'99 XJ8 VDP: Remote seat memory - how to set
Hi. I've read all the documentation I can find about how to set the seat memory that is attached to a particular remote. Here's the problem - since I've owned the car, the driver-door memory pack doesn't work (someday I'll fix it). It appears that the only way to set the seat memory for the remote is with the door pack. However, I know for sure that it has set/reset before, so I feel like there is some series of steps I can take to get it to work. The position was fine, but then I did a bunch of work on the car over the last month or two, involving replacing the battery, doing a hard reset, and clearing codes. Now, the seat lays back way too much every time I click the unlock on the remote.
Anyone know how I can set it without the door-pack operational?

I believe if you set your seat to your preference (you may have to do it after key removal) and use the fob to lock the door, I believe it will return to that setting once you use the fob again. That is unless the controls having totally gone T up.

On another note, I have a burned out light bulb in my house. It's been burned out for awhile. Light bulbs are sold at most stores for about a dollar, but I've been busy raising kids. ;-)
I do appreciate your passion.

I was just looking for a quick fix until I have the time to replace the pack. I'm well aware of the availability of that part.
