seat no longer moves back when removing key

Hey all,

I was cleaning the carpets one day, moving the driver's seat forward and back (all the way) to clean the carpet. All of a sudden the seat does not move back automatically when I remove the key. If I move it back manually, next time I start the car, the seat will move back to the original position. Any ideas? The menu setting is set to (wheel + seat).

Try resetting the menu option.

(1) Disable the setting in menu.
(2) Turn on the ignition.
(3) Turn off the ignition.
(4) Reset to (wheel+seat).
(5) Turn on the ignition.
(6) Turn off the ignition.

Hopefully this will reset it. Otherwise, contact your dealer.

I think I tried that, but I'm not sure if I turned off the car inbetween (or if I let it sit there long enough). I hate going to the dealer for a problem as miniscule as this, but oh well...
