Circuit Description
When the power seat switches are pressed, they send a 12-volt signal through the switch signal circuits to the memory seat module (MSM). The MSM then commands the driver seat and lumbar motors to move in response to the switch signals.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The MSM must be powered.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | If a seat switch circuit is active in one direction and the switch for the opposite direction is pressed, this DTC will set. |
| • | A short to voltage on a switch signal circuit. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | A motor output driven in response to a switch considered failed, is deactivated for both directions. |
| • | All memory recall commands are ignored. |
| • | The MSM will respond to any other switch signal that has not set a DTC. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The current DTC will clear and set the code to history, 3 seconds after the fault is no longer present and the power mode changes to OFF then back to ACC or RUN. |
| • | The history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | The scan tool may reference the Memory Seat Module (MSM) as the Driver Position Module. |
| • | If one of the switch signal circuits is shorted to battery, multiple codes will set. |

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Driver Position Module, Seat 1 Inputs seat switch parameters, while pressing the seat directional switches. The reading should change between Inactive and Active.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate seat or lumbar adjuster switch.
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool seat or lumbar switch parameters are Inactive.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the appropriate seat or lumbar adjuster switch.
| ⇒ | If not Inactive, test the signal circuit that displays Active for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the MSM. |
Component Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate seat or lumbar adjuster switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between each seat direction signal terminal and the switch B+ terminal with the switch in the open position.
- Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between each seat direction signal terminal and the B+ terminal with the switch in the closed position.
| ⇒ | If less than infinite resistance, replace the switch. |
| ⇒ | If greater than 1 ohm, replace the switch. |
