BELT TENSIONERS - 5.9L
DIESEL
DESCRIPTION
Drive belts on all engines are equipped with a
spring loaded automatic belt tensioner (Fig. 9). This
tensioner maintains constant belt tension at all times
and requires no maintenance or adjustment.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to check belt tension with
a belt tension gauge on vehicles equipped with an
automatic belt tensioner.
OPERATION
WARNING: THE AUTOMATIC BELT TENSIONER
ASSEMBLY IS SPRING LOADED. DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO DISASSEMBLE THE TENSIONER ASSEMBLY.
The automatic belt tensioner maintains correct belt
tension using a coiled spring within the tensioner
housing. The spring applies pressure to the tensioner
arm pressing the arm into the belt, tensioning the
belt.
If a new belt is being installed, the arrow must be
within approximately 3 mm (1/8 in.) of indexing
mark. Belt is considered new if it has been used 15
minutes or less. If this specification cannot be met,
check for:
²The wrong belt being installed (incorrect length/
width)²Worn bearings on an engine accessory (A/C com-
pressor, power steering pump, water pump, idler pul-
ley or generator)
²A pulley on an engine accessory being loose
²Misalignment of an engine accessory
²Belt incorrectly routed.

The complete assembly must be removed in order
to service either pump. However, the power steering
pump can be removed and serviced separately when
necessary.
The vacuum pump is not a serviceable component.
If diagnosis indicates a pump malfunction, the pump
must be replaced as an assembly. Do not disassemble
or attempt to repair the pump.
The combined vacuum and steering pump assem-
bly must be removed for access to either pump. How-
ever, the vacuum pump can be removed without
having to disassemble the power steering pump.
If the power steering pump requires service, simply
remove the assembly and separate the two pumps.
Refer to the pump removal and installation proce-
dures in this section.
OPERATION
Vacuum pump output is transmitted to the
HEVAC, speed control, systems through a supply
hose. The hose is connected to an outlet port on the
pump housing and uses an in-line check valve to
retain system vacuum when vehicle is not running.
Pump output ranges from a minimum of 8.5 to 25
inches vacuum.
The pump rotor and vanes are rotated by the pump
drive gear. The drive gear is operated by the cam-
shaft gear.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐVACUUM PUMP
OUTPUT
The vacuum pump supplies necessary vacuum to
components in the following systems:
²HEVAC system
²Speed Control System
A quick check to determine if the vacuum pump is
the cause of the problem in any of these systems is to
road test the vehicle and verify that all of these sys-
tems are fuctioning properly. If only one of these has
a vacuum related failure, then it is likely the vacuum
pump is not the cause.
A standard vacuum gauge can be used to check
pump output when necessary. Simply disconnect the
pump supply hose and connect a vacuum gauge to
the outlet port for testing purposes. With the engine
running, vacuum output should be a minimum of 25
inches, depending on engine speed.
DIAGNOSING LOW VACUUM OUTPUT CONDITION
If the vacuum pump is suspected of low vacuum
output, check the pump and vacuum harnesses as
follows:
(1) Visually inspect the vacuum harness for obvi-
ous failures (i.e. disconnected, cracks, breaks etc.)
(2) Disconnect the vacuum supply hose at the vac-
uum pump check valve. Connect vacuum gauge to
this valve and run engine at various throttle open-
ings. Output should be a minimum 25 inches of vac-
uum. If vacuum is consistently below 25 inches, the
vacuum pump should be replaced. If output is within
specified limits, the vacuum harness should be sus-
pected as the cause.
(3) Disconnect and isolate the vacuum supply har-
ness. Cap off open ends and apply roughly 15 inches
of vacuum to the harness. If the vacuum gauge does
not hold its reading, then there is an open in the har-
ness and it should be repaired or replaced.
(4) If the vacuum loss is still not detected at this
point, then the pump and harness are not the cause
of the low vacuum condition. Apply vacuum to the
related components of the vacuum supply system (i.e.
valves, servos, solenoids, etc.) to find the source of
the vacuum loss.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect battery negative cables.
(2) Position drain pan under power steering pump.
(3) Disconnect vacuum and steering pump hoses.
(4) Disconnect lubricating oil feed line from fitting
at underside of vacuum pump (Fig. 24).
(5) Remove lower bolt that attaches pump assem-
bly to engine block (Fig. 25).

bracket to engine block. Nut and bracket must be
removed before pump assembly can be removed from
block.
(7) Remove upper bolt that attaches pump assem-
bly to engine block (Fig. 26).
(8) Remove pump assembly from vehicle.
NOTE: The vacuum pump and adapter are serviced
as an assembly and must not be seperated.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐRADIATOR
CAP-TO-FILLER NECK SEAL
The pressure cap upper gasket (seal) pressure
relief can be tested by removing overflow hose from
radiator filler neck nipple. Attach hose of pressure
tester tool 7700 (or equivalent) to nipple. It will be
necessary to disconnect hose from its adapter for
filler neck. Pump air into radiator. The pressure cap
upper gasket should relieve at 69-124 kPa (10-18 psi)
and hold pressure at a minimum of 55 kPa (8 psi).
WARNING: THE WARNING WORDS ÐDO NOT
OPEN HOTÐ ON RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP, ARE
A SAFETY PRECAUTION. WHEN HOT, PRESSURE
BUILDS UP IN COOLING SYSTEM. TO PREVENT
SCALDING OR INJURY, RADIATOR CAP SHOULD
NOT BE REMOVED WHILE SYSTEM IS HOT AND/OR
UNDER PRESSURE.
Do not remove radiator cap at any timeexceptfor
the following purposes:
²Check and adjust antifreeze freeze point
²Refill system with new antifreeze
²Conducting service procedures
²Checking for vacuum leaks
WARNING: IF VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUN RECENTLY,
WAIT AT LEAST 15 MINUTES BEFORE REMOVING
RADIATOR CAP. WITH A RAG, SQUEEZE RADIATOR
UPPER HOSE TO CHECK IF SYSTEM IS UNDER
PRESSURE. PLACE A RAG OVER CAP AND WITH-
OUT PUSHING CAP DOWN, ROTATE IT COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE TO FIRST STOP. ALLOW FLUID TO
ESCAPE THROUGH THE COOLANT RESERVE/
OVERFLOW HOSE INTO RESERVE/OVERFLOW
TANK. SQUEEZE RADIATOR UPPER HOSE TO
DETERMINE WHEN PRESSURE HAS BEEN
RELEASED. WHEN COOLANT AND STEAM STOP
BEING PUSHED INTO TANK AND SYSTEM PRES-
SURE DROPS, REMOVE RADIATOR CAP COM-
PLETELY.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐRADIATOR CAP
Remove cap from radiator. Be sure that sealing
surfaces are clean. Moisten rubber gasket with water
and install cap on pressure tester 7700 or an equiv-
alent (Fig. 44).NOTE: Radiator pressure testing tools are very sen-
sitive to small air leaks, which will not cause cool-
ing system problems. A pressure cap that does not
have a history of coolant loss should not be
replaced just because it leaks slowly when tested
with this tool. Add water to tool. Turn tool upside
down and recheck pressure cap to confirm that cap
needs replacement.
Operate tester pump to bring pressure to 104 kPa
(15 psi) on gauge. If pressure cap fails to hold pres-
sure of at least 97 kPa (14 psi) replace cap.
The pressure cap may test properly while posi-
tioned on tool 7700 (or equivalent). It may not hold
pressure or vacuum when installed on radiator. If so,
inspect radiator filler neck and cap's top gasket for
damage. Also inspect for dirt or distortion that may
prevent cap from sealing properly.CLEANING
Clean radiator pressure cap using a mild soap and
water mixture. DO NOT use any chemicals stronger
than mild soap, damage to the seal can occur.

TRANS COOLER - 5.9L
DESCRIPTION
An air-to-oil transmission oil cooler is standard on
all engine packages. the cooler is located between the
radiator and air conditioning condenser (Fig. 1).
OPERATION
The transmission oil is routed through the cooler
where heat is removed from the transmission oil
before returning to the transmission. The cooler has
an internal thermostat that controls fluid flow
through the cooler. When the transmission fluid is
cold ( less than operating temperature) the fluid is
routed through the cooler bypass. when the transmis-
sion fluid reaches operating temperatures and above,
the thermostat closes off the bypass allowing fluid
flow through the cooler. The thermostat MUST beremoved from the cooler before the cooler can be
flushed. The thermostat is serviceable.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - FLUSHING

When a transmission failure has contaminated the
fluid, the oil cooler(s) must be flushed. The torque
converter must also be replaced. This will insure that
metal particles or sludged oil are not later trans-
ferred back into the reconditioned (or replaced) trans-
mission.
The only recommended procedure for flushing cool-
ers and lines is to use Tool 6906-B Cooler Flusher.

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
the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual for more
information on DRBIIIttesting of the audio systems.

ANTENNA BODY & CABLE
DESCRIPTION
The antenna body and cable are not readily visible
in their installed positions in the vehicle. The most
visible component of the antenna body and cable are
the antenna adapter and the antenna cap nut, which
are located on the top of the right front fender panel
of the vehicle, near the right end of the cowl plenum.
The antenna body and cable are secured below the
fender panel by the antenna cap nut through a pre-
fabricated and dedicated mounting hole in the top of
the right front fender. The primary coaxial antenna
cable is then routed beneath the fender sheet metal
and through a prefabricated and dedicated cable
entry hole in the right cowl side panel into the inte-
rior of the vehicle. Inside the vehicle, the primary
coaxial cable is connected to a secondary instrument
panel antenna coaxial cable with an in-line connector
that is located behind the right end of the instrument
panel. The secondary coaxial cable is then routed
behind the instrument panel to the back of the radio.
The factory-installed radio antenna body and cable
consists of the following components:
²Antenna adapter- The antenna adapter is
sometimes also referred to as the antenna bezel or
escutcheon.
²Antenna body- The die cast white metal
antenna body is the mating structure between the
antenna mast and the primary antenna coaxial cable.
²Antenna cable- This vehicle uses a two-piece
antenna coaxial cable. The primary antenna cable is
integral to the antenna body, and the secondary
antenna cable connects the primary cable to the
radio.
²Antenna cap nut- The antenna cap nut is a
special, bright-plated threaded fastener that captures
the antenna adapter and retains the antenna body to
the fender sheet metal.The components of the radio antenna body and
cable cannot be adjusted or repaired. All factory-in-
stalled radios automatically compensate for radio
antenna trim. Therefore, no antenna trimmer adjust-
ment is required or possible after replacing the
antenna body and cable or the radio. If an antenna
body and cable component is damaged or faulty, it
must be replaced. Other than the primary antenna
cable, which is integral to the antenna body, the indi-
vidual components of the antenna are available for
service replacement.
OPERATION
The antenna body and cable connects the antenna
mast to the radio. The radio antenna is an electro-
magnetic circuit component used to capture radio fre-
quency signals that are broadcast by local
commercial radio stations in both the Amplitude
Modulating (AM) and Frequency Modulating (FM)
frequency ranges. These electromagnetic radio fre-
quency signals induce small electrical modulations
into the antenna as they move past the mast. The
antenna body transfers the weak electromagnetic
radio waves induced into the rigid antenna mast into
the center conductor of the flexible primary antenna
coaxial cable. The braided outer shield of the
antenna coaxial cable is grounded through both the
antenna body and the radio chassis, effectively
shielding the radio waves as they are conducted to
the radio. The radio then tunes and amplifies the
weak radio signals into stronger electrical signals in
order to operate the audio system speakers.
The antenna body includes an integral flange that
mates with and grounds the antenna body to the
underside of the fender panel sheet metal. Above the
fender panel, the antenna body has a short nipple
that is externally threaded to accept the antenna cap
nut. Inside the nipple is a plastic insulator tube, and
inside this insulator is an internally threaded metal
receptacle that accepts the adapter stud on the bot-
tom of the antenna mast. The antenna adapter
serves as an above fender interface to mount and
secure the antenna body to the vehicle. The antenna
adapter is a black molded plastic component that
provides a functional transition between the top of
the fender and the antenna cap nut, while concealing
the edges of the antenna mounting hole and protect-
ing the painted finish of the fender from marring as
the antenna cap nut is tightened. The adapter is
installed over and shrouds the threaded nipple of the
antenna body, which is installed from under and pro-
trudes through the top of the mounting hole in the
fender. The antenna cap nut is installed on top of the
antenna adapter and tightened onto the external
threads of the antenna body nipple to effectively
secure and ground the antenna body to the fender.
Antenna Nut Wrench C-4816
8A - 4 AUDIOBR/BE
AUDIO (Continued)

Three notches on the outer circumference of the cap
nut are engaged by matching projections of an
antenna nut wrench (Special Tool C-4816) to facili-
tate the removal and installation of this special fas-
tener. Proper tightening of the antenna cap nut is
critical to ensuring proper grounding of the antenna
body to the fender sheet metal, which is necessary
for clear radio signal reception.
A short length of coaxial cable serves as the pri-
mary antenna cable. The center conductor of the
cable is connected to the antenna mast receptacle.
The outer wire mesh of the cable is connected to and
grounded through the antenna body. One end of the
primary antenna cable is securely crimped to the
lower end of the antenna body, while the opposite
end features a simple push/pull-type male coaxial
cable connector that serves as the in-line connector to
the instrument panel (secondary) antenna coaxial
cable. The primary coaxial cable includes a grommet
that seals the cable to an entry hole in the right cowl
side outer panel where the cable passes into the pas-
senger compartment of the vehicle. The secondary
antenna cable has a push/pull-type male coaxial
cable connector on the radio end, and a push/pull-
type female coaxial cable connector on the opposite
end, which serves as the in-line connector to the pri-
mary antenna cable. In the passenger compartment
the primary cable is routed to the lower right side of
the instrument panel, where it is connected to the
secondary instrument panel antenna cable. The
instrument panel antenna cable is routed near the
instrument panel wire harness through the instru-
ment panel to the radio and is secured to the instru-
ment panel structural support with small metal
push-on retainers. This two-piece antenna cable
arrangement allows the instrument panel or the
antenna body and cable to be removed or installed
without disturbing the radio.

The following four tests are used to diagnose the
antenna with an ohmmeter:
²Test 1- Mast to ground test
²Test 2- Tip-of-mast to tip-of-conductor test
²Test 3- Body ground to battery ground test
²Test 4- Body ground to coaxial shield test.The ohmmeter test lead connections for each test
are shown in Antenna Tests (Fig. 1).
NOTE: This model has a two-piece antenna coaxial
cable. Tests 2 and 4 must be conducted in two
steps to isolate a coaxial cable problem; from the
coaxial cable connection under the right end of the
instrument panel near the right cowl side inner
panel to the antenna base, and then from the coax-
ial cable connection to the radio receiver chassis
connection.
TEST 1
Test 1 determines if the antenna mast is insulated
from the base. Proceed as follows:
(1) Disconnect and isolate the antenna coaxial
cable connector from the radio receiver chassis.
(2) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the tip of
the antenna mast. Connect the other test lead to the
antenna base. Check for continuity.
(3) There should be no continuity. If continuity is
found, replace the faulty or damaged antenna base
and cable assembly.
TEST 2
Test 2 checks the antenna for an open circuit as
follows:
(1) Disconnect the antenna coaxial cable connector
from the radio receiver chassis.
(2) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the tip of
the antenna mast. Connect the other test lead to the
center pin of the antenna coaxial cable connector.
(3) Continuity should exist (the ohmmeter should
only register a fraction of an ohm). High or infinite
resistance indicates damage to the base and cable
