My drivers seat stopped moving mid stream and I believe it is a fuse as none of the functions on it are working. I replaced the motors a few months ago and have worked beautifully since. Does anyone know what fuse or relay controls the power to the drivers seat. I looked on the panel cover under the dash and under the hood. None indicate power seat motors. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am 6'3" and my wife was in the process of adjusting to her 5'0" height when it stopped. So needless to say she will be enjoying my car until this is resolved. Thanks again for the help.

It's probably not the fuse it's probably the switch on the seat. Smack it a few times with your hand and see if it starts working again (I had to do this in my 2k2 Maxima from time to time). If not then it needs replacement but you should obviously make sure it's the switch.

Wiring schematic for the seat system is here: http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/i35/2003/el.pdf on page EL-251

its the brushes on the motor. common problem.

tap the motor a few times, or buy new seat rails from a local yard. i had the SAME problem on my 2002 gle maxima. (or just wait for winter. idk why, but in the real cold, the seat worked fine.)
