My seats are fused by a resettable fuse/relay in the electrical bay. Test for power at the seat, I think I have a single fuse for both seats but I am going by memory. The relay's are clearly marked in the bay. If you have power it might be the controls, I had to replace my controls for both seats. It is simple to test, use heavy 12/2 gauge wire jumper remembering this is a polarized connection.
+12V and GND goes one direction, reversing goes the other direction. When the chair reaches a limit the motor tilts up breaking the connection.
It's easy to troubleshoot, but my experience is it is easiest if the chair is removed (4 bolts)
