DIAGNOSIS
COMPASS/DISPLAY SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST
This self-diagnostic test is used to determine that
the compass and all of its display segments are oper-
ating properly electrically. Initiate the self-diagnostic
test as follows:
(1) With the ignition switch in the OFF position,
simultaneously press and hold the COMP/TEMP but-
ton and the US/METRIC button.
(2) Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Continue to hold both buttons until the display
performs a walking segment test. In this test all of
the compass points are displayed, along with various
number combinations. These combinations verify that
all display segments are functional. If any segment
should fail to light during the test, the unit is faulty
and requires replacement. To repeat the test, momen-
tarily depress and release the COMP/TEMP button
one time.
(4) Momentarily depress and release the US/MET-
RIC button one time and all segments will light si-
multaneously for about 2 seconds. If any segment
should fail to light during the test, the unit is faulty
and requires replacement. To repeat the test, momen-
tarily depress and release the COMP/TEMP button
one time.
(5) Momentarily depress and release the US/MET-
RIC button one time or turn the ignition switch to
OFF to exit the self-diagnostic mode and return to
normal operation.
If the compass functions, but accuracy is sus-
pect, it may be necessary to perform a variation
adjustment. This procedure allows the unit to
accommodate variations in the earth's mag-
netic field strength based on geographic loca-
tion. See Compass Variation Adjustment, in this
group.
If the compass display has blanked out and
only CAL appears, demagnetizing may be nec-
essary to remove excessive residual magnetic
fields from the vehicle. See Compass Demagne-
tizing, in this group.
THERMOMETER DIAGNOSIS
The thermometer function is supported by a tem-
perature sensor, a wiring circuit and a portion of the
overhead console display. The sensor is mounted at
the center of the vehicle below the grille, behind the
front bumper (Fig. 1).
If any portion of the circuit fails, it will self-diag-
nose as an open or short circuit. The system will dis-
play SC (short circuit) when the sensor is exposed to
temperatures in excess of 55ÉC (131ÉF) or if the cir-
cuit is shorted. If the temperature is below -40ÉC
(-40ÉF) or an open circuit exists, the system will dis-
play OC (open circuit).To diagnose the temperature sensor, perform the
following procedures. If the sensor and circuit are
OK, then the electronic module is faulty and should
be replaced.
SENSOR TEST
(1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Unplug sensor
connector.
(2) Measure resistance of sensor. At -40ÉF the re-
sistance is 336K ohms. At 140ÉF the resistance is
2.488K ohms. Sensor resistance should read between
these two values. If OK, go to Sensor Circuit Test. If
not OK, replace the sensor.
SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST
(1) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Unplug sensor
connector.
(2) Short the pins on the body half of connector us-
ing a jumper wire.
(3) Remove the overhead console as described in
Service Procedures.
(4) Check continuity between cavities 10 and 11 of
overhead console harness connector (Fig. 2). There
should be continuity. If OK, go to next step. If not
OK, repair open circuit as required.

SERVICE PROCEDURES
COMPASS VARIATION ADJUSTMENT
Variance is the difference between magnetic north
and geographic north. In some areas, the difference
between magnetic and geographic north is great
enough to cause the compass to give false readings. If
this occurs, the variance must be set.
To set the variance:
(1) Using the map in Fig. 3, find your geographic
location and note the zone number.
(2) Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Depress both the US/METRIC and COMP/
TEMP buttons. Hold down until VAR is displayed.
This takes about 5 seconds.
(4) Release both buttons.
(5) Press the US/METRIC button to step through
the numbers until the zone number for your area ap-
pears in the display.
(6) Press the COMP/TEMP button to enter this
zone number into compass unit memory.
(7) Confirm correct directions are indicated.
COMPASS CALIBRATION
CAUTION: DO NOT place any external magnets
such as magnetic roof mount antennas, in the vicin-ity of the compass. DO NOT use magnetic tools
when servicing the overhead console.
The compass features a self-calibrating design,
which simplifies the calibration procedure. This fea-
ture automatically updates the compass calibration
while the vehicle is being driven. This takes into ac-
count small changes in residual magnetism the vehi-
cle may acquire during normal use. Do not attempt
to calibrate the compass near large metal objects
such as other vehicles, large buildings or bridges.
Whenever the compass is calibrated manually,
the variation number must also be reset. See
Variation Adjustment Procedure, in this group.
Calibrate the compass manually as follows:
(1) Start the engine.
(2) Depress both the US/METRIC and COMP/
TEMP buttons. Hold down until CAL is displayed.
This takes about 10 seconds and appears about 5 sec-
onds after VAR is displayed.
(3) Release both buttons.
(4) Drive vehicle on a level surface that is away
from large metal objects through 3 or more complete
circles in not less than 48 seconds. The CAL message
will disappear to indicate that the compass is now
calibrated.
If CAL message remains in display, either
there is excessive magnetism near the compass
or the unit is faulty. Repeat the demagnetizing
and calibration procedures at least one more
time.
If the wrong direction is still indicated, the
area selected may be too close to a strong mag-
netic field. Repeat the calibration procedure in
another location.
COMPASS DEMAGNETIZING
The tool used to degauss or demagnetize the for-
ward console attaching screw and roof panel is the
Miller Tool 6029. Equivalent units must be rated as
continuous duty for 110/115 volts and 60Hz. They
must also have a field strength of over 350 gauss at
1/4-inch beyond the tip of the probe.
The degaussing tool is used to demagnetize both
the roof panel and the console forward mounting
screw, as follows:
(1) Be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF posi-
tion before you begin the demagnetizing procedure.
(2) Plug in the degaussing tool, while keeping the
tool at least 2 feet away from the compass unit.
(3) Slowly approach the head of the forward
mounting screw with the plastic coated tip of the de-
gaussing tool. Contact the head of the screw for
about 2 seconds.Fig. 3 Variance Settings

GENERAL INFORMATION
Power locks are optional equipment on XJ (Chero-
kee) models. Power windows and the keyless entry
system are included on vehicles equipped with the
power lock option. All doors and the liftgate can be
locked and unlocked electrically by operating the
switch on either front door panel, or by operating the
lock and unlock buttons of the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The power lock and keyless entry sys-
tems operate with battery power supplied indepen-
dent of the ignition switch.
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the power lock system. Refer to Group
8W - Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit descrip-
tions and diagrams. Refer to the owner's manual for
more information on the features and use of these
systems.
POWER LOCK SWITCH
The power locks are controlled by a two-way switch
mounted on the trim panel of each front door. The
switch controls battery feed to the lock and unlock
relays. The door lock switches can not be repaired. If
faulty, the entire switch must be replaced.
POWER LOCK/UNLOCK RELAYS
The power lock and unlock relays are located in the
relay center. The relay center is located on the lower
instrument panel reinforcement behind the lower in-
strument panel and just right of the steering column.
The relays respond to inputs from the power lock
switches and the keyless entry module by sending
the correct battery and ground feeds to the lock mo-
tors. The lock and unlock relays can not be repaired.
If faulty, they must be replaced.
POWER LOCK MOTOR
The locks are actuated by a reversible motor
mounted within each door. The motor direction iscontrolled by the battery and ground feeds from the
power lock/unlock relays. The motor can not be re-
paired. If faulty, the entire motor must be replaced.
KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER
The keyless entry transmitter is equipped with two
buttons labeled Lock and Unlock. It is also designed
to serve as a key fob and is equipped with a key ring.
Each transmitter has a different vehicle access code,
which must be programmed into the memory of the
keyless entry module in the vehicle in order to oper-
ate the locks. The operating range of the infrared
transmitter signal is up to 4.75 meters (15 feet) from
the receiver.
The transmitter operates on two CR1616 3-volt (or
equivalent) batteries. Typical battery life is from one
to two years.
KEYLESS ENTRY MODULE
The keyless entry module is mounted in a housing
on the headliner near the windshield between the
sunvisors, or inside and towards the rear of the over-
head console (if equipped). This module contains the
keyless entry receiver and program logic for the key-
less entry system.
The keyless entry module has a memory function
to retain the vehicle access code of at least one, and
up to four transmitters. The module receives input
from the remote keyless entry transmitter. In re-
sponse to that input, it is programmed to control out-
puts to the lock and unlock relays. The module can
not be repaired and, if faulty, must be replaced.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Power outside rear view mirrors are an available
option on XJ (Cherokee) models. Following are gen-
eral descriptions of the major components in the
power mirror system. Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Di-
agrams for complete circuit descriptions and dia-
grams.
POWER MIRROR
The power mirrors are connected to battery feed at
all times. Each mirror head contains two electric mo-
tors, two drive mechanisms and the mirror glass.
One motor and drive controls mirror up-and-down
movement, and the other controls right-and-left
movement.
The mirror glass is the only serviced replacement
part for the power mirror assembly. If any other com-ponent of the mirror unit is faulty or damaged, the
entire assembly must be replaced.
POWER MIRROR SWITCH
Both the right and left mirror are controlled by a
multi-function switch located on the front of the cen-
ter console storage compartment, directly below the
armrest. The selector switch is moved right (right
mirror control), left (left mirror control), or center to
turn power mirrors off. Then one of four directional
control buttons is depressed to control movement of
the selected mirror up, down, right, or left. The
power mirror switch is serviced only as a complete
unit.
DIAGNOSIS
POWER MIRROR SYSTEM
(1) Check fuse 16 in Power Distribution Center
(PDC) and fuse 9 in fuseblock module. If OK, go to
next step. If not OK, replace fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at fuse 9 in fuseblock
module. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair cir-
cuit to fuse 16 in PDC.
(3) Remove power mirror switch from the center
console. See Power Mirror Switch Remove/Install.
(4) Disconnect wiring harness connector from
switch. Check for battery voltage at pink wire. If OK,
go to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to fuse 9 in
fuseblock module.
(5) Check for continuity between black wire in
switch harness connector and a good ground. There
should be continuity. If OK, go to next step. If not
OK, repair circuit to ground.
(6) Check switch continuity as shown in the Mirror
Switch Continuity charts. If OK, go to next step. If
not OK, replace switch.(7) See Power Mirror Switch illustration. Connect
a jumper wire from mirror switch connector cavity
for pin E to cavity for pin F. Now connect a second
jumper from connector cavity for pin G to each of the
following pin cavities: A, B, C, then D. In each case,
the selected mirror head should move. If OK, replace
switch. If not OK, go to next step.
(8) Remove door trim panel and unplug power mir-
ror connector inside door. Connect one jumper wire to
a good ground and a second jumper wire to a battery
feed. Connect other ends of jumpers to the mirror
side of connector in door (refer to Group 8W - Wiring
Diagrams for connector cavity identification). Mirror
head should move in each of the four directions. If
OK, repair wiring between mirror switch and door
connectors. If not OK, replace mirror.
