The driver and passenger seat heating elements are controlled by a common high current relay internal to the heated seat module (HSM) and by individual low side element control circuits. The HSM connects the heater element supply voltage circuits for both seats to a common reference point. This reference point is biased to approximately 2.0 volts. Before the HSM will allow heated seat operation, it checks to see if the heating element supply voltage circuits and control circuits are shorted to ground or voltage. Once the HSM verifies that it is not closing to a shorted heating element, it allows for heated seat operation. The HSM will then continue to monitor the heating elements for a shorted circuit.
The HSM must be powered.
The HSM detects a short to voltage on the heater element supply voltage circuit or control circuit.
The HSM detects a short to ground for on the heater element supply voltage circuit or control circuit.
The heated seat function for both seats will be disabled.
• | The current DTC will clear and set a history code 3 seconds after the reference voltage returns to normal operating range and the ignition is cycled OFF then back to ACC or RUN. |
• | The history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred. |
