The vehicle has four flexible steel parking brake
cables. They are:
²Front
²Intermediate
²Left rear
²Right rear
The front parking brake cable extends from the
parking brake lever. A steel equalizer bracket con-
nects the front parking brake cable to the left rear
and intermediate cable. The intermediate cable is
connected to the right rear cable using a parking
brake cable connector.
On vehicles equipped with rear drum brakes, the
rear service brakes also act as the vehicle's parking
brakes.
Vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes use a
small duo-servo brake assembly mounted to the each
rear disc brake caliper adapter as the parking brake.
The inside of the brake rotor (hat section of drum-in-
hat style brake rotor) is used as the parking brake
drum.
DESCRIPTION - EXPORT
The parking brake system on this vehicle features
a hand-operated parking brake lever. The lever is
located between the two front seats and requires a
special front cable.
OPERATION
The automatic-adjusting feature in the foot oper-
ated parking brake lever continuously applies mini-
mal tension to the parking brake cables when the
parking brake lever is in the released position to
keep them in adjustment at all times. Due to this
feature, the parking brake cables require no periodic
adjustment.
When the parking brake lever is applied, the
cables are pulled, thus applying the brake shoes
(rear drum brakes) or parking brake shoes (rear disc
brakes) at each rear wheel.
The brake shoes are mechanically operated by an
internal lever and strut connected to the rear park-
ing brake cables.
An equalizer bracket is used at the rear end of the
front parking brake cable to distribute tension
equally to each parking brake cable.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - PARKING BRAKE
AUTOMATIC ADJUSTER TENSION RELEASE
The parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism used
in this vehicle is designed so that the automatic
adjuster is not required to be locked out when servic-ing the parking brake lever (pedal) or the parking
brake cables.
This parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism is
designed so that the adjuster mechanism will rotate
only half a turn when the tension is released from
the parking brake cable. This eliminates the require-
ment to lock out the automatic adjuster when servic-
ing the parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism and
cables.
Use the following procedure to release the tension
from the parking brake cables and the automatic
adjuster in the parking brake lever (pedal) mecha-
nism.
(1) Grasp the exposed section of the front parking
brake cable and pull rearward on it. While holding
the park brake in this position, install a pair of lock-
ing pliers on the front parking brake cable just rear-
ward of the second body outrigger bracket (Fig. 106).
(2) Remove the left rear and intermediate parking
brake cables from the parking brake cable equalizer
(Fig. 107).
(3) Remove the equalizer from the front parking
brake cable.
(4) Remove the locking pliers from the front park-
ing brake cable. This will allow the adjuster in the
parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism to rotate
around to its stop. This will remove the tension from
the adjuster and front park brake cable (Refer to 5 -
BRAKES/PARKING BRAKE - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE).

HEATED SEAT MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with heated seats utilize two
heated seat modules. The heated seat modules (Fig.
8) are located under the front seats, where they are
secured to the seat cushion pans. The left heated
seat module controls the left heated seat, and the
right controls the right. Each heated seat module has
three connector receptacles that allows the module to
be connected to all of the required inputs and out-
puts through the seat wire harness.The heated seat module is an electronic micropro-
cessor controlled device designed and programmed to
use inputs from the ignition switch, heated seat
switch and the heated seat sensor to operate and
control the heated seat elements in the front seat
and the two heated seat indicator lamp Light-Emit-
ting Diodes (LEDs) in the heated seat switch.
The heated seat module cannot be repaired. If the
heated seat module is damaged or faulty, the entire
module must be replaced.
OPERATION
The heated seat module operates on fused battery
current received from the ignition switch and inte-
grated power module. The module is grounded at all
times through the seat wire harness. Inputs to the
module include a resistor multiplexed heated seat
switch request circuit for the heated seat switch and
the heated seat sensor inputs from the seat cushions
of each front seat. In response to those inputs the
heated seat module controls battery current feeds to
the heated seat elements, and controls the ground for
the heated seat switch indicator lamps.
When a heated seat switch request signal is
received by the heated seat module, the module ener-
gizes the proper indicator lamp (Low or High) in the
switch by grounding the indicator lamp circuit to
indicate that the heated seat system is operating. At
the same time, the heated seat module energizes the
selected heated seat sensor circuit and the sensor
provides the module with an input indicating the
surface temperature of the selected seat cushion.
The Low heat set point is about 38É C (100.4É F),
and the High heat set point is about 42É C (107.6É F).
If the seat cushion surface temperature input is
below the temperature set point for the selected tem-
perature setting, the heated seat module energizes
an N-channel Field Effect Transistor (N-FET) within
the module which energizes the heated seat elements
in the selected seat cushion and back. When the sen-
sor input to the module indicates the correct temper-
ature set point has been achieved, the module
de-energizes the N-FET which de-energizes the
heated seat elements. The heated seat module will
continue to cycle the N-FET as needed to maintain
the selected temperature set point.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
MODULE
If a heated seat fails to heat and one or both of the
indicator lamps on a heated seat switch flash, refer
toDiagnosis and Testing Heated Seat Systemin

POWER LIFTGATE MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power liftgate (PLG) uti-
lize a PLG control module. This module is located on
the vehicles left side D-pillar just below the motorassembly (Fig. 9) and contains a microprocessor,
which is used to communicate to the vehicles body
control module. The PLG control module receives and
monitors logic inputs from all the PLG system
switches except for the outside handle switch. This
module also contains the software technology to
detect liftgate obstructions and stop and / or reverse
the door accordingly.
OPERATION
The PLG control module contains the electronic cir-
cuitry and software used to control the sequence of
events for the PLG system. This module comunicates
on the PCI bus circuit with the vehicles body control
module to monitor many different inputs and outputs
such as door lock status, transmission gear selector
position and vehicle speed. Refer to PLG system
operation for more information.

MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory seat/mirror
option, utilize a memory module located under the
drivers front seat. This module is basically wired in-
line between the power seat switch and the power
seat track/adjuster motors, or in-line between the
power mirror switch and the power side view mir-
ror(s) motor(s). The MSMM contains a central pro-
cessing unit that communicates with other modules
on the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
hard wired inputs from the driver power seat switch
and the potentiometers on each of the driver side
power seat track motors, or from the power mirror
switch and the potentiometers on the side view mir-
ror. The MSMM receives messages over the PCI data
bus from the Body Control Module (BCM) (memory
switch status), the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
(vehicle speed status). The MSMM will prevent the
seat memory recall function from being initiated if
the driver side seat belt is buckled, if the transmis-
sion gear selector lever is not in the Park or Neutral
positions, or if the vehicle is moving.
For diagnosis of the MSMM or the PCI data bus, a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual are recommended. The MSMM cannot
be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced. Refer toMemory Systemin the Power
Seat or Power Mirror section of this manual for more
information on the memory system option.
OPERATION
When memory system operation is requested
(depressing of the memory switch), a resistor multi-
plexed signal is sent from the memory switch to the
body control module (BCM). The body control module
will then send the appropriate signals out to the
memory/mirror seat module, the memory/mirror seat
module then applies the voltage supply to the power
seat track or side-view mirror if the proper require-
ments are met. The vehicle speed must equal zero
and the transmission must be in park or neutral in
order for the memory system to function.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY
SEAT/MIRROR MODULE
Visually inspect the related wiring harness connec-
tors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded
terminals. If any of the above conditions are present,

SLIDING DOOR CONTROL
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power sliding door utilize
a sliding door control module. The sliding door con-
trol module is located behind the sliding door trim
panel in the center of the door, just above the sliding
door motor (Fig. 20). This module controls the opera-
tion of the door through the Programmable Commu-
nication Interface (PCI) J1850 data bus circuit and
the Body Control Module. The sliding door control
module contains software technology which enables it
to detect resistance to door travel and to reverse door
travel in order to avoid damage to the door or to
avoid possible personal injury if the obstruction is a
person. This feature functions in both the opening
and closing cycles. If the power sliding door system
develops any problems the control module will store

²Heated Seat Switch- Two heated seat
switches are used per vehicle, one for the driver and
one for the passenger side front seats. The switches
are mounted to in the instrument panel center stack.
Refer to the description of the heated seat switch
later in this section for additional information.
Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat sys-
tem components to each other through the electrical
system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are
integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed
throughout the vehicle and retained by many differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
heated seat system components through the use of a
combination of soldered splices and splice block con-
nectors. Refer to Wiring for complete system wiring
schematics. The wiring information also includes the
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.
OPERATION
The heated seat system components operate on
battery current received through a fuse in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) on a fused ignition
switch output (run-acc) circuit so that the system willonly operate when the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessory positions. The heated seat system will be
turned Off automatically whenever the ignition
switch is turned to any position except On or Acces-
sory. Also, the heated seat system will not operate
when the surface temperature of the seat cushion
cover at either heated seat sensor is above the
designed temperature set points of the system. The
heated seat system has a self-diagnostic capability.
When certain failures are detected within the heated
seat system, the system will provide a visual indica-
tion of the failure by flashing the Light Emitting
Diode (LED) indicator lamps located in the heated
seat switches. See the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box for more information on the features, use
and operation of the heated seat system.
