Front Seat Heating Control Module Scan Tool Data Parameters
| Parameter | Expected Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Operating Conditions:Β Engine Running | ||
| Driver Seat Blower Duty Cycle | Varies | The scan tool displays 0-100 %. The value displayed is a PWM signal from the seat heating control module to the logic terminal of the seat blower motor. Higher values indicate higher blower motor speeds while lower values indicate lower blower motor speeds. |
| Driver Seat Cushion Heating Command | Inactive | The scan tool displays Inactive or Active. This parameter displays the commanded output from the seat heating control module to the seat heater elements. |
