MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory seat/mirror
option, utilize a memory module located under the
drivers front seat. This module is basically wired in-
line between the power seat switch and the power
seat track/adjuster motors, or in-line between the
power mirror switch and the power side view mir-
ror(s) motor(s). The MSMM contains a central pro-
cessing unit that communicates with other modules
on the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
hard wired inputs from the driver power seat switch
and the potentiometers on each of the driver side
power seat track motors, or from the power mirror
switch and the potentiometers on the side view mir-
ror. The MSMM receives messages over the PCI data
bus from the Body Control Module (BCM) (memory
switch status), the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
(vehicle speed status). The MSMM will prevent the
seat memory recall function from being initiated if
the driver side seat belt is buckled, if the transmis-
sion gear selector lever is not in the Park or Neutral
positions, or if the vehicle is moving.
For diagnosis of the MSMM or the PCI data bus, a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual are recommended. The MSMM cannot
be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced. Refer toMemory Systemin the Power
Seat or Power Mirror section of this manual for more
information on the memory system option.
OPERATION
When memory system operation is requested
(depressing of the memory switch), a resistor multi-
plexed signal is sent from the memory switch to the
body control module (BCM). The body control module
will then send the appropriate signals out to the
memory/mirror seat module, the memory/mirror seat
module then applies the voltage supply to the power
seat track or side-view mirror if the proper require-
ments are met. The vehicle speed must equal zero
and the transmission must be in park or neutral in
order for the memory system to function.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY
SEAT/MIRROR MODULE
Visually inspect the related wiring harness connec-
tors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded
terminals. If any of the above conditions are present,
repair as necessary. If not, use a DRB IIItscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures Manual to testthe memory/mirror seat module. For complete circuit
diagrams, refer toWiring Diagrams.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the driver side front bucket seat
retaining nuts from under the vehicle (Refer to 23 -
BODY/SEATS/SEAT - REMOVAL).
(3) Lift the drivers seat up and out of the mount-
ing holes in the floor pan and lay the seat rearward
to access the module located under the seat. It is not
necessary to disconnect the seat electrical, just use
care not to damage the wiring by over-extending.
(4) Disconnect the memory/mirror seat module
electrical connectors. Depress the retaining tab and
pull straight apart.
(5) Remove the module retaining bolts and remove
the module from the bracket.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position and install the module retaining bolts.
(2) Connect the memory/mirror seat module elec-
trical connectors.
(3) Position the drivers seat in the mounting holes
in the floor pan.
(4) Install the driver side front bucket seat retain-
ing nuts from under the vehicle (Refer to 23 - BODY/
SEATS/SEAT - INSTALLATION).
(5) Connect the battery negative cable.
SLIDING DOOR CONTROL
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power sliding door utilize
a sliding door control module. The sliding door con-
trol module is located behind the sliding door trim
panel in the center of the door, just above the sliding
door motor (Fig. 20). This module controls the opera-
tion of the door through the Programmable Commu-
nication Interface (PCI) J1850 data bus circuit and
the Body Control Module. The sliding door control
module contains software technology which enables it
to detect resistance to door travel and to reverse door
travel in order to avoid damage to the door or to
avoid possible personal injury if the obstruction is a
person. This feature functions in both the opening
and closing cycles. If the power sliding door system
develops any problems the control module will store
and recall Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). The use
of a diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB IIItis
required to read and troubleshoot these trouble
codes. The sliding door control module can be

PCM/SKIM PROGRAMMING
When a PCM (JTEC) and the SKIM are replaced
at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
(1) Program the new PCM (JTEC)
(2) Program the new SKIM
(3) Replace all ignition keys and program them to
the new SKIM.
ECM/SKIM PROGRAMMING
When an ECM (Bosch) and the SKIM are replaced
at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
(1) Program the new SKIM
(2) Program the new ECM (Bosch)
PROGRAMMING THE ECM (Bosch)
(1) To program the VIN, connect the DRB III and
turn the ignition on.
(2) Select Engine from the main menu. The DRB
III will require the VIN to be entered before continu-
ing.
(3) Select ENTER to update the VIN. The DRB III
will display the updated VIN.
(4) If the engine is equipped with air conditioning,
the ECM A/C function must be enabled. Enable the
ECM A/C function as follows:
²Using the DRB III select ENGINE, MISCELLA-
NEOUS, then ENABLE/DISABLE A/C
²Push 1 to enable A/C. DRB III screen should dis-
play A/C Activated.
PROGRAMMING THE PCM (JTEC)
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique
to each SKIM. This code is programmed and stored
in the SKIM, PCM and transponder chip (ignition
keys). When replacing the PCM it is necessary to
program the secret key into the new PCM using the
DRB III. Perform the following steps to program the
secret key into the PCM.
(1) Turn the ignition switch on (transmission in
park/neutral).
(2) Use the DRB III and select THEFT ALARM,
SKIM then MISCELLANEOUS.
(3) Select PCM REPLACED (GAS ENGINE).
(4) Enter secured access mode by entering the
vehicle four-digit PIN.
(5) Select ENTER to update PCM VIN.
NOTE: If three attempts are made to enter secure
access mode using an incorrect PIN, secured
access mode will be locked out for one hour. To
exit this lockout mode, turn the ignition to the RUN
position for one hour then enter the correct PIN.
(Ensure all accessories are turned off. Also monitorthe battery state and connect a battery charger if
necessary).
(6) Press ENTER to transfer the secret key (the
SKIM will send the secret key to the PCM).
(7) Press Page Back to get to the Select System
menu and select ENGINE, JTEC (diesel only), MIS-
CELLANEOUS, and SRI MEMORY CHECK.
(8) The DRB III will ask, Is odometer reading
between XX and XX? Select the YES or NO button on
the DRB III. If NO is selected, the DRB III will read,
Enter odometer Reading. Enter
the odometer reading from the Instrument Panel and
press ENTER.
PROGRAMMING THE SKIM
(1) Turn the ignition switch on (transmission in
park/neutral).
(2) Use the DRB III and select THEFT ALARM,
SKIM then MISCELLANEOUS.
(3) Select PCM REPLACED (GAS ENGINE).
(4) Program the vehicle four-digit PIN into SKIM.
(5) Select COUNTRY CODE and enter the correct
country.
NOTE: Be sure to enter the correct country code. If
the incorrect country code is programmed into
SKIM, the SKIM must be replaced.
(6) Select YES to update VIN (the SKIM will learn
the VIN from the PCM).
(7) Press ENTER to transfer the secret key (the
PCM will send the secret key to the SKIM).
(8) Program ignition keys to SKIM.
NOTE: If the PCM and the SKIM are replaced at the
same time, all vehicle keys will need to be replaced
and programmed to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING IGNITION KEYS TO THE SKIM
(1) Turn the ignition switch on (transmission in
park/neutral).
(2) Use the DRB III and select THEFT ALARM,
SKIM then MISCELLANEOUS.
(3) Select PROGRAM IGNITION KEY'S.
(4) Enter secured access mode by entering the
vehicle four-digit PIN.
NOTE: A maximum of eight keys can be learned to
each SKIM. Once a key is learned to a SKIM it (the
key) cannot be transferred to another vehicle.
If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the
DRB III will display one of the following messages:
Programming Not Attempted - The DRB III
attempts to read the programmed key status and
there are no keys programmed into SKIM memory.
