Default Lumbar support intermittent

Hey guys, has anyone had any issues with the lumbar support being intermittent? Got in the car yesterday to go home, went to adjust the lumbar and got nothing. When I got home I turned the car off then stated it again and got the support to move very slightly. This morning the support moved a little more than yesterday then stopped.
I couldn't get it to move either way. I will try to check during my lunch for a loose connection. But has anyone experienced this yet?

I had this happen to me, but was fortunately to have it replaced under warranty.

A good place to start would be to bypass the switch and see if it works fine by jumping it forward and reverse. If it still does the same thing it is either the motor or something in the power or ground path.

They replaced the motor. But under warranty, they always replace instead of trying to take the motor apart and figure out what's wrong with it.
