[Shotimes] no power seats or door locks

If the fuse was not blown, It's more likely an OPEN wire.  Shorts are
usually what causes fuses to blow.

Check the lumbar and bolster controls on the pass seat.  They run off the
same power.  Check the same on the driver's side.  If only the pass seat is
affected, you know where to troubleshoot.  Power to the whole seat asembly
is via a 2 wire power cable.  One is ground, the other is battery power at
all times.

across a problem. I moved the passenger seat all the way forward. It
momentarily stopped then kept going. When I went to put it back it wouldn't
budge. Neither would the driver's seat - thankfully I hadn't moved it
forward yet. While at the gas station (under the big roof avoiding the rain)
I read the owner's manual and it tells me to check fuse #14. It's one of the
fat metal covered ones, but I find the thin plastic replacement fuse fits
just fine. Swap it out and no help.

windows still work but the latter two are dead. It's obviously not the
fuse - could it be a shorted wire under the passenger seat or something?
