DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

(b) If the horn does not sound, install horn relay
and refer to Horn Test.
HORNS WILL NOT SOUND
Check horn fuse 6 in the Power Distribution Cen-
ter and fuse 7 in the Junction Block. If fuse is blown
refer to FUSE BLOWN section. If fuse is OK, refer to
FUSE OK section.
FUSE BLOWN
(1) Verify condition of battery terminals and volt-
age, refer to Group 8A, Battery. If battery connec-
tions and battery charge is OK proceed to Step 2.
(2) Using a voltmeter, test for battery voltage at
both sides of horn fuse 7. If voltage is OK, on both
sides of fuse, proceed to Fuse OK. If voltage is OK,
on one side of fuse, the fuse is blown, proceed to Step
3.
(3) Using a suitable ammeter in place of the fuse,
test amperage draw of the horn circuit. If amperage
draw is greater than 20 amps without the horn
switch depressed, a grounded circuit exists between
the fuse and the horn relay. Proceed to Step 4. If
amperage draw is greater than 20 amps with the
horn switch depressed, a grounded circuit exists
between the horn relay and the horn. Proceed to step
Step 5.
(4) Remove the horn relay from the Junction
Block. If the amperage draw drops to 0 amps, the
horn switch or circuit is shorted. Refer to group 8W,
Wiring Diagrams for circuit information. If the
amperage draw does not drop to 0 amps, repair short
at the Junction Block.
(5) Disengage a wire connector from one of the
horns. If amperage drops and the connected horn
sounds, replace the faulty horn. If amperage does not
drop with both horns disconnected and the horn
switch depressed, proceed to Step 6.
(6) Using a continuity tester, with the horns dis-
connected test continuity of the X2 cavity of the horn
relay to ground. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams
for circuit information. If continuity is detected, the
circuit is grounded between the Junction Block and
the horns. Locate and repair pinched harness.
FUSE OK
(1) Remove the horn relay from the Junction
Block.
(2) Using a continuity tester, Depress horn switch
and test continuity from the X3 cavity of the horn
relay to ground. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams
for circuit information.
(a) If continuity is detected, proceed to Step 3.
(b) If NO continuity, proceed to Step 4.
(3) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across the
fuse F62 cavity and the X2 cavity of the horn relay in
the Junction Block.

Refer to Horn System Test below. If the horn does
not sound, check horn fuse located in the Power Dis-
tribution Center. If the fuse is blown, replace with
the correct fuse. If the horn fail to sound and the
new fuse blows when depressing the horn switch, a
short circuit in the horn or the horn wiring between
the fuse terminal and the horn is responsible, or a
defective horn switch allowed the horn to burn out is
responsible.
If the fuse is OK, test horn relay refer to Horn
Relay Test.
If the relay is OK, test horn. Refer to Horn System
Test.

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
The speed control system is electronically con-
trolled and vacuum operated. The electronic control
is integrated into the powertrain control module,
located next to battery. The controls are located on
the steering wheel and consist of the ON/OFF, SET,
RESUME/ACCEL, CANCEL and DECEL buttons
(Fig. 1).
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SPEED CONTROL SERVO
The servo unit consists of a solenoid valve body,
and a vacuum chamber. The PCM controls the sole-
noid valve body. The solenoid valve body controls the
application and release of vacuum to the diaphragm
of the vacuum servo. The servo unit cannot be
repaired and is serviced only as a complete assembly.
SPEED CONTROL SWITCHES
There are two separate switch pods that operate
the speed control system. The steering-wheel-
mounted switches use multiplexed circuits to provide
inputs to the PCM for ON, OFF, RESUME, ACCEL-
ERATE, SET, DECEL and CANCEL modes. Refer to
the owner's manual for more information on speed
control switch functions and setting procedures.
When speed control is selected by depressing the
ON switch, the PCM allows a set speed to be stored
in RAM for speed control. To store a set speed,
depress the SET switch while the vehicle is moving
at a speed between 30 and 85 mph. In order for the
speed control to engage, the brakes cannot be
applied, nor can the gear selector be indicating the
transmission is in Park or Neutral.
The speed control can be disengaged manually by:
²Stepping on the brake pedal

NSVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM 8H - 1

STEP IS NOT DONE A DIAGONSTIC TROUBLE
CODE (DTC) MAY BE SET.
VACUUM RESERVOIR
The reservoir contains a one-way check valve to
trap engine vacuum in the reservoir. When engine
vacuum drops, as in climbing a grade while driving,
the reservoir supplies the vacuum needed to main-
tain proper speed control operation. The vacuum res-
ervoir cannot be repaired and must be replaced if
faulty.
VEHICLE SPEED AND DISTANCE
The 4 speed automatic Transmission Control Mod-
ule (TCM) supplies the speed input to the PCM. The
PCM determines acceleration rates. The speed con-
trol software in the PCM uses vehicle speed and
acceleration to control to the set speed.
Vehicles with a 3 speed automatic or manual trans-
mission have a vehicle speed sensor (VSS) mounted
to an adapter near the transmission output shaft.
The sensor is driven through the adapter by a speed-
ometer pinion gear. The VSS pulse signal is moni-
tored by the PCM to determine vehicle speed and to
maintain speed control set speed. Refer to the appro-
priate Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures manual for
diagnosis and testing of this component. Refer to
group 14, Fuel System for Removal/Installation
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
ROAD TEST
Perform a vehicle road test to verify reports of
speed control system malfunction. The road test
should include attention to the speedometer. Speed-
ometer operation should be smooth and without flut-
ter at all speeds.
Flutter in the speedometer indicates a problem
which might cause surging in the speed control sys-
tem. The cause of any speedometer problems should
be corrected before proceeding. Refer to Group 8E,
Instrument Panel and Gauges for speedometer diag-
nosis.
If a road test verifies a surge following a set and
the speedometer operates properly see ªOvershoot/
Undershoot on speed control setº.
If a road test verifies an inoperative system, and
the speedometer operates properly, check for:
²A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). If a DTC
exists, conduct tests per the Powertrain Diagnostic
Procedures service manual.
²A misadjusted brake (stop) lamp switch. This
could also cause an intermittent problem.
²Loose or corroded electrical connections at the
servo. Corrosion should be removed from electricalterminals and a light coating of Mopar Multipurpose
Grease, or equivalent, applied.
²Leaking vacuum reservoir.
²Loose or leaking vacuum hoses or connections.
²Defective one-way vacuum check valve.
²Secure attachment at both ends of the speed
control servo cable.
²Smooth operation of throttle linkage and throttle
body air valve.
²Conduct electrical test at PCM.
²Failed speed control servo. Do the servo vacuum
test.
CAUTION: When test probing for voltage or conti-
nuity at electrical connectors, care must be taken
not to damage connector, terminals or seals. If
these components are damaged, intermittent or
complete system failure may occur.
OVERSHOOT/UNDERSHOOT FOLLOWING SPEED
CONTROL SET
If the operator repeatedly presses and releases the
set button with their foot off of the accelerator (a ªlift
foot setº to begin speed control operation), the vehicle
may accelerate and exceed the desired set speed by
up to 5 MPH (8 km/h) and then decelerate to less
than the desired set speed before finally achieving
the desired set speed.
The Speed Control has an adaptive strategy that
compensates for vehicle-to-vehicle variations in speed
control cable lengths. When the speed control is set
with the vehicle operators foot off of the accelerator
pedal, the speed control thinks there is excessive
speed control cable slack and adapts. If the lift foot
sets are continually used, the speed control over-
shoot/undershoot condition will develop.
To ªunlearnº the overshoot/undershoot condition,
the vehicle operator has to press and release the set
button while maintaining the desired set speed with
the accelerator pedal (not decelerating or accelerat-
ing), and then turn the cruise control switch to the
OFF position (or press the CANCEL button if
equipped) after waiting 10 seconds. This procedure
must be performed approximately 10±15 times to
completely unlearn the overshoot/undershoot condi-
tion.
CHECKING FOR DIAGNOSTIC CODES
When trying to verify a speed control system elec-
tronic malfunction: Connect a DRB scan tool if avail-
able to the data link connector. The connector is
located at left side of the steering column, and at
lower edge of the panel.
(1) A speed control malfunction may occur without
a diagnostic code being indicated.
