Power seat issues! So i picked up this 98 ws6 and im still diagnosing a few issues. The power drivers seat will not move. Lumbar and bolsters will not inflate, nor will the passenger side ones. Defrost still works, and I even swapped around the circuit breakers to see if that was the issue. Is there a single power wire that could have came loose thats going into the harness? Or does anyone have a diagram for the seat harness?
Since nothing is working at all for the seats, look at the common items. Most likely problem is the ground at G305 (driver's side kick panel).
Note that the diagram has an error. The driver's seat adjuster switch is incorrectly labelled as passenger.

does ur lumbar pump work when u hit the switch??? mine did but didnt inflate. i looked where the rubber hoses are and the clip came undone. connected the air line clip and it worked. if ur not getting any power try finding the power wires and hooking a battery up directly to see if the motor works. if it does then its ur switch or wiring. if it doesnt work then the motor is out

Well the more i looked at that diagram the more i realized that there was a power and ground going into the main plug. Hunted it down under the seat and low and behold, there was the orange power wire not even in the plug. Somehow it had corroded and came out. A quick fix, and I now have two perfectly functioning seats! Thanks eseibel!
Pea Jay I have the same issue as you, just confirmed it. However, my issue is I cannot get the seat off - the bolt closest to the driver's door in the rear is not accessible because my seat is all the way back...so I have no way to pull up the seat and fix it...
EDIT: Nevermind...was able to jam the wire in there and got the seat to move. Got it fixed up.
