²Stores transmitter data in permanent memory -
retraining is not required even if the battery dies or
is disconnected.
To operate, simply press the appropriate button on
the Universal Transmitter. The red LED will light up
while the signal is being transmitted.
NOTE: For security reasons, you are able to erase
the trained frequencies.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
READING/DOME LAMP DIAGNOSIS
The dome lamps operate in conjunction with the
Remote Keyless Entry system. Refer to the Wiring
Diagrams group of this manual for component loca-
tions and circuit information. For additional diagnos-
tic information on lamp operation controlled by Body
Control Module (BCM) refer to the Body Diagnostic
Procedures Manual. For diagnosis of the reading
lamps and switches refer to (Fig. 3).
TRAVELER MESSAGES
Traveler data is obtained from the Body Control
Module (BCM) on the CCD bus wires. The CMTC
will not display information for any of the screens forwhich it did not receive the bus messages. The label
corresponding to the missing information will be lit.
If no traveler data is displayed, check the CCD com-
munications and the BCM. If the brightness level is
improper check the CCD bus. One general method
for checking the CCD bus communications between
CMTC and the BCM is refer to the following proce-
dure.
(1) STEP the CMTC to the Elapsed Time (ET).
(2) Press and release the reset button to reset the
module.
(3) If the elapsed time clock does not reset, or fails
to update, check the CCD wires and the BCM. The
DRB is recommended for checking the CCD and the
BCM.
(4) Perform the CMTC self diagnosis before replac-
ing the module.
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
Before proceeding in diagnosis, check the transmit-
ter for battery voltage and a good ground at the
transmitter harness connector.
²The unit may not have been trained correctly,
try retraining the transmitter.
²The batteries in the hand-held transmitter may
be dead.

TAKE OUTS
The abbreviation T/O is used in the component
location section to indicate a point in which the wir-
ing harness branches out to a component.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE
DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a
symbol (Fig. 4) is used to indicate this. When han-
dling any component with this symbol comply with
the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inad-
vertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume
that it is.
(1) Always touch a known good ground before han-
dling the part. This should be repeated while han-
dling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position,
or walking a distance.
(2) Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part,
unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.(3) When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the
ground lead first.
(4) Do not remove the part from its protective
packing until it is time to install the part.
(5) Before removing the part from its package,
ground the package to a known good ground on the
vehicle.
POSITIVE TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) devices are
being used for circuit protection. These PTC's act like
a solid state fuse. They are located in the junction
block, and are used to protect such items as: power
door lock motors, power windows, and various engine
solenoids.
A special symbol is used to identify these in the
wiring diagrams (Fig. 5).

(2) Add an oil soluble dye (use as recommended by
manufacturer). Start the engine and let idle for
approximately 15 minutes. Check the oil dipstick to
make sure the dye is thoroughly mixed as indicated
with a bright yellow color under a black light.
(3) Using a black light, inspect the entire engine
for fluorescent dye, particularly at the suspected area
of oil leak. If the oil leak is found and identified,
repair per service manual instructions.
(4) If dye is not observed, drive the vehicle at var-
ious speeds for approximately 24km (15 miles), and
repeat inspection.
(5)If the oil leak source is not positively
identified at this time, proceed with the air leak
detection test method as follows:
(6) Disconnect the fresh air hose (makeup air) at
the cylinder head cover and plug or cap the nipple on
the cover.
(7) Remove the PCV valve hose from the cylinder
head cover. Cap or plug the PCV valve nipple on the
cover.
(8) Attach an air hose with pressure gauge and
regulator to the dipstick tube.
CAUTION: Do not subject the engine assembly to
more than 20.6 kpa (3 PSI) of test pressure.
(9) Gradually apply air pressure from 1 psi to 2.5
psi maximum while applying soapy water at the sus-
pected source. Adjust the regulator to the suitable
test pressure that provide the best bubbles which
will pinpoint the leak source. If the oil leak is
detected and identified, repair per service manual
procedures.
(10) If the leakage occurs at the rear oil seal area,
refer to the section, Inspection for Rear Seal Area
Leak.
(11) If no leaks are detected, turn off the air sup-
ply and remove the air hose and all plugs and caps.
Install the PCV valve and breather cap hose. Proceed
to next step.
(12) Clean the oil off the suspect oil leak area
using a suitable solvent. Drive the vehicle at various
speeds approximately 24 km (15 miles). Inspect the
engine for signs of an oil leak by using a black light.INSPECTION FOR REAR SEAL AREA LEAKS
Since it is sometimes difficult to determine the
source of an oil leak in the rear seal area of the
engine, a more involved inspection is necessary. The
following steps should be followed to help pinpoint
the source of the leak.
If the leakage occurs at the crankshaft rear oil seal
area:
(1) Disconnect the battery.
(2) Raise the vehicle.
(3) Remove torque converter or clutch housing
cover and inspect rear of block for evidence of oil.
Use a black light to check for the oil leak. If a leak is
present in this area remove transmission for further
inspection.
(a) Circular spray pattern generally indicates
seal leakage or crankshaft damage.
(b) Where leakage tends to run straight down,
possible causes are a porous block, oil galley cup
plug, bedplate to cylinder block mating surfaces
and seal bore. See proper repair procedures for
these items.
(4) If no leaks are detected, pressurized the crank-
case as outlined in the, Inspection (Engine oil Leaks
in general)
CAUTION: Do not exceed 20.6 kPa (3 psi).
(5) If the leak is not detected, very slowly turn the
crankshaft and watch for leakage. If a leak is
detected between the crankshaft and seal while
slowly turning the crankshaft, it is possible the
crankshaft seal surface is damaged. The seal area on
the crankshaft could have minor nicks or scratches
that can be polished out with emery cloth.
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when crankshaft
polishing is necessary to remove minor nicks and
scratches. The crankshaft seal flange is especially
machined to complement the function of the rear oil
seal.
(6) For bubbles that remain steady with shaft
rotation, no further inspection can be done until dis-
assembled.
(7) After the oil leak root cause and appropriate
corrective action have been identified. Refer to Rear
Crankshaft Seals, for proper replacement procedures.

sealing and a chrome plated taper faced intermediate
ring for additional cylinder pressure control. There
are also standard oil control rings.
CYLINDER HEAD:Features a Dual Over Head
Camshaft (DOHC) 4 valves per cylinder cross flow
design. The valves are arranged in two inline banks,
with the ports of the bank of two intake valves per
cylinder facing toward the radiator side of engine
and ports of the bank of two exhaust valves per cyl-
inder facing toward the dash panel. Incorporates
powder metal valve guides and seats. Integral oil gal-
leys within the cylinder head supplies oil to the
hydraulic lash adjusters, camshaft and valve mecha-
nisms.
CAMSHAFTS:The nodular iron camshafts have
six bearing journals and 2 cam lobes per cylinder.
Flanges at the rear journals control camshaft end
play. Provision for cam position sensor is located on
the intake camshaft at the rear of cylinder head. A
hydrodynamic oil seal is used for oil control at the
front of the camshaft.
VALVES:4 valves per cylinder are actuated by
roller cam followers which pivot on stationary
hydraulic lash adjusters. All valves have 6 mm diam-
eter chrome plated valve stems. The valve sizes are
34.8 mm (1.370 inch.) diameter intake valves and
30.5 mm (1.20 inch.) diameter exhaust valves. Viton
rubber valve stem seals are integral with the spring
seats. Valve springs, spring retainers, and locks are
conventional.
INTAKE MANIFOLD:The intake manifold is a
two piece aluminum casting, attached to the cylinder
head with ten screws. This long branch fan design
enhances low and midspeed torque, while minimizing
undesirable inlet noise.
EXHAUST MANIFOLD:The exhaust manifold is
made of cast iron for strength and high tempera-
tures.
ENGINE LUBRICATION:Refer to Group 0
Lubrication and Maintenance for recommended oil to
be used in various engine application. System is full
flow filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump is
mounted in the front engine cover and driven by the
crankshaft. Pressurized oil is then routed through
the main oil gallery, running the length of the cylin-
der block, supplying main and rod bearings with fur-
ther routing. Pistons are lubricated from rod bearing
throw off and lubricating slots on the connecting rod
assemblies. Camshaft and valve mechanisms are
lubricated from a full length cylinder head oil gallery
supplied from the crankcase main oil gallery.DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
CHECKING ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
(1) Remove oil pressure sending unit and install
gauge assembly C-3292.
(2) Run engine until thermostat opens.
CAUTION: If oil pressure is 0 at idle, Do Not Run
engine at 3000 RPM
(3) Oil Pressure:Curb Idle25 kPa (4 psi) mini-
mum3000 RPM170/550 kPa (25/80 psi).
(4) If oil pressure is 0 at idle. Shut off engine,
check for pressure relief valve stuck open or a
clogged oil pickup screen.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
FITTING PISTONS
Piston and cylinder wall must be clean and dry.
Piston diameter should be measured 90 degrees to
piston pin about 14 mm (9/16 inch.) from the bottom
of the skirt as shown in (Fig. 3). Cylinder bores
should be measured halfway down the cylinder bore
and transverse to the engine crankshaft center line
shown in (Fig. 2). Refer to Cylinder Bore and Piston
Specification Chart.
Correct piston to bore clearance must be estab-
lished in order to assure quiet and economical oper-
ation.
Chrysler engines use pistons designed specifically
for each engine model. Clearance and sizing locations
vary with respect to engine model.
NOTE: Pistons and cylinder bores should be mea-
sured at normal room temperature, 70ÉF (21ÉC).
FITTING PISTON RINGS
(1) Wipe cylinder bore clean. Insert ring and push
down with piston to ensure it is square in bore. The
ring gap measurement must be made with the ring
positioning at least 12 mm (0.50 inch) from bottom of
cylinder bore. Check gap with feeler gauge (Fig. 4).
Refer to specification in Piston Ring Specification
Chart.
(2) Check piston ring to groove side clearance (Fig.
5). Refer to specification in Piston Ring Specification
Chart.
