Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 GMC Acadia, 2016 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2016 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X3 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module and disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Test for 2-10 Ω between control circuit terminal 6 and control circuit terminal 11.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 and X5 harness connectors at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Test for 3.3 k-300 kΩ between the signal circuit terminal 1 X5 and the low reference circuit terminal 3 X2.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the signal and low reference circuits. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit and low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X1, X2, and X5 harness connectors at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
IMPORTANT:
When measuring the resistance, the resistance values are based on the seat being at room temperature of 20°C (68°F).

- Ignition OFF, connect the X3 harness connector at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module and disconnect the X1 and X4 harness connectors at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Test for 2-10 Ω between control circuit terminal 14 X1 and control circuit terminal 14 X4.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 and X5 harness connectors at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Test for 3.3 k-300 kΩ between the signal circuit terminal 2 X5 and the low reference circuit terminal 6 X2.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the signal and low reference circuits. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit and low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X1, X2, X4, and X5 harness connectors at the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the K40 Seat Memory Control Module.
