B1E49 - 3rd Row Seat Right Backrest Position Sensor Circuit Low
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.
• When Monitored: Whenever the seat motor is activated.
• Set Condition: If sensor voltage is below a specified range this DTC will set.
Test Step 1 - Test For Intermittent Condition
• Turn the ignition ON.
• With the scan tool, erase all DTCs.
• Move the seat recliner switch in both positions three times.
• With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
• Go to Test Step 2 => [ Test Step 2 - Check the Right Seat Back Position Sensor Supply Circuit
Voltage ]
No
• The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.
