OPERATION
The filter, choke, and speaker relay unit is used to
control the supply of fused battery current to the
front door speaker-mounted dual amplifiers. The
speaker relay is energized by a fused 12 volt output
from the radio receiver whenever the radio is turned
on. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate wiring information. The wiring information
includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector
repair procedures, details of wire harness routing
and retention, connector pin-out information and
location views for the various wire harness connec-
tors, splices and grounds.

DESCRIPTION
Available factory-installed radio receivers for this
model include an AM/FM/cassette (RAS sales code),
an AM/FM/CD/3-band graphic equalizer (RBR sales
code), or an AM/FM/CD/cassette/3-band graphic
equalizer (RAZ sales code). The factory-installed RAZ
sales code radio receivers can also communicate on
the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus net-
work through a separate two-way wire harness con-
nector. All factory-installed receivers are stereo
Electronically Tuned Radios (ETR) and include an
electronic digital clock function.
These radio receivers can only be serviced by an
authorized radio repair station. See the latest War-
ranty Policies and Procedures manual for a current
listing of authorized radio repair stations.
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed when the vehicle is
shipped from the factory. This fuse feeds various
accessories that require battery current when the
ignition switch is in the Off position, including the
clock. The IOD fuse is removed to prevent battery
discharge during vehicle storage.
When removing or installing the IOD fuse, it is
important that the ignition switch be in the Off posi-
tion. Failure to place the ignition switch in the Off
position can cause the radio display to become scram-
bled when the IOD fuse is removed and replaced.
Removing and replacing the IOD fuse again, with the
ignition switch in the Off position, will correct the
scrambled display condition.
The IOD fuse should be checked if the radio or
clock displays are inoperative. The IOD fuse is
located in the junction block. Refer to the fuse layout
label on the back of the instrument panel fuse access
panel for IOD fuse identification and location.
OPERATION
The radio receiver operates on fused battery cur-
rent that is available only when the ignition switch is
in the On or Accessory positions. The electronic digi-
tal clock function of the radio operates on fused bat-
tery current supplied through the IOD fuse,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
For more information on the features, setting pro-
cedures, and control functions for each of the avail-
able factory-installed radio receivers, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box. For complete circuit
diagrams, refer to the appropriate wiring informa-
tion. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,

more information on this component.
Two rocker-type switches (Fig. 15) are mounted in
the sides of the rear (instrument panel side) steering
wheel 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 DiagnosticProcedures manual are recommended. For more
information on the features and control functions for
each of the remote radio switches, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box. For complete circuit

WARNING SYSTEM.....................2
CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
A chime warning system is standard factory-in-
stalled equipment on this model. The chime warning
system uses a single chime tone generator that is
integral to the Central Timer Module (CTM) to pro-
vide an audible indication of various vehicle condi-
tions that may require the attention of the vehicle
operator. The chime warning system includes the fol-
lowing major components, which are described in fur-
ther detail elsewhere in this service manual:
²Central Timer Module- The Central Timer
Module (CTM) is located under the driver side end of
the instrument panel, inboard of the instrument
panel steering column opening. The CTM contains an
integral chime tone generator to provide all of the
proper chime warning system features based upon
the monitored inputs.
²Door Ajar Switch- A door ajar switch is inte-
gral to the driver side front door latch. This switch
provides an input to the chime warning system indi-
cating whether the driver side front door is open or
closed.
²Headlamp Switch- The headlamp switch is
located on the instrument panel outboard of the
steering column. The headlamp switch provides an
input to the chime warning system indicating when
the exterior lamps are turned On or Off.
²Ignition Switch- A key-in ignition switch is
integral to the ignition switch. The key-in ignition
switch provides an input to the chime warning sys-
tem indicating whether a key is present in the igni-
tion lock cylinder.
²Seat Belt Switch- A seat belt switch is inte-
gral to the driver side front seat belt buckle unit. The
seat belt switch provides an input to the chime warn-
ing system indicating whether the driver side front
seat belt is fastened.
Hard wired circuitry connects many of the chime
warning system 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 bymany different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system
and to the chime warning system components
through the use of a combination of soldered splices,
splice block connectors, and many different types of
wire harness terminal connectors and insulators.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.
The CTM chime warning system circuitry and the
integral chime tone generator cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If the CTM or the chime tone generator are
damaged or faulty, the CTM unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The chime warning system is designed to provide an
audible output as an indication of various conditions
that may require the attention or awareness of the
vehicle operator. The chime warning system compo-
nents operate on battery current received through a
fused B(+) fuse in the Junction Block (JB) on a non-
switched fused B(+) circuit so that the system may
operate regardless of the ignition switch position.
The chime warning system provides an audible
indication to the vehicle operator under the following
conditions:
²Fasten Seat Belt Warning- The Central
Timer Module (CTM) chime tone generator will gen-
erate repetitive chime tones at a slow rate to
announce that a hard wired input from the seat belt
switch to the Electro-Mechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) indicates that the driver side front seat belt
is not fastened with the ignition switch in the On
position. Unless the driver side front seat belt is fas-
tened, the chimes will continue to sound for a dura-
tion of about seven seconds each time the ignition
switch is turned to the On position or until the driver
side front seat belt is fastened, whichever occurs
first. This chime tone is based upon a hard wired
chime request input to the CTM from the EMIC, but
is not related to the operation of the EMIC ªSeatbeltº
indicator.
BR/BECHIME/BUZZER 8B - 1
²Head/Park Lights-On Warning- The CTM
chime tone generator will generate repetitive chime
tones at a fast rate to announce that hard wired
inputs from the driver door ajar switch, headlamp
switch, and ignition switch indicate that the exterior
lamps are turned On with the driver side front door
opened and the ignition switch in the Off position.
The chimes will continue to sound until the exterior
lamps are turned Off, the driver side front door is
closed, or the ignition switch is turned to the On
position, whichever occurs first.
²Key-In-Ignition Warning- The CTM chime
tone generator will generate repetitive chime tones at
a fast rate to announce that hard wired inputs from
the driver door ajar switch, headlamp switch, and
ignition switch indicate that the key is in the ignition
lock cylinder with the driver side front door opened
and the ignition switch in the Off position. The
chimes will continue to sound until the key is
removed from the ignition lock cylinder, the driver
side front door is closed, or the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, whichever occurs first.
²Warning Chime Support- The CTM chime
tone generator will generate repetitive chime tones at
a slow rate to announce that a hard wired chime
request input has been received from the EMIC.
These chime tones provide an audible alert to the
vehicle operator that supplements certain visual indi-
cations displayed by the EMIC. Supplemented indica-
tions include the following:
²The ªAirbagº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
four seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªCheck Gagesº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªLow Fuelº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªLow Washº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªTrans Tempº indicator is illuminated (auto-
matic transmission only). The chimes will continue to
sound for a duration of about two seconds each time
the indicator is illuminated or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.²The vehicle is over a programmed speed value
(Middle East Gulf Coast Country (GCC) only). The
CTM chime tone generator will generate repetitive
chime tones at a slow rate to announce that the vehi-
cle speed exceeds a programmed value. The chimes
will continue to sound until the vehicle speed is
below the programmed value.
²The ªWater-In-Fuelº indicator is illuminated
(diesel engine only). The chimes will continue to
sound for a duration of about two seconds each time
the indicator is illuminated or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
The CTM provides chime service for all available
features in the chime warning system. The CTM
relies upon hard wired inputs from the driver door
ajar switch, the EMIC, the headlamp switch, and the
key-in ignition switch (ignition switch) to provide
chime service for all of the chime warning system
features. Upon receiving the proper inputs, the CTM
activates the integral chime tone generator to pro-
vide the audible chime tone to the vehicle operator.
The chime tone generator in the CTM is capable of
producing repeated chime tones at two different
rates, slow or fast. The slow chime rate is about fifty
chime tones per minute, while the fast chime rate is
about 180 chime tones per minute. The internal pro-
gramming of the CTM and the EMIC determines the
priority of each chime tone request input that is
received, as well as the rate and duration of each
chime tone that is to be generated.
The hard wired chime warning system inputs to
the CTM and the EMIC, as well as other hard wired
circuits for this system may be diagnosed and tested
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features provided by the
chime warning system.

CENTRAL TIMER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Three versions of the Central Timer Module (CTM)
are available on this vehicle, a base version (Fig. 1),
a high-line version (Fig. 2), and a premium version.
Whichever version of the CTM the vehicle is
equipped with, it is concealed under the driver side
end of the instrument panel inboard of the instru-
ment panel steering column opening, where it is
secured to a stamped steel bracket that is integral to
the instrument panel armature. The CTM is enclosed
in a molded plastic housing with one (base) or two
(high-line/premium) integral external connector
receptacles that connect it to the vehicle electrical
system through one (base) or two (high-line/pre-
mium) take outs with connectors from the instru-
ment 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 achime 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.
