STEERING WHEEL NOT SLIDING N E MORE WTF??

So yeah, the steering wheel won't slide up and down anymore when I start the car or park the car and take the key out. Did I push some random button to make it stop?? Whatevr.........

dunno how this sucker operates, suggest finding out if there is an associated fuse which may have let go, otherwise, would suspect driver motor problem, just a guess, good luck

what year and how many miles? more than likely a warranty item

Does your slide? Its an 09 with 4,000 miles on it. Bought the car with 3,000 and worked fine for a few weeks. Idk I have a feeling that I pushed something that automatically deactivated it. Or I maybe wrong. grrrrr.....

Is it at the top position already? And asking bumps 40 odd minutes later, and at 3:55AM US time (when the majority of the users of this board are dead asleep) is silly.

I know it is going to sound stupid but have you checked the manual?
Maybe it has to do something with seats memory?

check to make sure the easy entry exit is still selected in the speedo display. pretty sure thats what makes the steering wheel move up and outta the way.

Do you have Easy Entry/Exit enabled in settings? I'm not sure what it's under, maybe Vehicle settings or Convenience.

EDIT: savoy6 beat me to it
