GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Front door window lift motors use permanent type
magnets. The B+ and ground applied at the motor
terminal pins will cause the motor to rotate in one
direction. Reversing current through the motor ter-
minals will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite
direction.
The power window motors ground through the
master switch in the driver door (Fig. 1) by a black
wire attached to the left cowl panel. Refer to Group
8W, Wiring Diagrams from circuit information and
component locations.
The power rear vent windows, if equipped, are
operated by switches mounted in the driver door
switch bezel. A separate switch is used for each win-
dow. Permanent magnet type motors connected to a
crank system are used to open and close the rear
vent windows. A battery positive and negative con-
nection to either of the two motor terminals will
cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing
current through these same two connections willcause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit infor-
mation and component locations.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
POWER VENT WINDOW MOTOR TEST
If the power vent window motor is receiving proper
current and ground and does not operate proceed
with motor test. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams
for circuit information and component locations.
(1) Remove D-pillar trim panel necessary to gain
access to power vent window motor wire connector,
refer to Group 23, Body for proper procedures.
(2) Disconnect power vent window motor wire con-
nector from body harness.
(3) Using two jumper wires, connect one to a bat-
tery (+) source and the other to a good ground (-).
(4) Connect the Negative (-) jumper probe to one of
the motor connector terminals.
(5) Momentarily touch the Positive (+) jumper
probe to the other motor connector terminal.
When positive probe is connected the motor should
rotate in one direction to either move window open or
closed. If window is all the way open or closed the
motor will grunt and the crank system will flex when
actuated in that one direction.
Reverse jumper probes at the motor connector ter-
minals and window should now move in opposite
direction. If window does not move or grunt, replace
the motor.
If window moved completely open or closed, reverse
the jumper probes and cycle window to the opposite
position to verify full operation.
If motor grunts and does not move, verify that
crank system is not binding.

If motor grunts and does not move, verify that reg-
ulator is not binding.
WIRING VOLTAGE TEST
The following wiring test determines whether or
not voltage is continuous through the body harness
to switch.
(1) Remove the master power window switch and
bezel assembly from the driver door. Refer to Group
23, Body for proper procedures.
(2) Disconnect wire connector from back of power
window switch.
(3) Switch ignition ON position.
(4) Connect the clip end of a 12 volt test light to
Pin 13 in door harness connector at the window
switch. Touch the test light probe to Pin 9 and then
to Pin 11.
²If the test light illuminates, the wiring circuit
between the battery and switch is OK.
²If light does not illuminate, check the 40 amp
fuse in the Power Distribution Center or for a broken
wire.
²The power window motors are protected with
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) device that

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Power seats can be adjusted in eight directions; up,
down, forward, back, tilt forward, or tilt rearward.
Four reversible motors and a transmission located on
the seat tracks provide the various seat movements.
The electrical circuit is protected by a 40 amp fuse in
the Power Distribution Center (PDC) and a 30 amp
circuit breaker located in the wire harness under the
driver's seat.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
Before testing the seat functions, verify that the
battery is fully charged and the terminals cleaned
and tightened to ensure proper connections. If the
battery is not fully charged, refer to Group 8A Bat-
tery for proper testing procedures.
The following test will determine if the circuit is
complete through the body harness to the switch:
Using a voltmeter, verify the condition of the power
seat circuit breaker located under the driver's seat.
The circuit breaker also protects the passenger side
power seat track circuit. Check both sides of the cir-
cuit breaker connector for voltage, on the wire side.
²If not OK replace circuit breaker.
²If battery voltage is detected on both sides of the
circuit breaker. Refer to Seat Motor in the Diagnostic
and Testing in this section.²If seat motors test OK, refer to the Seat Switch
in the Diagnostic and Testing in this section.
²Refer to Group 8W Wiring Diagrams for wire
circuit information.
SEAT MOTORS
(1) Remove power seat switch from seat. Refer to
Group 23 Body for procedures.
(2) Disconnect wire connector.
(3) Using a voltmeter check for battery voltage at
Pin 5. Using an ohmmeter, check Pin 1 for ground.
(4) To test the seat motors, refer to (Fig. 1) and
verify proper seat responses. Using two jumper
wires, connect one to a battery supply and the other
to a ground. Connect the other ends to the seat wire
harness connector as described in (Fig. 1). If any
motor fails to operate, check wire connectors to the
motor. If not OK, repair as necessary. If OK, replace
seat motor/track assembly.
POWER SEAT SWITCH
(1) Remove power seat switch from seat. Refer to
Group 23 Body for procedures.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, perform the switch conti-
nuity tests in (Fig. 2). If there is no continuity at any
of the switch positions, replace switch.
NSPOWER SEATS 8R - 1
two positions of seat and recliner, and the side view
mirrors as chosen by the driver.
The inputs from these switches to the memory
seat/mirror module is a ground level signal.
(1) Adjust the seat, recliner and side view mirrors
to the desired position.
(2)
Press momentarily and release memory switch S.
(3) Press momentarily and release memory switch
1 or 2. Do NOT press any switches for 10 seconds.
(4) To program the second driver's position, follow
the above sequence.
(5) To recall either of the programmed positions
momentarily press and release either memory selec-
tor switch 1 or 2.
DEFINITION OF: MOMENTARILY AND
RELEASE
The memory seat/mirror module has switch input
timing requirements of a minimum press momen-
tarily time of 250 milliseconds followed by a maxi-
mum hold time of 5 seconds, followed by a maximum
release time between steps of 5 seconds that must be
met for proper operation of the system.
SEAT AND RECLINER SWITCHES
The seat and recliner switch assembly is mounted
outboard on the seat side-shield. Press and hold the
desired seat or recliner switch to effect movement.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module) will
drive a maximum of 2 motors at a time in a given
direction. If conflicting directions are requested, the
priority for response will be as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward
²Seat Front Down
²Seat Rear Down
²Recliner Rearward
²Seat Track Forward
²Seat Front Up
²Seat Rear Up
²Recliner Forward
The inputs from these switches to the MSM Mod-
ule is a current limited battery source fed by the
MSM Module. This protects the MSM Module printed
circuit board traces from acting as fuses. All of these
switch contact inputs to the module are normally
closed to ground, except when actuated.
POSITION SENSING SEAT AND RECLINER
POTENTIOMETERS
A potentiometer is mounted to each seat track and
recliner motor end-bell to provide a sense voltage to
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module that will indicate to
the module where the seat track or recliner is posi-
tioned.
This sense voltage is derived from a 5 volt source
provided by the module to the potentiometer. Thesense voltage is input into the module and stored by
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
MEMORY SELECTOR SWITCHES
To test the memory selector switch:
(1) Remove the memory selector switch. Refer to
removal procedure.
(2) Using an ohmmeter check continuity reading
between switch pins. Refer to (Fig. 1) for proper Pin
numbers.
SIDE VIEW MIRROR SWITCH STUCK
The mirror switches in the instrument panel have
normally open contacts when in their inactive state.
The left/right rocker switch has a center-off detent. If
this switch is actuated to either side, it then becomes
connected to the P73/P70, circuits which are the mir-
ror motor common connections. No faults will result
from this action by itself. If one of the other switch
contacts from the round portion of the switch
becomes accidentally closed,It can cause problems
such as both mirrors operating at the same
time in the vertical or horizontal modes.
²Turn ignition switch ON: If two mirror switch
contacts, from the round portion, are stuck in the
closed position, and the left/right portion is actuated
to either side, a mirror motor will become actuated.
This will drive the motor to its stop, where it will
keep ratcheting until a switch contact is released or
the ignition is turned to OFF. Replace the mirror
switch assembly to correct this condition.
²With the ignition switch in the ON or the OFF
position: If only one mirror switch contact is stuck in
the closed position, the mirror motor will not become
actuated. During an ignition switch recall of a driv-

nector (cavity 5)This is a low current battery
feed from the control module that will not illu-
minate a test lamp.
During shipping of the vehicle, an M1 circuit 10
amp fuse (labeled IOD) is temporarily removed from
the PDC in the engine compartment to eliminate
unnecessary battery depletion. However, this fused
circuit being open (that feeds through the electrical
distribution wiring to cavity 16 of the 25-way connec-
tor) will not stop manual seat actuations from taking
place (only recall mode requests) during shipping.
(1) If the memory seat/mirror module does not
respond with a relay click to any seat switch input
(as well as the desired motion) when actuated, pro-
ceed with the following analysis:²Verify power ON F35 and ground Z1 into the
system as indicated above.
²Verify all connectors are mated with the memory
seat/mirror module.
²Place the vehicle gear shift lever in any position
except PARK (causes the Memory Seat/Mirror Mod-
ule to wake-up and provide a position sense voltage
to the seat motor potentiometers and the mirror
rheostat(s). This voltage can be checked at the appro-
priate cavities of the 21 and 25-way connectors.
²Verify the switch connector is mated with the
seat switch on the inside of the outboard side-shield.
²Verify battery voltage at the P9 circuit refer-
enced to the Z1A ground reference (cavity 1) of the
seat switch. If P9 low current battery is not available

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)
coming from the module, replace the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module.
²If P9 low current battery is present at (cavity 5)
referenced to ground Z1 (cavity 1) of the seat switch,
verify the presence of the P9 voltage at the switch
outputs. If there is no output voltage from the
switch, replace the switch.
²If P9 voltage is present at the output of the
switch, but there is no reaction from the memory
seat/mirror module, verify that the P9 voltage is
present at the appropriate 21-way connector pins
into the module. If the P9 voltage is not present at
the 21-way connector, repair or replace the seat wir-
ing harness. If the verification check of the seat wir-
ing harness is correct, replace the control module.
(2) If the control module does not respond with a
relay click to a specific seat switch when actuated,
verify the continuity of the particular circuit between
the seat switch and the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
If the P9 voltage is present at the correct input of the
21-way connector of the module when the switch is
actuated, but there is no response by the module,
replace the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
(3) If the Memory Seat/Mirror Module responds
with a relay click when a seat switch is actuated for
a given direction, but there is no reaction from a seat
or recliner motor relating to that switch input, dis-
connect the 10-way connector from the control mod-
ule. Jumper the battery and ground from cavities 8
and 7 of the seat harness 10-way connector to the
proper cavities for the seat or recliner motor in ques-
tion and direction of travel desired. If the motor oper-
ates, replace the control module. If the motor does
not operate, verify continuity of the wiring into the
motor 2-way connector. Repair or replace the wiring
as necessary. If the wiring has continuity, and the
motor will not operate when fed directly, replace the
track assembly, since the motor/transmission combi-
nations are not designed to be serviced on an individ-
ual basis.
SEAT AND RECLINER POSITION SENSING
Seat and recliner position sense ground reference
circuit P28 BR/RD feed is from the memory seat/mir-
ror module (cavity 10) 21-way connector to each of
the position sense connectors.
Seat and recliner position sense +5 volt feed circuit
P29 BR/WT feed is from the memory seat/mirror
module (cavity 20) 21-way connector to each of the
position sense connectors.
To test for the presence of a sense voltage, a volt
meter must be used as follows:
²Connect the negative probe to the P28 circuit
(cavity 10) of the 21-way connector.
²Connect the positive probe to the P29 circuit
(cavity 20) of the 21-way connector and verify a volt-age reading between 3.5 and 5 volts when a seat or
recliner switch is activated.An internal timer in
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module)
regulates the length of time this voltage stays
active i.e., 3 seconds from the time that the
switch was activated, unless the switch is held
or while the transmission is out of PARK.If the
voltage is less than 3.5, there is a fault in the system
that is drawing it down. To troubleshoot this circuit,
disconnect the 25-way connector from the MSM Mod-
ule (this removes all of the vehicle mirror circuitry).
If the voltage is still less than 3.5, disconnect each of
the position sense connectors from each of the
motors. If the voltage remains less than 3.5, replace
the MSM Module. If the voltage increases when a
motor is disconnected from the system, determine if
the fault is in the wiring or the motor assembly.
Repair or replace the wire harness assembly as
needed. If the fault is in the motor position sensing
potentiometer, replace the track assembly.
²The potentiometers built onto the motor end-bell
provide voltages to the MSM Module through the
21-way connector, which change as follows, corre-
sponding to the given seat actuations. Refer to Seat
Actuations Table.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) DATA LINK
