typical - cleaning the car today - used the switch to bring the passenger seat fully forward to hoover the rear carpet and now it will not go back - I press the switch on the side of the seat at the top and nothing happens.

Before I dive into the fuse box has anyone had this problem and solved it

2011 - E92 - 335D - LCI

all other electric seat functions work

any ideas - the fuses are a pain to remove especially with my back problems?

Update

took the seat out - 4 bolts - seat very heavy - be careful no to scratch the sill, better with 2 people

a CV-19 mask had wrapped around the "spindle" that comes out of the motor - a real mess - paper, plastic and the thin "nose" wire wrapped around it so it could hardly move - took ages to remove all the stuff and part had entered the motor housing - luckily that bit came out relatively easily.

Put the seat back - tried the buttons, nothing - ??? - turned the ignition on and all worked as it should - ignition off and again worked as it should - maybe it needed to re-set itself after the power lead to the seat had been unplugged.

So, finger crossed, all fine now
