A power folding third row seat is available on some models. The seat configuration is that of a 60/40 split bench
seat.

The power folding seat offers convenient one-touch operation. Pressing a button on the D-pillar switch once
moves the power folding seat into the desired position, allowing the operator the freedom to walk away. The left
and right seats can be folded individually or together as desired.

The power folding third row seat adjusts to the following positions using the switches in left-side D-pillar:



Open seats to normal position



Stow seats in floor



Fold seatbacks flat



Tilt seats for tailgate mode

Both seat backs can be adjusted individually for occupant comfort. This is accomplished with a field effect type

recliner switch that is located in each outboard seat cushion cover.

The major components of the power folding third row seat are:



The seat leg latch release actuator and cable assembly (1)



The seat frame assembly (2)



The stow motor assembly (3)



The seat leg latch actuator position switches (4)



The seat leg assemblies that include the latches and cable mounting hardware (5)



The power folding third row seat control module (6)

OPERATION

The third row folding seat system receives battery voltage from a 40 amp fuse in the Totally Integrated Power
Module (TIPM). Power is supplied to the system in any key position except START. If the Folding Seat
Module (FSM) detects that the key is in the START position, it will stop seat motor operation. The FSM will
hold the seat in its current position until the engine crank event has completed and then continue the requested
movement to completion.

The FSM uses inputs from the recliner switches, D-pillar seat switch which includes the seat selector and seat
mode switches, the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus, hall sensors located in each seat motor and seat
leg latch switches to determine the proper control of the third row seat motors.

The FSM receives analog inputs from the seat selector switch. The seat selector switch is an integral part of the
D-pillar seat switch. The FSM uses the seat selector switch analog input to decode which seat(s) it is to control
(i.e. Left, Right or Both simultaneously). The FSM uses the seat selector switch input combined with the seat
mode switch inputs (Normal, Stow, Fold, and Tailgate) to determine which seating mode is being requested for
each seat. The seat mode switch is also an integral part of the D-pillar seat switch.

The FSM is capable of adjusting the seat(s) to the requested position when it receives the proper momentary
signal from the seat mode switch input. The possible seat modes are:



Seated - the third row seat backrest is up and the seat bench is in a position to allow an occupant to sit
facing forward in the vehicle. All seat leg latches are fully latched.



Stow - the third row seat backrest is folded down and the seat assembly (right, left or both seats) is fully
stowed into the floor of the vehicle.



Fold - the third row seat backrest is folded down onto the seat bench. All seat leg latches are fully latched.



Tailgate - the third row seat backrest is fully reclined (i.e. At rear recliner hard stop). The seat bench is
raised perpendicular to the floor and the seat backrest is positioned to allow an occupant to sit on it facing
rearward in the vehicle.

The FSM also receives analog inputs from the right and left seat recliner switches. The FSM uses these switch
inputs to determine the required control of the right seat back and left seat back motor outputs. The FSM is

capable of moving the seat back recliner in both the forward or rearward direction when it detects a recliner
switch (right and/or left seat) being activated. The module can operate the recliner motors independently or
simultaneously in both directions. Seat recliner operation via the recliner switches is inactive when the seat is
not in the seated position. Rearward travel of the seat back recliner is limited by a mechanical stop. The FSM
limits the forward recliner travel to the soft stop location learned in the routine. See Electrical - Power
Systems/Power Seats - Standard Procedure.

The power folding system includes six motors total, three motors in each side of the seat. A small motor
disengages the leg latches, another motor stows and unstows the seat, and a third motor reclines and folds the
seat back flat. The stow and recline motors contain a hall sensor that provides inputs to the FSM for seat
position and motor speed.

The system also includes obstacle detection for safe operation. When the system detects an obstacle the motors
will stop and reverse the motion for a brief period. If the FSM detects an obstruction preventing it to back off by
the required distance, the FSM shall abort all seat movement. The obstacle detection feature is not required
during seat recliner adjustments that are activated by the right or left recliner switches. The obstacle detection
feature is deactivated when the seat is (approximately 100 mm) before reaching the fully latched position to
ensure best possible latching. Obstacle detection is also inactive during motor movements that result from
diagnostic scan tool active commands.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING

THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT

In order to obtain conclusive testing of the third row power folding seat system, the Controller Area Network
(CAN) bus, and all of the electronic modules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the seat system
components must be checked. Use of a scan tool and the proper diagnostic information is necessary to
accurately diagnose and repair the third row power folding seat system.

If the seats exhibit an interrupted or jerky motion, ensure the wire harness is connected correctly. Repair any
wiring problems and retest the third row power folding seat system. Refer to SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS
for Town & Country and/or SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS for Grand Caravan for complete circuit
schematic or connector pin-out information.

Before any testing of the third row power folding seat system is attempted, the battery should be fully-charged.

STANDARD PROCEDURE

THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT POSITION CALIBRATION (LEFT SIDE)

NOTE:

Vehicles equipped with the third row power folding seat system utilize a low
voltage cut-off feature. This feature turns off the 12 V power to the power seat
system anytime vehicle voltage is below 10.6 V. Be certain to check the vehicle
electrical system for proper voltage anytime the power seat system appears
inoperative.

Any time a third row power folding seat assembly or component is removed, replaced or adjusted, DTC B1E4D
is present, or Left Rear Seat Position state is unknown or does not match the seats position, a rear seat position
calibration must be performed. This calibration enables the third row power folding seat control module to learn
or relearn information (travel limits, resistance to seat travel, etc.) which allows it to perform properly and
safely. To perform a rear seat position calibration do the following:

1. Obtain an appropriate scan tool.

2. Connect the scan tool to the vehicle and check for any third row power folding seat system stored trouble

codes, correct and erase any stored codes.

3. Ensure that all four seat legs are securely latched to the floor strikers.

4. Using the scan tool, check the latch switch states for both seats. If OK, proceed to 5. If not OK, cycle

effected seat to stow and then back to normal. Recheck the latch switch states for both seats. If OK,
proceed to 5. If seat fails to latch, diagnose the problem using a scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic
service information.

5. Using the scan tool, select the third row power folding seat module menu, Miscellaneous Functions and

select the Write Valid Left Rear Seat position Test.

6. Using the scan tool select the correct position of the left side third row seat to match the actual position of

the seat.

7. Using a scan tool check "routine status" for a pass or fail message. If the calibration routine did not pass,

Refer to the appropriate diagnostic service information for system diagnosis and repair. Rerun the
calibration routine following seat repair procedure.

In order to obtain conclusive testing of the third row power folding seat system, the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus, and all of the electronic modules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the third row
power folding seat system components must be checked. Any diagnosis of the third row power folding seat
system should begin with, the use of a scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic service information.

THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT POSITION CALIBRATION (RIGHT SIDE)

Any time a third row power folding seat assembly or component is removed, replaced or adjusted, DTC B1E52
is present, or Right Rear Seat Position state is unknown or does not match the seats position, a rear seat position
calibration must be performed. This calibration enables the third row power folding seat control module to learn
or relearn information (travel limits, resistance to seat travel, etc.) which allows it to perform properly and
safely. To perform a rear seat position calibration do the following:

NOTE:

The power folding seats must both be latched before the seat position
calibration routine can be initiated. Failure to do so will result in calibration
routine failure.
