Power Seats (Service Information): Description
A driver side eight-way power seat and a passenger side six-way power seat are available on this vehicle. The power seat system allows the driver to electrically adjust the seating position using the power seat switch (2) located on the outboard seat cushion side shield. This graphic also shows the available four-way power lumbar switch (1) if equipped on the driver side power seat.
The power seat adjuster assembly is made up of an upper and a lower power seat adjuster. The upper power seat adjuster contains one reversible motor (3) that is connected to a gearbox that tilts the front of the seat cushion up and down. The lower power seat adjusted contains two reversible motors connected to gearboxes. One motor (4) tilts the rear of the seat up and down and the other motor (5) moves the seat assembly forward and rearward. When the rear and front tilt motors are activated together, the height of the driver seat raises and lowers. Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit breakers may damage the motors.
The power seat motors cannot be adjusted or repaired and if inoperative or damaged, the entire power seat adjuster assembly must be replaced.
