Drivers Memory Seats

[Alan Tann]

The memory seat option has never worked since I bought my MK2 LS. I have a Lexus technical CD this point to a problem with the steering column. Any ideas, the seat belt button works so I'm guessing it's not the control panel it's self? Thanks Alan.

Did you get any beep when trying? You have to hold one button in and press the other till it beeps.

Hi Alan, try tightening/aligning the contacts to the tilt/telescopic control box

a grey plastic box in the footwell.

I recently had a fault fixed with my steering column tilt, it also cured the seat belt height control,which had not been working.

therefore ? this box also controls the memory seats and seat belt height?

worth a try, if you do this it can take a few hours to take effect, mine went intermitent for

a while, before working perfectly .... no idea why?

hope this helps

Rich.

No beeps but the seat belt height control works.

Hope this might give you some more ideas.

Alan, there are about 20 pairs of contacts (little pins) in the tilt/telescopic control box.

each for a different function of tilt / telescopic / seat belt height / memory seats. If I am correct.

try adjusting them so they make a secure contact.

Or get your mechanic to do so.

It worked for me!

Thanks for you help, took of the fuse cover under the steering wheel and made sure that all the fuses were secure.

Bingo! Memory functions now work!

Thanks Alan.
