To fix a stuck lumbar adjustment in a 2017 Cadillac CT6, try the following steps:

1. Check Power Supply – Ensure the ignition is on, as some seat adjustments require power.
2. Use Controls Properly – Press the forward or rearward buttons (for base lumbar adjustment) or the corresponding buttons for uplevel lumbar and upper back support.
3. Reset the System – Turn off the ignition, wait a few minutes, and restart the vehicle to reset electronic controls.
4. Inspect for Obstructions – Check if any objects are blocking seat movement.
5. Manual Adjustment Attempt – Gently apply pressure in the direction of movement while using the control.
6. Check for Seat Malfunctions – If the lumbar adjustment still does not work, there may be an electrical or mechanical issue requiring professional inspection.

If the problem persists, consult a certified mechanic or dealership for further diagnosis and repair.
