SUBJECT: Harness Routing - Rear Seat Area

MODEL: All equipped with power rear seats

Situation: Various systems in the vehicle may malfunction due to wires becoming pinched in the right rear seat rails.

It is possible to pinch the wiring for the rear harness, ABS/ASC right rear sensor and power supply lead for the rear power distribution box.
Consequently, extreme care must be taken when reinstalling the right rear power seat.
Route the wires below the right mounting bracket as shown.

The housing for Fusible Link B should be placed on the mounting stud to ensure proper routing of the rear power distribution box power supply cable.
