DESCRIPTION

This system has two indicator lights. One of the indicator lights is built into the fold seat switch. This indicator light receives power from the fold seat control ECU. It comes on or blinks when the system detects that an object is caught or when the seat operation conditions are not met.

The other indicator light is on the combination meter. This indicator light comes on when the reclining motor or fold seat control ECU is not initialized, any seat legs are released, or when the seatback is outside the reclining operation range.
