Preliminary Checks
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If power accessory circuit breaker opens whenever power seat switch is operated, check circuits for a short to ground. Remove and inspect fuses. Check for good, clean ground connections. Check for proper installation of aftermarket electronic equipment.
- Check for broken or partially broken wire inside of insulation, which could cause system malfunction but prove good in a continuity/voltage check with system disconnected. These circuits may be intermittent or resistive when loaded. Check by monitoring for voltage drop with system under load. If problem exists, repair as necessary. If problem is not found, perform self-diagnostics (memory seats only). See SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM . On models without memory seats, attempt to diagnose by symptom. See SYMPTOM INDEX table.
