Circuit/System Description

The driver and front passenger heated seats are controlled by the seat heating control module that is located under the driver seat cushion. When the

heated seat is active, the module applies power through a common voltage supply circuit to the seat heater elements. The module controls the seat

temperature by providing a pulse width modulation (PWM) ground through the seat heater element control circuit to the heater elements. The

module then monitors the current flow through the heating elements and the rate of change of the temperature sensor to verify correct heated seat

operation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* DTC B1325 must not be present.

* The engine must be running.

* The seat heating control module must be powered and the heated seat must be enabled.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B2425 0D or B2430 0D

By measuring current and voltage output to the seat heating elements every 10 seconds, the seat heating control module calculates that the heating

element resistance is above the maximum resistance.

B2425 0B, B2425 0E, B2430 0B, or B2430 0E

By measuring current and voltage output to the seat heating elements every 10 seconds, the seat heating control module calculates that the heating

element resistance is below the minimum resistance.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The heated seat function for the affected seat 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 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.
