Seat position is monitored by the individual seat modules using seat track position Hall sensors incorporated into the motors. This prevents the seat from being adjusted to a position that will contact the surrounding interior trim or a rear seat passenger causing injury (clash avoidance). Seat memory is standard on both drivers and passenger seats. Each seat memory can be configured for 3 personality positions, which are set using the seat memory switch and stored in the individual seat module.

The switches for electrically adjusting the seats are wired directly to the appropriate control module, which controls the movement of the seat via Local Interconnect Network (LIN) serial communication protocol.

NOTE: In the event of a control module failure a fly lead behind the seat valance can be used to connect a power source directly to the seat slide motor. This enables the seat to be moved to gain access to the front and rear seat fixings. The seat can then be removed from the vehicle in order to access the control module.

As part of the Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) each seat needs to perform a clash avoidance check. This procedure is to ensure there is no contact between the seat trim and rear quarter casing. If there is any contact between the seat trim and rear quarter casing the affected seat must be recalibrated via the seat calibration routine in the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS). For more information refer to the PDI manual.
