Dharn55's post in Power driver seat was marked as the answer
That is the cable drive from the motor to the seat. It has come loose so you can here the motor working but the seat does not move. Happened to my buddy on his car. On power seats there are three or four motors, one for the fore and aft movement, one for the backrest movement and I think one each for the front and back of the seat bottom to raise and lower them. From each of these motors there is a plastic sheathed drive cable. The end of the cable are square and fit into the motor and the gear mechanisms on the seat. There can come loose and/or break. The part number is 996.521.609.00, list price $23.78. You have to take the seat out to get at these motors and cables. Sometimes you can fix the attachment by often you have to replace the drive cable.
