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
The memory seat/mirror module interfaces with
the RKE via a serial data link (single wire). The pro-
gramming sequence to relate an RKE transmitter to
the chosen seat, recliner and side view mirror posi-
tions consists of the following steps:
(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
1or2.
(4) Press momentarily and release a LOCK button
on an RKE transmitter.
(5) To program the second driver's position, follow
the previous sequence with a second transmitter.
(6) To recall either of the programmed positions
with an RKE transmitter, press momentarily and
release an UNLOCK button on one of the pro-
grammed RKE transmitters.An unprogrammed
RKE transmitter will have no effect on the sys-
tem.
(7) The RKE receiver uses the serial data link to
notify the module of a request from a programmed
transmitter, that an UNLOCK button has been
pressed. This UNLOCK request (from a transmitter
associated with either switch 1 or 2) will activate the

Memory Seat/Mirror Module in the recall mode to
the values that are stored in the module's memory.
(8) Whenever the module receives a specific data
stream from the RKE receiver that involves the pro-
gramming of a new transmitter into the RKE
receiver, the module will clear its nonvolatile memory
seat and recliner values for both memory 1 and 2
and will default to a location consisting of seat track
rearward, seat vertical risers down, and recliner for-
ward in both memory 1 and 2. After this has
occurred, the customer must reprogram their desired
seat and mirror positions.
(9) A recall is possible any time that the vehicle
transmission is in PARK. This condition is monitored
by the Body Control Module (BCM).
(10) A ground placed on the serial data link by the
BCM whenever that the transmission is not in
PARK, will inhibit a recall request from the door
mounted memory switch 1 or 2 or the RKE receiver
that was initiated by either of the validly pro-
grammed transmitters.
NOTE: The module will abort a recall if the trans-
mission is moved out of the PARK position or if any
seat, recliner or memory switch is pressed.REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

(2) Inspect BCM connectors and wires for proper
connection. If OK, replace BCM for tone condition.
DOME LAMP ON CHIME
The dome lamp on chime will warn the driver that
the dome lamps have been left on.
With the ignition is OFF:
²Driver's door OPEN (door ajar switch is closed to
ground)
²Dome lamps are ON (dome lamp switch is closed
to ground),
The chime will sound continuously until driver's
door is closed, dome lamps tuned OFF or until the
battery protection time out of 15 minutes has
expired. Refer Group 8L, Lamps proper procedures.
Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes per minute.
ENGINE TEMPERATURE CRITICAL CHIME
The engine temperature critical chime will warn
the driver that the vehicle's engine is overheating.
While monitoring the coolant temperature, the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM) will send on the CCD
bus as engine temperature every 1.376 seconds to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM calculates
engine temperature and determines if a warning
should occur. This feature is functional only with the
Ignition Switch in the Run/Start position.
When the engine temperature reaches 122ÉC
(252ÉF) the BCM will chime one tone and the engine
temperature lamp comes ON. The BCM turns OFF
the lamp when the engine temperature reaches
117ÉC (242ÉF). The BCM will chime continuously
when the engine temperature reaches 125ÉC (257ÉF).
The chime will turn OFF after four minutes or when
the temperature reaches 117ÉC (242ÉF), which ever
occurs first.
EXTERIOR LAMPS ON CHIME
The exterior lamp on chime will warn the driver
that the exterior lights have been left on.
With the ignition switch OFF:
²Driver's door is open (door ajar switch is closed
to ground)
²Parking lamps or headlamps ON (parking lamp
switch is closed to ground)
The chime will sound until lights are turned OFF,
driver's door closed or until the battery protection
time out of 3 minutes has expired.
Refer to Group 8L, Lamps, for proper service pro-
cedures. Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes per minute.
To test the exterior lamps left on function:
²Turn ignition off
²Remove ignition key
²Turn exterior lamps on with driver's door open.
Chime should sound until lamps are turned off or
driver's door is closed.
KEY-IN IGNITION CHIME
The key-in ignition chime will act as a warning to
the driver that the ignition key has been left in the
ignition switch.
With the ignition switch is in OFF position ONLY:
²Driver's door is open/ajar (door ajar switch is
closed to ground)
²Key is in the ignition switch (key-in ignition
switch is closed to ground)
The chime will sound until one of the above condi-
tions is removed. Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes per
minute.
To test the key-in ignition function, insert key into
the ignition and open driver's door. Do not turn igni-
tion ON. Chime should sound until key is removed
from ignition or driver's door is closed.
LOW OIL PRESSURE CHIME OPERATION
The low oil pressure chime will warn the driver
that the engine oil pressure is low. The oil pressure
switch, will close to ground during a low oil pressure
condition. The oil pressure lamp will illuminate in
the message center. The body control module will
monitor the oil pressure switch and signal a low oil
pressure condition. A continuous four minute warn-
ing chime will sound and the oil pressure lamp will
come ON when the following conditions are met:
²Ignition on and engine not cranking
²Engine running at 420 to 480 rpm for 10 sec-
onds
²Oil pressure switch closed to ground for (1 sec-
ond minimum, 2 seconds maximum)
Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes per minute.
SEAT BELT CHIME
The seat belt chime will sound for 4 to 8 seconds,
when the ignition is turned on and the driver's seat
belt is not buckled (seat belt switch is closed to
ground). This is a reminder to the driver to buckle
the seat belt. The seat belt lamp is controlled by the
mechanical instrument cluster. The cluster will also
illuminate the seat belt warning lamp for 6 seconds.
Buckling the driver's seat belt before the time out
has expired will cause the chime to stop immediately.
Chime rate: 38 to 62 chimes per minute.
To test the seat belt warning system, the ignition
switch must be in the OFF position for 1 minute
before starting the test. Turn the ignition switch to
the on position with the driver's seat belt not buck-
led. The seat belt warning lamp should light and the
chime should sound 4 to 8 seconds.
