Does the DTC B1098-FRONT RIGHT SEAT HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN reset?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

2. CHECK FOR AN OPEN SEAT HEATER B(+) DRIVER FROM HSM TO SEAT CUSHION




1. Disconnect the Right Cushion Pad Heater 2 - way connector.
2. Disconnect the Heated Seat Module 6 - way connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

3. Measure the resistance of the (P188) Right Seat Heater B(+) Driver circuit from the HSM 6 - way to the Cushion Pad Heater 2 - way connector. Cavity 4 for LHD and 3 for RHD.

Is the resistance below 2 ohms?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Repair the open Seat Heater B(+) Driver circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

3. CHECK THE RIGHT SEAT HEATER CUSHION GROUND CIRCUIT




1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the ground circuit at the Heater Cushion Pad 2 - way connector.

Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Repair the open ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

4. CHECK THE RIGHT CUSHION PAD HEATER RESISTANCE




1. Check the resistance of the Cushion Pad Heater element by measuring between the Right Seat Heater B(+) Driver and the Ground circuit at the 2 - way connector (component side).

Is the resistance above 4.9 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the seat cushion pad heater element as necessary.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 5

5. CHECK THE RIGHT SEAT BACK HEATER RESISTANCE




1. Disconnect the Right Seat Back Heater 2 - way connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

2. Check the resistance of the seat back heater element by measuring between the Right Seat Heater B(+) Driver and the Ground circuit at the connector 2 - way (component side).

Is the resistance above 5.5 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the seat back heater element as necessary.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 6

6. CHECK THE RIGHT SEAT BACK HEATER GROUND CIRCUIT




1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the ground circuit at the Seat Back Heater 2 - way connector.

Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes

- Go To 7

No

- Repair the open ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

7. CHECK FOR AN OPEN SEAT HEATER B(+) DRIVER FROM HSM TO SEAT BACK





NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

1. Measure the (P188) Right Seat Heater B(+) Driver circuit from the Seat Back connector to the HSM connector. Cavity 4 for LHD and 3 for RHD.

Is the resistance below 2.0 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Heated Seat Module.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Repair the (P188) Right Seat Heater B(+) Driver circuit for an open back to the splice.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
