Power Seat Control Unit Input Test

NOTE:

SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations (see COMPONENT LOCATION INDEX ), and precautions and procedures (see PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES ) before doing repairs or servicing.
Before troubleshooting the DPMS, troubleshoot the multiplex integrated control system first using B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A ).

Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
Remove the driver's seat (see FRONT SEAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
NOTE: Be careful not to scratch the interior trim.
Disconnect 40P connector (A) and 18P connector (B) from the power seat control unit (C).

Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
- If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
- If the terminals look OK, go to step 5.

With the connectors still disconnected, do the following input test:

If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 6.

Cavity	Wire	Test condition	Test: Desired result	Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
A37	WHT	Under all conditions	Measure the voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage.	Blown No. 7 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box Blown No. 4 (40 A) fuse in the main under-hood fuse box Faulty under-dash fuse/relay box Faulty main under-hood fuse box An open or high resistance in the wire

Reconnect the connectors to the power seat control unit, and do the following input tests:
- If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- If all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.

Cavity	Wire	Test condition	Test: Desired result	Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
