I can't find the one answer I got before but it said to try moving seat all the way up and then all the way back. I tried that with no luck.
Question remains, how much is labor and parts for a new sensor to detect seat location?
Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand your question...but do you have MEMORY seat buttons on the side of the driver's seat? If you do, there are usually two different operating modes...one you have to push and hold the seat memory button...the other you can simply press and release the memory button and the seat will move into the saved position.

Again, are you pressing the seat memory button to move the seat to a saved seat memory (when the engine is off)? Or are you referring to some other operating parameter?

Or have you saved a seat memory and its not going to the position you set?

Neither memory related function works...the seat will not retain a memory nor will the seat return to a previous memory. Because the car cannot locate the seat position. T he display says cannot locate the seat position. Clearly the sensor feed to the car is not working which leads to my question about labor and parts to replace the sensor, which of course may not be the problem. The problem could be elsewhere but this seems a logical first step. We'll, maybe after checking out part of the ecu. Or rebooting something
Or...

To be clear neither operating mode induces any response.
