I bought a 94" 3.8v6....And im assuming the interior is almopst identical through 2004, gt or base model...Anyways the only thing wrong with the car is the odometer stopped(ordered the gear to fix it already) and the driver side power sear wont go back....It goes up and down so i think the motor is good. It just doesnt go back or forward...I tampered with it,but it wont really move,the metal lworm gear(not sure thats the right name) seems to jiggle but doesnt move..I tried manualy turning it while pushing the button to make the seat backwards and nothing happens..
I no nothing abou these things.And i dont know why the pas side a manual seats and the drivers has a power...I just need it to go back. dont care if it goes forward again.lol...

The seat mechanism operates independantly. Mine works fine raising up and down but doesn't always work front to back. Try greasing the track to see if that helps but it probably needs a new motor.

well is it possible for the motor to be messed up only when going forward/backward...up and down works fine,and the motor makes noise when going trying to go forward/back....Maybe some wd-40 on the track with a hammer and chissle or something could knock it loose...

Yours is doing the same exact thing as mine. I believe it is probably the motor getting weak

Possibility. The only way to tell I would think is to remove it from the car.
