So sorry for that. I was really hoping this would work for you. I would then suggest that maybe you can find a car junk yard (we have several around us) and just remove a chair that's in working order. (you will need to have a battery and possible a key to make sure the chair moves)Pulled the switch out and did my best to clean it. Could not take it apart for fear of not being able to put it back together. I was able to open it up, but not safely remove the switch itself. I did pull one side up (unclipped and pried it up) to get better access to spray the contact cleaner. But it did not resolve my issue. Still just get a loud click under the seat, although it sounded louder than before. But that may just be because the plastic trim was no longer over the motor area. I had to put it all on hold as I was trying to bypass the switch by shorting the contacts on the board and managed to short the wrong set, blowing the fuse. I will pick up more fuses later and continue working on it. For now it is parked.
I also am considering taking the switch from the passenger side to see if that fixes the problem on the drivers side. But TBH I have not even looked to see if they are the same switch or not yet.
Problem solving it with a multi-meter to see that the commands get where they need might be the best option without breaking the bank. You can also test with load to confirm nothing fails on that part.
I will keep you posted as I go through my problem solving!
