resetting personalized key fobs

Hi all. I've done research on the resetting of the personalized key fobs, but the only links I get are for reprogramming them. This has not solved my issue, as both fobs unlock/lock/start vehicle fine.

I bought the 2005 used and it came with 2 key fobs. Now they must have been programmed differently cause when I unlock with remote I used right from my day one, its fine, the seat stays where I have programmed it.

NOW, when I use the second key (just to keep charging it), when I press unlock, it shifts the seat/mirrors/steering wheel to previous owner settings.

Is it possible to erase the memory of this key and start again?
I've tried setting seat to where I want the second key to start recognizing as its new default, but nope, it will not take it and each time I press unlock it moves my stuff all around.

Any wise words of wisdom on this topic?
Cheers

never mind, a 45 min drive re-set the key.
