Seat Track Position Sensor: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Dodge Magnum, 2006 Dodge Charger, and 2006 Chrysler 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The seat track position sensor (1) is a Hall Effect-type sensor. This sensor consists of a Hall Effect Integrated Circuit (IC) chip encased in potting material within a cavity of the molded plastic sensor housing. The sensor housing has two integral snap features (3) and snaps into a stamped metal bracket located on the lower outboard seat adjuster track. A molded connector (2) integral to the sensor housing is connected to the vehicle electrical system through the driver seat wire harness.
The seat track position sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the entire sensor must be replaced.
