Inspection Procedure

  1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL 
    1. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistances of the main wire and the branch wire.
      CAUTION: Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
      NOTE:
      • After the engine switch is turned off, the HDD navigation system requires approximately 6 minutes to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the engine switch off, wait 6 minutes or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
      • When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
  2. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (FRONT POWER SEAT ECU AND SWITCH LH BRANCH WIRE) 
    1. Disconnect the e46 front power seat ECU and switch LH connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE FRONT POWER SEAT ECU AND SWITCH LH BRANCH WIRE OR CONNECTOR (CANP, CANN) 

      OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT POWER SEAT ECU AND SWITCH LH - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
      NOTE: When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
    2. Disconnect the e45 front power seat ECU and switch LH connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance 

      RESISTANCE REFERENCE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      e45-6 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard voltage
