Just a quickie as my V8V drivers seat won't adjust unless I have my fat backside in it and the car is moving. Funnily enough exactly not what I want!

Suspect loose wire which leads me to ask how do I get the seat out to check.

Tried the reset thing which gave no improvement

I just went through a related and perplexing episode with my 2006 V8V. My driver seat would not adjust in any direction at all, but the heater and lumbar support worked. The passenger side seat adjustment worked fine. Interestingly, the map lights would not come on either. After investigating, the dealer's technician eventually replaced a blown fuse #47 behind the CEM and everything functioned normally...that is until the boot was opened. Apparently, that simply action caused the fuse to blow again and took out the seat and map lights. He finally determined that a loose screw/mount in the small boot light was somehow causing the fault. The fix was simple. Good luck!
