Honda Pilot: Driving Position Memory System Description - Components

Power Seat Control Unit/Power Seat Adjustment Switch

Power seat control unit/power seat adjustment switch is located in the recline cover. It combines the slide, the recline, the height switch, and the control unit.

Power Seat Motors/Seat Position Sensors

Each motor has a sensor that detects motor rotation and sends a pulse to the power seat control unit when the motor rotates. The control unit stores the number of pulses in its memory, and the seat position is memorized.

Power Mirror Actuators/Position Sensors

By means of a tilt position sensor and swing position sensor, the power mirror control unit detects the voltage changes caused by the movements of the mirrors. These voltage changes are stored in memory, and the power mirror positions are memorized for each stored driving position.

Driving Position Memory System Description - Control/Function

Memorizing a Seat and Mirror

Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, and then move the seat and the mirrors to the desired position. Press and hold the SET button on the driving position memory switch. A single beep will be heard and both of the green LED will begin to flash. Press No. 1 or No. 2 to match the remote that is to be used. There will be two more beeps confirming that the seat and the mirror positions have been memorized. The LED will remain lit, unless the seat and the mirrors are moved from the memorized position.

Memorized Position Recall with the Remotes

After the seat and the mirror positions have been memorized, the seat will move backward from the memorized position when the doors unlock and the driver's door is opened. The seat and the mirrors move to the memorized position after the vehicle is turned to the ON mode. The green LED corresponding with that remote will stay lit until the position is changed or the vehicle is turned to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

Memorized Customized Setting Recall with the Remotes

Customize setting are controlled independently by remotes (Driver 1 and Driver 2).

Reverse Mirror Control

When shifting the transmission into R position with the power mirror selector switch in Left (or Right) position, the driver's (or passenger's) side mirror tilts down automatically to help the driver's view. The mirror will return to the previous position when shifting position is out of R position. The reverse mirror control is cancelled if the power mirror selector switch is in the center position.

Driving Position Memory System Description - Overview

The driver's seat and the power mirror have a memory feature. All the adjustments can be memorized by pressing the SET button on the driving memory switch. Pressing the appropriate position button will move the seat and the mirrors to the memorized positions.

Along with the seat, the power door lock settings will also be memorized based on which remote (Driver 1 or Driver 2) is used.
