Captains Chairs recline?

Just picked up our new 2014 MA 4369. It is so beautiful. We have about a million questions. When we turn around the the cockpit chairs to face the living area, do they recline. If so...how? I have a button to move it up, down back and forward. One latch for rotation and another for who knows. A rocker switch for what may be a lumbar support and a heater button. Any info is greatly appreciated.

If you have Flexsteel chairs like the ones in my DS, the recline switch is on the left side of the seat.

It appears that our chairs are Villa...? In fact I was able to get the passenger chair to lift the footrest using a rocker switch on the left side. But it was hit or miss. Sometimes it works, other times no. Trying to get hold of Villa.

Last week I actually got Villa tech on the phone. A little bit of help but not much. Access to the underneath of the chairs is very limited. Mostly from the back skirt. Passenger seat: I found that the wiring from the switch and power to the switch is bundled and attached to the springs under the seat cushion. Then I found that the footrest worked if you activated the rocker switch without sitting in the chair but not if i sat or put pressure in the seat. Hmmm.... with the wires bundled to the seat springs, this has to be a clue. Still no life in the drivers seat

I have had both the power wire to the switch that controls the footrest and the main power wire come apart. My first step was to cut the wire bundles and re-attach and get everything working then carefully re-bundle the wires.
