GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Memory Seat and Mirrors system is available only
on Town and Country (Luxury Class) vehicles.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit
information and component locations. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for addi-
tional diagnostic information.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module) is
mounted under the driver's seat, on the inboard
upper track with Torx head screws. The MSM Mod-
ule provides the driver with an adjustable seat,
recliner, and power side view mirror positioning con-
troller that remembers stored positions and will
recall those positions on command.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module reads all seat and
recliner switch inputs and operates the seat and
recliner motors in response to switch actuation. The
MSM Module monitors position sensing potentiome-
ters (mounted on the motors) for seat and recliner
positioning.
The MSM Module operates the power side view
mirror motors through solid state drivers (electronic
switches) in the recall mode only, and follows the
glass face position by means of rheostats built into
the motor pack assembly of the mirrors. Normal elec-
trical operation of the mirrors is accomplished by
actuation of the power mirror switch.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module monitors the mem-
ory switches and has the capability to store desired
positions in non-volatile memory in response to a valid
input sequence. Refer to Memory Selector Switches (1,
2, and S) and Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Data Link.
The memory seat/mirror module also can activate the
previously described motors in response to a recall
request from an individual memory switch.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module monitors a data
link between the RKE receiver and the Body Control
Module (BCM) and will respond to stored information
or modify stored information when requested by a
valid data stream.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module is connected to
the system through a seat wiring harness that inter-
faces will all of the components within the seat struc-
ture, and with electrical distribution wiring harness
connections to the non-seat mounted components.
The module operates the seat and recliner motors
through relays: four dedicated to track forward/rear-
ward, track front up/down, track rear up/down, and
recliner forward/rearward. A fifth relay controls the
direction of operation of those motors.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
POWER SIDE VIEW MIRROR POSITION SENSING
The mirror switch on the instrument panel oper-
ates the outside rear view mirrors independently of
the memory seat/mirror module. The module acti-
vates the mirror motors only when in its recall mode.
The side view mirrors have position sensing rheo-
stats built into each side view mirror vertical and
horizontal motor assembly. These rheostats provide a
sense voltage to the memory seat/mirror module that
indicates where the mirror is moving to or where its
position is at when the module is activated but the
mirror motor is not moving.
MEMORY SELECTOR SWITCHES
The memory selector switches are mounted on the
driver's door trim panel within easy reach of the
driver. They provide a means to set or recall either of
NSPOWER SEATS 8R - 3

two positions of seat and recliner, and the side view
mirrors as chosen by the driver.
The inputs from these switches to the memory
seat/mirror module is a ground level signal.
(1) Adjust the seat, recliner and side view mirrors
to the desired position.
(2)
Press momentarily and release memory switch S.
(3) Press momentarily and release memory switch
1 or 2. Do NOT press any switches for 10 seconds.
(4) To program the second driver's position, follow
the above sequence.
(5) To recall either of the programmed positions
momentarily press and release either memory selec-
tor switch 1 or 2.
DEFINITION OF: MOMENTARILY AND
RELEASE
The memory seat/mirror module has switch input
timing requirements of a minimum press momen-
tarily time of 250 milliseconds followed by a maxi-
mum hold time of 5 seconds, followed by a maximum
release time between steps of 5 seconds that must be
met for proper operation of the system.
SEAT AND RECLINER SWITCHES
The seat and recliner switch assembly is mounted
outboard on the seat side-shield. Press and hold the
desired seat or recliner switch to effect movement.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module) will
drive a maximum of 2 motors at a time in a given
direction. If conflicting directions are requested, the
priority for response will be as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward
²Seat Front Down
²Seat Rear Down
²Recliner Rearward
²Seat Track Forward
²Seat Front Up
²Seat Rear Up
²Recliner Forward
The inputs from these switches to the MSM Mod-
ule is a current limited battery source fed by the
MSM Module. This protects the MSM Module printed
circuit board traces from acting as fuses. All of these
switch contact inputs to the module are normally
closed to ground, except when actuated.
POSITION SENSING SEAT AND RECLINER
POTENTIOMETERS
A potentiometer is mounted to each seat track and
recliner motor end-bell to provide a sense voltage to
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module that will indicate to
the module where the seat track or recliner is posi-
tioned.
This sense voltage is derived from a 5 volt source
provided by the module to the potentiometer. Thesense voltage is input into the module and stored by
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
MEMORY SELECTOR SWITCHES
To test the memory selector switch:
(1) Remove the memory selector switch. Refer to
removal procedure.
(2) Using an ohmmeter check continuity reading
between switch pins. Refer to (Fig. 1) for proper Pin
numbers.
SIDE VIEW MIRROR SWITCH STUCK
The mirror switches in the instrument panel have
normally open contacts when in their inactive state.
The left/right rocker switch has a center-off detent. If
this switch is actuated to either side, it then becomes
connected to the P73/P70, circuits which are the mir-
ror motor common connections. No faults will result
from this action by itself. If one of the other switch
contacts from the round portion of the switch
becomes accidentally closed,It can cause problems
such as both mirrors operating at the same
time in the vertical or horizontal modes.
²Turn ignition switch ON: If two mirror switch
contacts, from the round portion, are stuck in the
closed position, and the left/right portion is actuated
to either side, a mirror motor will become actuated.
This will drive the motor to its stop, where it will
keep ratcheting until a switch contact is released or
the ignition is turned to OFF. Replace the mirror
switch assembly to correct this condition.
²With the ignition switch in the ON or the OFF
position: If only one mirror switch contact is stuck in
the closed position, the mirror motor will not become
actuated. During an ignition switch recall of a driv-

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

er's chosen position, the Memory Seat/Mirror Module
will attempt to drive the mirror motor only if:
²The closed switch contact was the same as the
desired direction
²Until the lack of a signal seen by the module
shuts off the drive to the motor
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module will shut off the
drive to the desired motor. It is possible that a single
stuck contact could place an opposite mirror or direc-
tion into a series connection. This would run the con-
nected motors at approximately half speed. Replace
the mirror switch assembly to correct this condition.
The 25-way connector at the Memory Seat/Mirror
Module (under the driver's seat) and the mirror
mechanization show that both mirrors use the same
functions. The rheostat for position sensing utilizes
the wire from the module to the mirror as both feedand sense line on the same wires, D and F. The
ground return wire, E, stands alone. Refer to (Fig. 2)
and the Mirror Mechanization Table.
The mirror motors for each side use a common con-
nection, B, which becomes automatically connected to
the proper polarity power connection during either
manual (through the mirror switch) or recall
(through the Memory Seat/Mirror Module) modes of
operation.
DIAGNOSTIC MODE

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

ACTIVATION-Press and hold the S and 1 buttons
for 5 seconds to enter diagnostic mode 1. This mode
is exited at the completion of the mode 1 tasks or
upon grounding the RKE input to the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module.
Mode 1 will:
²Clear all soft limits to their default hard limit
values
²Load memory 1 with default settings corre-
sponding to horizontal rearward, front down, rear
down, and recliner rearward positions²Load memory 2 with default settings corre-
sponding to horizontal forward, front up, rear up,
and recliner forward positions
MODE 2
Diagnostic mode 2 provides a way to determine if
the seat/mirror motors and position sensors are con-
nected properly.
ACTIVATION-Press and hold the S and 2 buttons
for 5 seconds to enter diagnostic mode 2. This mode
is exited after 5 seconds of switch inactivity or upon
grounding the RKE input by moving the transmis-
sion out of the PARK position.
Mode 2 will:
²Place the seat and mirror motors at their mid-
point
²When a single axis of seat or mirror motion is
requested by pressing a switch, the corresponding
motor is energized. This tests switch input and motor
output
²When the switch is released, the motor will
automatically return to its original position. If the
corresponding sensor is out of range, then the motor
will not return to its original position. This tests the
integrity of the sensors and motor outputs. Refer to
(Fig. 3), (Fig. 4), (Fig. 5) and (Fig. 6) for module con-
nector call outs.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Power to both driver and passenger seats, as well
as power door locks, rear blower, and front fog lamps
(if so equipped), is provided by the A3 circuit through
a 40 amp MAXI-fuse in the Power Distribution Cen-
ter (PDC) under the hood. If all of these devices are
nonfunctional, replace the MAXI-fuse. If the new
MAXI-fuse blows immediately, correct the wiring
short to Ground that could be on any of those afore-
mentioned loads before proceeding further.
Once the power is back ON, if the power seats still
do not work, check the 30 amp circuit breaker that is
located in the driver's seat wiring harness approxi-
mately 10 inches from the 4-way connector. The
power feed circuit to the 30 amp circuit breaker is 14
ga. A3 RD/WT.
Following the 30 amp circuit breaker is a 14 ga.
wire designated as F35 RD that provides power into
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module and is double
crimped with a 14 ga. F35A RD that provides power
to the passenger seat through the 4-way connector.If the power door locks, rear blower, and front fog
lamps (if so equipped) are functional and the seats
are both nonfunctional, repair/replace the open wir-
ing and/or circuit breaker in the driver's seat harness
to correct the condition.
Ensure that the 12 ga. ground wire Z1 BK from
the electrical distribution wiring ground splice into
the 4-way connector is providing ground. The Z1 BK
is double crimped at the seat harness side of the
4-way connector taking a 14 ga. Z1 BK into the
10-way connector (cavity 7) 14 ga. This double crimp
carries a 20 ga. Z1A BK to cavity 3 of the power seat
switch 10-way. If the passenger power seat is func-
tional, and the driver's seat is nonfunctional examine
the circuit F35 RD from the double crimped circuit
breaker connector into the 10-way connector cavity 8
of the control module for continuity. Repair or replace
as necessary. If the driver's seat is still nonfunc-
tional, use a multi-function meter to check the P9 RD
20 ga. circuit from the control module 21-way connec-
tor (cavity 11) to the power seat switch 10-way con-

nector (cavity 5)This is a low current battery
feed from the control module that will not illu-
minate a test lamp.
During shipping of the vehicle, an M1 circuit 10
amp fuse (labeled IOD) is temporarily removed from
the PDC in the engine compartment to eliminate
unnecessary battery depletion. However, this fused
circuit being open (that feeds through the electrical
distribution wiring to cavity 16 of the 25-way connec-
tor) will not stop manual seat actuations from taking
place (only recall mode requests) during shipping.
(1) If the memory seat/mirror module does not
respond with a relay click to any seat switch input
(as well as the desired motion) when actuated, pro-
ceed with the following analysis:²Verify power ON F35 and ground Z1 into the
system as indicated above.
²Verify all connectors are mated with the memory
seat/mirror module.
²Place the vehicle gear shift lever in any position
except PARK (causes the Memory Seat/Mirror Mod-
ule to wake-up and provide a position sense voltage
to the seat motor potentiometers and the mirror
rheostat(s). This voltage can be checked at the appro-
priate cavities of the 21 and 25-way connectors.
²Verify the switch connector is mated with the
seat switch on the inside of the outboard side-shield.
²Verify battery voltage at the P9 circuit refer-
enced to the Z1A ground reference (cavity 1) of the
seat switch. If P9 low current battery is not available

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

coming from the module, replace the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module.
²If P9 low current battery is present at (cavity 5)
referenced to ground Z1 (cavity 1) of the seat switch,
verify the presence of the P9 voltage at the switch
outputs. If there is no output voltage from the
switch, replace the switch.
²If P9 voltage is present at the output of the
switch, but there is no reaction from the memory
seat/mirror module, verify that the P9 voltage is
present at the appropriate 21-way connector pins
into the module. If the P9 voltage is not present at
the 21-way connector, repair or replace the seat wir-
ing harness. If the verification check of the seat wir-
ing harness is correct, replace the control module.
(2) If the control module does not respond with a
relay click to a specific seat switch when actuated,
verify the continuity of the particular circuit between
the seat switch and the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
If the P9 voltage is present at the correct input of the
21-way connector of the module when the switch is
actuated, but there is no response by the module,
replace the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
(3) If the Memory Seat/Mirror Module responds
with a relay click when a seat switch is actuated for
a given direction, but there is no reaction from a seat
or recliner motor relating to that switch input, dis-
connect the 10-way connector from the control mod-
ule. Jumper the battery and ground from cavities 8
and 7 of the seat harness 10-way connector to the
proper cavities for the seat or recliner motor in ques-
tion and direction of travel desired. If the motor oper-
ates, replace the control module. If the motor does
not operate, verify continuity of the wiring into the
motor 2-way connector. Repair or replace the wiring
as necessary. If the wiring has continuity, and the
motor will not operate when fed directly, replace the
track assembly, since the motor/transmission combi-
nations are not designed to be serviced on an individ-
ual basis.
SEAT AND RECLINER POSITION SENSING
Seat and recliner position sense ground reference
circuit P28 BR/RD feed is from the memory seat/mir-
ror module (cavity 10) 21-way connector to each of
the position sense connectors.
Seat and recliner position sense +5 volt feed circuit
P29 BR/WT feed is from the memory seat/mirror
module (cavity 20) 21-way connector to each of the
position sense connectors.
To test for the presence of a sense voltage, a volt
meter must be used as follows:
²Connect the negative probe to the P28 circuit
(cavity 10) of the 21-way connector.
²Connect the positive probe to the P29 circuit
(cavity 20) of the 21-way connector and verify a volt-age reading between 3.5 and 5 volts when a seat or
recliner switch is activated.An internal timer in
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module)
regulates the length of time this voltage stays
active i.e., 3 seconds from the time that the
switch was activated, unless the switch is held
or while the transmission is out of PARK.If the
voltage is less than 3.5, there is a fault in the system
that is drawing it down. To troubleshoot this circuit,
disconnect the 25-way connector from the MSM Mod-
ule (this removes all of the vehicle mirror circuitry).
If the voltage is still less than 3.5, disconnect each of
the position sense connectors from each of the
motors. If the voltage remains less than 3.5, replace
the MSM Module. If the voltage increases when a
motor is disconnected from the system, determine if
the fault is in the wiring or the motor assembly.
Repair or replace the wire harness assembly as
needed. If the fault is in the motor position sensing
potentiometer, replace the track assembly.
²The potentiometers built onto the motor end-bell
provide voltages to the MSM Module through the
21-way connector, which change as follows, corre-
sponding to the given seat actuations. Refer to Seat
Actuations Table.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) DATA LINK
The memory seat/mirror module interfaces with
the RKE via a serial data link (single wire). The pro-
gramming sequence to relate an RKE transmitter to
the chosen seat, recliner and side view mirror posi-
tions consists of the following steps:
(1) Adjust the seat, recliner and side view mirrors
to the desired position.
(2) Press momentarily and release memory switch
S.
(3) Press momentarily and release memory switch
1or2.
(4) Press momentarily and release a LOCK button
on an RKE transmitter.
(5) To program the second driver's position, follow
the previous sequence with a second transmitter.
(6) To recall either of the programmed positions
with an RKE transmitter, press momentarily and
release an UNLOCK button on one of the pro-
grammed RKE transmitters.An unprogrammed
RKE transmitter will have no effect on the sys-
tem.
(7) The RKE receiver uses the serial data link to
notify the module of a request from a programmed
transmitter, that an UNLOCK button has been
pressed. This UNLOCK request (from a transmitter
associated with either switch 1 or 2) will activate the
NSPOWER SEATS 8R - 9
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

Memory Seat/Mirror Module in the recall mode to
the values that are stored in the module's memory.
(8) Whenever the module receives a specific data
stream from the RKE receiver that involves the pro-
gramming of a new transmitter into the RKE
receiver, the module will clear its nonvolatile memory
seat and recliner values for both memory 1 and 2
and will default to a location consisting of seat track
rearward, seat vertical risers down, and recliner for-
ward in both memory 1 and 2. After this has
occurred, the customer must reprogram their desired
seat and mirror positions.
(9) A recall is possible any time that the vehicle
transmission is in PARK. This condition is monitored
by the Body Control Module (BCM).
(10) A ground placed on the serial data link by the
BCM whenever that the transmission is not in
PARK, will inhibit a recall request from the door
mounted memory switch 1 or 2 or the RKE receiver
that was initiated by either of the validly pro-
grammed transmitters.
NOTE: The module will abort a recall if the trans-
mission is moved out of the PARK position or if any
seat, recliner or memory switch is pressed.REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
