DTC B3941 

Circuit Description 

The driver and passenger seat heaters are controlled by the driver seat module. Power is supplied to the driver 
seat cushion and back heater elements through individual voltage supply circuits. Power is supplied to the 
passenger seat cushion and back heater elements through a common voltage supply circuit. All of the driver and 
passenger seat heater elements are grounded by the driver seat module through individual low side drive control 
circuits. The heater element control circuits are pulse width modulated to ground by the driver seat module in 
order to control the seat temperatures by regulating the current flow through the heater elements. 

Conditions for Running the DTC 

The system voltage must be between 9.0-16.0 volts. 

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

The driver seat module determines that one of the seat heater element voltage supply circuits is shorted to 
ground.

Inspect for poor connections at the harness 
connector of the heated seat sensor. Refer to 
Testing for Intermittent Conditions and 
Poor Connections
 and Connector Repairs 
in Wiring Systems.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets 

z

Both heated seats will be disabled.  

z

When the fault is no longer present a history status DTC will be stored, and heated seat operation will be 
restored.  

Conditions for Clearing the DTC 

z

The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.  

z

When the fault is no longer present the DTC will be a history status code.  

z

The history DTC will be cleared after 100 error free ignition cycles, or by using the scan tool clearing 
DTCs feature.

DTC B3962 

Circuit Description 

The seat adjuster motors are controlled by the driver seat module through the adjuster motor control circuits. In 
an inactive state both of the motor control circuits are grounded within the driver seat module. In an active state 
the driver seat module switches the appropriate motor control circuit to battery positive voltage. The direction 
of the adjuster motor rotation is determined by which of the motor control circuits is switched to battery 
positive voltage while the other remains grounded. During adjuster motor operation the driver seat module also 
monitors the current flow through the motor control circuits. 

Conditions for Running the DTC 

The system voltage must be between 9.0-16.0 volts. 

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

A motor control circuit current monitored by the driver seat module is determined to be shorted to ground.
