IGNITION
OFF
DRAW
(IOD)
Ignition off draw refers to power being drained
from the battery with the ignition turned off. A nor
mal vehicle electrical system will draw from 5 to 20
milliamps. A vehicle that has not been operated for
an extended period of time (approximately 20 days)
may discharge the battery to an inadequate level.
Battery drain should not exceed approximately 20
MA (20 milliamps = 0.020 amps). The 20 MA are needed to supply PCM memory,
digital clock memory, and ETR (electronically tuned
radio) memory. Excessive battery drain is caused by items left
turned on, internally shorted generator, or intermit
tent short in wiring.
If the IOD is excessive (over 20 milliamperes), the
defect must be found and corrected before replacing a
battery. In most cases the battery can be charged and returned to service.
TEST PROCEDURE Testing for higher amperage IOD must be per
formed first to prevent damage to most milliamp
meters.
Verify that all electrical accessories are OFF. Turn
off all lights, remove ignition key, and close all

doors.
If the vehicle is equipped with electronic acces
sories (illuminated entry, high line radio), allow the
systems to automatically shut off (time out), up to 3
minutes.
(1) After determining that the underhood lamp is
operating properly then disconnect bulb. (2) Disconnect negative cable from battery.
(3) Connect a typical 12 volt test light (low watt
age bulb) between the negative cable clamp and the
battery negative terminal. The test light may light brightly for up to 3 min
utes or may not light at all (depending on the elec
trical equipment). The term brightly being used
throughout the following tests, implies the bright ness of the test light will be the same as if it were
connected across the battery.
The test light must be securely clamped to the neg
ative cable and battery terminal. If the test light be
comes disconnected during any of the IOD test, the electronic timer function will be activated and all
tests must be repeated.
(4) After 3 minutes, the test light should turn OFF
or be DIMLY lit (depending on the electrical equip

ment).
If the test light remains brightly lit do not
disconnect it. Remove each fuse or circuit breaker (refer to Group 8 - Wiring Diagrams) until test light
is either OFF or DIMLY lit. This will eliminate the
higher amperage draw.
If test light is still bright after disconnecting each
fuse and circuit breaker, disconnect the wiring har ness from the generator. Refer to Generator Testing
in this group. Do not disconnect the test light. After higher amperage IOD has been corrected, low
amperage IOD may be checked.
It is now safe to install milliamp meter to check for
low amperage IOD.
(5) With test light still connected, securely clamp
an ammeter between battery negative terminal and
negative battery cable.
If the test light or the milliamp meter circuit is
broken the various timer circuits will start. Do
not open any doors or turn on any electrical ac cessories with the test light disconnected or the
meter may be damaged.
(6) Disconnect test light. The current draw should
not exceed 0.020 amp. If it exceeds 20 milliamps iso
late each circuit by removing circuit breakers and

fuses.
The meter reading drops once the high current
problem is found. Repair this section of the circuit,
whether it is a wiring short or component failure.

BATTERY
OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGE TEST
A battery voltage (no load) test will indicate the
state of charge of a battery that will pass the Battery
Load Test described in this section. Before proceed
ing with this test or the Battery Load Test the
battery must be completely charged as de scribed in Battery Charging in this section. If a battery has a no load voltage reading of 12.4
volts or greater but will not endure a load test, it is
defective and should be replaced. Refer to Group 8B,
Battery/Starter Service for instructions. To test bat
tery no load voltage, perform the following operation: (1) Before measuring open circuit voltage, the sur
face charge must be removed from plates. Turn head lights on for 15 seconds then allow up to 5 minutes
for voltage to stabilize. (2) Remove both battery cables, negative first.
(3) Using a voltmeter connected to the battery

posts,
see instructions provided with voltmeter, mea sure open circuit voltage (Fig. 6). This voltage reading will indicate state of charge,
but will not reveal cranking capacity. Refer to Bat
tery Open Circuit Voltage chart.

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.

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.

TROUBLESHOOTING
WIRING
PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are
six steps which can aid in the procedure. The steps
are listed and explained below. (1) Verify the problem.
(2) Verify any related symptoms. Perform opera
tional checks on components in the same circuit as the problem area. Refer to the wiring diagram fuse
application chart for circuit information. (3) Analyze the symptoms. Use the wiring dia
grams to determine what the circuit is doing, where
the problem most likely is occurring and where the diagnosis will continue. (4) Isolate the problem area. (5) Repair the problem.
(6) Verify proper operation. For this step check for
proper operation of all items on the circuit repaired. Refer to the wiring diagram fuse application chart.

FUSIBLE
LINKS
Vehicle wiring harnesses are equipped with fusible

links.
For protection against harness damage in the
event of a short. Fusible links are color coded as to
wire gauge size. Refer to the fusible link chart for color and gauge identification (Fig. 6).

damage
to the electrical
system
could
occur.
Also
make
sure

When a fusible link blows it is important to find
out what the problem is. They are placed in the elec
trical system for protection against shorts to ground
that can be caused by a component or various wiring
failures. Do not just replace the fusible link to correct the problem.
When diagnosing a faulty fusible link it is impor
tant to check the wire carefully. In some instances
the link may be blown and it will not show through the insulation, the wire should be checked over its
entire length for internal breaks.
(1) Disconnect battery negative cable.
(2) Cut out the blown portion of the fusible link.
(3) Strip 1 inch of insulation from each end of the
existing fusible link.
(4) Place a piece of heat shrink tubing over one
side of the fusible link. Make sure the tubing will be
long enough to cover and seal the entire repair area.
(5) Cut a replacement piece of fusible link approx
imately two inches longer than the piece removed. (6) Remove one inch of insulation from each end of
the replacement fusible link.
