ENGINE COOLANT TEMP
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The engine coolant temperature sensor threads
into a coolant passage in the cylinder head (Fig. 7).
New sensors have sealant applied to the threads.
OPERATION
The coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a nega-
tive temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor (resis-
tance varies inversley with temperature). This means
at cold tempertures its resistance is high so the volt-
age signal will be high. As coolant temperture
increases, resistance decreases and the signal voltage
will be low. This allows the sensor to provide an ana-
log voltage signal to the ECM.
REMOVAL

ENGINE COOLANT
THERMOSTAT
DESCRIPTION
A pellet-type thermostat controls the operating
temperature of the engine by controlling the amount
of coolant flow to the radiator (Fig. 9).
OPERATION
The thermostat starts to open at 80ÉC (176ÉF).
Above this temperature, coolant is allowed to flow to
the radiator. This provides quicker engine warmup
and overall temperature control.
The same thermostat is used for winter and sum-
mer seasons. An engine should not be operated with-
out a thermostat, except for servicing or testing.
Operating without a thermostat causes other prob-
lems. These are: longer engine warmup time, unreli-
able warmup performance, increased exhaust
emissions and crankcase condensation. This conden-
sation can result in sludge formation.
REMOVAL
NOTE: The thermostat is not serviced separately.
The thermostat and housing must be replaced as
an assembly.
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable.
(2) Drain cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING/
ENGINE/COOLANT - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(3) Remove front wiper unit to gain access to ther-
mostat housing(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/WIPERS/

RADIATOR
DESCRIPTION
The radiator is a cross-flow type (horizontal tubes)
with design features that provide greater strength
along with sufficient heat transfer capabilities tokeep the engine satisfactorily cooled. The radiator
has plastic side tanks and aluminum cooling tubes.
OPERATION
The radiator functions as a heat exchanger, using
air flow across the exterior of the radiator tubes. This
heat is then transferred from the coolant and into
the passing air.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative cable from battery.
(2) Remove radiator upper crossmember support.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR
DESCRIPTION
LAMP SYSTEMS
RS vehicles use lighting on the interior and exte-
rior of the vehicle for illuminating and indicating
purposes. Lighting circuits are protected by fuses.
Lighting circuits require an overload protected power
source, on/off device, lamps and body ground to oper-
ate properly. Plastic lamps require a wire in the har-
ness to supply body ground to the lamp socket.
Replace sockets and bulbs that are corroded.
Some of the interior and exterior lighting functions
are governed by the Body Control Module. The head-
lamp, dome, and the door ajar switches provide sig-
nals to the Body Control Module. The Body Control
Module in turn sends a J1850 message to the Front
Control Module (FCM) to enable the necessary driv-
ers to set the required illumination configuration.
Wire connectors can make intermittent contact or
become corroded. Before coupling wire connectors,
inspect the terminals inside the connector. Male termi-
nals should not be bent or disengaged from the insu-
lator. Female terminals should not be sprung open or
disengaged from the insulator. Bent and sprung termi-
nals can be repaired using needle nose pliers and pick
tool. Corroded terminals appear chalky or green. Cor-
roded terminals should be replaced to avoid recur-
rence of the problem symptoms.
Begin electrical system failure diagnosis by testing
related fuses in the fuse block and intelligent power
module. Verify that bulbs are in good condition and
test continuity of the circuit ground. Refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP SYSTEM
The Automatic Headlamp system turns the instru-
mentation and exterior illumination lamps ON when
the ambient light levels are Night and OFF when
light levels are Day.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
Operating the high-beam headlamps at reduced
power provides daytime running lamps, which are
required on all new Canadian vehicles.
HEADLAMPS ON WITH WINDSHIELD WIPERS
For vehicles equipped with the Automatic Head-
lamp System, the instrumentation and exterior illu-
mination lamps will be turned ON when theheadlamp switch is in the AUTO position, RPM >
450 and the windshield wipers have been in the
intermittent, low or high mode of operation for more
than ten seconds. When the windshield wipers are
turned OFF the Body Control Module will determine
if the instrumentation and exterior illumination
lamps should remain ON base upon the current
ambient light level.
HEADLAMP SYSTEM
The configuration of the headlamp system of head-
lamps, park lamps and fog lamps is determined by
the BCM. The BCM determines the lighting configu-
ration as a result of the inputs from the ignition
switch, headlamp switch and multifunction switch. A
J1850 is transmitted from the BCM to the FCM to
enable the necessary drivers to set the illumination
configuration. Four wires are connected between the
headlamp switch and the BCM. The first wire con-
tains information regarding the position of the head-
lamp switch (Off, Automatic Headlamps, Automatic
Headlamp switch fog, Park with Fog, Head, or Head
with Fog Lamps). The second wire contains informa-
tion regarding the position of the dimmer switch
(Dome Lamp, Daytime Brightness, Dimming Level or
Off). The third wire is a dedicated signal return
(ground) wire. The fourth wire provides power to the
front fog lamp indicator.
HEADLAMP TIME DELAY SYSTEM
The headlamp time delay system is controlled by
the Body Control Module (BCM) via a J1850 message
transmitted by the BCM to the FCM to turn off the
headlamps.
OPERATION
AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP SYSTEM
Automatic headlamps are controlled by the Body
Control Module (BCM). With the headlamp switch in
the AUTO position, the BCM will control the head-
lamp, parking, side marker, tail and instrumentation
lamps based on ambient light levels. Ambient light
levels are monitored by the BCM using the Day/
Night signal and Electrochromatic Mirror (ECM)
present from the Compass Mini Trip (CMTC) located
on the front windshield in front of the rear view mir-
ror (ECM). Ambient light readings are averaged to
limit cycling the lamps ON and OFF when passing
through areas with varying light levels. The auto-
matic headlamps will only function when the engine
is running with RPM > 450. When the headlamp
switch is in the AUTO position (Automatic mode), the
Headlamp Time Delay system will function when the
ignition switch is placed in any position other than
run/start.

will provide an optical confirmation when the RKE
receiver recognizes a valid Lock signal from an RKE
transmitter, and two flashes of the same lamps will
occur when the RKE receiver recognizes a valid
Unlock signal from an RKE transmitter. When No is
selected, no lamp flash will occur with the RKE Lock
or Unlock event. This feature may be selected inde-
pendent of theSOUND HORN ON LOCK?pro-
grammable feature.
²HEADLAMP DELAY =- The options include
Off, 30 Sec, 60 Sec, and 90 Sec. The default is 90 Sec.
When a time interval is selected, the headlamps will
remain on for that length of time when the head-
lamps are turned off after the ignition is turned off,
or if the Auto mode is selected on vehicles with the
Auto Headlamps option. When Off is selected, the
headlamp delay feature is disabled.
²HEADLAMPS ON WITH WIPERS?- This pro-
grammable feature only applies to vehicles equipped
with the optional Auto Headlamps. The options
include Yes and No. The default is No. When Yes is
selected, the headlamps will turn on automatically
when the windshield wipers are turned on. The head-
lamps will turn off when the wipers are turned off,
as long as the headlamp switch is in the Auto or Off
positions. When No is selected, the headlamps will
only turn on if manually selected or if the Auto mode
is selected and the outside ambient light levels dic-
tate that they should be on.
²POWER ACCESSORY DELAY?- The options
include Yes and No. The default is Yes. When No is
selected, the accessory powered components will turn
off automatically when the ignition key is turned off.

COMPASS/MINI-TRIP
COMPUTER
DESCRIPTION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) and
Compass Temperature (CT) computer are modules
located in the overhead console. Vehicles are
equipped with either the CMTC or the CT computers
not both. The CMTC is different in the fact that it is
equipped with the mini-trip feature. The CMTC, CT
consists of a electronic control module with a vacuum
fluorescent display (VFD) and function switches. The
CMTC, CT consists of a electronic module that dis-
plays compass, trip computer (CMTC only), and tem-
perature features. Actuating the STEP push button
(CMTC only) will cause the CMTC to change mode of
operation when ignition is ON. Actuating the STEP
push button (CMTC only) will cause the CMTC to
change mode of operation when ignition is ON.

WIPERS/WASHERS
DESCRIPTION
FRONT WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch when the ignition switch is
in the RUN or ACCESSORY positions. The wind-
shield wiper system is protected by a 30 amp fuse (9)
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) part
of the Integrated Power Module (IPM) in the engine
compartment. The wiper/washer switch is integral to
the multi-function switch. It is a resistive MUX
switch that sends inputs to the BCM to operate the
wiper/washer system.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The rear windshield wiper and washers can be
operated when the ignition switch is in the RUN or
ACCESSORY positions.
OPERATION
FRONT WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield washer circuit is protected by a 9
amp PTC located in the Junction Block. The wiper
motor has permanent magnetic fields. The speeds are
determined by current flow to the appropriate set of
brushes inside the motor. The current flow is con-
trolled by the multi-function switch stalk mounted
wiper switch, high speed/low speed relays located in
the Power Distribution Center (PDC) part of the
Integrated Power Module (IPM) in the engine com-
partment. The speed sensitive intermittent wiper is
controlled by the Body Control Module (BCM). The
intermittent mode, with the vehicle traveling greater
than 10.4 mph, has a range of 0.5 to 18 seconds.
With the vehicle traveling less than 10.4 mph, and
the time delay is not adjusted, time delay doubles to
a range of 1 to 36 seconds. The wiper arms will park
at the base of the windshield just above the cowl
cover after the wiper switch is turned OFF.
RSWIPERS/WASHERS8R-1

The windshield wiper motor and linkage is located
in an integral wiper unit at the rear of the engine
compartment. The wiper unit must be removed to
gain access to the wiper motor.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
When continuous rear wiper operation is required,
the Body Control Module (BCM) will provide ignition
ON voltage to the rear wiper motor. When the wiper
switch is turned OFF, the BCM provides circuit
ground to operate the motor until the wipe cycle is
complete and the wiper arm returns to the base of
the rear window.
When intermittent rear wiper mode is selected, the
wiper motor will cycle every 7 seconds. The intermit-
tent delay time is also adjusted based upon vehicle
speed. With the vehicle traveling greater at 50 mph,
the cycle changes to every 5 seconds. DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FRONT WIPER
SYSTEM
The windshield wiper system operates in several
modes:
²Low and high speed normal wipe
²Speed sensitive intermittent wipe
²Wipe after wash
²Pulse wipe
²Park (switch OFF)
The windshield wiper circuits are continuously
monitored and controlled by the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM). If a problem occurs in the electronic com-
ponents, wiring, switch (except integral motor park
switch) and wiper motor a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) will be stored in the BCM memory. DTC's can
be retrieved using a DRB IIItscan tool. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for DTC
descriptions and retrieval information.
The windshield wiper park switch and circuit is
monitored by the BCM. The park switch and circuit
can be tested using the Wiper System Diagnosis
table.
