The SET button for the memory seat settings isn’t working. No beep when I hold it down. 

 

I noticed this after I installed a new drivers side mirror and went to reset them with the new mirror in place.

 

The memory buttons are working but I can’t reset them.

I have checked that the memory settings are on in the settings on the dash and I have already tried disconnecting and reconnecting the battery and the reset did nothing. 

 

What else can I try?

Harness on the door panel? Do you think something could have come unplugged when I had the door panel popped off to replace the mirror? I didn’t take the entire panel off. Just enough to get the mirror off and reach down to disconnect the power assembly and reconnect it on the new one.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but it doesn't give a beep for step one, which is press and release the 'set' button.

 

Beep (should) happen in next step which is holding the '1'. '2' or 'exit' ...whichever is being changed. 

 

 

Are you pressing the 'set' button first?

Pushing the set button tells it you want to change the programming, rather than have it move to the memorized location. 

The 'beep' after holding the second button tells you the current locations have be saved.

This is the operation in my wife's Cadillac, too, which I assume is the same as the trucks.  Adjust everything, press 'Set' then press and hold the location you want it saved to until it beeps.

Did you ever figure this out?  The set button on my Chevy isn’t working. The memory buttons work fine, but trying to save a new adjustment and it won’t let me. Yes, car is on. Yes, memory setting in the menu is on. Only the set button is broken. No beep at all even when pressed and held for several seconds

      I am sure that was quite the pass experience and not a great place to experience during the winter when the conditions are not good. I've seen video of that pass and also more detailed information and pictures about the wrecks at that one hair pin turn where tractor trailers have flown right off the cliff and I am sure from all the warning signs that you know the exact curve that was !. After all there is a reason why a song was made about Wolf Creek Pass !. By the way and I didn't realize this either when I bought my truck as its nothing I even thought of that would be programmed into the cruise control and this occurs in either the basic or the more advanced cruise that controls your distance behind a vehicle and that is the brakes going down a hill are being applied as soon as the vehicle goes a certain speed over the set cruise speed. While it certainly does force downshifts in the transmission as you found out with cruise on while going down hill, its also dragging the brakes as needed to keep the speed controlled to what the cruise was set to. For me, I find that unsettling simply because I have no concept then as to how MUCH brake input is being used a and just how hot are those brakes getting and the wear factor as well. I can see that system getting a person into trouble on long mountain grades while pulling a trailer as it would not only be standing on the brakes of the pickup without any driver input, it would also be automatically applying the trailer brakes and it could cause a run away unit by overheating the brakes. Its one thing on a shorter hill and if the driver allows it to do its thing but on a long mountain grade is where things could get so out of hand. As someone a while back on this forum said, they had someone following them at night I believe on a down grade and had the cruise set and the person behind them could see the brake lights being energized all the way down the hill. I figured when I saw your comment that you didn't know and would have no way of knowing that your truck was applying the brakes and that you would and rightfully so assume you only used the brakes when you pressed on the pedal to slow down more than the cruise set speed for the slower sharp curves. So its good knowledge to know this about the newer GM trucks, certainly when doing any descending on long mountain grades. In the future try kicking off the cruise and use the the manual mode on a pass to see what that is like as I know myself when I first experienced it I thought no way can this engine be holding me back this well and tried the same hill in manual mode and sure enough the engine was revving way up and still could not hold the trucks speed down like it could in cruise mode.    Fuel mileage, that is where a really low sleek type of car can do better at higher speeds, certainly it starts sucking fuel too but a tall pickup is pushing massive amounts of air and also allowing a lot more air under it and the tow mirrors as in elephant ears pushing through the wind  as well. Driving like grandpa is about as good as one can do when driving one of these if trying to get the best fuel economy they can. I bet these trucks would get the best mileage they can if driven on a freeway in Florida if not busy traffic at a sedate speed and that sea level elevation without hills, vastly different then Colorado !.
