INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- When "+B of GND short malfunction of communication bus" DTCs (B1214 and B1215) are detected at the same time as "communication stop" DTC B1272, repair the "+B or GND short malfunction of communication bus" DTCs first.
| 1. CHECK OPERATION |
Check that the switch of the front power seat can move the driver side seat normally.
- HINT:
- With this inspection, the position control ECU & switch assembly (driver seat ECU) CPU can be diagnosed if it works normally or not.
- OK:
- Switch of the front power seat can move driver side seat normally.

| 2. INSPECT FUSE (P/SEAT) |
Remove the P/SEAT fuse from the instrument panel junction block.
Measure the resistance of the fuse.
- Standard resistance:
- Below 1 Ω
|
|
||||
| OK | |
| 3. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POSITION CONTROL ECU AND SWITCH ASSEMBLY (DRIVER SEAT ECU) - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND) |
Disconnect the P31 ECU connector.

Measure the resistance and voltage of the wire harness side connector.
- Standard voltage:
Tester Connection
Specified Condition
P31-5 (+B) - Body ground
10 to 14 V
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection
Specified Condition
P31-1 (GND) - Body ground
Below 1 Ω
|

| OK | |
| 4. CHECK RESISTANCE OF COMMUNICATION LINE |
Disconnect the P30, P19 and T4 ECU connectors (w/ Driving position memory).
Disconnect the P30, P19 and G3 ECU connectors (w/o Driving position memory).


Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection
Specified Condition
P30-1 (MPX1) - T4-5 (MPX1) (*1)
Below 1 Ω
P30-1 (MPX1) - P19-7 (MPX1)
Below 1 Ω
P30-1 (MPX1) - G1-12 (MPD2) (*2)
Below 1 Ω
