REMOVAL
(1) Raise vehicle. (Refer to LUBRICATION &
MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE)
CAUTION: When disconnecting speed sensor cable
from vehicle wiring harness be careful not to dam-
age pins on the electrical connectors. Also, inspect
connectors for any signs of previous damage.(2) Remove grommet from floor pan of vehicle and
disconnect speed sensor cable connector from vehicle
wiring harness.
CAUTION: When removing rear wheel speed sensor
cable from routing clips, be sure not to damage the
routing clips. Routing clips that are molded onto
the brake hose will require replacement of the brake
hose if damaged during removal or installation of
the speed sensor cable.
(3) Carefully remove speed sensor cable from
press-in routing clips along brake hose and tubing.
(4) Remove bolt securing wheel speed sensor cable
metal clip to rear of axle. Remove metal clip from
cable if necessary.
CAUTION: If speed sensor head has seized due to
corrosion, do not use pliers on speed sensor head
in an attempt to remove it. Use a hammer and a
punch and tap mounting flange edge side-to-side,
rocking the sensor until free.
(5) Remove wheel speed sensor head attaching
bolt.
(6) Remove wheel speed sensor head from the axle,
and remove sensor from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Proper installation of wheel speed sen-
sor cables is critical to continued system operation.
Be sure that cables are installed in retainers. Fail-
ure to install cables in retainers as indicated may
result in contact with moving parts or over-exten-
sion of cables, resulting in an open circuit.
(1) Install wheel speed sensor head in axle flange.
CAUTION: Prior to installing the speed sensor head
attaching bolt, the plastic anti-rotation pin must be
fully seated into the bearing flange.
(2) Install wheel speed sensor head attaching bolt.
Tighten bolt to a torque 10 N´m (90 in. lbs.).
(3) Check the air gap between the face of the
wheel speed sensor and the top surface of the tone
wheel. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - SPECIFICATIONS)
CAUTION: When installing wheel speed sensor
cable in the routing clips on rear brake flex hose,
be sure not to damage the routing clips. Routing
clips are molded onto the hose and will require
replacement of the brake hose if damaged.
(4) Install speed sensor cable under leaf spring
onto brake hose and tubing utilizing routing clips to
secure it in place.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DRIVE PLATE
MISALIGNMENT
Common causes of misalignment are:
²Heat warping
²Mounting drive plate on a dirty crankshaft
flange
²Incorrect bolt tightening
²Improper seating on the crankshaft shoulder²Loose crankshaft bolts
Clean the crankshaft flange before mounting the
drive plate. Dirt and grease on the flange surface
may misalign the flywheel, causing excessive runout.
Use new bolts when mounting drive plate to crank-
shaft. Tighten drive plate bolts to specified torque
only. Over-tightening can distort the drive plate hub
causing excessive runout.

KNOCK SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The knock sensor threads into the cylinder block.
The knock sensor is designed to detect engine vibra-
tion that is caused by detonation.
OPERATION
When the knock sensor detects a knock in one of
the cylinders, it sends an input signal to the PCM. In
response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cyl-
inders by a scheduled amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material
which constantly vibrates and sends an input voltage
(signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the
intensity of the crystal's vibration increases, the
knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor
increases with the amplitude of vibration. The PCM
receives as an input the knock sensor voltage signal.
If the signal rises above a predetermined level, the
PCM will store that value in memory and retard
ignition timing to reduce engine knock. If the knock
sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM
retards ignition timing for all cylinders. It is not a
selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine
idle conditions. Once the engine speed exceeds a
specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long
term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation
information in its battery-backed RAM. The maxi-
mum authority that long term memory has over tim-
ing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up
to a preset amount under all operating conditions (aslong as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except WOT.
The PCM, using short term memory, can respond
quickly to retard timing when engine knock is
detected. Short term memory is lost any time the
ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening affects knock sen-
sor performance, possibly causing improper spark
control.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT
CONTROLLER
DESCRIPTION
The front driver and passenger airbag system is
designed to reduce the risk of fatality or serious
injury, caused by a frontal impact of the vehicle.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains
the impact sensor and energy reserve capacitor. It is
mounted on a bracket, under the instrument panel,just forward of the storage bin. The ORC monitors
the system to determine the system readiness. The
ORC contains on-board diagnostics and will light the
AIRBAG warning lamp in the message center when a
problem occurs.
OPERATION
The impact sensor provides verification of the
direction and severity of the impact. One impact sen-
sor is used. It is located inside the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC). The impact sensor is an
accelerometer that senses deceleration. The decelera-
tion pulses are sent to a microprocessor which con-
tains a decision algorithm. When an impact is severe
enough to require airbag protection, the ORC micro-
processor sends a signal that completes the electrical
circuit to the driver and passenger airbags. The
impact sensor is calibrated for the specific vehicle
and reacts to the severity and direction of an impact.
REMOVAL
NOTE: Diagnose the ORC using the service/diag-
nostic manual.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove storage bin from instrument panel.
Refer to Body, Instrument Panel, Storage Bin,
Removal.
(3) Remove three bolts holding ORC to floor
bracket.
(4) Disconnect the wire connector from ORC.
(5) Remove the ORC assembly from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL ORC IF MOUNTING
LOCATION IS DEFORMED OR DAMAGED.
CAUTION: Use correct screws when installing the
ORC.
(1) Install the ORC assembly into vehicle.
(2) Connect the wire connector to the ORC.
(3) Install three bolts holding ORC to floor
bracket. Torque bolts to 7.3 - 9.6 N´m (65 to 85 in.
lbs.)
(4) Install the storage bin onto the instrument
panel. Refer to Body, Instrument Panel, Storage Bin,
Installation.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY NEG-
ATIVE CABLE. REFER TO ELECTRICAL,
RESTRAINTS, DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AIRBAG
SYSTEM FIRST.
