mitted on the bus even though a module may not
require all information to perform its function. It
will only respond to messages ªaddressedº to it
through binary coding process. This method of data
transmission significantly reduces the complexity
of the wiring in the vehicle and the size of wiring
harnesses. All of the information about the func-
tioning of all the systems is organized, controlled,
and communicated by the PCI bus, which is de-
scribed in the Communication Section of this gen-
eral information.
3.1 AIRBAG SYSTEM/OCCUPANT
RESTRAINT CONTROLLER SYSTEM
The 2001 Minivan Airbag System contain the
following components: Occupant Restraint Control-
ler (ORC), Airbag Warning Indicator, Clockspring,
Driver and Passenger Airbags, Seat belt Tensioners
(SBT), Hall-effect Seat Belt Switches (SBS), Left
and Right Side Airbag Control Module (SIACM),
and Seat (mounted side) Airbags.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is a
new type of Airbag Control Module (ACM) that
supports staged airbag deployment. Staged deploy-
ment is the ability to trigger airbag system squib
inflators all at once or individually as needed to
provide the appropriate restraint for the severity of
the impact. The ORC has four major functions: PCI
Bus communications, onboard diagnostics, impact
sensing, and component deployment. The ORC also
contains an energy-storage capacitor. This capaci-
tor stores enough electrical energy to deploy the
front airbag components for two seconds following a
battery disconnect or failure during an impact. The
ORC is secured to the floor panel transmission
tunnel below the instrument panel inside the vehi-
cle. The ORC cannot be repaired or adjusted and
must be replaced.
The ORC sends and/or receives PCI Bus mes-
sages with the Instrument Cluster (MIC), Body
Control Module (BCM), and Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). Diagnostic trouble codes will be set
if the communication with these modules is lost or
contains invalid information.
The microprocessor in the ORC monitors the
impact sensor signal and the airbag system electri-
cal circuits to determine the system readiness. The
ORC also monitors bus messages from both SIACM.
If the ORC detects a monitored system fault or
SIACM fault, it sends a message to the instrument
cluster via PCI bus to turn on the airbag warning
indicator. The ORC can set both active and stored
diagnostic trouble codes to aid in the diagnosing
system problems. See ORC/SIACM DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLE CODES in this section.
The ORC has an internal accelerometer that
senses the rate of vehicle deceleration, which pro-vides verification of the direction and severity of an
impact. A pre-programmed decision algorithm in
the ORC microprocessor determines when the de-
celeration rate is severe enough to require airbag
system protection. The Occupant Restraint Control-
ler (ORC) also uses the driver and front passenger
seat belt switch status (buckled or unbuckled) as
inputs to determine the level of airbag deployment,
low, medium, or high as well as whether or not the
seat belt tensioners should deploy. The ORC also
uses the crash severity to determine the level of
driver and front passenger deployment, low me-
dium or high. When the programmed conditions are
met, the ORC sends an electrical signal to deploy
the appropriate airbag system components.WARNING: THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS A
SENSITIVE, COMPLEX ELECTRO-
MECHANICAL UNIT. BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO DIAGNOSE OR SERVICE ANY AIRBAG
SYSTEM OR RELATED STEERING WHEEL,

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 malfunctions. 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.

GENERAL INFORMATION

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.

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

GENERAL INFORMATION

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

GENERAL INFORMATION

3.7.6 EXTERIOR LIGHTING BATTERY
SAVER
The BCM monitors the status of, and controls, the
Park Lamps, Headlamps and Fog Lamp relays. If
any exterior lamps are left ON after the ignition is
turned OFF, the BCM will turn them OFF after 3
minutes.
3.7.7 AUTO HEADLAMPS
This feature is available on vehicles equipped
with both the Electrocromatic Mirror (ECM) and
the Compass/Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC). When
the BCM detects a day/night signal from the CMTC,
an ECM is present and Auto Headlamp mode is
selected.
3.8 FRONT CONTROL MODULE
The Front Control Module (FCM) is an electrical
control and interface center located in the engine
compartment. When it is mated to the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC), it is referred to as the
Intelligent Power Module (IPM). The IPM, with its
fuses and relays provides power and signal distri-
bution throughout most of the vehicle. The FCM
receives both hard wire and digital electronic inputs
from the vehicle electrical system through the PDC.
Based on these inputs and the ignition switch
position, it provides direct power feeds and relay
control to some of the vehicles' most critical electri-
cal systems.
The Front Control Module provides the following
features:

3.8.1 CONTROLLED POWER FEEDS
Front airbag system
The FCM provides power to the Occupant Re-
straint Control (ORC) system through two ªfuse-
lessº circuits (ORC RUN/START, and ORC RUN
only). These circuits are electronically controlled
and continuously monitored for malfunctions.
Power is supplied while the ignition switch is in the
RUN and START positions on pin 48 of the FCM
connector, and in the RUN only position on pin 29.
Side airbag system
The FCM provides power to the Side Impact
Airbag Control Module (SIACM) system through
one ªfuselessº circuit. This circuit is electronically
controlled and continuously monitored for malfunc-
tions. Power is supplied in the ignition RUN and
START positions on pin 28 of the FCM connector.
Headlamp power
The headlamp switch is a direct input to the
BCM. The BCM sends a PCI Bus message to the
FCM informing it of a headlamp switch status
change. The FCM then turns on power to the
headlamps through four ªfuselessº circuits. These
circuits are electronically controlled and continu-
ously monitored for malfunctions. Power is supplied
to each filament in a separate circuit (RH low on pin
6, RH high on pin 4, LH low on pin 3 and LH high
on pin 5). For vehicles equipped with Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL), the FCM electronically
steps down the headlamp voltage to provide the
desired illumination.
