ford scorpio 16v 1995 ultima

i wonder if someone could help me. i ve stumbled across this site and would be most grateful for some advice.
i recently had the misfortune of a car valet. the valeting company moved the electric driver seat back and now it wont return to the original position so just lies flat.
i ve taken it to the local fords but they are only prepared to replace the seat with a brand new one for about 300 quid.
has anyone got any advice on what the problem might be or what to do?

Check they did not pull out the connector under the seat - maybe when vacuuming!

Do any other electric functions of the seat work ?, If not check fuse 6 (30 amp) in the main fuse box.

the function to move the base of the seat works but to move the back of the seat will only move back. it has already been reclined to its full extent but wont return. when depress the switch you can hear it trying to do something but nothing happens so there appears to be power.

Mine had the same problem. Its the switch. I cut 2 wires. red/yellow and i cant remember the other and just swapped them over. Was a pain if the wife drove as the wires are behind the plastic over on the side of the seat.
