HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Individually controlled electrically heated front
seats are available on models that are also equipped
with the optional leather trim package. Vehicles with
this option can be visually identified by the two sep-
arate heated seat switches mounted on the outboard
seat cushion side shields. The heated seat system
allows the front seat driver and passenger to select
from two different levels of supplemental electrical
seat heating, or no seat heating to suit their individ-
ual comfort requirements. The heated seat system for
this vehicle includes the following major components:
²Heated Seat Switches- Two heated seat
switches are used per vehicle, including two Light-
Emitting Diode (LED) indicator lamps and an incan-
descent back lighting bulb for each switch. One
switch for the driver and one for the passenger front
seats. The switches are mounted on the outboard
seat cushion side shields.
²Heated Seat Module- also referred to as the
Seat Heat Interface Module (SHIM), this module con-
tains the solid state electronic control and diagnostic
logic circuitry for the heated seat system. One heated
seat module is used per vehicle and is mounted
under the left front seat cushion. Refer to the Elec-
tronic Control Modules section of the service manual
for heated seat module information.
²Heated Seat Elements- Four heated seat ele-
ments are used per vehicle, one for each front seat
back and one for each front seat cushion. The ele-
ments are integral to the individual front seat andseat back cushions and cannot be removed from the
cushions, once installed at the factory.
²Heated Seat Sensors- Two heated seat sen-
sors are used per vehicle, one for each front seat. The
sensors are integral to the individual front seat heat-
ing elements.
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the heated seat system. See the own-
er's manual in the vehicle glove box for more infor-
mation on the features, use and operation of the
heated seat system. Refer toWiring Diagramsfor
the location of complete heated seat system wiring
diagrams.
OPERATION
The heated seat module receives fused battery cur-
rent through fuse #29 in the Junction Block (JB)
when the ignition switch is in the ªONº position. The
heated seat switches receive battery current through
fuse #25 in the Junction Block also, when the igni-
tion switch is in the ªONº position. The heated seat
module shares a common ground circuit with each of
the heated seat elements. The heated seat elements
will only operate when the surface temperature of
the seat cushion is below the designed temperature
set points of the system.
The heated seat system will also be turned off
automatically whenever the ignition switch is turned
to any position except On. If the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position while a heated seat is
turned ON, the heated seat will remain Off after the
ignition switch is turned back ªONº until a heated
seat switch is depressed again.
8G - 10 HEATED SEAT SYSTEMKJ

OPERATION
The power seat system receives battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) and a circuit breaker in the Junction Block,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
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 appropri-
ate 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.
Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for more information on the features, use and
operation of the power seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SEATS
Before any testing of the power seat system is
attempted, the battery should be fully-charged and
all wire harness connections and pins cleaned and
tightened to ensure proper continuity and grounds.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and joint connector location views for the var-
ious wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
(1) If all power seats are inoperative, check the
automatic resetting circuit breaker in the Junction
Block. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER DISTRI-
BUTION/CIRCUIT BREAKER - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING).
(2) With the dome lamp on, apply the power seat
switch in the direction of the failure.
(3) If the dome lamp dims, the seat or the power
seat track may be jammed. Check under and behind
the seat for binding or obstructions.
(4) If the dome lamp does not dim, proceed with
testing of the individual power seat system compo-
nents and circuits.
SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The six-way power seat option includes a power
seat track assembly located under each front seat
(Fig. 2). The power seat track assembly replaces the
standard manually operated seat tracks. The lower
half of the power seat track is secured at the frontwith two bolts to the floor panel seat cross member,
and at the rear with one bolt and one nut to the floor
panel. Four bolts secure the bottom of the seat cush-
ion frame to the upper half of the power seat track
unit.
The power seat track assembly cannot be repaired,
and is serviced only as a complete assembly. If any
component in this assembly is faulty or damaged, the
entire power seat track must be replaced.
OPERATION
The power seat track unit includes three reversible
electric motors that are secured to the upper half of
the track unit. Each motor moves the seat adjuster
through a combination of worm-drive gearboxes and
screw-type drive units. Each of the three driver side
power seat track motors also has a position potenti-
ometer integral to the motor assembly, which elec-
tronically monitors the motor position.
The front and rear of the seat are operated by two
separate vertical adjustment motors. These motors
can be operated independently of each other, tilting
the entire seat assembly forward or rearward; or,
they can be operated in unison by selecting the
proper power seat switch functions, which will raise
or lower the entire seat assembly. The third motor is
the horizontal adjustment motor, which moves the
seat track in the forward and rearward directions.

is located on the back side of each vertical member of
the radiator support.
²Passenger Airbag- The passenger airbag is
located on the instrument panel, beneath the passen-
ger airbag door on the instrument panel above the
glove box on the passenger side of the vehicle.
²Passenger Knee Blocker- The passenger knee
blocker is a structural reinforcement that is integral
to and concealed within the glove box door.
²Seat Belt Tensioner- The seat belt tensioner
is integral to the driver side front seat belt retractor
unit on vehicles equipped with dual front airbags.
²Side Impact Airbag Control Module-Two
Side Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM) are
used on vehicles with the optional side curtain air-
bags, one left side and one right side. One SIACM is
located behind the B-pillar trim near the base of each
B-pillar.
²Side Curtain Airbag- In vehicles equipped
with this option, a side curtain airbag is located on
each inside roof side rail above the headliner, and
extends from the A-pillar to just beyond the C-pillar.
The ACM, both SIACMs, and the EMIC each con-
tain a central processing unit and programming that
allow them to communicate with each other using
the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
data bus network. This method of communication is
used by the ACM for control of the airbag indicator
on all models equipped with dual front airbags.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/COMMUNICATION - DESCRIP-
TION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the supplemental
restraint system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired
circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system,
and to the supplemental restraint system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
ACTIVE RESTRAINTS The primary passenger
restraints in this or any other vehicle are the stan-
dard equipment factory-installed seat belts. Seat
belts are referred to as an active restraint because
the vehicle occupants are required to physically fas-ten and properly adjust these restraints in order to
benefit from them. See the owner's manual in the
vehicle glove box for more information on the fea-
tures, use and operation of all of the factory-installed
active restraints.
PASSIVE RESTRAINTS The passive restraints
system is referred to as a supplemental restraint sys-
tem because they were designed and are intended to
enhance the protection for the vehicle occupants of
the vehicleonlywhen used in conjunction with the
seat belts. They are referred to as passive systems
because the vehicle occupants are not required to do
anything to make them operate; however, the vehicle
occupants must be wearing their seat belts in order
to obtain the maximum safety benefit from the facto-
ry-installed supplemental restraint systems.
The supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits are continuously monitored and controlled by a
microprocessor and software contained within the
Airbag Control Module (ACM) and, on vehicles
equipped with the side curtain airbags, both Side
Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM). An airbag
indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument Clus-
ter (EMIC) illuminates for about seven seconds as a
bulb test each time the ignition switch is turned to
the On or Start positions. Following the bulb test,
the airbag indicator is turned on or off by the ACM
to indicate the status of the supplemental restraint
system. If the airbag indicator comes on at any time
other than during the bulb test, it indicates that
there is a problem in the supplemental restraint sys-
tem electrical circuits. Such a problem may cause air-
bags not to deploy when required, or to deploy when
not required.
Deployment of the supplemental restraints
depends upon the angle and severity of an impact.
Deployment is not based upon vehicle speed; rather,
deployment is based upon the rate of deceleration as
measured by the forces of gravity (G force) upon the
impact sensors. When an impact is severe enough,
the microprocessor in the ACM or the SIACM signals
the inflator unit of the airbag module to deploy the
airbag. The seat belt tensioner is provided with a
deployment signal by the ACM in conjunction with
the driver airbag. During a frontal vehicle impact,
the knee blockers work in concert with properly fas-
tened and adjusted seat belts to restrain both the
driver and the front seat passenger in the proper
position for an airbag deployment. The knee blockers
also absorb and distribute the crash energy from the
driver and the front seat passenger to the structure
of the instrument panel. The seat belt tensioner
removes the slack from the driver side front seat belt
to provide further assurance that the driver is prop-
erly positioned and restrained for an airbag deploy-
ment.
