IMPORTANT
Before performing any Service Operation or other procedure described in this Section, refer to
Section 00 CAUTIONS AND NOTES for correct workshop practices with regard to safety and/or
property damage.
1. GENERAL I NFORMATIO N
The WH Series Statesman and Caprice are fitted with eight-way electrically adjustable driver and front passenger
seats, which also include side impact air bags. In addition, the driver’s seat in the Caprice is fitted with an integrated
memory seat and mirror system which is controlled from a series of buttons located on the side of the driver’s seat.
On key-less entry to the vehicle, the memory seat and mirror system in conjunction with the Body Control Module
(BCM) recognises which ignition key has been used (Priority 1 or Priority 2) and adjusts the seat and external
mirrors accordingly.
The memory seat and mirror system allows the driver to adjust the seat position to any of the positions stored in
memory by pressing one of the control buttons. If reverse gear is selected and the mirror dip button pressed, the
passenger’s side external mirror will automatically dip to a preset position providing a different view of the
passenger’s side of the vehicle during reversing.
Audio and visual feedback for the various functions of the memory seat and mirror system is provided. The system
has a green LED and an audio chime located in the seat assembly which are used to indicate memory saves, the
recall of priority memory numbers and for seat diagnostic procedures.
The external rear vision mirrors on the Caprice are heated, and operate in conjunction with the heated rear window.
The centre rear head restraint is now fitted with a release button to allow downward travel of the head restraint. This
release button is the same type as that fitted to the other head restraints.
This Section should be read in conjunction with Section 1A7 SEAT & SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES in the VT Series
II Service Information, as well as Section 1A7 SEAT & SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES in the VT Series I Service
Information.
IMPORTANT: Some of the procedures detailed in 3.6 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES require the use of both the
Priority 1 Key and the Priority 2 Key.
CAUTION: Accessory and after market seat covers MUST NOT be fitted to any vehicle with side air bags
unless approved by Holden. Non-approved seat covers may inhibit the operation of the side air bag,
reducing the protection otherwise provided to the occupants during a side-impact collision.

1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SEAT A SSEMBLY
Each seat contains four electric, reversible motors. The height of both the front and rear of the seat is controlled by
separate lift motor and gearbox assemblies. Each motor can be operated independently of the other, or operated
together to raise or lower the complete seat assembly. A separate fore/aft movement motor and two gearboxes
control seat forward or rearward positioning. The fourth motor controls the seat backrest recliner position.
Each lift motor and gearbox assembly is bolted to one side of the seat height adjust assembly and when each lift
motor is operating, the lift motor drives the gearbox, which then 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 assembly 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.
When the movement motor is operating, the gearboxes (driven by the movement motor) draw in or extend out each
mating worm shaft. Since each worm shaft is held from moving, the action of the gearboxes meshing with the worm
shafts causes the seat to move (via the seat height adjust assembly) in one direction. Reversing the polarity on the
movement motor terminals causes the motor to operate in the reverse direction and the seat moves in the opposite
direction.
Seat backrest recliner angle is adjusted by a recliner motor attached to the inner seat backrest frame. The motor
output shaft has a drive gear which is meshed with a driven gear attached to the seat backrest frame. Motor
operation causes rotation of the drive gear which turns the driven gear and seat backrest frame, thereby altering the
seat backrest recliner angle. Reversing the polarity on the recliner motor terminals causes the motor to drive in the
reverse direction and the seat backrest moves in the opposite direction.
The driver's seat also contains a seat control module under the lower side cover. The seat control module has a
non-volatile memory , so that removing the battery supply from the module does not erase the seat memory settings.
The lift, movement and recliner motors are common between each seat, except that each motor on the driver's seat
has a potentiometer attached. The potentiometers are used as seat position sensors by the memory seat and mirror
system. The wiring harnesses used for the passenger's side and driver's side seats are different.
Watchdog timers in the memory seat and mirror system limit the time a seat drive motor can operate. The lift and
movement motors are limited to 25 seconds, while the recliner motor is limited to 50 seconds.
Fig. 1A7-1 illustrates the seat, seat controls and drive motors.

MEMORY SEAT AND MIRROR SYSTEM
The memory seat and mirror system comprises:
the seat control module located under the seat lower side cover (refer to Fig. 1A7-1);
the memory position switch, which includes memory and mirror dip buttons and associated LED, located on the
side of the driver’s seat (refer to Fig. 1A7-2);
the external rear vision mirrors;
the mirror switch module located in the driver’s door; and
the mirror switch located on the driver’s door.
The seat control module has five memory sets which allows up to five individual seat and mirror settings to be
stored. 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 and mirror system has two modes of operation; a low-current sleep mode and an awake mode. A
5 minute timer circuit switches the system between modes as required, and the current mode is indicated 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 or mirror 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, or
the mirror dip button is pressed.
Entering the awake mode resets the 5 minute timer.
Memory Sets
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 the following information:
four co-ordinates for the seat position (in seat control module),
the mirror dip status (on / off) (in seat control module),
two co-ordinates for the normal mirror position (in mirror module for each mirror), and
two co-ordinates for the mirror dip position (in mirror module for each mirror).
Memory Buttons
The three memory buttons and the associated LED are located on the seat lower side cover close to the front edge
of the seat (refer to Fig. 1A7-2). The memory buttons are labelled 1, 2 and 3.
Pressing button 1, 2 or 3 for less than 2 seconds activates the memory recall on release of that button. A low chime
acknowledges the initial button press. The one-touch button recall is only active when the vehicle ignition switch is in
the OFF or ACC position.
Pressing button 1, 2 or 3 for more than 2 seconds updates the system’s memory to the current seat and mirror
positions for that button, including mirror dip positions and status. A high chime acknowledges the system save.
Memory updating is active irrespective of the ignition switch position.
For safety reasons, no memory button recall is allowed when the ignition is on. If a recall is initiated and the ignition
then set to on, the seat and mirror movement recalled from memory will continue until completed.
Pressing any other button, including the mirror switch on the driver’s door, after a memory recall is initiated will
terminate the recall move.

Reversing Mirror Dip Function
The mirror dip button is located on the lower seat cover to the rear of the memory buttons and LED (refer to Fig.
1A7-2). The mirror dip button is labelled with a mirror graphic.
The mirror dip button is only active when the ignition is on and reverse gear is selected. Pressing the mirror dip
button toggles the internal mirror dip flag, which initiates a high chime for enabled, or a low chime for disabled.
With the ignition on and the mirror dip flag enabled, selecting reverse gear for longer than 0.5 second sets the
passenger’s external mirror to the dip position. Pressing the button again, or selecting another gear, returns the
mirror to the normal driving position.
Priority Function
The priority recall signals generated by the BCM wake up the memory seat and mirror system to recall the last
saved priority seat and mirror positions associated with the ignition key in use (Priority 1 or Priority 2).
For safety reasons, the priority recall function is activated 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 transition from OFF to IGN, the system completes the move before disabling 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 or mirrors. The update
includes the current seat and mirror position and the last reverse mirror dip position.
When the seat or mirror is adjusted by the driver using the manual buttons, the current priority memory is updated
immediately after the movement stops. Toggling the mirror dip button does not alter the stored normal or dip
settings.
Module Control Signals
Four electrical connectors are located on the seat control module. The location of each connector is shown in Fig.
1A7-3 and circuit information is shown in Fig. 1A7-6. The seat control module connectors are:
the memory and position connector YB225,
the power connector YB227,
the drive motor connector YB228, and
the drive motor potentiometer connector YB229.
The memory and position connector YB225 connects the eight-way seat position switch to the seat control module.
Whenever a switch position is selected on the eight-way seat position switch, an earth is applied to the appropriate
input terminal to indicate to the seat control module that a change in seat position is required.
System power and earth as well as the priority key, reverse gear and heated window control signals are all applied
to the seat control module via the power connector YB227. The 12 signals on this connector are:
The 12 V on circuit 540, which supplies the power for the seat drive motors.
The 12 V on circuit 641, which supplies the power for the seat control module.
The 12 V on circuit 139, which indicates the status of the ignition switch to the seat control module.
The Priority 1 (circuit 782) and Priority 2 (circuit 783) signals, which indicate to the seat control module which
priority key has been used to open the vehicle. This is used to set the seat and mirrors to the position required by
the priority key.
The Reverse signal on circuit 24, which indicates to the seat control module that the reverse gear has been
selected. This is used to dip the mirror on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.
The Heated Rear Window signal on circuit 192, which controls the application of the supply voltage to the
external mirrors.
The mirror serial data bus comprises three circuits; a data line (circuit 925), a 12 V supply line (circuit 929) and
an earth line (circuit 920).
The earth for the seat drive motors is provided by circuit 156.
The earth for the seat control module is provided by circuit 151.
The drive motor connector YB228 provides the power and earth circuits for each of the four seat drive motors.
The drive motor potentiometer connector YB229 provides the power and earth circuits for the potentiometers as
well as the seat drive motor position signal from the wiper of each potentiometer.
DIAGNOSTIC READOUT
The green LED located on the side of the driver’s seat is used to indicate the seat mode of operation as well as to
read out the various diagnostic trouble codes stored within the seat control module for fault diagnosis purposes.
The following table details the indications given by the LED in normal operation. For details on the various
diagnostic trouble codes, refer to 3.3 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES in this Section.
MANUAL CONTROLS
The external rear vision mirrors can be controlled manually from the interior of the vehicle by the mirror switch
mounted in the driver's side front door pull handle. For further details, refer to Section 12H ELECTRICA LLY
ADJUSTABLE REAR VISION MIRRORS of the VT Series I Service Information.
An eight-way seat position switch is fitted to the outside of each seat frame. The horizontal switch provides
independent control of front and rear height (up and down movement) and fore/aft movement of seat, while the
vertical switch controls the seat backrest recliner angle.
During manual seat adjustment, the seat control module monitors the position of each motor axis and will shut down
the drive motor just before reaching the end of the track, even if the eight-way seat position switch is held on.

3. DIAGNOSTICS
3.1 GENERAL DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION
The coded flashing of the LED and the seat chimes are useful tools in the diagnosis of sy stem problems.
The diagnostic function of the seat control module has four individual diagnostic modes to assist in system fault
diagnosis and repair. These are:
Vehicle Interface Test.
Display Stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
Diagnostic Switch Test.
Drive Motor Potentiometer Calibration.
VEHICLE INTERFACE TEST
The Vehicle Interface Test is a comprehensive check of all components of the memory seat and mirror system. If a
fault is detected during this check the corresponding Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored in memory . If the
check is completed successfully, DTC 12 (No Fault) is stored in memory.
DISPLAY STORED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
DTC stored in the seat control module can be read out in this mode.
DIAGNOSTIC SWITCH TEST
The Diagnostic Switch Test checks each switch and button used in the seat and mirror circuit. A separate chime is
generated for each component tested successfully.
DRIVE MOTOR POTENTIOMETER CALIBRATION
The drive motor potentiometer calibration mode is used to align a new seat control module, drive motor or motor
potentiometer to the existing seat assembly.
3.2 DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
To access the diagnostic function, press and hold the mirror dip button on the side of the driver’s seat, while turning
the ignition switch from the OFF position to the IGN position three times in 6 seconds, leaving the ignition switch in
the IGN position.
NOTE: Do not turn the ignition switch too rapidly. The switch must be in the OFF and IGN positions long enough for
the system to register the actual position.
The seat chime sounds a constant tone and the green LED on the side of the driver’s seat flashes rapidly to indicate
that the diagnostic function has been entered. Using the seat memory buttons, select the actual diagnostic mode
required as follows:
To enter the Vehicle Interface Test diagnostic mode, press memory button 1 followed by memory button 3.
Successful entry is indicated by a repetitive chime.
To display the stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes, press memory button 1 followed by memory button 1 again.
Successful entry is indicated by the LED flashing rapidly.
To enter the Diagnostic Switch Test diagnostic mode, press memory button 3 followed by memory button 3
again. Successful entry is indicated by a different tone sounding when any button or switch is pressed.
To enter the Drive Motor Potentiometer Calibration diagnostic mode, press memory button 2 followed by
memory button 3. Successful entry is indicated by a repetitive chime at a 2 second interval.
To exit the diagnostic function, set the ignition switch to the OFF position. If in the Vehicle Interface Test diagnostic
mode a timer controls the mode exit process after turning the ignition off.
3.3 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
During the Vehicle Interface Test, the seat control module communicates with the mirrors and the mirror switch
module over the mirror serial data bus. The seat control module polls each component on the bus individually, and
each component responds to the poll with a unique message. Loss of communication with any of these components
will cause a DTC to be set.
DTC are stored in the seat control module as two-digit codes, with each digit being a number from 1 to 5. If a DTC
is present in the seat control module, other than DTC 12, the green LED on the side if the driver’s seat will flash
three times as the ignition is turned from IGN to OFF.
Upon entering the Display Stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes mode, the green LED provides the diagnostic readout
as follows:
Flashes rapidly to indicate that a DTC is about to be displayed.
Extinguishes briefly before flashing the ten’s digit.
Extinguishes briefly before flashing the unit’s digit.
Flashes rapidly to indicate that the next DTC is about to be displayed.
The DTC are displayed sequentially down the list and repeated until the ignition is switched off, or the diagnostic
mode times out after 1 minute. DTC are cleared by turning the ignition off.
The following table details the complete list of DTC numbers, the corresponding fault description and proposed
corrective action.

44 – 45 Not used.
51 – 55 Not used.
3.4 PRELIMINARY SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
When investigating any complaint of a memory seat and mirror system problem or malfunction, always begin
diagnosis with a Vehicle Interface Test, refer to 3.6 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES in this Section.
If the Vehicle Interface Test does not find a likely source of the fault, the Diagnostic Circuit Check should then be
carried out.
3.5 DIAGNOSING FAULTS WHICH DO NOT SET A DTC
STALLED MOTOR
If a seat motor has been energised and the corresponding potentiometer (position sensor) does not change state,
then the seat control module determines that the motor has stalled, and removes electrical power from the motor
and sets an internal motor-stalled flag. A DTC is not logged for this fault condition.
To reset the motor-stalled flag and apply power to the motor, push the eight-way seat position switch in the
appropriate direction for 2 seconds.
To check for correct operation of the seat motors, use the Drive Motor and Motor Potentiometer Test. Refer to
3.6 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES in this Section.
SHORTED SWITCH CONTACT
If the seat control module detects that the eight-way seat position switch has been in an active position for too long,
a shorted switch contact condition is declared by the module. A DTC is not logged for this fault condition.
The maximum continuous operating time for the seat fore/aft and lift motors is 25 seconds before a shorted switch
contact condition is declared. For the seat backrest recliner motor, this is extended to a maximum of 50 seconds.
To check for correct operation of the eight-way seat position switch, use the Diagnostic Switch Test. Refer to
3.6 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES in this Section.
3.6 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
INTRODUCTION
The following charts are designed to provide fast and efficient fault location within the memory seat and mirror
system. Always begin diagnosis with the Vehicle Interface Test which verifies that all the components of the system
are functioning correctly. If the Vehicle Interface Test detects a fault, a DTC will set to assist the fault finding
process.
If the Vehicle Interface Test does not find a likely source of the fault, the Diagnostic Circuit Check should then be
carried out.
Some of the diagnostic procedures require the use of both priority keys.
When carry ing out wiring checks as directed by the diagnostic charts, rather than probe terminals and connectors
with incorrect sized multimeter connections, use the adaptors contained in the test adaptor kit KM-609. This will
prevent any possibility of spreading or damaging wiring harness terminals which may later cause a system
intermittent failure.
The location of the seat control module and connectors is shown in Fig. 1A7-12.
