Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The seat recline motor is equipped with a potentiometer type position sensor used by the driver seat module (DSM) to determine the position of the seat back. The motor position sensor is supplied with 5-volt reference and ground circuits from the DSM. The position sensor signal circuit is referenced from ground within the DSM. The signal voltage monitored by the DSM ranges from 0.39-4.58 volts and is determined by the wiper location on the resistor within the motor position sensor. The position sensor circuit voltage level is used by the DSM to determine the position of the seat back when storing or recalling memory position settings.
