Three reversible motors operate the power seat. Separate motors raise the front and rear height of the seat. The front and the rear height can be adjusted independently of each other. When the entire seat adjuster switch is pushed in the middle to the up or down position, both motors operate to move the front and rear of the seat at the same time.
The driver seat adjuster switch operates the horizontal adjuster motor. Battery voltage is applied through the switch contacts and circuit 285 to the forward/back adjuster motor when the switch is held in the forward position. The motor is grounded through circuit 284. The seat adjuster switch is grounded to G301.
Circuit 284 receives battery voltage and circuit 285 is grounded when the switch is held in the BACK position. The reversed polarity causes the motor to run in the opposite direction and drive the seat backward.
The front or rear vertical adjuster motors work in a similar way when the front height or rear height switch is operated.
The entire seat is raised if the entire seat adjuster switch is held in the UP position. This applies battery voltage through the circuit 282 and circuit 286 to the rear vertical and front vertical adjuster motor. The motors are grounded through circuit 283 and circuit 287. The seat adjuster switch is grounded to G301. Both motors operate in order to drive the entire seat up or down.
Each motor contains a solid state self-resetting circuit breaker in order to protect it from overload. The electronic circuit breaker (ECB) resistance increases if a motor is overloaded. The resistance returns to normal after the voltage is removed from the motor terminals.
