Circuit Description

The memory mirror module (MMM) receives inputs from the Memory Set switch. When the Memory Set switch is operated, the switch grounds and the MMM recognizes the input. The MMM performs the action requested and sends a class 2 message to the memory seat module (MSM). The MSM then performs the action requested.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The MMM sets the appropriate DTC any time the MMM detects a switch failure.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The motor outputs being driven in response to the suspect switch are deactivated.
    • The MMM continues responding to valid inputs from the other positioning switches.
    • All of the memory recall commands are ignored.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The MMM does not detect the switch failure during the last monitoring cycle.
    • A history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present.
    • Use the On-Board Clearing DTCs feature.
    • Use a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

This diagnostic determines if the switch is stuck or if the input wiring to the memory mirror module (MMM) has a short to ground. If CKT 614 (ORN) has a short to ground, the DTC will set again. If the switch is stuck, the DTC will not set again with the memory function switch disconnected.

  1. Perform the Power Door Systems Diagnostic System Check

  2. This step determines if the malfunction is in CKT 614 (ORN) or in the memory function switch.
