REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
When trouble shooting problems with the Remote
Keyless Entry System, always verify that the power
door lock/unlock switches are functional. If the doors
do not lock/unlock refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
gram for Pin and wiring locations.
If the following items do not work:
²Remote keyless entry system
²Radio/clock
²Door lock switches
A blown fuse is the probable cause. Check fuses 2,
3 and 11 in the fuse block. To check for a blown fuse,
pull the fuse out slightly, but maintain contact
between the fuse terminals and the terminals in fuse
block. Using the voltmeter probe, check both termi-
nals for 12 volts. If only one terminal measures bat-
tery voltage, the circuit breaker is defective and must
be replaced. If neither terminal measures battery
voltage, check the high current fuses 3 and 11 in the
Power Distribution Center (PDC). The PDC is located
in the engine compartment. If fuse(s) are NOT OK,
replace fuse(s) or repair as necessary. If fuses are
OK, check for an open or shorted circuit to the Power
Distribution Center, repair as needed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
The Immobilizer system includes the following
unique items:
²An immobilizer module receiver that controls
system operation and also controls the RKE and Illu-
minated entry systems, if equipped.
²An encoded Crankshaft Position Sensor for the
ignition system. The Immobilizer module decodes the
signal from the crankshaft so the PCM can recognize
it as a valid Crankshaft Position Sensor signal, and
allow the engine to run.
²A wiring harness that interconnects the crank-
shaft sensor, the immobilizer receiver, and the PCM.
²Two key fob transmitters.
The Immobilizer System prevents unauthorized
operation of the vehicle by disabling the engine and
starter. The system will NOT allow the vehicle to
start unless the UNLOCK button on the RKE trans-
mitter is pressed. The system will be activated after
turning the ignition switch to the OFF position and
using one of the following methods.
(1) Press the LOCK button on the RKE transmit-
ter.
(2) LOCK the doors by pressing a power lock but-
ton switch.
(3) LOCK the driver or passenger door using the
key.
²The Security light will flash, for about 16 sec-
onds, indicating that the engine and starter will be
disabled.
²The Security light remaining on, indicates the
system is not operational.
²The Immobilizer will activate automatically
within 10 minutes of the ignition switch being in the
OFF position, whether the vehicle has been locked or
unlocked.²An attempt to start the vehicle without pressing
the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter will
result in a warning chime and the Security light
flashing.
NOTE: The ignition switch must be in the OFF posi-
tion in order for the system to be activated, whether
the doors are closed or not.
IMMOBILIZER RECEIVER
The immobilizer receiver is programmed to
respond to the Lock and Unlock radio signals issued
by the immobilizer transmitters. The receiver will
only respond to the radio signals of transmitters (up
to four) whose vehicle access codes have been stored
in the receiver's electronic memory. The receiver is
programmed at the assembly plant with the vehicle
access codes of the two transmitters that are shipped
with the vehicle.
The immobilizer receiver also has a central pro-
cessing unit, which contains the immobilizer system
logic. The programming in the immobilizer receiver
allows the system to learn and retain transmitter
vehicle access codes, as well as to communicate with
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and/or the
DRB scan tool on the Chrysler Collision Detection
(CCD) data bus network.
The CCD data bus network allows the sharing of
sensor information. This helps to reduce wiring har-
ness complexity, reduce internal controller hardware,
and reduce component sensor current loads. At the
same time, the CCD data bus network provides
increased reliability and enhanced diagnostic capabil-
ities.
Each immobilizer transmitter has a different vehi-
cle access code, which must be programmed into the
memory of the immobilizer receiver in the vehicle in
order to operate the immobilizer system. A DRB scan
tool must be used to program new or additional

NOTE: The following tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
Vehicle Immobilizer System involves the use of a
DRB scan tool. Refer to the Vehicle Theft Security
System menu item on the DRB scan tool for the
procedures.
The vehicle immobilizer system and the Chrysler
Collision Detection (CCD) data bus network should
be diagnosed using the DRB scan tool. The DRB will
allow confirmation that the CCD data bus is func-
tional, that the immobilizer receiver is placing the
proper messages on the CCD data bus, and that the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is receiving the
CCD data bus messages. Refer to the Vehicle Theft
Security System menu item on the DRB scan tool for
the procedures. Refer to 8W-39 - Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for com-
plete circuit descriptions and diagrams.
(1) With the ignition switch in the Off position,
depress the Lock or Unlock button of the immobilizer
transmitter. Listen for the immobilizer receiver to
issue an audible chirp (Unlock) or chirps (Lock). If
OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the transmitter
batteries with known good units and repeat Step 1. If
still not OK, go to Step 2.
(2) Check the fuse in the Power Distribution Cen-
ter (PDC). If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the
shorted circuit or component as required and replace
the faulty fuse.
(3) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Unplug the wire harness connector at the
immobilizer receiver. Check for continuity between
the ground circuit cavity of the immobilizer receiver
wire harness connector and a good ground. There
should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK,
repair the open circuit to ground as required.
(4) Connect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
immobilizer receiver wire harness connector. If OK,
refer to the Vehicle Theft Security System menu itemon the DRB scan tool for further diagnosis. If not
OK, repair the open circuit to the PDC fuse as
required.REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

INTRODUCTION
The window lift motors are of the permanent mag-
net type. A battery positive and negative connection
to either of the two motor terminals will cause the
motor to rotate in one direction. Reversing current
through these same two connections will cause the
motor to rotate in the opposite direction.
Each individual motor is grounded through the
master switch.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
WIRING TEST
The following wiring test determines whether or
not voltage is continuous through the body harness
to switch.
Remove switch for testing. Connect a voltmeter
positive lead to Pin 4 and negative lead to Pin 3 of
the switch connector (Fig. 1). Turn ignition switch to
the ON position. Voltmeter should read battery volt-
age. If OK, go to Window Switch Test. If not OK,
check the 30 amp circuit breaker behind the fuse
block or for a broken wire. For wiring, specific con-
nector type and location, refer to Group 8W, Wiring
Diagrams.
WINDOW SWITCH TEST
Remove the switch from its mounting, refer to the
Window Switch Removal and Installation proce-
dures.. Using an ohmmeter, refer to the test proce-
dures below, Driver Side or Passenger Side Window
Switch Continuity Test to determine if continuity is
correct (Fig. 2) and (Fig. 3). If the results are not
obtained, replace the switch.

Body for removal procedures.(2) Connect positive (+) lead from a test battery to
either of the two motor terminals.
(3) Connect negative (-) lead from test battery to
remaining motor terminal.
(4) The motor should now rotate in one direction to
either move window up or down.
(a) If window happens to already be in full UP
position and motor is connected so as to move it in
UP direction no movement will be observed.
(b) Likewise, motor connected to move window
in DOWN direction no movement will be observed
if window is already in full DOWN position.
(c) Reverse battery leads in Step 2 and Step 3
and window should now move. If window does not
move, remove motor. See below for motor removal
from vehicle.
(5) If window moved completely up or down, the
test leads should be reversed one more time to com-
plete a full window travel inspection.
(6) If window does not move, check to make sure
that it is free.
