Pinpoint Test BA: DTCs B1113 and B111B

Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 119, Climate Controlled Seats for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number

Normal Operation

The Passenger Climate Controlled Seat Module - 2 (PCSM-2) monitors the RH rear seat Thermo-Electric Device (TED) circuits. If a short to ground or voltage on any of these circuits is detected, the DTC(s) will be set.

- DTC B1113 (Passenger Thermo-Electric Device Control Overtemperature Fault) - If the PCSM-2 TED driver integrated circuit temperature exceeds 175°C (347°F), the PCSM-2 will shut down the RH rear seat system and set this DTC.
- DTC B111B (Passenger Thermo-Electric Driver Overcurrent Low) - If PCSM-2 outputs to the RH rear seat backrest or cushion TED (circuit pins A, B, C or D at the PCSM-2 connector) or any components within these circuit loops are shorted to ground or a TED resistance of less than 0.9 ohms is sensed, the PCSM-2 will shut down the RH rear seat system and set this DTC.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- TED assembly
- PCSM-2



PINPOINT TEST BA: DTCs B1113 AND B111B

NOTICE: When taking measurements at Passenger Climate Controlled Seat Module - 2 (PCSM-2) harness connectors, do not insert the electrical probes into the female connector pins. Inserting the probes into connector pins can cause intermittent or open electrical connections after reassembly resulting in Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and system failure. Touching the tip of these connector pins is recommended instead.
