Durango 2WD V8-5.7L VIN 2 (2007)
The memory system "Easy Entry and /Exit" feature provides the driver with more room to enter or exit the vehicle. The Easy Entry and Exit feature is
disabled when the vehicle leaves the factory. An authorized dealer can enable this feature. When the seat is in a memorized position, it will move
rearward 55 millimeters or to the end of its travel, whichever occurs first, when the key is removed from the ignition switch lock cylinder. The seat will
return to the memory position when the driver turns the vehicle's ignition switch out of the LOCK position.
The memory system "learns" the seat and adjustable pedal motor maximum end positions when the motor reaches the limit of travel in any direction and
stalls. Subsequently, movement will stop just short of that position to avoid extra stress on the motors and mechanisms. If the system learned a maximum
position as a result of an obstruction, as for instance if a large object was placed on the floor behind the seat, the system can relearn the "true" maximum
position through manually operating the power seat after the obstruction is removed.
NOTE: It is normal for the power accessories contained in the memory system to stop at the maximum "learned" position and then continue to the
"true" maximum position when the control switch is released and then applied in the same direction a second time.
Certain functions and features of the memory system rely upon resources shared with other electronic modules in the vehicle over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) bus. The CAN bus allows the sharing of sensor information. This helps to reduce wire harness complexity, internal controller hardware,
and component sensor current loads. At the same time, this system provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics, and allows the addition of many
new feature capabilities. For diagnosis of these electronic modules or of the CAN bus, the use of a scan tool and the proper diagnostic information are
needed.
The tilt mirrors in reverse feature provides for tilting the sideview (outside) mirrors down a predetermined angle, providing a better view of the ground
next to the rear portion of the vehicle. The tilt mirrors in reverse feature is disabled when the vehicle leaves the factory. An authorized dealer can enable
this feature. Operation of the tilt mirrors is as follows:
-
Sideview mirrors will tilt down when the vehicle transmission is shifted into Reverse.
-
Sideview mirrors will return to the original position when the vehicle transmission is shifted out of Reverse.
ADJUSTABLE PEDALS
The pedals swing on a large arc, the radius and angle of which were selected on the basis of ergonomic studies, that puts them in the proper position for
use by the smaller driver - higher and angled upward as well as rearward. Powered by the small electric motor driving a gear train at each pedal,
adjustment is precise, quiet, and smooth throughout the range. A paddle-type switch on the instrument panel to the left of the steering column actuates
the electric motor-driven mechanism through the memory seat module (MSM). Pushing up the paddle brings the pedals closer and vice versa. Movement
stops when the switch is released. MSM logic prevents pedal adjustment when the automatic speed control (cruise control) is set (controlling speed), and
when the transmission is in reverse. This feature protects against a loss of reference position when neither foot is on the pedal.
