Power seat moves backward overnight
Easy entry is set to off, fob is programmed, everything else saves like it should.
when I park my 2003 coupe overnight and get back in the next day I can feel the clutch pedal is further away and I feel the seat being slightly further back. I believe the only movement is backward with everything else being the same. It confused me for the first few times it did this until I realized it's not my legs getting shorter. Is there a reason for the seat to move backward like this? Could it be a short?

The seat multifunction switch could be flukey and not properly returning to the OFF (center) position.
OR
Try programming the seat to a new more forward position and setting the memory to that position and then turning the easy entry to OFF. See if that changes anything.
