Default Senile seats

My seat seems to have developed alzheimer's lately. WTF is its problem. It doesn't seem to be able to remember where it's supposed to go.

Clearly a case of operator error......
I could help you with floor mats, Zaino vs NXT, and BSM....

03RagTop,
Don't forget, you need to use the unlock button on your keyfob (regardless whether car is locked or not) so the computer knows which driver setting to go to. Doors have to be closed also. If you press the recall button, #1 or #2, does that move the seat to where you expect it?

turn the seat thing off... I don't like it moving every time I enter and exit the vehicle.. it also wears it down more.. I have both 1 and 2 set to the same thing, so it doesn't matter which one its on... and I have that "entrance seat adjustment" thingy disabled....

Nope. It'll move forward a little, maybe, then stop. Then I have to move it the rest of the way so I can reach the clutch.

I do all that. It's been working for 2.5 years now. But suddenly it doesn't seem to remember where to go back to. I've reset it and reset it.
