There are three motors. The one motor moves the seat forward and reverse, one for up and down and one for the tilt. So you may have a problem with the switch. It's possible the switch contacts inside have worn out.
Check for any kind of obstructions in the track. If there is nothing there, you can try to have someone push the bottom of the back of the seat while you push the forward button, and vice versa. Sometimes the rails get stuck from debris or something wedged in the track. The only other thing I can think of is to take the seat out, remove the drive shaft and try to knock the track free with a hammer.
