DESCRIPTION





The power seat system allows the driver to electrically adjust the seating position using the power seat switch assembly (2) located on the outboard seat cushion side shield (3).





A driver side six-way power seat is available on this vehicle. The power seat includes a six-way adjustable seat cushion track. The six-way power seat can be adjusted back up, back down, front up, front down, forward and rearward. The power seat system is also available with the heated seat option, Heated Seats - Description for additional information on the heated seats.

The power seat adjuster is made up of the upper and lower power seat adjuster assemblies. The upper power seat adjuster (1) contains two reversible motors that are connected to worm-drive gearboxes that move the seat adjusters through screw-type drive units. These motors control the front seat tilt, rear seat tilt and when activated together the height of the driver seat. The lower power seat adjuster (2) contains one reversible motor that is connected to a worm-drive gearbox that moves the seat adjuster through a screw-type drive unit. This motor is responsible for the fore and aft movement of the driver seat. Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit breakers may damaged the motors.
