DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DOOR LOCK MOTOR
Any diagnosis of the power lock system
should begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiag-
nostic tool. For information on the use of the
DRB IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic
Service Manual.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate wiring information.
Verify battery condition before testing door lock
motor(s).
To determine which motor is faulty, check each
individual door for electrical lock and unlock or dis-
connect the motor connectors one at a time, while
operating the door lock switch. In the event that
none of the motors work, the problem may be caused
by a shorted motor or a faulty switch. Disconnecting
the faulty motor will allow the others to work.
To test an individual door lock motor, disconnect
the electrical connector from the motor. To lock the
door, connect a fused 12 volt power source to the pos-
itive pin of the lock motor and a ground wire to the
other pin. To unlock the door reverse the wire con-
nections at the motor pin terminals. If these results
are not obtained, replace the door latch.

OFF and back ON with the forward-facing light sen-
sor still covered. This defeats the day-detect logic. If
OK, go to Step 8. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror
unit.
(8) With the mirror darkened, place the transmis-
sion gear selector lever in the Reverse position. The
automatic day/night mirror should return to its nor-
mal reflectance. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror
unit.
Bench testing both mirrors can be done, of care is
exercised. For an inside mirror, the pin closest to he
mount is 12V (+), the next is 12V (-). The third is
reverse override. The fourth is outside mirror (+), and
the fifth is outside mirror (-).Do not apply 12 volts to
the fourth and fifth pins.With 12 volts on pins 1 and
2, the mirror can be tested by blocking the rear sensor
and shining a light into the forward sensor. For an out-
side mirror, there is a 2±pin connector. Applying 1.2
volts will cause the mirror to dim. If the mirror does not
dim, the entire glass assembly can be replaced just as it
is when the glass is broken.
WARNING: Do not apply 12 volts to the outside mir-
ror. Damage to the mirror will result.
POWER FOLDAWAY MIRROR
SWITCH - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
These vehicles may be equipped with Power Fold-
away Mirrors. This feature allows both the driver
and passenger side view mirrors to fold inward
(retract) on demand. The vehicle has an additional
switch located on the steering column that controls
the folding function of the mirror assembly (Fig. 2).
The fold-away side view mirror is attached to the
vehicle's door in the same manner as mirrors without
the fold-away option. The fold-away mirrors unique
option is the internal motor which allows the mirrors to
fold inward on demand. The fold-away mirror motor is
not serviceable separately and if a motor is found to be
faulty the entire side view mirror must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the mirror retract switch is depressed, both
of the side view mirrors will fold inward, Thus mak-
ing the overall width of the vehicle the smallest pos-
sible. This can be helpful were parking space is a
absolute minimum.
When the driver's door is opened, only the driver's
door mirror will unfold. If the passenger door is
opened, both mirrors will unfold.
The power fold away mirror system consists of the fol-
lowing components: mirror switch, side view mirror,relay, wires and fuse. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information. The wiring information includes wiring
diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
details of wire harness routing and retention, connector
pin-out information and location views for the various
wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
REMOVAL
(1)Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
(2) Remove the upper and lower steering column
shroud (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN/LOWER
SHROUD - REMOVAL).
(3) Disconnect electrical harness connector.

MEMORY SYSTEM
The memory system is able to store and recall the
driver side power seat positions (including the power
recliner position), power adjustable pedal positions
and the driver outside mirror position for two driv-
ers. On vehicles equipped with a factory radio, the
memory system is also able to store and recall radio
station presets for two drivers. The memory system
also will store and recall the last station listened to
for each driver, even if it is not one of the preset sta-
tions.
The memory system will automatically return to
its preset settings when the corresponding numbered
button of the memory switch is depressed, or when
the doors are unlocked using the corresponding
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A customer
programmable feature of the memory system allows
the RKE recall of memory features to be disabled, if
desired. This programmable feature is internal in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) mod-
ule, which is located in the overhead console.
A Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) is used to
control and integrate the many electronic functions
and features included in the memory seat and mirror
systems.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM)
²Memory set switch
²Position potentiometers on the driver outside
side view mirror
²Position potentiometers on the power adjustable
pedal motor²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable)
Certain functions of the memory system rely upon
resources shared with other electronic modules in the
vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. Initial diagnosis of
these electronic modules or the PCI data bus network
requires the use of a DRBIIItor equivalent scan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures information. If
this method does not prove conclusive, the proper
wiring schematics and the service manual diagnostic
information are required.
The other electronic modules that may affect mem-
ory system operation are:

OPERATION
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system receives battery current
through fuse #22 in the Integrated Power Module
(IPM) and a circuit breaker under the front seats,
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.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motor each contain a

MEMORY 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 Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus.
The memory switch cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
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 (BCM) via hard wired connec-
tions. When the memory system is in ªsetº mode a
chime will be generated by the BCM.

POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The power seat option includes an electrically oper-
ated power seat track located under the front seat. If
equipped with Memory System, 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 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 vehicle. Four bolts secure the bot-
tom 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 eight-way 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 incorpo-
rate a position potentiometer integral to the motor
assembly, which electronically monitors the motor
position. This enables the memory system to function
by referencing 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. They
can also 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 aft directions. The
forth motor is the recliner adjustment motor, which
moves the seat back in the forward and rearward
directions.
The four-way power seat track unit includes two
reversible electric motors that are secured to the

POWER SLIDING DOOR
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles are equipped with a power sliding
door system. Vehicles may be equipped with only a
right side power sliding door or a right and left side
power sliding doors. The components of the power
sliding door system are:
²Door motor assembly
²Latch assembly
²Sliding door control module
²Lower drive unit assembly
²Flex drive assembly
²Wire harness and track
²Lower drive unit track and rack assembly
²Full open switch
²B-pillar switch
²Overhead console switch
²Key fob switches (Fig. 1)
²Pawl switch
²Ratchet switch
²Child lockout and handle switchesEach power sliding door has its own door control
module, located in the center of the door behind the
door trim panel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELEC-
TRONIC CONTROL MODULES/DOOR CONTROL
MODULE - DESCRIPTION) The power sliding door
motor is located in the front portion of the door, on
the inner door panel sheet metal. The latch assembly
is located in the rear of the power sliding door, near
the body line. The lower drive unit is attached to the
lower door hinge. The flex drive assembly connects
the door motor to the lower drive unit. The wire har-
ness and track and the lower drive unit track are vis-
ible with the door open in the lower door sill area.
The power sliding door full open switch is located
under the lower drive unit and is part of the hold
open latch assembly. The pawl, ratchet, handle and
child lockout switches are all located on the power
sliding door latch assembly. The B-pillar switch is an
open and close command switch located on the inte-
rior B-pillar trim. The overhead console switch, is an
open and close command switch located in the vehi-
cle's overhead console.
Software technology has enabled the power sliding
door control module to detect resistance to door
8N - 40 POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEMRS

travel. This allows the power sliding door to stop and
reverse direction any time an obstruction is felt or
any of the command switches are operated (while
closing only). Battery voltage is supplied to the power
sliding door system through a 40 amp fuse, located in
the Integrated Power Module (IPM) assembly. The
child lockout switch prevents children from opening
or actuating the power sliding door system when
desired. In the unlikely event that the power sliding
door system develops a fault, the power sliding door
can still be operated manually from the interior or
exterior door handle, just like a standard manual
sliding door.
The power sliding door control module communi-
cates on the Programmable Communication Interface
(PCI) Data Bus Circuit. Therefore, the power sliding
door control module can generate and store its own
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). A diagnostic scan
tool, such as the DRB IIItis used to read and diag-
nose these trouble codes.
NOTE: It may be possible to generate Sliding Door
Diagnostic Trouble Codes during normal power
sliding door operation. Refer to the Body Diagnos-
tic Manual for a complete list of diagnostic routines.
For additional information, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER DOORS - OPERATION). Refer to the
appropriate wiring information for complete circuit
schematic or connector pin-out information.WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS IN POWER SLIDING DOOR OPER-
ATION BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SERVICE OF
THE POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM OR COMPO-
NENTS.
OPERATION
With the push of a power sliding door open/close
command switch (key fob, overhead console or B-pil-
lar mounted) a signal is sent out to the Body Control
Module (BCM). The BCM then sends a signal out on
the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
Data Bus circuit to the power sliding door module.
The power sliding door module then signals the
power sliding door latch to release the door to the
unlatched and movable position. The motor then
starts an open cycle.
During the door cycle, if the power sliding door
module detects sufficient resistance to door travel,
such as an obstruction in the door's path, the power
sliding door module will immediately stop door move-
ment and reverse door travel to the full open or
closed position. The ability for the power sliding door
module to detect resistance to door travel is accom-
plished by hall effect sensors detecting the door
motor speed.
The power sliding door control module has the abil-
ity to learn. Anytime a door is opened or closed using
the power sliding door system the module learns
from its cycle. If a replacement power sliding door
component is installed or a door adjustment is made,
the module must re-learn the effort required to open
or close the door. A learn cycle can be performed with
a complete cycle of the door, using any one of the
command switches or with the DRB IIIt, or equiva-
lent scan tool. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
DOORS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - LEARN
CYCLE) for detailed instructions.
The power sliding door system is designed with a
number of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are
necessary for safety and/or feasibility of the power
sliding door system. The power sliding door system
inhibitors are:
²The power sliding door must be in thefullopen
or closed position in order for the power sliding door
system to start a cycle. If the door is not in this posi-
tion (based on the input from the full open, pawl or
ratchet switches) the door control module will not
respond to command switch inputs.
²The transmission must be inpark or neutral
in order for the power sliding door system to start a
cycle.
²The child lockout switch must be in the
ªUNLOCKEDº position in order for the power sliding
door systems B-pillar switches to function.
