Electric steering column not working

Good afternoon
My steering column won’t adjust.
All fuses are in tact I believe.
Could it be the switch on the column??

+1 on the above.
Do the memory buttons work for the seats.
If you need a module the range rover uses the exact same part and on that auction site we all know they go for a lot less money.

It can be the switch, they do fail sometimes. If there is no sound from the motor at all, it might be the switch or the motor itself.
