OPERATION
Seat Position Detection Method
Power Seats with Memory Function
The Hall IC installed on the power seat motor generates pulses corresponding to the speed of the motor. These pulses are then picked up by the position control ECU (front power seat switch) in order to detect the seat position.
| *1 | Power Seat Motor | *2 | Position Control ECU (Front Power Seat Switch) |
| *3 | Hall IC | - | - |
| *a | Current pulsation generated by motor | - | - |
DIAGNOSIS
The position control ECU (front power seat switch) has a diagnosis function. It stores a record of any power seat control system malfunctions in its memory in the form of Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
The position control ECU (front power seat switch) outputs malfunction data and 5-digit DTCs to the Global TechStream (GTS).
The 5-digit DTCs can be read after connecting the Global TechStream (GTS) to the DLC3. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
