SMART KEY IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM INDICATOR
LAMP
The Smart Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indica-
tor lamp gives an indication when the SKIS is faulty
or when the vehicle has been immobilized due to the
use of an invalid ignition key. The lamp is controlled
by the instrument cluster circuitry based upon mes-
sages received from the Smart Key Immobilizer Mod-
ule (SKIM) on the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD)
data bus.
The SKIM sends messages to the instrument clus-
ter to turn the lamp on for about three seconds when
the ignition switch is turned to the On position as a
bulb test. After completion of the bulb test, the SKIM
sends bus messages to keep the lamp off for a dura-
tion of about one second. Then the SKIM sends mes-
sages to the instrument cluster circuitry to turn the
lamp on or off based upon the results of the SKIS
self-tests. If the SKIS indicator lamp comes on and
stays on after the bulb test, it indicates that the
SKIM has detected a system malfunction and/or that
the SKIS has become inoperative. If the SKIM
detects an invalid key when the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, it sends messages to the
instrument cluster to flash the SKIS indicator lamp.
The SKIM can also send messages to the instru-
ment cluster to flash the lamp and to generate a sin-
gle audible chime tone. These functions serve as an
indication to the customer that the SKIS has been
placed in its ªCustomer Learnº programming mode.
See Smart Key Immobilizer System Transponder Pro-
gramming in this group for more information on the
ªCustomer Learnº programming mode.
The SKIS indicator lamp uses a replaceable incan-
descent bulb and bulb holder on the instrument clus-
ter electronic circuit board. Refer to Group 8E -
Instrument Panel Systems for diagnosis and service
of a faulty SKIS indicator lamp. If the SKIS indicator
lamp comes on and stays on after the bulb test func-
tion, diagnosis of the SKIS should be performed with
a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual.

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Front door window lift motors use permanent type
magnets. The B+ and ground applied at the motor
terminal pins will cause the motor to rotate in one
direction. Reversing current through the motor ter-
minals will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite
direction.
The power window motors ground through the
master switch in the driver door (Fig. 1) by a black
wire attached to the left cowl panel. Refer to Group
8W, Wiring Diagrams from circuit information and
component locations.
The power rear vent windows, if equipped, are
operated by switches mounted in the driver door
switch bezel. A separate switch is used for each win-
dow. Permanent magnet type motors connected to a
crank system are used to open and close the rear
vent windows. A battery positive and negative con-
nection to either of the two motor terminals will
cause the motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing
current through these same two connections willcause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit infor-
mation and component locations.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
POWER VENT WINDOW MOTOR TEST
If the power vent window motor is receiving proper
current and ground and does not operate proceed
with motor test. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams
for circuit information and component locations.
(1) Remove D-pillar trim panel necessary to gain
access to power vent window motor wire connector,
refer to Group 23, Body for proper procedures.
(2) Disconnect power vent window motor wire con-
nector from body harness.
(3) Using two jumper wires, connect one to a bat-
tery (+) source and the other to a good ground (-).
(4) Connect the Negative (-) jumper probe to one of
the motor connector terminals.
(5) Momentarily touch the Positive (+) jumper
probe to the other motor connector terminal.
When positive probe is connected the motor should
rotate in one direction to either move window open or
closed. If window is all the way open or closed the
motor will grunt and the crank system will flex when
actuated in that one direction.
Reverse jumper probes at the motor connector ter-
minals and window should now move in opposite
direction. If window does not move or grunt, replace
the motor.
If window moved completely open or closed, reverse
the jumper probes and cycle window to the opposite
position to verify full operation.
If motor grunts and does not move, verify that
crank system is not binding.

POWER WINDOW AND VENT SWITCH TEST
(1) Remove the driver or passenger door power
window switch and bezel assembly from door trim
panel. Refer to group 23, Body for proper procedures.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, Test driver door switch for
continuity as described in (Fig. 2).
* MUST TEST WITH B+ ON PIN 9 AND
GROUND ON PIN 13 FOR CONTINUITY
BETWEEN PINS 11 AND 6
(3) Test passenger door switch for continuity as
described in (Fig. 3).
(4) If the results are not OK, replace the switch.
The driver door power window switch has a Auto-
Down feature. The switch is equipped with two
detent positions when actuating the power window
OPEN. The first detent position allows the window to
roll down and stop when the switch is released. The
second detent position actuates an integral express
roll down relay that rolls the window down after theswitch is released. When the express down relay
senses an amperage spike (motor pushing against
down stop) in the feed circuit, current is turned off to
the motor. The AUTO feature can be cancelled by
actuating the switch UP or DOWN while window is
in motion. Failure of the electronic switch to detect
an amperage spike will cause the switch to discon-
nect after approximately 11 seconds.
POWER WINDOW MOTOR TEST
If the power window motor is receiving proper cur-
rent and ground and does not operate proceed with
motor test. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for
circuit information and component locations.
(1) Remove front door trim panel and water shield
as necessary to gain access to power window motor
wire connector, refer to Group 23, Body for proper
procedures.
(2) Disconnect power window motor wire connector
from door harness.
(3) Using two jumper wires, connect one to a bat-
tery (+) source and the other to a good ground (-).
(4) Connect the Negative (-) jumper probe to one of
the motor connector terminals.
(5) Momentarily touch the Positive (+) jumper
probe to the other motor connector terminal.
When positive probe is connected the motor should
rotate in one direction to either move window up or
down. If window is all the way up or down the motor
will grunt and the inner door panel will flex when
actuated in that one direction.
(6) Reverse jumper probes at the motor connector
terminals and window should now move in opposite
direction. If window does not move or grunt, replace
the motor.
If window moved completely up or down, reverse
the jumper probes and cycle window to the opposite
position to verify full operation.
