Electric Seats

The BCU controls the logical operation of the electrically operated front seats. See ELECTRIC SEATS .

Two modes of operation are available:

• Electric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on or the driver's door is opened for a short time period.
• Electric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on and the driver's door is closed.

The seats are operated by four electric motors which control the seat cushion rear up/down, the seat cushion front up/down, seat cushion forward/rearward and seat squab recline. The electrically powered lumbar adjustment in each seat is operated by a single motorized air pump and a solenoid located on the seat squab frame. The air pump inflates a cushion in the seat squab and the solenoid operates a valve to deflate the cushion. The seat squab and cushion may also contain heater elements to provide heated seat operation.

The switches for electrically operated seats are located either side of the center console.
