Diagnostic Test

  1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a scan tool, record and erase Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
    3. Press the seat switch in all directions several times then wait one minute.
    4. Using a scan tool, read DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display: B1D63-POWER SEAT SWITCH OPEN?

      Yes 

      • Go to  2

      No 

      • The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Verify seat harness is routed correctly. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors. Look for chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals.
      • Perform POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Memory Seat (MSMD) - Standard Procedure .
  2. CHECK THE (P309) DRIVER SEAT REAR VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL SWITCH MUX CIRCUIT RESISTANCE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Memory Seat Module C4 connector.
      NOTE: Check connectors. Clean and repair as necessary.
    3. Measure the resistance between the (P309) Driver Seat Rear Vertical/Horizontal Switch MUX circuit and the (P28) Driver Seat Switch MUX Return circuit at the Memory Seat Module C4 connector.

      Is the resistance 47.0 Ohms + or - 1.0?

      Yes 

      • Go to  3

      No 

      • Go to  5
  3. CHECK THE (P311) DRIVER SEAT FRONT VERTICAL/RECLINER SWITCH MUX CIRCUIT RESISTANCE
