Unhappy Drivers seat wont go back

My drivers seat wont go back. I have to manually setup my seats. I was thinking possibly a coin got lodged into some kind spot that makes the seat locked. Or it could possibly be something with a gear ?

Can you hear the motor spinning? If so, it's likely the plastic worm gear.

Can you hear a humming sound of the motor but not spinning? If so, it's likely a blockage in the track.

Can you hear nothing at all? If so, it's likely a fuse/wiring/dead motor issue.

Oh... You threw me off with the mention of a gear. That stinks! Won't go forward or backward? If you can get at the bolts, I would pull the seat and see what's going on. It's far easier than crouching upside down under the seat.
