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.
• | DTC B1325 must not be present. |
• | Engine must be running. |
• | The seat heating control module must be powered and the heated seat must be enabled. |
By measuring current and voltage output to the seat heating elements every 10 s, the seat heating control module calculates that the heating element resistance is above the maximum resistance.
By measuring current and voltage output to the seat heating elements every 10 s, the seat heating control module calculates that the heating element resistance is below the minimum resistance.
The heated seat function for the affected seat will be disabled.
• | The current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present, and the power mode changes to OFF then back to ACCESSORY or RUN. |
• | The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

Note: Element resistance must be measured twice to ensure that all failure conditions are simulated. First with the seat unoccupied, then with the seat occupied.
⇒ | If not within the specified range, replace the E14A Seat Heating Element - Driver Back. |
Note: Element resistance must be measured twice to ensure that all failure conditions are simulated. First with the seat unoccupied, then with the seat occupied.
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the E14B Seat Heating Element - Driver Cushion. |
Note: Element resistance must be measured twice to ensure that all failure conditions are simulated. First with the seat unoccupied, then with the seat occupied.
⇒ | If not within the specified range, replace the E14C Seat Heating Element - Passenger Back. |
Note: Element resistance must be measured twice to ensure that all failure conditions are simulated. First with the seat unoccupied, then with the seat occupied.
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the control circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the E14D Seat Heating Element - Passenger Cushion. |
