Description

Recliner motor and position sensor circuit malfunction

Detection condition
•  Position memory control module detects the following conditions during the recliner motor operation control:
―  Detects 4 times that current flowing to the recliner motor is less than 1 A.
―  Detects for 0.2 s that there is no change in the recliner sensor pulse.
•  Position memory control module detects any of the following conditions during the recliner motor not operation control:
―  Detects 4 times that current flowing to the recliner motor exceeds 10 A.
―  Detects 4 times that current flowing to the recliner motor exceeds 1 A and a change in the recliner sensor pulse 5 timeswithin 1 s.
•  Position memory control module detects for 5 s that there is no change in the recliner sensor pulse during the recliner motor operation control.
Fail-safe function
•  Memory clearing:
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner position sensor, clear all the memory positions.
•  Memory seat positioning using position memory switch and remote transmitter:
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner position sensor, inhibits all memory seat positioning.
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner motor, inhibits recliner motor seat positioning.
•  Recliner motor seat positioning using power seat switch:
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner motor, inhibits recliner motor seat positioning.
•  Memory registration using position memory switch and remote transmitter:
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner position sensor, inhibits the memory registration.
―  If there is a malfunction in the recliner motor and the malfunction is caused by short circuit, inhibits the memory registration.

Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
2
INSPECT POSITION MEMORY CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR
•  Disconnect the position memory control module connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
3
INSPECT FOR SHORT TO GROUND IN RECLINER MOTOR AND POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the recliner motor and position sensor and position memory control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal B
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal A
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal C
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal D
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between the following terminals:
•  Position memory control module terminal 3G—Recliner motor and position sensor terminal B
•  Position memory control module terminal 3H—Recliner motor and position sensor terminal A
•  Position memory control module terminal 3O—Recliner motor and position sensor terminal C
•  Position memory control module terminal 3P—Recliner motor and position sensor terminal D
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
Go to Step 6.
No
Go to the next step.

•  Measure the voltage at the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal B
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal A
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal C
―  Recliner motor and position sensor terminal D
