Circuit/System Description |
The rear seat heating control module controls seat heating operation for both left and right rear seats. The heating elements are controlled through individual high side and low side control circuits. The low side control circuits for both seats are connected to a common reference point internal to the module. This reference point is biased to approximately 2.5 V. Before the rear seat heating control module will allow heated seat operation, it checks to see if this biased voltage is shorted to ground or voltage. Once the module verifies that it is not closing to a shorted heating element, it allows for heated seat operation. The module will then continue to monitor the heating elements for a shorted circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC |
The rear seat heating control module must be powered.
Conditions for Setting the DTC |
B2345 13
Any temperature sensor input that remains below 1.5 V for more than 1 second.Action Taken When the DTC Sets |
The heated seat function for both rear seats will be disabled.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
• |
The current DTC will clear and set the code to history 3 seconds after the reference voltage returns to the normal operating range and the ignition is cycled OFF then back to ACC or RUN.
|
• |
The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing |
1. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2, X3 harness connectors at the K29R rear seat heating control module.
|
2. |
Test for greater than 3.0 kΩ between the signal and the low reference circuits listed below:
|
• |
E14F left rear seat cushion terminal 3 X3 and terminal 13 X2
|
• |
E14H right rear seat cushion terminal 4 X3 and terminal 14 X2
|
3. |
If less than the specified value, test for a short between the signal and low reference circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the appropriate E14 seat cushion heating element.
|
4. |
If all circuits test normal, replace the K29R rear seat heating control module.
