Default Telescoping wheel and memory seat problems

code 2852 steering column switch shorted to ground
code 2857 steering column switch shorted to ground
code 2860 steering column position sensor failure
my seat works normally powered by switch, but will not go to memory position, easy exit or entry does not work, and steering column will not move at all. Biggest question is how to go abou5 troubleshooting this and where to look.

Well I replaced the column switch from one I ordered off eBay, and removed my seat control module from drivers seat. And had local electronics guy check the module and he told me he had to redo almost all the solder joints do to cold joints. I had no bad connectors everything looked good connection wise.I reinstalled and column moves normally seat moves normally and all memory recall functions are working normally. Electronics guy charged me 40 bucks to look at and fix my module. I am a very happy corvette owner again.
