B2120

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The position sensor that sets this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is either attached to the seat directional motor drive cable or directly to the motor it monitors. It receives a 5 V reference and ground from the memory seat module (MSM). The sensor sends a voltage signal that varies with the movement of the seat through the signal circuit to the MSM. Then based on this voltage signal the MSM determines the position of the seat.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The MSM must be powered and can not have B1982- Battery Voltage High or B1983 Battery Voltage Low set as an active DTC for this DTC to set.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
If the MSM sees the analog input from this sensor as either lower than 0.25 V or higher than 4.75 V, the sensor will be considered out of range and the MSM will set this DTC.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
The MSM disables the memory recall and easy exit/entry action commands of the motor monitored by the sensor. The motor will respond to manual positioning commands.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
The MSM will clear the DTC as an active malfunction when it sees the analog input from this sensor as between 0.25 V and 4.75 V during one cycle of checking the MSM inputs.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
^ All position sensors use common ground and 5 volt reference circuits.
^ If the 5 volt reference circuit is shorted to voltage multiple codes will set.
^ If the 5 volt reference circuit is shorted to ground multiple codes will set.
^ If the sensor ground circuit is open multiple codes will set.
