Default C7 seat preset problem

I have 2014 C7 Stingray. I am having issues using the drivers set preset recall. I have activate the automatic seating to have my set fully slide back. When I try to use my recall buttons either nothing happens or the steering wheel might move a minor amount.

I discovered that if I manually move my seat forward slightly, the recalls work perfectly. But fail to if the is fully back.

What is up with that?

Your seat is hitting the bulkhead limiter switch. Set your exit position just slightly forward of all the way back.

If there is a exit position setting, it is at factory default. I never set it.

How do set/change it?

There is a forum member who's daughter does some great how-to Vette videos. She covered this exact thing. Don't have the link, but a quick search here or YouTube should surface it.
