CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air
bag system, steering column or passenger side dash
component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON
position from passenger's side of vehicle in case of
accidental air bag inflation
AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING
WARNING: Avoid breathing R-134a refrigerant and PAG lubricant vapors,
exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. To remove
R-134a from system use R-134a recycling equipment that meets
SAE J2210 specifications. If accidental system discharge
occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.
WARNING: R-134a service equipment or vehicle A/C systems SHOULD NOT
be pressure tested or leak tested with compressed air. Some
mixtures of air/R134a have shown to be combustible at
elevated pressures. These mixtures are dangerous and may
cause fire and/or explosions. See AIR CONDITIONING SERVICE
article in GENERAL INFORMATION section.
AIR CONDITIONING MAINTENANCE
WARNING: NEVER add A/C refrigerant to correct a non-cooling problem
unless pressure gauges are connected to the system by a
certified technician. Lack of cooling may be caused by a
restriction, therefore adding refrigerant can cause a
dangerous pressure rise.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
CAUTION: The anti-lock brake system contains electronic equipment that
can be susceptible to interference caused by improperly
installed or high output radio transmitting equipment. Since
this interference could cause the possible loss of the
antilock braking capability, such equipment should be
installed by qualified professionals.
On models equipped with anti-lock brake systems, ALWAYS
observe the following cautions:
* DO NOT attempt to bleed hydraulic system without first
referring to the appropriate ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article
in the BRAKES Section.
* DO NOT mix tire sizes. As long as tires remain close to the
original diameter, increasing the width is acceptable.
Rolling diameter must be identical for all 4 tires. Some
manufacturers recommend tires of the same brand, style and
type. Failure to follow this precaution may cause inaccurate
wheel speed readings.
* Use ONLY recommended brake fluids. DO NOT use silicone brake
fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID SERVICE
WARNING: Make certain no fluid is spilled when the transaxle fluid
is inspected. Wipe up any spilled fluid completely.
AXLE FLUID
CAUTION: Axle lubricant should be changed whenever the axle has

1999 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT
CHRY - Power Mirrors
Caravan, Dakota, Durango, Ram Pickup, Ram Van, Ram Wagon,
Town & Country, & Voyager
DESCRIPTION
Outside power rear view mirrors consist of door-mounted
mirrors with internal motor drive and backing plate. On Caravan, Town
& Country, and Voyager, mirrors are controlled by a rocker switch for
left or right mirror selection and a platform button for up, down,
right and left movement. On Dakota, Durango, Ram Pickup, Ram Van and
Ram Wagon, mirrors are controlled by a single, multifunction,
joystick-type switch assembly. On all models, mirror motors are
integral with mirror assemblies and cannot be serviced separately. On
Dakota and Durango, fold-away rear view mirrors are optional.
Dakota, Durango and Ram Pickup are equipped with an automatic
dimming day/night inside mirror. The mirror uses 2 photocell sensors
to monitor ambient and rear facing light levels. The mirror
automatically adjusts its reflectance to reduce headlight glare from
vehicles approaching from the rear. The mirror is controlled by an
off/on switch located on the mirror bottom.
Caravan, Ram Pickup, Town & Country and Voyager have optional
heated outside mirrors. On Caravan, Town & Country and Voyager, heated
mirror is activated whenever the rear defogger is on. On Ram Pickup,
heated mirror is activated by switch in dash. A timer turns off mirror
heater after about 10 minutes.
COMPONENT TESTS
AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT INSIDE MIRROR
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position with transmission in
Neutral or Park. Place mirror switch in ON position (switch LED
illuminated). Cover forward facing sensor with a dark cloth or tape to
exclude any ambient light. See Fig. 1.
2) Shine a light into rear-facing sensor. Observe whether or
not mirror darkens. With mirror darkened, place transmission in
Reverse. Mirror should return to normal. If conditions of steps 1) and
2) are met, mirror is operating correctly. If conditions are not met,
go to next step.
3) Turn ignition on. Check for battery voltage at fuse No. 11
in junction block. If battery voltage exists on both sides of fuse, go
to next step. If battery voltage does not exist, repair circuit to
junction block. See WIRING DIAGRAMS. If fuse is blown, repair short
circuit and replace fuse.
4) Check for battery voltage at day/night mirror wire
connector terminal No. 1 (Dark Blue/White wire). If battery voltage
exists, go to next step. If battery voltage does not exist, repair
open circuit between mirror and junction block.
5) Check for continuity between ground and day/night mirror
wire connector terminal No. 2 (Black wire). If continuity exists, go
to next step. If continuity does not exist, repair open ground
circuit.
6) Check for battery voltage at day/night mirror wire
connector terminal No. 3 (Violet/Black wire) with transmission in
Reverse. If battery voltage exists, replace mirror. If battery voltage
does not exist, check back-up light circuit. See WIRING DIAGRAMS.

POWER MIRROR DEFOGGER
NOTE: On Caravan, Town & Country and Voyager, heated mirror is
controlled by rear window defogger switch. Heated mirror is
on whenever rear window defogger is on.
Caravan, Town & Country, & Voyager
1) Mirror should be warm to touch with rear window defogger
activated. If mirror is not warm to touch, check fuse No. 12 (10-amp)
in junction block. Repair short circuit and replace fuse as necessary.
Check for battery voltage at mirror harness connector Light
Blue/Yellow wire with rear window defogger switch on. If battery
voltage does not exist, repair wiring as necessary. See WIRING
DIAGRAMS. If battery voltage exists, go to next step.
Page 910 of 1691
2) Apply voltage to Light Blue/Yellow wire at heated mirror
and ground Black wire at heated mirror. Mirror should become warm to
touch. If mirror is not warm to touch, remove mirror and test wires
for continuity. If no continuity exists, repair wires. If wires are
okay, replace mirror. To test defogger switch, see appropriate wiring
diagram in REAR WINDOW DEFOGGERS article.
NOTE: On Ram Pickup, heated mirror is controlled by mirror defogger
switch.
Ram Pickup
1) Turn ignition on. While watching instrument panel
voltmeter, turn heated mirror switch on. Voltmeter needle should
deflect. With heated mirror on, mirror should be warm to touch after
3-4 minutes. If system operates as described, system is okay at this
time.
2) If system does not operate as described, go to next step.
Illuminated indicator light means only that voltage exists at heated
mirror relay.
3) Ensure ignition is on. Check fuses in Power Distribution
Center (PDC) and junction block. Ensure fuses are fully seated and
connections are secure. If mirrors are still inoperative, problem is
in heated mirror control, mirror heating grid and/or heated mirror
harness or connectors. If turning switch on causes a large deflection
in instrument panel voltmeter, check for a short circuit in system.
Repair as necessary.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
