Unhappy '02 Camry: Driver's Power seat has problems!

Hi All:
Yesterday onwards the driver's power seat has stopped moving forward-backword horizontally. It can till tilt and go up/down. I can hear a click when I push the button to move it horizontally but there is no movements. What could be the problem? Any obvious thing that I can chceck? Tracks look clear but I havent looked at it closely. Could it be just the weak battery? Is there any bypass for power stuff to convert it into manual mode? I went to dealer, they ask $90/hour for diagnosys charges to just to look into it. This is a 2002 Camry LE 4 cl. with 40k miles on it.
As Always folks, thanks in advance for yout time!

HOld the button, then jolt the seat a bit by moving forward and back really hard, see if that helps

The seat controls are all on the same DC power system. If the tilt, etc works the battery is OK. You need to see if the forward/back motor works and if it is getting power. Might be just the control switch.

The seat should not be that difficult to remove and tilt back with the wiring still hooked up, then use an voltmeter to check things out.

I guess thats next. I touched the all the motors underneath physicallly and my guess is that the motor does try to work but its the gear that is stuck. Thanks-

Does anyone here know how i can get the wiring diagram for power seat? Thanks.
