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 driver and front passenger climate control seats are controlled by separate heated and cool seat switches. The switches are located on the door panels. When a heated or cool seat switch is pressed, ground is momentarily applied through the switch contacts and the switch signal circuit to the door module. In response to this signal, the module then sends a message to the memory seat module via the low speed GMLAN serial data line indicating the heat or cool seat request. The door module then applies voltage through the appropriate indicator control circuits to the heated seat switch illuminating the appropriate indicators.
