For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

- When Monitored:
Whenever the seat motor is activated.

- Set Condition:
If the Memory Seat Module does not detect the rotation of the seat motor this DTC will set. This DTC will only set when the seat switch is moved in the same direction three consecutive times.





1. CHECK FOR RELATED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read DTC's.

Does the scan tool display any seat position sensor DTC's?

Yes

- Diagnose and repair other DTC(s) first. Testing and Inspection.

No

- Go To 2

2. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, record and erase DTC's
3. Move the Seat Switch in the Rear Vertical position three times.
4. With the scan tool, read DTC's.

Does the scan tool display B1D83-SEAT REAR VERTICAL MOTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT PERFORMANCE?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- Perform POWER SEAT SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Power Seat System Verification Test.

3. CHECK THE (G402) DRIVER SEAT REAR VERTICAL POSITION SENSE VOLTAGE




1. Disconnect the Rear Driver Vertical Seat Adjuster Motor.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

2. Move the Seat Switch in the rear vertical position during the next step.
3. Using a 12-volt test light connect one lead to the (G402) Driver Seat Rear Vertical Position Sense circuit and the other lead to Driver Seat Rear Vertical Sensor Ground at the Driver Rear Vertical Seat Adjuster Motor connector.

Does the test light illuminate for approximately two seconds then turn off with the seat switch engaged?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Go To 5

4. CHECK THE DRIVER SEAT REAR VERTICAL UP/DOWN DRIVER VOLTAGE




1. Move the Seat Switch in the rear vertical position during the next step.
2. Using a 12-volt test light connect one lead to the (P111) Driver Seat Rear Vertical Up Driver circuit and the other lead to (P113) Driver Seat Rear Vertical Down Driver circuit at the Rear Driver Vertical Seat Adjuster Motor connector.

Does the test light illuminate with the seat switch engaged?
