On models equipped with side air bags, a Side Air Bag Simulator (418-133) must be connected to side air bag and seat belt pretensioner floor connectors before diagnosing or repairing power seats.
- Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. On models equipped with side air bags, deactivate air bag system before diagnosing. See appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article. Ensure to disconnect any auxiliary power supplies. Disconnect driver's seat control switch 8-pin harness connector, located on left side of driver's seat. Measure voltage between ground and driver's seat control switch harness connector terminal "H" (Dark Green wire). See Fig 1 . If voltage is 10 volts or more, go to next step. If voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open in Dark Green wire between driver's seat control switch and battery junction box.
- Measure resistance between ground and driver's seat control switch harness connector terminal "E" (Black wire). See Fig 1 . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Black wire between driver's seat control switch and ground point. Ground point is located behind left side kick panel.
