Default Memory seat stopped working

I've searched through the forums for help and I do know the proper procedure for setting the seats:

Turn the key to the "On" position, adjust the seat to your needs, press and HOLD the Set button and at the same time press and hold either the 1 or 2 button until your hear a confirmation tone. Repeat same steps for the remaining choice, 1 or 2.

My seat memory used to always work, now, I can still set the seat manually, however the buttons don't work. In fact, the "BEEP" never beeps either. I would like to do some troubleshooting but I don't have the equivalent to the helmes or technician's book.

It's a 99.5/2000 GS300 silver on black. I'm thinking of start by taking the door apart and checking that the buttons are still wired up to something, i just don't wanna damage the car...

ALSO, steering wheel up/down stopped working, I saw the DIY fix for this online, just wondering if it could be related to the memory issue and where the fuse controlling this would be located?

Thanks!!

check your fuses.. if your tilt wheel stopped working also it could be fuse related.. good luck

Mine didn't work when I bought my '99 GS400 and when I replaced the door actuator (group buy right now) it fixed the memory seats, homelink, and my key fob door locks.
