Condition

^ Heated/Cooled Seat Indicators Inoperative

^ Or any other driver or passenger door function issue that can be resolved by an ignition cycle. Customers may also comment that a vehicle ignition cycle typically cures the symptoms.

Cause

The cause of these conditions may be due to a software anomaly within the driver and passenger door switches.

Correction

DO NOT REPLACE THE DRIVER DOOR SWITCH OR PASSENGER DOOR SWITCH.

Using SPS and Pass-Thru method, reprogram the driver door switch (DDS) and passenger door switch (PDS) with updated software calibrations. These new service calibrations were released with TIS satellite data update version 2.75 / 2006. As always, make sure your Tech 2(R) is updated with the latest software version.

After the reprogramming is completed, check and clear all DTCs that may have set as a result of the programming process.
