Hello, This is my first post, I hope someone can help me.
I have a 1990 Ford E150 van with the 5.8L, I have duel power seats which were working but are not now.
What I have done so far is check all connectors and secure all loose connections. I have checked power from the main power wire to the switches and from the switches to the connectors at the motors. which all have 12+Volts. I have run continuity on the switches and wiring, all seem good, so I have full power to everything, but the seats will not move. If I didn't know any better I'd think there was a bad ground but I can't find it other than the main ground wire at the switches themselves. So my question is, Do electric seats have a ground wire that should run from the frame of the seat to the van frame or metal floor? I'm at a loss as to why I have power to everything but no movement of either seat. Any suggestions are welcome at this point. Thank you.
