Seat Position Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem

The seat position sensor tracks where your seat is. If it doesn't send a good signal to the computer about the seat's location, it triggers this code.

The seat position sensor should read a specific voltage corresponding to the seat's position. If the voltage is outside the normal range (generally around 0.5V to 4.5V), the computer sees this as a problem.

Don't just throw parts at it. Walk through these in order — each step tells you whether to keep going or stop and fix what you found.

1. 1Inspect the wiring and connectors for damage or corrosion. Repair as needed. Decision: If repaired, clear code and retest. If issue persists, move to step 2.
2. 2With the key on, measure the voltage at the seat position sensor connector. Decision: If voltage is within 0.5V to 4.5V, the sensor is likely working. If not, replace the sensor. If the voltage is good, move to step 3.
3. 3Check for binding or obstruction in the seat movement. Ensure the track is clear and the mechanism operates smoothly. Decision: If seat moves freely, all clear. If not, rectify the obstruction.

• Faulty seat position sensor
• Damaged wiring or connectors
• Corroded connector terminals
• Seat movement obstruction or jammed seat mechanism
