Refer toHeated Seat Systemfor more informa-
tion on the heated seat system. Refer toRemote
Keyless Entry Systemin Power Lock Systems for
more information on the RKE system.
Refer toWiring Diagramsfor complete circuit
diagrams. Following are descriptions, theory of oper-
ation, diagnosis/testing procedures and removal/in-
stallation procedures of the major components in the
memory and power seat systems.
OPERATION
OPERATION - POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system receives battery current
through fuse #22 in the Intelligent Power Module
and a circuit breaker under the front seats, regard-
less 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.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat track each contain a self-reset-
ting circuit breaker to protect them from overload.
However, consecutive or frequent resetting of the cir-
cuit breaker must not be allowed to continue, or the
motor may be damaged. 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.
OPERATION - MEMORY SYSTEM
The Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
battery current through fuse #22 in the Intelligent
Power Module and the power seat system circuit
breaker, located under the driver side front seat near
the rear edge of the seat cushion pan. The memory
system does not operate with the Ignition-Off Draw
(IOD) fuse removed. The MSMM will drive a maxi-
mum of 2 motors at a time in a given direction. If
conflicting directions are requested, the priority for
response will be approximately as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward or Forward
²Seat Front Down or Up
²Seat Rear Down or Up
²Recliner Rearward or ForwardThe inputs from these switches to the MSMM is a
current limited battery source fed by the MSMM.
This protects the MSMM printed circuit board traces
from acting as fuses. All of these switch contact
inputs to the MSMM are normally closed to ground,
except when actuated.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the memory system. For diagnosis of the MSMM,
the PCI data bus, or the other electronic modules on
the PCI data bus that provide inputs and outputs for
the memory system, the use of a DRBIIItscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual are
recommended.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
serves as the user interface for the memory system.
It displays memory system status messages and pro-
vides the user with the means for enabling and dis-
abling the many customer programmable features
available on the vehicle, including those for the mem-
ory system.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the EVIC. Refer toElectronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Centerin Overhead Console Systems for more
information on the EVIC.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SEAT
SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power seat
system. However, if the vehicle is also equipped with
the optional memory system, these tests may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the driver side
power seat. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the driver side power seat with the memory system
option, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the memory system components must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the driver side power seat with the memory
system option requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual. The
DRBIIItscan tool can provide confirmation that the
PCI data bus is functional, that all of the electronic
modules are sending and receiving the proper mes-
sages on the PCI data bus, and that the memory sys-
tem is receiving the proper hard wired inputs and
relaying the proper hard wired outputs to perform its
driver side power seat functions.

TRANSPONDER KEY
DESCRIPTION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) uses a
transponder chip that is integral to each ignition key
(Fig. 1) to communicate with the Sentry Key Immo-
bilizer Module (SKIM). Ignition keys are supplied
with the vehicle when it is shipped from the factory.
The transponder chip is undermolded within the
head of the key. This undermold is hidden beneath
an overmolded rubber cap.
OPERATION
Each Sentry Key has a unique transponder identi-
fication code permanently programmed into it by the
manufacturer. Likewise, the SKIM has a unique
9Secret Key9code programmed into it by the manu-
facturer as well. When a Sentry Key is programmed
into the memory of the SKIM, the SKIM stores the
transponder identification code from the Sentry Key,
and the Sentry Key learns the9Secret Key9code from
the SKIM. Once the Sentry Key learns the9Secret
Key9code of the SKIM, it is also permanently pro-

DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING
DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are
designed to provide information regarding the vehi-
cles wiring content. In order to effectively use the
wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important
to understand all of their features and characteris-
tics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+)
side of the circuit is placed near the top of the page,
and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near
the bottom of the page (Fig. 1).
All switches, components, and modules are shown
in the at rest position with the doors closed and the
key removed from the ignition (Fig. 2).Components are shown two ways. A solid line
around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indi-
cates that the component is being shown is not com-
plete. Incomplete components have a reference
number to indicate the page where the component is
shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made
on the diagrams to represent components and wiring
as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short
piece of wire is treated the same as a long one. In
addition, switches and other components are shown
as simply as possible, with regard to function only.
SYMBOLS
International symbols are used throughout the wir-
ing diagrams. These symbols are consistent with
those being used around the world (Fig. 3).

INTEGRATED POWER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Integrated Power Module (IPM) is a combina-
tion of the Power Distribution Center (PDC) and the
Front Control Module (FCM). The IPM is located in
the engine compartment, next to the battery on this
model (Fig. 2). The power distribution center mates
directly with the Front Control Module (FCM) to
form the IPM Fuse and Relay Center. The power dis-
tribution center (PDC) is a printed circuit board
based module that contains fuses and relays, while
the front control module contains the electronics con-
trolling the IPM and other functions. This IPM con-
nects directly to the battery positive via a four pinconnector. The ground connection is via two other
connectors. The IPM provides the primary means of
voltage distribution and protection for the entire
vehicle.
The molded plastic IPM housing includes a base
and cover. The IPM cover is easily opened or removed
for service access by squeezing the two marked cover
latches and has a fuse and relay layout map integral
to the inside surface of the cover. This IPM housing
base and cover are secured in place by an IPM
mounting bracket. This mounting bracket is designed
to allow the IPM to rotate counter-clockwise once the
locking tab is disengaged. The IPM mounting bracket
is secured in place by bolts threaded into the left
front wheel house.
Replaceable components of the IPM assembly are
broken down into the following components: the
Power Distribution Center (PDC) (without fuses or
relays), the IPM cover, the Front Control Module
(FCM), the IPM mounting bracket, IPM bracket
retaining clips and the IPM assembly which includes
the power distribution center, the cover and FCM.
