Principles of Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Ford Flex. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: The Smart Junction Box (SJB) is also known as the Generic Electronic Module (GEM).

The Driver Seat Module (DSM) allows the driver to program a personalized seat position that can be recalled using the memory switch or a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (part of the key). In addition to the position of the driver seat, the DSM  also controls the position of the exterior mirrors and the adjustable pedals. Refer to SEATING .

The DSM  is part of the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN), over which it receives the selected transmission gear message. All other functions of the DSM  are hardwired.
