2012 GL450

Hello everyone!
New member here
this is my first thread! I apologize if this has been posted before, and if it has, please forward me the link
I’ve been thinking of buying a gl like, forever, and finally got a 2012 gl450
it has a few issues, so i wanted to ask any fellow members here, that might know
All driver side seat adjustments buttons work, but the height one. Does anyone know if this is a fuse thing, or something more serious
thanks in advance!!

seat buttons

Highly advise to buy a good Testing system .. my Star System within a few minutes would tell me if all the buttons were working . I don’t have experience with the Autel high end systems but I am sure if you ask fellow X-164 guys will tell you. Get a fuse chart and check the fuse panel .. all info you will need .
1. testing system
2. Know where all the relay and fuse panels are located and what they control
Tell us a little about your GL
Miles.. any maintenance history of what’s been replaced ?

Very likely the switch itself, accompanied by a “seat position implausible” stored code when the cars memory is read out in a short test.
