..how to work the Memory button on the drivers seat.

Ive had my Prelude JDM since OCT2002 and have never unlocked this secret.
Does anyone know how you work it??
(Not sure whether this was included on the USDM version)

Well, from my experience you just adjust your seat to where you want it and then push the memory lever down and that's it. Any time you flip the seat forward it goes back to where you had it in memory position.

We don't have one for the passenger side on the USDM version of the BB1
It's ok...I've got 2 Recaro SRD's anyway

Sound like one of Goraiko's passenger seat has been changed.

The JDM and USDM prelude only has one seat with memory button (drivers side respectivly); and the car only has one connection for one seat (hence only one working!)

Mine is a JDM and only has one on the drivers side.

Okay here's the way I got mine to work.... It's a pita though!
to reset the button...
Push the memory button and hold. Now pull the lever to get the seat to lean fwd. Now release the memory button then the lever that leans the seat. Now set the seat to where you like it. Press the memory button. Now it should be set. But.. if you lean the seat back more than where it is set it doesn't seem to work.
Give that a shot and let me know if that works.

On a slight side note. Sometimes my passenger side seat seems to jam in a certain position. Which can be a PITA. Anyone know how to get round this/fix this problem?

I'll try it Friday.
Got it stored away in a garage of mine so i can change my cradle and Front suspension. Also batt has gone dead because of the LED on my Clifford Concept Alarm (Red LED draws more current than the whole alarm system!)
