Circuit/System Description

The left and right heated seats are controlled by the memory seat module (MSM). When active, power is applied to the seat cushion and back heater elements through a common voltage supply circuit. Each individual heater element is grounded by the MSM through separate low side drive control circuits. The heater element control circuits are pulse width modulated to ground by the module in order to control the seat temperature by regulating the current flow through the heater elements. The module then monitors the current flow through the heating elements and the of rate change of the temperature sensors to verify correct heated seat operation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The MSM must be powered.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B2425 04, B2430 04

The module does not detect a temperature change for up to 210 seconds.

B2425 0A, B2430 0A

The module detects that the set point temperature has not been reached for up to 8.5 minutes.

B2425 0B, B2425 0E, B2430 0B, B2430 0E

By measuring the current and voltage output to the seat cushion heating element every 10 seconds, the memory seat module calculates that the heating element resistance is below the minimum resistance value of 2.0 ohms.

B2425 0C, B2425 0D, B2430 0C, B2430 0D

By measuring the current and voltage output to the seat cushion heating element every 10 seconds, the memory seat module calculates that the heating element resistance is above the maximum resistance value of 6.5 ohms.

B2425 1F, B2430 1F

The temperature sensor voltage is erratic or change suddenly.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The heated seat function for the affected seat will be disabled.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the seat back heater element.

Note: When measuring resistance, the resistance values are based on the seat being at room temperature of 20°C (68°F).

4. Test for 2 - 5 Ω between control circuit terminal A and control circuit terminal F.

⇒	If not within the specified range, test or replace the seat back heater element.

5. Connect the harness connector at the seat back heater element and disconnect the X1 harness connector at the MSM.
6. Test for 2 - 10.5 Ω between control circuit terminal 6 and control circuit terminal 11.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element.

7. If all circuits test normal, replace the MSM.

4. Test for 2 - 5 Ω between control circuit terminal A and control circuit terminal F.

⇒	If not within the specified range, test or replace the seat back heater element.

5. Connect the harness connector at the seat back heater element and disconnect the X1, X4 harness connectors at the MSM.
6. Test for 2 - 10.7 Ω between control circuit terminal 14 X1 and control circuit terminal 14 X4.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element.

7. If all circuits test normal, replace the MSM.
