INDICATORS
Indicators are located in various positions within
the EMIC and are all connected to the EMIC elec-
tronic circuit board. The cargo lamp indicator, door
ajar indicator, high beam indicator, and turn signal
indicators operate based upon hard wired inputs to
the EMIC. The brake indicator is controlled by PCI
data bus messages from the Controller Antilock
Brake (CAB) as well as by hard wired park brake
switch inputs to the EMIC. The seatbelt indicator is
controlled by the EMIC programming, PCI data bus
messages from the Airbag Control Module (ACM),
and a hard wired seat belt switch input to the EMIC.
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is normally
controlled by PCI data bus messages from the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM); however, if the EMIC
loses PCI data bus communication, the EMIC cir-
cuitry will automatically turn the MIL on until PCI
data bus communication is restored. The EMIC uses
PCI data bus messages from the Front Control Mod-
ule (FCM), the PCM, the diesel engine only Engine
Control Module (ECM), the ACM, the CAB, and the
Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) to control all
of the remaining indicators.
The various EMIC indicators are controlled by dif-
ferent strategies; some receive fused ignition switch
output from the EMIC circuitry and have a switched
ground, while others are grounded through the EMIC
circuitry and have a switched battery feed. However,
all indicators are completely controlled by the EMIC
microprocessor based upon various hard wired and
electronic message inputs. All indicators are illumi-
nated at a fixed intensity, which is not affected by
the selected illumination intensity of the EMIC gen-
eral illumination lamps.
In addition, certain indicators in this instrument
cluster are automatically configured or self-config-
ured. This feature allows the configurable indicators
to be enabled by the EMIC circuitry for compatibility
with certain optional equipment. The EMIC defaults
for the ABS indicator and airbag indicator are
enabled, and these configuration settings must be
programmatically disabled in the EMIC using a
DRBIIItscan tool for vehicles that do not have this
equipment. The automatically configured or self-con-
figured indicators remain latent in each EMIC at all
times and will be active only when the EMIC
receives the appropriate PCI message inputs for that
optional system or equipment.
The hard wired indicator inputs may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic methods. However, the
EMIC circuitry and PCI bus message controlled indi-
cators are diagnosed using the EMIC self-diagnosticactuator test. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRU-
MENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
Proper testing of the PCI data bus and the electronic
message inputs to the EMIC that control an indicator
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information. Specific details of
the operation for each indicator may be found else-
where in this service information.
CLUSTER ILLUMINATION
The EMIC has several illumination lamps that are
illuminated when the exterior lighting is turned on
with the headlamp switch. The illumination intensity
of these lamps is adjusted when the interior lighting
thumbwheel on the headlamp switch is rotated (down
to dim, up to brighten) to one of six available minor
detent positions. The EMIC monitors a resistor mul-
tiplexed input from the headlamp switch on a dim-
mer input circuit. In response to that input, the
EMIC electronic circuitry converts a 12-volt input it
receives from a fuse in the Integrated Power Module
(IPM) on a hard wired panel lamps dimmer switch
signal circuit into a 12-volt Pulse Width Modulated
(PWM) output. The EMIC uses this PWM output to
power the cluster illumination lamps and the VFD
units on the EMIC circuit board, then provides a syn-
chronized PWM output on the various hard wired
fused panel lamps dimmer switch signal circuits to
control and synchronize the illumination intensity of
other incandescent illumination lamps in the vehicle.
The cluster illumination lamps are grounded at all
times.
The EMIC also sends electronic dimming level
messages over the PCI data bus to other electronic
modules in the vehicle to control and synchronize the
illumination intensity of their VFD units to that of
the EMIC VFD units. In addition, the thumbwheel
on the headlamp switch has a Parade Mode position
to provide a parade mode. The EMIC monitors the
request for this mode from the headlamp switch,
then sends an electronic dimming level message over
the PCI data bus to illuminate all VFD units in the
vehicle at full (daytime) intensity for easier visibility
when driving in daylight with the exterior lighting
turned on.
The hard wired headlamp switch and EMIC panel
lamps dimmer inputs and outputs may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic methods. However,
proper testing of the PWM output of the EMIC and
the electronic dimming level messages sent by the
EMIC over the PCI data bus requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR
DESCRIPTION
The exterior lighting system for this model include
the following components:
²Backup Lamps
²Brake Lamps
²Daytime Running Lamps
²Front Fog Lamps
²Hazard Warning Lamps
²Headlamps
²Park Lamps
²Turn Signal Lamps
Other components of the exterior lighting system
for this model include:
²Backup Lamp Switch
²Brake Lamp Switch
²Front Control Module

²Multi-Function Switch
²Park Lamp Relay
²Trailer Tow Connectors
Some of the interior and exterior lighting functions
are governed by the front control module. The head-
lamp, dome, and door ajar switchs provide signals to
the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster sends
a J1850 message to the front control module to
enable the necessary components for illumination.Hard wired circuitry connects the exterior lighting
system components to the electrical system of the
vehicle. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.OPERATION
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
Power is reduced using pulse-width modulation to
the high beams, where by the power is switched on
and off rapidly instead of remaining on continuously.
The duration and interval of the power pulses is pro-
grammed into the Front Control Module (FCM).
HEADLAMP SYSTEM
The instrument cluster monitors both the multi-
plexed headlamp and multifunction switches. The
instrument cluster transmits a J1850 bus message to
the front control module (FCM) to activate the head-
lamps. The headlamp system will default to head-
lamps ON position when ignition switch is ON and
when an open or short circuit failure occurs on the
headlamp switch input to the instrument cluster. The
system will return to normal operation when the
open or short is repaired. A fault will be reported by
the Instrument Cluster when a failure occurs on the
dimmer or headlamp switch input.
If the exterior lamps are ON, and the headlamp
switch is in any position other than OFF, with the
ignition switch OFF (LOCK) after 5 minutes, the

READING LAMP
DESCRIPTION
The overhead console in this vehicle is equipped
with two individual reading and courtesy lamps. The
lamp lenses are the only visible components of these
lamps. Each lamp has its own switch, bulb, reflector
and lens within the overhead console.
The overhead console reading and courtesy lamps
are controlled by the instrument cluster which pro-
vides power at all times, regardless of the ignition
switch position. The ground circuit for the lamps is
switched through the integral reading and courtesy
lamp switches or through the door ajar switches.
Each lamp is designed and aimed to provide illumi-
nation that will be directed only to that side of the
vehicle on which the lamp is located.
The reading and courtesy lamp lenses and bulbs
are available for service replacement. The reading
and courtesy lamp switches, bulb holders and wiring
are only available as part of the overhead console
wire harness. If either of the lamp switches or bulb
holders is faulty or damaged, the entire overhead
console wire harness assembly must be replaced.
For service of the reading and courtesy lamp bulbs,
refer to the appropriate wiring information.
OPERATION
All reading and courtesy lamps located in the over-
head console are activated by the door ajar switches
via the instrument cluster. When all of the doors are
closed, these lamps can be individually activated by
depressing the corresponding lens. When any door is
open, depressing the lamp lenses to activate the lamp
switches will not turn the lamps off.The instrument cluster monitors the door ajar
switches. When a door is open the instrument cluster
grounds the low side drivers to turn on the lamps.
Upon closing all doors, the instrument cluster ini-
tiates a 30 second timer. If any of the doors are
opened during the ªtime outº cycle, the instrument
cluster will reset the timer until all doors are closed.
