95 lincoln town car power driver seat goes forward, but not back?

slide the seat all the way forward , this should reveal the bolts at the rear ,once removed slide seat all the way back then undo the front bolts

The automatic driver's seat may have been programed not to move forward when the key is in and go back when it's taken out. Or are you saying it doesn't move forward, back and not at all from the control on door panel?

might be as simple as replacing the fuse #601 in the BJB (battery junction box) under the hood

this single fuse controls power to ALL the functions of the seat, up/down, forward/aft, tilt and back rest

additionally, there is only one ground!

if ANY of these work then the fuse and/or ground is not the concern

furthermore, since the seat actually contains 4 separate motors it is quite unlikely all 4 failed

so if the seat will not function in any/all positions then you are most likely dealing with a switch problem!

replace the switch and let me know your results

Turn on radio on half and get in the back seat and listen for distortion and if that dont work turn off the key unplug one speaker at a timeuntil you find it the wire are in the trunck connected to the speaker.Listen then not exceeding the power on the speaker and you wont need to turn it up that loud you will notice whats blown quickly.

can you hear the motor trying to run?

It has a separate motor for each function. Could be binding on the track too. try pushing forward while hitting hte switch

Try pushing back as you work the switch forward and backward. The most likely problem is a stuck runner. Remove the two front bolts and the two rear nuts from the seat legs and tilt the seat backwards to clean and lubricate the runners

The driver's seat in my 2001 Lincoln has a grinding sound when I try to move it forward (It's in the back position What is the problem?

The only way to solve this issue is to extract the seat and inspect. The front and back movement is different from the other actions that the seat may be able to do...

Look for damaged, dirty and miss aligned track components.

It is likely the gear on the motor came off track with the seat. The seat will have to be removed and bottom panel disassembled.

the switch is bad and needs replaced. spray some lubricant down in the switch assembley and move the switch forcefully back and forth several times and see if you can get it to move back
