Can any of you electrical gurus take a crack at this question please?

Below is a photo of the power seat power receptacle from the 987.1 Boxster that I just bought. The power seat is not moving, and it's stuck in the rearmost position. I need to move it forward to get to the rear bolts. I need to remove the seat to get to what is called the rear body control module that is under the seat in the same position as the immobilizer in the 986. The module got wet, and I think it's why the seat won't move to begin with, among a few different maladies.

All I can think of is to bypass the module and power the seat directly with 12v DC, and then try to move it. Does anyone have any idea which of these terminals would need to be powered - + and -, to get the seat switch to work and move the seat forward?

Barring that, maybe someone has an idea how to get to the rear bolts on the seat? I know this is a 987 question on the 986 forum, but I know there's lots of talent and experience here, hopefully someone can help or has some alternative ideas.

Posted below is a photo of the plug receptacle under the seat.

Thanks!
