GENERAL INFORMATION
In this model year Chrysler began producing AA-
Body vehicles designed to operate on a mixture of
gasoline and methanol. These automobiles are re-
ferred to as Flexible Fuel vehicles. Fuel system com-
ponents designed for use in flexible fuel vehicles are
referred to as Methanol Compatible. Flexible fuel vehicles can operate on a mixture of
up to 85 percent methanol, 15 percent unleaded gas-
oline. These vehicles also operate on mixtures con-
taining a lower percentage of methanol or just pure
unleaded gasoline.
IDENTIFYING FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
Flexible Fuel vehicles have unique methanol com-
patible fuel system components. Chrysler identifies
methanol compatible components that could be phys-
ically interchanged with gasoline only parts by color-
ing them green or applying a green label or tag to
them. Even though they may appear physically iden- tical, components for gasoline only AA-body vehicles
must not be used on flexible fuel vehicles.
FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
The fuel system of flexible fuel AA-body vehicles
have the following unique methanol compatible com-
ponents.
² Duty Cycle EVAP Purge Solenoid
² Fuel pump module
² Fuel level sensor
² Fuel gauge (gauge cluster).
² Fuel tank
² Fuel pressure regulator (including O-rings)
² Fuel rail
² Fuel injectors (including O-rings)
² Fuel tubes
² Fuel filter
² EVAP canister
² Fuel filler cap

tubes
SYSTEM OPERATION
The flexible fuel vehicle's 2.5L engine use a se-
quential multi-port electronic fuel injection system
(Fig. 1). The powertrain control module (PCM) oper-
ates the electronic fuel injection system. The PCM
provides precise air/fuel ratios and ignition timing
for all driving conditions.
The PCM regulates the air-fuel ratio, ignition coil
dwell and idle speed. The PCM also operates the
high speed and low speed cooling fans, charging sys-
tem, speed control system and various emission con-
trol devices. Various sensors and switches provide inputs to the
PCM. The PCM converts all inputs into signals and
regulates various systems based on the inputs. The
PCM adjusts the systems it controls to meet chang-
ing operating conditions. Fuel is injected into the intake port above the in-
take valve in precise metered amounts through elec-
trically operated injectors. The PCM operates the
injectors in a specific sequence. The PCM adjusts the
air/fuel ratio based on the percentage of methanol in the fuel. The PCM constantly adjusts injector pulse
width to obtain the ideal air fuel ratio for the current
percentage of methanol in the fuel. Injector pulse
width refers to the amount of time an injector oper-
ates. The PCM adjusts injector pulse width by opening
and closing the ground path to the injectors. Engine
RPM (speed), manifold absolute pressure (air density)
and the percentage of methanol in the fuel are the
primary inputs that determine injector pulse width.
SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
The powertrain control module (PCM) can test
many of its own input and output circuits. If the
PCM senses a fault in a major system, the PCM
stores a diagnostic trouble code in memory. Technicians can display stored diagnostic trouble
codes by two different methods. The first is to cycle
the ignition switch On - Off - On - Off - On within 5
seconds. Then count the number of times the mal-
function indicator lamp (check engine lamp) on the
instrument panel flashes on and off. The number of
flashes represents the trouble code. There is a slight
pause between the flashes representing the first and
second digits of the code. Longer pauses separate in-
dividual trouble codes.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors
many different circuits in the fuel injection system. If
the PCM senses a problem with a monitored circuit
often enough to indicate an actual problem, it stores a
diagnostic trouble code in the PCM's memory. If the
problem is repaired or ceases to exist, the PCM cancels
the diagnostic trouble code after 51 vehicle key on/off
cycles. Certain criteria must be met before the PCM stores a
diagnostic trouble code in memory. The criteria may be
a specific range of engine RPM, engine temperature,
and/or input voltage to the PCM. The PCM might not store a diagnostic trouble code
for a monitored circuit even though a malfunction has
occurred. This may happen because one of the diagnos-
tic trouble code criteria for the circuit has not been met.
For example , assume the diagnostic trouble code
criteria for a certain sensor requires the PCM to
monitor the circuit only when the engine operates
between 750 and 2000 RPM. Suppose the sensor's
output circuit shorts to ground when engine operates
above 2400 RPM (resulting in 0 volt input to the PCM).
Because the condition happens at an engine speed
above the maximum threshold (2000 rpm), the PCM
will not store a diagnostic trouble code. There are several operating conditions for which the
PCM monitors and sets diagnostic trouble codes. Refer
to Monitored Circuits and Non-Monitored Circuits in
this section. Technicians can display stored diagnostic trouble
codes by two different methods. The first is to cycle the
ignition switch On - Off - On - Off - On within 5
seconds. Then count the number of times the malfunc-
tion indicator lamp (check engine lamp) on the instru-
ment panel flashes on and off. The number of flashes
represents the trouble code. There is a slight pause
between the flashes representing the first and second
digits of the code. Longer pauses separate individual
trouble codes. The second method of reading diagnostic trouble
codes uses the DRBII scan tool. The DRBII scan tool
connects to the data link (diagnostic) connector in the vehicle (Fig. 1). For diagnostic trouble code informa-
tion, refer to charts in this section.
MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM can detect certain fault conditions in the
fuel injection system. Open or Shorted Circuit - The PCM can determine
if the sensor output (input to the PCM) is within proper
range. Also, the PCM can determine open or shorted
circuits. Output Device Current Flow - The PCM senses
whether output devices are hooked up. If a problem
exists within the circuit, the PCM senses whether the
circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted high. Heated Oxygen Sensor - Once the system has
entered closed loop, the PCM determines if the oxygen
sensor is switching between rich and lean. Refer to
Modes of Operation in the General Information section
of this group for an explanation of closed loop opera-
tion.
NON-MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM does not monitor the following circuits,
systems and conditions that could have malfunctions
causing driveability problems. The PCM might not
store diagnostic trouble codes for these conditions.
However, problems with these systems may cause
Fig. 1 Data Link (Diagnostic) Connector
14 - 70 FUEL SYSTEMS Ä

the PCM to store diagnostic trouble codes for other
systems. For example, a fuel pressure problem will not
register a fault directly, but could cause a rich or lean
condition. This could cause the PCM to store an oxygen
sensor diagnostic trouble code. Fuel Pressure - The vacuum assisted fuel pressure
regulator controls fuel system pressure. The PCM
cannot detect a clogged fuel pump inlet filter, clogged
in-line fuel filter, stuck open regulator, or a pinched
fuel supply or return line. However, these could result
in a rich or lean condition causing the PCM to store an
oxygen sensor diagnostic trouble code. Secondary Ignition Circuit - The PCM cannot
detect an inoperative ignition coil, fouled or worn spark
plugs, ignition cross firing, or open spark plug cables. Engine Timing - The PCM cannot detect an incor-
rectly indexed timing belt, camshaft sprocket and
crankshaft sprocket. However, these could result in a
rich or lean condition causing the PCM to store an
oxygen sensor diagnostic trouble code. Cylinder Compression - The PCM cannot detect
uneven, low, or high engine cylinder compression. Exhaust System - The PCM cannot detect a
plugged, restricted or leaking exhaust system. Fuel Injector Mechanical Malfunctions - The
PCM cannot determine if a fuel injector is clogged, the
needle is sticking or if the wrong injector is installed.
However, these could result in a rich or lean condition
causing the PCM to store an oxygen sensor diagnostic
trouble code. Excessive Oil Consumption - Although the PCM
monitors exhaust stream oxygen content when the
system is in closed loop, it cannot determine excessive
oil consumption. Throttle Body Air Flow - The PCM cannot detect a
clogged or restricted air cleaner inlet or filter element. Evaporative System - The PCM cannot detect a
disconnected (open vacuum line) restricted, plugged or
loaded evaporative purge canister. Vacuum Assist - The PCM cannot detect leaks or
restrictions in the vacuum circuits of vacuum assisted
engine control system devices. However, these could
cause the PCM to store a MAP sensor diagnostic
trouble code and cause a high idle condition. PCM System Ground - The PCM cannot determine
a poor system ground. However, one or more diagnostic
trouble codes may be generated as a result of this
condition. PCM Connector Engagement - The PCM may not
be able to determine spread or damaged connector
pins. However, it might store diagnostic trouble codes
as a result of spread connector pins.HIGH AND LOW LIMITS
The PCM compares input signal voltages from each
input device with established high and low limits for the
device. If the input voltage is not within limits and other
criteria are met, the PCM stores a diagnostic trouble code
in memory. Other diagnostic trouble code criteria might
include engine RPM limits or input voltages from other
sensors or switches that must be present before verifying
a diagnostic trouble code condition.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
A diagnostic trouble code indicates the powertrain
control module (PCM) has recognized an abnormal
condition in the system. Abnormal conditions are usu-
ally shorted or open circuits.
The technician can display diagnostic trouble codes in
two ways. The first way is to cycle the ignition switch and
count the number of times the malfunction indicator lamp
(check engine lamp on the instrument panel) flashes on
and off. The DRBII scan tool provides the second method
of displaying diagnostic trouble codes. Diagnostic trouble
codes indicate the results of a circuit failure, but do not
directly identify the failed component.
For a list of Diagnostic Trouble Codes, refer to
the charts at the end of this section.
OBTAINING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
USING DRBII SCAN TOOL
WARNING: APPLY PARKING BRAKE AND/OR BLOCK
WHEELS BEFORE PERFORMING ANY TEST ON AN

GENERAL INFORMATION
The turbocharged multi-port electronic fuel injec-
tion system combines an electronic fuel and spark
advance control system with a turbocharged intake
system (Fig. 1). The fuel injection system is con-
trolled by the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio,
emission control devices, cooling fan, charging sys-
tem, speed control, turbocharger wastegate and idle
speed. The PCM adapts its requirement to meet
changing operating conditions. Various sensors provide the inputs necessary for
the PCM to correctly regulate fuel flow at the fuel
injector. These include the manifold absolute pres-
sure, throttle position, oxygen sensor, coolant tem-
perature, detonation, and vehicle speed sensors. In
addition to the sensors, the air conditioning clutch
switch and various relays provide important informa-
tion and system control. The outputs include the auto
shutdown relay and fuel pump relay. All inputs to the PCM are converted into signals.
Based on these inputs the PCM adjusts air-fuel ratio,
ignition timing, turbocharger wastegate and other
