gine is running. The PCM uses this input, along with
inputs from other sensors, to adjust air-fuel mixture.
For more information, refer to Group 14, Fuel Sys­
tem.
The MAP sensor is mounted to the throttle body
(Fig. 11). It is connected to the throttle body with an
L-shaped rubber fitting and to the PCM electrically. For component testing, refer to the Diagnostics/Ser­
vice Procedures section of this group. For removal and installation of this component, re­
fer to the Component Removal/Installation section of
this group.

POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
(PCM) The powertrain control module (PCM) is located in
the engine compartment behind the battery (Fig. 12).
The PCM was formerly referred to as the SBEC or engine controller. The ignition system is controlled by the PCM. Base ignition timing by rotation of distributor
is not adjustable.

circuit to operate the ignition coil. This is done to ad­
just ignition timing, both initial (base) and advance, for changing engine operating conditions.
The amount of electronic spark advance provided
by the PCM is determined by five input factors: Cool­ ant temperature, engine rpm, intake manifold tem­
perature, manifold absolute pressure and throttle
position.
For removal and installation of this component, re­
fer to the Component Removal/Installation section of
this group.
For diagnostics, refer to the appropriate Powertrain

SENSOR
The sensor is mounted on the throttle body (Fig.

VOLTAGE TEST

The following wiring test sequence determines
whether
or not
voltage
is
continuous through
the

body harness
to
switch. After removing switch from trim panel
for
testing
purposes, carefully separate multiple terminal block
on wiring harness from switch body. Connect
one

lead
of
test light
to
black wire terminal
and
touch other test light lead
to red
wire terminal.
If
the test
light comes
on, the
wiring circuit between
the
bat­
tery
and
switch
is
functional.
If
light does
not
come
on, check
20 amp
fuse
or for a
broken wire.

ELECTRIC MOTOR TEST
Make certain battery
is in
normal condition before
circuits
are
tested. To determine which motor
is
defective, check each
individual door switch
for
lock
and
unlock
or
discon­
nect
the
motors,
one at a
time, then operate
the
door lock switch.
In the
event that none
of the
motors
work,
the
problem may
be
caused
by a
shorted motor. Disconnecting
the
defective motor will allow
the

other
to
work. To test
an
individual door lock motor, disconnect
the wire connector
at the
motor. Apply
12
volts across
the
motor terminals
to
check
its
operation
in

one direction. Reverse
the
polarity
to
check
the
oper­ ation
in the
other direction.
If the
motor works,
check
the
wire harness
for
broken wires
or bad
con­
nections.
If
the motor does
not
work, replace
it.
Should
the
motor malfunction
be the
result
of
bro­
ken wiring
or an
internal open circuit,
it
should have no effect
on the
operation
of
the other motor.

GENERAL
INFORMATION
Power window motors are of the permanent mag­
net type. A positive and negative battery connection
to either of the two motor terminals will cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing current
through these same two connections will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction. Both motors are grounded through the master
switch by a black wire attached to a ground stud.
The stud is located on the back of the instrument
panel, on the right side of the steering column. It is necessary that the window be free to slide up

and down in the glass channels or tubes and tracks.
If the window is not free to move up and down, the
window motor will not be able to move the glass.
To determine if the glass is free, disconnect the
electric window regulator lift arm sliders from the
glass lift channels. Slide the window up and down by
hand.
A less positive method is to shake the glass in the
door, (with glass positioned between the up and down
stop positions). If the glass will move slightly from
side to side, front to rear, and up and down, the win­
dow is probably not bound tight in the tracks.

TEST
PROCEDURES

SWITCH
VOLTAGE TEST
The following wiring test sequence determines
whether or not voltage is continuous through the
body harness to switch. (1) Remove power window/lock switch by inserting
a standard blade screwdriver into notch on forward
end of switch housing. Push screwdriver to depress
locking tab. Pull bezel out and forward to remove
from door panel. (2) Carefully separate multiple terminal block on
wiring harness from switch body. (3) Connect one lead of test light to black (BK)
wire terminal. Touch other test light lead to tan (TN)
wire terminal. If test light comes on, the wiring cir­ cuit between the battery and switch is functional. If
light does not come on, check 30 amp circuit breaker,
or for a broken wire or poor ground.

CIRCUIT
BREAKER
TEST
Locate the circuit breaker in fuse cavity number 12
on fuse block. Pull out slightly but be sure that cir­
cuit 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 circuit breaker for battery voltage.
If only one terminal checks at battery voltage, circuit
breaker is defective and must be replaced. If neither
terminal shows battery voltage, check for open or shorted circuit to circuit breaker.

SWITCH TEST
For switch testing, remove the switch from its
mounting location. Using an ohmmeter, refer to Figs. 1 and 2 to determine if continuity is correct in the
UP and DOWN switch positions. If continuity is cor­
rect perform window lift motor test.

WINDOW
MOTOR TEST
(1) Connect positive lead (from a test battery) to
either of the two motor terminals. (2) Connect negative lead (from test battery) to re­
maining motor terminal. (3) The motor should now rotate in one direction to
either move window up or down. (a) If window happens to already be in full UP
position and motor is connected to rotate in UP di­ rection, no movement will be observed.

GENERAL
INFORMATION
The buzzer module is located to the right of the
steering column (Fig. 1). The buzzer sounds an audi­
ble warning tone in any of the following conditions: • Vehicle lights are ON when the driver's door is
opened.
• The key is in the ignition and the driver's door is
open. • The ignition is switched ON and the driver's seat
belt is not buckled. Buzzer will quit after 4 to 8 sec­
onds.
In addition to the buzzer, a seat belt light in­
dicator turns on as a reminder to fasten seat belt.

BUZZER

MODULE

INTERMITTENT

WIPE MODULE

Fig, 1 Buzzer Module Location

OPERATION
Battery voltage for module operation is supplied to
two pins. Battery voltage is present at pin 7 at all
times (Figs. 2 and 3). Pin 1 receives voltage when
the ignition switch is turned ON.
SEA T BELT WARNING To sound the seat belt warning, the module needs:
• battery voltage at the ignition switch input (Pin 1)
• a ground at the seat belt switch.
• a ground at Pin 3 to activate the timer. This occurs when the seat belt switch is closed be­
cause the driver's seat belt is not buckled. The "fas­
ten belt" light will also turn on along with the
warning sound. KEY IN IGNITION
To sound the "key in ignition" alarm, the module

needs:

• the ignition key warning switch must be closed
• the driver's door jamb switch must be closed. These conditions ground pin 6 of the module. These
switches are closed when the driver's door is open
and the key is in the ignition.
LIGHTS ON To sound the "lights on" warning, the module

needs:

• the headlamp switch must be closed
*> the driver's door jamb switch must be closed. These conditions ground pin 6 of the module. These
switches are closed when the driver's door is open
and the headlamp switch is on.

DIAGNOSIS
If the buzzer unit does not operate as described,
check the two fuses for pins 1 and 7 (Figs. 2, 3 and 4) and replace as required. If the fuses are not defec­

tive,
perform the following tests to determine if the
problem is in the module or in the wiring. Using a flat blade screwdriver, release the locking plastic clip
while carefully pulling out the module. Plug in a known good module and check its operation. If the
problem is not corrected by replacing the module, re­ move the module and continue as follows:
VOLTAGE TESTS Ignition in run, measure between the following
pins and vehicle ground.
• Measure voltage at buzzer module connector pin 1.
Meter should read battery voltage. If not, repair open
to ignition switch.
Turn ignition off and remove key from igni­

tion.

• Measure voltage at buzzer module connector pin 7.
Meter should read battery voltage. If not, repair open
to fuse. Battery voltage is present at Pin 7 at all
times regardless of key position.
