GENERAL INFORMATION
On vehicles built with the 2.5L engine, the electri-
cal system has provisions for dealer installed air con-
ditioning. The provisions consist of two connectors
which include circuitry for:
²Circuit C1 - Ignition feed
²Circuit C21 - Blower motor switch
²Circuit C91 - A/C request signal
²Circuit C20 - A/C select signal
²Circuit C13 - Ground for coil side of A/C compres-
sor clutch relay
²Circuit G5 - Battery voltage for coil side of A/C
compressor clutch relay
A/C COMPRESSOR
When the ignition switch is in the RUN position it
connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) to circuit A22. Circuit A22 sup-
plies battery voltage to fuse 12 in the fuse block.
Fuse 12 powers circuit C1.
Circuit C1 supplies battery voltage to the A/C
blower switch. Circuit C21 connects the A/C blower
switch to the A/C low pressure switch.
When the operator selects A/C operation, the A/C
blower switch provides the A/C request signal to cav-
ity 27 of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on
circuit C91. At the same time, the blower switch sup-
plies voltage through the A/C thermostat to circuit
C21.
Circuit C21 supplies voltage to the A/C low pres-
sure switch. When the A/C low pressure switch
closes, circuit C20 provides battery voltage to the
contact side of the A/C compressor clutch relay and
provides the A/C select signal to the PCM. Circuit
C20 is double crimped at the contact side of the re-
lay. The C20 circuit branch from the relay supplies
the A/C select input to cavity 28 of the PCM.
After receiving the A/C request signal, the PCM en-
ergizes the A/C compressor clutch relay by providing
ground for the coil side of the relay on circuit C13.
Circuit C13 connects to cavity 34 of the PCM.
Circuit G5 from fuse 9 in the fuse block supplies
voltage to the coil side of the relay. In the START or
RUN positions the ignition switch connects circuit A1
from fuse 4 in the PDC with circuit A21. Circuit A21
connects to the fuse block bus bar that powers circuit
C5 through fuse 9.
When the PCM energizes the A/C compressor
clutch relay, the relay switches from its normally
grounded position to connect circuit C20 to circuit
C3. Circuit C3 supplies voltage to the case grounded
A/C compressor clutch.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Circuit G5 is double crimped at the coil side of the
A/C compressor clutch relay. The G5 branch from the
relay continues to the back-up lamp switch.
²Circuit Z1 provides ground for the A/C compressor
clutch relay when the relay is in its normally
grounded position.
A/C-HEATER BLOWER MOTOR
When the ignition switch is in the RUN position it
connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) to circuit A22. Circuit A22 sup-
plies battery voltage to fuse 12 in the fuse block.
Fuse 12 powers circuit C1.
Circuit C1 supplies battery voltage to the A/C
blower switch. In the LOW position, the A/C blower
switch supplies voltage to the low speed brush of the
blower motor. In the MEDIUM position, the switch
supplies voltage to the medium speed bush of the
blower motor. In the HIGH position, the switch sup-
plies voltage to the high speed brush of the blower
motor.
The blower motor has a field jumper. The ground
circuit for the blower motor connects to the cigar
lighter. Circuit Z1 provides ground for the blower mo-
tor and the cigar lighter.

the fuse block. Circuit F32 connects to the stop lamp
switch.
When the operator depresses the brake pedal, the
stop lamp switch closes, and connects circuit F32 to
circuit L50. Circuit L50 connects to the CHMSL
lamps and turn signal/hazard flasher. Circuit Z1 pro-
vides ground for the CHMSL lamps. The turn signal/
hazard flasher supplies current to the L62 and L63
circuits. Circuit L62 powers the right stop lamp. Cir-
cuit L63 powers the left stop lamp. The stop lamps
are case grounded.

In the START or RUN position, the ignition switch
connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) to circuit A21. Circuit A21 feeds
a bus bar in the fuse block that powers circuit G5
through fuse 9.
Circuit G5 splices to supply power to the back-up
lamp switch. On automatic transmission vehicles, the
back-up lamp switch is part of an assembly that in-
cludes the PARK/NEUTRAL position switch.
When the operator puts the transmission in Re-
verse, the back-up lamp switch connects circuit G5 to
circuit L1. Circuit L1 feeds the case grounded
back-up lamps.

power source.
If continuity or resistance tests did not pass, re-
place relay. If tests passed, refer to Group 8W, Wiring
Diagrams for additional circuit information. Also re-
fer to the appropriate Powertrain Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual for operation of the DRB scan tool.
STARTER MOTOR RELAY TEST
Refer to Group 8A, Battery/Starting/Charging/Sys-
tem Diagnostics, for starter motor relay testing.
FUEL INJECTOR TEST
To perform a complete test of the fuel injectors and
their circuitry, refer to DRB scan tool and appropri-
ate Powertrain Diagnostics Procedures manual. To
test the injector only, refer to the following:
Disconnect the injector wire connector from the in-
jector. Place an ohmmeter on the injector terminals.
Resistance reading should be approximately 14.5
ohms61.2 ohms at 20ÉC (68ÉF). Proceed to the fol-
lowing Injector Diagnosis chart.When performing
the following tests from the chart, do not leave
electrical current applied to the injector for
longer than five seconds. Damage to injector
coil or internal injector seals could result.
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST
Refer to the Fuel Delivery System section of this
group. See Fuel System Pressure Test.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS (OBD)
The powertrain control module (PCM) has been
programmed to monitor many different circuits of the
fuel injection system. If a problem is sensed in a
monitored circuit often enough to indicate an actual
problem, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored.
The DTC will be stored in the PCM memory for even-
tual display to the service technician. If the problem
is repaired or ceases to exist, the PCM cancels the
DTC after 51 engine starts.Certain criteria must be met for a diagnostic trou-
ble code (DTC) to be entered into PCM memory. The
criteria may be a specific range of engine rpm, engine
temperature and/or input voltage to the PCM.
It is possible that a DTC for a monitored circuit
may not be entered into memory even though a mal-
function has occurred. This may happen because one
of the DTC criteria for the circuit has not been met.
Example: assume that one of the criteria for the
MAP sensor circuit is that the engine must be oper-
ating between 750 and 2000 rpm to be monitored for
a DTC. If the MAP sensor output circuit shorts to
ground when the engine rpm is above 2400 rpm, a 0
volt input will be seen by the PCM. A DTC will not
be entered into memory because the condition does
not occur within the specified rpm range.
A DTC indicates that the powertrain control mod-
ule (PCM) has recognized an abnormal signal in a
circuit or the system. A DTC may indicate the result
of a failure, but never identify the failed component
directly.
There are several operating conditions that the
PCM does not monitor and set a DTC for. Refer to
the following Monitored Circuits and Non-Monitored
Circuits in this section.
MONITORED CIRCUITS
The powertrain control module (PCM) can detect
certain problems in the fuel injection system.
Open or Shorted Circuit- The PCM can deter-
mine if sensor output (which is the input to PCM) is
within proper range. It also determines if the circuit
is open or shorted.
Output Device Current Flow- The PCM senses
whether the output devices are hooked up.
If there is a problem with the circuit, the PCM
senses whether the circuit is open, shorted to ground
(-), or shorted to (+) voltage.
Oxygen Sensor- The PCM can determine if the
oxygen sensor is switching between rich and lean.
This is, once the system has entered Closed Loop. Re-
fer to Open Loop/Closed Loop Modes Of Operation in
the Component Description/System Operation section
for an explanation of Closed (or Open) Loop opera-
tion.
NON-MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM does not monitor the following circuits,
systems or conditions that could have malfunctions
that result in driveability problems. A Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) may not be displayed for these
conditions.
Fuel Pressure:Fuel pressure is controlled by the
vacuum assisted fuel pressure regulator. The PCM
cannot detect a clogged fuel pump inlet filter, clogged
in-line fuel filter, or a pinched fuel supply or return
