether the doors are open or closed. I checked the heaters and both lights come on (back & seat), but, I didn’t leave them on long enough to confirm how much heat was coming out (it’s East Tennessee in the summer, hot & moist). I checked the fuses under the hood and didn’t find any that mentioned the seats to be blown. Before I do anything I just want to be sure that this sounds related to a bad solder on a relay. If so, then I think that I have the equipment to fix it, I just need a better idea where the relay is and if there is anything that I need to know before pulling the dash apart. Thanks a bunch!

If neither seat moves, it's almost positively the relay.
Go look at the "sticky key" PDF in the STicky Key thread. Follow the procedure up to the point you drop the lower dash down, it is located just to the left of the steering column, right next to the steering column, kind of above the brake pedal.

I just wanted to let you know that I replaced the relay, based on the guide provided, and the seats are working again! Now, to install the replacement convertible top… 😉😎
