Replacement of the rotor is required because it does not meet
design specifications.
Some conditions indicate that a service or part replacement
is suggested because the part is close to the end of its useful life
or addresses a customer's need, convenience or request. If a
customer's vehicle has one of these conditions, the procedure may be
only to suggest service.
Example:
An exhaust pipe is rusted, corroded or weak, but no leaks are
present. In this case, the exhaust pipe has not failed.
However, there is evidence that the pipe may need replacement
in the near future. Replacement of the pipe may be suggested
for the customer's convenience in avoiding a future problem.
Example:
The customer desires improved ride and/or handling, but the
vehicle's shocks or struts have not failed. In this case,
replacement may be suggested to satisfy the customer's
wishes. In this case, replacement of the shocks or struts may
not be sold as a requirement.
A customer, of course, has the choice of whether or not a
shop will service his or her vehicle. He or she may decide not to
follow some of your suggestions. When a repair is required, a MAP
shop must refuse partial service on that system if, in the judgment of
the service provider, proceeding with the work could create or
continue an unsafe condition. When a procedure states that required
or suggested repair or replacement is recommended, the customer must
be informed of the generally acceptable repair/replacement options
whether or not performed by the shop.
When presenting suggested repairs to the customer, you must
present the facts, allowing the customer to draw their own conclusions
and make an informed decision about how to proceed.
The following reasons may be used for required and suggested
services. These codes are shown in the "Code" column of the MAP
Uniform Inspection & Communications Standards that follow:
Reasons to Require Repair or Replacement
A - Part no longer performs intended purpose
B - Part does not meet a design specification (regardless of
performance)
C - Part is missing
NOTE: When a repair is required, the shop must refuse partial
service to the system in question, if the repair creates
or continues an unsafe condition.
Reasons to Suggest Repair or Replacement
1 - Part is close to the end of its useful life (just above
discard specifications, or weak; failure likely to occur
soon, etc.)
2 - To address a customer need, convenience, or request (to
stiffen ride, enhance performance, eliminate noise, etc.)
3 - To comply with maintenance recommended by the vehicle's
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
4 - Technician's recommendation based on substantial and
informed experience
NOTE: Suggested services are always optional. When presenting
suggested repairs to the customer, you must present the
facts, allowing the customer to draw their own conclusions

control module before starting diagnosis or repair procedure, as this
connection is disturbed when Cruise Command System Tester (AM PC-1-R)
is used. Poor connection at this point may be improperly diagnosed as
control module malfunction.
Brake light and clutch switches should be properly adjusted.
Ensure that all vacuum lines are correctly routed and tightly
connected.
CRUISE COMMAND SYSTEM TESTS
Testing is performed with Cruise Command System Tester (AM
PC-1-R). Remove wire harness connector from control module. Connect
tester to wire harness connector. Perform tests as part of service
diagnosis to determine cause and correction of system malfunction.
Various tester lights are associated with specific components,
circuits, etc.

1988 Defoggers
REAR WINDOW
Jeep: All Models
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
System consists of 2 vertical bus bars and horizontal rows of
heating elements fused to inside of glass, a control switch, an
indicator light, and timer relay.
The grid feed wire is connected to bus bar on driver's side
of window. Ground bus bar is on right side of vehicle. Timer/relay
receives current from fuse block. A circuit breaker protects defogger
circuit.
NOTE: On some Jeep models, defogger switch and electric tailgate
switch are serviced as an assembly.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
NOTE: Control switch testing is not available for Wrangler models.
1) On Cherokee, Comanche and Wagoneer models, turn ignition
switch to "ON" position. Check for current at "I" and "B" terminals.
See Fig. 1 . If there is no current, check circuit and repair as
necessary. Make sure that switch has a good ground through wire
connected to "G" terminal.
2) With a good ground circuit and ignition switch in "ON"
position, current should be present at "L" terminal. If there is no
current, replace control switch.

3) On Grand Wagoneer models, turn ignition switch to "ON"
position and press defogger switch. Separate wiring harness at
connector under dash. Connect a 12-volt test light from Purple wire to

1988 Power Door Locks
JEEP
DESCRIPTION
Jeep vehicles with power door locks use a motor-actuated lock
system, controlled by rocker switches. Operation of switch assembly
controls the actuator motor.
Power door locks are protected by a 30-amp circuit breaker
located in the fuse block. Power door locks will not operate from
outside the vehicle.
TESTING
SWITCH
Using ohmmeter, test switches for continuity. Connect
ohmmeter across terminals as shown. See Fig. 1. Continuity should
exist between terminals in all positions.
Fig. 1: Checking Switch Continuity
Courtesy of Chrysler Motors.
ACTUATOR MOTOR
Connect ammeter to actuator motor terminals. Operate door
switch and note reading. Current draw should not exceed 8 amps at room
temperature. Actuator should complete full travel within one second.
Replace actuator motor if not within specification.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
1) Disconnect harness connector from fuse block. Using test
light, check fuse block harness connection for voltage. If there is no
battery voltage at connection, check for burnt fusible link in engine
compartment.
2) Check circuit breaker continuity if voltage exists. Using
ohmmeter, test circuit breaker for continuity. Replace circuit breaker
if no continuity exists.
3) If circuit breaker tests okay, check for battery voltage
at circuit breaker connection of fuse block with wiring harness
installed. If voltage exists at wiring harness but not at circuit
breaker connection, check fuse block for damage.
