Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the seat adjuster switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than 1 ohm, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal E and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Connect the harness connector at the seat adjuster switch.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the inoperative seat motor.
- Connect a test lamp between control circuit terminal 1 and control circuit terminal 5.
- Verify that the test lamp illuminates while pressing the appropriate seat switch in both directions.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate for both directions, test the motor circuits for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal replace the seat adjuster switch.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the inoperative motor.
