Seat Track: Description and Operation
Power Seat Track
POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the power seat option, utilize a power seat track. Three reversible DC motors are incorporated into the power seat track. The
motors are connected to worm-drive gearboxes that move the seat track through a combination of screw-type drive units.
The front and rear of the seat are operated by different motors. They can be raised or lowered independently of each other. When the center power seat
switch is pushed in the Up or Down direction, both the front and rear motors operate in unison.
Each motor contains a self-resetting circuit breaker to protect it from overload. Consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit breakers must not be
allowed to continue, or the motors may be damaged. The power seat track cannot be repaired, and is serviced only as a complete assembly. If any
component in this assembly is inoperative or damaged, the entire power seat track must be replaced,
OPERATION
When a power seat switch is actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are applied through the power seat switch contacts to the appropriate motor or
motors. The motor and drive unit operate to move the seat in the selected direction until the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the power seat
track is reached. When the switch is moved in the opposite direction, the battery feed and ground path to the motor is reversed through the switch
contacts. This causes the motor to run in the opposite direction.
