Default Seat problem

I have a 2009 Vette with the 3LS package Drivers seat will go back when I apply the emergency brake,but I have to manually use the button to advance the seat. I advance the seat about an inch or two then it will work properly. Any ideas?Rod

Not a problem, read your owners manual.

If you have a manual transmission all is working as it should.

Wow how helpful.

If your vehicle has this feature, memory can
program and recall the settings for the driver’s
seating position. The controls for this feature are
located on the driver’s door.

The numbers on the back of the keyless access
transmitters, 1 and 2, correspond to the numbers
on the memory buttons.


To program each button, use the following steps:

1. Adjust the settings for the driver’s seat
position, both outside mirrors, and the
telescopic steering column position to a
comfortable driving position.
2. Press and hold button 1 until two beeps are
heard, then release the button.
Your settings are now programmed.


A second seating, mirror, and telescopic steering
column position can be programmed by repeating
the above steps and pressing button 2 for driver 2.

To recall a memory position, do one of the
following:

• If you have an automatic transmission vehicle,
press and release the desired button 1 or 2
while the vehicle is in PARK (P).
A single beep will sound and the memory

position will be recalled after a brief delay.
If the vehicle is not in PARK (P), three beeps
will sound and the memory position will
not be recalled.

• If you have a manual transmission vehicle,
press and release the desired button 1 or 2.
If the vehicle is on, the parking brake needs to
be set to recall the memory position.
A single beep will sound and the memory

position will be recalled after a brief delay.
If the vehicle is on and the parking brake is not
set, three beeps will sound and the memory
position will not be recalled.

If your vehicle has the Auto Memory Recall
feature and it is turned on in the Driver Information
Center (DIC), the seat, mirrors, and telescopic
steering column position will automatically adjust
to their programmed positions when the engine
is started. See “Auto Memory Recall” under
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 232 for more
information.

To stop recall movement of the memory feature at
any time, press one of the power seat controls,
power mirror control buttons, memory buttons, or
the telescopic steering column switch.

Two personalized exit positions can also be
programmed to allow for an easy exit or entry into
the vehicle. The controls for this memory
function are located on the driver’s door.

B (Easy Exit Seat): This button is used to
program and recall the desired driver’s seat exit
position.

To program an exit position, use the following
steps:

1. Recall the desired driving position by pressing
button 1 or 2.
The seat will move to the programmed
memory position.


2. Position the seat and the telescopic steering
column position to a comfortable exit position.
3. Press and hold the exit button until two beeps
sound.
Your exit position is now programmed.


A second exit position can be programmed by
repeating the above steps and pressing the other
memory button.

To recall an exit position, do one of the following:

• If you have an automatic transmission vehicle,
press and release the exit button while the
vehicle is in PARK (P).
One beep will sound and the exit position for
the currently identified driver will be recalled.

• If you have a manual transmission vehicle,
press and release the exit button. The parking
brake needs to be set to recall the memory
position.
One beep will sound and the exit position for
the currently identified driver will be recalled.

If your vehicle has the Auto Exit Recall feature
and it is turned on in the DIC, automatic seat and
telescopic steering column movement to the
exit position will occur when you use the keyless
access transmitter to unlock your vehicle or
when you turn the engine off and open the driver’s
door. See “Auto Exit Recall” under DIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 232 for more information.
