STANDARD PROCEDURE - PCM/SKIM
PROGRAMMING
NOTE: Before replacing the PCM for a failed driver,
control circuit or ground circuit, be sure to checkthe related component/circuit integrity for failures
not detected due to a double fault in the circuit.
Most PCM driver/control circuit failures are caused
by internal component failures (i.e. relay and sole-
noids) and shorted circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers
and switched circuits). These failures are difficult to
detect when a double fault has occurred and only
one DTC has set.
RSELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES8E-1

The BCM utilizes integrated circuitry and informa-
tion carried on the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network along with many
hard wired inputs to monitor many sensor and
switch inputs throughout the vehicle. In response to
those inputs, the internal circuitry and programming
of the BCM allow it to control and integrate many
electronic functions and features of the vehicle
through both hard wired outputs and the transmis-
sion of electronic message outputs to other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the PCI data bus.
OPERATION
The Body Control Module (BCM) supplies vehicle
occupants with visual and audible information and
controls various vehicle functions. To provide and
receive information, the BCM is interfaced to the
vehicle's serial bus communications network, referred
to as the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) bus.
This network consists of the;
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Transmission Control Module (TCM)
²Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC)
²Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
²Compass/Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Controller Antilock Brake (CAB)
²HVAC Control Module
²Sliding Door Control Modules (driver and pas-
senger side doors)
²Power Liftgate Module (PLG)
²Audio system equipped with RAZ, RBU, RBK,
and RBB radios.
²Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).
²Side Impact Airbag Control Module (SIACM)²Memory Seat Module (MSM)
²Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
The BCM is operational when battery power is
supplied to the module.
The BCM provides the following features:
²Power Door Locks
²Automatic Door Locks
²Battery Protection - The BCM will automatically
turn off all exterior lamps after 3 minutes, and all
interior lamps after 15 minutes after the ignition is
turned off, if they are not turned off by the driver.
²Chime Control
²Compass/Mini-Trip support.
²Interior Lighting (Courtesy/Reading Lamps)
²BCM Diagnostic Reporting
²Electronic Liftgate Release (with Power Door
Locks)
²Exterior Lighting
²Headlamp Time Delay (with/without Automatic
Headlamps)
²Illuminated Entry
²Fade to Off Interior Lamps - This feature dims
the interior lighting (courtesy lamps) gradually if the
BCM does not receive any new inputs that would
cause the interior lamps to remain on.
²Pulse Width Modulated Instrument Panel Dim-
ming
²Door Lock Inhibit - This feature disables the
door lock functions if the key is in the ignition and
either front door is ajar. Pressing the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) lock/unlock button under these condi-
tions result in normal lock/unlock activation.
The BCM has the ability to LEARN additional fea-
tures in the vehicle, provided the appropriate switch
input and PCI data bus messages are received. Refer
to the LEARNED FEATURES table.

The Midline controller is used on vehicles that
have Power Door Locks. If a vehicle is equipped with
the Vehicle Theft Security System, the Midline con-
troller becomes a Premium when the theft feature is
enabled.
CAUTION: Do not swap Body Control Modules
between vehicles or body controller's off the shelf.
The BCM has internal diagnostic capability that
assists in diagnosing the system error. When an
OPEN or a SHORT circuit exists, the diagnostic tool
can be used to read the BCM faults. The faults are
very descriptive in identifying the appropriate fea-
ture that has faulted.
The only two faults that the BCM logs that con-
clude the replacement of a BCM are faults;
²# 01 - Internal BCM failure (replace BCM)
²# 1F - J1850 Internal Hardware Failure (replace
BCM)
Otherwise the appropriate diagnostic procedures
for each of the features should be taken when the
BCM logs a fault.

MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory seat/mirror
option, utilize a memory module located under the
drivers front seat. This module is basically wired in-
line between the power seat switch and the power
seat track/adjuster motors, or in-line between the
power mirror switch and the power side view mir-
ror(s) motor(s). The Memory Seat/Mirror Module
(MSMM) contains a central processing unit that com-
municates with other modules on the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The MSMM receives hard wired inputs from the
driver power seat switch and the potentiometers on
each of the driver side power seat track motors, or
from the power mirror switch and the potentiometers
on the side view mirror. The MSMM receives mes-
sages over the PCI data bus from the Body Control
Module (BCM) (memory switch status), the Power-
train Control Module (PCM) (vehicle speed status).
The MSMM will prevent the seat memory recall
function from being initiated if the driver side seat
belt is buckled, if the transmission gear selector lever
is not in the Park or Neutral positions, or if the vehi-
cle is moving.
For diagnosis of the MSMM or the PCI data bus, a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures Information are recommended. The MSMM
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When memory system operation is requested
(depressing of the memory switch), a resistor multi-
plexed signal is sent from the memory switch to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM will then
send the appropriate signals out to the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module (MSMM), the MSMM then applies the
voltage supply to the power seat track or side-view
mirror if the proper requirements are met. The vehi-
cle speed must equal zero and the transmission must
be in park or neutral in order for the memory system
to function.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR MODULE
Any diagnosis of the Memory Seat/Mirror sys-
tem should begin with the use of the DRB IIIt
diagnostic tool. For information on the use of
the DRB IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnos-
tic Procedures information.

POWER LIFTGATE CONTROL
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power liftgate (PLG) uti-
lize a PLG control module. This module is located on
the vehicles left side D-pillar just below the motor
assembly (Fig. 7) and contains a microprocessor,
which is used to communicate to the vehicles body
control module. The PLG control module receives and
monitors logic inputs from all the PLG system
switches except for the outside handle switch. This
module also contains the software technology to
detect liftgate obstructions and stop and/or reverse
the door accordingly.
OPERATION

HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles with the heated seat option can be visu-
ally identified by the two separate heated seat
switches located in the instrument panel center
stack, just above the radio (Fig. 1). The heated seat
system allows the front seat driver and passenger to
select from two different levels of supplemental elec-
trical seat heating (HI/LO), or no seat heating to suit
their individual comfort requirements. The heated
seat system for this vehicle includes the following
major components:
²Heated Seat Elements- Four heated seat ele-
ments are used per vehicle, two for each front seat.
One heated seat element is integral to each front
seat trim cover, one in the seat back and one in the
seat bottom (cushion). Service replacement heating
elements are available, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED SEATS/HEATED SEAT ELEMENT -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Heated Seat Modules- Two heated seat mod-
ules are used per vehicle. One module is mounted to
each of the seat cushion pans, located under the for-
ward edge of each front seat. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/
MEMORY HEATED SEAT/MIRROR MODULE -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Heated Seat Sensors- Two heated seat sen-
sors are used per vehicle, one for each front seat. The
heated seat sensors are integral to each of the heated
seat bottoms (cushions).
²Heated Seat Switch- Two heated seat
switches are used per vehicle, one for the driver and
one for the passenger side front seats. The switches
are mounted in the instrument panel center stack.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED SEATS/
DRIVER HEATED SEAT SWITCH - DESCRIPTION)
for additional information.
Fig. 1 HEATED SEAT SWITCH LOCATIONS
1 - HEATED SEAT SWITCHES
RSHEATED SEAT SYSTEM8G-7

Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat sys-
tem components to each other through the electrical
system of the vehicle. These circuits may be con-
nected 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 connectors. Refer to the appropriate wir-
ing information for complete circuit schematic or con-
nector pin-out information.
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 (BCM). The system will only operate when
the ignition switch is in the On position. The heated
seat system will be turned Off automatically when-
ever the ignition switch is turned to any position
except On. Also, the heated seat system will not oper-
ate when the surface temperature of the seat cushion
cover at either heated seat sensor is above the
designed temperature set points of the system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
The most efficient means of diagnosing the heated
seat system is by individual component. For diagno-
sis of a specific component refer to the following:
²Heated seat module, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/MEMORY
HEATED SEAT/MIRROR MODULE - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING).
²Heated seat elements, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/HEATED SEATS/HEATED SEAT ELEMENT -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
²Heated seat switch, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED SEATS/DRIVER HEATED SEAT SWITCH
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
²Heated seat sensor, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED SEATS/HEATED SEAT SENSOR - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING).
Refer to the appropriate wiring information for
complete circuit schematic or connector pin-out infor-
mation.
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. Each heated seat switch
provides a resistor multiplexed signal to its respec-
tive Heated Seat Module (HSM) 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 heat-
ing 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.

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.

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:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL
- DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)- (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL
MODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Transmission Control Module (TCM)- (Refer

DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED SEATS -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information on the
heated seat system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER LOCKS - DESCRIPTION) for additional
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
