B2356

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Chart:

Refer to Memory Seats Schematics: Memory Seat Outputs. Electrical Diagrams

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Memory Seat Module (MSM) monitors the seat front height motor position through the seat front height transducer CKT 557 (ORN/BLK). The MSM also sends a reference voltage on CKT 569 (RED) and provides a sensor ground (BLK).

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The DTC will set if the MSM detects that the seat front height sensor output voltage is either too high or too low due to the following conditions:
^ An open circuit
^ A short to ground
^ A short to power
^ A defective seat height transducer

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
^ A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive fault free ignition cycles.
^ Use a scan tool in order to clear history and current DTCs.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
One or more of the following conditions may be the cause of an intermittent failure:
^ A poor connection
^ A break in the wire insulation that exposes the internal wire
^ A wire broken inside the insulation

TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2. This step inspects for current DTCs.
3. This step inspects the wiring between the seat front height transducer and the MSM for open circuits.
4. This step repairs the open(s) in the wiring between the seat front height transducer and the MSM.
5. This step inspects the wiring between the seat front height transducer and the MSM for short(s) to ground.
6. This step repairs the short(s) to ground in the wiring between the seat front height transducer and the MSM.
7. This step verifies proper MSM operation.
8. This step replaces a defective seat front height transducer.
9. This step replaces a defective MSM.
