Signal Too Low

Signal too low

Checking components and wiring
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the central electronic module (CEM) registers that the signal on the cable to the driver's seat position sensor is too low.
If the fault is intermittent, it has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up or can be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs.
Check the connectors on the central electronic module (CEM) and seat position sensor. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. Check for damaged or loose connections.
Check the connectors between the central electronic module (CEM) and the seat position sensor. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Take readings between:
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal D25 (#25) and seat position sensor terminal #1
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal D10 (#10) and seat position sensor terminal #2.
Remedy as necessary.

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on.
Read off the position of the seat.
Move the seat forwards and backwards. Check that the value changes.
Measurement range 0-5 V.

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - Exit Fault-tracing

No - Attempt New Test
