PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The driver seat module (DSM) is on the controller area network (CAN) communication network. To support several vehicle subsystems, the module permits intermodule and diagnostic tool communications.

The DSM controls the memory power exterior mirrors. This feature allows the driver to program personalized mirror positions. Once the driver has stored a mirror position, the driver can recall the setting by pressing the corresponding memory switch or by using a programmed remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter.

The memory driver seat feature allows the driver to program a personalized seat position that can be recalled using the memory switches or the RKE transmitter.

The adjustable pedals are also controlled by the DSM. This system permits the adjustment of the brake and accelerator pedals using the adjustable pedal switch.
