Diagnostic Fault Information





Circuit/System Description

The memory seat module (MSM) monitors the current supplied to the driver seat adjuster motors, recline motor, and the lumbar horizontal motor. It can detect both absolute and differential current levels from the seat motors. Absolute current is the maximum allowable current the module will supply to the motors. A differential current mismatch occurs when the current supplied to the seat motors does not match the current returning from the motors.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The driver seat adjuster motors, recline motor, or the lumbar horizontal motor must be active.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B1335 0B

The differential current measured through the high and low side of the power rail is within tolerance of each other, but the absolute current or an over-current has exceeded the maximum value.

B1335 42

This DTC will set if the module calibration is not programmed.

B1335 4B

This DTC will set if the module calibration is out of range.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

All movement related to the seat cushion and recline motors is aborted.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The current DTC will clear and set the code to history, 3 seconds after no motor movement is requested or the current is no longer mismatched, and the power mode changes to OFF then back to ACC or RUN.
* The history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

The scan tool may reference the Memory Seat Module (MSM) as the Driver Position Module.

Circuit/System Testing

B1335 0B
1. Ignition ON, use a scan tool to clear the current and history diagnostic trouble code.
2. Determine which motor set this DTC by operating the motors listed below one at a time in both directions. Check for the DTC to set between each motor test.

* Driver seat front vertical motor
* Driver seat rear vertical motor
* Driver seat horizontal motor
* Driver seat recline motor
* Driver seat lumbar horizontal motor

3. Clear the diagnostic trouble code.
4. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate seat or lumbar motor for which the DTC set.
5. Ignition ON, operate the motor adjuster switch in both directions. DTC B1335 0B should not set.

If the DTC sets, test for a short between the appropriate motor control circuits listed below. If the circuits test normal, replace the MSM.

* Driver seat front vertical motor terminal 2 X1 and terminal 5 X1
* Driver seat horizontal motor terminal 3 X1 and terminal 6 X1
* Driver seat rear vertical motor terminal 1 X1 and terminal 4 X1
* Driver seat recline motor terminal A and terminal B X1
* Driver seat lumbar horizontal motor terminal A and terminal B

6. Test the appropriate control circuits listed below for a high resistance.

* Driver seat front vertical motor terminal 2 X1 and terminal 5 X1
* Driver seat horizontal motor terminal 3 X1 and terminal 6 X1
* Driver seat rear vertical motor terminal 1 X1 and terminal 4 X1
* Driver seat recline motor terminal A and terminal B X1
* Driver seat lumbar horizontal motor terminal A and terminal B

7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the appropriate seat or lumbar motor.

B1335 42 or B1335 4B

If either DTC is set history or current, replace the MSM.
