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.
Lumbar Support System Operation
Battery voltage is supplied to the lumbar switch through the power seat circuit breaker. While the switches are in an inactive state the switch contacts are closed to the switch ground circuit. When a switch is pressed to an active state the switch contact is closed to the battery voltage supply circuit. Each motor is controlled by the lumbar switch through 2 motor control circuits. The motors are bidirectional and the direction of motor rotation is determined by which of the motor control circuits is switched to battery voltage while the other remains grounded.
