1.0 INTRODUCTION
The procedures contained in this manual include
specifications, instructions, and graphics needed to
diagnose the PCM Powertrain System. The diag-
nostics in this manual are based on the failure
condition or symptom being present at time of
diagnosis.
Please follow the recommendations below when
choosing your diagnostic path.
1. First make sure the DRBIIItis communicating
with the appropriate modules; ie., if the DRBIIIt
displays a ``No Response'' condition, you must
diagnose this first before proceeding.
2. Read DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) with the
DRBIIIt.
3. If no DTC's are present, identify the customer
complaint.
4. Once the DTC or customer complaint is identi-
fied, locate the matching test in the Table of
Contents and begin to diagnose the symptom.
All component location views are in Section 8.0.
All connector pinouts are in Section 9.0. All system
schematics are in Section 10.0.
An * placed before the symptom description indi-
cates a customer complaint.
When repairs are required, refer to the appropri-
ate service manual for the proper removal and
repair procedure.
Diagnostic procedures change every year. New
diagnostic systems may be added; carryover sys-
tems may be enhanced. READ THIS MANUAL
BEFORE TRYING TO DIAGNOSE A VEHICLE
CODE. It is recommended that you review the
entire manual to become familiar with all new and
changed diagnostic procedures.
After using this book, if you have any comments
or recommendations, please fill out the form at the
back of the book and mail it back to us.
1.1 SYSTEM COVERAGE
This diagnostic procedures manual covers the
following 2000 Chrysler Caravan Voyager vehicles
equipped with the 2.0L, 2.4L DOHC, 3.0L MPI,
3.3L/3.8L MPI, or 3.3L E85 compatible Engine.
1.2 SIX-STEP TROUBLESHOOTING
PROCEDURE
Diagnosis of the powertrain control module
(PCM) is done in six basic steps:
²verification of complaint
²verification of any related symptoms
²symptom analysis
²problem isolation
²repair of isolated problem
²verification of proper operation
2.0 IDENTIFICATION OF
SYSTEM
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors
and controls:
²Fuel system
²Ignition system
²charging system
²speed control system
²cooling system
3.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
These Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI) engine sys-
tems have the latest in technical advances. The
on-board Euro Stage III On-Board Diagnostic incor-
porated with the powertrain control module (PCM)
are intended to assist the field technician in repair-
ing vehicle problems by the quickest means.
3.2 FUNCTION OPERATION
3.2.1 FUEL CONTROL
The PCM controls the air/fuel ratio of the engine
by varying fuel injector on time. Mass air flow is
calculated using the speed density method using
engine speed, manifold absolute pressure, and air
temperature change.
Different fuel calculation strategies are used de-
pendent on the operational state of the engine.
During crank mode, a prime shot fuel pulse is
delivered followed by fuel pulses determined by a
crank time strategy. Cold engine operation is deter-
mined via an open loop strategy until the O2
sensors have reached operating temperature. At
this point, the strategy enters a closed loop mode
where fuel requirements are based upon the state of
the O2 sensors, engine speed, MAP, throttle posi-
tion, air temperature, battery voltage, and coolant
temperature.

3.2.3 OTHER CONTROLS
CHARGING SYSTEM
The charging system is turned on when the
engine is started and ASD relay energized. When
the ASD relay is on, ASD output voltage is supplied
to the ASD sense circuit at the PCM. This voltage is
connected in some cases, through the PCM and
supplied to one of the generator field terminals
(Gen Source +). All others, the Gen field is con-
nected directly to the ASD output voltage. The
amount of current produced by the generator is
controlled by the Electronic Voltage Regulator
(EVR) circuitry, in the PCM. A battery temperature
sensor, located either in the battery tray, using the
ambient sensor, or in the PCM itself, is used to
sense battery temperature. This temperature along
with sensed line voltage, is used by the PCM to vary
the battery charging rate. This is done by cycling
the ground path to the other generator field termi-
nal (Gen field driver).
SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM
The PCM controls vehicle speed by operation of
the speed control servo vacuum and vent solenoids.
Energizing the vacuum solenoid applies vacuum to
the servo to increase throttle position. Operation of
the vent solenoid slowly releases the vacuum allow-
ing throttle position to decrease. A special dump
solenoid allows immediate release of throttle posi-
tion caused by braking, cruise control switch turned
off, shifting into neutral, excessive RPM (tires spin-
ning) or ignition key off.
3.2.4 PCM OPERATING MODES
As input signals to the powertrain control module
(PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to
output devices. For example, the PCM must calcu-
late a different injector pulse width and ignition
timing for idle than it does for wide open throttle.
There are several different modes of operation that
determine how the PCM responds to the various
input signals.
There are two types of engine control operation:
open loopandclosed loop.
In open loop operation, the PCM receives input
signals and responds according to preset program-
ming. Inputs from the heated oxygen sensors are
not monitored.
In closed loop operation, the PCM monitors the
inputs from the heated oxygen sensors. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated
injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio of 14.7 parts air to 1 part fuel. By monitoring
the exhaust oxygen content through the oxygen
sensor, the PCM can fine tune injector pulse width.
Fine tuning injector pulse width allows the PCM toachieve the lowest emission levels while maintain-
ing optimum fuel economy.
The engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up,
and wide open throttle modes are open loop modes.
Under most operating conditions, closed loop modes
occur with the engine at operating temperature.
IGNITION SWITCH ON (ENGINE OFF) MODE
When the ignition switch activates the fuel injec-
tion system, the following actions occur:
1. The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure
from the MAP sensor input to determine basic
fuel strategy.
2. The PCM monitors the engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor and throttle position sensor input.
The PCM modifies fuel strategy based on this
input.
When the key is in the ªonº position and the
engine is not running (zero rpm), the auto shut-
down relay and fuel pump relay are not energized.
Therefore, voltage is not supplied to the fuel pump,
ignition coil, and fuel injectors.
Engine Start-up Mode -This is an open loop
mode. The following actions occur when the starter
motor is engaged:
1. The auto shutdown and fuel pump relays are
energized. If the PCM does not receive the cam-
shaft and crankshaft signal within approxi-
mately one second, these relays are de-
energized.
2. The PCM energizes all fuel injectors until it
determines crankshaft position from the cam-
shaft and crankshaft signals. The PCM deter-
mines crankshaft position within one engine
revolution. After the crankshaft position has
been determined, the PCM energizes the fuel
injectors in sequence. The PCM adjusts the in-
jector pulse width and synchronizes the fuel
injectors by controlling the fuel injectors' ground
paths.
3. Once the engine idles within 64 rpm of its target
engine speed, the PCM compares the current
MAP sensor value with the value received dur-
ing the ignition switch on (zero rpm) mode. A
diagnostic trouble code is written to PCM mem-
ory if a minimum difference between the two
values is not found.
Once the auto shutdown and fuel pump relays
have been energized, the PCM determines the fuel
injector pulse width based on the following:
± engine coolant temperature
± manifold absolute pressure
± intake air temperature
± engine revolutions
± throttle position

3.3 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Each diagnostic trouble code is diagnosed by
following a specific testing procedure. The diagnos-
tic test procedures contain step-by-step instructions
for determining the cause of trouble codes as well as
no trouble code problems. It is not necessary to
perform all of the tests in this book to diagnose an
individual code.
Always begin by reading the diagnostic trouble
codes using the DRBIIIt.
3.3.1 HARD CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that comes back within
one cycle of the ignition key is a ªhardº code. This
means that the defect is there every time the
powertrain control module checks that circuit or
function. Procedures in this manual verify if the
trouble code is a hard code at a the beginning of
each test. When it is not a hard code, an ªintermit-
tentº test must be performed.
Codes that are for Euro Stage III OBD monitors will
not set with just the ignition key on. Comparing these
7
GENERAL INFORMATION
ProCarManuals.com

to non-emission codes, they will seem like an intermit-
tent. These codes require a set of parameters to be
performed (The DRBIIItpre-test screens will help
with this for MONITOR codes), this is called a ªTRIPº.
All EURO STAGE III OBD DTCs will be set after one
or in some cases two trip failures, and the MIL will be
turned on. These codes require three successful (no
failures) TRIPS to extinguish the MIL, followed by 40
warm-up cycles to erase the code.
3.3.2 INTERMITTENT CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every
time the PCM checks the circuit is an ªintermittentº
code. Most intermittent codes are caused by wiring
or connector problems. Defects that come and go
like this are the most difficult to diagnose; they
must be looked for under specific conditions that
cause them. The following checks may assist you in
identifying a possible intermittent problem:
²Visually inspect related wire harness connectors.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded
terminals.
²Visually inspect the related harnesses. Look for
chafed, pierced, or partially broken wire.
²Refer to any Hotline Newsletters or technical
service bulletins that may apply.
²Use the DRBIIItdata recorder or co-pilot.
²Use the DRBIIItPEP module lab scope.
3.3.3 RESET COUNTER
The reset counter counts the number of times the
vehicle has been started since codes were last set,
erased, or the battery was disconnected. The reset
counter will count up to 255 start counts.
The number of starts helps determine when the
trouble code actually happened. This is recorded by
the PCM and can be viewed on the DRBIIItas
STARTS since set.
When there are no trouble codes stored in mem-
ory, the DRBIIItwill display ªNO DTC'S Detectedº
and the reset counter will show ªSTARTS since
clear = XXX.º
3.3.4 HANDLING NO TROUBLE CODE
PROBLEMS
Symptom checks cannot be used properly unless
the driveability problem characteristic actually
happens while the vehicle is being tested.
Select the symptom that most accurately de-
scribes the vehicle's driveability problem and then
perform the test routine that pertains to this symp-
tom. Perform each routine test in sequence until the
problem is found. For definitions, see Section 6.0

3.5.1 DRB IIITDOES NOT POWER UP
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at
start up, check for loose cable connections or a bad
cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage (data link
connector cavity 16). A minimum of 11 volts is
required to adequately power the DRBIIIt.
If all connections are proper between the
DRBIIItand vehicle or other devices, and the
vehicle battery is fully charged, an inoperative
DRBIIItmay be the result of a faulty cable or
vehicle wiring. For a blank screen, refer to the
appropriate body diagnostics manual.
3.5.2 DISPLAY IS NOT VISIBLE
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the
display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this
condition.

DRB MULTIMETER IS DANGEROUS. IT CAN
EXPOSE YOU TO SERIOUS INJURY.
CAREFULLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THE
CAUTIONS AND THE SPECIFICATION
LIMITS.
Follow the vehicle manufacturer 's service specifi-
cations at all times.
²Do not use the DRBIIItif it has been damaged.
²Do not use the test leads if the insulation is
damaged or if metal is exposed.
²To avoid electrical shock, do not touch the test
leads, tips or the circuit being tested.
²Choose the proper range and function for the
measurement. Do not try voltage or current mea-
surements that may exceed the rated capacity.
²Do not exceed the limits shown in the table below:
FUNCTION INPUT LIMIT
Volts 0 - 500 peak volts AC
0 - 500 volts DC
Ohms (resistance)* 0 -1.12 megohms
Frequency Measured
Frequency Generated0-10kHz

* Ohms cannot be measured if voltage is present.
Ohms can be measured only in a non-powered
circuit.
²Voltage between any terminal and ground must
not exceed 500v DC or 500v peak AC.
²Use caution when measuring voltage above 25v
DC or 25v AC.
²The circuit being tested must be protected by a
10A fuse or circuit breaker.
²Use the low current shunt to measure circuits up
to 10A. Use the high current clamp to measure
circuits exceeding 10A.
²When testing for the presence of voltage or cur-
rent, make sure the meter is functioning cor-
rectly. Take a reading of a known voltage or
current before accepting a zero reading.
²When measuring current, connect the meter in
series with the load.
²Disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting
the common test lead.
²When using the meter function, keep the DRB
away from spark plug or coil wires to avoid
measuring error from outside interference.
4.3 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
4.3.1 ROAD TEST WARNINGS
Some complaints will require a test drive as part
of the repair verification procedure. The purpose of
the test drive is to try to duplicate the diagnostic
code or symptom condition.
CAUTION: BEFORE ROAD TESTING A
VEHICLE, BE SURE THAT ALL
COMPONENTS ARE REASSEMBLED.
DURING THE TEST DRIVE, DO NOT TRY TO
READ THE DRB SCREEN WHILE IN MOTION.
DO NOT HANG THE DRB FROM THE REAR
VIEW MIRROR OR OPERATE IT YOURSELF.
HAVE AN ASSISTANT AVAILABLE TO
OPERATE THE DRB.
4.3.2 VEHICLE DAMAGE CAUTIONS
Before disconnecting any control module, make
sure the ignition is ªoffº. Failure to do so could
damage the module.
When testing voltage or continuity at any control
module, use the terminal side (not the wire end) of
the connector. Do not probe a wire through the
insulation; this will damage it and eventually cause
it to fail because of corrosion.
Be careful when performing electrical tests so as
to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such
mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a
second code could be set, making diagnosis of the
original problem more difficult.
