Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Chrysler Voyager and 2022 Chrysler Pacifica. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC 
    1. With the scan tool, read Memory Seat Module-Driver (MSMD) DTCs and record on the work order.
    2. Record the DTC Environmental Data.
    3. With the scan tool, erase MSMD DTCs.
    4. Turn the ignition off.
    5. Turn the ignition on.
    6. Cycle the Power Seat Switch to all positions.
    7. With the scan tool, read MSMD DTCs.

      Is the same DTC active?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

  2. CHECK THE DRIVER SEAT SWITCH CONNECTION 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Inspect the Driver Seat Switch component connector, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
      • Proper connector installation.
      • Damaged connector locks.
      • Corrosion.
      • Other signs of water intrusion.
      • Bent terminals.
      • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
      • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.

      Were there any problems found?

      Yes 

      • Repair as necessary.

      No 

      • Go To  3
  3. CHECK THE DRIVER SEAT SWITCH 
    1. Replace the Driver Seat Switch in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to SWITCH, SEAT, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
    2. Perform the POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST  .

      Is the same DTC active?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4

      No 

      • Test complete.
  4. CHECK THE (P28) SENSOR/SWITCH RETURN CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the MSMD C4 harness connector.
    3. Disconnect the Driver Seat Switch harness connector.
    4. Measure the resistance of the (P28) Sensor/Switch Return circuit between the MSMD C4 harness connector and the Driver Seat Switch harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Repair the (P28) Sensor/Switch Return circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST  .
  5. CHECK THE (P347) DRIVER SEAT SWITCH FRONT VERTICAL/RECLINER SWITCH MUX CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (P347) Driver Seat Switch Front Vertical/Recliner Switch Mux circuit between the MSMD C4 harness connector and the Driver Seat Switch harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6

      No 

      • Repair the (P347) Driver Seat Switch Front Vertical/Recliner Switch Mux circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST  .
  6. CHECK THE (P349) DRIVER SEAT SWITCH REAR VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL SWITCH MUX CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (P349) Driver Seat Switch Rear Vertical/Horizontal Switch Mux circuit between the MSMD C4 harness connector and the Driver Seat Switch harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7

      No 

      • Repair the (P349) Driver Seat Switch Rear Vertical/Horizontal Switch Mux circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST  .
  7. CHECK THE (P9) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (P9) 5-Volt Supply circuit between the MSMD C4 harness connector and the Driver Seat Switch harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8

      No 

  8. CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect all MSMD harness connectors.
    3. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
    4. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
    5. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
      • Proper connector installation.
      • Damaged connector locks.
      • Corrosion.
      • Other signs of water intrusion.
      • Weather seal damage (if equipped).
      • Bent terminals.
      • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
      • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
      • Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.

      Repair any conditions that are found.

    6. Reconnect all MSMD harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    7. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    8. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
