Default Memory Woes

Is it possible to somehow clean or tune up the various devices that are controlled via the memory module?

Often times it will put the drivers side mirror all the way down, the passenger's side mirror all the way up, and the seat will only go halfway forward. Then everything stops as if the car is like, 'Yep, that's your memory setting!'

If I manually move the mirrors a bit to get them close to the remembered position, they will usually reset themselves when I hit the memory recall button.

In addition, my seat doesn't really like to move very much. If I raise or lower the front or rear, it may go forward but not backward or visa versa. Once I raise/lower it again from where I adjusted it, it'll move back and forth again. What gives?

Thanks guys.

Not sure what may be going on with the Memory recall. Not at home.

With regard to the seat, it sounds like you probably need to pull the seat and lubricate the mechanism. If it gets stuck to the rear you could get screwed with regard to assessing the rear mounting bolts. Not good.

Here is video to review.
