About Memory Seat Switch
The memory seat switch or switches enable the driver and passengers to alter the configuration of their vehicle seating to achieve the ideal position for their comfort and safety. Using either a series of buttons or dials on the side of the seat or a single, stand-alone unit, most car seats can be raised or lowered, moved closer or further from the steering wheel and pedals, and the backrest angle changed. The memory seat switch has the ability to store a number of pre-set positions to suit the differing size-range of all drivers and passengers who use the vehicle without the need for manual adjustment for each journey or driver.
Most memory switches allow the driver and passengers to alter the head-rest height, upper seat-back angle, main seat-back angle, seat height, seat length, seat depth, seat angle and lumbar support horizontal and vertical. Some memory seat switches can activate a massage effect in the seat which may alleviate stiffness or back pain on long journeys.
If the memory seat switch fails to operate this may be due to a blown fuse, poor terminal connections or faulty wiring.
BMW trivia
- Electric cars might be all the rage now, but BMW built their first one in 1972 and called it the BMW 1602e. It didn't quite make it to market though, thanks to the fact that it could only hold a twenty-minute charge.
- The very first BMW was named the 'Dixi'. They hadn't designed it (it was really an English Austin), and they dropped the name 'Dixi' very quickly, instead opting for the rather more grandiose BMW 3/15 DA-2. Rolls off the tongue!
- It might not be the accessory that everyone needs, but for BMW drivers in South Africa who were worried about carjackers, the 'Blaster' was a flamethrower that shot huge flames from either side of the car. Not currently available in the UK…
- The main headquarters for BMW in Munich is designed and shaped to look like car parts. There was a whole new 'four-cylinder' building added on in 1973, and there's definitely the look of an engine about the architecture.
- The BMW company was founded way back in 1916 and originally manufactured engines for planes. High demand for plane engines during WWI was good news for BMW, but they carried on making plane engines right up until 1945.
