2002 CHRYSLER CARAVAN ECO mode

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
The key fob transmitter (Fig. 1) has six buttons.
Three of them, LOCK, UNLOCK, and PANIC, are
used to actuate parts of, and program the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) system via the customer pro-
gramming mode. It is not necessary to use the
PANIC button with the DRB IIItscan tool mode of
programming.
OPERATION
POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. The BCM locks the doors auto-
matically when the vehicle is driven beyond the
speed of 25.7 Km/h (16 mph). The rolling door lock
feature can be disabled if desired. All doors and lift-
gate can be locked or unlocked using mechanical but-
ton or key cylinder methods (Liftgate cylinder does
not lock/unlock vehicle. It only unlocks the liftgate).
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
The BCM is equipped with a disable feature to
stop the speed sensitive automatic door locks from
functioning. The DISABLE feature can be switched
ON or OFF as desired. When the system is DIS-
ABLED the door locks will operate normally, but will
not lock automatically when the vehicle is rolling.
When the door locks are ENABLED the door locks
will automatically lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (16 mph). All doors are closed, the
PCM has set the ªOK TO LOCKº bit, and doors were
not previously locked.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, all power door lock function-
ing shall be disabled when activating either door lock
switch. Also, if the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) is
armed, the door lock switch ªUNLOCKº feature will
be disabled until the vehicle is disarmed. Pressing
the RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions
will result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
CENTRAL LOCKING
If equipped with Vehicle Theft Security System
(VTSS), all the doors can be locked with the key by
using any of the door lock cylinders. Turning the key
to the LOCK position will lock all the doors.
When either of the front key cylinder switches is
detected active, the BCM will activate the illumi-
nated entry feature and the individual front doors
will become mechanically unlocked. To central unlock
all doors, a second transition from OFF to UNLOCK
has to occur within 2 seconds of the first complete
UNLOCK cycle.
To central unlock the driver door, turn the key to
the rear of the vehicle. This indicates an unlock sig-
nal to the BCM. For the passenger door, turn the key
toward the front of the vehicle. When either key cyl-
inder switch is detected as active, the BCM will acti-
vate the illuminated entry feature. The individual
doors will become mechanically unlocked.
To central lock the vehicle, the driver door lock cyl-
inder is turned toward the front of the vehicle. The
passenger door lock cylinder is turned toward the
rear of the vehicle. When a lock input from either
key cylinder is detected as active, the BCM will can-
cel the illuminated entry feature and perform the
central lock operation.

AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT
MIRROR
DESCRIPTION
An automatic dimming inside day/night rear view
mirror and an automatic dimming driver side outside
rear view mirror are available factory-installed
options on this model. Following is a general descrip-
tion of this optional equipment.
The automatic day/night mirror is able to automat-
ically change its reflectance. A thin layer of electro-
chromic material between two pieces of conductiveglass make up the face of the mirror. Two photocell
sensors are used to monitor light levels and adjust
the reflectance of the mirror to reduce the glare of
headlamps approaching the vehicle from the rear.
For removal procedures, (Refer to 23 - BODY/IN-
TERIOR/REAR VIEW MIRROR - REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The ambient photocell sensor faces forward, to
detect the outside light levels. A second sensor faces
rearward to detect the light level received through
the vehicles back window. When the difference
between the two light levels becomes too great (the
light level received at the rear of the mirror is much
higher than that at the front of the mirror), the mir-
ror begins to darken.

MEMORY SET SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory system have a
memory switch mounted to the driver side front door
trim panel (Fig. 5). This switch is used to set and
recall all of the memory system settings for up to two
drivers. The memory switch is a resistor multiplexed
unit that is hard wired to the Body Control Module
(BCM). The BCM sends out the memory system set
and recall requests to the other electronic modules
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus.
The memory switch cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring Dia-
grams.
OPERATION
The memory switch has three momentary switch
buttons labeled Set, 1 and 2. The Driver 1 and Driver
2 buttons are back-lit with Light-Emitting Diodes
(LED) for visibility. When the memory set switch is
depressed, a resistance value is sent to the Body
Control Module via hard wired connections. When
the memory system is in ªsetº mode a chime will be
generated by the body control module.

PASSENGER AIRBAG
DESCRIPTION
WARNING: NEVER DISASSEMBLE THE PASSEN-
GER AIRBAG, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS NO
SERVICEABLE PARTS.
The Passenger Airbag is located beneath the
instrument panel and pad assembly. The airbag is
mounted to the back side of the instrument panel
reinforcement.
The instrument panel top pad is the most visible
part of the passenger airbag system. Located under
the instrument panel top pad are the airbag door, the
passenger airbag cushion and the airbag cushion
supporting components.
The passenger airbag includes a magnesium hous-
ing within which the cushion and inflator are
mounted and sealed.
Following a passenger airbag deployment, the pas-
senger airbag and the instrument panel must be
replaced. The passenger airbag cannot be repaired,
and must be replaced if deployed or damaged in any
way.
OPERATION
The passenger airbag is equipped with two infla-
tors, each with three levels of pressure output. The
inflators seal the hole in the airbag cushion so it can
discharge the gas it produces directly into the cush-
ion when supplied with the proper electrical signal.
Following an airbag deployment, the airbag cushion
quickly deflates by venting this gas through the
cushion material towards the instrument panel.
The passenger airbag is secured with screws to the
instrument panel beneath the instrument panel top
pad and above the glove box opening. The instrument
panel top pad above the glove box opening conceals
the airbag door and a predetermined hinge line
beneath its decorative cover. Upon airbag deploy-
ment, the top pad will bend at the hinge line and the
door will fold back out of the way onto the top of the
instrument panel.
When the front airbag system is deployed, the fol-
lowingMUSTbe replaced:
²Complete Steering Column Assembly.
²Lower Steering Column Coupler.
²Steering Wheel.
²Clock Spring.
²Driver Airbag.
²Passenger Airbag.
²Upper Instrument Panel with Pad.

NOTE: Turning the system off by depressing the
OFF switch or turning off the ignition switch will
erase the set speed stored in the PCM.
For added safety, the speed control system is pro-
grammed to disengage for any of the following condi-
tions:
²An indication of Park or Neutral
²A rapid increase rpm (indicates that the clutch
has been disengaged)
²Excessive engine rpm (indicates that the trans-
mission may be in a low gear)
²The speed signal increases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the co-efficient of friction
between the road surface and tires is extremely low)
²The speed signal decreases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the vehicle may have
decelerated at an extremely high rate)
²If the actual speed is greater than 20 mph over
the set speed.
²Autostick shifts into 1st or 2nd gear (autostick,
if equipped)
Once the speed control has been disengaged,
depressing the RESUME switch when speed is
greater than 20 mph allows the vehicle to resume
control to the target speed that was stored in the
PCM.
While the speed control is engaged, the driver can
increase the vehicle speed by depressing the ACCEL
switch. The new target speed is stored in the PCM
when the ACCEL switch is released. The PCM also
has a9tap-up9feature in which target speed
increases by 2 mph for each momentary switch acti-
vation of the ACCEL switch. The PCM also provides
a means to decelerate to a new lower target speed
without disengaging speed control. Depress and hold
the COAST switch until the desired speed is reached,
then release the switch.
The PCM also has a ªTap Downº feature in which
target speed decreases at 1 mph for each momentary
switch activation of the coast switch.
OPERATION - INTERACTIVE SPEED CONTROL
(4 Speed EATX Only)
Interactive means that communication between the
PCM and the TCM is taking place. Interactive speed
control avoids unnecessary shifting for smoother, qui-
eter operation and when downshifts are required,
makes the shifts smoother.
CLIMBING A GRADE
DESCRIPTION
When climbing a grade the interactive speed con-
trol tries to maintain the set speed by increasing thethrottle opening, while inhibiting/delaying down-
shifts.
OPERATION
If opening the throttle alone cannot maintain the
set speed and the vehicle speed drops more than
three mph below the set speed, the transmission will
downshift to third gear. If the vehicle continues to
lose speed, by more than 6 mph, the transmission
will downshift again to maintain the set speed. After
the vehicle encounters a less-steep grade, or has
crested the grade (reduced the load on the power-
train) and can maintain the set speed at a reduced
throttle position, the transmission will upshift, as
appropriate, until the set speed can be maintained in
Overdrive.
GRADE HUNTING
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles equipped with a four speed automatic
transmission have a grade hunting feature for the
2nd to 3rd gear upshift and the 3rd to Overdrive
upshift.
OPERATION
The TCM identifies the powertrain loading condi-
tions and selects the proper gear to maintain the cur-
rent vehicle speed. Under moderate loading
conditions the transaxle will stay in 3rd gear until
the top of the grade is reached or the powertrain
loading is reduced.
If powertrain loading is severe, the transaxle may
shift into 2nd gear and remain there until power-
train loading is reduced, then a 2nd to 3rd gear
upshift will be scheduled. Grade hunting features
always operate regardless of whether or not the
interactive speed control is engaged.If the interac-
tive speed control is not engaged and power-
train loading is not reduced, the driver may
have to completely lift off of the throttle before
an upshift will occur. If the driver does lift off the
throttle to induce an upshift under these conditions,
vehicle speed will reduce and the Overdrive to 3rd
and 3rd to 2nd gear downshifts will reoccur when the
throttle is reapplied. If grade hunting is repeatedly
induced by the driver, transaxle damage may result.
AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL OVERSPEED
REDUCTION
DESCRIPTION
Transmission control software includes an auto-
matic speed control overspeed reduction feature. This
maintains vehicle speed at the selected set point
when descending a grade.

SKIM in addition to being cut to match the mechan-
ical coding of the ignition lock cylinder. Refer to Elec-
trical, Vehicle Theft Security, Transponder Key,
Standard Procedure - Transponder Programming.
The Sentry Key's transponder is within the range
of the SKIM's transceiver antenna ring when it is
inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. When the
ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the
SKIM communicates with the Sentry Key via a radio
frequency (RF) signal. The SKIM determines if a
valid key is present based on the information it
receives from the Sentry Key. If a valid key is
detected, that fact is communicated to the PCM via
the PCI bus and the vehicle is allowed to continue
running. If an invalid key is received by the PCM or
no status at all is communicated, the vehicle will
stall after two (2) seconds of running. The indicator
light will be flashing at this point. The Sentry Key's
transponder can not be repaired. If it is faulty or
damaged, it must be replaced.
Common communication problems:
²Two transponder keys too close together.
²Speed Pass too close to transponder key.
Solid indicator that there is a system failure.
²Loss of PCM communication.
²Failed antenna circuit.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TRANSPONDER
PROGRAMMING
USING A DRB IIITSCAN TOOL
All Sentry Keys included with the vehicle are pre-
programmed to work with the Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer System (SKIS) when it is shipped from the
factory. The Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
can be programmed to recognize up to a total of eight
Sentry Keys. When programming a blank Sentry Key
transponder, the key must first be cut to match the
ignition lock cylinder of the vehicle for which it will
be used. The vehicle's four digit PIN code will be
required to complete this task since you will need it
to enter the Secured Access Mode in the SKIM. The
following steps must be completed using a DRB IIIt
scan tool:
(1) Insert the blank key into the ignition and turn
it to the RUN position.
(2) Using a DRB IIItscan tool, select9Theft

(3) Enter the four digit PIN code using the DRB
IIItscan tool. When programming is completed, the
SKIM will exit Secured Access Mode and the DRB
IIItscan tool will display the results of your attempt
to program the key. One of five distinct results may
be displayed. All five are listed below:
²(Programming Successful(is displayed if the
Sentry Key programming is successful.
²(Learned Key in Ignition(is displayed if the
key in the ignition has already been programmed
