Lexus NX: Power Seat does not Return to Memorized Position

Lexus NX Service Manual / Vehicle Interior / Seat / Front Power Seat Control System (w/ Memory) / Power Seat does not Return to Memorized Position

DESCRIPTION

When either the M1, M2 or M3 switch is pressed, the outer mirror control ECU assembly (for Driver Side) sends a switch signal to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication. Then, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) sends a recall request signal to the front power seat switch LH. The front power seat switch LH operates each motor to achieve each memorized position value.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • The front power seat control system (w/ Memory) uses the CAN communication system. First, confirm that there is no malfunction in the CAN communication system. Refer to the How to Proceed with Troubleshooting procedure.

  • The seat position will not be stored if the SET switch and 2 or more of the seat memory switches (for example, M1 switch and M2 switch) are pressed simultaneously.

    If a memorizing operation has failed, release all switches. The seat memory function does not operate unless the switches are released.

  • The seat will not return to the memorized position if 2 or more of the seat memory switches (for example, M1 switch and M2 switch) are pressed simultaneously.

    If a restoring operation has failed, release all switches. The seat memory restoring function does not operate unless the switches are released.

  • Before replacing the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU), refer to the Smart Access System with Push-button Start (for Entry Function).
