How the heck does this button work?

The one on the left that says cancel/auto. I have this, and since I've bought the car I haven't used it. Not really sure I know how to, and haven't had a chance to look at the manual. Is it a lock feature for the memory seats or something?




BTW, I borrowed this pic from a car on ebay. Credit to whom it's due.

Yeah if you have it on auto and you are short (like my wife) It slides back when you turn off the car so you can get out easier. If you have it on cancel it doesn't. It is my personal opinion that this is what causes the seat motors in our cars to go out. Since i have replaced one already.

on my 6spd...even on the auto position...it doesn't slide the seat when the key is turned off...iirc i think this is only good for folks with automatics....

if you put it on cancel...it won't allow you to use memory seats at all...

That's the Auto Seat Positioner... according to the manual, it only works for ATs; when you put it in P. Short answer, no, since I have a 6-speed.

The memory function is a different thing and is supposed to work for 6-speeds... all it is is you can program your seat position into memory and if ya ever have to change the position, you can hit the button and it'll revert to what you set in the memory. I did it a long time ago and I'm pretty sure it worked.

Btw, you gays need to get one of these:

Well, I saw what ya posted... I thought ya meant both the Auto Seat Positioner and the memory seats only work with ATs... the mem seats still work with the 6-speeds, apparently....

Hit me up on IM...

Thanks mang, I'm still going back and forth with GEICO for my claim. Once I get a check, I can put her in the shop for body work and I'll hand the lip over to them also. It sucks cause I got it from you forever ago, and it's still tucked away safely in the garage. You'll be the first I let know once I get it on.
