3.1.2 CLOCKSPRING
The clockspring is mounted on the steering col-
umn behind the steering wheel. This assembly
consist of a plastic housing which contains a flat,
ribbon-like, electrically conductive tape that winds
and unwinds with the steering wheel rotation. The
clockspring is used to maintain a continuous elec-
trical circuit between the instrument panel wiring
and the driver airbag, the horn, and the vehicle
speed control switches if equipped. The clockspring
must be properly centered when it is reinstalled on
the steering column following any service proce-
dure, or it could be damaged. The clockspring can-
not be repaired and it must be replaced.
3.1.3 PASSENGER AIRBAG
The airbag door in the instrument panel top cover
the glove box is the most visible part of the passen-
ger side airbag system. The airbag door has a living
hinge at the top, which is secured to the instrument
panel top cover. Located under the airbag door is
the airbag cushion and its supporting components.
The airbag module includes a housing to which the
cushion and hybrid inflators are attached and
sealed. The 2001 Minivan is equipped with front
passenger airbag with dual stage inflators that
include a small canister of highly compressed argon
gas. The ORC uses vehicle crash severity, front
passenger seat belt switch status (buckled or un-
buckled) inputs to determine the level of airbag
deployment. When supplied with the proper electri-
cal signal, the hybrid inflator or inflators discharge
the compressed gas it contains directly into the
cushion. The airbag module cannot be repaired, and
must be replaced if deployed or in any way dam-
aged.
WARNING: THE PASSENGER AIRBAG
MODULE CONTAINS ARGON GAS
PRESSURIZED TO 17236.89 Kpa (2500 PSI).
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISMANTLE AN
AIRBAG MODULE OR TAMPER WITH ITS

3.1.4 SEAT BELT TENSIONER (SBT)
The driver and passenger seat belt (buckle) ten-
sioners are mounted to the inboard side of the front
seats. The seat belt buckle and seat belt switch are
connected directly to the seat belt tensioner cable.
At the onset of an impact event the ORC uses the
seat belt tensioner to rapidly retract the seat belt
buckles. With the slack removed, the occupant's
forward motion in an impact will be reduced as will
the likelihood of contacting interior components.
The seat belt tensioner cannot be removed, the
occupant's forward motion in an impact will be
reduced as will the likelihood of contacting re-
paired, if damaged or defective it must be replaced.
The ORC continuously monitors the resistance of
the seat belt tensioner circuits an open or shorted
conditions.
3.1.5 SEAT BELT SWITCHES (SBS)
The hall-effect driver and front passenger seat
belt switches provide the seat belt status, buckledor unbuckled, via hardwired inputs to the ORC. The
ORC uses seat belt switch inputs to determine the
appropriate level of airbag deployment. If the seat
belt switches are damaged or defective the seat belt
tensioner must be replaced. The ORC continuously
monitors the seat belt switch circuits for an open or
shorted conditions.
3.1.6 SIDE IMPACT AIRBAG CONTROL
MODULE (SIACM)
Supplemental driver and front passenger seat
airbags provide side impact protection for the front
seat occupants. Each side airbag has it own side
impact airbag control module (SIACM) to provide
independent impact sensing and deployment. SI-
ACM are located on the left and right B post just
above the seat belt retractor. One, same part num-
ber, side impact airbag control module (SIACM) is
used on both side of the vehicle. However, for proper
PCI bus operation each SIACM must have a unique
module identification. To provide the unique mod-
ule identification for both, left and right, the
SIACM software looks for a ground on cavity 5 of
the SIACM connector. If cavity 5 is grounded the
SIACM communicates as a left SIACM otherwise it
communicates as a right SIACM. The SIACM per-
forms self diagnostics and circuit tests to determine

the SIACM will request that the airbag warning

if the system is functioning properly. If the test
finds a problem the SIACM will set both active and
stored diagnostic trouble codes. If a DTC is active
the SIACM will request that the airbag warning
lamp be turned on. The results of the system test
are transmitted on the PCI Bus to the ORC once
each second or on change in lamp state. If the
warning lamp status message from the either SI-
ACM contains a lamp on request, the ORC will set
an active DTC. At the same time as the DTC is set
the ORC sends a PCI Bus message to the mechan-
ical instrument cluster (MIC) requesting the airbag
warning lamp be turned on. Observe all ORC warn-
ing and caution statements when servicing or han-
dling the SIACM. SIACM are not repairable and
must be replaced if they are dropped.
WARNING: THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS A
SENSITIVE, COMPLEX ELECTRO-
MECHANICAL UNIT. BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO DIAGNOSE OR SERVICE ANY AIRBAG
SYSTEM OR RELATED STEERING WHEEL,
STEERING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT
PANEL COMPONENTS YOU MUST FIRST
DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE. WAIT TWO
MINUTES FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO
DISCHARGE BEFORE FURTHER SYSTEM
SERVICE. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO
DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE
TO DO THIS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE
PERSONAL INJURY. NEVER STRIKE OR
KICK THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE, AS
IT CAN DAMAGE THE IMPACT SENSOR OR
AFFECT ITS CALIBRATION. IF AN AIRBAG
CONTROL MODULE IS ACCIDENTALLY
DROPPED DURING SERVICE, THE MODULE
MUST BE SCRAPPED AND REPLACED WITH
A NEW UNIT.
The airbag warning lamp is the only point at
which the customer can observe symptoms of a
system malfunction. Whenever the ignition key is
turned to the run or start position, the MIC per-
forms a lamp check by turning the airbag warning
indicator on for 6-8 seconds. After the lamp check, if
the indicator turns on, it means that the ORC has
checked the system and found it to be free of
discernible malfuctions. If the lamp remains on,
there could be an active fault in the system or the
MIC lamp circuit may be internally shorted to
ground. If the lamp comes on and stays on for a
period longer than 6-8 seconds then goes off, there
is usually an intermittent problem in the system.
3.1.7 SEAT AIRBAGS (SAB)
The left and right seat airbag modules are located
in the outboard end of the front seat backs. The
airbag module contains a bag, an inflator (a small
canister of highly compressed argon gas) and a
mounting bracket. The seat airbag module cannot
be repaired and must be replaced if deployed or in
any way damaged. When supplied with the proper
electrical signal the inflator seals the hole in the
airbag cushion so it can discharge the compressed
gas it contains directly into the cushion. Upon
deployment, the seat back trim cover will tear open
and allow the seat airbag to fully deploy between
the seat and the door.
WARNING: SEAT AIRBAG CONTAINS ARGON
GAS PRESSURIZED TO OVER 17236.89 Kpa
(2500 PSI). DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
DISMANTLE AN AIRBAG MODULE OR
TAMPER WITH ITS INFLATOR. DO NOT
PUNCTURE, INCINERATE, OR BRING INTO
CONTACT WITH ELECTRICITY. DO NOT
STORE AT TEMPERATURE EXCEEDING 93ÉC
(200ÉF). REPLACE AIRBAG SYSTEM
COMPONENTS ONLY WITH PARTS
SPECIFIED IN THE CHRYSLER MOPAR
PARTS CATALOG. SUBSTITUTE PARTS MAY
APPEAR INTERCHANGEABLE, BUT
INTERNAL DIFFERENCES MAY RESULT IN
INFERIOR OCCUPANT PROTECTION. THE
FASTENERS, SCREWS, AND BOLTS
ORIGINALLY USED FOR THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM COMPONENTS HAVE SPECIAL
COATINGS AND ARE SPECIFICALLY
DESIGNED FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. THEY
MUST NEVER BE REPLACED WITH ANY
SUBSTITUTES. ANY TIME A NEW FASTENER
IS NEEDED, REPLACE IT WITH THE
CORRECT FASTENERS PROVIDED IN THE
SERVICE PACKAGE OR SPECIFIED IN THE
MOPAR PARTS CATALOG.
3.1.8 ORC/SIACM DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE
CODES
Airbag diagnostic trouble codes consist of active
and stored codes. If more than one code exists,
diagnostic priority should be given to the active
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 the trouble codes. 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 DRB.
Always begin diagnostic with the Table of Contents

section 7.0. This will direct you to the specific test(s)
that must be performed. Active diagnostic trouble
codes for the airbag system are not permanent and
will change the moment the reason for the code is
corrected. In certain test procedures within this
manual, diagnostic trouble codes are used as a
diagnostic tool.
3.1.9 ACTIVE CODES
The code becomes active as soon as the malfunc-
tion is detected or key-on, whichever occurs first. An
active trouble code indicates an on-going malfunc-
tion. This means that the defect is currently there
every time the airbag control module checks that
circuit or component. It is impossible to erase an
active code. Active codes automatically erase by
themselves when the reason for the code has been
corrected. With the exception of the warning lamp
trouble codes or malfunctions, when a malfunction
is detected, the airbag lamp remains lit for a mini-
mum of 12 seconds or as long as the malfunction is
present.
3.1.10 STORED CODES
Airbag codes are automatically stored in the
ORC's memory as soon as the malfunction is de-
tected. The exception is the Loss of Ignition Run
Only code which is an active code only. A stored code
indicates there was an active code present at some
time. However, the code currently may not be
present as an active code, although another code
could be active. When a trouble code occurs, the
airbag warning indicator illuminates for 12 seconds
minimum (even if the problem existed for less than
12 seconds). The code is stored, along with the time
in minutes it was active, and the number of times
the ignition has been cycled since the problem was
last detected. The minimum time shown for any
code will be one minute, even if the code was
actually present for less than one minute. Thus, the
time shown for a code will be one minute, even if the
code was actually present for less than one minute.
Thus, the time shown for a code that was present
for two minutes 13 seconds, for example, would be
three minutes. If a malfunction is detected a diag-
nostic trouble code is stored and will remain stored.
When and if the malfunction ceases to exist, an
ignition cycle count will be initiated for that code. If
the ignition cycle count reaches 100 without a
reoccurrence of the same malfunction, the diagnos-
tic trouble code is erased and that ignition cycle
counter is reset to zero. If the malfunction reoccurs
before the count reaches 100, then the ignition cycle
counter will be reset and diagnostic trouble code
will continue to be a stored code. If a malfunction is
not active while performing a diagnostic test proce-
dure, the active code diagnostic test will not locatethe source of the problem. In this case, the stored
code can indicate an area to inspect. If no obvious
problems are found, erase stored codes, and with
the ignition on wiggle the wire harness and connec-
tors, rotate the steering wheel from stop to stop.
Recheck for codes periodically as you work through
the system. This procedure may uncover a malfunc-
tion that is difficult to locate.
3.2 AUDIO SYSTEM
The following radios are all on the PCI Bus
system - RBB, RBK, RAZ, RAD, RBT, and RBY. The
remaining radio also available, the RAS, is NOT on
the PCI Bus. The PCI Bus inputs into the radio are
used for VF dimming, remote steering wheel con-
trols and cabin EQ preference. PCI Bus outputs
from the radio are used for the Name Brand
Speaker (NBS) relay activation, as well as cabin EQ
preference.
The RBB and RBK radios have the capability of
containing multiple vehicle unique equalization
curves (cabin EQ preferences) within the radio.
These curves will reside in the radio's flash memory.
The radio is capable of storing up to 20 unique
equalization curves. The latent curves can be se-
lected via the Front Control Module transmitting a
PCI Bus message to the radio in response to a radio
request for equalization message. Upon receipt of a
valid equalization select message response, the ra-
dio will switch to output the corresponding equal-
ization curve.
All the radios, except the RAS, are capable of
displaying faults and allowing certain actuation
tests through the use of the DRBIIIt. When at-
tempting to perform PCI Bus diagnostics, the first
step is to identify the radio in use in the vehicle.
When trouble shooting output shorts or ªoutputº
error messages, the following applies:
On radios without an external amplifier, the term
output refers to the path between the radio and the
speaker. This type of circuit can be monitored all
the way through the speaker connections by the
radio assembly. When the radio displays a shorted
output DTC with this type of system, the speaker,
radio, or wiring could be at fault. The output DTC
could refer to the front or rear output or a left or
right output. The reason for the difference is the
pairing of the output sections of the radio. Some are
paired left and right, others are paired front and
rear.
On radios with an external amplifier, the term
ªoutputº refers to the circuit between the radio
connector and the amplifier. The radio is capable of
monitoring only this portion and can tell nothing
about the circuit between the amplifier and the
speakers. Consequently, a shorted output DTC on

A faulty speaker could not cause this DTC.
3.2.1 REMOTE RADIO CONTROLS
These radios can be controlled via remote radio
switches (optional). These

this type of system would only refer to this circuit.
A faulty speaker could not cause this DTC.
3.2.1 REMOTE RADIO CONTROLS
These radios can be controlled via remote radio
switches (optional). These switches are located on
the back side of the steering wheel. They control
mode, preset, seek up, seek down, volume up and
volume down functions.
These functions are inputs to the Body Control
Module and can be read with the DRBIIItunder
ªbody computerº. The switches are a multiplexed
signal to the BCM. The radio control MUX circuit is
a 5 volt line that is pulled to ground through
different value resistors built into the switches.
This causes a voltage drop to be seen by the BCM
and it sends a specific message to the radio on the
PCI Bus circuit. The radio then responses to the
message.
This circuit is fairly simple to troubleshoot. The
circuit must be complete from the switches in the
steering wheel to the BCM. The ground must be
complete so that the switches can cause the voltage
drop for the BCM to see. The circuit passes through
the clockspring so continuity through this devise
must be verified.
3.2.2 CD CHANGER
The new in-dash CD Changer is designed to fit
into the existing cubby bin in the center stack. This
new cartridge-less CD Changer is controlled by
your radio, and allows you to individually load up to
four discs at a time. However, due to its compact
design, the CD Changer can only carry out one
operation at a time. For example, you can not load
a new disc while playing another at the same time.
Each operation happens sequentially.
The radio unit installed with your system pro-
vides control over all features of the CD Changer
with the exception of the CD load and eject func-
tions, which are controlled by buttons located on the
front of the CD Changer. The radio also supplies the
power, ground, PCI Bus, left and right speaker
output thru a single DIN cable. All features you
would expect, such as Disc Up/Down, Track Up/
Down, Random and Scan are controlled by the
radio, which also displays all relevant CD Changer
information on the radio display.
The CD Changer contains a Load/Eject button
and an indicator light for each of the four disc
positions. The individual light indicates whether a
CD is currently loaded in that particular chamber of
the CD Changer. Pressing the individual Load/Eject
button for a particular chamber will eject a disc
currently present in that chamber. If the chamber iscurrently empty, actuating the Load/Eject button
will position that chamber to receive and load a new
disc in that chamber.
3.3 BODY CONTROL MODULE
The body control module (BCM) supplies vehicle
occupants with visual and audible information and
controls various vehicle functions. To provide and
receive information, the module is interfaced to the
vehicle's serial bus communications network (PCI).
This network consists of the powertrain control
module (PCM), the engine control module (ECM) -
diesel only, the transmission control module (TCM),
the mechanical instrument cluster (MIC), the front
control module (FCM), the occupant restraint con-
troller (ORC), the compass/mini-trip (CMTC), the
electronic vehicle information center (EVIC), the
controller antilock brake (CAB), the HVAC control
module (ATC & MTC), the power sliding door (Left
& Right) modules (PSD), the power liftgate module
(PLG), the Audio system, the side impact airbag
control (left & right) modules (SIACM), the memory
seat/mirror module (MSMM), the RKE/thatcham
alarm module and the sentry key immobilizer mod-
ule (SKIM). The BCM is operational when battery
power is supplied to the module.
The body control module provides the following
features:
²Power Door Locks
²Automatic Door Lock
²Door Lock Inhibit
²Central Locking (with VTSS Only)
²Battery Protection
²The BCM will automatically turn off all exterior
lamps after 3 minutes and all interior lamps after
15 minutes after the ignition is turned off, if they
are not turned off by the driver.
²Chime
²Compass/Minitrip Support
²Interior Lighting (Courtesy/Reading Lamps)
²BCM Diagnostic Reporting
²Electronic Liftgate Release (with Power Door
Locks)
²Exterior Lighting
²Power Folding Mirrors
²Remote Radio Controls
²Headlamp Time Delay (with/without Autohead-
lamps)
²Automatic Headlamps (with electrochromatic
mirror)
²Illuminated Entry
²Fade to Off

This feature dims the interior lighting (courtesy
lamps) gradually if the BCM does not receive any
new inputs that would cause the interior lamps to
remain on.
²PWM Instrument Panel Dimming
²Door Lock Inhibit
This feature disables the door lock functions if the
key is in the ignition and either front door is ajar.
Pressing the RKE lock/unlock button under these
conditions, result in normal lock/unlock activation.
²Power Sliding Door Switch Inputs
The BCM has 4 switch inputs for the power
sliding door feature: Located in the overhead con-
sole are the Left and Right side sliding door
switches to activate either or both sliding doors
under the proper conditions. Also are B-Pillar
switches located on the Left and Right B-pillar
posts.
²Power Liftgate Switch Input
The BCM has 1 Liftgate switch input located in
the overhead console
²Power Lockout Switch Input
The BCM has 1 Lockout switch that when en-
abled will disable the B-Pillar sliding door switches
from activating either sliding door when depressed.
When replacing a body control module there are 2
modules available, a Base and a Midline. The
Midline controller is used on vehicles that have
Power Door Locks. If a vehicle is equipped with the
Vehicle Theft Security System, the midline control-
ler becomes a premium when the theft feature is
enabled.
NOTE: DO NOT SWAP THE BODY CONTROL
MODULE BETWEEN VEHICLES OR BODY
CONTROL MODULES OFF THE SHELF.
Engineering does not recommend that service,
dealers or the plant swap Body Control Modules
(BCM) between vehicles or off the shelf. The BCM
has internal diagnostic capability that assists in
diagnosing the system. When an ªOpenº or a
ªShortº circuit exists, the diagnostic tool can be
used to read the BCM codes. The codes are very
descriptive in identifying the appropriate feature
that has faulted.
3.4 CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
The BCM monitors the door/liftgate ajar
switches, multifunction switches, headlight switch,
ignition switch, PCI bus, and the diagnostic tool to
perform various chime operations. The BCM uses a
low-side driver to control the chime located in the
cluster.
The chime system provides the Driver with warn-
ing chimes for:
²Seat belt
²Exterior lights on
²Key-in Ignition
²Key-in Accessory
²Engine temperature critical
²Low washer fluid
²Turn signals on
²Dome light on
²Low oil pressure
²Any warning lamp announcement
²High-speed warning Gulf Coast Countries (GCC)
only
The output sound intensity of the chime is ap-
proximately 72 decibels.
3.4.1 CHIME PRIORITY
The following list indicates the priority of the
chime when more than one chime is active at the
same time:
²Seat belt warning
²High-speed warning Gulf Coast Countries (GCC)
only
²Turn signal on
²Chime request
²Warning lamp announcement
The cluster is responsible to set priority on all
warning lamp announcement chimes.

3.5 COMMUNICATION
The Programmable Communication Interface or
PCI Bus is a single wire multiplexed network capa-
ble of supporting binary encoded messages shared
between multiple modules. The PCI bus circuit is
identified as D25 and is white with a violet tracer.
Additional tracer colors may be added to the violet
in order to distinguish between different module
connections. The modules are wired in parallel.
Connections are made in the harness using splices.
One splice called the Diagnostic Junction Port,
serves as the ªHubº of the bus. The Diagnostic
Junction Port provides an access point to isolate
most of the modules on the bus in order to assist in
diagnosing the circuit. The following modules are
used on the RG:
²Body Control Module
²Front Control Module
²Occupant Restraint Controller
²Left Side Impact Airbag Control Module

Each module provides its own bias and termina-
tion in order to transmit and receive messages. The
bus voltage is at zero volts when no modules are
transmitting and is pulled up to about seven and a
half volts when modules are transmitting.
The bus messages are transmitted at a rate
averaging 10800 bits per second. Since there is only
voltage present when the modules transmit and the
message length is only about 500 milliseconds, it is
ineffective to try and measure the bus activity witha conventional voltmeter. The preferred method is
to use the DRBIIItlab scope. The 12v square wave
selection on the 20-volt scale provides a good view of
the bus activity. Voltage on the bus should pulse
between zero and about seven and a half volts.
Refer to the following figure for some typical dis-
plays.
The PCI Bus failure modes are broken down into
two categories. Complete PCI Bus Communication
Failure and individual module no response. Causes
of complete PCI Bus Communication Failure in-
clude a short to ground or battery on the PCI
circuit. Individual module no response can be
caused by an open circuit at either the Diagnostic
Junction Port or the module, or an open battery or
ground circuit to the affected module.
Symptoms of a complete PCI Bus Communication
Failure would include but are not limited to:
²All gauges on the MIC stay at zero
²All telltales on MIC illuminate
²MIC backlighting at full intensity
²Dashed lines in the overhead console ambient
temperature display
²No response received from any module on the PCI
bus (except the PCM)
²No start (if equipped with Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer)
Symptoms of Individual module failure could
include any one or more of the above. The difference
would be that at least one or more modules would
respond to the DRBIIIt.
Diagnosis starts with symptom identification. If a
complete PCI Bus Communication Failure is sus-
pected, begin by identifying which modules the
vehicle is equipped with and then attempt to get a
response from the modules with the DRBIIIt.Ifany
modules are responding, the failure is not related to
the total bus, but can be caused by one or more
modules PCI circuit or power supply and ground
circuits. The DRBIIItmay display ªBUS +/- SIG-
NAL OPENº or ªNO RESPONSEº to indicate a
communication problem. These same messages will
be displayed if the vehicle is not equipped with that
particular module. The CCD error message is a
default message used by the DRBIIItand in no way
indicates whether or not the PCI bus is operational.
The message is only an indication that a module is
either not responding or the vehicle is not equipped.
