Preliminary Checks
2000 Chevrolet Chevy Express G3500, Van Cargo Extended, 6.5 FSECTION Preliminary Checks
- Check POWER ACC fuse (25-amp), located in instrument panel fuse block.
- Ensure terminal contact and ground connections are clean and tight. Check for proper installation of aftermarket electronic equipment.
- Check for any obstruction under seat or carriages which may affect power seat operation.
- If seat motor internal circuit breaker is tripped, it will reset when voltage is removed from motor.
- Check for broken or partially broken wire inside of insulation, which could cause system malfunction but prove good in a continuity/voltage check with system disconnected. These circuits may be intermittent or resistive when loaded.
- If motors operate but seat does not move, check for obstruction in seat drive rail or check for broken drive gear. If seat tilts forward and/or rearward but does not move up or down, replace power seat switch.
