Seats - Power: Operation
ECU supplies motors, position sensors, and switches with voltage. ECU monitors switches, and when a determined combination of switches have been activated, it performs the appropriate operation. If a seat motor is operating, ECU monitors its voltage consumption and position of seat as determined by position sensors. ECU can store seat settings and fault codes.
With ignition switch in ON position, left seat switch is supplied with voltage from fuse No. 16. Right seat switch is supplied with voltage from fuse No. 5. On memory power seat, voltage is supplied from fuse No. 16.
