DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
NS vehicle instrument clusters are equipped with a
self diagnostic test feature to help identify electronic
problems. Prior to any test, perform Self Diagnostic
Test. The self diagnostic system monitors the CCD
bus messages. If an electronic problem occurs, a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be displayed in
the odometer window of the cluster.
The following CCD bus messages are continuously
monitored by the diagnostic system:
²Body Control Module
²Powertrain Control Module
²Transmission Control Module, if equipped
HEADLAMP SWITCH
Using a Digital Multimeter, equipped with a diode
test to perform the Headlamp Switch Test below (Fig.
1).
Switch position possibilities are open (no continu-
ity), continuity, resistance value in ohms, or diode
test. Use the values in the third column to determine
meter setting. If Headlamp Switch is not within spec-
ifications replace as necessary.
The Chrysler Town and Country is available with
optional Automatic Headlamps. For diagnosis, refer
to the proper Body Diagnostic Procedures Manual.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

TEST 2
Test 2 checks the antenna for an open circuit as
follows:
(1) Unplug the antenna coaxial cable connector
from the radio chassis.
(2) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the tip of
the antenna mast. Connect the other test lead to the
center pin of the antenna coaxial cable connector.
(3) Continuity should exist (the ohmmeter should
only register a fraction of an ohm). High or infinite
resistance indicates damage to the base and cable
assembly. Replace the faulty base and cable, if
required.
TEST 3
Test 3 checks the condition of the vehicle body
ground connection. This test should be performed
with the battery positive cable removed from the bat-
tery. Disconnect both battery cables, the negative
cable first. Reconnect the battery negative cable and
perform the test as follows:
(1) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the vehicle
fender. Connect the other test lead to the battery
negative post.
(2) The resistance should be less than (1) ohm.
(3) If the resistance is more than (1) ohm, check
the braided ground strap connected to the engine and
the vehicle body for being loose, corroded, or dam-
aged. Repair the ground strap connection, if required.
TEST 4
Test 4 checks the condition of the ground between
the antenna base and the vehicle body as follows:(1) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the vehicle
fender. Connect the other test lead to the outer crimp
on the antenna coaxial cable connector.
(2) The resistance should be less then (1) ohm.
(3) If the resistance is more then (1) ohm, clean
and/or tighten the antenna base to fender mounting
hardware.

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

doors and sounds horn (chirp) and arm the Vehicle
Theft Security System. The chirp verifies the door
lock operation.
²PANIC: Pressing the PANIC button sounds the
horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
²The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s)
(VAC) in its memory even after vehicle power has
been interrupted.
²The RKE system activates the optional memory
seat and mirror system, if equipped. Two primary
key fob transmitters can be programmed to actuate
memory seat and mirror setting 1 or 2. Two addi-
tional key fob transmitters can be added, but they
will not be able to operate the memory seat and mir-
ror system. Refer to Group 8R, Power Seats and
Group 8T, Power Mirrors for memory system infor-
mation.
VEHICLE ACCESS CODE (VAC) PROGRAMMING
The RKE module is capable of retaining up to four
different Vehicle Access Codes. Whenever the vehicle
battery power is interrupted the RKE Module willretain all vehicle access codes in its memory. When
replacing or adding a key fob transmitter (maximum
4) a functional key fob transmitter is required to pro-
gram the RKE Module to accept the new Vehicle
Access Code. If a functional key fob transmitter is
not available, a scan tool (DRB) can be used to pro-
gram the RKE Module. Refer to the proper Body
Diagnostic Procedures manual for Vehicle Access
Code programming procedures using a scan tool.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
RKE DIAGNOSTICS
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit
information and component locations. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for test-
ing the Remote Keyless Entry system using a scan

MODE 2
Diagnostic mode 2 provides a way to determine if
the seat/mirror motors and position sensors are con-
nected properly.
ACTIVATION-Press and hold the S and 2 buttons
for 5 seconds to enter diagnostic mode 2. This mode
is exited after 5 seconds of switch inactivity or upon
grounding the RKE input by moving the transmis-
sion out of the PARK position.
Mode 2 will:
²Place the seat and mirror motors at their mid-
point
²When a single axis of seat or mirror motion is
requested by pressing a switch, the corresponding
motor is energized. This tests switch input and motor
output
²When the switch is released, the motor will
automatically return to its original position. If the
corresponding sensor is out of range, then the motor
will not return to its original position. This tests the
integrity of the sensors and motor outputs. Refer to
(Fig. 3), (Fig. 4), (Fig. 5) and (Fig. 6) for module con-
nector call outs.

If FAIL is displayed, replace the module.
If CCd is displayed, check the CCD and Body Con-
trol Module (BCM) for proper operation, refer to the
appropriate diagnostic test procedures manual If the
CCD and the BCM are OK, replace the CMTC mod-
ule.
For additional diagnostic information on the CMTC
and for identifying CMTC problems, refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual.
COMPASS MINI-TRIP COMPUTER (CMTC)
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) system
is located in the overhead console. CMTC consists of
a electronic control module with a vacuum fluores-
cent display (VFD) and function switches. The CMTC
consists of a electronic module that displays compass,
trip computer, and temperature features. Actuating
the STEP switch will cause the CMTC to change
mode of operation when ignition is ON. Example:
²Compass/Temperature
²Trip odometer (ODO)
²Average miles per gallon (ECO)
²Instant miles per gallon (ECO)
²Distance to empty (DTE)
²Elapsed time (ET)
²Off
The CMTC module in the overhead console has
three buttons used to select various functions. The
CMTC selector buttons will not operate until the
ignition is in the RUN position (Fig. 1).
When the ignition switch is first turned to the
RUN position the CMTC display;
²Blanks momentarily
²All segments of the VFD will light for one sec-
ond
²Blanks momentarily
²Returns to the last mode setting selected before
the ignition was last switched OFF.
NSOVERHEAD CONSOLE 8V - 1

²Rotate your hand-held transmitter end-over-end
and train again. For best results, place the end oppo-
site from the battery compartment against the uni-
versal transmitter while training.
²The frequency of the hand-held transmitter may
not be in the desired frequencies between 286MHz
and 399MHz set by FCC.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
COMPASS CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Variance is the difference between magnetic North
and geographic North (Fig. 4). To adjust the compass
variance set the CMTC to Compass/Temperature
mode and press RESET buttons for 5 seconds. The
symbol VAR and the current variance zone number
will be displayed. Press the STEP button to select
the proper variance zone as shown in (Fig. 4). Press
the US/Metric button to save the new variance zone
and normal CMTC operation. If both buttons are
held for 10 seconds instead 5 seconds the CMTC will
set variance to 8 and enter the fast calibration mode.
COMPASS CALIBRATION PROCEDURE (FAST
METHOD)
When the compass is subjected to excessive mag-
netic fields, the CMTC automatically enters a fast
calibration mode where is tries to compensate for the
large magnetic shifts.If the compass is inaccurate, appears to be inaccu-
rate and the CAL is not illuminated the fast calibra-
tion mode may be manually entered by using the
following procedure.
(1) Set the CMTC to Compass/Temperature mode
and press the reset button for 10 continuous seconds.
Manual activation of the fast calibration is generally
not required.
(2) Compass variance sets to the default of 8 after
the fast calibration is manually activated.
(3) Complete the compass variance setting proce-
dure by referring to the Compass Variance Procedure
in this section
(4) Drive the vehicle in three 360É turns in an area
free from large metal objects. If the CAL symbol
remains lit after completing this step, the roof panel
may need demagnetizing
DEMAGNETIZING PROCEDURE
A magnetic field can adversely affect the compass.
Magnetic interference can magnetize the roof panel.
Magnetizing can be caused by placing a permanent
magnet in contact with the roof panel. Example:
²Magnetic Base Antenna
²Magnetic screwdriver
²Audio speakers
²Refrigerator magnets.
²Pizza Signs
²Bubble gum flasher lights
