The 8-way power driver seat with memory is controlled by the memory seat module (MSM). The low current battery supply circuit from the DSM 10A fuse supplies the logic power and reference voltages to the MSM. The high current battery supply circuit from the DRIVER SEAT 2 25A circuit breaker supplies the MSM power rail 1 which is used to drive the power seat motors, adjustable pedals motor, and seat heater elements with heated seats only. The MSM supplies a battery voltage reference circuit to the seat adjuster and lumbar switches. The switch signal circuits are referenced from ground within the MSM and when a switch is activated the signal circuit goes high. Each seat adjuster motor is controlled by the MSM through 2 motor control circuits. While the seat adjuster motors are in an inactive state the motor control circuits are closed to ground circuit contacts within the MSM. The MSM operates the seat adjuster motors by switching one of a motors control circuits to battery voltage. The seat adjuster motors are bidirectional and the direction of adjuster motor rotation is determined by which of the adjuster motor control circuits is switched to battery voltage while the other remains grounded.
