Could be a bad wiring harness, or just a loose connection under the seat where the power module connects to the cars wiring harness, it could also just be a simple matter of a loose fuse making partial contact from time to time. Hope this helps. .... ohhh also if the seat has been wet it could be causing the motor (s) in the seat adjustment unit (s) to short out.
There is a good chance of it, manufacturers figured out that it can be cheaper to make one part for all models and options, if there is a separate fuse for seats you might need to add it to the fuse box to power that part of the harness up, but there is a good chance that if you have an extra connector under the drivers seat that you are good to go.
There are 4 electric motors under each seat and a 5th inside the back rest. Also under each seat is a module containing the relay and memory module It is possible to run new wires but the job will be much simpler if you have (or can get) a pair of original wiring harnesses to go between the module and the harness behind the centre console (remove ashtray, lighter and storage bin) Spade terminals can be used if the module is missing. Make sure the wiring colours all match.
Of course, this is a simplified explanation. Go to Rovers.net for more detail

check the wiring harness below the seat. The harness includes the power to the driver power seat as well as the seat heaters for both fron seats. My 2003 has a contact issue where it only works when another person puts pressure around the harness and wires (Bad Connection). This happened after 2 years of use with this harness. harness has been replaced 3 times over 7 years
Check the wiring harness connect under the seat and carpeting for a break in the wires to the seat. If no problem is found, then the seat motor is bad.
the drivers seat wiring harness is rubbed through and shorted to the metal frame of the seat, pull the seat out and remove the wiring harness look for a bare wire, repair that.
