Default Can't adjust Entry/Exit mode on my 2003 because the button isn't here.

My 2003 s type came with a 2002 handbook, but it's been accurate for the most part. I'm looking at the 2003 one online and it states that there's a switch on next to the window power buttons that adjusts entry/exit mode. I don't have one. Where can I find the switch?

Possibly an optional extra?

I got my car back from a repair shop one day and I this feature was somehow enabled. I know I have it, I just don't know where

Yes, but I have no auto settings. My computer got reset because I had someone change the battery.

You have memory seats?

Even without memory seat, you still have memory power tilt wheel. The knob that people are referring to is the power tilt wheel knob. Not only does it adjust the wheel but it also rotates between "auto" and "manual" mode. The knob has been set to "auto". When set to auto the wheel will tilt away when you exit and will return to where it was when you get back in.

It is the knob in this picture below the stalk on the column.



I miss it in my 300. The exit mode in my car does both the seats and wheel and I hate it so it's turned off. I loved it with just the steering wheel.

You should have a 1, 2, and memory button on the driver window switch panel if you have this feature.

Hy there,
make sure that the knob is in AUTO mode. Its better to first save your seats setings (driving position) by pressing MEMORY (a little light comes out neear the button) on your driver window switch panel and then 1 or 2 buttons while the key is in the second position (or with the engine on).
Sorry for my english.

I have no such switch either. Do you have a 'seat memory' switch marked 1 and 2?
