Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The SCME monitors seat backrest temperature while it supplies voltage and ground to both blower motors. The SCME also supplies a variable voltage signal to control the blower speed. Cabin air enters the blower through a filter integrated to the blower motor housing. Heated or cooled air exits the blower motor and flows through the foam pad.
