knobs for the seat switch unit must be removed
before the seat switch can be removed from the side
shield.
The power seat switch cannot be repaired. If one
switch is damaged or faulty, the entire power seat
switch unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
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 or recliner adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track or
recliner 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 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-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. See the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for more information
on the power seat switch functions and the seat
adjusting procedures.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DRIVER SEAT
SWITCH
(1) Remove the power seat switch, refer to the
Switch Removal and Installation procedures in this
section.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check pin #1 in the power
seat switch connector receptacle for continuity to
ground. It should be present. If OK, go to Step 3. If
not OK, repair the open ground circuit as required.
(3) Using an voltmeter, check pin #5 of the wire
harness connector for the power seat switch for bat-
tery current. It should be present. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, repair the open voltage supply circuit as
required.
(4) Using an ohmmeter, test the power seat switch
continuity as shown in the Test Table at the pins in
the switch connector receptacle (Fig. 3). If there is no
continuity at any of the switch positions, replace the
power seat switch.

MEMORY SET SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory system have a
memory switch mounted to the driver side front door
trim panel (Fig. 5). This switch is used to set and
recall all of the memory system settings for up to two
drivers. The memory switch is a resistor multiplexed
unit that is hard wired to the Body Control Module
(BCM). The BCM sends out the memory system set
and recall requests to the other electronic modules
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus.
The memory switch cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring Dia-
grams.

OPERATION
The memory switch has three momentary switch
buttons labeled Set, 1 and 2. When the memory set
switch is depressed, a resistance value is sent to the
Body Control Module via hard wired connections.
When the memory system is in ªsetº mode a chime
will be generated by the body control module.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the memory switch.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY SWITCH
(1) Remove the memory set switch from the driv-
ers door panel (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS/MEMORY SET SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check the continuity of the
memory select switch MUX circuit between the C2
wire harness connector for the body control module
and the wire harness connector for the memory
switch. There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step
3. If not OK, repair the open or shorted MUX circuit
as required.
(3) Using an ohmmeter, check the continuity of the
memory select switch return circuit between the C2
wire harness connector for the body control module
and the wire harness connector for the memory
switch. There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, repair the open or shorted return circuit
as required.
(4) Using an ohmmeter, test the resistances of the
memory switch at the pins in the switch connector
receptacle in each switch position. See the Memory
Switch Test Table. If OK, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing Memory Systemin this section. If not OK,
replace the faulty memory set switch.

PASSENGER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a passenger side power seat
utilize a four-way power seat switch. This four-way
power seat switch features two knobs ganged
together on the outboard seat cushion side shield.
The switch is secured to the back of the seat cush-
ion side shield with two screws. However, the control
knobs for the seat switch unit must be removed
before the seat switch can be removed from the side
shield.
The power seat switch cannot be repaired. If one
switch is damaged or faulty, the entire power seat
switch unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
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 or recliner adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track or
recliner 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 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-resetting circuit breaker to protect them from
overload. However, consecutive or frequent resetting

DRIVER POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The eight-way driver side power seat option
includes a electrically operated power seat track
located under the driver side front seat. The front
power seat track on the driver side of the vehicle also
provides the mounting location for the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module (MSMM). The power seat circuit
breakers are mounted on the rear of the driver side
power seat track, just behind the seat rear trim
panel. The lower half of the power seat track is
secured to the floor panel via four studs and nuts
that must be accessed from the underside of the vehi-
cle. Four bolts secure the bottom of the seat cushion
pan to the upper half of the power seat track unit.
Four additional bolts secure the seat back frame to
the power seat track unit.
The power seat track unit includes four 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 four power seat
track motors used on models equipped with the
optional memory system incorporates a position
potentiometer integral to the motor assembly, which
electronically monitors the motor position. This
enables the memory system to function by referenc-
ing the motor positions programmed into the memory
seat/mirror module.
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. A third motor is
the horizontal adjustment motor, which moves the
seat track in the forward and rearward directions.
The forth motor is the recliner adjustment motor,
which moves the seat back in the forward and rear-
ward directions.
The power seat track unit cannot be repaired, and
is serviced only as a complete unit. If any componentin this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire power
seat track unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the driver side 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 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-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.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the power seat switch functions
and the seat adjusting procedures.
