ROAD TEST
Refer to Operational Check (Road Test) section to
verify reports of speed control system malfunction.
INOPERATIVE SYSTEM
Road test vehicle to verify reports of speed control
system malfunction. An inspection should be made
for loose electrical and vacuum connections at the
servo.
Check for correct installation of the vacuum check
valve in the hose from servo to vacuum source. The
word VAC on the valve must point toward the vac-
uum source.
Corrosion should be removed from electrical termi-
nals and a light coating of Mopar MultiPurpose
Grease, or equivalent, applied.
Inspection also should be made to verify that both
ends of the speed control cable are securely attached.
CHECKING FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
(1) When trying to verify a speed control system
electronic malfunction use a DRB scan tool to find
the cause (refer to Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures
manual).
If DRB is not available, the Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) may be determined with the following
method:
(a) With key inserted in ignition switch, cycle
switch to ON position 3 times. On third cycle, leave
switch in ON position.
(b) After switch has been cycled 3 times, observe
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (CHECK ENGINE)
on instrument cluster. If a DTC is present, the code
will be displayed in a series of flashes representing
digits. Three flashes in rapid succession, a slight
pause, then 4 flashes in rapid succession would in-
dicate DTC 34.
(2) If a DTC 34 is observed, perform tests in the
sections Electrical Tests at Servo and Electrical Tests
at Powertrain Control Module.
If a DTC 15 is observed, perform test for a faulty
vehicle speed sensor.
(3) Correct any problems found when performing
these tests and recheck for DTC if changes were
made.
VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR TEST
For testing of the vehicle speed sensor and related
components, refer to Powertrain Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual.
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM ELECTRICAL
TESTS
Vehicle speed control systems may be tested using
two different methods. One involves use of a DRB
scan tool. If this test method is desired, refer to Pow-
ertrain Diagnostic Procedures manual.
The other test method uses a voltmeter. The volt-
meter method is described in the following tests.
If any information is needed concerning wiring, re-
fer to Section 8W - Wiring Diagrams.
CAUTION: When test probing for voltage or conti-
nuity at electrical connectors, care must be taken
not to damage connector, terminals, or seals. If
these components are damaged, intermittent or
complete system failure may occur.
ELECTRICAL TESTS AT SERVO
(1) Turn ignition switch to the ON position. With
speed control switch in the ON position, setup a volt-
meter to read battery voltage and connect negative
lead to a good chassis ground.
(2) Disconnect 4-way connector going to servo
(Figs. 2 and 3). Blue wire with red tracer of main
harness 4-way connector should read approximately
battery voltage. If not, check for loose connections,
brake switch adjustment or, repair main harness as
necessary.
(3) Connect a jumper wire between male and fe-
male terminals of blue wire with red tracer. The
other 3 male terminals from servo should show bat-
tery voltage. If not, replace servo.
(4) Using an ohmmeter, connect one lead to a good
body ground. Touch other lead to black wire terminal
in 4-way connector of main harness. Meter should
show continuity. If not, repair ground circuit as nec-
essary.
JVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM 8H - 5
ELECTRICAL TESTS AT POWERTRAIN CONTROL
MODULE
(1) Unplug 60-way connector from Powertrain Con-
trol Module, located on drivers side fender (Fig. 4).
(2) Connect negative lead of voltmeter to a good
body ground near module.
(3) For the following tests, ignition switch must be
in ON position. Refer to Fig. 5 for controller terminal
locations. Touch positive lead of voltmeter to termi-
nal in cavity number 33. With speed control switch
in OFF position, voltmeter should read 0 volts. With
speed control switch in ON position, voltmeter should
read battery voltage. If not, repair main harness as
necessary.(4) Touch positive lead of the voltmeter to terminal
in cavity number 53. As in step (3), voltmeter should
read 0 volts with switch in OFF position and battery
voltage with switch in ON position.
(5) Touch positive lead of voltmeter to terminal in
cavity number 48. With speed control switch in OFF
position, voltmeter should read 0 volts. With switch
in ON position, voltmeter should read battery volt-
age. Pressing SET button should cause voltmeter to
change from battery voltage to 0 volts for as long as
the switch is held. If not, perform the speed control
switch test. If the switch is not at fault, then check
main harness and repair as necessary.
(6) Touch positive lead of voltmeter to terminal in
cavity number 50. The voltmeter should read 0 volts
with speed control switch in either OFF or ON posi-
tion. With switch in either RESUME or SET posi-
tion, voltmeter should read battery voltage. If not,
perform the speed control switch test. If the switch is
not at fault, then check main harness and repair as
necessary.
(7) Touch positive lead of voltmeter to terminal in
cavity number 49. The voltmeter should read 0 volts
with switch in OFF position. With switch in ON po-
sition, voltmeter should read battery voltage. The
voltmeter will continue to read battery voltage when
either the SET or RESUME switch is pressed. If not,

FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS
GENERAL
Two-speed electric windshield wipers and electric
washers are standard equipment. An optional inter-
mittent wiper system provides a pause between wipe
cycles for use during conditions of very light precipi-
tation.
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY position. A cir-
cuit breaker located in the fuse block protects the cir-
cuitry of the wiper system.
WIPERS
The standard windshield wiper circuit contains
three components; wiper/washer switch, motor, and
front washer pump. Both standard and intermittent
circuits are the same, except that the intermittent
circuit requires a module and delay resistance in the
wiper switch. Both circuits receive battery feed from,
and are protected by a 5.5 amp circuit breaker.
In the standard wiper circuit, the switch connects
the motor directly to battery feed for low and high
speed operation. In the intermittent circuit, the
switch supplies battery feed to the intermittent wiper
module, which then supplies the motor. In the delay
position, the module is connected with the variable
resistor in the wiper switch. The value of the resis-tance is used by the module to charge a capacitor,
which triggers the amount of delay between wipes.
The wiper motor has an arrangement of brushes
providing the two wiper speeds. When the wipers are
turned off, the park switch maintains current to the
motor until the wipers reach the park position on the
windshield.
The park arm in the motor assembly is connected
to the park switch and is driven by the motor. When
the wiper switch is turned off, current flows through
the contact and the module to the motor until the
wipers reach the park position.
CAUTION: The wiper arms and blades must not be
moved manually from side to side or damage may
result.
WASHERS
With the washer switch ON, current flows through
the washer pump to ground. The front washer pump
runs as long as the driver holds the switch ON. On
standard wipers, the washer switch automatically
moves the wiper switch to LO when the washer is
turned on. On intermittent wipers, the wiper module
runs the wiper motor on LO. Turning the switch to
OFF stops the wipers.
If the washer knob is depressed while the wiper
switch is in the OFF position, the wiper control will
operate for approximately 3 wipes and automatically
turn OFF.

DIAGNOSING WINDSHIELD WIPERS
(1) Remove in-line circuit breaker near fuse block
and turn ignition switch to ACCESSORY or ON.
²Measure voltage at battery side of circuit breaker
cavity. Meter should read battery voltage. If not, re-
pair wiring from ignition switch.
²Measure resistance across circuit breaker termi-
nals. Meter should read zero ohms. If not, replace
failed circuit breaker.
(2) Unplug wiper motor side wiring harness con-
nector from wiper switch side harness connector
(non-intermittent), or from intermittent wiper mod-
ule at base of steering column. Turn ignition switch
to ACCESSORY or ON.
