Default irratic power seat in the up position

Hello there. I was wondering, I have a driver side power seat, and it works great leaning back, but comming back, I have to keep pushing the button because the seat only moves a small amount. What could be the problem?

As long as the cable isn't bad you will need to calibrate it.Lean it all the way back then all the way foward even if it only moves a little at a time.Be patient once you move it both ways all the way it should be fine.
If not then the cable might be slipping.

Hey thanks! that worked GREAT!!! I slowly moved the seat into the lean forward position, and then went all the way back, and now the seat will go in both directions while just holding the button... like it should work. Again, thanks!
