Normal operation
The seat control switch is powered by battery voltage on circuit SBP12 (GN/RD) and is supplied ground on circuit GD133 (BK). When the lumbar knob on the seat control switch is pressed, voltage and ground are supplied to the power lumbar motor. When pressing the lumbar knob in the opposite direction, the seat control switch reverses the polarity to the power lumbar motor, which moves the lumbar mechanism in the opposite direction.

Possible Causes
An inoperative power lumbar can be caused by:
- wiring, terminals or connectors.
- a faulty seat control switch.
- a faulty power lumbar motor assembly.
