Default 2006 Honda Accord ex coupe seat won’t recline

Hey everyone I recently got me a gas saver and the driver side seat is power, everything works except the back recline, it doesn’t make any sound when you try and recline it, it will (slide forward/backward) seat heaters work, and the bottom part of the seat will tilt (front-up/down)(back-up/down) but it don’t tilt and lay back with the recline switch neither frontwards or backwards and doesn’t make sound, it’s not a fuse for the recline, so could it be a wire or the switch not getting good connection or a bad switch? ( passenger seat is manual)

I'm moving this to General Tech. The "HAF Help" section is for questions about how the website works, not about your car.

Have you checked for circuits that don't have power? Or loose/flaky plugs under the seat?

The car model trim level is probably an EX-L, not EX, due to it having sliding, recline, and seat heaters. EX is only Up-Down.

See post # 4 in this other thread to test the recline motor.
