...memory seat thingy

I just had dealer installed new controller cuz MY TL had memory seat loss... and before replacing it with new controller, everytime I used lumber support the light didnt lit but now with new controller, I lumber support isn't working with memory. Because on # 2 I dont have lumber support set so, when I pressed # 1, the seats went back to its position but not the lumber support.

Can some one confirm that and let me know before I take it back to dealer.

Btw for the first time, today headerline fell down... took it right away to the dealer and got it fixed, hope it stays there.

I don't think it does.

Mine does not work with the memory. I played with it for a while, and once in a while, when I pressed the lumbar button, the memory button light would go off, so it may just be picking up a stray electrical pulse. I did not lose any memory when this happened. But the memory definitely does not retain the lumbar setting.

Ron A is right (as usual) and there's a good reason for this. The seat motors, except for the lumbar adjustment, are controlled electronically, meaning when you fiddle with one of the switches you are actually sending an electronic signal to the motor. So it's easy for the system to electronically "remember" the settings. The lumbar adjustment is different, more primitive if you will. It's controlled electrically, meaning it operates more like a light switch. When you press the button, you directly alter the path of electric current to the motor, thereby either inflating or deflating the lumbar support. Lacking an electronic control, the lumbar switch can't be "remembered." It COULD have been engineered electronically, just like fancy light switches with memory dimmers. But it wasn't. So there.

To bad the ads say the lumbar is part of the memory seats.
