2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Electric plug ins

OPERATION
Battery voltage is supplied to the 8 ignition coils
from the ASD relay. The Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) opens and closes each ignition coil ground cir-
cuit at a determined time for ignition coil operation.
Base ignition timing is not adjustable.By con-
trolling the coil ground circuit, the PCM is able to set
the base timing and adjust the ignition timing
advance. This is done to meet changing engine oper-
ating conditions.
The ignition coil is not oil filled. The windings are
embedded in an epoxy compound. This provides heat
and vibration resistance that allows the ignition coil
to be mounted on the engine.
Because of coil design, spark plug cables (second-
ary cables) are not used.
REMOVAL
An individual ignition coil is used for each spark
plug (Fig. 18). The coil fits into machined holes in the
cylinder head. A mounting stud/nut secures each coil
to the top of the intake manifold (Fig. 19). The bot-
tom of the coil is equipped with a rubber boot to seal
the spark plug to the coil. Inside each rubber boot is
a spring. The spring is used for a mechanical contact
between the coil and the top of the spark plug. These
rubber boots and springs are a permanent part of the
coil and are not serviced separately. An o-ring (Fig.
18) is used to seal the coil at the opening into the cyl-
inder head.
(1) Depending on which coil is being removed, the
throttle body air intake tube or intake box may need
to be removed to gain access to coil.
(2) Disconnect electrical connector (Fig. 19) from
coil by pushing downward on release lock on top of
connector and pull connector from coil.
(3) Clean area at base of coil with compressed air
before removal.
(4) Remove coil mounting nut from mounting stud
(Fig. 19).
(5) Carefully pull up coil from cylinder head open-
ing with a slight twisting action.
(6) Remove coil from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Using compressed air, blow out any dirt or con-
taminants from around top of spark plug.
(2) Check condition of coil o-ring and replace as
necessary. To aid in coil installation, apply silicone to
coil o-ring.
(3) Position ignition coil into cylinder head opening
and push onto spark plug. Do this while guiding coil
base over mounting stud.
(4) Install mounting stud nut and tighten to 8 N´m
(70 in. lbs.) torque.(5) Connect electrical connector to coil by snapping
into position.
(6) If necessary, install throttle body air tube or
box.

ing the system voltage is high (system voltage is
about sixteen volts or higher), the gauge needle is
moved to the relative voltage position in the red zone
of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator is
illuminated. The gauge needle remains in the red
zone and the check gauges indicator remains illumi-
nated until the cluster receives a message from the
PCM indicating there is no high system voltage con-
dition (system voltage is below about sixteen volts,
but higher than about eleven volts).
²Communication Error- If the cluster fails to
receive a system voltage message, it will hold the
gauge needle at the last indication for about twelve
seconds, until a new message is received, or until the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, which-
ever occurs first. After twelve seconds, the cluster
will return the gauge needle to the low end of the
gauge scale.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the gauge needle will be
swept across the entire gauge scale and back to con-
firm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster
control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the system voltage
to control the generator output. The PCM then sends
the proper system voltage messages to the instru-
ment cluster. For further diagnosis of the voltage
gauge or the instrument cluster circuitry that con-
trols the gauge, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRU-
MENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If
the instrument cluster turns on the check gauges
indicator due to a system voltage low or high condi-
tion, it may indicate that the charging system
requires service. For proper diagnosis of the charging
system, the PCI data bus, or the electronic message
inputs to the instrument cluster that control the volt-
age gauge, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.
WAIT-TO-START INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A wait-to-start indicator is only found in the
instrument clusters of vehicles equipped with an
optional diesel engine. The wait-to-start indicator is
located near the lower edge of the tachometer gauge
dial face, to the right of center. The wait-to-start
indicator consists of an International Control and
Display Symbol icon for ªDiesel Preheatº imprinted
on an amber lens. The lens is located behind a cutout
in the opaque layer of the tachometer gauge dial face
overlay. The dark outer layer of the gauge dial face
overlay prevents the icon from being clearly visible
when the indicator is not illuminated. The icon
appears silhouetted against an amber field throughthe translucent outer layer of the gauge dial face
overlay when the indicator is illuminated from
behind by a replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb
holder unit located on the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The wait-to-start indicator lens
is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The wait-to-start indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator when the diesel engine glow
plugs are energized in their preheat operating mode.
This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the
instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster
programming and electronic messages received by
the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus. The wait-to-start indicator
bulb is completely controlled by the instrument clus-
ter logic circuit, and that logic will only allow this
indicator to operate when the instrument cluster
receives a battery current input on the fused ignition
switch output (run-start) circuit. Therefore, the indi-
cator will always be off when the ignition switch is in
any position except On or Start. The bulb only illu-
minates when it is switched to ground by the instru-
ment cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn on the wait-to-start indicator for the following
reasons:
²Wait-To-Start Indicator Lamp-On Message-
Each time the cluster receives a wait-to-start indica-
tor lamp-on message from the PCM indicating the
glow plugs are heating and the driver must wait to
start the engine, the wait-to-start indicator will be
illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until
the cluster receives a wait-to-start indicator lamp-off
message, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the wait-to-start indicator
will be turned on for the duration of the test to con-
firm the functionality of the bulb and the cluster con-
trol circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the ambient tem-
perature and the glow plug pre-heater circuits to
determine how long the glow plugs must be heated in
the pre-heat operating mode. The PCM then sends
the proper wait-to-start indicator lamp-on and lamp-
off messages to the instrument cluster. If the wait-to-
start indicator fails to light during the actuator test,
replace the bulb with a known good unit. For further
diagnosis of the wait-to-start indicator or the instru-
ment cluster circuitry that controls the indicator,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUS-
TER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). For proper
diagnosis of the glow plug pre-heater control circuits,

Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information. If
not OK, repair the open washer pump switch sense
circuit between the right (wiper) multi-function
switch and the BCM as required.
CLEANING - FRONT WIPER & WASHER
SYSTEM
WIPER SYSTEM
The squeegees of wiper blades exposed to the ele-
ments for a long time tend to lose their wiping effec-
tiveness. Periodic cleaning of the squeegees is
suggested to remove any deposits of salt or road film.
The wiper blades, arms, and windshield glass should
only be cleaned using a sponge or soft cloth and
windshield washer fluid, a mild detergent, or a non-
abrasive cleaner. If the wiper blades continue to
leave streaks, smears, hazing, or beading on the
glass after thorough cleaning of the squeegees and
the glass, the entire wiper blade assembly must be
replaced.
CAUTION: Protect the rubber squeegees of the
wiper blades from any petroleum-based cleaners,
solvents, or contaminants. These products can rap-
idly deteriorate the rubber squeegees.
WASHER SYSTEM
If the washer system is contaminated with foreign
material, drain the washer reservoir by removing the
front washer pump/motor from the reservoir. Clean
foreign material from the inside of the washer reser-
voir using clean washer fluid, a mild detergent, or a
non-abrasive cleaner. Flush foreign material from the
washer system plumbing by first disconnecting the
washer hoses from the washer nozzles, then running
the washer pump/motor to run clean washer fluid or
water through the system. Plugged or restricted
washer nozzles should be carefully back-flushed
using compressed air. If the washer nozzle obstruc-
tion cannot be cleared, replace the washer nozzle.
CAUTION: Never introduce petroleum-based clean-
ers, solvents, or contaminants into the washer sys-
tem. These products can rapidly deteriorate the
rubber seals and hoses of the washer system, as
well as the rubber squeegees of the wiper blades.
CAUTION: Never use compressed air to flush the
washer system plumbing. Compressed air pres-
sures are too great for the washer system plumbingcomponents and will result in further system dam-
age. Never use sharp instruments to clear a
plugged washer nozzle or damage to the nozzle ori-
fice and improper nozzle spray patterns will result.
INSPECTION - FRONT WIPER & WASHER
SYSTEM
WIPER SYSTEM
The front wiper blades and wiper arms should be
inspected periodically, not just when wiper perfor-
mance problems are experienced. This inspection
should include the following points:
(1) Inspect the wiper arms for any indications of
damage, or contamination. If the wiper arms are con-
taminated with any foreign material, clean them as
required. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/FRONT WIP-
ERS/WASHERS - CLEANING). If a wiper arm is
damaged or corrosion is evident, replace the wiper
arm with a new unit. Do not attempt to repair a
wiper arm that is damaged or corroded.
(2) Carefully lift the wiper blade off of the glass.
Note the action of the wiper arm hinge. The wiper
arm should pivot freely at the hinge, but with no lat-
eral looseness evident. If there is any binding evident
in the wiper arm hinge, or there is evident lateral
play in the wiper arm hinge, replace the wiper arm.
CAUTION: Do not allow the wiper arm to spring
back against the glass without the wiper blade in
place or the glass may be damaged.
(3) Once proper hinge action of the wiper arm is
confirmed, check the hinge for proper spring tension.
Remove the wiper blade from the wiper arm. Either
place a small postal scale between the blade end of
the wiper arm and the glass, or carefully lift the
blade end of the arm away from the glass using a
small fish scale. Compare the scale readings between
the right and left wiper arms. Replace a wiper arm if
it has comparatively lower spring tension, as evi-
denced by a lower scale reading.
(4) Inspect the wiper blades and squeegees for any
indications of damage, contamination, or rubber dete-
rioration (Fig. 2). If the wiper blades or squeegees
are contaminated with any foreign material, clean
them and the glass as required. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS - CLEANING).
After cleaning the wiper blade and the glass, if the
wiper blade still fails to clear the glass without
smearing, streaking, chattering, hazing, or beading,
replace the wiper blade. Also, if a wiper blade is
damaged or the squeegee rubber is damaged or dete-
riorated, replace the wiper blade with a new unit. Do
not attempt to repair a wiper blade that is damaged.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the left headlamp and dash wire harness
connector for the rear washer pump/motor unit from
the pump/motor unit connector receptacle. Check for
continuity between the ground circuit cavity of the
left headlamp and dash wire harness connector for
the rear washer pump/motor unit and a good ground.
There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 3. If not
OK, repair the open ground circuit to ground (G106)
as required.
(3) Reconnect the battery negative cable. Turn the
ignition switch to the On position. Push the right
multi-function switch control stalk toward the instru-
ment panel to actuate the rear washer switch. With
the rear washer switch actuated, check for battery
voltage at the rear washer switch output circuit cav-
ity of the left headlamp and dash wire harness con-
nector for the rear washer pump/motor unit. If OK,
replace the faulty rear washer pump/motor unit. If
not OK, repair the open rear washer switch output
circuit between the rear washer pump/motor unit
and the right multi-function switch as required.

ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The 3±wire, solid-state engine oil pressure sensor
(sending unit) is located in an engine oil pressure
gallery.
OPERATION
The oil pressure sensor uses three circuits. They
are:
²A 5±volt power supply from the Powertrain Con-
trol Module (PCM)
²A sensor ground through the PCM's sensor
return
²A signal to the PCM relating to engine oil pres-
sure
The oil pressure sensor has a 3±wire electrical
function very much like the Manifold Absolute Pres-
sure (MAP) sensor. Meaning different pressures
relate to different output voltages.
A 5±volt supply is sent to the sensor from the PCM
to power up the sensor. The sensor returns a voltage
signal back to the PCM relating to engine oil pres-
sure. This signal is then transferred (bussed) to theinstrument panel on either a CCD or PCI bus circuit
(depending on vehicle line) to operate the oil pressure
gauge and the check gauges lamp. Ground for the
sensor is provided by the PCM through a low-noise
sensor return.
OIL PUMP
REMOVAL
A gear-type oil pump is mounted at the underside
of the cylinder block opposite the No.4 main bearing.
