powered driver seat in 95 Jimmy SLE not working

Well, a while ago the driver seat stopped working on my girls Jimmy. It was in the position for her when it stopped so it wasn't a big deal. But now it's going to become a problem because she doesn't like to drive when we are towing something so that means I have to drive. Now to give you an idea of how bad this is, she is about 4' 10" (she's asain and her father is just as short) and I'm 6'. If I try to get in the driver seat my knees are touching the dash. I can't drive like that when we go camping so we need to get this fixed before we go in a few weeks.

She called the dealer and a few salvage yards for prices on seat motors and she was told her year/style Jimmy had one seat motor where as others have 3. So I went to verify that and unbolted the seat to find 3 motors under her seat.

Is the driver seat not working a common problem? What are some things I should check and how? I don't want to go replacing the motors if it ends up to be a problem with the switch or wiring.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
