When the kind dealer changed the batteries in the remote key he must have swapped the PCB on the insides cause when I use remote key 2 the car says Key 1 and then when I insert the key it says Key 2

I unlock the car, it thinks I am using Key 1, and sets the seat and mirrors, then I put in key 2 into the ignition.

So if you put the other key in, does the memory change on the seat buttons?

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Outcome without a verified action link
Not sure I just followed the manual and it worked for me.
Stupid question time since I cannot figure it out.
I have electric seats and wing mirrors, great.
The seats and mirrors are linked to the key, i.e. use the key and all settings get set, great.
I can't figure out how to get the key and seat to remember my settings ! Bad !
I put the ignition on, hand brake on, push and hold the memory button, press and hold 1 .... but it doesn't work, every time I use the key to lock and unlock the car the seat and wing mirror changes
What am I doing wrong?
Push memory button and number 2 works to program my settings to 2... but not the key.
You will need these things:
The manual
Identify the keys from the screen
Lots of patience
The manual
& as Airhead says the 10 year old from down the road
OR
start the car,
get all your settings (seat, mirrors, sterring wheel) correct
hold the "Set" button in, then
press or hold in the door button with the key symbol on it until you hear a beep then it should be set
OR
go to the nearest Porsche Centre & they will do it for you in about 20 seconds
keep pressing all the buttons until you get it right
Good luck, by the way mine works.
I can get it to work for button 2 and button 3, but not the key !
I am going to try erasing all the memory and do it again, maybe that'll work.
I never had this problem in the Elise !!!
of course I didn't have any electrical stuff in the Elise... no carpet either.....
I worked out the problem !
When the kind dealer changed the batteries in the remote key he must have swapped the PCB on the insides cause when I use remote key 2 the car says Key 1 and then when I insert the key it says Key 2
i.e. the transmitter for Key 1 is in Key 2
No wonder the car was confused, i.e. I unlock the car, it thinks I am using Key 1, and sets the seat and mirrors, then I put in key 2 into the ignition.
