I think it would be a good bet that there are similarities. I have seen lots of GM 6-way power seats with the motors attached to the seat mechanism via transmission cables. If this is the way yours is I bet you could find another in the junkyard. It may be the clutch/transmission cable which is bad if the motor was running but I think they come as a single assembly. You very well might have blown a fuse, especially if the other motors no longer work, if they still do work the motor in question may have burned up with the exessive activity of you working it during troubleshooting. At any rate, look in the local junkyard, I bet you will find something from maybe a caddy or a buick.
