DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCK
SWITCH
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) illumination lamp
of the power lock switch receives battery current
through a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM)
on a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit. The
power lock switch on the driver side front door trim
panel is integral to the driver door module. (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/DOOR MODULE
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the power lock
switch operates, but the LED is inoperative, check
for battery current at the switch with the ignition
switch in the On position. If OK, replace the faulty
switch. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Remove the power lock switch from the door
trim panel. Disconnect the door wire harness connec-
tor for the power lock switch from the switch connec-
tor receptacle.
(2) Test the power lock switch resistance. See the
Power Lock Switch Test chart to determine if the
resistance is correct for the switch in each switch
position (Fig. 1). If not OK, replace the faulty power
lock switch as required.

lock motors are integral to the door latch units.
The power lock motors cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the door latch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The door lock motors are controlled by the instru-
ment cluster. A positive and negative battery connec-
tion to the two motor terminals will cause the motor
to move in one direction. Reversing the current will
cause the motor to move in the opposite direction.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK

POWER MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT MIRROR
The automatic day/night mirror system is able to
automatically change the reflectance of the inside
rear view mirror in order to reduce the glare of head-
lamps approaching the vehicle from the rear. The
automatic day/night rear view mirror receives bat-
tery current through a fuse in the Integrated Power
Module (IPM) only when the ignition switch is in the
On position.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The power operated outside rear view mirrors
allow the driver to adjust both outside mirrors elec-
trically from the driver side front seat position by
operating a switch on the driver side front door trim
panel. The power mirrors receive a non-switched bat-
tery feed through a fuse in the Integrated Power
Module (IPM) so that the system will remain opera-
tional, regardless of the ignition switch position.
OPERATION
AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT MIRROR
A switch located on the bottom of the automatic
day/night mirror housing allows the vehicle operator
to select whether the automatic dimming feature is
operational. When the automatic day/night mirror is
turned on, the mirror switch is lighted by an integral
Light-Emitting Diode (LED). The mirror will auto-
matically disable its self-dimming feature whenever
the vehicle is being driven in reverse.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The heated mirrors include an electric heating grid
behind the mirror glass in each outside mirror, which
can clear the mirror glass of ice, snow, or fog. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED MIRRORS -
DESCRIPTION) for more information.

POWER WINDOWS
DESCRIPTION
The power window system allows each of the door
windows to be raised and lowered electrically by
actuating a switch on each door panel. A master
switch on the drivers door allows the driver to raise
or lower each of the passenger door windows and to
lock out the individual switches on the passenger
doors from operation. The power window system
receives battery feed through a fuse in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) and a circuit breaker located in
the instrument panel wiring harness near the park
brake pedal, only when the ignition switch is in the
RUN or ACCESSORY position.
OPERATION
WINDOW SWITCH
The power window switches control the battery
and ground feeds to the power window motors. The
passenger door power window switches receive their
battery and ground feeds through the circuitry of the
drivers window switch. When the power window lock-
out switch is in the Lock position, the battery feed
for the passenger door window switches is inter-
rupted.
WINDOW MOTOR
Window 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 terminals will
cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.

(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.
If motor grunts and does not move, verify that reg-
ulator is not binding.

Hard wired circuitry connects the supplemental
restraint system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired
circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system,
and to the supplemental restraint system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
ACTIVE RESTRAINTS
The primary passenger restraints in this or any
other vehicle are the standard equipment factory-in-
stalled seat belts and child restraint anchors. Seat
belts and child restraint anchors are referred to as
an active restraint because the vehicle occupants are
required to physically fasten and properly adjust
these restraints in order to benefit from them. See
the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features, use and operation of all
of the factory-installed active restraints.
PASSIVE RESTRAINTS
The passive restraints are referred to as a supple-
mental restraint system because they were designed
and are intended to enhance the protection for the
occupants of the vehicleonlywhen used in conjunc-
tion with the seat belts. They are referred to as pas-
sive restraints because the vehicle occupants are not
required to do anything to make them operate; how-
ever, the vehicle occupants must be wearing their
seat belts in order to obtain the maximum safety
benefit from the factory-installed supplemental
restraint system.
The supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits are continuously monitored and controlled by a
microprocessor and software contained within the

DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING
DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are
designed to provide information regarding the vehi-
cles wiring content. In order to effectively use the
wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important
to understand all of their features and characteris-
tics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+)
side of the circuit is placed near the top of the page,
and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near
the bottom of the page (Fig. 1).
All switches, components, and modules are shown
in the at rest position with the doors closed and the
key removed from the ignition (Fig. 2).Components are shown two ways. A solid line
around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indi-
cates that the component is being shown is not com-
plete. Incomplete components have a reference
number to indicate the page where the component is
shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made
on the diagrams to represent components and wiring
as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short
piece of wire is treated the same as a long one. In
addition, switches and other components are shown
as simply as possible, with regard to function only.
SYMBOLS
International symbols are used throughout the wir-
ing diagrams. These symbols are consistent with
those being used around the world (Fig. 3).

CAMSHAFT POSITION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) on the 5.9L
diesel engine is located below the fuel injection
pump. It is bolted to the back of the timing gear
housing.
OPERATION
The diesel Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) con-
tains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the camshaft
gear. This hall effect device detects notches located
on the back side of the camshaft gear. As the cam-
shaft gear rotates, the notches pass the tip of the
CMP.
When the leading edge of the notch passes the tip
of the CMP, the following occurs: The interruption of
magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high
resulting in a signal of approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the notch passes the tip
of the CMP, the following occurs: The change of the
magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low
to 0 volts.
The CMP (Fig. 8) provides a signal to the Engine
Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine
is running. The ECM uses the CMP information pri-
marily on engine start-up. Once the engine is run-
ning, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for
engine speed. The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)
