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.
Memory System: Description
The memory system includes driver's memory seat, outside mirrors, telescoping steering column (if equipped), climate control and stereo functions. When a memory function recall is requested, Seat Control Module (SCM) and Door Control Modules (DCM) will apply voltage to appropriate seat position and mirror position motors until position sensor voltage matches the stored values. The seat control module controls movement of 3 driver's seat position motors. Left and right door control modules control 2 left mirror motors and 2 right mirror motors. All motors have a position sensor, and work independently of each other. Seatback recline and lumbar control is not part of memory functions.
