PASSENGER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center lower bezel (Fig. 7), which is
located near the bottom of the instrument panel cen-
ter stack. The two three-position rocker-type
switches, one switch for each front seat, provide a
resistor multiplexed signal to the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM) through separate hard wired circuits.
Each switch has an Off, Low, and High position so
that both the driver and the front seat passenger can
select a preferred seat heating mode. Each switch
has two Light-Emitting Diodes (LED), one each for
the Low position and the High position, which light
to indicate that the heater for the seat that the
switch controls is turned on. Each switch is also back
lit by a replaceable incandescent bulb.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch unit must be replaced. The
incandescent switch illumination bulb and bulb
holder units are available for service replacement.

This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION). Customer programmable feature
options affecting the power door lock system include:
²Auto Door Locks- Automatically locks all of
the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the vehicle
reaches a speed of about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15
miles-per-hour) with 10% throttle tip-in.
²Auto Unlock on Exit- Automatically unlocks
all of the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the
driver side front door is opened, if the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission gear selector is in the
Park or Neutral positions. This feature is linked to
the Auto Door Locks feature, and will only occur one
time following each Auto Door Lock event.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the standard equipment
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system radio frequency
transmitters. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS - DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY SYSTEM).
The components of the power lock system include:
²Driver Door Module (DDM)
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)
²PCI Bus Messages
²Power Lock Motors
Certain functions and features of the power lock
system rely upon resources shared with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sen-
sor information. This helps to reduce wire harness
complexity, internal controller hardware, and compo-
nent sensor current loads. At the same time, this sys-
tem provides increased reliability, enhanced
diagnostics, and allows the addition of many new fea-
ture capabilities. For proper diagnosis of these elec-
tronic modules or of the PCI data bus network, the
use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diag-
nostic information are required.
The other electronic modules that may affect power
lock system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MOD-
ULE - DESCRIPTION).
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)- (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER
- DESCRIPTION).
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)- (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROLMODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE -
DESCRIPTION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the power lock sys-
tem components to the electrical system of the vehi-
cle. These hard wired circuits are integral to several
wire harnesses, which are routed throughout the
vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the power lock sys-
tem components through the use of a combination of
soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many
different types of wire harness terminal connectors
and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
further details on wire harness routing and reten-
tion, as well as pin-out and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The RKE system allows
the use of a remote battery-powered radio transmit-
ter to control the power lock system. The RKE
receiver operates on non-switched battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC), so that the system remains operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
In addition to Lock and Unlock buttons, the RKE
transmitters are also equipped with a Panic button.
If the Panic button on the RKE transmitter is
depressed, the horn will sound and the exterior lights
will flash on the vehicle for about three minutes, or
until the Panic button is depressed a second time, if
ignition is in the Off position. A vehicle speed of
about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will
also cancel the panic event.
The RKE system can also perform other functions
on this vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS), the
RKE transmitter will arm the VTSS when the Lock
button is depressed, and disarm the VTSS when the
Unlock button is depressed. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY - DESCRIPTION
- VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If the
vehicle is equipped with the optional Memory Sys-
tem, each of the two numbered and color-coded RKE
transmitters can be used to recall the stored driver
side front seat position, both outside power rear view
mirror positions, and the radio station presets for the
two assigned drivers. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYS-
TEM).

POWER LOCKS (Continued)

See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the power lock system.
OPERATION - REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM
The Passenger Door Module (PDM) contains the
RKE system control logic and the RKE receiver.
When the RKE receiver recognizes a Lock, Unlock or
Panic message from a valid RKE transmitter, the
RKE receiver provides that input to the PDM. The
PDM circuitry and programming responds by sending
the proper messages to the other electronic modules
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus.
When an RKE lock message is received, the doors
and the liftgate lock, the interior lighting fades to off,
the horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the exte-
rior lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if the
vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock mes-
sage is received, the driver side front door (or all
doors and the liftgate if this feature is enabled)
unlock, the interior lighting is turned on and, if the
vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed. If the
vehicle is equipped with the Memory System and the
RKE Linked to Memory feature is enabled, the RKE
unlock message also recalls the driver seat, outside
mirror and radio settings assigned to the RKE trans-
mitter that sent the unlock signal.
When an RKE panic message is received, it causes
the exterior lamps (including the headlights) to flash,
and the horn to pulse for about three minutes, or
until a second panic message is received. A vehicle
speed of about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-
hour) will also cancel the panic event.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the RKE system.
OPERATION - LIFTGATE FLIP-UP GLASS
POWER RELEASE SYSTEM
When the liftgate mounted flip-up glass release
switch is depressed, battery current is directed to the
electric release motor that is integral to the flip-up
glass latch located inside the liftgate. When the
release motor is energized the latch releases and the
flip-up glass can be opened. A liftgate flip-up glass
limit switch is integral to the liftgate latch actuator
mechanism. The limit switch automatically enables
or disables the liftgate flip-up glass power release cir-
cuitry, depending upon the position of the liftgate
latch lock mechanism. When the liftgate latch is
unlocked, the limit switch closes and battery current
is available at the release switch. When the liftgatelatch is locked , the limit switch opens, and the
release switch is disabled.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the liftgate flip-up glass power release system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCK
SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power lock
system. However, these tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. In order to
obtain conclusive testing of the power lock system,
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus network and all of the electronic modules
that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the
power lock system components must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the power lock system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide
confirmation 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 power lock motors are being sent the proper
hard wired outputs by the door modules for them to
perform their power lock system functions.
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.
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
As a preliminary diagnosis for the power lock sys-
tem, note the system operation while you actuate
both the Lock and Unlock functions with the power
lock switches and with the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. Then, proceed as follows:
²If the entire power lock system fails to function
with either the power lock switches or the RKE
transmitter, check the fused B(+) fuse in the Power
Distribution Center. If the fuse is OK, proceed to
diagnosis of the door modules. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/
DOOR MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
²If the power lock system functions with both
power lock switches, but not with the RKE transmit-
ter, proceed to diagnosis of the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM).

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) receiver is a
radio frequency unit contained within the Passenger
Door Module (PDM). The PDM also contains the pro-
gram logic circuitry for the RKE system. The PDM is
secured with screws to the back of the trim panel
inside the passenger side front door. The RKE
receiver has a memory function to retain the vehicle
access codes of up to four RKE transmitters. The
receiver is designed to retain the transmitter codes in
memory, even if the battery is disconnected.
For diagnosis of the RKE receiver, the PDM, or the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnos-
tic information are required. The RKE receiver is
only serviced as a unit with the PDM and, if faulty
or damaged, the entire PDM unit must be replaced.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/DOOR MODULE - DESCRIP-
TION).
OPERATION
The RKE receiver is energized by one of three mes-
sages from the RKE transmitter: Unlock, Lock, or
Panic. The PDM circuitry responds to these messages
to lock or unlock the power lock motors that it con-
trols. The PDM circuitry also sends Lock, Unlock,
and Panic messages to other electronic modules over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus. These messages will result in the Driver
Door Module (DDM) locking or unlocking the driver
side front door, and the other electronic modules in
the vehicle responding as their programming dic-
tates.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system Radio
Frequency (RF) transmitter is equipped with three
buttons, labeled Lock, Unlock, and Panic. It is also
equipped with a key ring and is designed to serve as
a key fob. The operating range of the transmitter
radio signal is up to 10 meters (30 feet) from the
RKE receiver.
Each RKE transmitter has a different vehicle
access code, which must be programmed into the
memory of the RKE receiver in the vehicle in order
to operate the RKE system. Two transmitters are
provided with the vehicle, but the RKE receiver canretain the access codes of up to four transmitters in
its memory. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMIT-
TER - STANDARD PROCEDURE - RKE TRANS-
MITTER PROGRAMMING).
In addition, the RKE transmitters for vehicles
equipped with the optional Memory System are color-
coded and have a number ª1º or ª2º molded into the
transmitter case to coincide with the ªDriver 1
(Black)º and ªDriver 2 (Gray)º buttons of the memory
switch on the driver side front door trim panel. These
transmitters must also have their access codes pro-
grammed into the RKE receiver so that they coincide
with the ªDriver 1º and ªDriver 2º buttons of the
memory switch. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYSTEM).
The RKE transmitter operates on two Panasonic
CR2016 (or equivalent) batteries. Typical battery life
is from one to two years. The RKE transmitter can-
not be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitters.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY TRANSMITTER
(1) Replace the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter batteries. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER - STANDARD PROCEDURE - RKE
TRANSMITTER BATTERIES). Test each of the RKE
transmitter functions. If OK, discard the faulty bat-
teries. If not OK, go to Step 2.
(2) Program the suspect RKE transmitter and
another known good transmitter into the RKE
receiver. Use a DRBIIItscan tool, as described in the
appropriate diagnostic information. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY TRANSMITTER - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE - RKE TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING).
(3) Test the RKE system operation with both
transmitters. If both transmitters fail to operate the
power lock system, use a DRBIIItscan tool and the
appropriate diagnostic information for further diag-
nosis of the RKE system. If the known good RKE
transmitter operates the power locks and the suspect
transmitter does not, replace the faulty RKE trans-
mitter.
NOTE: Be certain to perform the RKE Transmitter
Programming procedure again following this test.
This procedure will erase the access code of the
test transmitter from the RKE receiver.

DESCRIPTION
Driver and passenger side power operated outside
rear view mirrors are standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The power mirror system
allows the driver to adjust both outside mirrors elec-
trically from the driver seat position by operating a
switch on the driver side front door trim panel. The
power mirror system receives non-switched battery
current through a fuse in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) so that the power mirrors remain oper-
ational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The standard equipment power operated outside
rear view mirrors are also equipped with the heated
mirror system, which will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On position and the rear
window defogger switch is turned on. When the rear
window defogger switch is in the On position, electric
heater grids on the rear window glass and behind
both outside rear view mirror glasses are energized.
These electric heater grids produce heat to help clear
the rear window glass and outside rear view mirrors
of ice, snow, or fog. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED MIRRORS - DESCRIPTION) for more
information on this feature.
A driver side automatic dimming outside mirror
that dims the mirror to reduce the glare of bright

Refer toPower Seatin Wiring Diagrams for com-
plete circuit diagrams. Following are general descrip-
tions of the major components in the power seat/
memory seat system.
DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYSTEM
An electronic memory system is standard equip-
ment on the Limited model. The memory system is
able to store and recall the driver side power seat
positions (including the power recliner position), and
both outside power mirror positions for two drivers.
For vehicles with a radio connected to the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus net-
work, the memory system is also able to store and
recall up to twenty - ten AM and ten FM - radio sta-
tion presets for two drivers. The memory system also
will store and recall the last station listened to for
each driver, even if it is not one of the twenty preset
stations.
The memory system will automatically return to
all of these settings when the corresponding num-
bered and color-coded button (Driver 1 - Black, or
Driver 2 - Gray) of the memory switch on the driver
side front door trim panel is depressed, or when the
doors are unlocked using the corresponding num-
bered and color-coded (Driver 1 - Black, or Driver 2 -
Gray) Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A
customer programmable feature of the memory sys-
tem allows the RKE recall of memory features to be
disabled in cases where there are more than two
drivers of the vehicle.
The memory system also has a customer program-
mable easy exit feature that will move the driver
seat rearward 55 millimeters (two inches) or to the
end of its travel, whichever occurs first, when the key
is removed from the ignition switch lock cylinder.A Memory Seat Module (MSM) or Memory Heated
Seat Module (MHSM) are used on this model to con-
trol and integrate the many electronic functions and
features included in the memory system. On vehicles
equipped with the heated seat system option, the
MHSM also controls the functions and features of
that system.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory seat module (or memory heated seat
module)
²Memory switch
²Position potentiometers on both outside power
mirrors
²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors.
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable).
Certain functions and features of the memory sys-
tem rely upon resources shared with other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sensor
information. This helps to reduce wire harness com-
plexity, internal controller hardware, and component
sensor current loads. At the same time, this system
provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics,
and allows the addition of many new feature capabil-

OPERATION
OPERATION - POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system allows the driver and/or
front passenger seating positions to be adjusted elec-
trically and independently using the separate power
seat switches found on the outboard seat cushion
side shield of each front seat. See the owner's manual
in the vehicle glove box for more information on the
features, use and operation of the power seat system.
OPERATION - MEMORY SYSTEM
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation of
the memory system. For diagnosis of the MSM, the PCI
data bus, or the other electronic modules on the PCI
data bus that provide inputs and outputs for the mem-
ory system, the use of a DRBtscan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures manual are recommended.
DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR MODULES
The Driver Door Module (DDM) monitors the mem-
ory switch through a hard wired circuit. It also mon-
itors the unlock messages from the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) receiver in the Passenger Door Module
(PDM) sent over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus. The DDM is programmed to
send memory recall messages and memory system
status messages over the PCI data bus to the other
electronic modules when it detects a memory recall
request.
Refer toDoor Modulein Electronic Control Mod-
ules for more information on the DDM and PDM.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
serves as the user interface for the memory system. It
displays memory system status messages and provides
the user with the means for enabling and disabling
the many customer programmable features available
on the vehicle, including those for the memory system.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the EVIC. Refer toElectronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Centerin Overhead Console Systems for more
information on the EVIC.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - POWER SEAT
SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power seat
system. However, if the vehicle is also equipped with
the optional memory system, these tests may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the driver side
power seat. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the driver side power seat with the memory system
option, 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 driver side power seat with the memory
system option requires the use of a DRBtscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual. The
DRBtscan tool can provide confirmation that the
PCI data bus is functional, that all of the electronic
modules are sending and receiving the proper mes-
sages on the PCI data bus, and that the memory sys-
tem is receiving the proper hard wired inputs and
relaying the proper hard wired outputs to perform its
driver side power seat functions.
Before any testing of the power seat system is
attempted, the battery should be fully-charged and
all of the power seat system wire harness connections
and pins cleaned and tightened to ensure proper cir-
cuit continuity and ground paths. For complete cir-
cuit diagrams, refer toPower Seatin Wiring
Diagrams.
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.
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - MEMORY SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
components and circuits that provide hard wired
inputs to the memory system. However, these tests
may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of this sys-
tem. In order to obtain conclusive testing of the
memory system, the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network and all of the elec-
tronic modules that provide inputs to, or receive out-
puts 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
DRBtscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRBtscan tool can provide con-
firmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that all

of the electronic modules are sending and receiving
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.
DRIVER SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Two different power seat switches are used on this
vehicle, depending upon the optional power seat sys-
tem installed in the vehicle. The six-way power seats
are each equipped with a switch featuring three
switch control knobs ganged together on the outboard
seat cushion side shield (Fig. 1). The ten-way power
seats are each equipped with a switch featuring two
knobs ganged together on the outboard seat cushion
side shield (Fig. 2).
The switch units for both power seat types are
secured to the back of the seat cushion side shield
with two screws. However, the control knobs for the
six-way power seat switch unit remain installed dur-
ing switch unit removal and installation, while both
knobs for the ten-way power seat switch unit must
be removed.
The individual switches in both power seat switch
units cannot be repaired. If one switch is damaged or
faulty, the entire power seat switch unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The power seat tracks of both the six-way and the
ten-way power seat systems can be adjusted in six
different ways using the power seat switches. The
ten-way system has the additional power seat
recliner switch integral to the power seat switch and
also has a separate, stand-alone switch to control the
power lumbar adjuster. See the owner's manual in
the vehicle glove box for more information on the
power seat switch functions and the seat adjusting
procedures.
When a power 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.
