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.
Rear Heated Seat Switch Indicators Inoperative
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the heated seat switch.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the supply voltage circuit terminal K and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the supply voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the body control module (BCM).
- Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector to the heated seat switch.
- Disconnect the appropriate harness connector (C3 or C4) at the rear heated seat module.
- Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the inoperative heated seat switch indicator control circuit and ground. The indicator should illuminate.
- If the indicator does not illuminate, test the indicator control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the heated seat switch.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the heated seat module.
Heated Seat Switch Indicators Always On
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the (C3, C4) harness connector at the rear heated seat module.
- Ignition ON, the heated seat switch mode indicators should not be illuminated.
- If illuminated, test the control circuit of the illuminated indicator for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the heated seat switch.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the rear heated seat module.
