switch to ground on circuit Z1. The switch closes dur-
ing periods of high power steering pump load and
low engine speed; such as parking maneuvers. Cir-
cuit K10 connects to cavity 10 of the PCM.
TACHOMETER SIGNAL
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) supplies the
signal for the tachometer on circuit G21. Circuit G21
connects to cavity 43 of the PCM.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides
ground for the instrument cluster malfunction indica-
tor lamp on circuit G3. The MIL displays the mes-
sage CHECK ENGINE when illuminated. Circuit G5
provides voltage for the lamp.
DATA LINK CONNECTOR
Circuit G50 supplies battery voltage to the data
link connector. Circuit G50 originates at fuse 5 in the
fuse block. Circuit G50 is double crimped at the data
link connector and connects to cavity 9 of the Power-
train Control Module (PCM).
Circuit A21 from the ignition switch powers fuse 5
when the switch is in the START or RUN positions.
In the START or RUN position the ignition switch
connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) with circuit A21.
Circuit D20 connects to cavity 45 of the PCM. Cir-
cuit D20 is the SCI receive circuit for the PCM.
Circuit D21 connects to cavity 25 of the PCM. Cir-
cuit D21 is the SCI transmit circuit for the PCM.
Circuit Z11 provides ground for the data link con-
nector. Circuit Z11 splices to circuit Z1 which termi-
nates at the right rear of the engine. Circuit Z11 also
connects to cavity 5 of the PCM.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Circuit Z1 also supplies a ground for the PCM
high current drivers.
²If the system loses ground for the Z1 and Z11 cir-
cuits at the right rear of the engine, the vehicle will
not operate. Check the connection at the ganged-
ground circuit eyelet.
BRAKE SWITCH INPUT
Circuit V40 provides the brake switch input to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Circuit V40 con-
nects to cavity 29 of the PCM.
POWER (DEVICE) GROUND
Circuit Z11 connects to cavities 11 and 12 of the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The Z1 circuit
provides ground for PCM internal drivers that oper-
ate high current devices like the injectors and igni-
tion coil.
Internal to the PCM, the power (device) ground cir-
cuit connects to the PCM sensor return circuit (from
circuit K4).
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²The grounding point for circuit Z1 is the right rear
of the engine.
²If the system loses ground for the Z1 circuits at
the rear of the engine, the vehicle will not operate.
Check the connection at the ganged-ground circuit
eyelet.

HORN/CIGAR LIGHTER
HORN
The horn system uses a switch and horn relay. The
horn switch is in the center of the steering wheel.
Circuit A4 from fuse 8 in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) feeds circuit F31 through fuse 15 in
the PDC. Circuit F31 is HOT at all times and powers
the coil and contact sides of the horn relay.
When the case grounded horn switch is pressed,
circuit X3 provides ground for the coil side of the re-
lay and the contacts close. When the contacts close,
circuit X2 supplies voltage to the horn. Circuit Z1
provides ground for the horn.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²The horn switch is grounded to the steering wheel.
²Circuit F31 is double crimped at the coil side of
the horn relay.
²Check fuse 8 in the PDC and fuse 15 in the fuse
block.
CIGAR LIGHTER
In the ACCESSORY or RUN position, the ignition
switch supplies voltage to fuse 7 in the fuse block on
circuit A31. Fuse 7 feeds circuit F30 which connects
to the cigar lighter. When the lighter is depressed,
the contacts inside of the lighter element close and
voltage flows to ground on circuit Z1.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²In the ACCESSORY or RUN position, the ignition
switch connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the PDC
with circuit A31.
²Circuit F30 also powers the radio and radio relay.

missing or are compressed, replace the engine cylin-
der head cover. However, sections with minor damage
such as small cracks, cuts or chips may be repaired
with a hand held applicator. The new material must
be smoothed over to maintain gasket height. Allow
the gasket material to cure prior to engine cylinder
head cover installation.
