Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition ON, with a scan tool clear the current and history DTC.
- Determine which motor set the DTC by operating the seat motors listed below one at a time in both directions. Check for the DTC to set between each motor test.
- Driver seat front vertical motor
- Driver seat rear vertical motor
- Driver seat horizontal motor
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the MSM.
- Test for infinite resistance between the appropriate control circuit terminals listed below and ground:
- Seat horizontal motor forward terminal N
- Seat horizontal motor rearward terminal S
- Seat front vertical motor upward terminal A
- Seat front vertical motor downward terminal M
- Seat rear vertical motor upward terminal R
- Seat rear vertical motor downward terminal P
- If not the specified value, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the appropriate seat motor.
- Connect the X3 harness connector at the MSM and disconnect the X1 harness connector at the seat adjuster motor assembly.
- Connect a test lamp between the appropriate control circuit terminals listed below:
- Seat horizontal motor terminal A and terminal B
- Seat front vertical motor terminal C and terminal D
- Seat rear vertical motor terminal E and terminal F
- Ignition ON, command the appropriate seat motor in the Forward and Rearward or Up and Down directions with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON when commanding the motor in the forward and rearward or up and down states.
- If the test lamp remains OFF during either of the commands, test the control circuits for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the MSM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the seat adjuster motor assembly.
