Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The front seat heating elements are controlled by a common high current relay internal to the heated seat control module (HSM) and on the low side
by individual element control circuits. The HSM connects the seat heater element supply voltage circuits to a common reference point. This
reference point is biased to approximately 2.5 V. Before the HSM will allow heated seat operation, it checks to see if the heating element supply
voltage circuits and control circuits are shorted to ground or battery voltage. Once the HSM verifies that it is not closing into a shorted heating
element, it allows heated seat operation. After which it continues to monitor for a shorted circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The HSM must be powered.
