2005 Tahoe keyless entry question?

[Old Goat]

Just got a 2005 Z71 Tahoe, and I am wondering about the Keyless entry and the Driver 1 and 2 settings. Can the keyless entry 1 & 2 unit's be made to set the seat positions also, or do you have to set the seat positions after you get in the vehicle?
Thanks,
Charles

On mine there is a setting on the in-car computer, "SEAT POSITION RECALL" or something that I had to set to ON in order for the seats to automatically go the position associated with my key.

Memory Seat




If your vehicle has this feature, the controls for the memory function are located on the driver's door.

These buttons are used to program and recall memory settings for the driver's seat, throttle and brake pedals and both the driver's and passenger's outside mirrors. The settings for these features can be saved for up to two drivers.

To store the settings, do the following:

While the vehicle is in PARK (P), adjust the driver's seat, including the seatback recliner, lumbar, and side wing area, throttle and brake pedals and both of the outside mirrors to your preference.
Press and hold the 1 or 2 button of the memory control for three seconds. A double chime will sound to let you know that the position has been stored.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver, follow the preceding steps, but press the other numbered memory control button.

Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the vehicle is in PARK (P), a single chime will sound and the memory position will be recalled.

To stop recall movement of the memory seat feature at any time, press one of the memory buttons or power seat controls.

Easy Exit Seat
The controls for this memory function are located on the driver's door.

(Easy Exit Seat): This button is used to program and recall the desired driver's seat position when exiting/entering the vehicle. The seat position can be saved for up to two drivers.


To store the seat exit position, do the following:

Press and release the 1 or 2 button. The seat will move to the stored memory position.
Adjust the seat to the desired exit position.
Press and hold the exit button of the memory control for three seconds. A double chime will sound to let you know that the position has been stored for the selected button (1 or 2).
To repeat the procedure for a second driver, follow the preceding steps, but press the other numbered memory control button.

To use the seat exit position, do one of the following:

• Press the exit button on the memory control.

• Or, if this feature is activated in the Driver Information Center (DIC), removing the key from the ignition will move the seat to the exit position.

See "Easy Exit Seat" under DIC Vehicle Customization for more information on activating this feature in the DIC.

I can't find "SEAT POSITION RECALL" on mine, guess I can't do it.
Driver button 1 & 2 on door work fine though.

I have a similar problem on my 05 Z71, but haven't seen an answer on getting the designated #1 remote to unlock and have the memory settings go to position #1... same for remote #2. I don't have a specific DIC setting for the remotes. Any ideas? I just want to be able to hit unlock with my remote and the seat goes from the easy exit (all the way back position) back to my memory #1 position.

 

[east302]

I have a 2003 that does what you are wanting...you use the #1 remote and the #1 settings are recalled when you hit the unlock button on the remote. Same for #2.

Sorry, but I'm pretty sure they discontinued that feature in 2004 or 2005.

The Driver Information Center would have a setting for "Seat Position Recall" if you have that feature.

If you don't see that menu, then you're out of luck. It was discontinued (probably) to save a few nickels during manufacture. They left the #1 and #2 written on the remotes though...probably cheaper to just leave them on there than redo their plastic molds.
