Power Seat Switch: Service and Repair

SEAT CONTROL SWITCH REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

WARNING:
- The safety belt pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device. Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag equipped vehicle and when handling a safety belt buckle pretensioner or safety belt retractor pretensioner. Never probe a pretensioner electrical connector. Doing so may result in pretensioner or air bag deployment. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
- To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.


NOTE:
- The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the restraints control module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault.
- The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.

1. Depower the SRS.
2. Remove the recliner handle cover.
3. Remove the seat control switch knob.
4. Remove the 3 screws and the outboard front seat side cushion shield.
- Disconnect the seat control switch electrical connector.

5. Remove the seat control switch.
6. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
7. Repower the SRS.
