Overload Protection

The seat and steering column motors receive operating power through the consumer cutoff/overload protection relay module. The consumer cutoff signal from the GM signals the relay to maintain operating power to the consumers.

If the relay module detects an increase in amperage (overload) the relay will open. The relay module (K-72) is located in the electrical carrier behind the glove box. The relay is reset by switching the ignition "off" for 16 minutes, disconnecting the relay or the DISplus/GT-1.
