Electric Bolsters ?
 
Has Anyone Ever Had Problems With Thier Motors In Thier Bolster Seats ? My Port Side Bolster Will Go Down But Will Not Go Up !! , When I Stored It For The Winter It Was Fine....., I Noticed That On The Fuse Panel It Has A Fuse That Is Unlike Any Other That I Have Seen,it Has Some Sort Of A Block On It, Any Suggestions On Where I Should Begin Would Be Greatly Appreciated....

The block on the fuse means nothing...it's some sort of relay or some sort or breaker...I had to replace the motor on my port side...people move it up and down while sitting in it...mine would go down then only go up if u helped it(pulled up real hard while hitting the switch... call Dana at doller offshore...they should have one in stock...btw-the motor was fine but the end was stripped and it's brass so just buy the whole unit for when one of the motors go.

Make sure you check the switch mine did the same thing ended up being a loose conection on the switch good luck!

Check and make sure you have power to both sides of the switch and for any loose connections. Replacing a motor is an adventure

if it worked when you put it away, something probably corroded...clean all the contacts..if its got a plug on the seat, unplug it and try using some jumper wires from a battery charger. if that doesnt fix it smack it with a hanner, if that doesnt do it, you probably need to pull the brushes and clean them.

Switch would be the more common fix......
