Default memory seat INOP...

hey everyone,
the battery in my ES died last week, so i replaced it with a new toyota truestart battery...following this routine event, my memory seats are completely inoperative.
my question is, what could have possibly gone wrong? is there a fuse and ecu or something for the memory seat?
Not quite sure what happened or where to start my investigation, so any help is great.

thats all i know that might be of help to the newer ES

Just had this problem the other day....dealer tech said to take seat all the way forward, then all the way back, tilt back all the way down, and all the way up again, seat height all the way up, and all the way down...this re-set the memory function...I sat back in the saddle...got 'er all adjusted....hit set 1....all better....it was because the battery had been disconnected.

When I first bought my ES, I was told the memory seats function did not work. Turns out he just didn't know how to program it. Just hold down the '1' OR '2' and then the 'set' button at the same time.. it will program to the current seat position..
