DRIVER POWER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The power seat in standard cab models can be
adjusted in six different ways using the power seat
switches (Fig. 1). The power seat switch for extended
cab models (club cab and quad cab) has an additional
switch knob for adjusting the power lumbar support.
The switch is located on the lower outboard side of the
seat cushion on the seat cushion side shield on all mod-
els. Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box
for more information on the power seat switch functions
and the seat adjusting procedures.
The individual switches in the power seat switch
module cannot be repaired. If one switch is damaged
or faulty, the entire power seat switch module must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When a power switch control knob or knobs are actu-
ated, a battery feed and a ground path are applied
through the switch contacts to the power seat track or
recliner adjuster motor. The selected adjuster motor
operates to move the seat track or recliner through its
drive unit in the selected direction until the switch is
released, or until the travel limit of the adjuster is
reached. When the switch is moved in the opposite
direction, the battery feed and ground path to the motor
are reversed through the switch contacts. This causes
the adjuster motor to run in the opposite direction.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the adjuster has reached its travel limit.
The power seat adjuster motors each contain a self-re-
setting circuit breaker to protect them from overload.
However, consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit
breaker must not be allowed to continue, or the motor
may be damaged.

LUMBAR CONTROL SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The 8-way power seat option includes an electri-
cally operated lumbar support mechanism. A single
two-way momentary power lumbar switch is integral
with the power seat switches. The power lumbar
switch is secured to the back of the seat cushion side
shield with screws, and the switch paddle protrudes
through a hole to the outside of the shield. The
switch paddle is located in a shallow depression
molded into the outer surface of the seat cushion side
shield that helps to shroud it from unintentional
actuation when entering or leaving the vehicle.
The power lumbar switches cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the seat switch
assembly must be replaced.

OPERATION
When the power lumbar switch paddle is actuated,
a battery feed and a ground path are applied through
the switch contacts to the power lumbar adjuster
motor. The motor operates to move the lumbar
adjuster through its drive unit in the selected direc-
tion until the switch is released, or until the travel
limit of the adjuster is reached. When the switch is
moved in the opposite direction, the battery feed and
ground path to the motor are reversed through the
switch contacts. This causes the motor to run in the
opposite direction.
The power lumbar switch should not be held
applied in either direction after the adjuster has
reached its travel limit. The power lumbar adjuster
motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker to pro-
tect it from overload. However, consecutive or fre-
quent resetting of the circuit breaker must not be
allowed to continue, or the motor may be damaged.
REMOVAL
The power lumbar switch is integral with the other
power seat switches. Refer to the appropriate driver
or passenger power front seat switch removal and/or
installation procedure.
LUMBAR MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The 8-way power seat option includes an electri-
cally operated lumbar support mechanism. The only
visible evidence of this option is the separate power
lumbar switch control paddle that is located on the
outboard seat cushion side shield, next to the other
power seat switch control knobs. The power lumbar
adjuster and motor are concealed beneath the seat
back trim cover and padding, where they are secured
to a molded plastic back panel and to the seat back
frame.
The power lumbar adjuster cannot be repaired, and
is serviced only as a unit with the seat back frame. If
the power lumbar adjuster or the seat back frame
are damaged or faulty, the entire seat back frame
unit must be replaced. Refer toBucket Seat Back
in Body for the seat back frame service procedures.
OPERATION
The power lumbar adjuster mechanism includes a
reversible electric motor that is secured to the
inboard side of the seat back panel and is connected
to a worm-drive gearbox. The motor and gearbox
operate the lumbar adjuster mechanism in the center
of the seat back by extending and retracting a cable
that actuates a lever. The action of this lever com-
presses or relaxes a grid of flexible slats. The morethis grid is compressed, the more the slats bow out-
ward against the center of the seat back padding,
providing additional lumbar support.
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - POWER LUMBAR
ADJUSTER
Actuate the power lumbar switch to move the
power lumbar adjuster in each direction. The power
lumbar adjuster should move in both directions. It
should be noted that the power lumber adjuster nor-
mally operates very quietly and exhibits little visible
movement. If the power lumbar adjuster fails to oper-
ate in only one direction, move the adjuster a short
distance in the opposite direction and test again to be
certain that the adjuster is not at its travel limit. If
the power lumbar adjuster still fails to operate in
only one direction, refer toPower Lumbar Switch
in the Diagnosis and Testing section of this group. If
the power lumbar adjuster fails to operate in either
direction, perform the following tests. For complete
circuit diagrams, refer toPower Seatin Wiring Dia-
grams.
(1) Check the power seat circuit breaker in the
junction block. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace
the faulty power seat circuit breaker.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the power seat cir-
cuit breaker in the junction block. If OK, go to Step
3. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the
fuse in the Power Distribution Center as required.
(3) Remove the outboard seat cushion side shield
from the seat. Disconnect the seat wire harness con-
nector from the power lumbar switch connector
receptacle. Check for battery voltage at the fused
B(+) circuit cavity of the power seat wire harness
connector for the power lumbar switch. If OK, go to
Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit
to the power seat circuit breaker in the junction
block as required.
(4) Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the power seat wire harness connector
for the power lumbar switch and a good ground.
There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not
OK, repair the open ground circuit to ground as
required.
(5) Test the power lumbar switch. Refer toPower
Lumbar Switchin the Diagnosis and Testing sec-
tion of this group. If the switch tests OK, test the cir-
cuits of the power seat wire harness between the
power lumbar adjuster motor and the power lumbar
switch for shorts or opens. If the circuits check OK,
replace the faulty seat back frame assembly. If the
circuits are not OK, repair the power seat wire har-
ness as required.

DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - POWER SEAT
RECLINER
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power seat
system. Actuate the power seat recliner switch to
move the power seat recliner adjuster in each direc-
tion. The power seat recliner adjuster should move in
both directions. If the power seat recliner adjuster
fails to operate in only one direction, move the
adjuster a short distance in the opposite direction
and test again to be certain that the adjuster is not
at its travel limit. If the power seat recliner adjuster
still fails to operate in only one direction, refer to
Power Seat Switchin the Diagnosis and Testing
section of this group. If the power recliner adjuster
fails to operate in either direction, perform the fol-
lowing tests. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to
Power Seatin Wiring Diagrams.
(1) Check the power seat circuit breaker in the
junction block. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace
the faulty power seat circuit breaker.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the power seat cir-
cuit breaker in the junction block. If OK, go to Step
3. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the
fuse in the Power Distribution Center as required.
(3) Remove the outboard seat cushion side shield
from the seat. Disconnect the seat wire harness con-
nector from the power seat switch connector recepta-
cle. Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+)
circuit cavity of the power seat wire harness connec-
tor for the power seat switch. If OK, go to Step 4. If
not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the
power seat circuit breaker in the junction block as
required.
(4) Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the power seat wire harness connector
for the power seat switch and a good ground. There
should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK,
repair the open ground circuit to ground as required.(5) Test the power seat switch. Refer toPower
Seat Switchin the Diagnosis and Testing section of
this group. If the switch tests OK, test the circuits of
the power seat wire harness between the power seat
recliner adjuster motor and the power seat switch for
shorts or opens. If the circuits check OK, replace the
faulty power seat recliner unit. If the circuits are not
OK, repair the power seat wire harness as required.
POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
There are three reversible motors that operate the
power seat adjuster. The motors are connected to
worm-drive gearboxes that move the seat adjuster
through a combination of screw-type drive units.
The front and rear of a seat are operated by differ-
ent motors. They can be raised or lowered indepen-
dently of each other. When the center seat switch is
pushed in the Up or Down direction, both the front
and rear motors operate in unison. On standard cab
models the entire seat is moved up or down, on
extended cab models (club cab and quad cab) the seat
cushion moves independently of the seat back in the
up or down directions. The forward-rearward motor
is operated by pushing the center seat switch in the
Forward or Rearward direction, which moves the
entire seat in the selected direction on all models.
Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker
to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent
resetting of the circuit breakers must not be allowed
to continue, or the motors may be damaged. Make
the necessary repairs.
The power seat adjuster and motors cannot be
repaired, and are serviced only as a complete unit. If
any component in this unit is faulty or damaged, the
entire power seat adjuster and motors assembly must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When a power seat switch is actuated, a battery
feed and a ground path are applied through the
switch contacts to the motor(s). The motor(s) and
drive unit(s) operate to move the seat in the selected
direction until the switch is released, or until the
travel limit of the power seat adjuster is reached.
When the switch is moved in the opposite direction,
the battery feed and ground path to the motor(s) are
reversed through the switch contacts. This causes the
motor to run in the opposite direction.

POWER WINDOWS
DESCRIPTION
Power windows are available as factory-installed
optional equipment on this model. The power lock
system is included on vehicles equipped with the
power window option.
OPERATION
The power window system allows each of the front
door windows to be raised and lowered electrically by
actuating a switch on the trim panel of each respec-
tive door. Additionally, the master switch on the
driver side door trim panel allows the driver to raise
or lower the passenger side front door window. The
power window system receives battery feed through a
circuit breaker in the junction block, only when the
ignition switch is in the On position.
The power window system includes the power win-
dow switches on each front door trim panel, the cir-
cuit breaker in the junction block, and the power
window motors inside each front door. This group
covers diagnosis and service of only the electrical
components in the power window system. For service
of mechanical components, such as the regulator, lift
plate, window tracks, or glass refer to Group 23 -
Body.
Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for more information on the features, use and
operation of the power window system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER
WINDOWS
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out informationand location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
ALL WINDOWS INOPERATIVE
(1) Check the circuit breaker in the junction block.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the faulty cir-
cuit breaker.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Remove the power window and lock switch and
bezel unit from the driver side front door trim panel.
Unplug the wire harness connector from the switch
and bezel unit.
(3) Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the switch and bezel unit wire harness
connector and a good ground. If OK, (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/POWER WINDOWS/POWER WIN-
DOW SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If not
OK, repair the circuit to ground as required.
ONE WINDOW INOPERATIVE
The window glass must be free to slide up and
down for the power window motor to function prop-
erly. If the glass is not free to move up and down, the
motor will overload and trip the integral circuit
breaker. To determine if the glass is free, disconnect
the regulator plate from the glass. Then slide the
window up and down by hand.
There is an alternate method to check if the glass
is free. Position the glass between the up and down
stops. Then, shake the glass in the door. Check that
the glass can be moved slightly from side to side,
front to rear, and up and down. Then check that the
glass is not bound tight in the tracks. If the glass is
free, proceed with the diagnosis that follows. If the
glass is not free, (Refer to 23 - BODY/DOOR -
