Default Driver's seat started blowing fuses today. WTF?

I slid it all the way forward to vaccuum and it just stopped. So I check fuse and it's blown. Twice I tried to insert a new fuse and the ****** blows instantly.

Where should I start? I'm thinking about just removing the seat and checking the connetions. Seat was recently recovered and had to be removed so I'm wondering if when re-installed, a wire might be close to the mechanics of the seat and just got shorted by moving the seat all the way forward.

Any other ideas? This ******* car is driving me nuts.

One wire got caught and shorted when I moved it forward. Idiots who refinished seat didn't install it back properly.

If people would just do a job right the first time.
