SKIS INDICATOR LAMP
DESCRIPTION
A Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indicator
lamp is standard equipment on all instrument clus-
ters, but is only functional on vehicles equipped with
the optional SKIS. The amber SKIS indicator lamp is
located to the right of the oil pressure gauge.
OPERATION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indica-
tor lamp gives an indication to the vehicle operator of
the status of the SKIS. This lamp is controlled by a
transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board
based upon messages received by the cluster from
the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) over the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus. The SKIS indicator lamp bulb receives battery
current on the instrument cluster circuit board
through the fused ignition switch output (st-run) cir-
cuit whenever the ignition switch is in the On or
Start positions. The lamp bulb only illuminates when
it is provided a path to ground by the instrument
cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will turn
on the SKIS indicator lamp for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, the SKIM tells the cluster
to illuminate the lamp for about three seconds.
²SKIS Lamp-On Message- Each time the clus-
ter receives a SKIS lamp-on message from the SKIM,
the lamp will be illuminated. The lamp can be
flashed on and off, or illuminated solid, as dictated
by the message from the SKIM. For more informa-
tion on the SKIS and the SKIS lamp control param-
eters, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE THEFT
SECURITY - OPERATION - SENTRY KEY IMMO-
BILIZER SYSTEM). The lamp remains illuminated
until the cluster receives a lamp-off message from
the SKIM 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 lamp will be turned on
for the duration of the test to confirm the functional-
ity of the lamp and the cluster.
The SKIM performs a self-test each time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the On position to decide
whether the system is in good operating condition.
The SKIM then sends a message to the instrument
cluster. If the SKIS indicator lamp fails to light dur-
ing the bulb test, replace the bulb. For further diag-
nosis of the SKIS indicator lamp or the instrument

tem functions, as well as separate hard wired sense
inputs to the BCM for the high speed continuous
wipe and front washer system functions.
The front wiper and washer system will only oper-
ate when the ignition switch is in the Accessory or
On positions. Battery current is directed from a B(+)
fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) to the
wiper and washer system circuit breaker in the Junc-
tion Block (JB) through a fused ignition switch out-
put (run-acc) circuit. The automatic resetting circuit
breaker then provides battery current through a
fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit to the
wiper on/off relay, and the park switch in the front
wiper motor. A separate fuse in the JB provides bat-
tery current through another fused ignition switch
output (run-acc) circuit to the right multi-function
switch. The right multi-function switch circuitry uses
this battery feed to directly control the operation of
the front washer pump/motor unit. The BCM uses
low side drivers to control front wiper system opera-
tion by energizing or de-energizing the wiper high/
low and wiper on/off relays.
The hard wired circuits and components of the
front wiper and washer system may be diagnosed
and tested using conventional diagnostic tools and
procedures. However, conventional diagnostic meth-
ods may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the
Body Control Module (BCM), or the inputs to or out-
puts from the BCM that control the front wiper and
washer system operating modes. The most reliable,
efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the BCM,
or the BCM inputs and outputs related to the various
front wiper and washer system operating modes
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
Following are paragraphs that briefly describe the
operation of each of the front wiper and washer sys-
tem operating modes.
CONTINUOUS WIPE MODE
When the Low position of the control knob on the
control stalk of the right (wiper) multi-function
switch is selected, the Body Control Module (BCM)
energizes the wiper on/off relay. This directs battery
current through the normally open contacts of the
energized wiper on/off relay and the normally closed
contacts of the de-energized wiper high/low relay to
the low speed brush of the front wiper motor, causing
the front wipers to cycle at low speed. When the
High position of the control knob is selected, the
BCM energizes both the wiper on/off relay and the
wiper high/low relay. This directs battery current
through the normally open contacts of the energized
wiper on/off relay and the normally open contacts of
the energized wiper high/low relay to the high speedbrush of the front wiper motor, causing the front wip-
ers to cycle at high speed.
When the Off position of the control knob is
selected, the BCM de-energizes both the wiper on/off
and wiper high/low relays, then one of two events
will occur. The event that will occur depends upon
the position of the wiper blades on the windshield at
the moment that the control knob Off position is
selected. If the wiper blades are in the down position
on the windshield when the Off position is selected,
the park switch that is integral to the front wiper
motor is closed to ground and the wiper motor ceases
to operate. If the wiper blades are not in the down
position on the windshield at the moment the Off
position is selected, the park switch is closed to bat-
tery current from the fused ignition switch output
(run-acc) circuit of the front wiper motor. The park
switch directs this battery current to the low speed
brush of the wiper motor through the wiper park
switch sense circuit and the normally closed contacts
of the wiper on/off and wiper high/low relays. This
causes the wiper motor to continue running at low
speed until the wiper blades are in the down position
on the windshield and the park switch is again
closed to ground.
INTERMITTENT WIPE MODE
On models not equipped with the optional auto-
matic wiper system, when the control knob on the
control stalk of the right (wiper) multi-function
switch is moved to one of the five Delay interval posi-
tions, the BCM electronic intermittent wipe logic cir-
cuit responds by calculating the correct length of
time between wiper sweeps based upon the selected
delay interval input. The BCM monitors the chang-
ing state of the wiper motor park switch through a
hard wired front wiper park switch sense circuit
input. This input allows the BCM to determine the
proper intervals at which to energize and de-energize
the wiper on/off relay to operate the front wiper
motor intermittently for one low speed cycle at a
time. The BCM logic is also programmed to provide
an immediate wipe cycle and begin a new delay
interval timing cycle each time a shorter delay inter-
val is selected, and to add the remaining delay tim-
ing interval to the new delay interval timing before
the next wipe cycle occurs each time a longer delay
interval is selected.
The intermittent wipe mode delay times are speed
sensitive. The BCM monitors vehicle speed messages
received from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network in order to provide the speed
sensitive delay intervals. Above about sixteen kilome-
ters-per-hour (ten miles-per-hour) the delay is driver
adjustable from about one-half second to about eigh-

JUNCTION BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
An electrical Junction Block (JB) is concealed
beneath the driver side of the instrument panel in
the passenger compartment of the vehicle (Fig. 3).
The JB combines the functions previously provided
by a separate fuseblock module and relay center. The
JB serves to simplify and centralize numerous elec-
trical components, as well as to distribute electrical
current to many of the accessory systems in the vehi-
cle. It also eliminates the need for numerous splice
connections. The JB houses up to thirty-three blade-
type mini fuses, up to two blade-type automatic
resetting circuit breakers, the electronic combination
flasher, the Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) module
(Canada only) and up to twelve International Stan-
dards Organization (ISO) relays (three standard-type
and nine micro-type). The JB also incorporates an
integral connector and mounting for the Body Con-
trol Module (BCM). The BCM is secured with four
screws directly to the dash panel side of the JB.
Refer toBody Control Modulein Electronic Con-
trol Modules for additional information covering the
BCM.
The molded plastic JB housing has integral mounts
that are secured with two screws and two snap
retainers to the instrument panel steering column
support bracket behind the instrument panel steer-ing column opening cover. The JB is concealed above
the molded plastic instrument panel fuse cover. Inte-
gral latches molded into the fuse cover secure it the
JB, the BCM and the 16-way data link connector tab
of the instrument panel steering column support
bracket. The fuse cover can be pulled downward to
disengage the latches and provide service access to
all of the fuses, relays and wire harness connectors of
the JB. The fuse cover has a fuse puller and spare
fuses secured to its upper surface. Refer toInstru-
ment Panel Fuse Coverin Body for additional ser-
vice information.
The JB unit cannot be repaired and is only ser-
viced as an assembly. If any internal circuit or the JB
housing is faulty or damaged, the entire JB unit
must be replaced. The BCM is available for separate
service replacement.
OPERATION
All of the circuits entering and leaving the Junc-
tion Block (JB) do so through up to five wire harness
connectors, which are connected to the JB through
integral connector receptacles molded into the JB
housing. Internal connection of all of the JB circuits
is accomplished by a printed circuit board. There are
also two separate wire harness connections to con-
nector receptacles that are integral to the BCM.
Refer toJunction Blockin Wiring Diagrams for
additional information and the location of complete
JB circuit diagrams.

Normal calibration will be performed when sump
temperature is above 50 degrees F, or in the absence
of sump temperature data, after the first 10 minutes
of vehicle operation. Calibration of the pressure
transducer offset occurs each time the output shaft
speed falls below 200 RPM. Calibration shall be
repeated each 3 seconds the output shaft speed is
below 200 RPM. A 0.5 second pulse of 95% duty cycle
is applied to the governor pressure solenoid valve
and the transducer output is read during this pulse.
Averaging of the transducer signal is necessary to
reject electrical noise.
Under cold conditions (below 50 degrees F sump),
the governor pressure solenoid valve response may
be too slow to guarantee 0 psi during the 0.5 second
calibration pulse. Calibration pulses are continued
during this period, however the transducer output
valves are discarded. Transducer offset must be read
at key-on, under conditions which promote a stable
reading. This value is retained and becomes the off-
set during the9cold9period of operation.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SOLENOID VALVE
The inlet side of the solenoid valve is exposed to
normal transmission line pressure. The outlet side of
the valve leads to the valve body governor circuit.
The solenoid valve regulates line pressure to pro-
duce governor pressure. The average current sup-
plied to the solenoid controls governor pressure. One
amp current produces zero kPa/psi governor pres-
sure. Zero amps sets the maximum governor pres-
sure.
The powertrain control module (PCM) turns on the
trans control relay which supplies electrical power to
the solenoid valve. Operating voltage is 12 volts
(DC). The PCM controls the ground side of the sole-
noid using the governor pressure solenoid control cir-
cuit.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SENSOR
The sensor output signal provides the necessary
feedback to the PCM. This feedback is needed to ade-
quately control governor pressure.
GOVERNOR BODY AND TRANSFER PLATE
The transfer plate channels line pressure to the
solenoid valve through the governor body. It also
channels governor pressure from the solenoid valve
to the governor circuit. It is the solenoid valve that
develops the necessary governor pressure.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE CURVES
LOW TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE
When the transmission fluid is cold the conven-
tional governor can delay shifts, resulting in higherthan normal shift speeds and harsh shifts. The elec-
tronically controlled low temperature governor pres-
sure curve is higher than normal to make the
transmission shift at normal speeds and sooner. The
PCM uses a temperature sensor in the transmission
oil sump to determine when low temperature gover-
nor pressure is needed.
NORMAL OPERATION
Normal operation is refined through the increased
computing power of the PCM and through access to
data on engine operating conditions provided by the
PCM that were not available with the previous
stand-alone electronic module. This facilitated the
development of a load adaptive shift strategy - the
ability to alter the shift schedule in response to vehi-
cle load condition. One manifestation of this capabil-
ity is grade9hunting9prevention - the ability of the
transmission logic to delay an upshift on a grade if
the engine does not have sufficient power to main-
tain speed in the higher gear. The 3-2 downshift and
the potential for hunting between gears occurs with a
heavily loaded vehicle or on steep grades. When
hunting occurs, it is very objectionable because shifts
are frequent and accompanied by large changes in
noise and acceleration.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE OPERATION
In wide-open throttle (WOT) mode, adaptive mem-
ory in the PCM assures that up-shifts occur at the
preprogrammed optimum speed. WOT operation is
determined from the throttle position sensor, which
is also a part of the emission control system. The ini-
tial setting for the WOT upshift is below the opti-
mum engine speed. As WOT shifts are repeated, the
PCM learns the time required to complete the shifts
by comparing the engine speed when the shifts occur
to the optimum speed. After each shift, the PCM
adjusts the shift point until the optimum speed is
reached. The PCM also considers vehicle loading,
grade and engine performance changes due to high
altitude in determining when to make WOT shifts. It
does this by measuring vehicle and engine accelera-
tion and then factoring in the shift time.
TRANSFER CASE LOW RANGE OPERATION
On four-wheel drive vehicles operating in low
range, the engine can accelerate to its peak more
rapidly than in Normal range, resulting in delayed
shifts and undesirable engine9flare.9The low range
governor pressure curve is also higher than normal
to initiate upshifts sooner. The PCM compares elec-
tronic vehicle speed signal used by the speedometer
to the transmission output shaft speed signal to
determine when the transfer case is in low range.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - VACUUM SYSTEM
Vacuum control is used to operate the mode doors
in the standard equipment manual temperature con-
trol system HVAC housing. Testing of the A/C Heater
mode control switch operation will determine if the
vacuum and electrical controls are functioning. How-
ever, it is possible that a vacuum control system that
operates perfectly at engine idle (high engine vac-
uum) may not function properly at high engine
speeds or loads (low engine vacuum). This can be
caused by leaks in the vacuum system, or a faulty
vacuum check valve.
A vacuum system test will help to identify the
source of poor vacuum system performance or vac-
uum system leaks. Before starting this test, stop the
engine and make certain that the problem isn't a dis-
connected vacuum supply tube at the engine intake
manifold vacuum tap or the vacuum reservoir.
Use an adjustable vacuum test set (Special Tool
C-3707-B) and a suitable vacuum pump to test the
HVAC vacuum control system. With a finger placed
over the end of the vacuum test hose probe (Fig. 1),
adjust the bleed valve on the test set gauge to obtain
a vacuum of exactly 27 kPa (8 in. Hg.). Release and
block the end of the probe several times to verify that
the vacuum reading returns to the exact 27 kPa (8
in. Hg.) setting. Otherwise, a false reading will be
obtained during testing.
VACUUM CHECK VALVES
(1) Remove the vacuum check valve to be tested.
The valves are located in the (black) vacuum supply
tubes at either the engine intake manifold vacuum
tap, or on the bottom of the HVAC unit behind the
passenger front floor duct.
(2) Connect the test set vacuum supply hose to the
A/C Heater control side of the valve. When connected
to this side of the check valve, no vacuum should
pass and the test set gauge should return to the 27
kPa (8 in. Hg.) setting. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK,
replace the faulty valve.
(3) Connect the test set vacuum supply hose to the
engine vacuum side of the valve. When connected to
this side of the check valve, vacuum should flow
through the valve without restriction. If not OK,
replace the faulty valve.
A/C HEATER CONTROL
(1) Connect the test set vacuum probe to the
HVAC vacuum supply (black) tube in the engine com-
partment. Position the test set gauge so that it can
be viewed from the passenger compartment.
(2) Place the A/C Heater mode control switch knob
in each mode position, one position at a time, and
pause after each selection. The test set gauge should
return to the 27 kPa (8 in. Hg.) setting shortly after
each selection is made. If not OK, a component or
vacuum line in the vacuum circuit of the selected
mode has a leak. See the procedure in Locating Vac-
uum Leaks.
CAUTION: Do not use lubricant on the switch ports
or in the holes in the plug, as lubricant will ruin the
vacuum valve in the switch. A drop of clean water
in the connector plug holes will help the connector
slide onto the switch ports.

(1) Disconnect the vacuum harness connector from
the back of the A/C Heater mode control switch on
the control panel.
(2) Connect the test set vacuum hose probe to each
port in the vacuum harness connector, one at a time,
and pause after each connection (Fig. 2). The test set
gauge should return to the 27 kPa (8 in. Hg.) setting
shortly after each connection is made. If OK, replace
the faulty mode control switch. If not OK, go to Step
3.(3) Determine the vacuum line color of the vacuum
circuit that is leaking. To determine the vacuum line
colors, refer to the Vacuum Circuits chart (Fig. 3).
(4) Disconnect and plug the vacuum line from the
component (fitting, actuator, valve, switch, or reser-
voir) on the other end of the leaking circuit. Instru-
ment panel disassembly or removal may be necessary
to gain access to some components.
(5) Connect the test set hose or probe to the open
end of the leaking circuit. The test set gauge should
return to the 27 kPa (8 in. Hg.) setting shortly after
each connection is made. If OK, replace the faulty
disconnected component. If not OK, go to Step 6.
(6) To locate a leak in a vacuum line, leave one
end of the line plugged and connect the test set hose
or probe to the other end. Run your fingers slowly
along the line while watching the test set gauge. The
vacuum reading will fluctuate when your fingers con-
tact the source of the leak. To repair the vacuum
line, cut out the leaking section of the line. Then,
insert the loose ends of the line into a suitable length
of 3 millimeter (1/8-inch) inside diameter rubber
hose.
