Drivers seat not retracting when I exit car


Recommended Posts

I have the drivers seat set so it fully retracts when ignition turned off in the settings menu to make it easier to exit car but recently it is not moving when ignition is turned off. Seat is fully functional when using adjustment buttons on side of seat. The pre-sets on the door 1,2 & 3 all work. The steering wheel retracts ok. Anyone had this problem or know what's causing this. My car model is 2014 Lexus GS300h.

I see in the owners manual there are several different fuses for the seat, is it possible one could have blown?

I had this on my car recently.

It seems to happen if the seat is set too high/low or the position of the seat is changed before the vehicle is turned on.

Try to put the seat higher or lower and see if it makes any difference

This was from Julncamp54 and it worked the seat now retracts when I turn off ignition to get out of car.   AMAZING :

Had a similar problem with the drivers seat not doing what I thought it should do. The steering wheel would tilt but the seat remained in wrong position or wouldn’t move.

this is a cure. Hybrid system on, in park ,  move seat fully forward and hold for 10 secs move seat full back hold for ten secs. Do same for  seat back,

now set  the seat position u want  and then press set and 1 with 3 secs.

shut hybrid system down , get out of car and lock it, wait two minutes then get into the car, power up then press seat position  1 

seat should now move to correct position.

Note if you move seat from set position the seat will auto remember it’s last position

hope that helps
