Test R: The Power Seat Is Inoperative/Does Not Operate Correctly - Second Row, Power-Fold

PINPOINT TEST R: THE POWER SEAT IS THE INOPERATIVE/DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY - SECOND ROW, POWER-FOLD

Normal Operation
Each second row power-fold seat receives battery voltage from the smart junction box (SJB) circuit SBP18 (YE/RD) (hot at all times) and is connected to ground. The power-fold seat motors contain internal switching that operate the motor until it moves to the reset position and turns off. The demand lighting/battery saver voltage output circuit CLN09 (YE/GN) from the SJB provides the control signal voltage to each seat control switch. The seat control switches are momentary contact switches when pressed and held for at least one second supply switched voltage to the power-fold seat motor control circuit CPS56 (GN/BN) or CPS57 (GY/BN) to initiate a pull and release cycle. The power-fold seat motor retracts a release cable connected to the same mechanical release lever in the seat latch mechanism as the manual release pull strap. When the power-fold seat motor is cycled, the pull strap retraction and release/reset will be noticeable.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse(s)
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Power-fold switch
- Power-fold seat actuator
