DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DOOR LOCK MOTOR
Any diagnosis of the power lock system
should begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiag-
nostic tool. For information on the use of the
DRB IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic
Service Manual.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate wiring information.
Verify battery condition before testing door lock
motor(s).
To determine which motor is faulty, check each
individual door for electrical lock and unlock or dis-
connect the motor connectors one at a time, while
operating the door lock switch. In the event that
none of the motors work, the problem may be caused
by a shorted motor or a faulty switch. Disconnecting
the faulty motor will allow the others to work.
To test an individual door lock motor, disconnect
the electrical connector from the motor. To lock the
door, connect a fused 12 volt power source to the pos-
itive pin of the lock motor and a ground wire to the
other pin. To unlock the door reverse the wire con-
nections at the motor pin terminals. If these results
are not obtained, replace the door latch.

AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT
MIRROR
DESCRIPTION
An automatic dimming inside day/night rear view
mirror and an automatic dimming driver side outside
rear view mirror are available factory-installed
options on this model. Following is a general descrip-
tion of this optional equipment.
The automatic day/night mirror is able to automat-
ically change its reflectance. A thin layer of electro-
chromic material between two pieces of conductive
glass make up the face of the mirror. Two photocell
sensors are used to monitor light levels and adjust
the reflectance of the mirror to reduce the glare of
headlamps approaching the vehicle from the rear.
For removal procedures, (Refer to 23 - BODY/IN-
TERIOR/REAR VIEW MIRROR - REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The ambient photocell sensor faces forward, to
detect the outside light levels. A second sensor faces
rearward to detect the light level received through
the vehicles back window. When the difference
between the two light levels becomes too great (the
light level received at the rear of the mirror is much
higher than that at the front of the mirror), the mir-
ror begins to darken.
The mirror switch allows the driver a manual con-
trol of whether the automatic dimming feature is
operational. When AUTO is selected a small Light-
Emitting Diode (LED), to the right of the mirror
switch, is illuminated. The automatic dimming fea-
ture will only operate when the ignition switch is in
the On position. The mirror also senses the backup
lamp circuit, and will automatically disable its self-
dimming feature whenever the transmission gear
selector is in the Reverse position.
NOTE: The mirror always defaults to an ON state
upon ignition.
The driver side automatic dimming mirror is stan-
dard with the automatic dimming inside mirror. The
signal to control the dimming of that mirror is gen-
erated by the automatic day/night inside rear view
mirror circuitry. That signal is then delivered to the
driver side outside rear view mirror on a hard wired
circuit.
The automatic day/night mirror cannot be
repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire inside rear
view mirror assembly must be replaced.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT MIRROR
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
(1) Check the fuse in the intelligent power module.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted cir-
cuit or component as required and replace the faulty
fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fuse in the intelli-
gent power module. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK,
repair the open circuit to the ignition switch as
required.
(3) Unplug the wire harness connector from the
automatic day/night mirror. Check for battery voltage
at the fused ignition switch output circuit cavity of
the automatic day/night mirror wire harness connec-
tor. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open
circuit to the junction block as required.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Check for continuity between the ground circuit cav-
ity of the automatic day/night mirror wire harness
connector and a good ground. There should be conti-
nuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the cir-
cuit to ground as required.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. Set
the parking brake. Place the transmission gear selec-
tor lever in the Reverse position. Check for battery
voltage at the backup lamp switch output circuit cav-
ity of the automatic day/night mirror wire harness
connector. If voltage is present, reinstall the auto-
matic day/night mirror wire harness connector and
go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open circuit as
required.
(6) Place the transmission gear selector lever in
the Neutral position. Place the automatic day/night
mirror switch in the On (LED in the switch is
lighted) position. Cover the forward facing ambient
photocell sensor to keep out any ambient light.
NOTE: The ambient photocell sensor must be cov-
ered completely, so that no light reaches the sen-
sor. Use a finger pressed tightly against the sensor,
or cover the sensor completely with electrical tape.
(7) Shine a light into the rearward facing head-
lamp photocell sensor. The automatic day/night mir-
ror should darken. The automatic day/night mirror
should darken within 2 minutes if testing for the
first time. For immediate response, turn the vehicle
8N - 28 POWER MIRRORSRS

OFF and back ON with the forward-facing light sen-
sor still covered. 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 out-
side mirror, there is a 2±pin connector. 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 fol-
lowing components: mirror switch, side view mirror,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
SHROUD - REMOVAL).
(3) Disconnect electrical harness connector.
(4) Remove switch from steering column shroud
(Fig. 3).

POWER SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system option allows the driver
and front seat passenger to electrically adjust their
seating positions for optimum control and comfort.
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 rearward.
The power seat system receives battery current
through a 40 amp fuse in the Integrated Power Mod-
ule (IPM) 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 COULDRESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
The eight-way driver side power seat is also avail-
able with the heated seat and/or memory seat sys-
tem. The memory seat system automatically
positions the power seat for two different drivers.

The power seat system includes the following com-
ponents:
²Power seat recliners
²Power seat switches
²Power seat tracks
²Circuit breaker
The power seat system with memory and heated
seat options includes the following components:
²Power seat recliner
²Power seat switch
²Power seat track.
²Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM)
²Memory set switch
²Heated Seat Module (HSM)
²Heated seat switch
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
MEMORY SYSTEM
The memory system is able to store and recall the
driver side power seat positions (including the power
recliner position), power adjustable pedal positions
and the driver outside mirror position for two driv-
ers. On vehicles equipped with a factory radio, the
memory system is also able to store and recall radio
station 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 preset sta-
tions.
The memory system will automatically return to
its preset settings when the corresponding numbered
button of the memory switch is depressed, or when
the doors are unlocked using the corresponding
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A customer
programmable feature of the memory system allows
the RKE recall of memory features to be disabled, if
desired. This programmable feature is internal in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) mod-
ule, which is located in the overhead console.
A Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) is used to
control and integrate the many electronic functions
and features included in the memory seat and mirror
systems.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM)
²Memory set switch
²Position potentiometers on the driver outside
side view mirror
²Position potentiometers on the power adjustable
pedal motor²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable)
Certain functions of the memory system rely upon
resources shared with other electronic modules in the
vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. Initial diagnosis of
these electronic modules or the PCI data bus network
requires the use of a DRBIIItor equivalent scan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures information. If
this method does not prove conclusive, the proper
wiring schematics and the service manual diagnostic
information are required.
The other electronic modules that may affect mem-
ory system operation are:

information on the RKE system.
OPERATION
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system receives battery current
through fuse #22 in the Integrated Power Module
(IPM) and a circuit breaker under the front seats,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the appropri-
ate power seat track adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track
through its drive unit in the selected direction until
the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the
seat track 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 seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motor each contain a
8N - 32 POWER SEAT SYSTEMRS

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.
MEMORY SYSTEM
The Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
battery current through fuse #22 in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) and the power seat system cir-
cuit breaker, located under the driver side front seat
near the rear edge of the seat cushion pan. The mem-
ory system does not operate with the Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse removed. The MSMM will drive a
maximum of 2 motors at a time in a given direction.
If conflicting directions are requested, the priority for
response will be approximately as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward or Forward
²Seat Front Down or Up
²Seat Rear Down or Up
²Recliner Rearward or Forward
The inputs from these switches to the MSMM is a
current limited battery source fed by the MSMM.
This protects the MSMM printed circuit board traces
from acting as fuses. All of these switch contact
inputs to the MSMM are normally closed to ground,
except when actuated.
For diagnosis of the MSMM, the Programmable
Communication Interface (PCI) data bus, or the other
electronic modules on the PCI data bus that provide
inputs and outputs for the memory system, the use of
a DRBIIItor equivalent scan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures information is recommended.
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 pro-
vides the user with the means for enabling and dis-
abling the many customer programmable features
available on the vehicle, including those for the mem-
ory system.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information on the
EVIC.
DIAGNOSIS AND 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 ofthe 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,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER SEATS - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING).
WARNING: SOME VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH
SEATBACK MOUNTED AIRBAGS. 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.
(1) If either power seat is completely inoperable,
check the power seat circuit breaker, located under
the trailing edge of the driver side power seat. If the
power seat circuit breaker is OK, continue to the
next step.
(2) Check for proper battery and ground connec-
tions at the power seat switch and/or memory seat
module. Repair any wiring as necessary.
(3) Check the power seat system wire harness con-
nections and pins to ensure proper circuit continuity
and ground paths.
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 driver side power seat with the memory
system option requires the use of a DRBIIItor
equivalent scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures information. The DRBIIItscan tool can pro-
vide confirmation 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 outputs to perform its driver side power seat
functions.
(1) If the driver power seat exhibits an interrupted
or jerky motion, ensure the wire harness is connected
correctly. To verify the concern, obtain a DRB IIItor
equivalent scan 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

upper half of the track unit. Each motor moves the
seat adjuster through a combination of worm-drive
gearboxes and screw-type drive units. The horizontal
adjustment motor moves the seat track in the for-
ward and aft directions. The recliner adjustment
motor 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 component
in this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire power
seat track unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the 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 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.

Actuate the power seat switch to move the power
seat track adjusters in each direction. The power seat
track adjusters should move in each of the selected
directions. If a power seat track adjuster operates in
one direction only, move the adjuster a short distance
in the opposite direction and test again to be certainthat the adjuster is not at its travel limit. If the
power seat track adjuster still operates in one direc-
tion only, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS/DRIVER SEAT SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING). If the power seat track adjuster does not
operate in more than one direction, perform the fol-
lowing tests.
TESTING POWER SEAT TRACK MOTORS
(1) Check the power seat circuit breaker under the
seat. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the
faulty power seat circuit breaker.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the power seat cir-
cuit breaker under the seat. If OK, go to Step 3. If
not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the fuse
in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) as required.
(3) Remove the outboard seat cushion side cover,
(Refer to 23 - BODY/SEATS/SEAT CUSHION SIDE
COVERS - REMOVAL). Disconnect the wire harness
connector from the power seat switch. Check for bat-
tery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
power seat switch wire harness connector. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) cir-
cuit to the power seat circuit breaker under the seat
as required.
(4) Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the power seat switch wire harness con-
nector and a known good ground. There should be
continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the
open ground circuit as required.
(5) Test the power seat switch, (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/POWER SEATS/DRIVER SEAT SWITCH -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the switch tests OK,
test the circuits of the power seat wire harness
between the inoperative power seat track adjuster
motor and the power seat switch for shorts or opens.
If the circuits check OK, replace the faulty power
seat track unit. If the circuits are not OK, repair the
power seat wire harness as required.

travel. This allows the power sliding door to stop and
reverse direction any time an obstruction is felt or
any of the command switches are operated (while
closing only). Battery voltage is supplied to the power
sliding door system through a 40 amp fuse, located in
the Integrated Power Module (IPM) assembly. The
child lockout switch prevents children from opening
or actuating the power sliding door system when
desired. In the unlikely event that the power sliding
door system develops a fault, the power sliding door
can still be operated manually from the interior or
exterior door handle, just like a standard manual
sliding door.
The power sliding door control module communi-
cates on the Programmable Communication Interface
(PCI) Data Bus Circuit. Therefore, the power sliding
door control module can generate and store its own
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). A diagnostic scan
tool, such as the DRB IIItis used to read and diag-
nose these trouble codes.
NOTE: It may be possible to generate Sliding Door
Diagnostic Trouble Codes during normal power
sliding door operation. Refer to the Body Diagnos-
tic Manual for a complete list of diagnostic routines.
For additional information, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER DOORS - OPERATION). Refer to the
appropriate wiring information for complete circuit
schematic or connector pin-out information.WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS IN POWER SLIDING DOOR OPER-
ATION BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SERVICE OF
THE 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 Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
Data Bus circuit 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 cycle, if the power sliding door
module detects sufficient resistance to door travel,
such as an obstruction in the door's path, the power
sliding door module will immediately stop door move-
ment 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 detecting 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 complete cycle of the door, using any one of the
command switches or with the DRB IIIt, or equiva-
lent scan tool. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
DOORS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - LEARN
CYCLE) 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. The power sliding door system
inhibitors are:
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 transmission must be inpark or neutral
in order for the power sliding door system to start a
cycle.
²The child lockout switch must be in the
ªUNLOCKEDº position in order for the power sliding
door systems B-pillar switches to function.
