Motor, Vented Seat: Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Jeep Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The vented seat motors will only operate with the engine running and will not operate at the same time as the heated seats. The vented seat motors are controlled by the Heated Seat Module (HSM). The HSM provides the vented seat motors with variable analog voltages giving the motors two selectable speeds. These speeds are selected by the driver and/or front passenger by pressing the vented seat switches. Switching the vented seats on while the heated seats are already operating will disable the heating of the seat and start the venting of the seat. Both front vented seats work independently from each other, so that the driver and front passenger can choose there own settings for individual comfort preferences.

The vented seat system is diagnosed using a scan tool. Comfort Seat and Wheel Module. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX .

The vented seat motors cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if inoperative or damaged.
