HOW TO USE THIS GROUP
The purpose of this group is to show the electrical
circuits in a clear, simple fashion and to make trou-
bleshooting easier. Components that work together
are shown together. All electrical components used in
a specific system are shown on one diagram. The feed
for a system is shown at the top of the page. All
wires, connectors, splices, and components are shown
in the flow of current to the bottom of the page. Wir-
ing which is not part of the circuit represented is ref-
erenced to another page/section, where the complete
circuit is shown. In addition, all switches, compo-
nents, and modules are shown in theat rest posi-
tion with the doors closed and the key removed
from the ignition.
If a component is part of several different circuits,
it is shown in the diagram for each. For example, the
headlamp switch is the main part of the exterior
lighting, but it also affects the interior lighting and
the chime warning system.
It is important to realize that no attempt is
made on the diagrams to represent components
and wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For
example, a short piece of wire is treated the
same as a long one. In addition, switches and
other components are shown as simply as pos-
sible, with regard to function only.
The wiring diagram show circuits for all wheel-
bases. If there is a difference in systems or compo-
nents between wheel-bases, an identifier is placed
next to the component.
SECTION IDENTIFICATION
Sections in Group 8W are organized by sub-sys-
tems. The sections contain circuit operation descrip-
tions, helpful information, and system diagrams. The
intention is to organize information by system, con-
sistently from year to year.
CONNECTOR LOCATIONS
Section 8W-90 contains Connector Location illus-
trations. The illustrations contain the connector
number and component identification. Connector Lo-
cation charts in Section 8W-90 reference the illustra-
tion number for components and connectors.
Section 8W-80 shows each connector and the cir-
cuits involved with that connector. The connectors
are identified using the number on the Diagram
pages.
SPLICE LOCATIONS
Splice Location charts in Section 8W-70 show the
entire splice, and provide references to other sections
the splice serves.
Section 8W-95 contains illustrations that show the
general location of the splices in each harness. The
illustrations show the splice by number, and provide
a written location.

CHARGING SYSTEM
CHARGING SYSTEM
The charging system is an integral part of the bat-
tery and starting systems. Because all these systems
work in conjunction, diagnose and test them together.
Circuit A11 connects to the generator output termi-
nal and splices to fuse 2 and fuse 6 in the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC). Circuit A0 connects the
battery to the PDC.
Circuit Z0 provides ground for the generator. Cir-
cuit Z0 attaches to the right side rear of the engine.
When the ignition switch is in either the START or
RUN position, it connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in
the PDC to circuit A21. Circuit A21 powers fuse 5 in
the fuse block. Circuit G50 from fuse 5 splices to
power the coil side of the Automatic Shut Down
(ASD) relay. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
provides ground for the relay on circuit K51. Circuit
K51 connects to cavity 51 of the PCM.
When the PCM grounds the ASD relay, contacts in-
side the relay close and connect circuit A14 from fuse
1 in the PDC to circuit A142. Circuit A142 splices to
the generator field terminal.
The PCM has an internal voltage regulator that
controls generator output. The PCM controls the gen-
erator field on circuit K20. Circuit K20 connects to
PCM cavity 20.When the engine operates and there is current in
the generator field, the generator produces a B+ volt-
age. The generator supplies B+ voltage to the battery
through the A11 and A0 circuits.

lay.

gauge, it creates a magnetic field. One of the coils in
the gauge receives fixed current. The other coil is
connected to the level sensor. The magnetic field con-
trols the position of the fuel gauge pointer.
The fuel level sensor contains a variable resistor.

through second coil in the fuel gauge. A change in
current flow alters the magnetic field in the fuel
gauge, which changes the pointer position.
