‘05 seat not working

[Salley1518]

The driver seat on my 2005 Dinali XL has not worked for sometime. The wiring harness is a 14 pin harness and pins A (battery positive?) and S (ground?) are chard. The fuse tests good for continuity. What would cause the pins to burn and not blow the fuse? And why doesn't the seat work?


What's the fix? TIA.

You are probably going to have to take an electric meter and test everything out. If I had to guess, I'd say something gunked up the crack causing the load on one or more of the motors to be too great, blowing the system. But since the fuse is good, I can't really say. If you don't want to test it out, you can use the parts canon; just watch FB Marketplace, Craigslist, etc. for part-outs of Avalanche, Escalade, Sierra, Silverado, Suburban, and Yukon from 2003-2006 + 2007 Classic. Buy seats with working motors -- ones with shredded leather/cloth go cheap! -- and the rest of the power seat parts. Then you can test until you figure it out.
