I havent had a chance to take anything apart but after a bit in all data it appears the seats aren't really meant to be serviced too much, aside from the lower frame which has a TSB for rust issues.
This is a 2003 EB with the bench seat, the problem seat is the outboard seat on the driver side.
Prior to last night they've worked fine. The seatback was folded and the seat was lowered into the fold flat position. After running some errands and u loading the car the driver side 2nd row seat will not return to its upright position. It lifts up from the floor and locks into place but when attempting to raise the seatback it gets approx halfway. It will fold, flip forward, etc. The only thing it wont do is go back to full upright. I've looked everywhere and don't see anything thays obviously loose/broken. All levers have the same range of motion and tension (comparing to the passenger side of the vehicle).
I'm at a loss as to what might be wrong without blindly dismantling things. There was nothing heavy on it, nothing made any cracks, pops, or otherwise. It just binds up. Very strange...
Has anyone else had this happen and fixed it? I tried the obvious push hard, quick, etc. I stopped when I felt like if I tried any harder something might actually break.
Pic attached to show where it stops.
