Power Seat Position Is Not Memorized





SEAT: FRONT POWER SEAT CONTROL SYSTEM (w/ Memory): Power Seat Position is not Memorized
- Power Seat Position is not Memorized

DESCRIPTION

The main body ECU receives seat memory switch signals from the outer mirror control ECU (driver side) via CAN. If the SET switch is being pressed when one of the M1 or M2 switches is pressed, or if one of the M1 or M2 switches is pressed within 3 seconds of pressing the SET switch, the main body ECU sends a memory request signal to the front power seat switch LH. After receiving the request signal, the front power seat switch LH memorizes location data of each motor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
* The seat position will not be recorded if the SET switch and 2 or more of the seat memory switches (for example, M1 switch and M2 switch) are pressed simultaneously.
* If a memorizing operation has failed, release all switches. The seat memory function does not operate unless the switches are released.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

(a) Use the Techstream to check if the CAN communication system is functioning normally How to Proceed With Troubleshooting.

OK:

CAN communication DTC is not output.

NG -- GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM CAN Communication System
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK POWER SEAT CONTROL FUNCTION

(a) Check that each function of the power seat operates normally by using the front power seat switch LH Operation Check.

OK:
