Module-Memory Mirror
MODULE-MEMORY MIRROR
DESCRIPTION
There are two Memory Mirror Modules (these are sometimes referred to as Driver Door Modules (DDM) and Passenger Door Modules (PDM)) within
the memory system. One is located in the driver door and one in the passenger door, just behind the door trim panel. The modules send a bus message to
the power mirrors to adjust them to a preset position when a memory recall request has been made.
The memory mirror modules also act as an interface in each door for electrical functions (door lock switches and door ajar switches).
The Memory System makes available for immediate recall personalized preferences of the following:
-
Automatic temperature control settings.
-
Outside mirror positions.
-
Power adjustable brake and accelerator pedal position.
-
Power seat horizontal, vertical, recliner, and easy entry positions.
-
Radio push button station selections.
The major components of the Memory System are:
-
Memory Selector Switch - located in the driver door trim panel.
-
Driver Memory Mirror Module (DMMM) - located in the driver door, behind the trim panel.
-
Passenger Memory Mirror Module (PMMM) - located in the passenger door, behind the trim panel.
-
Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) - located at ignition key cylinder.
-
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Transmitter - located with ignition key.
-
Memory Seat Module (MSM) - located underneath the driver seat and also controls the Adjustable Pedals.
-
Radio - located in the instrument panel center stack.
-
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) - located in the instrument panel center stack.
The memory recall is available at the press of a button on the drivers door trim panel or, by using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter if it is
programmed to trigger the recall.
Radio settings include up to 20 push button presets (10 AM and 10 FM), and the last station selection, even if it is not one of the 20 preset selections.
OPERATION
The memory mirror module receives input from the door lock switches and sends that message to the cluster for door lock operation (vehicles equipped
with memory system only). It also controls the mirror adjustment by receiving input from the mirror switch on the door trim panel. Sensors in the mirrors
act as inputs to the memory mirror module in order to position the mirrors to presets by the driver(s). The power supply to the mirrors is supplied by the
mirror memory modules. On vehicles equipped with a memory system, the front door ajar switches are inputs to the memory mirror module. The
modules use this information for door lock inhibit etc.
A memory setting is saved by pressing the "set" button, then pressing either the memory "1" or "2" button within 5 seconds of pressing the "set" button.
A memory setting is recalled by pressing either the memory "1" or "2" button, or by pressing the unlock button on a "linked" Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter.
For driver safety, memorized settings can not be recalled if the transmission is in a position other than Park or the seat belt is latched.
