GT Limited/GT2 Drivers Seat “Reset”

[cncBilly]

My drivers seat was not returning to my preset position so I took it to the dealer and after a bit of discussion (they originally thought something needed to be replaced) and after a couple visits a tech “Reset” the seat and it worked properly again. Fast forward about 8-10 months and it’s at it again. I would like to save myself the frustration of another dealer visit so I’m wondering if any of our sharp techie types here might know how to do this and would be will to share the knowledge. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help. Cheers B.

Driver position memory system reset

If the Driver position memory system reset fails to work, initialize the system as follows.
How to initialize:
1. Stop the car and open the driver’s door with the Engine start/stop button in ON and the automatic shift lever in P (parking) position.
2. Pull the driver’s seat forward as far as possible and have the seat back upright as much as possible using driver’s seat forward adjustment and seatback angle (recline) movement switches.
3. Push SET button and seat forward movement switch button for 2 seconds simultaneously.

Initialization in the process :
1. Initialization begins as the alarm sounds.
2. The seat and seatback will auto-matically move backwards. The alarm sound will continue while the system is in operation.
3. Initialization will be all set after the seat and seatback move to the center with alarm sound being raised. If, however, any of the following occur, the initialization process will come to a stop and the alarm sound will stop as well.
- When pushing driving position memory system button
- When pushing driver’s seat height adjustment switch
- When changing the shift lever from P position to other positions
- When the driving speed exceeds 3 km/h (2 mph
- When the driver’s door is closed

Thank you so much! I’ll give it a try this afternoon and report back.

Did this yesterday, worked like a charm. Thank you very much. Send me a note next time you’re in Vancouver….I owe you a cold beer.

Same issue and this just fixed it. Thanks to OP and responder with the fix! Funny enough I was on an Alaska cruise a couple months ago and we stopped in Vancouver. Nice town.
