Not sure how I managed to get this thing stuck within 5 min of "new to me" ownership but my middle "40" section seat is stuck in the stow position with the seat back up. In this position I cannot put lay the seatback flat (or recline it anymore). Any ideas on getting this back to the normal seating position or getting the seat back to lay flat? The middle "60" section has an issue where once moved from the "stow" to normal seated position, I have to tug on the cables underneath to "release" the lever so the back can be tilted to normal seating position. *found from another post in this forum*
