INTERMITTENT WIPER MOTOR SYSTEM TEST
Intermittent Wiper Motor Service Procedures for
diagnosis of problems which do not involve the delay
function, refer to the Two-Speed Motor Function
Tests. The two-speed functions of all wiper motors
are identical. If a problem occurs, only in the DELAY mode, the
following tests are to be performed.

TESTS
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAG, SEE GROUP 8M, RESTRAINT SYSTEMS FOR
STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN REMOVAL PROCE-
DURES.
The intermittent wipe function on AC, AG, AJ and
AY vehicles is controlled by the body controller, lo-
cated in the passenger compartment behind the right
side kick panel (Fig. 22). If the body controller is de-
termined to be the problem, refer to Group 8E, In-
strument Panels and Gauges, for replacement
procedures.
CONDITION: WIPERS DO NOT COME ON WHEN THE SWITCH IS IN DELAY POSITION
PROCEDURE
(1) Disconnect 25-way connector (blue) from the
body controller. (2) Place wiper control switch in maximum DE-
LAY position. (3) Connect positive lead of voltmeter to pin 9 of
connector (blue) and negative lead to the good
ground. (a) If voltmeter reads 0, check control switch and
wiring for an open circuit. (b) If voltmeter reads 10 to 15 volts, proceed to
step 4.
(4) Connect positive lead of voltmeter to pin 22 of
blue connector and negative lead to a good ground. (a) If voltmeter reads 0, check fuses and wiring

GENERAL INFORMATION
Each vehicle is equipped with lamps used for illumi-
nating and indicating purposes. A circuit must have a
good ground to be complete. Circuit ground occurs
when the lamp socket makes contact with the metal
body. On vehicles with plastic lamps, a wire between
the socket and the body makes the grounds. When changing lamp bulbs, check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean contacts with a
wire brush and coat the inside of the socket with
Mopar tMulti-purpose Grease or equivalent.
CAUTION: Do not touch the glass of halogen bulbs
with fingers or any possibly oily surface, reduced
bulb life will result.
BODY IDENTIFICATION
Throughout this Group, references are made to the
vehicle family or body code. To decode the vehicle
identification plates, refer to the Introduction Section
at the front of this manual.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
Begin electrical system failure diagnosis by testing
all related fuses and circuit breakers in the fuse block
and engine compartment. When a vehicle experiences problems with the head-
lamp system, verify the condition of the battery con-
nections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire con-
nectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and headlamp
switch. Refer to Wiring Diagrams manual for compo-
nent locations and circuit information.
SYMPTOM
Headlamps are dim when engine is idling of
with ignition turned OFF. Canada cars must
have lamps ON. ACTION
² Clean battery terminal clamps and posts. Refer to
Group 8B, Battery/Starter/Generator Service for
proper procedures.
² Test charging system output. Refer to Group 8A,
Battery/Starting/Charging Systems Diagnostics for
proper testing procedures.
² Test for high resistance in headlamp circuits.
² Defective headlamp bulb.
SYMPTOM
Bulbs burn out frequently.
ACTION

CONTROL SWITCH/TIMER RELAY MODULE . . 1
GENERAL INFORMATION .................. 1REPAIR GRID LINES, TERMINALS AND PIGTAILS.3
SERVICE PROCEDURES ................... 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
For proper operation of the Rear Window Defogger
system refer to the Owner's Manual. Vehicles equipped with an electrically heated rear
window defogger also have a 40/90 amp generator. The system consists of a rear glass with two verti-
cal bus bars and a series of electrically connected
grid lines fired on the inside surface. A control
switch and a timer relay combined into a single as-
sembly is used on all models (Fig.1).
Circuit protection is provided by a fusible link, lo-
cated in the charging circuit, for the heated grid cir-
cuit and by a fuse for the relay control circuit. When the switch is turned to the ON position, cur-
rent is directed to the rear defogger grid lines. The
heated grid lines heat the rear glass to clear the sur-
face of fog or frost.
CAUTION: Grid lines can be damaged or scraped
off with sharp instruments, care should be taken in
cleaning glass or removing foreign materials, de-
cals or stickers. Normal glass cleaning solvents or
hot water used with rags or toweling is recom-
mended.
CONTROL SWITCH/TIMER RELAY MODULE
The control switch and timer relay are integrated
into a single panel or console mounted assembly. Ac-
tuating the switch energizes the circuit which allows
current to flow through the grid lines. Upon initial
actuation for approximately ten minutes, or until ei-
ther the switch or ignition is turned off. An indicat-
ing lamp illuminates a lens inlaid in the control
switch.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
Electrically heated rear window defogger operation
can be checked in vehicle in the following manner: (1) Turn ignition ON.
(2) Turn rear window defogger control switch ON.
(3) Using a ammeter on the battery. Turn the De-
fogger control switch ON, a distinct increase in am-
perage draw should be noted. (4) The rear window defogger operation can be
checked by feeling the glass. A distinct difference in
temperature between the grid lines and adjacent
clear glass can be detected in three to four minutes
of operation. (5) Using a DC voltmeter (Fig. 2) contact terminal
B with the negative lead, and terminal A with the
positive lead. The voltmeter should read 10-14 volts.

Fig. 2 Rear Glass Grid Line TestÐTypical
Ä REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER 8N - 1
(6) Steps (3, 4 or 5) above will confirm system op-
eration. Indicator light illumination means that
there is power available at the output of the relay
only, and does not necessarily verify system opera-
tion. (7) If turning the switch ON produced no distinct
current draw on the ammeter the problem should be
isolated in the following manner: (a) Confirm the ignition switch is ON.
(b) Ensure that the heated rear glass feed wire is
connected to the terminal or pigtail and that the
ground wire is in fact grounded. (c) Ensure that the fusible link and control cir-
cuit fuse is operational and all electrical connec-
tions are secure.
(8) When the above steps have been completed and
the system is still inoperative, one or more of the fol-
lowing is defective: (a) Control switch/timer relay module.
(b) All rear window grid lines would have to be
broken or one of the feed wires are not connected
for the system to be inoperative.
(9) If turning the switch ON produces severe volt-
meter deflection, the circuit should be closely
checked for a shorting condition. (10) If the system operation has been verified but
indicator lamp does not light, replace the switch. (11) For detailed wiring information, refer to group
8W, Wiring Diagrams.
GRID TEST
The horizontal grid lines and vertical bus bar lines
printed and fired on inside surface of rear window
glass (Fig. 2) comprise an electrical parallel circuit.
The electrically conductive lines are composed of a
silver-ceramic material which when fired on glass be-
comes bonded to the glass and is highly resistant to
abrasion. It is possible, however, that a break may
occur in an individual grid line resulting in no cur-
rent flow through the line. To detect breaks in grid
lines the following procedure is required: (1) Turn ignition ON and turn control switch to
ON. The indicator light should come on. (2) Using a DC voltmeter with 0-15 volt range,
contact terminal B with negative lead of voltmeter.
With positive lead of voltmeter, contact terminal A
(Fig. 2). The voltmeter should read 10-14 volts. A
lower voltage reading indicates a poor ground con-
nection. (3) With negative lead of voltmeter, contact a good
body ground point. The voltage reading should not
change. (4) Connect negative lead of voltmeter to terminal
B and touch each grid line at Mid-Point with Posi-
tive lead. A reading of approximately 6 volts indi-
cates a line is good. A reading of 0 volts indicates a
break in line between Mid-Point C and terminal A.
A reading of 10-14 volts indicates a break between Mid-Point C and terminal B. Move toward break and
voltage will change as soon as break is crossed (Figs.
2 and 3).
CONTROL SWITCH/TIMER RELAY MODULE TEST
Control switch/timer relay module may be tested
in-vehicle or bench tested. In vehicle testing is ac-
complished in the following manner: (1) Remove the switch, relay assembly from the in-
strument panel or console, see Group 8E, Instrument
Panel and leave the switch connector plugged in. (2) Turn ignition ON.
(3) Using a DC voltmeter, with 0-15 range, check
voltage at terminals B, I and L. (Figs. 3 and 4). Ter-
minals B and I should confirm a voltage of 10 to 14
volts to ground when the ON switch is pressed. Ter-
minal L should confirm voltage to ground. When ter-
minals B and I show no voltage, trace circuit
upstream of switch/relay module for problem (wiring
cut, fusible link or circuit breaker inoperative, bulk-
head connector not operative, etc.) If terminal L in-
dicates voltage, place switch in Off position. If
voltage at L is still indicated or indicator lamp re-
mains on, the switch/relay module should be re-
placed. (4) If the relay checks out to this point, momen-
tarily operate switch to ON position. The indicator
lamp should come on and remain on for approxi-
mately 10 minutes. Terminal L should confirm volt-
age. If the indicator lamp fails to light or voltage at
terminal L is not confirmed the switch/relay module
should be replaced.

GENERAL INFORMATION
All doors can be locked or unlocked electrically by
operating the switch on a front door panel or arm
rest. The rear doors can be locked or unlocked by actu-
ation of the front door switch, or can be locked or un-
locked mechanically and independently with their
respective locking knobs. The front doors can be locked or unlocked mechan-
ically with the locking knob regardless of electrical
locking and unlocking actuation with the front door
knobs. The right and left front door on all car lines can be
locked or unlocked mechanically from the outside
with the key or electrically as described above. The
left front can also be unlocked by actuation of the in-
side remote door handle. The right front door on AC,
AG, AJ and AY can be unlocked by actuation of the
inside remote door handle. The deck lid lock consists of a latch with internal
solenoid and push button switch. The solenoid is en-
ergized only when the push button is depressed.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
The power door lock inhibit system prevents the
doors from being locked using the power door locks
when either of two conditions occur: (1) The key is in the ignition switch and any of the
doors are open. The ignition switch does not have to
be ON. (2) The key is in the ignition switch and the head-
lamp are on.
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
The system allows locking and unlocking of vehicle
door(s) and Trunk lid by remote control using a hand
held radio transmitter. The ignition switch must be
OFF before the trunk lid can be unlocked with the
transmitter. The receiver may receive signals from two trans-
mitters. Each transmitter has its own code, and the
code has been stored in memory. If the transmitter is
replaced or a second transmitter is add, the code on
both units have to be placed in memory.
CIRCUIT BREAKER TEST
Find correct circuit breaker on fuse block. Pull out
slightly but be sure that circuit breaker terminals
still contact terminals in fuse block. Connect ground
wire of voltmeter to a good ground. With probe of
voltmeter positive wire, check both terminals of cir-
cuit breaker for 12 volts. If only one terminal checks
at 12 volts, circuit breaker is defective and must be
replaced. If neither terminal shows 12 volts, check
for open or shorted circuit to circuit breaker.
WIRING VOLTAGE TEST
The following wiring test sequence determines
whether or not voltage is continuous through the
body harness to switch. (1) Remove left side switch from trim panel.
(2) Carefully separate multiple terminal block on
wiring harness from switch body. (3) Connect one lead of test light to a ground ter-
minal:
² Black Wire AA and AC Bodies
² Gray wire AG and AJ Bodies
² Touch other test light lead to Red Wire terminal.
² If test light comes on, the wiring circuit between
the battery and switch is functional.
² If test light does not come on, check 30 amp circuit
breaker or for a open circuit.
SWITCH TEST
Remove the switch from its mounting location. Us-
ing an ohmmeter, refer to (Fig. 1) to determine if
continuity is correct in the Lock and Unlock switch
positions. If these results are not obtained, replace
the switch.
