GENERAL INFORMATION
Power seats can be adjusted in six different direc-
tions up, down, forward, back, tilt forward, or tilt
rearward. A three armature permanent magnet reversible mo-
tor is coupled through cables to worm gear box assem-
blies located in the seat tracks, providing the various
seat movements. The electrical circuit is protected by a 30 amp circuit
breaker located on the fuse block.
TEST PROCEDURES
Before any testing is attempted the battery should be
carefully charged and all connections and terminals
cleaned and tightened to insure proper continuity and
grounds. With dome lamp on, apply switch in direction of
failure. If dome lamp dims the seat motor is trying to
work indicating mechanical jamming. If dome lamp
does not dim, then proceed with the following electrical
tests.
CIRCUIT BREAKER TEST
Find correct circuit breaker on fuse block. Pull out
slightly but be sure that circuit breaker terminals still
contact terminals in fuse block. Connect ground wire of
voltmeter to a good ground. With probe of voltmeter
positive wire, check both terminals of circuit breaker
for battery voltage. If only one terminal checks at
battery voltage, circuit breaker is defective and must
be replaced. If neither terminal shows battery voltage,
check for open or shorted circuit to circuit breaker.
HARNESS VOLTAGE TEST
The following test will determine whether or not
voltage is continuous through the body harness to the
switch. (1) Remove power seat switch from mounting posi-
tion and disconnect switch from wiring harness. (2) Connect one lead of test light to ground terminal,
black wire (BK) of center section, and touch other test
light lead to red wire (RD) terminal. (3) If test light comes on, harness to switch is good.
If test light does not come on, perform circuit breaker
test.
MOTOR TESTS
AA BODY
(1) Remove switch from mounting position and dis-
connect from harness. (2) To check the center motor, connect a jumper wire
between pin 5 and pin 3 (Fig. 1). Connect a second
jumper wire between pin 7 and pin 4 If motor does not
operate, reverse the jumpers, pin 5 to pin 4 and pin 7 to
pin 3. If motor still does not operate check wiring
between switch connector and motor assembly. If wir-
ing checks good replace motor assembly. (3) To check the front motor, connect a jumper wire
between pin 5 and pin 1 (Fig. 1). Connect a second
jumper wire between pin 7 and pin 8. If motor does not
operate, reverse the jumpers, pin 5 to pin 8 and pin 7 to
pin 1. If motor still does not operate check wiring
between switch connector and motor assembly. If wir-
ing checks good replace motor assembly.
(4) To check the rear motor, connect a covered jumper
wire between pin 5 and pin 6 (Fig. 1). Connect a second

above. When the control module has finished, it will
return to the normal operating mode after ten sec-
onds if no further switches are activated.The control module will also return to normal op-
erating mode if any manual seat or recliner move-
ment switch is actuated during the ten second
timeout. If the system has found a problem, refer to the ap-
propriate diagnosis condition.
POWER MEMORY SEAT, RECLINER AND
MIRRORS DIAGNOSIS
Before any diagnosis is done on the system, move
the seat switches and listen for relays clicking in the
control module under the seat. If relays can be heard,
the main battery and ground circuits to the control
module as well as the battery circuit to the switches
in the driver's door are good. When checking for voltage or continuity, always
use a volt/ohm meter to get accurate readings. The
seat and recliner switches must be activated to check
for voltage at the seat and recliner motors or at the
input to the control module from the switches. The control module creates a special voltage supply
for the position sensing functions. It also shuts down
after five seconds, in order to check this or any other
voltage being fed back to the control module. A
switch may have to be activated more than once to
verify a voltage reading. The voltage from the con-
trol module that feeds the seat and recliner position
sensing potentiometer, will be between 4.5 to 5 volts.
For simplicity in the diagnosis section, the feed volt-
age will be called 5 volts. On the position sensing
wires, these voltages will always be less than 5 volts
but more than 0 volts. Typically the high level is at
a maximum of about 4.25 volts and the low level can
be as little as 0.1 volts. If any seat or recliner potentiometer or mirror
rheostat position sense wires are crossed, the control
module will not move that part of the system. The
seat or mirror will be in a fault diagnostic mode.
CONDITION: SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE.
PROCEDURE
(1) Check for forward/rearward operation of re-
cliner. If not operable, check for an open or loose cir-
cuit breaker mounted in board on the relay bank in
cavity 15. (2) Check for continuity between 2-way connector
under driver's seat and pin 1 at control module 10-
way connector (Fig. 16 and 17). (3) Check for continuity between 2-way connector
under driver's seat and pin 6 at control module 10-
way connector. (4) Check for any movement of the seat by operat-
ing the seat switch.If movement the circuit is good
into the control module. (5) No movement check for an open or loose fuse in
cavity 15 of the fuse block. (6) Check for battery voltage to pin 3 of driver's
power seat switch.

(3) Use an ohmmeter to test the wiring between
the door switch and the control module in the driv-
er's seat. The circuits should be disconnected from
their components at each end. Repair the wiring as
required for open circuits, terminal push outs, or bad
crimps. If the circuits are good to the control module
but the function is still missing, replace the control
module.
CONDITION: NO MOVEMENT OF THE SEAT, RELAYS CAN BE HEARD CLICKING WHENTHE SEAT SWITCH IS ACTIVATED.
PROCEDURE
(1) Check for battery voltage and ground at the ap-
propriate pins of the control module 10-way connec-
tor (Fig. 23). If the proper results are not obtained,
replace the control module. If the circuits are correct,
then continue the procedure.
(2) Check for continuity of the motor circuits from
the control module 10-way connector to the left
power seat motor package (Fig. 24). (3) Repair the wiring as required for open circuits,
terminal push outs, or bad crimps. If the circuits are
good but the seat movement direction is still missing,
replace the seat motor package assembly. After re-
placement of the seat motor package, reconnect all wiring connectors and reinstall seat assembly in ve-
hicle. Operate the switches manually to cause maxi-
mum seat movement in all directions. Perform the
memory seat diagnostic self check so the control
module will learn the new soft limits of the assem-
bly.
CONDITION: NO MOVEMENT OF THE MEMORY MIRRORS WHEN THE POWERMIRROR SWITCH IS ACTUATED, MEMORYMIRRORS MOVE DURING RECALL ONLY.
PROCEDURE
(1) Check for battery voltage at pin 1 of the mem-
ory mirror switch 8-way connector in the driver's
door. This battery feed is through a diode package
that is located in the left cowl side area. A grounded
wire on the switch side of the diode would most
likely cause the diode package to open. Solder and
tape the connections if replacement is necessary. The
fuse is in cavity 13 of the fuse block. (2) Check for ground at pin 5 of the memory mir-
ror switch 8-way connector. Repair as needed. (3) Check for continuity of the memory mirror
switch. Refer to the Group 8T, Mirror Switch Test
Procedure and the Continuity.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Front and rear door window lift motors are of the
permanent magnet type. A positive and negative bat-
tery connection to either of the two motor terminals
will cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Re-
versing current through these same two connections
will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direc-
tion. Each individual motor is grounded through the
master switch by a black wire attached to the left
cowl panel. It is necessary that the window be free to slide up
and down in the glass channels or tubes and tracks.
If the window is not free to move up and down, the
window lift motor will not be able to move the glass. To determine if the glass is free is to disconnect the
regulator from the glass lift plate, and slide the win-
dow up and down by hand. For conventional arm-sec-
tor regulators, after the lift plate is detached from
the glass, it will slide off the regulator drive arm.
Flex-drive regulators may be detached the same way
or by removing one screw holding the flex rack to the
lift plate drive arm.
WIRING VOLTAGE TEST
The following wiring test determines whether or
not voltage is continuous through the body harness
to switch. After removing switch for testing purposes, care-
fully separate multiple terminal block on wiring har-
ness from switch body. With ignition switch ON
connect one lead of test light to black (or gray) wire
terminal and touch other test light lead to tan wire
terminal. If the test light comes on, the wiring cir-
cuit between the battery and switch is functional. If
light does not come on, check 30 amp main fuse (cir- cuit breaker) or for a broken wire. For wiring, spe-
cific connector type and location, refer to Group 8W,
Wiring Diagrams.
WINDOW LIFT SWITCH TEST
For switch testing, remove the switch from its
mounting. Using an ohmmeter, refer to Window
Switch Continuity Charts to determine if continuity
is correct. If the results are not obtained, replace the
switch. AC and AY Bodies are equipped with an Auto-
Down feature. This feature allows the operator to
lower the driver's window without having to hold the
switch in the down position. The Auto-Down feature
can be activated by pressing the down switch past
the first detent (Stop). To test the auto-down feature, operate the window
in the normal up and down mode. If the window
works correctly in the normal mode, but not in the
auto-down mode, replace the switch. To test the window switch (other than Auto-Down
mode), install a known good switch.
WINDOW LIFT MOTOR TEST
(1) Connect positive (+) lead from a test battery to
either of the two motor terminals. (2) Connect negative (-) lead from test battery to
remaining motor terminal. (3) The motor should now rotate in one direction to
either move window up or down. (a) If window happens to already be in full UP
position and motor is connected so as to rotate in
UP direction no movement will be observed. (b) Likewise, motor connected to DOWN direc-
tion rotation, no movement will be observed if win-
dow is already in full DOWN position.

This connector is included in the power mirror cir-
cuity except, for AC and AY body and should be
checked if the mirrors are inoperative.
MIRROR MOTOR TEST PROCEDURE
(1) Remove power mirror switch from mounting
position. (2) Disconnect switch wiring harness at connector.
In the case of memory mirrors, (green 8-way mirror
connector and memory switch in drivers door panel),
the switch wiring disconnects from the cowl top har-
ness rather than the mirror harness. (3) Using two jumper wires, one connected to a 12
volt source, and the other connected to a good body
ground. Refer to the Mirror Test (Fig. 2 through 5)
for appropriate switch style, and for pin numbers.
(4) If results shown in the Fig. 2 through 5 are not
obtained, check for broken or shorted circuit, or re-
place mirror assembly as necessary.
MIRROR SWITCH TEST PROCEDURE
(1) Remove power mirror switch from mounting
position. (2) Disconnect wiring harness at switch connector.
(3) Using a ohmmeter, test for continuity between
the terminals of the switch as shown in the Mirror
Switch Continuity for appropriate switch style (Fig. 6
through 8). (4) If results shown in the Fig. 5, 6 and 7 are not
obtained, replace the switch.
HEATED MIRROR
Heated mirrors are available on all car lines except
AP Body, with Power Mirrors and Rear Window De-
fogger only. The heated mirror is controlled by the rear window defogger switch. Only time that the
heated mirror is on is when the rear window defog-
ger is on.
TEST PROCEDURES
The mirror should be warm to the touch. (a) If not check fuses.
(b) Test voltage at rear window defogger switch.
² If no voltage repair wire.
² Apply voltage to one wire and ground the other,
refer to Fig. 2 through 5 for pin numbers. Mirror
should become warm to the touch.

(2) The headlamps and parking lamps should turn
ON for about five seconds.
² AUTO MIRROR LED
² DARK LED
² AUTO LAMP LED
² The LED indicators blink for about 5 seconds.
² If the three indicators continue to blink consider-
ably longer than 5 seconds, then the mirror assembly
is defective. (3) The mirror should change to dim state.(a) Place shift selector in reverse (R), with igni-
tion switch ON:
² AUTO MIRROR LED indicator ON
² DARK LED indicator flashing
² Lasting about 15 seconds
(b) The mirror should slowly change to bright
state. (c) If the ignition is not turned OFF within the
15 second time period, the mirror will reset to its
previous setting.
The previous conditions are OK, the mirror is op-
erating properly. If not OK, continue with voltage tests below.

WIRING DIAGRAM SHEETS AND INDEXES . . . 1
The wiring diagrams contain the latest information
at the time of publication. Throughout this group ref-
erences may be made to a particular vehicle by letter
or number designation. A chart showing the break-
down of these designations is included below.
SECONDARY IGNITION WIRING
Secondary ignition wiring is shown in Figures 1, 2,
3, 4, and 5. For information on distributor operation
or ignition systems refer to Group 8D Ignition Sys-
tems.
WIRING DIAGRAM SHEETS AND INDEXES
The diagrams are organized to show the basic ve-
hicle and all of its options. Add-on or non-factory op-
tions are not covered. The diagram pages are
identified by a sheet number which is located at the
lower right or left hand corner of each sheet. Page
numbers at the top of each page do not apply to
diagram sheets. Diagram sheets show all information relating to
the system. This includes feeds, grounds, switch in-
ternal circuity, connectors, splices, and pin identifica-
tion for controllers and modules.
1993 MODEL CHART
Ä GENERAL INFORMATION 8W - 1

is non-standard the main wire color will have a slash
(/) after it followed by the tracer color.
CIRCUIT IDENTIFICATION
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric
code to identify the wire and its function. To identify
which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the
Circuit Identification Code Chart. This chart shows
the main circuits only and does not show the second-
ary codes that may apply to some models.
LOCATING A SYSTEM
To locate a system or component in the diagrams,
refer to the alphabetical index at the front of the di-
agrams. Determine the diagram sheet number. Sheet
numbers are located at the lower right or left hand
corner of each sheet. Page numbers at the top of
the page do not apply to diagram sheets. The diagram index identifies the main system and
all components in that system. There are also sec-
tions of the index that identify specific components
only (for example modules, lamps, etc.). Refer to a
components name in the index if you are unclear as
to what a system may be called. Diagram pages are arranged starting with the bat-
tery and fuses. Then working into charging, starting,
and ignition systems. After this they start at the
front of the vehicle and work to rear of the vehicle.
The diagrams end with connector identification
pages.
COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
When looking for a components location on the ve-
hicle refer to the wiring and components section.
This section shows the wire harness routing and the
components location in the vehicle. To use this sec-
tion refer to the wiring diagrams for the location of
the component. Then use the component identifica-
tion index to locate the proper figure number.
SPLICE LOCATIONS
Splices are indicated in the diagrams by a diamond
with a splice circuit code within it (Fig. 9 example 1).
If there is more than one splice per circuit a small
box will be connected to it with the splice number in
it (Fig. 9 example 2). To locate a splice in the wiring harness determine
the splice number from the wiring diagrams then re-
fer to the splice location index. This section shows
the general location of the splice in the harness.

Fig. 8 Wire Color Code Chart
Ä GENERAL INFORMATION 8W - 3

The wiring diagrams also indicate what harness
the splice is located in. To identify the harness an
abbreviated call out is placed next to the main splice
(Fig. 6).
CONNECTORS
Connectors shown in the diagram sheets are
viewed from the terminal end unless otherwise spec-
ified. For viewing bulkhead, powertrain control mod-
ule, and transmission control module connectors refer
to the rear of the wiring diagrams. This area shows
major connectors for pin and cavity information.
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are
six steps which can aid in the procedure. The steps
are listed and explained below. (1) Verify the problem.
(2) Verify any related symptoms. Perform opera-
tional checks on components that are in the same cir-
cuit as the problem area. Refer to the wiring
diagram fuse application chart. (3) Analyze the symptoms. Use the wiring dia-
grams to determine what the circuit is doing, where
the problem most likely is occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue. (4) Isolate the problem area. (5) Repair the problem.
(6) Verify proper operation. For this step check for
proper operation of all items on the circuit repaired.
Refer to the wiring diagram fuse application chart.
FUSIBLE LINKS
Vehicle wiring harnesses are equipped with fusible
links to protect the harness in the event of a short in
the system. Fusible links are color coded to indicate
wire gauge and size. Refer to the fusible link chart
for color and gauge identification (Fig. 10).
HARNESS REPAIR
FUSIBLE LINK REPLACEMENT
CAUTION: Do not replace blown fusible links with a
standard wire. Only use fusible type wire with hyp-
alon insulation or damage to the electrical system
could occur. Also make sure correct gauge of wir-
ing is used. Refer to the wiring diagrams for proper
gauge and color.

(14) Center the heat shrink tubing over the joint
and heat using a heat gun. Heat the joint until the
tubing is tightly sealed and sealant comes out of both
ends of the tubing. (15) Insert the repaired wire into the connector.
(16) Install the connector locking wedge and recon-
nect the connector to its mating half. (17) Re-tape the wire harness starting 1-1/2 inches
behind the connector and 2 inches past the repair. (18) Connect battery and test all affected systems.
SYMBOLS, FUSES AND RELAYS
Various symbols are used throughout the wiring
diagrams. These symbols can be identified by refer-
ring to the symbol identification chart (Fig. 15). For fuse block, relay bank, or power distribution
center information refer to the fuse charts and relay
bank section.
CAUTION: When replacing a blown fuse it is impor-
tant to replace it with a fuse having the correct am-
perage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other
than indicated may result in an electrical overload.
If a proper rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates
a problem that should be corrected.
