2002 JEEP LIBERTY Remove rear seat

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SEAT TRACK
(1) Remove the power seat switch from the seat
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER SEATS/DRIVER
SEAT SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(2) Checking the body harness side of the power
seat switch electrical connector (Fig. 3), check Pin 1
for ground and Pin 5 for battery voltage. If either of
these two are not present repair the body harness as
required.
(3) To test the seat motors and verify proper seat
responses, refer to the Seat Motor Test table below.
Using two jumper wires, connect one to a battery
supply and the second to a ground. Connect the other
ends to the seat wire harness connector as described
in the Seat Motor Test table.

REMOVAL
(1) Remove the appropriate seat from the vehicle.

seat (Refer to 23 - BODY/SEATS/SEAT CUSHION
SIDE COVERS - REMOVAL).
(3) Remove four seat track mounting bolts from
cushion pan.
(4) Disconnect the power seat electrical and
remove the seat track from the seat cushion.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the seat track and install the retaining
bolts in the seat cushion pan. Torque the bolts to
45-60 N´m.
(2) Route and connect the power seat electrical on
the seat track and cushion pan.
(3) Install the seat cushion side shield on the seat.
Refer to the Body section for the procedure.
(4) Install the seat in the vehicle (Refer to 23 -
BODY/SEATS/SEAT - INSTALLATION).
(5) Connect the negative battery cable.
LEFT POWER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the power seat option uti-
lize a six-way power seat switch. This six-way power
seat switch features one seat cushion shaped knob,
visible on the outboard seat cushion side shield (Fig.
4).
The switch is secured to the back of the seat cush-
ion side shield with two screws. However, the control
knob must be removed before the seat switch can be
removed from the side shield.

SEAT TRACK (Continued)

The individual switches internal to the power seat
switch cannot be repaired. If one switch is damaged
or faulty, the entire power seat switch unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The power seat tracks can be adjusted in six differ-
ent ways using the power seat switches. See the own-
er's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the power seat switch functions and
the seat adjusting procedures.
When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the power seat
track adjuster motor. The selected adjuster motor
operates to move the seat track through its drive
unit in the selected direction until the switch is
released, or until the travel limit of the seat track 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 seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motors each contain a
self-resetting circuit breaker to protect them from
overload. However, consecutive or frequent resetting
of the circuit breaker must not be allowed to con-
tinue, or the motor may be damaged.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - LEFT POWER
SEAT SWITCH
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toPower
Seatin Wiring Diagrams.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the power seat switch from the out-
board seat cushion side shield.
(3) Use an ohmmeter to test the continuity of the
power seat switch in each switch position. See the
Power Seat Switch Continuity chart (Fig. 5) and
switch (Fig. 6) below. If OK, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing the Power Seat Trackin this section. If
not OK, replace the faulty power seat switch unit.

magnitude than that of the electronic impact sensors,
and must be closed in order for the airbags/seat belt
tensioner to deploy. A pre-programmed decision algo-
rithm in the ACM microprocessor determines when
the deceleration rate as signaled by the impact sen-
sors and the safing sensor indicate an impact that is
severe enough to require front supplemental
restraint system protection and, based upon the sta-
tus of the seatbelt switch inputs and the severity of
the monitored impact, determines what combination
of driver seat belt tensioner and/or front airbag
deployment is required for each front seating posi-
tion. When the programmed conditions are met, the
ACM sends the proper electrical signals to deploy the
driver seat belt tensioner and/or the multistage dual
front airbags at the programmed force levels.
The hard wired inputs and outputs for the ACM
may be diagnosed and tested using conventional
diagnostic tools and procedures. However, conven-
tional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in
the diagnosis of the ACM, the PCI data bus network,
or the electronic message inputs to and outputs from
the ACM. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the ACM, the PCI data bus net-
work, and the electronic message inputs to and out-
puts from the ACM requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.

(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before further service.
(2) Remove the center console from the top of the
floor panel transmission tunnel. (Refer to 23 - BODY/
INTERIOR/FLOOR CONSOLE - REMOVAL).
(3) From the left side of the floor panel transmis-
sion tunnel, remove the Airbag Control Module
(ACM) cover from the ACM (Fig. 7). The cover flange
is secured to the silencer pad on the floor panel
transmission tunnel with double-faced tape.
(4) Remove the ground screw that secures the

tunnel. When the ACM is correctly positioned, the
arrow on the ACM housing will be pointed forward in
the vehicle.
(4) Install and tighten the two screws that secure
the ACM to the ACM bracket that is welded onto the
