Default Seat has lost it's memory

Today the C6 started going back upon exiting however it will not come back to the memory position. It's four months old with 4500 mi. I know how the memory works and have reset the memory position several times yet it won't remember that position.

Any suggestions?

2 things to try. Assuming you haven't unplugged anything under the seat.

Sometimes disconnecting the battery negative for 10 minutes or more will reset these glitches.

Sometimes the seat needs to be retrained. You do this by using each seat movement switch throughout its entire range, to re-establish their zero and endpoints. Then relearn the memory button.

Check the connections under the seat.

Remate the connector.

I had a little intermittant problem and reclipped the connector under the seat up and out of the way of the carpet when the seat is moving back and forth.

Well, I went out this morning and ran the seat all the way back and then forward a couple times and it works fine now. I don't know what that would do

At least with the C5 memory seat I was told the system may lose it's 0 and endpoints. So this retrains it.
