See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the memory switch.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY SWITCH

(1) Remove the memory set switch from the driv-
ers door panel (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS/MEMORY SET SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity on the
memory select switch MUX circuit between the body
control module C2 electrical connector and the mem-
ory switch connector. Continuity should be present, If
OK go to Step 3, If NOT OK repair the open or
shorted MUX circuit as required.
(3) Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity on the
memory select switch RETURN circuit between the
body control module C2 electrical connector and the
memory switch connector. Continuity should be
present, If OK go to Step 4, If NOT OK repair the
open or shorted RETURN circuit as required.
(4) Using an ohmmeter, test the resistances of the
memory switch in each switch position. See the Mem-
ory Switch Test Table. If OK, refer to Diagnosis and
Testing Memory System in this section. If not OK,
replace the faulty memory set switch.

INSTALLATION

(1) Position the memory switch and install and
tighten the two screws that secure the memory
switch to the back of the driver side front door trim
panel switch bezel. Tighten the screws to 2.2 N·m (20
in. lbs.).
(2) Reconnect the memory switch wire harness
connector to the memory switch.
(3) Install the trim panel switch bezel onto the
driver side front door.
(4) Reconnect the battery negative cable.
PASSENGER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with power seats utilize a ten-
way power seat switch. This ten-way power seat
switch features two knobs ganged together on the
outboard seat cushion side shield.
The switch is secured to the back of the seat cush-
ion side shield with two screws. However, the control
knobs for the seat switch unit must be removed
before the seat switch can be removed from the side
shield.
The power seat switch cannot be repaired. If one
switch is damaged or faulty, the entire power seat
switch unit must be replaced.

OPERATION

When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the power seat
track or recliner adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track or
recliner through its drive unit in the selected direc-
tion until the switch is released, or until the travel
limit of the adjuster is reached. When the switch is
moved in the opposite direction, the battery feed and
ground path to the motor are reversed through the
switch contacts. This causes the adjuster motor to
run in the opposite direction.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the adjuster has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motors each contain a
self-resetting circuit breaker to protect them from
overload. However, consecutive or frequent resetting
of the circuit breaker must not be allowed to con-
tinue, or the motor may be damaged. See the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for more information
on the power seat switch functions and the seat
adjusting procedures.
