Circuit/System Verification
Verify the type of vehicle and the heated seat system for which the DTC set.
If the DTC set in a vehicle equipped with memory, refer to Circuit/System Testing below.
If the DTC set in a hybrid vehicle without memory, refer to DTC B2508 or B2509 (HP2 w/o memory).
If the DTC set in a non-hybrid vehicle without memory, refer to DTC B2508 or B2509 (Dealer installed).
If the DTC set in the rear heated seat module, refer to DTC B2508 or B2509 (Rear seat).
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1, X4 harness connectors at the MSM.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal 14 X1 and ground.
瀚慖f not the specified value, test the control circuits listed below for a short to ground:
* Driver seat cushion and back element terminal 14 X1
* Driver seat cushion element terminal 11 X1
* Driver seat back element terminal 1 X1
3. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal 6 X1 and ground.
瀚慖f not the specified value, test the control circuits listed below for a short to ground:
* Passenger seat cushion and back element terminal 6 X1
* Passenger seat cushion element terminal 14 X4
* Passenger seat back element terminal 4 X1
4. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the supply voltage circuit terminal 14 X1 and ground.
