Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The memory seat module (MSM) supplies a 5-volt reference voltage to the driver seat position sensors, lumbar position sensors, passenger seat lumbar vertical position sensor, and the steering column position sensors. The MSM monitors this reference voltage to ensure the accuracy of the voltages being returned from the sensors. If the voltage exceeds the normal operating range, errors will occur in the memory recall operations of the seat and steering column.
