Reset Seat Settings?

Does anyone know how to clear the 1,2 and 3 programmed seat settings on the door back to factory where nothing is saved to any of them? I get in and out of my truck all day and work and 90 percent of the day i have my drivers seat reclined back...when i get back in and start the truck the seat proceeds to adjust to one of the programmed settings.

The simplest way to do it is.

1 Adjust seat to where you want it
2 Press and hold one of the buttons until it beeps. If you continue to hold it it will beep again, then select the lock or unlock button on the fob this will adjust that number to the Fob in your hand.

3 Do this for each of the settings and if you have two Fobs and you shouldn't have to touch it again.

I know this is not how to clear any setting *** you asked but it will do basically the same thing.

Also I have mine reclined sometimes when I got back into my truck. Turns out I was just sliding my big butt over then sliding out of the seat, when I did this I would hit the recline button every once in awhile.

Why not just add a reclined position at #3?

Turn off easy entry and exit in the dash settings. The seat will automatically adjust to whatever setting is saved to the key fob you are using.

For me, I didn't want the seat adjusting every time I got in and out as well. What I did was program the button where to the driving position and went into the settings within the truck and turned the seat motion off. It will stay in whatever position I want until I need to drive and all I have to do is hit the seat postion botton.

i cracked up at having 3 presets....in my mind there is no way three people are going to be driving my truck enough to get a setting in fact my wife has not driven it yet, so #2 is empty as well

i use # for backing up the trailer, i set the mirrors to change tilt and pan. works great and i dont have to fiddle around .
but may have to do the recline option.

Great idea! I do have a slightly different seating position (and obviously the mirrors) while towing the 5er. Gonna steal this idea.
Thx,
Troy

Just remember you have to be in Park or neutral for the seats to move.

You don't want to hit a number by mistake and have the seat move further or closer to the wheel while you are driving.
