“Overheated” may have been a poor choice of words although, we did see a little smoke.

The manual states that the seat motors have a built-in breaker that will trip if they get hot so I pulled “overheated” from that.

I had the motors checked out by a local, motor repair company last summer. I wrote about it here in my blog. So, I believe the two motors be in good working order.

I am just trying to piece this issue together. As stated here several time, The electrical (especially these motors) are not my super power.

The motors turned maybe 1 revolution before it stopped.

I will try to figure out if there is a binding issue.
