HEATED SEAT ELEMENTS
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat system includes two seat heating
elements in each front seat, one for the seat cushion
and the other for the seat back. The two elements for
each seat that are connected in series with the
Heated Seat Module (HSM). The temperature sensor
is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) ther-
mistor. One temperature sensor is used for each seat,
and it is located on the seat cushion heating element
for all models.
The seat heating elements are sewn into the seat
cushion cover trim and seat back cover trim units.
The heated seat elements and the temperature sen-
sor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or
damaged, the seat element assembly must be
replaced. Refer to the procedure in this section.
OPERATION
The heated seat elements resist the flow of electri-
cal current. When battery current is passed through
the elements, the energy lost by the resistance of the
elements to the current flow is released in the form
of heat. The temperature sensor is a NTC thermistor.
When the temperature of the seat cushion cover
rises, the resistance of the sensor decreases. The
heated seat module supplies a five-volt current to one
side of each sensor, and monitors the voltage drop
through the sensor on a return circuit. The heated
seat module uses this temperature sensor input to
monitor the temperature of the seat, and regulates
the current flow to the seat heating elements accord-
ingly.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
ELEMENTS
The wire harness connectors for the seat cushion
and seat back heating elements are located under the
seat, at the heated seat module. For circuit descrip-
tions and diagrams, refer to section 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams.

MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH
DESCRIPTION - TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
The turn signals are actuated with a lever on
Multi-Function Switch, located on the left side of the
steering wheel. The signals are automatically turned
off by a canceling cam (two lobes molded to the clock
spring mechanism). The cam comes in contact with
the cancel actuator on the turn signal (multi-func-
tion) switch assembly. Either cam lobe, pushing on
the cancel actuator, returns the switch to the OFF
position. The multi-function switch is a resistive
MUX switch that feeds inputs to the BCM.
OPERATION - TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
Lane change signaling is actuated by applying par-
tial turn signal stalk movement toward the direction
desired until the indicator lamps flashes in the
instrument cluster. When the switch stalk is released
the stalk will spring back into the neutral position
turning OFF the turn signal.
With the ignition switch ON and the turn signal
switch stalk actuated left or right, current flows
through the:
²Multi-function switch
²Body Control Module
²Integrated Power Module (IPM)
²Turn indicator lamp
²Front and rear turn signal bulbs.
A chime will sound after the vehicle has traveled a
distance of approximately 1.0 mile and a speed of 15
mph, with the turn signal ON.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MULTI-FUNCTION

STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HANDLING
AIRBAGS
DEPLOYED AIRBAG
The vehicle interior may contain a very small
amount of sodium hydroxide powder, a by-product of
airbag deployment. Sodium hydroxide powder can
irritate the skin, eyes, nose and throat. Wear safety
glasses, rubber gloves, and long sleeved clothing
when cleaning any of the powder residue from the
vehicle.
If you find that the cleanup is irritating your skin,
run cool water over the affected area. Also, if you
experience nasal or throat irritation, exit the vehicle
for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation
continues, see a physician.
UNDEPLOYED AIRBAG
The airbags must be stored in its original special
container until used for service. At no time should a
source of electricity be permitted near the inflator on
the back of an airbag module. When carrying or han-
dling an undeployed airbag module, the trim side of
the airbag should be pointing away from the body to
minimize possibility of injury if accidental deploy-
ment occurs. Do not place undeployed airbag face
down on a solid surface, the airbag will propel into
the air if accidental deployment occurs.

if applicable.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual pow-
der from the vehicle interior. Work from the outside
in to avoid kneeling or sitting in a contaminated
area. Vacuum the heater and A/C outlets as well (Fig.
1). If the heater or air conditioner was in RECIRC
mode at time of airbag deployment, operate blower
motor on low speed and vacuum powder residue
expelled from the heater and A/C outlets. Multiple
vacuum cleaning may be necessary to decontaminate
the interior of the vehicle.
