GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
The turn signals are actuated with a lever on the
left side of the steering column just ahead of the
steering wheel. The signals are automatically turned
off by a canceling cam (two lobes molded to the clock-
spring mechanism). The cam comes in contact with
the cancel actuator on the turn signal (multi-func-
tion) switch assembly. Either cam lobe, pushing on
the cancel actuator, returns the switch to the OFF
position.
Lane change signaling is actuated by applying par-
tial turn signal stalk movement toward the direction
desired until the indicator lamps flashes in the
instrument cluster. When the switch stalk is released
the stalk will spring back into the neutral position
turning OFF the turn signal.
With the ignition switch ON and the turn signal
switch stalk actuated left or right, current flows
through the:
²Combination flasher
²Multi-function switch
²Turn indicator lamp
²Front and rear turn signal bulbs.
A chime will sound after the vehicle has traveled a
distance of approximately 0.5 mile with the turn sig-
nal ON.
COMBINATION FLASHER
The Turn Signal/Hazard Warning Flasher is a
module providing the vehicle with turn signal and
hazard warning functions and has been designed
with internal relays to take advantage of low current
switching requirements in the vehicle. It is plugged
into the Junction Block at position 4 (Fig. 1), where
all wiring associated with its operation is terminated.The Junction Block is adjacent to and left of the
steering column of the vehicle.
To gain access to the flasher, remove the lower
steering column cover and knee blocker. Refer to
Group 8E, Instrument Panel and Systems for
removal procedures.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
When continuous rear wiper operation is required,
the Body Control Module (BCM) will provide ignition
ON voltage to the rear wiper motor. When the wiper
switch is turned OFF, the BCM provides circuit
ground to operate the motor until the wipe cycle is
complete and the wiper arm returns to the base of
the rear window.
When intermittent rear wiper mode is selected, the
wiper motor will cycle every 7 seconds. The intermit-
tent delay time is also adjusted based upon vehicle
speed. With the vehicle traveling greater at 50 mph,
the cycle changes to every 5 seconds.
REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER SWITCHES
The rear window wiper/washer switches are incor-
porated into the HVAC switch panel. Refer to Group
8E, Instrument Panel for proper service procedures.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
The rear window wiper system operates in several
modes:

SERVICE PROCEDURES (Continued)

coming from the module, replace the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module.
²If P9 low current battery is present at (cavity 5)
referenced to ground Z1 (cavity 1) of the seat switch,
verify the presence of the P9 voltage at the switch
outputs. If there is no output voltage from the
switch, replace the switch.
²If P9 voltage is present at the output of the
switch, but there is no reaction from the memory
seat/mirror module, verify that the P9 voltage is
present at the appropriate 21-way connector pins
into the module. If the P9 voltage is not present at
the 21-way connector, repair or replace the seat wir-
ing harness. If the verification check of the seat wir-
ing harness is correct, replace the control module.
(2) If the control module does not respond with a
relay click to a specific seat switch when actuated,
verify the continuity of the particular circuit between
the seat switch and the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
If the P9 voltage is present at the correct input of the
21-way connector of the module when the switch is
actuated, but there is no response by the module,
replace the Memory Seat/Mirror Module.
(3) If the Memory Seat/Mirror Module responds
with a relay click when a seat switch is actuated for
a given direction, but there is no reaction from a seat
or recliner motor relating to that switch input, dis-
connect the 10-way connector from the control mod-
ule. Jumper the battery and ground from cavities 8
and 7 of the seat harness 10-way connector to the
proper cavities for the seat or recliner motor in ques-
tion and direction of travel desired. If the motor oper-
ates, replace the control module. If the motor does
not operate, verify continuity of the wiring into the
motor 2-way connector. Repair or replace the wiring
as necessary. If the wiring has continuity, and the
motor will not operate when fed directly, replace the
track assembly, since the motor/transmission combi-
nations are not designed to be serviced on an individ-
ual basis.
SEAT AND RECLINER POSITION SENSING
Seat and recliner position sense ground reference
circuit P28 BR/RD feed is from the memory seat/mir-
ror module (cavity 10) 21-way connector to each of
the position sense connectors.
Seat and recliner position sense +5 volt feed circuit
P29 BR/WT feed is from the memory seat/mirror
module (cavity 20) 21-way connector to each of the
position sense connectors.
To test for the presence of a sense voltage, a volt
meter must be used as follows:
²Connect the negative probe to the P28 circuit
(cavity 10) of the 21-way connector.
²Connect the positive probe to the P29 circuit
(cavity 20) of the 21-way connector and verify a volt-age reading between 3.5 and 5 volts when a seat or
recliner switch is activated.An internal timer in
the Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module)
regulates the length of time this voltage stays
active i.e., 3 seconds from the time that the
switch was activated, unless the switch is held
or while the transmission is out of PARK.If the
voltage is less than 3.5, there is a fault in the system
that is drawing it down. To troubleshoot this circuit,
disconnect the 25-way connector from the MSM Mod-
ule (this removes all of the vehicle mirror circuitry).
If the voltage is still less than 3.5, disconnect each of
the position sense connectors from each of the
motors. If the voltage remains less than 3.5, replace
the MSM Module. If the voltage increases when a
motor is disconnected from the system, determine if
the fault is in the wiring or the motor assembly.
Repair or replace the wire harness assembly as
needed. If the fault is in the motor position sensing
potentiometer, replace the track assembly.
²The potentiometers built onto the motor end-bell
provide voltages to the MSM Module through the
21-way connector, which change as follows, corre-
sponding to the given seat actuations. Refer to Seat
Actuations Table.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) DATA LINK
The memory seat/mirror module interfaces with
the RKE via a serial data link (single wire). The pro-
gramming sequence to relate an RKE transmitter to
the chosen seat, recliner and side view mirror posi-
tions consists of the following steps:
(1) Adjust the seat, recliner and side view mirrors
to the desired position.
(2) Press momentarily and release memory switch
S.
(3) Press momentarily and release memory switch
1or2.
(4) Press momentarily and release a LOCK button
on an RKE transmitter.
(5) To program the second driver's position, follow
the previous sequence with a second transmitter.
(6) To recall either of the programmed positions
with an RKE transmitter, press momentarily and
release an UNLOCK button on one of the pro-
grammed RKE transmitters.An unprogrammed
RKE transmitter will have no effect on the sys-
tem.
(7) The RKE receiver uses the serial data link to
notify the module of a request from a programmed
transmitter, that an UNLOCK button has been
pressed. This UNLOCK request (from a transmitter
associated with either switch 1 or 2) will activate the
NSPOWER SEATS 8R - 9
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

SEAT BELT CHIME
The seat belt chime will sound for 4 to 8 seconds,
when the ignition is turned on and the driver's seat
belt is not buckled (seat belt switch is closed to
ground). This is a reminder to the driver to buckle
the seat belt. The seat belt lamp is controlled by the
mechanical instrument cluster. The cluster will also
illuminate the seat belt warning lamp for 6 seconds.
Buckling the driver's seat belt before the time out
has expired will cause the chime to stop immediately.
Chime rate: 38 to 62 chimes per minute.
To test the seat belt warning system, the ignition
switch must be in the OFF position for 1 minute
before starting the test. Turn the ignition switch to
the on position with the driver's seat belt not buck-
led. The seat belt warning lamp should light and the
chime should sound 4 to 8 seconds.
SEAT BELT LAMP
The seat belt lamp in the instrument cluster sig-
nals the vehicle passengers to fasten their seat belts.
The seat belt lamp is illuminated directly by the
instrument cluster for 6 seconds after the instrument
cluster receives the message from the Body Control
Module. The seat belt lamp is therefore illuminated
for 6 seconds whenever the ignition switch is moved
to run/start position.
(1) While ignition is off, the seat belt lamp will not
be illuminated.
(2) The ignition power feed status will be updated
every 250 milliseconds or on change.
(3) This lamp will be checked by the instrument
cluster for 6 seconds with every run/start cycle of the
ignition switch.
TURN SIGNAL ON CHIME
The turn signal on chime will warn the driver that
the turn signals have been left on. When the Body
Control Module receives a turn signal input for 1.6
km (1.0 miles), vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h
(15 mph), the chime will sound continuously until the
turn signal is turned OFF. If vehicle speed drops
below 24 km/h (15 mph) prior to the warning being
activated, the accumulated distance traveled will be
reset. The turn signal chime is not activated whenthe emergency flashers are turned on. This feature
can also be disabled in EEPROM. Chime rate: 38 to
62 chimes per minute.
For the turn signal warning system to operate:
²Must have input from either the right or left
turn signal lamps. Creates a voltage change between
0 and battery voltage.
²The vehicle speed sensor sends a message to the
Powertrain Control Module that vehicle has exceeded
24 km/h (15 mph) for 1.6 km (1.0 miles).
²When the above two conditions are met, the
chime will sound. The chime will stop when no fur-
ther voltage change is detected.
²If hazard warning signals are pulsing, no chime
will sound.
²If speed drops below 24 km/h (15 mph) before
the warning is issued, the warning will not be issued
and the distance counter will be reset.
²If turn signal lamps are not working properly,
the chime will not sound.
²When using the scan tool, refer to the proper
Body Diagnostic Manual for the procedure.
WARNING LAMP ANNOUNCEMENT CHIME
The warning lamp announcement chime will warn
the driver to scan the instrument cluster to observe
which warning lamp is illuminated. Whenever the
volts, low fuel, low washer fluid, coolant level (gas/
diesel), low coolant level, engine temperature high
(diesel only), door ajar or gate ajar lamps are first
illuminated, the chime will sound one tone. The door/
liftgate ajar warning lamp announcement chime
sounds only if the vehicle speed is above 2 m.p.h.
Two seconds after ignition switch is turned ON or
until the seat belt warning chime ends, all warning
announcement chimes will be consolidated into one
warning announcement. This will occur 2 seconds
after the seat belt warning chime ends. If a warning
announcement should occur while another warning
chime in progress (turn signal, low oil pressure or
high speed warnings), no additional chimes will
sound after the chime in progress ends. All associ-
ated lamps will be illuminated, and the active chime
will be the warning announcement.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
GENERAL INFORMATION
Engine diagnosis is helpful in determining the
causes of malfunctions.
These malfunctions may be classified as either
mechanical (e.g., a strange noise), or performance
(e.g., engine idles rough and stalls).
Refer to the Service DiagnosisÐMechanical Chart
and the Service DiagnosisÐPerformance Chart, for
possible causes and corrections of malfunctions. Refer
to Group 14, Fuel System, for the fuel system diag-
nosis.
Additional tests and diagnostic procedures may be
necessary for specific engine malfunctions that can-
not be isolated with the Service Diagnosis charts.
Information concerning additional tests and diagno-
sis is provided within the following:
²Cylinder Compression Pressure Test
²Cylinder Combustion Pressure Leakage Test
²Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Failure Diagnosis
²Intake Manifold Leakage Diagnosis
INTAKE MANIFOLD LEAKAGE DIAGNOSIS
An intake manifold air leak is characterized by
lower than normal manifold vacuum. Also, one or
more cylinders may not be functioning.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN A
DIRECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR THE FAN.
DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
(1) Start the engine.
(2) Spray a small stream of water (Spray Bottle) at
the suspected leak area.
(3) If a change in RPM'S, the area of the suspected
leak has been found.
(4) Repair as required.
CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE TEST
The results of a cylinder compression pressure test
can be utilized to diagnose several engine malfunc-
tions.
Ensure the battery is completely charged and the
engine starter motor is in good operating condition.
Otherwise the indicated compression pressures may
not be valid for diagnosis purposes.
(1) Check engine oil level and add oil if necessary.
(2) Drive the vehicle until engine reaches normal
operating temperature. Select a route free from traf-
fic and other forms of congestion, observe all traffic
laws, and accelerate through the gears several times
briskly.
(3) Remove all spark plugs from engine. As spark
plugs are being removed, check electrodes for abnor-
mal firing indicators fouled, hot, oily, etc. Record cyl-
inder number of spark plug for future reference.
(4) Disconnect coil wire from distributor and
secure to good ground to prevent a spark from start-
ing a fire (Conventional Ignition System). For Direct
Ignition System DIS disconnect the coil connector.
(5) Be sure throttle blade is fully open during the
compression check.
(6) Insert compression gage adaptor into the #1
spark plug hole in cylinder head. Crank engine until
maximum pressure is reached on gage. Record this
pressure as #1 cylinder pressure.
(7) Repeat the previous step for all remaining cyl-
inders.
(8) Compression should not be less than (689kPa)
100 psi and not vary more than 25 percent from cyl-
inder to cylinder.
(9) If one or more cylinders have abnormally low
compression pressures, repeat the compression test.
(10) If the same cylinder or cylinders repeat an
abnormally low reading on the second compression
test, it could indicate the existence of a problem in
the cylinder in question.The recommended com-
pression pressures are to be used only as a
guide to diagnosing engine problems. An engine
should not be disassembled to determine the
