2008 Silverado power seat trouble

[cwestallen]

My 08 Silverado LTZ is equipped with heated power seats. The passenger seat will not slide back and forth. All other motions work (seat back moves, tilt to seat bottom, etc). When I move the switch I hear what sounds like a solenoid clicking, but the seat will not move. I am completely unfamiliar with the workings of the seat. Is it one motor that controls everything? Or a motor for each? Is there a way to fix this problem?

Thanks

different motors for each function. See if the connectors are the same and swap the failing function for one that works. If the swap stops work replace the motor that is bad. If the motor is good, check wiring and ground,

I would like to be a bit more familiar with the unit before I do anything. Thank you for the response.

An update. The motor has power, but when I move the switch it only turns about a half turn then stops. There was a piece of my daughters toy wrapped around the shaft coming out of the motor. I git it un-tangled, but it didn't help. Could the motor be burnt out?
