Question Mirrors moving at startup

I have a Lariat SCREW w/memory seats (and all). The memory is linked to my fob.
I am the only one driving the truck.
I noticed the other day that when I start the truck, the left side mirror moved.
I hit my saved position (button 1) and the mirror adjusts again.
I tried re-setting my button 1.
What is going on? Why is the mirror moving out of position when I start the truck.

Sometimes I fold the mirrors in but not all the time. I don't think that is related.

I tried moving the mirror to all extreme positions just to make sure it wasn't stuck.
(My old EDGE's seat would get stuck sometimes and I would have to move it all the way forward and up. From there, the memory started working again)

it might have something to do with the key. Try the other one, it might be programmed as an admin key and those are the settings associated with that particular key.

Curious if you figured out what was happening.
I am experiencing the same thing.
I have all 3 memory setting identical and reprogrammed both keys to memory 1 and 2 respectively.
After I start my truck the left mirror moves up and away a little. If i press a memory button, it goes where I expect it.

Default Key Fob

I seen on a video today, that you can set the mirrors, seat, and the steering wheel to the key fob. Once you get everything where you want it, then press and hold the memory number you want associated with those settings. then press and hold again for a second time. After the 2nd tone, press the lock button on the remote. the settings are then saved to that remote. hope this helps.

My Lariat mirror was moving out and up on occasion. I turned off the easy entry (that raises the wheel and moves back the seat) and it has not done it since.

Mine does the same, on occasion, trying to turn a 360. Then hits a stop and clicks for a few seconds. Usually it goes back to correct position. Fob not programmed, memory button not pressed, easy entry disabled.

Having this same issue. I've tried setting the memory setting to seat button 1 and 2, turning on and off the easy entry, no joy so far.
