AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATER
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.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Check fuse 4 in the PDC.
²Check fuse 12 in the fuse block.

minutes). The use of a locating dowel is recom-
mended during assembly to prevent smearing the
material off location.
Mopar Gasket Maker should be applied sparingly
to one gasket surface. The sealant diameter should
be 1.00 mm (0.04 inch) or less. Be certain the mate-
rial surrounds each mounting hole. Excess material
can easily be wiped off. Components should be
torqued in place within 15 minutes. The use of a lo-
cating dowel is recommended during assembly to pre-
vent smearing the material off location.
ENGINE PERFORMANCE
To provide best vehicle performance and lowest ve-
hicle emissions, it is most important that the tune-up
be done accurately. Use the specifications listed on
the Vehicle Emission Control Information label found
on the engine compartment hood.
(1) Test battery specific gravity. Add water, if nec-
essary. Clean and tighten battery connections.
(2) Test cranking amperage draw (refer to Group
8B, Battery/Starter Service for the proper proce-
dures).
(3) Tighten the intake manifold bolts (refer to
Group 11, Exhaust System and Intake Manifold for
the proper specifications).
(4) Perform cylinder compression test:
(a) Check engine oil level and add oil, if neces-
sary.
(b) Drive the vehicle until engine reaches normal
operating temperature.
(c) Select a route free from traffic and other
forms of congestion, observe all traffic laws and
briskly accelerate through the gears several times.
The higher engine speed may help clean out valve
seat deposits which can prevent accurate compres-
sion readings.
CAUTION: DO NOT overspeed the engine.
(d) Remove all spark plugs from engine. As spark
plugs are being removed, check electrodes for ab-
normal firing indicatorsÐfouled, hot, oily, etc.
Record cylinder number of spark plug for future
reference.
(e) Disconnect coil wire from distributor and se-
cure to good ground to prevent a spark from start-
ing a fire.
(f) Be sure throttle blades are fully open during
the compression check.
(g) Insert compression gage adaptor into the
No.1 spark plug hole. Crank engine until maximum
pressure is reached on gauge. Record this pressure
as No.1 cylinder pressure.
(h) Repeat Step 4g for all remaining cylinders.
(i) Compression should not be less than 689 kPa
(100 psi) and not vary more than 172 kPa (25 psi)
from cylinder to cylinder.(j) If cylinder(s) have abnormally low compres-
sion pressures, repeat steps 4a through 4h.
(k) If the same cylinder(s) repeat an abnormally
low reading, it could indicate the existence of a
problem in the cylinder.
The recommended compression pressures are
to be used only as a guide to diagnosing engine
problems. An engine should NOT be disassem-
bled to determine the cause of low compression
unless some malfunction is present.
(5) Clean or replace spark plugs as necessary. Ad-
just gap (refer to Group 8D, Ignition System for gap
adjustment and torque).
(6) Test resistance of spark plug cables (refer to
Group 8D, Ignition System).
(7) Inspect the primary wire. Test coil output volt-
age, primary and secondary resistance. Replace parts
as necessary (refer to Group 8D, Ignition System and
make necessary adjustment).
(8) Perform a combustion analysis.
(9) Test fuel pump for pressure (refer to Group 14,
Fuel System for the proper specifications).
(10) Inspect air filter element (refer to Group 0,
Lubrication and Maintenance for the proper proce-
dure).
(11) Inspect crankcase ventilation system (refer to
Group 0, Lubrication and Maintenance for the proper
procedure).
(12) For emission controls refer to Group 25, Emis-
sion Controls System for service procedures.
(13) Inspect and adjust accessory belt drives (refer
to Group 7, Cooling System for the proper adjust-
ments).
(14) Road test vehicle as a final test.
HONING CYLINDER BORES
Before honing, stuff plenty of clean shop towels un-
der the bores and over the crankshaft to keep abra-
sive materials from entering the crankshaft area.
(1) Used carefully, the Cylinder Bore Sizing Hone
C-823 equipped with 220 grit stones, is the best tool
for this job. In addition to deglazing, it will reduce
taper and out-of-round as well as removing light
scuffing, scoring or scratches. Usually a few strokes
will clean up a bore and maintain the required lim-
its.
CAUTION: DO NOT use rigid type hones to remove
cylinder wall glaze.
(2) Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done if
the cylinder bore is straight and round. Use a cylin-
der surfacing hone, Honing Tool C-3501, equipped
with 280 grit stones (C-3501-3810). 20-60 strokes, de-
pending on the bore condition, will be sufficient to
provide a satisfactory surface. Using honing oil
C-3501-3880 or a light honing oil available from ma-
jor oil distributors.
