Circuit/System Description

The heated seat temperature sensor that set this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is located in the seat cushion just under the seat cover with the seat

heating element. The seat heating control module supplies a 5 V reference voltage through the temperature sensor signal circuit and a ground

through the low reference circuit to the sensor. The module monitors the voltage of the sensor signal circuit to determine the temperature of the

seat. The temperature sensor varies in resistance based on the temperature of the heating element causing the signal voltage to change. Once the seat

reaches the set temperature, the module will then cycle the control circuit of the heating elements ON and OFF in order to maintain the desired seat

temperature based on the feedback voltage from the sensor.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* DTC B1325 must not be present.

* The seat heating control module must be powered.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B1925 02 or B2170 02

The temperature sensor voltage drops below 0.6 V for more than 1 second.

B1925 05 or B2170 05

The temperature sensor voltage is greater than 5 V for more than 1 second.

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 will clear and set the code to history 3 seconds after the reference voltage returns to normal operating range and the ignition

is cycled OFF then back to ACC or RUN.

* The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.
