Diagnosis Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK SEAT CUSHION THERMAL ELECTRIC DEVICE

    Perform thermal electric device component inspection for the seat cushion. Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION (THERMAL ELECTRIC DEVICE) ".

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: GO TO 2.

    NO: Replace seat cushion thermal electric device.

  2. CHECK SEAT CUSHION THERMAL ELECTRIC DEVICE CIRCUITS
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect seat cushion thermal electric device connector and climate controlled seat control unit connector B217.
    3. Check continuity between seat cushion thermal electric device connector B219 (A) terminals 1, 2 and climate controlled seat control unit connector B217 (B) terminals 26, 27.
