CAUTION: Never loosen pinion nut to decrease pin-
ion bearing rotating torque and never exceed spec-
ified preload torque. If rotating torque is exceeded,
a new collapsible spacer must be installed.(10) If the rotating torque is low, use Holder 6719
to hold the companion flange (Fig. 23) and tighten
the pinion nut in 6.8 N´m (5 ft. lbs.) increments until
proper rotating torque is achieved.
NOTE: The bearing rotating torque should be con-
stant during a complete revolution of the pinion. If
the rotating torque varies, this indicates a binding
condition.
(11) The seal replacement is unacceptable if the
final pinion nut torque is less than 285 N´m (210 ft.
lbs.).

TRATION AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY FOR THE HANDLING, PROCESSING, AND
DISPOSITION OF DUST OR DEBRIS THAT MAY
CONTAIN ASBESTOS FIBERS.
CAUTION: Never use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol,
motor oil, transmission fluid, or any fluid containing
mineral oil to clean the system components. These
fluids damage rubber cups and seals. Use only
fresh brake fluid or Mopar brake cleaner to clean or
flush brake system components. These are the only
cleaning materials recommended. If system contam-
ination is suspected, check the fluid for dirt, discol-
oration, or separation into distinct layers. Also
check the reservoir cap seal for distortion. Drain
and flush the system with new brake fluid if con-
tamination is suspected.
CAUTION: Use Mopar brake fluid, or an equivalent
quality fluid meeting SAE/DOT standards J1703 and
DOT 3. Brake fluid must be clean and free of con-
taminants. Use fresh fluid from sealed containers
only to ensure proper antilock component opera-
tion.
CAUTION: Use Mopar multi-mileage or high temper-
ature grease to lubricate caliper slide surfaces,
drum brake pivot pins, and shoe contact points on
the backing plates. Use multi-mileage grease or GE
661 or Dow 111 silicone grease on caliper slide pins
to ensure proper operation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BASE BRAKE
SYSTEM
Base brake components consist of the brake shoes,
calipers, wheel cylinders, brake drums, rotors, brake
lines, master cylinder, booster, and parking brake
components.
Brake diagnosis involves determining if the prob-
lem is related to a mechanical, hydraulic, or vacuum
operated component.
The first diagnosis step is the preliminary check.
PRELIMINARY BRAKE CHECK
(1) Check condition of tires and wheels. Damaged
wheels and worn, damaged, or underinflated tires
can cause pull, shudder, vibration, and a condition
similar to grab.
(2) If complaint was based on noise when braking,
check suspension components. Jounce front and rear
of vehicle and listen for noise that might be caused
by loose, worn or damaged suspension or steering
components.
(3) Inspect brake fluid level and condition. Note
that the brake reservoir fluid level will decrease in
proportion to normal lining wear.Also note that
brake fluid tends to darken over time. This is
normal and should not be mistaken for contam-
ination.
(a) If fluid level is abnormally low, look for evi-
dence of leaks at calipers, wheel cylinders, brake
lines, and master cylinder.
(b) If fluid appears contaminated, drain out a
sample to examine. System will have to be flushed
if fluid is separated into layers, or contains a sub-
stance other than brake fluid. The system seals
and cups will also have to be replaced after flush-
ing. Use clean brake fluid to flush the system.
(4) Check parking brake operation. Verify free
movement and full release of cables and pedal. Also
note if vehicle was being operated with parking
brake partially applied.
(5) Check brake pedal operation. Verify that pedal
does not bind and has adequate free play. If pedal
lacks free play, check pedal and power booster for
being loose or for bind condition. Do not road test
until condition is corrected.
(6) Check booster vacuum check valve and hose.
(7) If components checked appear OK, road test
the vehicle.
ROAD TESTING
(1) If complaint involved low brake pedal, pump
pedal and note if it comes back up to normal height.
(2) Check brake pedal response with transmission
in Neutral and engine running. Pedal should remain
firm under constant foot pressure.

(2) Remove any burrs from the inside of the tube.
(3) Install tube nut on the tube.
(4) Position the tube in the flaring tool flush with
the top of the tool bar (Fig. 3). Then tighten the tool
bar on the tube.
(5) Install the correct size adaptor on the flaring
tool yoke screw.
(6) Lubricate the adaptor.
(7) Align the adaptor and yoke screw over the tube
(Fig. 3).
(8) Turn the yoke screw in until the adaptor is
squarely seated on the tool bar.
COMBINATION VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The combination valve contains a pressure differ-
ential valve and switch, metering valve and a rear
brake proportioning valve on 1500 and early
2500/3500 models with rear drum brakes. The combi-
nation valve/rear brake proportioning valve are not
repairable and must be replaced as an assembly.The pressure differential switch is connected to the
brake warning lamp.
The metering valve on the 1500 and early
2500/3500 models with rear drum brakes is used to
balance brake action between the front disc and rear
drum brakes.
The proportioning valve on the 1500 and early
2500/3500 models with rear drum brakes is used to
balance front-rear brake action at high decelerations.
OPERATION
PRESSURE DIFFERENTIAL SWITCH
The switch is triggered by movement of the switch
valve. The purpose of the switch is to monitor fluid
pressure in the separate front/rear brake hydraulic
circuits.
A decrease or loss of fluid pressure in either
hydraulic circuit will cause the switch valve to shut-
tle forward or rearward in response to the pressure
differential. Movement of the switch valve will push
the switch plunger upward. This closes the switch
internal contacts completing the electrical circuit to
the warning lamp. The switch valve may remain in
an actuated position until repair restores system
pressures to normal levels.
METERING VALVE (1500 Model)(and early
2500/3500 models with rear drum brakes)
The valve holds-off the initial pressure to the front
disc brakes until the rear brake shoes retracting
springs are overcome. The valve is designed to main-
tain front brake fluid pressure at 241-517 kPa (35-75
psi) until the hold-off limit of 310-689 kPa (100 psi)
is reached. At this point, the metering valve opens
completely permitting full fluid apply pressure to the
front disc brakes. This reduces front brake lining
wear during low deceleration stops.
PROPORTIONING VALVE (1500 Model)(and early
2500/3500 models with rear drum brakes)
The valve allows normal fluid flow during moder-
ate braking. The valve only controls fluid flow during
high decelerations brake stops, when a percentage of
rear weight is transferred to the front wheels.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMBINATION

OTHERS. FOLLOW ALL RECOMMENDED SAFETY
PRACTICES PRESCRIBED BY THE OCCUPATIONAL
SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION (OSHA)
AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY AGENCY
(EPA), FOR THE HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF
PRODUCTS CONTAINING ASBESTOS.
DIAGNOSTIC AND TESTING - CLUTCH
A road test and component inspection (Fig. 3) is
recommended to determine a clutch problem.
During a road test, drive the vehicle at normal
speeds. Shift the transmission through all gear
ranges and observe clutch action. If the clutch chat-
ters, grabs, slips or does not release properly, remove
and inspect the clutch components. If the problem is
noise or hard shifting, further diagnosis may be
needed as the transmission or another driveline com-
ponent may be at fault.
CLUTCH CONTAMINATION
Fluid contamination is a frequent cause of clutch
malfunctions. Oil, water or clutch fluid on the clutch
disc and pressure plate surfaces will cause chatter,
slip and grab.
During inspection, note if any components are con-
taminated with oil, hydraulic fluid or water/road
splash.

Two clutch covers are used for all applications. The
281 mm cover (Fig. 27) is used for 3.9L, 5.2L and
5.9L gas engine applications.
The 312.5 mm cover (Fig. 28) is used for 5.9L die-
sel and 8.0L gas engine applications.
OPERATION
The clutch pressure plate assembly clamps the
clutch disc against the flywheel. When the release
bearing is depressed by the shift fork, the pressure
exerted on the clutch disc by the pressure plate
spring is decreased. As additional force is applied,
the bearing presses the diaphragm spring fingers
inward on the fulcrums. This action moves the pres-
sure plate rearward relieving clamp force on the disc.
The clutch disc is disengaged and freewheeling at
this point.
FLYWHEEL
DESCRIPTION
The flywheel (Fig. 29) is a heavy plate bolted to the
rear of the crankshaft. The flywheel incorporates the
ring gear around the outer circumference to mesh
with the starter to permit engine cranking. The rear
face of the flywheel serves as the driving member to
the clutch disc.
OPERATION
The flywheel serves to dampen the engine firing
pulses. The heavy weight of the flywheel relative to
the rotating mass of the engine components serves to
stabilize the flow of power to the remainder of the
drivetrain. The crankshaft has the tendency to
attempt to speed up and slow down in response to
the cylinder firing pulses. The flywheel dampens
these impulses by absorbing energy when the crank-

the remaining major components in the standard and
optional factory-installed audio systems.
OPERATION
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of each of the available audio systems.
CENTRAL TIMER MODULE
The high-line or premium Central Timer Module
(CTM) can also control some features of the audio
system when the vehicle is equipped with the
optional RAZ radio receiver and remote radio
switches. A high-line CTM is used on high-line ver-
sions of this vehicle. A premium CTM is used on
vehicles equipped with the optional heated seats. The
CTM combines the functions of a chime/buzzer mod-
ule, an intermittent wipe module, an illuminated
entry module, a remote keyless entry module, and a
vehicle theft security system module in a single unit.
The high-line or premium CTM also controls and
integrates many of the additional electronic functions
and features included on models with this option.The RAZ radio receiver with a remote radio switch
option is one of the features that the CTM controls.
The CTM is programmed to send switch status mes-
sages over the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD)
data bus to control the volume, seek, and pre-set sta-
tion advance functions of the RAZ radio receiver. The
CTM monitors the status of the remote radio
switches located on the steering wheel through a
hard wired circuit. The CTM then sends the proper
switch status messages to the radio receiver. The
electronic circuitry within the radio receiver responds
to the switch status messages it receives by adjusting
the radio settings as requested.
Refer to Electrical, Body Control/Central Timer
Module for more information on the high-line CTM.
Refer to Remote Radio Switch in Description and
Operation for more information on this component.
In addition, radio receivers connected to the CCD
data bus have several audio system functions that
can be diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to

REMOTE SWITCHES
DESCRIPTION
A remote radio switch option is available on models
equipped with the AM/FM/CD/cassette/3-band
graphic equalizer (RAZ sales code) radio receiver and
the high-line Central Timer Module (CTM). Refer to
Electrical, Body Control/Central Timer Module for
more information on this component.
Two rocker-type switches (Fig. 15) are mounted in
the sides of the rear (instrument panel side) steeringwheel trim cover. The switch on the left side is the
seek switch and has seek up, seek down, and preset
station advance functions. The switch on the right
side is the volume control switch and has volume up,
and volume down functions. The two switches are
retained in mounting holes located on each side of
the rear steering wheel trim cover by four latches
that are integral to the switches.
The remote radio switches share a common steer-
ing wheel wire harness with the vehicle speed control
switches. The steering wheel wire harness is con-
nected to the instrument panel wire harness through
the clockspring. Refer to Electrical, Clockspring for
more information on this component.
OPERATION
The remote radio switches are resistor multiplexed
units that are hard wired to the high-line or pre-
mium CTM through the clockspring. The CTM mon-
itors the status of the remote radio switches and
sends the proper switch status messages on the
Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus network
to the radio receiver. The electronic circuitry within
the radio is programmed to respond to these remote
radio switch status messages by adjusting the radio
settings as requested.
For diagnosis of the CTM or the CCD data bus, the
use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic
Procedures manual are recommended. For more
information on the features and control functions for
each of the remote radio switches, see the owner's

external connector receptacles that connect it to the
vehicle electrical system through one (base) or two
(high-line/premium) take outs with connectors from
the instrument panel wire harness.
The base version of the CTM is used on base mod-
els of this vehicle. It is also sometimes referred to as
the Integrated Electronic Module (IEM). The base
version of the CTM combines the functions of a
chime module and an intermittent wipe module in a
single unit. The high-line version of the CTM is used
on high-line vehicles. The high-line CTM provides all
of the functions of the base version of the CTM, but
also is used to control and integrate many additional
electronic functions and features included on high-
line models. The premium version of the CTM is the
same as the high-line version, but is used only on
models equipped with the heated seat option.
The high-line and premium versions of the CTM
utilize integrated circuitry and information carried
on the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus
network along with many hard wired inputs to mon-
itor many sensor and switch inputs throughout the
vehicle. In response to those inputs, the internal cir-
cuitry and programming of the CTM allow it to con-
trol and integrate many electronic functions and
features of the vehicle through both hard wired out-
puts and the transmission of electronic message out-
puts to other electronic modules in the vehicle over
the CCD data bus.
The features that the CTM supports or controls
include the following:
²Automatic Door Lock- The high-line/premium
CTM provides an optional automatic door lock fea-
ture (also known as rolling door locks). This is a pro-
grammable feature.

The high-line/premium CTM provides the speed sen-
sitive intermittent wipe feature.
²Vehicle Theft Alarm- The high-line/premium
CTM provides control of the optional Vehicle Theft
Alarm features, including support for the central
locking/unlocking mode.
Hard wired circuitry connects the CTM to the elec-
trical system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits
are integral to several wire harnesses, which are
routed throughout the vehicle and retained by many
different methods. These circuits may be connected to
each other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
CTM through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
All versions of the CTM for this model are serviced
only as a complete unit. Many of the electronic fea-
tures in the vehicle controlled or supported by the
high-line or premium versions of the CTM are pro-
grammable using the DRBIIItscan tool. In addition,
the high-line/premium CTM software is Flash com-
patible, which means it can be reprogrammed using
Flash reprogramming procedures. However, if any of
the CTM hardware components are damaged or
faulty, the entire CTM unit must be replaced. The
