DESCRIPTION
When the power seat control switch is operated, a command signal is sent to the position control ECU and switch assembly (power seat control switch and ECU). The front power seat switch then controls the appropriate seat motor as needed. This memory system does not use a seat position sensor. The seat position is detected by counting pulses that are output when the motor turns. If there is no pulse output from the motor, the motor will stop operating. The position control ECU and switch assembly (power seat control switch and ECU) is designed so that any malfunction of the seat memory system will not interfere with manual seat control.
If the position control ECU and switch assembly (power seat control switch and ECU) detects a low motor speed, abnormal activity, or sudden motor current fluctuation, the system will stop the motor. If the motor operates continuously for 120 seconds or more, the system will stop the motor until the switch is turned on again.

Basic inspection
When a malfunction is not confirmed by the DTC check,
troubleshooting should be carried out in all circuits
considered to be possible causes of the problem. In many
cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the
following flowchart, the location of the problem can be found
quickly a ...
