PASSENGER SEAT HEATER SWITCH (Continued)
Both switches provide separate resistor multi-
plexed hard wire inputs to the Heated Seat Module
to indicate the selected mode. The Heated Seat Mod-
ule responds to the heated seat switch status mes-
sages by controlling the output to the seat heater
elements of the selected seat. The Low heat position
set point is about 36° C (97° F), and the High heat
position set point is about 41° C (105° F).
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - PASSENGER SEAT
