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.
Recall using the position switch
The PSM controls the seat position based on the position memorized by the memorization function. The PSM can recall two positions. These positions are selected by CAN signal recall P1 and recall P2 commands.
- Recall prevention (start) conditions
- Recall stop conditions
- Recall pause conditions
- During the recall operation, if the state of the IGN SW PSM changes from IGN to ST, then the recall stops temporarily. If the state of the IGN SW PSM returns to IGN within 30 seconds, then the system resumes the recall operation within 100 ms and the seat moves to the memorized position.
- If more than 30 seconds elapse, then the recall operation is abandoned and the IGN SW PSM state returns to IGN.
- Recall operation and buzzer operation
- The seat moves to the memorized position when the system receives a CAN signal recall P1 or P2 command.
- The buzzer works even if there is an error in the motor.
- The buzzer does not go off if there is no seat position in the memory.
- Precautions for the recall operation
- A recall CAN signal does not initiate the recall operation if there is no seat position stored in the memory.
- If you issue another recall CAN signal during the recall operation, the most recent CAN signal is used for the recall operation.
- If you issue the same recall CAN signal as the current recall operation, then this signal does not cause a recall operation.
- The motor does not function if the difference between the memorized position and the current position is less than the specified pulse (*1).
*1) 12 edges (6 pulses) or less for the slide and backrest, 8 edges (4 pulses) or less for the front height adjustment, rear height adjustment, cushion extension, and headrest
