Circuit/System Description

The front seat heating elements are controlled by a common high current relay internal to the rear heated seat control module (RHSM) and on the

low side by individual element control circuits. The RHSM connects the seat heater element supply voltage circuits to a common reference point.

This reference point is biased to approximately 2.5 V. Before the RHSM will allow heated seat operation, it checks to see if the heating element

supply voltage circuits and control circuits are shorted to ground or battery voltage. Once the RHSM verifies that it is not closing into a shorted

heating element, it allows heated seat operation. After which it continues to monitor for a shorted circuit.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The RHSM must be powered.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B2345 00

After a heated seat is activated, the RHSM detects a shorted circuit on the seat heating element supply voltage circuit or control circuit.

B2345 13

Any of the temperature sensor inputs remains below 1.45 V for more than 1 second.

B2345 42

The current sensing calibration is not programmed.

B2345 4B

The current sensing calibration is out of range.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The heated seat function for both seats will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present and the power mode changes to OFF then back to ACC or RUN.

* The history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.
