PROBLEM: Passenger seatback will no longer tilt forward.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Had a really tall guy in the seat and, while driving and trying to focus on driving in NYC traffic, I pressed the seatback recline back switch for probably to long a time. It will, however, recline back, just not forward. All other switches work, just not the button that will make the seat back go forward.
PROBABLE ISSUE: My research suggests that I need to replace the switches on the seat. Any one want to challenge that?

Thanks for your collective help...
Before 'ripping up the interior', try doing a simple ohm check on the switch. If the switch doesn't ohm out, then replace the switch. The other possibility is that it's gotten dirty. Pull the whole switch, clean it with a spray electrical cleaner, blow it out with compressed air and reinstall.
