FRONT POWER SEAT CONTROL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENT
| Component | Function | |
|---|---|---|
| Front power seat switch LH | Based on the switch operation, seat adjuster signals are input to the front power seat switch LH to adjust the seat accordingly. | |
| Front seat adjuster assembly LH | Slide motor | Receives a signal from the front power seat switch LH and slides the seat forward and rearward. |
| Front vertical motor | Receives a signal from the front power seat switch LH and raises and lowers the front of the seat cushion. | |
| Rear lifter motor | Receives a signal from the front power seat switch LH and raises and lowers the seat cushion. | |
| Position sensor | Built into each motor and sends position data to the front power seat switch LH so that it can detect the position at all times. | |
| Separate type front seatback spring assembly LH | Reclining motor | Receives a signal from the front power seat switch LH and tilts the seatback forward and rearward. |
| Lumbar support adjuster assembly LH | Receives a signal from the front lumbar power seat switch and operates the built-in motor to adjust the lumbar support. | |
| Seat memory switch | If the seat memory SET switch is being pressed when one of the M1, M2 or M3 seat memory switches is pressed, or if one of the M1, M2 or M3 switches is pressed within 3 seconds of pressing the SET switch, the outer mirror control ECU assembly (for Driver Side) sends the signals so that the seat position can be stored. Then, when a seat memory switch is pressed, a signal is sent to the outer mirror control ECU assembly (for Driver Side) and the seat position changes according to memory. | |
| Front lumbar power seat switch | Operates the motor built into the lumbar support adjuster assembly according to switch operation. | |
SYSTEM OPERATION
The front power seat functions which can be operated with the power seat motors and memorized are shown below.
| Seat Function | Driver Seat |
|---|---|
| Slide | Power and Memory |
| Reclining | Power and Memory |
| Front Vertical | Power and Memory |
| Rear lifter | Power and Memory |
| Lumbar Support adjustment | Power |
The seat memory switch sends memory switch information to the outer mirror control ECU assembly (for Driver Side). Then the information is sent to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN and then an instruction to memorize the seat position is sent to the front power seat switch LH via CAN. As a result, the seat position is memorized.
