Model(s): 1996-99 Chrysler (NS) Town & Country 1996-99 Chrysler (GS) Voyager 1996-98 Jeep (ZJ) Grand Cherokee 1996-98 Jeep (ZG) Grand Cherokee (International Market) The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSMM) (on ZJ/ZG the module is for the seat only) detects and remembers where the end of seat travel (called “soft stop”) is in each direction. A soft stop is set in MSMM memory when the position sensing feedback voltage, controlled by a potentiometer on the motor end, fails to change. The feedback voltage potentiometers vary the position sensing feedback voltage based on seat position/movement (no movement, no change in position sensing feedback voltage). The seat motor automatically stops at the soft stop on any subsequent movement so the motor does not run into a stall condition (end of travel). The soft stop limits will be updated any time the MSMM senses a mechanical stall (such as when something is stuck under or behind the seat that causes the seat to stop moving). These soft stops can prevent the seat from being able to have memory positions set over the full range of travel. Also, positions that were previously programmed to locations beyond an updated soft stop limit will not be recalled as they are “out of range.”

The oil leak is internal to the engine so no external oil leakage will be present. Two symptoms of this oil leak condition may be present. The vehicle operator may experience an engine spark knock during acceleration and/or an increase in the amount of engine oil consumed by the engine. DIAGNOSIS
