wing. Refer to Owner Manual supplied with vehicle
for complete instructions for seat operation.
SWITCH TEST
For switch testing, remove switch from its mount-
ing location. Using an ohmmeter, refer to Figures 13
and 14 to determine if continuity is correct. If these
results are not obtained, replace the switch.
SWITCH REPLACEMENT REMOVAL
(1) Remove left cushion side shield.
(2) Disconnect wiring from switch.
(3) Depress bezel retainers and push switch from
bezel. (4) For installation, reverse above procedure.
POWER MEMORY SEAT, RECLINER AND
MIRRORS
AC & AY Body vehicles have, as an option, a spe-
cial 2 position memory power seat, recliner and
memory power outside rear view mirror system.
Each of the components can be moved to a desired
position by operating switches (Fig. 15). The seat and
recliner use potentiometers as position sensors and
the mirrors use rheostats to send their positioning
information back to the control module in the driv-
er's seat. After the desired seat and mirror position is
set. The seat, recliner, and mirror position can be
memorized at any time by pressing and release the
Set button. Followed by pressing the Position 1 or 2
button, for the specific position desired. DO NOT
press any other seat related switch for at least 5 sec-
onds. However, for the driver to recall a position, the
vehicle must not be moving and the seat belt must
NOT be buckled. Refer to the Owners Manual sup-
plied with the vehicle for complete instructions on
system operation.

Ä POWER SEATS 8R - 5
SYSTEM SOFT LIMITS
This portion of the system becomes activated when
the control module must shut off a specific seat, re-
cliner or mirror motor because it has reached the end
of its travel. When a mechanical stall condition is de-
tected, the control module will set a soft limit in its
memory and will not allow the motor to be driven
past that point. To override the soft limits, activate the seat or re-
cliner switch twice in the desired direction holding
the switch activated until the end of travel has been
reached. Reactivate and hold the switch once more
for three seconds. This will cause new soft limits to
be set in the control module.
SETTING SYSTEM SOFT LIMITS
If the control module or motor assemblies have
been replaced, the control module must learn its new
soft limits. To do this, perform the memory seat di-
agnostic self-test. After the tests are completed, the
control module will have learned and memorized its
new soft limits.
TEST PROCEDURES
Before any testing is attempted, the battery should
be carefully charged and all connections and termi-
nals cleaned and tightened to insure proper continu-
ity and grounds.
MEMORY SEAT AND MIRROR DIAGNOSTIC
SELF-TESTS
The system has a built-in set of three self-tests
which check all components in the system while giv-
ing a visual feedback. To enter the first self-test mode, switch test, press
memory position 1 and 2 buttons, hold for at least
five seconds and no longer than ten seconds. Follow
this immediately by pressing the Set button and hold
for at least five seconds but less than ten seconds.
Three seconds after the button is released, the seat,
recliner and mirrors will move to a mid-travel posi-
tion. Within ten seconds, press and release a seat
button to activate a seat or recliner motor. All
switches except the mirror switches may now be
tested one at a time. The memory switches, Position
1 and 2 and Set buttons, may also be tested. A good
switch contact actuation will NOD the seat. The seat
nod consists of seat front up and seat track forward
followed by seat front down and seat track rearward.
The nod also includes both outside power rear view
mirrors operating in the vertical plane. The system
will continue NODDING for good switches until 10
seconds pass without any switch actuation. Within 10 seconds of the last seat nod, press mem-
ory position 1 and 2 buttons for at least 5 seconds

WINDSHIELD
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE VEHICLE FOR AT
LEAST 24 HOURS AFTER WINDSHIELD INSTALLA-
TION. WINDSHIELD MAY NOT PERFORM PROPERLY
IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION IF URETHANE AD-
HESIVE IS NOT SUFFICIENTLY CURED. REFER TO
MANUFACTURER OF URETHANE BEING USED FOR
CURING TIME SPECIFICATIONS. WHEN INSTALLING GLASS, DO NOT USE URE-
THANE ADHESIVE AFTER DATE ON PRODUCT HAS
EXPIRED. SAFETY AND QUALITY OF REPAIR
WOULD BE QUESTIONABLE. DO NOT USE URETHANE ADHESIVE OR PRIMER IN
CLOSED WORK AREA, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RE-
SULT. PROTECT SKIN FROM COMING IN CONTACT WITH
URETHANE, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT. WEAR EYE AND HAND PROTECTION WHEN
WORKING WITH GLASS, PERSONAL INJURY CAN
RESULT.
CAUTION: Protect all painted or trimmed surfaces
from coming in contact with urethane or primers,
damage will result. Do not damage painted surfaces when removing
mouldings or cutting urethane around windshield.
It is difficult to salvage a windshield during the
removal operation. The windshield is part of the struc-
tural support for the roof. The urethane bonding used
to secure the windshield to the fence is difficult to cut
or clean from any surface. If the mouldings are set in
urethane, it would also be unlikely they could be
salvaged. Before removing the windshield, check the
availability of the windshield and mouldings from the
parts supplier.
WINDSHIELD REMOVAL
(1) Remove inside rear view mirror.
(2) Remove cowl cover.
(3) Remove windshield mouldings using a suitable
hook tool and trim stick (Fig. 1). (4) Cut urethane bonding from around windshield
using a suitable sharp cold knife. A pneumatic cutting
device can be used if available (Fig. 2). (5) Separate windshield from vehicle.
WINDSHIELD INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Open the left front door glass before
installing windshield to avoid pressurizing the pas-
senger compartment if a door or the trunk lid is
slammed before urethane bonding is cured. Water
leaks can result.
Fig. 8 Guide Assembly
Fig. 1 Windshield Mouldings
Fig. 2 Cut Urethane Around Windshield
Ä BODY 23 - 9
Allow the urethane at least 24 hours to cure before
returning the vehicle to use. The windshield fence should be cleaned of old ure-
thane bonding material. Support spacers should be
cleaned and properly installed on weld studs or re-
pair screws at bottom of windshield opening. (1) Place replacement windshield into windshield
opening and position glass in the center of the open-
ing against the support spacers. Mark the glass at
the support spacers with a grease pencil or pieces of
masking tape and ink pen to use as a reference for
installation. Remove replacement windshield from
windshield opening (Fig. 3). (2) Position the windshield inside up on a suitable
work surface with two padded, wood 10 cm by 10 cm
by 50 cm (4 in. by 4 in. by 20 in.) blocks, placed par-
allel 75 cm (2.5 ft.) apart (Fig. 4). (3) Clean inside of windshield with Mopar Glass
Cleaner and lint-free cloth. (4) Apply clear glass primer 25 mm (1 in.) wide
around perimeter of windshield and wipe with clean/
dry lint-free cloth. (5) Install mouldings on windshield (Fig. 4).
(6) Apply black-out primer 15 mm (.75 in.) wide on
top and sides of windshield and 25 mm (1 in.) on bot-
tom of windshield. Allow at least three minutes dry-
ing time. (7) Position windshield bonding compression spac-
ers on lower fence above the support spacers at the
edge of the windshield opening (Fig. 5). (8) Apply a 10 mm (0.4 in.) bead of urethane
around perimeter of windshield along the inside of
the mouldings. (9) With the aid of a helper, position the wind-
shield over the windshield opening. Align the refer-
ence marks at the bottom of the windshield to the
support spacers. (10) Slowly lower windshield glass to windshield
opening fence. Guide the top moulding into proper
position if necessary. Push windshield inward to
fence spacers at bottom and until top moulding is
flush to roof line (Fig. 6). (11) Clean excess urethane from exterior with Mo- par, Super Clean or equivalent.
(12) Install cowl cover and wipers.
(13) Install inside rear view mirror.
(14) After urethane has cured, water test wind-
shield to verify repair.
