The circuit is fairly simple. Puts 12 volts across the motor which is what the switch does.

 

So either one of the two wires is internally broken or the electric motor is goosed.

 

Is this a VW seat or other?

 

If VW, the wires should be orange and grey, including the T-offs from the height adjustment switch which supply the power to the backrest adjustment switch.

 

Check the interconnecting wires between the two switches are OK, then line check or voltage check the orange & grey to the backrest adjustment motor.

 

Doesn't matter which way 12 volts is applied, the switch reverses the supply to get direction movement.
