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.

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.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
DOOR LOCK SWITCH
Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove door trim panel.
Remove switch housing from inner door panel. Pry wiring retaining
clips upward while disconnecting wiring. Depress retainer clips
through holes in switch housing. Remove switch assembly. To install,
reverse removal procedure.
ACTUATOR MOTOR
1) Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove door trim panel.
Drill out actuator motor retaining rivets using a 1/4" drill bit.
2) Disconnect actuator rod from bellcrank. Disconnect wires
from actuator motor, and remove motor. To install, reverse removal
procedure, using new rivets.

INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW OF MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,
manufacturer-recommended, maintenance. We encourage participating
service and repair shops (including franchisees and dealers) to adopt
(1) a Pledge of Assurance to their Customers and (2) the Motorist
Assurance Program Standards of Service. All participating service
providers have agreed to subscribe to this Pledge and to adhere to the
promulgated Standards of Service demonstrating to their customers that
they are serious about customer satisfaction.
These Standards of Service require that an inspection of the
vehicle's (problem) system be made and the results communicated to the\
customer according to industry standards. Given that the industry did
not have such standards, the Motorist Assurance Program successfully
promulgated industry inspection communication standards in 1994-95 for
the following systems: Exhaust, Brakes, ABS, Steering and Suspension,
Engine Maintenance and Performance, HVAC, and Electrical Systems.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection were recently published.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection communication standards
are continually republished. In addition to these, standards for Drive
Train and Transmissions have recently been promulgated. Participating
shops utilize these Uniform Inspection & Communication Standards as
part of the inspection process and for communicating their findings to
their customers.
The Motorist Assurance Program continues to work
cooperatively and proactively with government agencies and consumer
groups toward solutions that both benefit the customer and are
mutually acceptable to both regulators and industry. We maintain the
belief that industry must retain control over how we conduct our
business, and we must be viewed as part of the solution and not part
of the problem. Meetings with state and other government officials
(and their representatives), concerned with auto repair and/or
consumer protection, are conducted. Feedback from these sessions is
brought back to the association, and the program adjusted as needed.
To assure auto repair customers recourse if they were not
satisfied with a repair transaction, the Motorist Assurance Program
offers mediation and arbitration through MAP/BBB-CARE and other non-
profit organizations. MAP conducted pilot programs in twelve states
before announcing the program nationally in October, 1998. During the
pilots, participating repair shops demonstrated their adherence to the
Pledge and Standards and agreed to follow the UICS in communicating
the results of their inspection to their customers. To put some
"teeth" in the program, an accreditation requirement for shops was
initiated. The requirements are stringent, and a self-policing method
