Circuit/System Testing
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.
B2425 Left Rear Heated Seat Cushion
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the (C1) harness connector at the rear heated seat module.
- Test for less than 13.2 ohms of resistance between the seat cushion supply voltage terminal 3 and the control circuit terminal 5.
- If greater than 13.2 ohms, test the supply voltage circuit and the control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heating element.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the (C2, C4) harness connectors at the rear heated seat module.
- Test for 2.1K-300K ohms of resistance between the seat cushion temperature sensor signal circuit terminal 9 (C4) and the low reference circuit terminal 6 (C2).
- If greater than 300K ohms, test the signal circuit and low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion temperature sensor.
- If less than 2.1K ohms, replace the seat cushion temperature sensor.
- Ignition OFF, connect the (C1, C2, C4) harness connectors at the heated seat module.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the seat cushion heating element/temperature sensor.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the temperature sensor signal circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than 5.2 volts, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
- If less than 4.8 volts, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
B2430 Right Rear Heated Seat Cushion
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the (C1) harness connector at the rear heated seat module.
- Test for less than 13.2 ohms of resistance between the seat cushion supply voltage circuit terminal 6 and the control circuit terminal 2.
- If greater than 13.2 ohms, test the supply voltage circuit and the control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heating element.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the (C2, C4) harness connectors at the rear heated seat module.
- Test for 2.1K-300K ohms of resistance between the seat cushion temperature sensor signal circuit terminal 20 (C4) and the low reference circuit terminal 8 (C2)
- If greater than 300K ohms, test the signal circuit and low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion temperature sensor.
- If less than 2.1K ohms, replace the seat cushion temperature sensor.
- Ignition OFF, connect the (C1, C2, C4) harness connectors at the heated seat module.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the seat cushion heating element/temperature sensor.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the temperature sensor signal circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than 5.2 volts, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
- If less than 4.8 volts, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
