Power Seats Failure

Power Seats Failure
1999 C280, 95K miles.
The power seats in both passenger and driver are failing to move after car startup. I only regain control after 15-30 minutes of driving. I checked the battery voltage hours after driving and had 13.6V. I checked the voltage a day after driving, early morning, 12.4-13V was the range.
I also checked the fuse box in the front of the car, but I failed to find any problems. I am dumbfounded because the power seats will work after some time, since if it would have seized altogether, I could have checked the motors, and etc.
I havent idled the car for 30 minutes to see if that will make the seats work, but I assume it will since I have idled for 10-15 minutes and then after a couple of minutes of driving the power seats work again as opposed to the 15-30 minutes of driving.
Thanks for the help.
