Power Seats

There are three reversible motors that operate the power seats. The front and back of a seat are operated by different motors. They can be raised or lowered independently of each other. When the entire seat switch is pushed to the "UP" or "DOWN" position, both motors run to move the front and back of the seat at the same time.

The forward-back motor is operated by the entire seat switch. When it is held in the "FORWARD" position, battery voltage is applied through the switch contacts to the forward-back motor. The motor is grounded through the contact of the "BACK" position switch to ground. The motor runs to drive the seat forward until the switch is released.

The "BACK" position works similar to the "FORWARD" position except the voltage to the motor is reversed. This reversed polarity causes the motor to run in the opposite direction and drive the seat backward.

The front and rear height motors work in a similar way V the front or rear tilt switch is operated.

To raise the entire seat, the entire seat switch is held in the "UP" position. This applies battery voltage to both the front height and rear height motors. The motors are grounded through the switches that were not operated. Both motors run to drive the entire seat up. A similar action occurs to move the entire seat down.

Each motor contains an electronic circuit breaker (PTC). It resets only after voltage is removed from the motor.
