Electric seats have two motors, the one under the seat controls the forward/back, one inside the backrest controls the angle. I have had the cable for the motor under the seat come loose (from the hooks on my seat cover straps), you can just pop it back into place. The one inside the seat is more troublesome. I think you are either dealing with a bad motor or switch.

A few questions:
When you push it to forward tilt does it sound normal?
Does it make any noise/sound when you push it back tilt? (Which you said is what is not working)
How is the button stuck? Does it not move, or not feel like it is triggering anything?

Hi,

Thanks for your respond

1. Forward working with no problem. Sound normal
2. No noise when pushing backward.
3. The button is stuck. Only moving forward. It will like not trigering as you said

Thanks
Yaron
