Pinpoint Test AU : DTC B19A8: Notes

Refer to Climate Controlled Seats, Climate Controlled Seats for schematic and connector information.

• DTC B19A8 (Driver Seat Back Blower Speed Short to Ground) -- If the driver seat backrest blower speed circuit is shorted to ground, the DCSM will shut down the driver seat system and set this DTC.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following: 

• Wiring, terminals or connectors
• TED and blower assembly
• DCSM
