Depending on how much current came down the line will determine how much damage has been done, it could have blown any circuit boards or even the motor, contact your electricity provider, they are liable for any damage.
First, check the power with a volt meter on the receptacle you are plugged into. (or plug a lamp into the receptacle and make sure it turns on. believe it or notI have seen this many times) If power is fine, then remove the back of the chair (with the cord unplugged) and stabilize the back of the chair as the wires hang from the back of the chair to the chair itself. Plug back in your chair and check power to the on/off switch on the back of the chair, if you have power there then it gets a little more complicated. Again, unplug the chair, remove the black plastic cover on the lower left of the chair that covers the main circuit board. You should see a soldered in fuse, use an ohm meter and check the fuse for continuity. If it reads good or "shorted" then you are past my knowledge in this matter. Hope I could be of some assistance.
Test the resistor for continuity if it has a continuity readind with the power off then it is bad, you can get the replacement parts at radio shack and change the fuse and the resistor out with a soldering gun.
