Default C5 Issues, Post Seat Swap

Alright,

Finally got my Cobra Imolas installed last week in my C5. Unfortunately the seat slider did not provide me with adequate helmet clearance, so i mounted the seat fixed. Positioning is good, but went to adjust the telescoping steering column and "nothing", "not working". Anyone got any tricks to getting the telescopic steering column active again. I am sure with wiring diagram, I could sort it pretty quickly, but I figure this is not the first time this issue has come up.

Thank you,

When I put in my Corbeau FX-1 Pro's I transferred the SCM from the stock seat to the new seat. With connectors plugged-in the seat won't move (obviously) but, the steering wheel will move in conjunction with the memory selection.

Yep, based on wiring diagram I found, that looks like the only solution to maintain a functioning telescopic steering column.

Thanks
