HEATED SEATS
Heated seats consists of 4 heated seats, 2 in front and 2 in rear. Each heated seat consists of these components: heated seat module, heated seat switch, seat back heating and seat cushion heating elements. Rear Integration Module (RIM), Driver's Door Module (DDM), Left Rear Door Module (LRDM) and Right Rear Door Module (RRDM) are involved in operation of heated seats. System is functional only with ignition switch turned to RUN position.
Power & Grounds
Battery voltage is supplied to front and rear heated seat module through ignition 3 voltage circuit and IGN 3 fuse, located in rear fuse block. This voltage is used to power up these modules: heated seat module, RIM, DDM, LRDM or RRDM. Battery voltage is also supplied at all times to all 4 heated seat modules from these fuses, located in rear fuse block
- HTDST LF fuse.
- HTDST RF fuse.
- HTDST LR fuse.
- HTDST RR fuse.
This battery voltage is used by modules to apply voltage to seat heating elements. Left and right front heated seat modules are grounded through a module ground circuit. Left and right rear heated seat modules are grounded through a module ground circuit. Left and right front heated seat switches are grounded through switch ground circuit. Left and right rear heated seat switches are grounded through switch ground circuit, provided by an associated door module.
Temperature Regulation
Heated seat system is designed in order to warm seat cushion and seat back to approximately 107.6°F (42°C) when in high position, and 98.6°F (37°C) when in low position. Heated seat module monitors seat temperature through temperature sensor signal circuit and temperature sensor (thermistor) which is located in seat cushion. Temperature sensor is a variable resistor, it's resistance changes as temperature of seat changes. When temperature sensor resistance indicates to heated seat module that seat has reached desired temperature, module opens ground path of seat heating elements through heated seat element control circuit. Module will then cycle element control circuit open and closed in order maintain desired temperature.
Front Heated Seat Operation
When heated seat switch is first pressed, heated seat high/low signal circuit of heated seat module is momentarily grounded through HI/LO switch contacts indicating a high heat command. In response to this signal, heated seat module applies battery voltage to seat cushion/back heating elements setting temperature level to high heat. When heated seat switch is pressed a second time, heated seat high/low signal circuit of heated seat module is again momentarily grounded through HI/LO switch contacts indicating a low heat command. In response to this second signal, heated seat module then sets temperature level to low heat. When heated seat switch is pressed a third time, heated seat high/low signal circuit of heated seat module is again momentarily grounded through HI/LO switch contacts indicating a heat off command. In response to this signal, heated seat module removes battery voltage from seat heating elements.
Front Heated Seat Switch Indicators
When heated seat is off and front heated seat switch is pressed once, heated seat temperature is set to high heat. Heated seat module applies 5 volts through heated seat high temperature indicator control circuit to heated seat switch, illuminating high temperature indicator. When switch is pressed a second time, heated seat temperature is set to low heat. Heated seat module applies 5 volts through heated seat low temperature indicator control circuit to heated seat switch, illuminating low temperature indicator. After switch is pressed a third time, heated seat is turned off, and front heated seat module removes voltage from low temperature indicator.
Rear Heated Seat Operation
When heated seat switch is first pressed, heated seat switch signal circuit of rear door module is momentarily grounded through switch contacts indicating a high heat command. Rear door module then sends a simple buss interface message to Driver's Door Module (DDM) indicating high heat command. DDM then sends out a class 2 message to Rear Integration Module (RIM) indicating high heat command. RIM momentarily sends a 35 millisecond one shot pulse signal that is pulled low through heated seat switch signal circuit of rear heated seat module, indicating high heat command. In response to this signal, heated seat module will then apply battery voltage to seat cushion/back heating elements setting temperature level to high heat.
When switch is pressed a second time, heated seat switch signal circuit of rear door module is again momentarily grounded indicating a low heat command. Rear door module then sends out a simple buss interface message to DDM indicating low heat command. DDM then sends out a class 2 message to RIM indicating low heat command. RIM again momentarily sends a 35 millisecond one shot pulse signal that is pulled low through heated seat switch signal circuit of heated seat module, indicating low heat command. In response to this signal, heated seat module then sets temperature level to low heat.
After switch is pressed a third time, heated seat switch signal circuit of rear door module is again momentarily grounded, indicating a heat off command. Rear door module then sends out a simple buss interface message to DDM indicating heat off command. DDM then sends out a class 2 message to RIM indicating heat off command. RIM again momentarily sends a 35 millisecond one shot pulse signal that is pulled low through heated seat switch signal circuit of heated seat module, indicating heat off command. In response to this signal, heated seat module then removes battery voltage from seat heating elements turning off heated seats.
Rear Heated Seat Switch Indicators
When heated seat is off and rear heated seat switch is pressed once, heated seat temperature is set to high heat. Rear door module applies battery voltage through heated seat high temperature indicator control circuit to heated seat switch, illuminating high temperature indicator. When pressed a second time, heated seat temperature is set to low heat. Rear door module applies battery voltage through heated seat low temperature indicator control circuit to heated seat switch, illuminating low temperature indicator. After switch is pressed a third time, heated seat is turned off, and rear door module removes battery voltage from low temperature indicator.
Load Management
There are 3 levels of load management that are controlled by Dash Integration Module (DIM). DIM sends status of load management to Rear Integration Module (RIM) through a class 2 message. An ON/OFF status of heated seats is reported to RIM through a status signal circuit of each heated seat module. RIM inhibits heated seat function for heated seats through heated seat module inhibit signal circuit according to level of load management. During load shed level 00, RIM leaves heated seat inhibit signal circuit open so that each heated seat module is in the normal mode of operation. During load shed level 01, RIM will cycle signal from high to low every 0.25 seconds to control heat level to low setting. During load shed level 02, RIM will supply a constant ground through heated seat module inhibit signal circuit to heated seat modules. In response to this signal, heated seat module then removes battery voltage from seat heating elements. Instrument cluster will display a BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE message.
LUMBAR SUPPORT WITH AUTO CONTOUR CONTROL
Driver's and passenger's adaptive seat each consists of these components: lumbar switch, adaptive lumbar module, pump motor, seat cushion air bladder, seat back air bladder, IGN 3 RR 10-amp fuse and MEM T&T 10-amp fuse. This is a power inflate/deflate pneumatic system used for controlling seat comfort by inflating or deflating an air cell within seat cushion or seat back. An adaptive seat system will operative on when ignition switch is in RUN position.
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to driver's and passenger's adaptive lumbar modules through battery voltage circuit and MEM T&T fuse, located in rear fuse block. Battery voltage is also supplied to adaptive lumbar modules through ignition 3 voltage circuit and IGN 3 fuse, located in rear fuse block. Both driver's and passenger's adaptive lumbar modules are grounded through module ground circuit. Battery voltage is supplied to lumbar switch through battery voltage circuit and adaptive lumbar module.
Manual Lumbar Control
Lumbar support in seat back may be adjusted manually. When lumbar forward switch is operated to move lumbar support forward and increase amount of lumbar support, battery voltage is applied through switch contacts and lumbar forward signal circuit to adaptive lumbar module. In response to this signal, adaptive lumbar module applies battery voltage to lumbar pump motor. Motor runs to inflate lumbar bladder in seat back until switch is released. When lumbar rearward switch is operated to move lumbar rearward and decrease amount of lumbar support, battery voltage is applied through switch contacts and lumbar rearward signal circuit to module. In response to this signal, module releases air from lumbar support bladder until switch is released.
Adaptive Control
At beginning of 2001 model year production, driver's and passenger's adaptive seat feature automatically activates with ignition switch turned to RUN position. During production, feature was changed from automatic activation to manual activation. To manually activate adaptive seat feature, momentarily press lumbar switch where it is marked AUTO/ON. When AUTO/ON switch is pressed, battery voltage is applied through switch contacts and adaptive seat switch auto/on signal circuit to adaptive lumbar module. In response to this signal, module will inflate seat bladders as described in manual control, take a reading, then automatically adjust comfort level to occupant by releasing air from bladders or adding air to bladders when needed. Adaptive lumbar module will check position of occupant every 4 minutes. If occupant has moved, adaptive lumbar module will then automatically adjust amount of air to new position of occupant. If adaptive function is not desired, driver's or passenger's must manually deactivate or turn off system. System is turned off by pressing lumbar switch down to off position. Battery voltage is then applied through switch contacts and adaptive seat off switch signal circuit to module. In response to this signal, adaptive lumbar module will release all air from bladders.
LUMBAR SUPPORT WITH MEMORY
Driver's seat lumbar support system consists of these components: left lumbar switch, Memory Seat Module (MSM), lumbar horizontal and vertical motors, lumbar horizontal and vertical position sensors and MEM T&T 10-amp fuse.
Lumbar Switch
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to left lumbar switch from MEM T&T fuse, located in rear fuse block. When left lumbar switch is pressed, a 12 volt signal is sent to Memory Seat Module (MSM). MSM commands lumbar motors to move in response to switch signals.
Motors
Lumbar support system consists of 2 motors (vertical and horizontal) that operate independently of each other. Each motor contains a electronic circuit breaker which will reset only after voltage has been removed from motor. Lumbar horizontal motor moves lumbar support in forward and rearward directions, and lumbar vertical motor moves lumbar support in up and down directions. Memory Seat Module (MSM) provides each motor with a soft stop that will actually stop motor just before its physical end-of-travel. This decreases stress on each motor. If a motor reaches end-of-travel due a soft stop and switch is released and pressed again, lumbar support will move short distance farther to physical travel limit.
Horizontal
When lumbar switch is operated to move lumbar support forward, battery voltage is applied through switch contacts and left lumbar forward switch signal circuit to Memory Seat Module (MSM). In response to this signal, MSM applies battery voltage through lumbar motor forward control circuit and ground through lumbar motor rearward control circuit to horizontal motor. Motor runs to drive lumbar support forward toward occupant's back until switch is released. Moving lumbar support rearward works similarly to moving lumbar support forward, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction. MSM also controls lumbar horizontal motor during memory recall functions.
Vertical
When lumbar switch is operated to move lumbar support up, battery voltage is applied through switch contacts and left lumbar up switch signal circuit to Memory Seat Module (MSM). In response to this signal, MSM applies battery voltage through lumbar motor up control circuit and ground through lumbar motor down control circuit to vertical motor. Motor runs to drive lumbar support up until switch is released. Moving lumbar support down works similarly to moving lumbar support up, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction. MSM also controls lumbar vertical motor during memory recall functions.
Position Sensors
Lumbar position sensors are potentiometers which are attached directly to each lumbar motor. Memory Seat Module (MSM) supplies a 5-volt reference voltage through a 5-volt reference circuit and ground through a low reference circuit to each lumbar position sensor. When lumbar motor rotates, resistance of potentiometer varies, changing feedback voltage of position sensor signal circuit. This voltage varies from 0.25-4.75 volts. MSM monitors this voltage signal to determine a lumbar position. When a memory set command is received, MSM records lumbar position by storing feedback voltage from each position sensor. When a memory recall command is received, MSM moves motors until position sensor feedback voltages equals feedback voltages stored in memory. Lumbar support is not involved in easy exit function.
LUMBAR SUPPORT WITHOUT MEMORY
Driver's and passenger's seat lumbar support consists of these components: lumbar switch, lumbar horizontal and vertical motors, PWR SEAT 30-amp circuit breaker and RR LUM/ANT 20-amp fuse.
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to driver's and passenger's seat lumbar switches from PWR SEAT circuit breaker, located in rear fuse block. Battery voltage is supplied at all times to left rear and right rear passenger's lumbar switches from RR LUM/ANT fuse, located in rear fuse block. All 4 lumbar switches are grounded through switch ground circuits. Lumbar switches provide both power and ground to selected lumbar motors.
Lumbar support system consists of 2 lumbar motors (horizontal and vertical) that operate independently of each other. Each motor contains an electronic circuit breaker that will reset only after voltage has been removed from motor. Lumbar horizontal motor moves lumbar support forward and rearward and lumbar vertical motor moves lumbar support up and down.
When lumbar switch is operated to move lumbar support rearward, battery voltage is applied through lumbar rearward switch contacts and lumbar motor rearward control circuit to lumbar horizontal motor. Motor is grounded through lumbar forward switch contacts and lumbar motor forward control circuit to horizontal motor. Motor runs to drive lumbar support rearward away from occupant's back until switch is released. Moving lumbar support forward works similarly to moving lumbar support rearward, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
When lumbar switch is operated to move lumbar support up, battery voltage is applied through lumbar up switch contacts and lumbar motor up control circuit to lumbar vertical motor. Motor is grounded through lumbar down switch contacts and lumbar motor down control circuit to vertical motor. Motor runs to drive lumbar support up until switch is released. Moving lumbar support down works similarly to moving lumbar support up, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
MEMORY SEATS
Memory seat system consists of these components: Memory Seat Module (MSM), seat horizontal motor, seat front and rear vertical motors, seat recline motor, headrest motor, lumbar horizontal and vertical motors, seat horizontal position sensor, seat front and rear vertical position sensors, seat recline position sensor, headrest position sensor, lumbar horizontal and vertical position sensors, power seat switch, seat lumbar switch memory function switch, PWR SEAT 30-amp circuit breaker and MEM T&T 10-amp fuse.
Personalization Option
Memory Seat Module (MSM) cannot perform memory recall functions unless personalization option is activated. Personalization option is located in Dash Integration Module (DIM). DIM reports personalization option setting to MSM, as well as other receiving modules, through a class 2 message each time ignition switch is cycled to RUN position. MSM will then store personalization option setting and examine it before making a memory seat adjustment. Personalization option setting stored within MSM will not change until personalization option setting in DIM is changed and ignition switch is cycled to RUN position.
Power Seat Switches
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to seat adjuster switch from MEM T&T fuse, located in rear fuse block. When power seat switches are pressed a 12 volt signal is sent to Memory Seat Module (MSM). MSM commands selected seat motor to move in response to switch inputs.
Memory Seat Module Power & Grounds
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to Memory Seat Module (MSM) from PWR SEAT 30-amp circuit breaker, located in rear fuse block. This voltage is used to power up MSM and also to apply power to seat motors when commanded. MSM is grounded through module ground circuit.
Seat Motors
Memory Seat Module (MSM) controls movement of each seat directional motors, and 2 lumbar motors. All motors operate independently of each other. Each motor contains an electronic circuit breaker, which will reset only after voltage has been removed from motor.
There are 4 motors that move position of seat. These are seat horizontal motor, front and rear vertical motor, and recline motor. Horizontal motor moves entire seat forward and rearward. Both vertical motors can run simultaneously when seat switch is operated in order to move entire seat up and down. Or can be selected independently to vertically tilt front or rear of seat up and down. Recline motor moves angle of seat back forward or rearward.
All seat motors are reversible. For example, when left seat switch is pressed to move entire seat forward, battery voltage is applied through power seat horizontal forward switch signal circuit to MSM. In response to this signal, MSM applies battery voltage through driver's seat horizontal motor forward control circuit, and ground through driver's seat horizontal motor rearward control circuit to motor. Motor runs in order to drive entire seat forward. Moving entire seat rearward works similarly to moving entire seat forward, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits, causing motor to run in opposite direction. All of seat motors are powered this way.
MSM provides each seat motor with a soft stop that will actually stop motor just before physical end-of-travel. This decreases stress on each motor. If a motor reaches end-of-travel due a soft stop and left seat switch is released and then activated again, seat will move a short distance farther to physical travel limit.
Seat position sensors are potentiometers which are either attached directly to a motors transmission cable or are an internal part of motor. MSM supplies a 5-volt reference voltage through a 5-volt reference circuit and ground through a sensor low reference circuit to respective seat position sensors. When motor or cable rotates, resistance of potentiometer varies changing feedback voltage of position sensor signal circuit. Voltage varies from 0.25-4.75 volts. MSM monitors this voltage signal to determine position of seat. When a memory set command is received, MSM records seat position by storing feedback voltage from each position sensor. When a memory recall command is received, MSM moves motors until position sensor feedback voltages equals feedback voltages stored in memory. For an easy exit function, only seat position sensor feedback voltages are recorded and only seat motors are controlled. Lumbar support is not involved in easy exit function.
Memory Functions
Driver's Door Switch Assembly (DDSA) receives signals from memory function switch. DDSA then sends a message through a simple buss interface to Driver's Door Module (DDM) indicating that a memory function signal has been received. DDM then sends a message to Memory Seat Module (MSM) through class 2 serial data line. Current seat position may be recorded for 2 different drivers. To record a position, adjust driver's seat (including lumbar adjustments) and both outside mirrors to a comfortable position, then press MEMORY SET button. Within 5 seconds, press button 1 (for driver 1). A second mirror and seating position may be programmed by repeating procedure and pressing button 2 (for driver 2). When MSM receives a memory set message, MSM records feedback voltages from position sensors for appropriate driver. Two personalized exit positions can be set by first recalling driver position 1 or 2, positioning steering wheel and seat (except lumbar and headrest) in desired exit positions and then pressing MEMORY SET button, and within 5 seconds, pressing EXIT button. When MSM receives a set easy exit message, MSM records feedback voltages from 3 seat position sensors and recline position sensor for appropriate driver.
When No. 1 or 2 button is pressed, a single chime is sounded through radio to acknowledge signal and MSM receives memory recall message. MSM then applies battery voltage to motors until position sensor feedback voltages equal feedback voltages stored in memory for appropriate driver. When EXIT button is pressed, a single chime is sounded to acknowledge signal and MSM receives an easy exit message. MSM then applies battery voltage to seat motors until position sensor feedback voltages equal feedback voltages stored in memory for appropriate driver. Memory recall will not work if transmission is out of Neutral or Park.
Recall Personalization
When a remote transmitter is used in order to unlock vehicle doors, Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) module communicates an unlock command and which driver performed command to Memory Seat Module (MSM) through a class 2 message. There are 2 personalized recall options when MSM receives an unlock message
- Recall immediately upon receipt of RKE message.
- Do not recall upon receipt of RKE message. Recall functions are only performed with memory buttons.
Memory Inhibit/Enable
Memory Seat Module (MSM) receives ignition switch signal and gear selector position through class 2 messages. When ignition switch is in OFF position, memory record, memory recall, personalization recall, and exit recall functions are all allowed. When ignition switch is in RUN position and gear selector is in Park, only recall personalization function is deactivated and all other memory functions are allowed. When ignition switch is in RUN position and gear selector is out of Park, only memory record is allowed, all other memory seat functions are not allowed.
Driver's and passenger's power seat system each consist of these components: seat adjuster switch, seat horizontal motor, seat front and rear vertical motor, seat recline motor, headrest motor and PWR SEAT 30-amp circuit breaker. Driver's and passenger's power seat systems operate independently of each other. Each motor contains an electronic circuit breaker, that will reset only after voltage has been removed from motor. Battery voltage is supplied at all times to each seat switch from PWR SEAT circuit breaker, located in rear fuse block.
When seat adjuster switch is operated to move entire seat forward, battery voltage is applied through entire seat forward switch contacts and entire seat forward control circuit to horizontal motor. Motor is grounded through entire seat rearward switch contacts and entire seat rearward control circuit to motor. Motor runs in order to drive entire seat forward until switch is released. Moving entire seat rearward works similarly to moving entire seat forward, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
Front Vertical
When seat adjuster switch is operated to tilt front seat up, battery voltage is applied through front vertical up switch contacts and front vertical up control circuit to front vertical motor. Motor is grounded through front vertical down switch contacts and front vertical down control circuit to motor. Motor runs in order to drive front seat up until switch is released. Tilting front of seat down works similarly to tilting front seat up, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
Rear Vertical
When seat adjuster switch is operated to tilt rear of seat up, battery voltage is applied through rear vertical up switch contacts and rear vertical up control circuit to rear vertical motor. Motor is grounded through rear vertical down switch contacts and rear vertical down control circuit to motor. Motor runs in order to drive the rear of seat up until switch is released. Tilting rear of seat down works similarly to tilting rear of seat up, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
Entire Seat Up Or Down
When seat adjuster switch is operated in order to move entire seat to up position, battery voltage is applied through both front vertical up and rear vertical up switch contacts, through front and rear vertical up control circuits to both vertical motors. Motors are grounded through front and rear vertical down switch contacts and front and rear vertical down control circuits to motors. Both motors run in order to drive entire seat up until switch is released. Moving entire seat down works similarly to moving entire seat up, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.
Recline
When seat adjuster switch is operated to move seat back forward, battery voltage is applied through recline forward switch contacts and recline forward control circuit to motor. Motor is grounded through recline rearward switch contacts and recline rearward control circuit to motor. Motor runs in order to move seat back forward until switch is released. Moving seat back rearward works similarly to moving seat back forward, except battery voltage and ground are applied on opposite circuits causing motor to run in opposite direction.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS
Description
When left seat switch is pressed, a 12 volt signal is sent to Memory Seat Module (MSM). MSM commands driver's seat to move in response to switch inputs. If a seat switch circuit continues to be active for 30 seconds after a motor controlled by switch reaches end of travel, switch will be considered shorted. If a position sensor DTC is current, and associated switch is active for 30 continuous seconds, switch will be considered shorted. MSM will store DTC. When DTC is stored, motor output driven in response to a switch considered failed, is deactivated for both directions, memory recall commands are ignored, and MSM will respond to any other switch input that has not stored a DTC. DTC automatically clears when switch circuit for storing DTC is no longer active.
Code Enable Criteria
The following must occur for DTC to run
- Memory Seat Module (MSM) must have power, and cannot have B1327 or B1328 stored.
Testing

A position sensor that stores this DTC is either attached to seat directional motor drive cable or directly to motor it monitors. A 5-volt reference and ground is received from Memory Seat Module (MSM). A sensor sends a voltage signal that varies with movement of seat through signal circuit to MSM. Based on this voltage signal, MSM determines position of seat. If MSM sees an analog input from this sensor as either less than 0.25 volts or 4.75 volts or more, sensor will be considered out of range, and MSM will store DTC. When DTC is stored, MSM disables memory recall and easy exit/entry action commands of motor monitored by sensor. Motor will respond to manual positioning commands. MSM will clear DTC as an active malfunction when analog input from this sensor is 0.25-4.75 volts during one cycle of checking MSM inputs.

Diagnostic Aids
All position sensors use common ground and 5-volt reference circuits. If a 5-volt reference circuit is short to ground or voltage, multiple codes will store. If a sensor ground circuit is open, multiple codes will store.
When left seat switch is pressed, a 12 volt signal is sent to Memory Seat Module (MSM). MSM commands driver's seat to move in response to switch inputs. If left seat switch circuit continues to be active for 30 seconds after a motor controlled by that switch reaches end of travel, switch will be considered shorted, and MSM will store DTC. If a position sensor DTC is current and associated switch is active for 30 continuous seconds, switch will be considered shorted, and MSM will store DTC.

Scheme 7
All position sensors use common ground and 5-volt reference circuits. If a 5-volt reference circuit is short to ground or voltage, multiple codes will store. If sensor ground circuit is open, multiple codes will store.
Memory function switches are normally open, and are wired to Driver's Door Switch Assembly (DDSA). When a memory recall switch is pressed, switch pulls 5-volt signal circuit from DDSA low. DDSA senses that a memory recall signal was pulled low and a class 2 message is sent out identifying that circuit is active. If a memory recall switch circuit is active for 30 continuous seconds or more, circuit will be considered shorted, and DDSA will store DTC. When DTC is stored, DDSA ignores an invalid switch input from memory function switch, and will not respond to it. DDSA will respond to all other valid switch inputs. DTC automatically clears when switch circuit storing DTC is no longer active.
