WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS IN POWER SLIDING DOOR OPER-
ATION BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SERVICE OF
POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM OR COMPO-
NENTS.
OPERATION
With the push of a power sliding door open/close
command switch (key fob, overhead console or B-pil-
lar mounted) a signal is sent out to the Body Control
Module (BCM). The BCM then sends a signal out on
the PCI Data Bus circuit (J1850) to the power sliding
door module. The power sliding door module then
signals the power sliding door latch to release the
door to the unlatched and movable position. The
motor then starts an open cycle.
During the door open cycle, if the power sliding
door module detects sufficient resistance to doortravel, such as an obstruction in the door's path, the
power sliding door module will immediately stop door
movement and reverse door travel to the full open or
closed position. The ability for the power sliding door
module to detect resistance to door travel is accom-
plished by hall effect sensors and the door motor
speed.
The power sliding door control module has the abil-
ity to learn. Anytime a door is opened or closed using
the power sliding door system the module learns
from its cycle. If a replacement power sliding door
component is installed or a door adjustment is made,
the module must re-learn the effort required to open
or close the door. A learn cycle can be performed with
a Diagnostic Scan Tool, such as the DRB IIIt, or with
a complete cycle of the door, using any one of the
command switches. Refer to Standard Procedures in
this section for detailed instructions.
The power sliding door system is designed with a
number of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are
necessary for safety and/or feasibility of the power
sliding door system. See the power sliding door sys-
tem inhibitors noted below:
POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM INHIBITORS
²The power sliding door must be in thefullopen
or closed position in order for the power sliding door
system to start a cycle. If the door is not in this posi-
tion (based on the input from the full open, pawl or
ratchet switches) the door control module will not
respond to command switch inputs.
²The vehicles transmission must be inpark or
neutralin order for the power sliding door system to
start a cycle.
²The vehicles child lockout switch must be in the
ªUNLOCKEDº position in order for the power sliding
door systems B-pillar switches to function.
²If multiple obstacles are detected during the
same power open or close cycle the power sliding
door may go into full manual mode.
²If severe Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are
stored in the power sliding door control module the
power sliding door may go into full manual mode.
²Due to the high pressure created in the passen-
ger compartment with the blower motor on high, the
power sliding door may not complete a power close
cycle unless a window is cracked, allowing the pres-
sure to escape. This situation will only be experi-
enced on some vehicles, or vehicles with brand new
side door weather seals installed. Refer to the Side
Door Adjustment procedure in the Standard Proce-
dures section of this group.
²The vehicles fuel tank filler door must be in the
closed position. Due to the sliding door interference
with the open fuel tank filler door, mechanical link-
age prevents the side door from opening and striking

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SLIDING
DOOR SYSTEM
The power opening and closing power sliding door
system is a complex system containing many compo-
nents and modules. In order to obtain conclusive
testing, the Programmable Communications Interface
(J1850) data bus network and all of the electronic
modules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs
from the power sliding door system must be checked.
The power sliding door system was designed to be
diagnosed with an appropriate diagnostic scan tool,
such as the DRB IIIt. The most reliable, efficient,
and accurate means to diagnose the power sliding
door system requires the use of a DRB IIItscan tool
and the proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual.
The DRB IIItcan be used to observe various switch
statuses throughout the power sliding door system to
help the technician diagnose a defective switch or
component. The DRB IIItcan also be used to actuate
various components throughout the power sliding
door system to help the technician diagnose a defec-
tive component.
Before any testing of the power sliding door system
is attempted, the battery should be fully charged, all
built-in power sliding door system inhibitors read
and understood (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
DOORS - OPERATION) and all wire harness and
ground connections inspected around the affected
areas on the vehicle.
The following are quick reference diagnostic tables
to help when diagnosing and testing the power slid-
ing door system.

ered. This defeats the day-detect logic. If OK, go to
Step 8. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror unit.
(8) With the mirror darkened, place the transmis-
sion gear selector lever in the Reverse position. The
automatic day/night mirror should return to its nor-
mal reflectance. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror
unit.
Bench testing both mirrors can be done, of care is
exercised. For an inside mirror, the pin closest to he
mount is 12V (+), the next is 12V (-). The third is
reverse override. The fourth is outside mirror (+),
and the fifth is outside mirror (-).Do not apply 12
volts to the fourth and fifth pins.With 12 volts
on pins 1 and 2, the mirror can be tested by blocking
the rear sensor and shining a light into the forward
sensor. For an outside mirror, there is a 2±pin con-
nector. Applying 1.2 volts will cause the mirror to
dim. If the mirror does not dim, the entire glass
assembly can be replaced just as it is when the glass
is broken.
WARNING: Do not apply 12 volts to the outside mir-
ror. Damage to the mirror will result.
POWER FOLDAWAY MIRROR
SWITCH - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
These vehicles may be equipped with Power Fold-
away Mirrors. This feature allows both the driver
and passenger side view mirrors to fold inward
(retract) on demand. The vehicle has an additional
switch located on the steering column that controls
the folding function of the mirror assembly (Fig. 2).
The fold-away side view mirror is attached to the
vehicle's door in the same manner as mirrors without
the fold-away option. The fold-away mirrors unique
option is the internal motor which allows the mirrors
to fold inward on demand. The fold-away mirror
motor is not serviceable separately and if a motor is
found to be faulty the entire side view mirror must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When the mirror retract switch is depressed, both
of the side view mirrors will fold inward, Thus mak-
ing the overall width of the vehicle the smallest pos-
sible. This can be helpful were parking space is a
absolute minimum.
When the driver's door is opened, only the driver's
door mirror will unfold. If the passenger door is
opened, both mirrors will unfold.
The power fold away mirror system consists of the
following components: mirror switch, side view mir-ror, relay, wires and fuse. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information. The wiring information includes
wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair
procedures, details of wire harness routing and
retention, connector pin-out information and location
views for the various wire harness connectors, splices
and grounds.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the upper and lower steering column
shroud (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN/LOWER

POWER SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The power seat system option allows the driver
and front seat passenger to electrically adjust their
seating positions for optimum control and comfort
using the power seat switches located on the out-
board seat cushion side shield of each front seat. The
driver side power front seat can be adjusted in eight
different directions: up, down, front up, front down,
rear up, rear down, forward, rearward and recliner
forward and rearward. The passenger side power
front seat can be adjusted in four different directions:
forward, rearward and recliner forward and rear-
ward.
The power seat system receives battery current
through a 40 amp fuse in the Intelligent Power Mod-
ule and a 30 amp circuit breaker under the seat so
that the power seats remain operational, regardless
of the ignition switch position.WARNING: SOME VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH
SEATBACK MOUNTED AIRBAGS (Fig. 1). BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO DIAGNOSE OR SERVICE ANY
SEAT OR POWER SEAT SYSTEM COMPONENT
YOU MUST FIRST DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE
BATTERY NEGATIVE CABLE. THEN WAIT TWO MIN-
UTES FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DIS-
CHARGE BEFORE FURTHER SYSTEM SERVICE.
THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE
AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD
RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
A eight-way driver side power seat is standard on
highline models and optional on others. This option
includes a six-way adjustable seat cushion track and
a two-way power seat back.
The eight-way driver side power seat is also avail-
able with the heated seat and/or memory seat system
that automatically positions the power seat for two
different drivers. Refer toHeated Seatsfor more
information on the heated seat option. Refer to
Description - Memory Systemin this section for

AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) If the vehicle is equipped with the memory sys-
tem and the driver side power seat exhibits a inter-
rupted or jerky motion, there is a possibility that the
wires leading from the memory seat module to the
memory seat motor are mis-wired. To check the con-
cern, obtain a DRBIIItscan tool and energize each
axis one at a time. If any axis stops in approximately
2 seconds (without hitting the end of travel), the
feedback for that axis may have an open, short or be
mis-wired. Check the wiring to that axis (module to
motor). Fix any wiring problems and retry that axis.
(2) If any power seat is not operational in any
direction, check the power seat circuit breaker,
located under the trailing edge of the driver side
power seat. Refer to the Power Distribution section of
this service manual for the circuit breaker diagnosis
and testing procedure.
(3) If the power seat circuit breaker is OK, check
for proper battery and ground connections at the
power seat switch and/or memory seat module. Fix
any wiring problems and retry.
(4) Check the power seat system wire harness con-
nections and pins to ensure proper circuit continuity
and ground paths. For complete circuit diagrams,
refer toWiring Diagrams.
(5) With the dome lamp on, apply the power seat
switch in the direction of the failure. If the dome
lamp dims, the seat may be jamming. Check under
and behind the seat for binding or obstructions. If
the dome lamp does not dim, proceed with testing of
the individual components and circuits in the power
seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY SYSTEM
In order to obtain conclusive testing of the memory
system, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the memory system components must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the memory system requires the use of a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRB IIItscan tool can provideconfirmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that
all of the electronic modules are sending and receiv-
ing the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and
that the memory system is receiving the proper hard
wired inputs and relaying the proper hard wired out-
puts to perform its functions.
(1) If the driver power seat exhibits a interrupted
or jerky motion, there is a possibility that the wires
leading from the memory seat module to the memory
seat motor are mis-wired. To check the concern,
obtain a DRB IIItscan tool and energize each axis
one at a time. If any axis stops in approximately 2
seconds (without hitting the end of travel), the feed-
back for that axis may have an open, short or be mis-
wired. Check the wiring to that axis (module to
motor). Fix any wiring problems and retry that axis.
Refer to Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit sche-
matic or connector pin-out information.
DRIVER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a driver side power seat
utilize an eight-way power seat switch. This eight-
way power seat switch features two knobs ganged
together on the outboard seat cushion side shield
(Fig. 2).
The switch is secured to the back of the seat cush-
ion side shield with two screws. However, the control

(3) Reconnect the power seat wire harness connec-
tor to the power seat switch connector receptacle.
(4) Position the outboard seat cushion side shield
onto the seat cushion frame
(5) Install and tighten the screws that secure the
outboard seat cushion side shield to the seat cushion
frame. Tighten the screws to 1.5 N´m (14 in. lbs.).
(6) Install the switch knobs on the switch control
levers, if equipped.
(7) Reconnect the battery negative cable.
DRIVER POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The eight-way driver side power seat option
includes a electrically operated power seat track
located under the driver side front seat. The front
power seat track on the driver side of the vehicle also
provides the mounting location for the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module (MSMM). The power seat circuit
breakers are mounted on the rear of the driver side
power seat track, just behind the seat rear trim
panel. The lower half of the power seat track is
secured to the floor panel via four studs and nuts
that must be accessed from the underside of the vehi-
cle. Four bolts secure the bottom of the seat cushion
pan to the upper half of the power seat track unit.
Four additional bolts secure the seat back frame to
the power seat track unit.
The power seat track unit includes four reversible
electric motors that are secured to the upper half of
the track unit. Each motor moves the seat adjuster
through a combination of worm-drive gearboxes and
screw-type drive units. Each of the four power seat
track motors used on models equipped with the
optional memory system incorporates a position
potentiometer integral to the motor assembly, which
electronically monitors the motor position. This
enables the memory system to function by referenc-
ing the motor positions programmed into the memory
seat/mirror module.
The front and rear of the seat are operated by two
separate vertical adjustment motors. These motors
can be operated independently of each other, tilting
the entire seat assembly forward or rearward; or,
they can be operated in unison by selecting the
proper power seat switch functions, which will raise
or lower the entire seat assembly. A third motor is
the horizontal adjustment motor, which moves the
seat track in the forward and rearward directions.
The forth motor is the recliner adjustment motor,
which moves the seat back in the forward and rear-
ward directions.
The power seat track unit cannot be repaired, and
is serviced only as a complete unit. If any componentin this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire power
seat track unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the driver side 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 direction 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.
