Refer to the description of the heated seat switch
later in this section for additional information.
Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat sys-
tem components to each other through the electrical
system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are
integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed
throughout the vehicle and retained by many differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
heated seat system components through the use of a
combination of soldered splices and splice block con-
nectors. Refer to Wiring for complete system wiring
schematics. The wiring information also includes the
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
The heated seat system components operate on
battery current received through a fuse in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) on a fused ignition
switch output (run) circuit from the Body Control
Module. The system will only operate when the igni-
tion switch is in the On position. The heated seat
system will be turned Off automatically whenever
the ignition switch is turned to any position except
On. Also, the heated seat system will not operate
when the surface temperature of the seat cushion
cover at either heated seat sensor is above the
designed temperature set points of the system. See
the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features, use and operation of the
heated seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
SYSTEM
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the heated seat 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 heated seat modules are receiving the
proper hard wired inputs from and relaying the
proper hard wired outputs to the Body Control Mod-
ule in order to perform its functions. Refer toWiring
Diagramsfor complete wiring schematics. The wir-
ing information also includes the proper wire and
connector repair procedures, further details on wire
harness routing and retention, as well as pin-out and
location views for the various wire harness connec-
tors, splices and grounds.
DRIVER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center bezel (Fig. 2). The two three-
position rocker-type switches, one switch for each
front seat, are incorporated into one large switch
assembly that also includes the hazard, rear window
wiper and washer switches. The heated seat switches
each provide a resistor multiplexed signal to its
respective Heated Seat Module (HSM) through sepa-
rate 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) which light to indicate that the heater
for the seat is turned on.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch assembly must be replaced.
OPERATION
There are three positions that can be selected with
each of the heated seat switches: Off, Low, or High.
When the left side of the switch rocker is fully
depressed, the Low position is selected and the low
position LED indicator illuminates. When the right
side of the switch rocker is fully depressed, the High
position is selected and the high position LED indi-

cator illuminates. When the switch rocker is moved
to its neutral position (middle), Off is selected and
both LED indicators are extinguished.
Each switch provides separate resistor multiplexed
hard wire inputs to its respective Heated Seat Mod-
ule (HSM) to indicate the selected switch position.
The heated seat module responds to the heated seat
switch status messages by controlling the output to
the seat heater elements of the selected seat. The
Low heat position set point is about 36É C (97É F),
and the High heat position set point is about 41É C
(105É F).

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 resistance of the elements to the
current flow is released in the form of heat. The tem-
perature sensor is a NTC thermistor. When the tem-
perature of the seat cushion cover rises, the
resistance of the sensor decreases. The heated seat
module supplies a five-volt signal 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 accordingly.
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.
In order to access and test the heated seat ele-
ments it will be necessary to remove the appropriate

(3) Connect the negative battery cable.
(4) Verify heated seat system operation.
(5) Install the appropriate seat cushion or seat
back trim cover. Make certain the seat wire harness
is correctly routed through the seat and seat back.
The excess wire between the cushion and back ele-
ments should be securely tucked between the rear of
the cushion foam and the rear carpet flap of the trim
cover.
HEATED SEAT SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Two heated seat sensors are used per vehicle, one
in each front seat cushion heating element. The
heated seat temperature sensor is a Negative Tem-
perature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor.
The heated seat sensors cannot be repaired or
adjusted and if found to be faulty, the complete
heated seat cushion element must be replaced.
OPERATION
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
SENSOR
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring
Diagrams.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the green 4-way heated seat mod-
ule wire harness connector.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance
between cavities 2 and 3. The sensor resistance
should be between 50 kilohms at 15É C (60É F) and 2
kilohms at 30É C (85É F). If not OK, replace the
faulty seat element and sensor assembly.
