- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the driver seat adjuster switch.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1.0 ohm between the ground circuit terminal and ground for the appropriate seat adjuster switch listed below:
- RPO AG1 ground circuit terminals A and G
- RPO AE8 ground circuit terminal B
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal and ground for the seat adjuster switch listed below:
- RPO AG1 B+ circuit terminal F
- RPO AE8 B+ circuit terminal E
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the seat adjuster switch.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the inoperative seat motor.
- Connect a test lamp between control circuit terminals of the seat motor.
- Activate the appropriate seat switch to the FORWARD/UP and REARWARD/DOWN directions. The test lamp should turn ON while activating the switch in the both directions.
- If the test lamp remains OFF for either direction, test the motor control circuits for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the seat adjuster switch.
- If all circuits tests normal, test or replace the appropriate 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.
