WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Nissan Titan. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK SEAT SLIDING MECHANISM 

    Check the following.

    • Operation malfunction caused by sliding rail deformation, pinched harness or other foreign materials
    • Operation malfunction caused by foreign materials adhered to the sliding motor LH or sliding rail connector rod
    • Operation malfunction and interference with other parts by poor installation

    OK or NG

    • OK : GO TO 2.
    • NG : Repair the malfunctioning part and check again.
  2. CHECK FUNCTION 

    With CONSULT-II

    SEAT SLIDE ITEM DESCRIPTION

    Test item Description
    SEAT SLIDE The sliding motor is activated by receiving the drive signal.

    Without CONSULT-II 

    GO TO 3.

    OK or NG

    • OK : Sliding motor circuit is OK.
    • NG : GO TO 3.
  3. CHECK SLIDING MOTOR CIRCUIT HARNESS CONTINUITY 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect driver seat control unit and sliding motor LH.
    3. Check continuity between driver seat control unit connector P3 terminals 35, 42 and sliding motor connector P4 terminals 4, 6.

      35 (V/W) - 6 (V/W) : Continuity should exist  .

      42 (O/B) - 4 (O/B) : Continuity should exist  .

    4. Check continuity between driver seat control unit connector P3 terminals 35, 42 and ground.

      35 (V/W) - Ground : Continuity should not exist  .

      42 (O/B) - Ground : Continuity should not exist  .
