UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
On some RS models a Homelinkttransceiver is
standard factory-installed equipment. The Homelinkt
transceiver is integral to the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) and the Compass Mini-Trip
Computer (CMTC), which is located in the overhead
console. The only visible component of the Homelinkt
are the three transmitter push buttons centered
between the modules push buttons located just rear-
ward of the display screen in the overhead console.
The three Homelinkttransmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified by sight or by feel.
Each of the three Homelinkttransmitter push but-
tons controls an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained to
transmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-
tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The Homelinktis capable of operating systems
using either rolling code or non-rolling code technol-
ogy.
The electronics module displays messages and a
small house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots
corresponding to the three transmitter buttons to
indicate the status of the Homelinkt. The EVIC mes-
sages are:
²Cleared Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the Homelinkthave been
successfully cleared.
²Training- Indicates that the Homelinktis in
its transmitter learning mode.
²Trained- Indicates that the Homelinkthas
successfully acquired a new transmitter code.
²Transmit- Indicates that a trained Homelinkt
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
Homelinktis transmitting.
The Homelinktcannot be repaired, and is avail-
able for service only as a unit with the EVIC or
CMTC modules. If any of these components is faulty
or damaged, the complete EVIC or CMTC module
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The Homelinktoperates on a non-switched source
of battery current so the unit will remain functional,
regardless of the ignition switch position. For more
information on the features, programming procedures
and operation of the Homelinkt, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box.

(6) Verify power liftgate system and full open
switch operation. Cycle the power liftgate through
one complete open and close cycle, this will allow the
power liftgate control module to relearn its cycle with
the new components.
LIFTGATE MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power liftgate, utilize a
liftgate gear motor assembly (Fig. 6). The gear motor
assembly consists of a DC motor, hall effect sensor,
engage actuator, full open switch, lift gear, aluminum
housing, drive gears and wire harness. The gears and
motor portion of the assembly provides the power
and torque required to open or close the liftgate
under the worst case conditions. The hall effect sen-
sor is used to provide the liftgate control module with
a speed reading, which is used to monitor the resis-
tance of liftgate travel. This speed reading also
allows the power liftgate control module to detect
obstructions and move the liftgate accordingly. The
engage actuator is used to toggle between power
open/close mode and full manual mode when desired.
The full open switch is used to let the power liftgate
control module know when the liftgate is approach-
ing the full open position.Serviceable components of the power liftgate gear
motor assembly are the complete gear motor assem-
bly, motor and wire harness, lift gear and control rod,
engage actuator, full open switch and the transverse
bracket. Refer to additional information in this group
for more component details.
OPERATION
With the push of a power liftgate command switch
(liftgate closed), the power liftgate control module
will signal the latch assembly to release the door
from its primary closed and latched position to the
released and movable position. The liftgate motor
mounted, engage actuator then engages the liftgate
motor assembly, which moves the liftgate into the
open position. The liftgate motor provides the torque
and power to move the door to its full open or closed
position(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER DOORS -
OPERATION) for additional information.
REMOVAL
The power liftgate motor can be serviced in two
different ways. The first of which is called out here,
the complete gear motor assembly. The second way
includes the motor, aluminum housing, drive gears
and wire harness assembly. To perform this service
procedure, use the following procedure to remove the
gear motor assembly from the vehicle. Then refer to
the other procedures called out this section to trans-
fer the remaining components (engage actuator, full
open switch, transverse bracket and lift gear and
rod) to the replacement motor assembly.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the left rear D-pillar trim panel from
the vehicle. Refer to the Body section for the proce-
dure.
(3) Disconnect the wire harness connector from the
motor assembly (Fig. 6).
(4) Remove the two bolts from the motor housing
and the one bolt from the transverse mount bracket.
(5) Grab the liftgate motor assembly and lift
upward and out to unhook the motor assembly from
the D-pillar.
(6) Remove the liftgate motor assembly from the
vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Using the motor housing tab, hook the liftgate
motor assembly on the D-pillar.
(2) Install the three motor assembly retaining
bolts. Torque the two rear most bolts first to 9.5 N´m
(85 in. lbs.). Torque the remaining bolt next to the
window actuator to 9.5 N´m (85 in. lbs.).

LATCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power liftgate, utilize a
power cinch/release latch. This latch performs the
same features as a manual liftgate latch as well as
the power cinch and / or release capability. A second
type of power latch can also be found on some RS
models, this latch is designed to perform a power
release only. The power cinch and release capability
is accomplished by an actuator mounted to the lead-
ing edge of the latch assembly. The latch is located in
the lower center of the liftgate assembly (Fig. 12) and
contains integral pawl and ratchet switches. The
ratchet switch acts as a liftgate ajar switch.
The power latch assembly can be serviced as a
complete assembly, latch without actuator or just the
actuator. Consult your Mopar parts catalog for spe-
cific part numbers.
OPERATION
On the power cinch/release latch, the latch
mounted actuator provides the torque required to
close the power liftgate from the secondary to the pri-
mary closed and latched position. On the power
cinch/release latch and the power release only latch,
the actuator releases the liftgate from the primary
closed and latched position to the fully unlatched and
movable position.
REMOVAL
(1) Open the hood, disconnect and isolate the neg-
ative battery cable.
(2) Open the liftgate and remove the liftgate trim
panel. Refer to Body for the procedure.
(3) Disconnect the power latch electrical connector
(Fig. 12).
(4) Remove the power latch retaining bolts.
(5) Disconnect the liftgate lock cylinder link rod
from the key cylinder or latch assembly. To discon-
nect from latch, rotate the plastic retaining clip 90 É
to unsnap clip from linkrod. Then pull link rod
straight out of latch arm.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect the liftgate lock cylinder link rod on
the cinch latch assembly. Rotate the plastic retaining
clip 90 É to lock retaining clip on linkrod.
(2) Connect the link rod on the lock cylinder.
(3) Install the power latch retaining bolts. Torque
to 10 N´m (90 in. lbs.).
(4) Connect the power latch electrical connector
and secure push pin retainers.
(5) Connect the negative battery cable.
(6) Using an appropriate scan tool, check and
erase any power liftgate control module diagnostic
trouble codes related to the power latch.
(7) Verify power liftgate system and power cinch /
release latch operation. Cycle the power liftgate
through one complete open and close cycle, this will
allow the power liftgate control module to relearn its
cycle with the new components.
(8) Verify power liftgate manual operation. Using
liftgate key rotate the lock cylinder to verify door
operation. Pull door open using exterior liftgate han-
dle / switch.

POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM (Continued)

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
The key fob transmitter (Fig. 1) has six buttons.
Three of them, LOCK, UNLOCK, and PANIC, are used
to actuate parts of, and program the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system via the customer programming
mode. It is not necessary to use the PANIC button with
the DRB IIItscan tool mode of programming.
OPERATION
POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks the
doors when an actuation input signal from a door lock
switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE) is
received. The BCM turns on the output drivers and pro-
vides a voltage level to the door lock motor for a speci-
fied time. The BCM locks the doors and liftgate
automatically when the vehicle is driven beyond the
speed of 25.7 Km/h (15 mph). The rolling door lock fea-
ture can be disabled if desired. All doors and liftgate
can be locked or unlocked using mechanical button or
key cylinder methods (Liftgate cylinder does not lock/
unlock vehicle. It only unlocks the liftgate).
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
The BCM is equipped with a disable feature to
stop the speed sensitive automatic door locks from
functioning. The DISABLE feature can be switchedON or OFF as desired. When the system is DIS-
ABLED the door locks will operate normally, but will
not lock automatically when the vehicle is rolling.
When the door locks are ENABLED the door locks
will automatically lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (15 mph). All doors are closed, the
PCM has set the ªOK TO LOCKº bit, and doors were
not previously locked.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, all power door lock function-
ing shall be disabled when activating either door lock
switch. Pressing the RKE lock/unlock button under
these conditions will result in a normal lock/unlock
activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
CENTRAL LOCKING
If equipped with Vehicle Theft Security System
(VTSS), all the doors can be locked with the key by
using any of the door lock cylinders. Turning the key
to the lock position will lock all the doors. If a sliding
door is open when this is done, the sliding door will
lock when it is closed.
Holding the key in the unlock position, in any door
lock cylinder, for less than one second will unlock the
individual door for that lock cylinder. If the key is
held in the unlock position for more than one second,
all the doors will unlock.
To central unlock all doors, a second transition
from OFF to UNLOCK has to occur within 2 seconds
of the first complete UNLOCK cycle.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock output drivers. If
the door lock switch is actuated continuously for
more than one second the BCM will turn the output
driver OFF (the BCM would consider the switch
stuck). The lock motors are protected with Positive
Temperature Coefficient (PTC) device that prevents
motor burn out.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
²LOCK: Pressing the LOCK button locks all
doors and sounds horn (chirp) and arm the Vehicle
Theft Security System. The chirp verifies that the
RKE receiver has sent a message to the BCM for
door lock operation. If a door has not been closed
before pressing the LOCK button, the vehicle may
not be secured and the VTSS will not arm until the
door is closed.

horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s)
(VAC) in its memory even after vehicle power has
been interrupted.
NOTE: Additional features available to the customer
are described in the Vehicle Owners Manual.
The RKE system activates the optional memory
seat and mirror system, if equipped. Two primary
key fob transmitters can be programmed to actuate
memory seat and mirror setting 1 or 2. Two addi-
tional key fob transmitters can be added, but they
will not be able to operate the memory seat and mir-
ror system (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS - OPERATION) and (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER MIRRORS - OPERATION).
DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
MOTOR
Verify battery condition before testing door lock
motor(s) (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYS-
TEM/BATTERY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
To determine which motor is faulty, check each
individual door for electrical lock and unlock or dis-
connect the motor connectors one at a time, while
operating the door lock switch. In the event that
none of the motors work, the problem may be caused
by a shorted motor or a bad switch. Disconnecting
the defective motor will allow the others to work.
To test an individual door lock motor, disconnect
the electrical connector from the motor. To lock the
door, connect a 12 volt power source to the positivepin of the lock motor and a ground wire to the other
pin. 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds. To unlock the
door reverse the wire connections at the motor pin
terminals. If these results are NOT obtained, replace
the motor.
