I was wondering if anyone out there knows what the white wire and the blue wires polarity might be. There are only two wires connected to the seat. I'm not sure if one is 12v and one is ground or what. I thought maybe somebody may be able to help.
Thanks,

White is usually the ground. On my Sebring seats, I hooked up the battery the way I thought it would be and then played with the controls. Pushing the button forward should make the seat go forward. . .etc. Mine actually worked backwards if I wired it backwards.
Good luck!

I thought at first that maybe the seats got their ground from the mounting bolts. I'll hook up a battery and see what happens. I just hope I don't fry the motors or what ever.

Glad I could help, but don't forget to fuse the circuit. I'd check the car that the seats came out of to find out what size fuse to use.
