Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate S47 Seat Memory Switch. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 30 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If 30 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the X6 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If less than 30 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON/Vehicle in Service Mode.
  4. Press a power seat switch in order to wake up the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
  5. Test for 9 V or greater between each signal circuit terminal listed below and ground:
    • Memory set switch signal terminal 5
    • Memory switch signal terminal 6
    • If less than 9 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the X6 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If 9 V or greater 
  6. Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the X6 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module, Ignition ON/Vehicle in Service Mode.
  7. Test for less than 1 V between each signal circuit terminal listed below and ground:
    • Memory set switch signal terminal 5
    • Memory switch signal terminal 6
    • If 1 V or greater 

      Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V 
  8. Test or replace the S47 Seat Memory Switch.
