Seat Adjuster Switch Circuit Test
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate S64 Seat Adjuster Switch.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between the appropriate ground circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- Driver seat terminal 2
- Passenger seat terminal 5
- If 10 Ω or greater
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- If less than 10 Ω
- Ignition ON.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the appropriate B+ circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- Driver seat terminal 6
- Passenger seat terminal 10
- If the test lamp does not illuminate
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for infinite resistance between the B+ circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, verify the circuit breaker is not open and there is voltage at the circuit breaker.
- If the test lamp illuminates
- Test or replace the S64 Seat Adjuster Switch.
Seat Motor Circuit Test
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate seat motor listed below:
- M50 Seat Front Vertical Motor
- M55 Seat Rear Vertical Motor
- M51 Seat Horizontal Motor
- M56 Seat Recline Motor
- Connect a test lamp between control circuit terminal 1 and control circuit terminal 3, ignition ON.
- Verify the test lamp illuminates when commanding the seat motor Up and Down or Forward and Rearward using the seat adjuster switch.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate during either of the commands
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S64 Seat Adjuster Switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between each control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in each control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, test or replace the S64 Seat Adjuster Switch
- If the test lamp illuminates during each of the commands
- Test or replace the seat motor.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
