NOTE: It may be possible to generate Sliding Door
Diagnostic Trouble Codes during normal power
sliding door operation. Refer to the Body Diagnos-
tic Manual for a complete list of diagnostic routines.
For additional information, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER DOORS - OPERATION) . For a com-
plete power sliding door system wiring schematic,
refer to Wiring Diagrams. For power sliding door sys-
tem operation instructions, refer to the vehicle owner
manual.
WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS IN POWER SLIDING DOOR OPER-
ATION BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SERVICE OF
POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM OR COMPO-
NENTS.
OPERATION
With the push of a power sliding door open/close
command switch (key fob, overhead console or B-pil-
lar mounted) a signal is sent out to the Body Control
Module (BCM). The BCM then sends a signal out on
the PCI Data Bus circuit (J1850) to the power sliding
door module. The power sliding door module then
signals the power sliding door latch to release the
door to the unlatched and movable position. The
motor then starts an open cycle.
During the door open cycle, if the power sliding
door module detects sufficient resistance to door
travel, such as an obstruction in the door's path, the
power sliding door module will immediately stop door
movement and reverse door travel to the full open orclosed position. The ability for the power sliding door
module to detect resistance to door travel is accom-
plished by hall effect sensors and the door motor
speed.
The power sliding door control module has the abil-
ity to learn. Anytime a door is opened or closed using
the power sliding door system the module learns
from its cycle. If a replacement power sliding door
component is installed or a door adjustment is made,
the module must re-learn the effort required to open
or close the door. A learn cycle can be performed with
a Diagnostic Scan Tool, such as the DRB IIIt, or with
a complete cycle of the door, using any one of the
command switches. Refer to Standard Procedures in
this section for detailed instructions.
The power sliding door system is designed with a
number of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are
necessary for safety and/or feasibility of the power
sliding door system. See the power sliding door sys-
tem inhibitors noted below:
POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM INHIBITORS
²The power sliding door must be in thefullopen
or closed position in order for the power sliding door
system to start a cycle. If the door is not in this posi-
tion (based on the input from the full open, pawl or
ratchet switches) the door control module will not
respond to command switch inputs.
²The vehicles transmission must be inpark or
neutralin order for the power sliding door system to
start a cycle.
²The vehicles child lockout switch must be in the
ªUNLOCKEDº position in order for the power sliding
door systems B-pillar switches to function.
²If multiple obstacles are detected during the
same power open or close cycle the power sliding
door may go into full manual mode.
²If severe Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are
stored in the power sliding door control module the
power sliding door may go into full manual mode.
²Due to the high pressure created in the passen-
ger compartment with the blower motor on high, the
power sliding door may not complete a power close
cycle unless a window is cracked, allowing the pres-
sure to escape. This situation will only be experi-
enced on some vehicles, or vehicles with brand new
side door weather seals installed. Refer to the Side
Door Adjustment procedure in the Standard Proce-
dures section of this group.
²The vehicles fuel tank filler door must be in the
closed position. Due to the sliding door interference
with the open fuel tank filler door, mechanical link-
age prevents the side door from opening and striking
the fuel door. Refer to the Body section of this man-
ual for detailed information on the fuel door lockout
feature.Fig. 3 POWER SIDE DOOR FUSE LOCATION

LATCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power side door or doors
utilize a power latch. One power latch is used for
each power door. The latch is located on the trailing
edge of the side door assembly (Fig. 5). This power
latch assembly is comprised of many different compo-
nents which have the ability to perform the power
cinch, release, lock, unlock and safety related opera-
tions. These components are the door latch, lock/un-
lock actuator, cinch/release actuator and child
lockout, pawl, ratchet and handle switches. The
ratchet switch is used to indicate the primary locked
position. The pawl switch is used to indicate the sec-
ondary position. The cinch latch also provides a con-
nection point for the interior handle, exterior handle
and hold open latch cables.
The power latch is a replaceable component. Con-
sult your Mopar parts catalog for specific part num-
bers.
OPERATION
The power latch performs the same operation as a
full manual door latch as well as power cinch,
release, lock and unlock operations. The power latch
mounted actuator cinches the door closed and latches
it in its primary latched position. During a power
close cycle, the power cinch actuator will not operate
until the side door has reached its secondary latchposition (determined by pawl and ratchet switches).
During a power open cycle, the power release actua-
tor will stop once the side door has moved from pri-
mary latch position (determined by ratchet switch).
The power latch uses inputs from the lock/unlock
actuator, power side door control module and child
lockout, pawl, ratchet and handle switches to provide
safe power cinch and release operations. Refer to
Power Side Door Operation for additional informa-
tion.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the appropriate side door trim panel.
Refer to the Body section for the procedure.
(3) Remove the weather shield if necessary. Refer
to the Body section for the procedure.
(4) Open the side door all the way and remove the
door latch retaining bolts (Fig. 6).
(5) Partially close the door and pull the latch
assembly out of the side door inner panel.
(6) Disconnect all electrical connectors leading to
the latch assembly.
(7) Disconnect the inside and outside handle cables
from the latch assembly. Refer to the Body Section of
the service manual for the procedure.

LEFT B-PILLAR SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with power sliding side door/s
utilize B-pillar switches. These switches are located
on the interior of the vehicle, on the B-pillar trim
panels. These switches serve as an open and close
command switch for the appropriate power side door.
The B-pillar switches are replaceable. Consult your
Mopar parts catalog for a specific part number.
OPERATION
When the Pillar switch is depressed a signal is
sent to the Body Control Module (BCM), this signal
is then sent to the Power Sliding Door Module, tell-
ing it to start a power open or close cycle. The child
lockout feature must be disabled and the side door
must be unlocked in order for the Pillar switch to
function.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Using a trim stick or other small flat-bladed
pry tool, gently pry the leading upper edge of the
B-pillar switch away from the B-pillar trim.
(3) Once the upper edge is free from pillar trim,
rock the switch out of the switch opening.
(4) Disconnect the B-pillar switch electrical con-
nector. First, slide the connector lock away from the
switch then, depress connector retaining tab while
pulling straight apart.
(5) Remove the B-pillar switch from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect the B-pillar switch electrical connector.
Slide connector lock toward the switch to lock in
place.
(2) Hook the lower edge of the B-pillar switch on
the B-pillar trim and then push the switch firmly
into position.
(3) Connect the negative battery cable.
