Normal Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the passenger seat control switch is activated, voltage and ground is supplied to the applicable seat track motor or seat recliner motor to move the seat to the desired position. There are 3 seat track motors that combine to move the seat cushion horizontally (forward/rearward) and vertically (front up/down and rear up/down). There is an additional motor in the seat recliner mechanism to move the seat backrest forward and rearward. If a new seat track motor needs to be installed, it is necessary to install an entire seat track assembly.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Seat control switch
