2014 Ford Explorer just purchased with a 3rd row seat folded over and stuck, no power to the switch, no motor noise.

Hi, I just did a smoke test on my Explorer searching for a possible vacuum leak. The only place that smoke escaped was near the knob on the idle air control valve. Is this the vacuum leak or is it normal for smoke to escape from the valve when the vehicle is not running? Thank-you in advance.
