Lexus NX: Power Seat does not Return to Memorized Position

DESCRIPTION

When either the M1, M2 or M3 switch is pressed, the outer mirror control ECU assembly (for Driver Side) sends a switch signal to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication. Then, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) sends a recall request signal to the front power seat switch LH. The front power seat switch LH operates each motor to achieve each memorized position value.
