DTC B1825: Power Seat Slide Motor Pulse Error
- Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) and then back to ON (II).
- Operate the power seat adjustment switch in all directions for at least 1 second each.NOTE: DTC B1825 is stored when the slide switch is operated more than 1 second after the seat moves to the most forward or most backward position, even when the system is OK.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC B1825 indicated?
YES -Go to step 5.
NO -Intermittent failure, the slide motor/position sensor is OK at this time. Check for loose or poor connections at the power seat control unit connector.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC B1836 also indicated?
YES -Go to the DTC B1836 TROUBLESHOOTING .
NO -Go to step 6.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Are DTCs B1826, B1827 and/or B1828 also indicated?
YES -Go to step 17.
NO -Go to step 7.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) and then back to ON (II).
- Operate the slide switch for 2 seconds, and check the slide motor operation.
Does the slide motor run smoothly?
YES -Go to step 9.
NO -Go to step 26.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect power seat control unit connector B (40P).
- Disconnect the slide motor/position sensor 6P connector.
- Check for continuity between power seat control unit connector B (40P) terminals No. 11 and No. 29 and slide motor/position sensor 6P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3 respectively.Fig 1: Checking Continuity Between Power Seat Control Unit Connector B (40P) Terminals No. 11 And 29

Is there continuity?
YES -Go to step 13.
NO -Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.
- Check for continuity between body ground and power seat control unit connector B (40P) terminal No. 11.Fig 2: Checking Continuity Between Body Ground And Power Seat Control Unit Connector B (40P) Terminal No. 11

Is there continuity?
YES -Repair a short to ground in the wire.
NO -Go to step 14.
- Reconnect power seat control unit connector B (40P).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Measure the voltage between slide motor/position sensor 6P connector terminals No. 1 (+) and No. 3 (-).Fig 3: Measuring Voltage Between Slide Motor/Position Sensor 6P Connector Terminals No. 1 (+) And 3 (-)

Is there about 5 V?
YES -Faulty slide motor/position sensor, replace it (see FRONT SEAT SLIDE MOTOR REPLACEMENT ).
NO -If there is no voltage, replace the power seat control unit (see POWER SEAT CONTROL UNIT INPUT TEST/REPLACEMENT ). If there is battery voltage, repair a short in the wire (sensor line).
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect power seat control unit connector B (40P).
- Disconnect the slide motor/position sensor 6P connector.
- Check for continuity between power seat control unit connector B (40P) terminals No. 15 and No. 29 and slide motor/position sensor 6P connector terminals No. 4 and No. 3 respectively.Fig 4: Checking Continuity Between Power Seat Control Unit Connector B (40P) Terminals No. 15 And 29 And Slide Motor/Position Sensor 6P Connector Terminals No. 4 And 3

Is there continuity?
YES -Go to step 21.
NO -Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.
- Disconnect the 6P connector from the front up-down motor/position sensor and the rear up-down motor/position sensor, then disconnect the recline motor/position sensor 8P connector.
- Check for continuity between body ground and slide motor/position sensor 6P connector terminal No. 4.Fig 5: Checking Continuity Between Body Ground And Slide Motor/Position Sensor 6P Connector Terminal No. 4

Is there continuity?
YES -Repair a short to ground in the wire.
NO -Go to step 23.
- Reconnect power seat control unit connector B (40P).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Measure the voltage between power seat control unit connector B (40P) terminals No. 15 and No. 29.

Is there battery voltage when the slide switch is operated?
YES -Replace the slide motor/position sensor (see FRONT SEAT SLIDE MOTOR REPLACEMENT ).
NO -Replace the power seat control unit (see POWER SEAT CONTROL UNIT INPUT TEST/REPLACEMENT ).
- Check the No. 10 (20 A) fuse in the auxiliary under-hood fuse/relay box.
Is the fuse OK?
YES -Go to step 27.
NO -Replace the fuse.
- Measure the voltage to body ground at power seat control unit connector A (18P) terminals No. 4 and No. 18 when operating the slide switch.Fig 7: Measuring Voltage To Body Ground At Power Seat Control Unit Connector A (18P) Terminals No. 4 And 18

Is there 0.2 V or more?
YES -Repair an open or high resistance in the wire between the power seat control unit and body ground (G503).
NO -Go to step 28.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect power seat control unit connector A (18P).
- Disconnect the slide motor/position sensor 6P connector.
- Check for continuity between power seat control unit connector A (18P) terminals No. 7 and No. 17 and slide motor/position sensor 6P connector terminals No. 5 and No. 6 respectively.Fig 8: Checking Continuity Between Power Seat Control Unit Connector A (18P) Terminals No. 7 And 17 And Slide Motor/Position Sensor 6P Connector Terminals No. 5 And 6
