Power Seat Question

These are probably stupid questions, but I'll ask anyway.

Around a year ago, my power driver's seat quit working. It did NOT just go out slowly, it just quit moving forward and back. It still moves up and down, and you can hear the motor when you try to go forward and back, but it just doesn't move. Now, here are my questions:

1) Is the power seat motor like a window motor? In otherwords, does it have a little plastic piece inside that could be stripped out?

2) If that's the case, shouldn't it not be moving up and down, either?

To put it plain and simple, I need to know if anyone has a definite answer to this. If anyone does, I need to know exactly what I need to fix it, just in case my wife needs to drive the car (if something happens to her car for some reason). She can barely reach the pedals right now. She's very short. LOL If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

yes and has different motors for different functions :another thought is take the forward/rearward motor out of passenger seat and swap with driver seat not hard and cost nothing but time

Actually, it will cost me. I don't have a power passenger seat. LOL I'll start looking for one.

Any idea which motor is the forward/back motor?

without looking underneath the seat im not sure but should be easy to identify it should be the only one attached to the track the other motor or motors are for tilt and height adjustment or power lumbar

who needs seats?

seats are for pussies!
