Power seats not working

i just installed my buddys power drivers seat into my max which didnt have it originally. Everything is hooked up correctly, but no power. I looked on the fuse box to see if there was a power seat fuse, but could only find a heated seat fuse. Is there something i'm forgetting to do or do i need to get a fuse, or does it simply not work? Thanx

according to the fsm for my 97, the power wire to the seat is yellow with a black stripe. that wire should be hot all the time as the seat works with the car turned off. power comes from a 30 amp fuse, to a circuit breaker to the seat.

The fuse is under the hood and also powers your windows and other stuff. the circuit breaker is only used by the seat. i'm not sure exactly where the circuit breaker is located at, its in the passenger compartment under the dash, behind the fuse block, possibly on the firewall. it is next to another circuit breaker used by your windows and door locks.
