My driver side power seat has stopped working. My windows and door locks all still work. I'm thinking the seat motor is toast. Any suggestions or advive would be greatly appreciated.

Obviously start by checking the fuses. But then you are going to need to unbolt the seat and get under there with a test light and check out whether the signals from the switches are getting to the motors properly. Start with the power supply and work your way through the system until you find the problem.
 






Both seats operate off the same fuse, so if passenger seat works the fuse is OK. There arre multiple motors - are they all out or is it just the front-to-back one?? Good luck.
 






Having same problem where are the fuses located?

The seat power goes thru Fuse #5 (30A) in the power distribution box in the engine compartment.
