Default intermittent problem, please help

2003 c5 having intermittent problem. electric driver side seat and column do not work sometimes. checked all fuses-o.k. took car to the dealer and electric column was working, when i got home it stopped again along with driver side seat. easy exit and entry programmed to be on and this feature does not work even when column is working. i figure there is a power module of some sort that is no good. any ideas?
any help appreciated, dealer can't find fix because twice when i took the car there it was working o.k.
thanks

This will sound silly, but I saw a thread on another forum about some owners not gently but firmly inserting the key all the way, and hitting the detent that triggers the easy entry/exit feature. That possible?
