Default Memory Seat and wheel placement Functions?

I've programmed my memory seat functions as well as the auto-features when you exit the car. I can't seem to get the auto-features to work when I start the car. I have to use the button on the door to have the placement for wheel/seats/mirrors work. What am I missing?

i think there is something in the menus to make it active. Check in the infotainment system under set up

I found the Settings menu items for seat memory and set them. Still not doing it.

There are some differences. See service bulletin below:

My 19 ZO6 manual seems to only work if the parking brake is set

Had this happen when I was carrying fob #2, but programming for driver #1. Your original fobs are electronically coded, and should show up momentarily when you start the car.

Same experience as RonF-vette, that I thought the seat/wheel/mirror memories were wacky. The Corvette-specialist salesman wasn't available when my car was delivered (was his wedding anniversary), so his substitute met my wife and I. He handed each of us a fob; I got #2 and my wife got #1. They're not marked and you have to watch the DIC at start-up to know which one you have.

Yes. Manual transmission cars require the brake be on.

Two things;
1. You need to enable these features in the settings menu
2. If you have the seat pushed all the way back the memory feature does not work You need to set it a little before full back setting. I know it's weird but it is what it is

It''s just like your girlfriend. Buy her something shiny and it will work for a while. Repeat as necessary.
