2001 CHRYSLER VOYAGER ECU

On vehicles equipped with AutoStick, the display
includes an O/D OFF indicator that is illuminated
when the driver presses the Overdrive Off button
on the transaxle shifter.
3.11.1 INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SELF TEST
1. Depress and hold the Odometer Reset button.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN/START
position.
3. Release the Odometer reset button.
The Instrument Cluster will illuminate all indi-
cators and step the gauges through several calibra-
tion points. Also, the odometer will display any
stored codes that may have set.
3.11.2 MESSAGE CENTER
The Message Center is located above the brow of
the Instrument Cluster. It houses the following
warning indicators: Check Engine/Service Engine
Soon, high beam, left and right turn signals, Secu-
rity Alarm Set, and low oil pressure. On base
models equipped with the three-speed transaxle,
these indicators appear in the face of the cluster.
The Security Alarm set indicator is a red circle.
Activation of Instrument Cluster indicators is
coordinated with indicators in the message center
and EVIC to avoid redundancy. A revised safety
standard now requires that the seat belt warning
lamp in the Instrument Cluster remain lit if the
driver seat belt is not buckled. A headlamp out ISO
indicator has been added to the Instrument Cluster
to alert the driver when a headlamp is not function-
ing.
3.12 INTERIOR LIGHTING
3.12.1 COURTESY LAMP CONTROL
The body controller has direct control over all of
the vehicle's courtesy lamps. The body computer
will illuminate the courtesy lamps under any of the
following conditions:
1. Any door ajar and courtesy lamp switch on the
headlamp switch is not in the dome off position.
2. The courtesy lamp switch on the headlamp
switch is in the dome on position.
3. A Remote Keyless Entry unlock message is re-
ceived.
4. Driver door unlocked with key (with VTSS only).
3.12.2 ILLUMINATED ENTRY
Illuminated entry will be initiated when the cus-
tomer enters the vehicle by unlocking the doors
with the key fob, or with the key if the vehicle is
equipped with vehicle theft alarm. Upon exiting thevehicle, if the lock button is pressed with a door
open, illuminated entry will cancel when the door
closes. If the doors are closed and the ignition
switch is turned on, the illuminated entry also
cancels. The illuminated entry feature will not
operate if the courtesy lamp switch is in the dome
off position.
3.12.3 INTERIOR LIGHTING BATTERY
SAVER
If any of the interior lamps are left on after the
ignition is turned off, the BCM will turn them off
after 8 minutes. To return to normal operation, the
courtesy lamps will operate after the dome lamp
switch or door ajar switch changes state. The glove
box and switched reading lamps require that the
ignition be turned to the on/acc position.
3.13 MEMORY SYSTEM
The memory system consists of power driver 's
seat, power mirrors and radio presets. The Memory
Seat/Mirror Module (MSMM) is located under the
driver 's seat. It receives input from the following:
driver 's manual 8-way seat switch, driver 's seat
position sensors, PCI bus circuits, and the power
mirror sensors. The module uses these inputs to
perform the following functions: position the driv-
er 's memory seat, both exterior mirrors (during
recalls), and send/receive the memory system infor-
mation over the PCI bus.
The Memory Set Switch is wired to the Body
Control Module (BCM). When a button (either #1 or
#2) is pressed on the set switch causes the to BCM
send a message to the MSMM which in turn sends
a motion status messages to the BCM. If the BCM
receives no motion from the MSMM it will send a
recall message to the MSMM and radio (once igni-
tion is in run or accessory). The MSMM will in turn
position the drivers seat, both mirrors along with
recalling the radio presets. If the drivers seat or
either exterior mirror is inoperative from its own
respective switches, use the service information
and schematic to diagnose the problem. This man-
ual addresses the memory problems only and it is
assumed there is not a basic component failure.
3.13.1 POWER SEAT
The memory power seat provides the driver with
2 position settings for the driver 's seat. Each power
seat motor is connected to the MSMM with two
motor drive circuits. Each circuit is switched be-
tween battery and ground. By being able to bi-
directionally drive the circuits, the MSMM controls
the movement of the motors based on input from
the power seat switch or from the position sensors
when performing a memory recall. Each motor

seconds instead of 5, the CMTC will set the
variance to 8 and enter the fast calibration
mode.
3. The VAR light will come on and the last variance
setting will be displayed.
4. Press the STEP button to set the zone number.
5. Press the US/M button and resume normal op-
eration.
NOTE: Do not attach any magnetic device
such as a magnetic CB antenna to the
vehicle. This can cause the compass to give
false readings.
3.15 POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
When the BCM receives input for a lock request
from a door lock switch, RKE or cylinder lock switch
(only with VTSS), it will turn the lock driver on for
a specified time of 375 msec. If the request is there
beyond 375 msec, the BCM considers the door lock
signal stuck. Once a door lock or unlock signal is
stuck for longer than 10 seconds, the BCM will set
a trouble code and the signal input is ignored until
the stuck condition disappears. The door lock
switches provide a variable amount of resistance
thereby dropping the voltage of the multiplexed
(MUX) circuit and the BCM will respond to that
command.
3.15.1 SLIDING DOOR MEMORY LOCK
When the BCM receives an input for a lock
request and a sliding door is open, the BCM will
turn on the lock driver as described above, and will
turn it on again when all sliding doors are closed.
NOTE: If the BCM receives an unlock input before
a sliding door is closed, this will cancel the memory
lock.
3.15.2 DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
When the key is in the ignition and in any
position and either front door is open, the door lock
switches LOCK functions are disabled. The UN-
LOCK functions are still functional. This protects
against locking the vehicle with the keys still in the
ignition. The RKE key fob will still lock the doors as
usual. This allows the driver to lock the vehicle with
the engine running for warm up.
3.15.3 AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
This feature can be enabled or disabled by using
either the DRBIIItor the customer programming
method. When enabled all the doors will lock when
the vehicle reaches a speed of 18 MPH (29 KMH)
and all the doors are closed. If a door is opened and
the vehicle slows to below 18 MPH (29 KMH), thedoor locks will operate again once all doors are
closed and the speed is above 15 MPH (24 KMH).
3.15.4 REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE)
The body control module interfaces with the RKE
module via a one-way serial bus interface. The RKE
module is not on the PCI bus. The RKE module
sends a 0-5 volt pulse width signal to the BCM
depending on which button on the transmitter was
pressed. The BCM controls the door lock/unlock
functions and the arming/disarming of the Vehicle
Theft Security System (if equipped) and the activa-
tion of illuminated entry. The BCM will also send
the appropriate messages to the Power Sliding
Doors and Power Liftgate modules. The Intelligent
Power Module (IPM) activates the park lamps,
headlamps, and horn for horn chirp when sent the
appropriate message from the BCM as received
from the RKE transmitter. When a one-button
press is made for unlock, both driver side doors will
unlock and the front and rear turn signal will flash.
When a second press is initiated (within 5 seconds
of the first) both passenger doors will unlock and all
four turn signals will flash.
The RKE module is capable of retaining up to 4
individual access codes (4 transmitters). If the
PRNDL is in any position except park, the BCM will
ground the interface thereby disabling the RKE.
The 2 button transmitter will have 2-CR2016
batteries in series. The 5 button transmitter will
have 1-CR2016 battery. The minimum battery life
should be approximately 4.7 years based on 20
transmissions a day at 84ÉF (25ÉC). Using the
DRBIIItand selecting RKE FOB Test can test the
transmitter.
The RKE module can be programmed via the
DRBIIItor the customer programming method.
The BCM will only allow programming mode to be
entered when the ignition is in the on position, the
PRNDL is in park position, and the VTSS (if
equipped) is in the disarmed mode.
3.16 POWER FOLDING MIRRORS
The power folding mirrors are powered to two
positions: folded and unfolded. The driver may
choose fold or unfold with a switch that is located on
the right side of the steering column. The folding
mirror switch grounds a sense wire that comes from
the Body Control Module when it is placed in the
fold position. The mirrors will move to the position
designated by the switch whether the ignition
switch is the On or Off position and both front doors
are closed. When the Power Folding Mirror switch
is left in the fold position during a vehicle exit the
mirrors will automatically unfold then refold after
both front doors are closed. This is to prevent mirror
contact with either front door when opened. When

manual sliding door. When the child lock out switch
is on, the B pillar switches are disabled.
There is only one part number for the power
sliding door module (PSDM). The driver sliding
door harness has an additional ground circuit which
will identify it as the driver side. This eliminates
the need for a left and a right side module.
3.18.2 DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES
The PSDM can be flashed on vehicle via PCI bus
with a DRBIIItdiagnostic tool. The DRBIIItcan
read all inputs, actuate all outputs, read module
information, and read diagnostic trouble codes. As a
reminder, some DTC's can be set during normal
PSD operation.
3.18.3 SYSTEM INHIBITORS
1. Battery voltage too high or too low (above 16V,
below 9.5V)
2. Vehicle in gear
3. Vehicle speed > 0 mph/km/h
4. Child locks enabled inhibit the B pillar switch
operation
5. O/H console lockout will inhibit the B pillar
switches
6. Doors locked will inhibit all interior switches
from opening (Overhead Console, B Pillar). A
locked sliding door can be power closed.
3.19 REAR WINDOW DEFOG/HEATED
MIRROR/FRONT WIPER DE-ICE
The defroster button located on the HVAC control
controls the rear window defogger, heated side view
mirrors and front wiper de-icer grid. In addition the
front wiper de-ice function is turned on when front
defog/defrost mode is selected.
When the defroster button is pushed, the HVAC
control sends a bus message over the PCI bus to the
Front Control Module (FCM) which controls the
Rear Window Defogger relay. The defroster LED
will illuminate when the defroster function is on.
The defroster will function for 10 minutes or can be
cycled off sooner by pressing the defroster button
again. The front wiper de-icer grid receives its 12
volts from the accessory relay through fuse 11 and
the HVAC control module supplies the grid ground.
3.20 VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM
3.20.1 BASE ALARM SYSTEM
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) is part
of the Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM
monitors the vehicle doors, liftgate, hood, and theignition for unauthorized operation. The alarm ac-
tivates by sounding the horn, flashing the head-
lamps and the VTSS indicator lamp. The VTSS does
not prevent engine operation, this is done with the
Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM). Passive
arming occurs in one of two ways. Upon normal
vehicle exit by removing the ignition key, opening
the driver door, locking the doors with the power
lock, and closing the driver door, or by removing the
ignition key, opening the driver door, closing the
driver door, and locking the doors with the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. The VTSS indi-
cator lamp will flash for approximately 15 seconds
during the arming process. If there is no interrup-
tion during the arming process, upon completion
the VTSS indicator lamp will flash at a slower rate.
When the BCM receives an input to trigger the
alarm, the BCM will control the outputs of the
headlamps, horn, and VTSS lamp for approxi-
mately 18 minutes.
Arming (Active and Passive)
Active arming occurs when the RKE transmitter
is used to lock the vehicle doors, whether the doors
are open or closed. The arming process is complete
only after all doors are closed.
Passive arming occurs when the ignition key is
removed, the driver door is opened, and the doors
are locked with the power door lock switch, and the
door is closed.
Disarming (Active and Passive)
Active disarming occurs when the RKE transmit-
ter is used to unlock the vehicle doors. This disarm-
ing will also halt the alarm once it has been acti-
vated.
Passive disarming occurs upon normal vehicle
entry (unlocking driver door with the key). This
disarming will also halt the alarm once it has been
activated.
Tamper Alert
The VTSS tamper alert will sound the horn three
times upon disarming to indicate a tamper condi-
tion has occurred.
Manual Override
The system will not arm if the doors are locked
using the manual lock control or if the locks are
actuated by an inside occupant after the doors are
closed.
Diagnosis
For complaints about the Vehicle Theft Alarm
triggering on its own, use the DRBIIItand read the
Last VTSS Cause status.

GENERAL INFORMATION

NOTE: A POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
FROM A VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH A
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM
CANNOT BE USED IN A VEHICLE THAT IS
NOT EQUIPPED WITH A VEHICLE THEFT
SECURITY SYSTEM IF THE VTSS INDICATOR
LAMP COMES ON AFTER IGNITION ON AND
STAYS ON, THE PCI BUS COMMUNICATION
WITH THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL
MODULE HAS POSSIBLY BEEN LOST.
3.20.2 THATCHAM ALARM SYSTEM
The Thatcham Alarm Module monitors the vehi-
cle doors, liftgate, hood and the interior of the
vehicle for unauthorized operation. The vehicle
doors, liftgate, and hood use ajar switches as inputs
to the BCM to indicate their current status. The
interior of the vehicle is secured by the use of
Intrusion Sensors. The Intrusion Sensors are used
as inputs to the RKE/Thatcham Alarm Module to
report any motion in the interior of the vehicle. The
alarm activates by sounding the siren, flashing the
hazard lamps, and the VTSS Indicator Lamp.
Arming
Before arming, all doors, liftgate, and the hood
must be completely closed. The system can then be
armed by following a normal exit sequence, of
opening the door and then locking the doors with
the door lock switch and then closing the door. The
system can also be armed by opening the door,
closing the door and then locking the doors with the
RKE transmitter.
Disarming
To disarm the alarm system, the RKE transmit-
ter is used. The RKE transmitter will unlock the
vehicle doors and disarm the alarm system. The
RKE transmitter can also be used to halt the alarm
once it has been activated.
3.21 WIPER SYSTEM
3.21.1 FRONT WIPER
The front wiper/washer system consists of the
following features: lo-hi-speed, mist wipers, inter-
mittent wipers and wipe after wash. The front
wiper system is only active when the ignition switch
is in the RUN/ACC position. The vehicle operator
selects the front wiper function using the front
wiper switch (a resistive multiplexed stalk switch)
which is integral to the Multi-Function Switch. The
front wiper switch is hardwired to the Body Control
Module (BCM). Upon receiving a wiper switch sig-
nal, the BCM sends a PCI Bus message to the Front
Control Module (FCM). The FCM controls the ON/OFF relay, the HIGH/LOW relay and the front and
rear washer pump motors.
The Wiper system utilizes the BCM to control the
on/off and hi/low relays for the low and hi speed
wiper functions, intermittent wiper delay as the
switch position changes, pulse wipe, wipe after
wash mode and wiper motor functions. The BCM
uses the vehicle speed input to double the usual
delay time below 10 MPH (6 KPH).
3.21.2 SPEED SENSITIVE INTERMITTENT
WIPE MODE
There are 5 individual delay time settings with a
minimum delay of 1.7 seconds to a maximum of 18.4
seconds. When the vehicle speed is under 10 MPH
(6 KPM), the delay time is doubled, providing a
delay range of 3.4 seconds to 36.8 seconds.
3.21.3 PULSE WIPE
When the wiper is in the off position and the
driver presses the wash button for more than .062
seconds, but less than .5 seconds, 2 wipe cycles in
low speed mode will be provided.
3.21.4 PARK AFTER IGNITION OFF
Because the wiper relays are powered from the
battery, the BCM can run the wipers to park after
the ignition is turned off.
3.21.5 WIPE AFTER WASH
When the driver presses the wash button for over
.5 seconds and releases it, the wiper will continue to
run for 2 additional wipe cycles.
3.21.6 REAR WIPER
The rear wiper/washer system consists of the
following features: mist wipers, intermittent wipers
and wipe after wash. The rear wiper system is only
active when the ignition switch is in the RUN/ACC
position. The vehicle operator selects the rear wiper
function using one of the three buttons on the dash
mounted rear wiper switch. The rear wiper switch
is hardwired to the Body Control Module (BCM).
Upon receiving a wiper switch signal, the BCM
provides 12 volts to the rear wiper motor. Rear
washer occurs when the BCM receives a rear
washer switch ON input. The BCM sends a PCI Bus
message to the FCM requesting rear washer on.
The FCM activates the rear washer by providing a
ground for the rear washer motor.
3.21.7 SPEED SENSITIVE INTERMITTENT
WIPE MODE
The delay setting of the rear wiper system is
based solely on the vehicle speed. The delay time is
