~Column tilt issue after 5SPD swap~
For all you auto to 5speed swap guys:
Ive done 3 swaps so far. The most recent one was done this past weekend on my brother's SC. Once the swap is complete I notice everything works fine except one thing, the steering column will not work correctly.
On a normal unswapped SC you can insert the key in the ignition and switch it over to the "ON position. Automatically, the steering column will come out and adjust to your desired position.
On a swapped SC you insert the key in the ignition then switch it over to the "ON" position and the column stops right away.
My question to you guys is how do you fix this problem? Does it have to do something with the loose big grey AUTO connector on that came off the auto tranny that is not used anymore? Anyone have a solution?

The column moves up and down, back and forth just fine. It just doesnt do it automatically between inserting the key in the ignition and switching over to the "ON" position.
Another thing that will not function anymore after the auto to 5speed swap on 3 different cars is the memory seat setting. Anyone have a solution for that also? Most people can live without these two functions but it just bugs me. I'd like to have everything working properly on my car.

I believe the seat memory and auto column adjustment only works when the car is in "park" for auto trans. I am thinking it is a wiring issue when you did the manual swap especially if you are running the auto ecu. As far as the wiring, does the car sit in "park" or "neutral" when the car is off?
