THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT
FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000003775441
The third row power folding seat system is capable of allowing a user to fold up or down either the left or right
third row seat using a set of front or rear mounted switches.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDIN G SEAT CONTROL UNIT
The third row power folding seat control unit is located in the control
unit/cross beam assembly underneath the LH third row seat. It
receives signals from the third row power folding seat switches, TCM
and the Hall effect switches mounted in the LH and RH seat motors.
The control unit has self-diagnosis capability through chime codes
and may be accessed by turning the ignition switch ON and OFF
three times. The control unit drives the LH and RH seat motors to
fold them up and down.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT SWITCH
The third row power folding seat switches are located in pairs on the
luggage side finisher RH. A switch must be held in order for the seat
to move.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT MOTORS
The third row power folding seat motors are located in the seat
motor/hinge assembly. There are two motors, one for LH and one
for RH seat folding operations. Power and ground are provided to
the motors by the third row power fo lding seat control unit. The con-
trol unit reverses polarity to the motors to raise or lower the seat.
The motors also contain Hall effe ct switches. These switches send
signals back to the control unit which help it determine fully open and
closed positions.
