REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The left and right rear window defogger (EBL)
relays are International Standards Organization
(ISO)-type relays (Fig. 3). Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal functions and patterns.
The EBL relays are electromechanical devices that
switch battery current through fuse 10 (30 amp)
located in the fuse/relay block under the driver seat
to the rear window defogger grids and when
equipped, switches battery current to the outside
mirror heating grids. The EBL relays are energized
when the relay coils are provided battery current by
the rear window defogger module.
The EBL relays are located in the fuse/relay block
under the driver seat. Refer to the fuse and relay
map located on the inner surface of the fuse/relay
block cover for the left and right rear window defog-
ger (EBL) relay locations.The black, molded plastic case is the most visible
component of the two rear window defogger (EBL)
relays. Five male spade-type terminals extend from
the bottom of the base to connect each relay to the
vehicle electrical system, and the ISO designation for
each terminal is molded into the base adjacent to
each terminal.
OPERATION
The left and right rear window defogger (EBL)
relays are electromechanical switches that uses a low
current input from the rear window defogger module
to control the high current output to the rear window
defogger grids. The movable common feed contact
point is held against the fixed normally closed con-
tact point by spring pressure. When the relay coil is
energized, an electromagnetic field is produced by the
coil windings. This electromagnetic field draws the
movable relay contact point away from the fixed nor-
mally closed contact point, and holds it against the
fixed normally open contact point. When the relay
coil is de-energized, spring pressure returns the mov-
able contact point back against the fixed normally
closed contact point. The resistor or diode is con-
nected in parallel with the relay coil in the relay, and
helps to dissipate voltage spikes and electromagnetic
interference that can be generated as the electromag-
netic field of the relay coil collapses.
The EBL relay terminals are connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system through receptacles in the fuse/
relay block. The inputs and outputs of the EBL
relays include:
²The common feed terminal (30) receives a bat-
tery current input from fuse 10 (30 amp) in the fuse/
relay block through a fused B(+) circuit at all times.

²The coil ground terminal (86) is hardwired to
ground point G202.
²The coil battery terminal (85) receives a battery
current input from the rear window defogger module
when the rear window defogger switch is energized.
²The normally open terminal (87) provides a bat-
tery current output to the rear window defogger grid
lines through the relay output circuit only when the
rear window defogger relay coil is energized.
²The normally closed terminal (87A) is not con-
nected to any circuit in this application, but provides
a battery current output only when the rear window
defogger relay coil is de-energized.
The left and right EBL relays cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, they must be replaced.

The heated seat system components operate on
battery current received through a fuse in the Fuse
Block on a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) cir-
cuit so that the system will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On or Accessory positions.
The heated seat system will be turned Off automati-
cally whenever the ignition switch is turned to any
position except On or Accessory. Also, the heated seat
system will not operate when the surface tempera-
ture of the seat cushion cover at either heated seat
sensor is above the designed temperature set points
of the system.DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEATS

DRIVER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are located on the instru-
ment panel, in the accessory switch bezel. The two,
momentary rocker type switches provide a signal to
the Heated Seat Relay through separate hard wired
circuits. Each switch contains two light emitting
diodes (LED), one for each High and Low setting to
let the occupant know that the seat heater system is
on.
The heated seat switches and their LED's cannot
be repaired. If either switch is faulty or damaged the
entire switch must be replaced.
OPERATION
There are three modes that can be selected with
each of the heated seat switches: Off, Low, and High.
When the top of the switch rocker is depressed, the
low mode is selected and the low mode LED indicator
illuminates. Depressing the top of the switch rocker a
second time will turn the heated seat to Off. This
same process is repeated for High heat setting. The
heated seats will automatically return to the Off
mode anytime the vehicle ignition switch is turned
Off.Both switches provide separate hard wire inputs to
the Heated Seat Relay to indicate the selected mode.
The Heated Seat Relay responds to the heated seat
switch messages by controlling the output to the seat
heater elements of the selected seat.

HEATED SEAT ELEMENT
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat system includes two seat heating
elements in each front seat, one for the seat cushion
(Fig. 1) and the other for the seat back. All models
use two resistor wire heating elements for each seat
that are connected in series with the Heated Seat
Relay. The temperature sensor is a Negative Temper-
ature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor. One temperature
sensor is used for each seat, and it is located in the
seat cushion heating element for all models.The seat heating elements are glued onto the seat
and seat back cushions. The heated seat elements
and the temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged a new seat assem-
bly must be installed.
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 is released in the form of heat. The heated
seat temperature sensor is a NTC thermistor. When
the temperature of the seat cushion cover rises, the
resistance of the sensor decreases. The heated seat
relay uses this temperature sensor input to monitor
the temperature of the seat, and regulates the cur-
rent flow to the seat heating elements accordingly.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
ELEMENT
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring.
NOTE: When checking heated seat elements for
continuity, be certain to move the heating element
being checked. Moving the element, such as sitting
in the seat will eliminate the possibility of an inter-
mittent open in the element which would only be
evident if the element was in a certain position.
Failure to check the element in various positions
could result in an incomplete test.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the heated seat element wire har-
ness connector from under the seat cushion. Check
for continuity between the seat heater driver circuit
and ground. There should be continuity, less than 7
ohms. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the seat
assembly.
(2) Check for continuity between the seat heater
B+ driver circuit cavity and the seat back frame.
There should benocontinuity. If OK, heating ele-
ment is OK at this time. If not OK, replace the seat
assembly.
HEATED SEAT RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat relay is an electromechanical
device that switches 12v battery current to the
heated seat elements when the relay control coil is
energized. The heated seat relay is located in the
Fuse Block, under the drivers seat. The heated seat
relay is a International Standards Organization
(ISO) relay. Relays conforming to the ISO specifica-
tions have common physical dimensions, current
capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal functions.

The heated seat relay cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The ISO relay consists of an electromagnetic coil, a
resistor or diode, and three (two fixed and one mov-
able) electrical contacts. The movable (common feed)
relay contact is held against one of the fixed contacts
(normally closed) by spring pressure. When the elec-
tromagnetic coil is energized, it draws the movable
contact away from the normally closed fixed contact,
and holds it against the other (normally open) fixed
contact. When the electromagnetic coil is de-ener-
gized, spring pressure returns the movable contact to
the normally closed position. The resistor or diode is
connected in parallel with the electromagnetic coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes that
are produced when the coil is de-energized.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
RELAY
The heated seat relay is located in the Fuse Block,
under the drivers seat. Refer toWiringfor the loca-
tion of complete heated seat system wiring diagrams.
(1) Remove the heated seat relay from the fuse
block.
(2) A relay in the de-energized position should
have continuity between terminals 87A and 30, and
no continuity between terminals 87 and 30. If OK, go
to Step 3. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(3) Resistance between terminals 85 and 86 (elec-
tromagnet) should be 75   5 ohms. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(4) Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86.
There should now be continuity between terminals
30 and 87, and no continuity between terminals 87A
and 30. If OK, check the relay supply circuits. If not
OK, replace the faulty relay.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) The heated seat relay is located in the fuse
block, under the drivers seat. Refer to wiring for
detailed location.
(3) Grasp the heated seat relay firmly and pull it
straight out from the fuse block. A slight rocking
motion will aid in removal.
INSTALLATION
(1) Grasp the heated seat relay firmly and push it
straight in the fuse block.
(2) Reconnect the battery negative cable.
HEATED SEAT SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat temperature sensor is a Negative
Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor. One tem-
perature sensor is used for each seat. The sensor is
located in the seat cushion heating element for all
models.
The heated seat sensor cannot be adjusted or
repaired and if it is found to be faulty, the complete
heated seat element must be replaced.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT

For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring.
NOTE: Any resistance values (ohmsV) given in the
following text are supplied using the automatic
range generated by a FLUKETautomotive meter. If
another type of measuring device is used the val-
ues generated may not be the same as the results
shown here, or may have to be converted to the
range used here.
(1) Backprobe the heated seat relay wire harness
connector, do not disconnect. Using an voltmeter,
check the voltage of the seat temperature sensor
input cavity of the heated seat relay wire harness
connector. The seat sensor input voltage should be
between 1.7 volts and 3.0 volts with the system ON.
If OK, sensor is OK at this time. If not OK, replace
the faulty seat cushion heating element and sensor
assembly.
