1. GENERAL INFORMATION
This seat ass em bly Section for the MY2003 VY Series & MY2003 V2 Series II service inf orm ation has been divided
into seven s ections: Front Seat, ex cept Coupe; Diagnosis Fr ont Seat, except Coupe; Front Seat, Coupe; Diagnos is
Front Seat, Coupe; Rear Seat, Sedan; Rear Seat, Wagon and Rear Seat, Coupe.
At the start of each Section, usage charts are provided for domestic and export markets to aid the seat
identification. T he charts include the vehicle m odel, trim f abric, trac k ass embly, the addition of lumber support, side
airbag and the construction of the trim covers to the trim pads.
For the rear s eats these c harts inc lude the addition of headres ts and an armrest. T he charts are com plim ented with
illustrations of the complete breakdown of each of the individual seat combinations available.
A four- way electric adjustable driver s eat (f r ont up and down, and rear up and down) is fitted as standard equipm ent
to all models except Level 3 and Coupe.
An eight-way elec tric adjus table driver and passenger seat, fitted to Level 3 and optional on som e Level 2 left-hand
drive vehicles, has four extra movements over the four-way, (fore/aft movement and seat-back recliner).
Coupe models are fitted with eight-way electrically adjustable driver and passenger seats, which also include side
impac t airbags and an EZ -entry feature. In addition, the dr iver’s seat in the CV8 is fitted with an integrated mem ory
seat system. Leather trim is standard on all Coupe models.
All other front seats provide manual fore/aft adjustment only.
For f ront and rear s eats, there are two methods of cover as sem bly c onstruction, Surebond and Hook and Loop. All
vehicles with leather trim, plus all Level 2, 3 and coupe have Hook and loop construction.
Surebond cover assemblies are not serviced as they are glued to the seat-back pad. Hook and Loop cover
assemblies are fully serviced and attached in the groves of the seat pad and the corresponding cover.
The rear seat fitted to the Coupe m odel is a new two-passenger design, with a unique construction and adjustable
rear head restraints.
While the remove and replace of the front seatbelt pretensioner assembly is included in this section
for completeness, specific seatbelt and seatbelt pretensioner service procedures are combined in
Section 12M OCCUPANT PROTECTION SYSTEM.
During production of the MY 2003 VY Series vehicles, the front s eat as semblies gained a revised front seat adjus ter
assembly, refer to Figure 1A7-1
This change to the f r ont s eat ass emblies af fected some ser vice oper ations . Where there are changes to the service
procedures, the seat assemblies prior to the running change are referred to as "early type" View A and additional
information has been added to cover the late type seat adjuster assembly, View B.
Figure 1A7-1
These following Cautions apply to service operations detailed in this Section.
CAUTION 1: Accessory and after m arket seat covers MUST NOT be fitted to any vehicle with side airbags unless
approved by the manufactur er. Non-approved seat c overs m ay inhibit the operation of the side airbag, reducing the
protection otherwise provided to the occupants during a side-impact collision.
CAUTION 2: Befor e perform ing any servic e operation on a front seat ass embly, ensure the SRS is disabled. Refer
to Section 12M OCCUPANT PROTECTION SYSTEM.
IMPORTANT: Some of the procedures relating to memory seat diagnosis detailed in 5. DIAGNOSTICS – FRONT
SEAT, COUPE, require the use of both the Priority 1 Key and the Priority 2 Key.
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The four-way electric adjustable driver seat (front up and down, and rear up and down), is controlled by two lift
motor and gearbox assemblies. Each can be operated independently of the other, or operated together to raise or
lower the complete seat assembly.
The eight-way electric adjus table driver and pas senger seats have four extra m ovem ents over the four-way: f ore/af t
movement and seat-back recliner. In addition to the two motor and gearbox assemblies described previously, a
fore/af t m ovem ent m otor dr ives two gearboxes which control s eat forward or rearward positioning. The fourth mo tor
controls the seat-back recliner position.
Each lif t m otor and gear box ass em bly is bolted to the inboard side of the seat height adj ust ass em bly. W hen the lif t
motor is operating, it drives the gearbox which draws in or extends out the mating worm shaft which in turn operates
on a lever and cross-brace. The cross-brace is connected to another lever on the opposite side of the seat height
adjust assem bly and this allows the raising or lowering of that section of the seat. Reversing the polarity on the lift
motor terminals causes the motor to operate in the reverse direction and the seat moves in the opposite direction.
To control seat fore/aft movement, a worm shaft is attached to each seat rail with the movement motor and
gearboxes attached to the seat height adjust assembly. Components making up the adjuster and guide rail
assembly are not serviced due to safety regulations.
The s eat-bac k recliner angle is adj us ted by a recliner m otor attac hed to the inner f r ame. T he motor output shaf t has
a drive gear which is meshed with a driven gear attached to the seat-back frame. Motor operation causes rotation of
the drive gear which turns the driven gear and seat-back frame, thereby altering the seat-back recliner angle.
Reversing the polarity on the recliner motor terminals causes the motor to drive in the reverse direction and the
seat-back m oves in the oppos ite direc tion. Components mak ing up the s eat-bac k recliner mechanis m assembly are
not serviced due to safety regulations.
The Coupe eight-way electric front seat motor and gearboxes have the same function as the Level 3 vehicle. The
front s eat als o incor porates an EZ -entr y feature that provides a s imple one touch mechanis m to m ove the f r ont seat
and allow rear seat passengers to enter or exit the vehicle. A lever on the outer upper corner of the seat-back
disengages the seat-back locking mechanism. An internal micro switch senses when the lever is operated and
signals to the m odule that the EZ-entry f eature has been activated, which in turn drives the seat forward. The seat
fore and af t position is m onitored by a potentiometer (incor porated into the fore/aft drive m otor) and recorded in the
seat module. Once the seat-back is returned to the locked position, the operator must press and hold the seat
return switch to m ove the seat rearwards. When the seat reaches the last recorded location, the af t movem ent will
pause for approximately three seconds before continuing to the fully rearward position.
An internal occupant sensing mat is incorporated into the Coupe front seat cushions. The occupant sensing mat
signals to the seat c ontro l module whenever the seat is oc cupied with a weight in exces s of 15 kg. The module then
prevents the seat from driving forward should the EZ-entry lever be operated.
In addition, the driver’s seat in the CV8 is fitted with an integrated memory seat system. On key-less entry to the
vehicle, the m emory seat system in conj unction with the Body Control Module (BCM) recognises which ignition key
has been used (Priority 1 or Priority 2) and adjusts the seat accordingly .
The memory seat system allows the driver to adjust the seat position to any of the positions stored in memory by
pressing one of the three memory buttons.
Audio and visual feedback for the various functions of the memory seat system is provided. The system has a
green LED and an audio c hime located in the s eat ass embly which are used to indicate m emory saves, the rec all of
priority memory numbers and for seat diagnostic procedures.
All coupe f r ont s eats contain a seat c ontr ol module under the lower side c over. T he s eat c ontrol module f itted to the
memory type seat has a non-volatile memory, so that disconnecting the battery supply from the module does not
erase the seat memory settings.
W atchdog tim ers in the memory seat system lim it the time a seat drive motor can operate. The lift and m ovement
motors are limited to 25 seconds, while the recliner motor is limited to 50 seconds.
1.2 FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY, FOUR-WAY ELECTRIC
CAUTION: For reasons of personal safety, the vehicle must only be driven when the seat is adjusted to
the co rrect d riv ing posit ion . Do n ot adju st t he d riv er’s seat when th e v ehicle is mo v ing as th e seat co uld
move away from the driving position, ca using loss of control.
A seat control adjustment switch (1) is fitted to the
outside of each seat frame. This switch assembly
provides independent control of front and/or rear seat
height (up and down movement).
During seat adjustment, the drive motors will stop
operating at end of travel via an internal thermal cut-
out switch, even if the seat adjustment switch is held
on.
Figure 1A7-2
1.3 FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY, EIGHT-WAY EXCEPT COUPE
CAUTION: For reasons of personal safety, the vehicle must only be driven when the seat is adjusted to
the co rrect d riv ing posit ion . Do n ot adju st t he d riv er’s seat when th e v ehicle is mo v ing as th e seat co uld
move away from the driving position, ca using loss of control.
A seat control adj ustm ent switch is fitted to the outside
of each seat frame. This switch assembly provides
independent control of:
1. Vertical switch - seat-back recliner angle.
2. Horizontal switch - front and rear cushion height
(up and down movement) of the seat along with
fore/ aft movement.
During seat adjustment, the drive motors will stop
operating at end of travel via an internal thermal cut-
out switch, even if the seat adjustment switch is held
on.
Figure 1A7-3
1.4 EZ-ENTRY SYSTEM, COUPE
OCCUPANT SENSING MAT
1. The EZ-entry system provides a one touch
mechanism to move the front seat and allow rear
seat passengers to enter or exit the vehicle. The
EZ-entry system comprises:
An EZ-entry lever (1) on the upper outer side
of the front seat.
A return button (2) in the EZ-entry lever
escutcheon.
An internal occupant sensing mat (3).
The front seat control module (4) located
under the seat.
2. When the EZ-entry lever is un-latched, the seat-
back collapses forward and the seat automatically
launches to the full forward position.
3. The seat will return to the pr e-launch pos ition once
the lever is latched (i.e. the seat-back is returned
to the upright position) and the seat return switch
is pressed and held.
4. If a passenger (or load in excess of 15 kg) is
present in the seat or enters the seat while it is
automatically moving, the movement will cease. If
weight detection causes the EZ-entry function to
cease, a period of one second must pass without
weight before a restart will commence.
Figure 1A7-4
5. The occupant sensing mat (1) is installed inside
the front seat cushions (2). The occupant sensing
mat is a pressure switch with a nominal high or
open circuit condition with no weight on the seat.
The resistance decreases as the weight is
increased. An integral diode is provided within the
occupant sensing mat and is used by the module
to verify connection of the occupant sensing mat
prior to the automatic forward movement of the
seat during the operation of the EZ-entry function.
The module will test whether for the following
conditions on the occupant sensing mat:
Either line connected to ground or battery.
Either line open circuited.
6. Detection of weight over the occupant s ensing m at
(seat cushion) will cause the seat m odule to either
cancel an autom atic forward m ovement or prevent
an automatic forward movement from
commencing. The module should detect a
minimum weight on the seat of 15 kg.
Figure 1A7-5
1.5 FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY, EIGHT-WAY COUPE – NON MEMORY
A seat control adj ustm ent switch is fitted to the outside
of each seat frame. This switch assembly provides
independent control of:
1. Vertical switch - seat-back recliner angle.
2. Horizontal switch - front and rear cushion height
(up and down movement) of the seat along with
fore/ aft movement.
During seat adjustment, the drive motors will stop
operating at end of travel via an internal thermal cut-
out switch, even if the seat adjustment switch is held
on.
The eight-way position switch is disabled during
automatic movement requested by operation of the
EZ-entry function. The switch will be enabled once the
automatic movement is completed or cancelled. The
eight-way position switch is monitored by the module
during automatic movement, and if the switch is
operated, the automatic movement will be cancelled
and the seat will enter the manual mode.
Figure 1A7-6
1.6 FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY, EIGHT-WAY COUPE – MEMORY
The memory seat system comprises:
the seat control module located under the seat lower side cover (refer to Fig. 1A7-3);
the m em ory pos ition switch, which includes m em ory buttons and associated LED, located on the side of the
driver’s seat (refer to Fig. 1A7-6);
the ignition keys;
the body control module (BCM).
The s eat control module has five mem ory sets which allows up to f ive individual seat settings to be s tored. Two
of these memory settings are associated with the priority keys and the remaining three settings correspond to
the memory buttons 1, 2 and 3 located on the side of the driver’s seat.
The memory seat system has two modes of operation; a low-current sleep mode and an awake mode. A
5 minute tim er cir cuit switches the system between m odes as required, and the cur rent m ode is indic ated by the
green LED on the side of the seat. When the LED is illuminated the system is in awake mode, and when the
LED is extinguished, the system is in sleep mode.
The sleep mode is entered when:
the ignition key is in the OFF position, and
there are no active priority signals, and
there are no manual seat adjustments for 5 minutes.
The awake mode is entered when:
the ignition key is in the IGN position, or
the priority signals are active, or
there is a manual seat adjustment, or
a seat memory button is pressed.
Entering the awake mode resets the 5 minute timer.
MEMORY S ETS
There are five memory sets, as follows:
Memory set P1 – Priority Key 1,
Memory set P2 – Priority Key 2,
Memory set 1 – Button 1 on seat,
Memory set 2 – Button 2 on seat, and
Memory set 3 – Button 3 on seat.
Each memory set comprises four co-ordinates for the seat position (in seat control module); seat cushion front
height, seat cushion rear height, seat stroke and backrest position.
A priority key setting can also be stored and recalled by use of one of the three memory buttons on the seat.
MEMORY BUTTONS
The three memory recall buttons, the memory store button and the associated LED are located on the seat lower
side cover close to the front edge of the seat. The memory recall buttons are labelled 1, 2 and 3.
Press and hold a s eat mem ory button to recall the m emory position. Once the s eat has reached the m em orised
position the button can be released. If the button is released before the seat reaches the memorised position,
the seat will simply stop moving. Even though the seat may then be adjusted to a new position, pressing a button
will return the seat to the memory position stored for that button.
To change a mem ory position, adjust the seat with the seat control switch, then press the memory store button
(M) (confir med by a single c hime) followed by the desired m emor y button ( 1, 2 or 3) within 5 seconds. A double
chime will be heard when a new memory is stored.
For safety reasons, no memory button recall is allowed when the ignition is on. However, if a recall is initiated
and the ignition is then set to on, the seat movement recalled from memory will continue until completed.
Pressing any other button after a memory recall is initiated will terminate the recall move.

PRIORITY RECALL FUNCTION
The priority recall signals generated by the BCM wake up the memory seat system to recall the last saved
priority seat positions associated with the ignition key in use (Priority 1 or Priority 2).
For safety reasons, the priority recall function is ac tivated only when the ignition switch is in the OFF position. No
automatic movement of the system occurs when the ignition switch is set to IGN. If a priority move has been
initiated before the ignition tr ansition from O F F to IG N, the system c ompletes the move befor e dis abling the one-
touch or priority recall function.
After the ignition switch is set to IGN, the system notes the active priority key number used. The system only
updates the current memory when the driver makes a manual adjustment to the seat. The update includes the
current seat position.
When the seat is adjusted by the driver using the manual buttons, the current priority memory is updated
immediately after the movement stops.
2. SERVICE OPERATIONS – FRONT SEAT, EXCEPT COUPE
2.1 FRONT SEAT USAGE CHART - EXCEPT COUPE
HOW TO USE THIS CHART
Thirteen front seat configurations are used in MY2003 VY Series Sedan Wagon and Utility vehicles. The
following usage chart is provided to help determine the seat type fitted to the vehicle. This is important prior to
repairs being performed as the failed / damaged part may not be serviceable.
To determine the seat fitted to the vehicle, obtain the vehicle model, which seat requires attention and the seat
cover fabric. Then establish if the vehicle has a side impact airbag and/or manually adjustable lumber support.
Using the chart will lead to the elimination of all other seat combinations, allowing the identification of the type
and the construction of the seat. Finally, refer to the Figure shown in TYPE for a component breakdown of the
front seat assembly.
1. VEHICLE – Vehicle model identification.
2. SEATING – Driver front seat or passenger front seat.
3. FABRIC – Cloth or leather seat covers.
4. TRACK – Indicates the number of directions the electric seat track can be moved, except for the two way
which is manually operated.
5. LUMBER – If the front seat-back is fitted with a manually adjust lumber support.
6. SIAB – If the front seat is fitted with a side impact airbag.
7. CONSTRUCTION – Surebond refers to the seat cover being glued to the seat pad and only serviced as a
cover and pad ass embly. Hook and Loop refer s to the seat c over being able to be attached or removed from
the seat pad and both being serviced as separate parts.
8. TYPE – Identif ies the seat type and provides ref er enc e to the f ollowing illustrations which s how a break down
of the serviced component for each rear seat assembly.

PREREQUISITES
Safety Requirements
When operating the s eat as part of any of the Steps in the diagnosis c harts, ens ure that finger s and lim bs ar e clear
of moving parts.
Equipment
The following equipment is required to diagnose the seats:
1. An unpowered test lamp with a current draw of less than 3 A.
2. A digital multimeter with a minimum impedance of 10 M.
Testing Procedures
The following points must be adhered to when performing diagnostic testing on components:
1. Care must be taken when using testing equipment to diagnose wiring harness connectors. It is preferred that
the technician back probe the connector to avoid terminal damage.
2. When tests are required on connector terminals, utilise the adapters in the connector adaptor kit KM–609 to
prevent damage to the terminals.
3. Unless the multimeter being used has an auto-ranging function, ensure that the correct range is selected.
4. When back-probing connectors, ensure the test lamp earth lead is connected to a suitable earth point on the
vehicle. Ensure that this earth point is not part of the circuit being tested.
Important:
When following the Steps in the diagnosis charts, the exact order of Steps should be observed. If the required
nominal value or result is not achieved at any stage, the problem must be rectified before proceeding any further.

PREREQUISITES
Safety Requirements
When operating the s eat as part of any of the Steps in the diagnosis c harts, ens ure that finger s and lim bs ar e clear
of moving parts.
Equipment
The following equipment is required to diagnose the seats:
1. An unpowered test lamp with a current draw of less than 3 A.
2. A digital multimeter with a minimum impedance of 10 M.
Testing Procedures
The following points must be adhered to when performing diagnostic testing on components:
1. Care must be taken when using testing equipment to diagnose wiring harness connectors. It is preferred that
the technician back probe the connector to avoid terminal damage.
2. When tests are required on connector terminals, utilise the adapters in the connector adaptor kit KM–609 to
prevent damage to the terminals.
3. Unless the multimeter being used has an auto-ranging function, ensure that the correct range is selected.
4. When back-probing connectors, ensure the test lamp earth lead is connected to a suitable earth point on the
vehicle. Ensure that this earth point is not part of the circuit being tested.
Important:
When following the Steps in the diagnosis charts, the exact order of Steps should be observed. If the required
nominal value or result is not achieved at any stage, the problem must be rectified before proceeding any further.

6. SERVICE OPERATIONS - REAR SEAT, SEDAN
6.1 REAR SEAT USAGE CHART - SEDAN
HOW TO USE THIS CHART
Four rear seat configurations are used in MY2003 VY Series Sedan vehicles. The following usage chart is
provided to help determine the seat type fitted to the vehicle. This is important prior to repairs being performed
as the failed / damaged part may not be serviceable.
To determine the seat fitted to the vehicle, obtain the vehicle model, which seat requires attention and the seat
cover fabric. Then establish if the vehicle has an armrest and/or headrest. Using the chart will lead to the
elimination of all other seat com binations, allowing the identification of the type and the c onstruction of the seat.
Finally , refer to the Figure shown in TYPE for a component breakdown of the rear seat assembly.
1. VEHICLE – Vehicle model identification.
2. FABRIC – Cloth or leather seat covers.
3. ARMREST – If the rear seat-back is fitted with an armrest.
4. HEADREST – If the rear seat-back is fitted with a headrest.
5. CONSTRUCTION – Surebond refers to the seat cover being glued to the seat pad and only serviced as a
cover and pad ass embly. Hook and Loop refer s to the seat c over being able to be attached or removed from
the seat pad and both being serviced as separate parts.
6. TYPE – Identif ies the s eat type and provides refer enc e to the f ollowing illustrations which s how a break down
of the serviced component for each rear seat assembly.

7.1 REAR SEAT USAGE CHART - WAGON
HOW TO USE THIS CHART
Three rear seat configurations are used in MY2003 VY Series Wagon vehicles. The following usage chart is
provided to help determine the seat type fitted to the vehicle. This is important prior to repairs being performed
as the failed / damaged part may not be serviceable.
To determine the seat fitted to the vehicle, obtain the vehicle model, which seat requires attention and the seat
cover fabric. Then establish if the vehicle has an armrest and/or headrest. Using the chart will lead to the
elimination of all other seat com binations, allowing the identification of the type and the c onstruction of the seat.
Finally , refer to the Figure shown in TYPE for a component breakdown of the rear seat assembly.
1. VEHICLE – Vehicle model identification.
2. FABRIC – Cloth or leather seat covers.
3. ARMREST – If the rear seat-back is fitted with an armrest.
4. HEADREST – If the rear seat-back is fitted with a headrest.
5. CONSTRUCTION – Surebond refers to the seat cover being glued to the seat pad and only serviced as a
cover and pad ass embly. Hook and Loop refer s to the seat c over being able to be attached or removed from
the seat pad and both being serviced as separate parts.
6. TYPE – Identif ies the s eat type and provides refer enc e to the f ollowing illustrations which s how a breakdown
of the serviced component for each rear seat assembly.
