Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Power Seats
Power seat uses 5 reversible motors that operate seat functions: front height, rear height, forward/back, recline and belt tower height. A 2-segment power seat switch, located on side of each power seat, directly controls all seat motors. Power for seat operation is supplied by PWR SEAT circuit breaker (25-amp) in rear fuse block. Each seat motor contains an internal electronic circuit breaker (PTC), which trips at the end of travel and resets when voltage is removed. Moving entire seat switch forward/backward should move entire seat forward/backward until switch is released or end of travel is reached. Moving front of seat cushion switch up/down will move front of seat up or down. Moving rear of seat cushion switch up/down will move rear of seat up or down. Moving entire seat switch up/down will move entire seat up or down. Moving seat back forward/backward will move seat back forward or backward. Moving belt tower switch up/down moves belt tower up or down.
