The power seat in my volvo 940SE won't move forward. It does do everything else. Is there a manual override to readjust the seat?

Need to replace one of the two cables for forward and backwad. The tiny gear inside already worn out. However need to take out whole seat to do replacement.

you will need to check to make sure no coins fell into the track and is jammed it if not you will need to replace the bottom frame of the seat possible with a junk yard one much cheaper than buying new and junkyard frames come complete.

SOURCE: 2001 Volvo V70 drivers power front seat will move forward only.

if you hear a clicking sound from under the seat when trying to move backward then its not the switch. check the motor instead

SOURCE: My Volvo C70 - 2002-

There is a plastic piece that holds the return spring for the switch on the seat back release. When this piece breaks, the switch can't indicate that the release is back in the lock position. You will have to take part of the seat apart to replace this piece. There could be something else causing this problem, but this is the most common.

SOURCE: I have a 2007 Volvo XC90 and the driver's power seat won't adjust. It won't move at all. Is there an override somewhere that can allow me to move it manually?

no try jumping at switch if still wont work motors bad.
