TURN SIGNAL CANCEL CAM
DESCRIPTION
The turn signal cancel cam is concealed within the
multi-function switch housing below the steering
wheel and the clockspring mechanism. The turn sig-
nal cancel cam consists of a disc unit with two inte-
gral lobes. The upper lobe of the cam has an
alignment hole that is used to align it with another
hole in the back of the multi-function switch mount-
ing housing. The upper surface of the turn signal
cancel cam features three holes, two round and one
oblong. These holes engage and key the cancel cam to
three matching pins in the hub of the clockspring
mechanism. The hub of the clockspring and the turn
signal cancel cam rotate with the steering wheel. The
centered clockspring housing is then secured to the
multi-function switch mounting housing over the top
of the turn signal cancel cam.
The turn signal cancel cam is serviced as a assem-
bly with the multi-function switch housing. The turn
signal cancel cam cannot be repaired and, if faulty or
damaged, the multi-function switch mounting hous-
ing unit must be replaced. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/LEFT MULTI-
FUNCTION SWITCH - REMOVAL - MULTI-
FUNCTION SWITCH MOUNTING HOUSING).
OPERATION
The turn signal cancel cam has two lobes. When
the turn signals are activated by moving the left
multi-function switch control stalk to a detent posi-
tion, a turn signal cancel actuator is extended from
the inside surface of the multi-function switch hous-
ing toward the center of the steering column and the
turn signal cancel cam. When the steering wheel is
rotated during a turning maneuver, one of the two
turn signal cancel cam lobes will contact the turn sig-
nal cancel actuator. The cancel actuator latches
against the cancel cam rotation in the direction oppo-
site that which is signaled.

OPERATION
OPERATION - DOOR AJAR SWITCH
The front door ajar switches close a path to ground
for the DDM or the PDM when a front door is
opened, and opens the ground path when a front door
is closed. The rear door ajar switches close a path to
ground for the BCM when a rear door is opened, and
opens the ground path when a rear door is closed.
The DDM, PDM, or BCM read the switch status then
send the proper switch status messages to other
modules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The door ajar
switch status message is used by the BCM as an
input for Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) oper-
ation.
OPERATION - FLIP UP GLASS AJAR SWITCH
The liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch can close a
path to ground for the BCM and the rear wiper
motor module when the liftgate flip-up glass is
opened, and opens the ground path when the liftgate
flip-up glass is closed. The rear wiper motor module
uses the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch input to
control the rear wiper operation, and will park the
rear wiper blade if this input indicates that the lift-
gate flip-up glass is ajar. The BCM reads the switch
status then sends the proper switch status message
to other modules over the Programmable Communi-cations Interface (PCI) data bus network. The liftgate
flip-up glass ajar switch status message is used by
the BCM as an input for Vehicle Theft Security Sys-
tem (VTSS) operation.
OPERATION - LIFTGATE AJAR SWITCH
Each of the liftgate ajar switches can close a path
to ground for the BCM when the liftgate is opened,
and opens the ground path when the liftgate is
closed. The BCM reads the switch status then sends
the proper switch status message to other modules
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network. The liftgate ajar switch sta-
tus message is used by the BCM as an input for
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) operation.

messages. The EVIC module uses its internal pro-
gramming and all of its data inputs to calculate and
display the requested data. If the data displayed is
incorrect, perform the self-diagnostic tests as
described in this group. If these tests prove inconclu-
sive, the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures manual are recommended for
further testing of the EVIC module and the PCI data
bus.
The EVIC module cannot be repaired, and is avail-
able for service only as a unit. This unit includes the
push button switches and the plastic housed module.
If any of these components are faulty or damaged,
the complete EVIC module must be replaced. The
incandescent bulbs used for EVIC push button back-
lighting and the display lens are available for service
replacement.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
CHIME
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
uses the chime warning system for two different
kinds of support. In addition to requesting chime
tones from the Body Control Module (BCM) as tactile
beep support, the EVIC is programmed to send chime
request messages over the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus when it detects the
following conditions:
²Door Open Warning- A door is open above a
critical speed [about 16 kilometers-per-hour (10
miles-per-hour) for the driver side front door, or
about 5 kilometers-per-hour (3 miles-per-hour) for
any other door].
²Liftgate Open Warning- The liftgate is open
above a critical speed [about 5 kilometers-per-hour (3
miles-per-hour)].
²Liftglass Open Warning- The liftgate flip-up
glass is open above a critical speed [about 5 kilome-
ters-per-hour (3 miles-per-hour)].
²Low Coolant Level Warning- The coolant
level in the engine coolant reservoir is low.
²Perform Service Alert- An audible alert that
a ªPerform Serviceº reminder message is being dis-
played by the EVIC.
²Turn Signal On Warning- A turn signal
remains on for about 1.6 kilometers (one mile).
²Washer Fluid Low Warning- The fluid level
in the washer reservoir is low.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the EVIC. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER
- DESCRIPTION) for more information on the EVIC.
COMPASS
While in the compass/temperature mode, the com-
pass will display the direction in which the vehicle is
pointed using the eight major compass headings
(Examples: north is N, northeast is NE). The self-cal-
ibrating compass unit requires no adjusting in nor-
mal use. The only calibration that may prove
necessary is to drive the vehicle in one circle at 5 to
8 kilometers-per-hour (3 to 5 miles-per-hour), on level
ground, in not less than 20 seconds. This will reori-
ent the compass unit to its vehicle.
The compass unit also will compensate for magne-
tism the body of the vehicle may acquire during nor-
mal use. However, avoid placing anything magnetic
directly on the roof of the vehicle. Magnetic mounts
for an antenna, a repair order hat, or a funeral pro-
cession flag can exceed the compensating ability of
the compass unit if placed on the roof panel. Mag-
netic bit drivers used on the fasteners that hold the
overhead console assembly to the roof header can
also affect compass operation. If the vehicle roof
should become magnetized, the demagnetizing and
calibration procedures found in this group may be
required to restore proper compass operation.
TEMPERATURE
The outside ambient temperature is displayed in
whole degrees. The temperature display can be tog-
gled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by selecting the
desired U.S./Metric option from the customer pro-
grammable features as described inELECTRONIC
VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER PROGRAM-
MINGin the Standard Procedures section of this
group. The displayed temperature is not an instant
reading of conditions, but an average temperature. It
may take the temperature display several minutes to
respond to a major temperature change, such as driv-
ing out of a heated garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion, the last displayed temperature reading stays in
the Body Control Module (BCM) unit memory. When
the ignition switch is turned to the On position
again, the EVIC will display the memory tempera-
ture for one minute; then update the display to the
current average temperature reading within five
minutes.
The temperature function is supported by an ambi-
ent temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted out-
side the passenger compartment near the front and
center of the vehicle, and is hard wired to the Body
Control Module (BCM). The BCM sends temperature
status messages to the EVIC module over the PCI
data bus network. The ambient temperature sensor
is available as a separate service item.

cedure.
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
The Grand Cherokee Limited model has a Univer-
sal Garage Door Opener (UGDO) transceiver as stan-
dard factory-installed equipment. The UGDO is
optional on Laredo models. The UGDO transceiver is
integral to the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC), which is located in the overhead console. The
only visible component of the UGDO are the three
transmitter push buttons centered between the four
EVIC push buttons located just rearward of the
EVIC display screen in the overhead console. The
three UGDO transmitter push buttons are identified
with one, two or three dots so that they be easily
identified by sight.
Each of the three UGDO transmitter push buttons
controls an independent radio transmitter channel.
Each of these three channels can be trained to trans-
mit a different radio frequency signal for the remoteoperation of garage door openers, motorized gate
openers, home or office lighting, security systems or
just about any other device that can be equipped
with a radio receiver in the 288 to 410 MegaHertz
(MHz) frequency range for remote operation. The
UGDO is capable of operating systems using either
rolling code or non-rolling code technology.
The EVIC module displays messages and a small
house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots corre-
sponding to the three transmitter buttons to indicate
the status of the UGDO. The EVIC messages are:
²Cleared Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the UGDO have been suc-
cessfully cleared.
²Training- Indicates that the UGDO is in its
transmitter learning mode.
²Trained- Indicates that the UGDO has success-
fully acquired a new transmitter code.
²Transmit- Indicates that a trained UGDO
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
UGDO is transmitting.
The UGDO cannot be repaired, and is available for
service only as a unit with the EVIC module. This
unit includes the push button switches and the plas-
tic module. If any of these components are faulty or
damaged, the complete EVIC module must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The universal transmitter operates on a non-
switched source of battery current so the unit will
remain functional, regardless of the ignition switch
position. For more information on the features, pro-
gramming procedures and operation of the universal
transmitter, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - UNIVERSAL
TRANSMITTER
If the Universal Transmitter is inoperative, but the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) is oper-
ating normally, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box for instructions on training the Transmit-
ter. Retrain the Transmitter with a known good
transmitter as instructed in the owner's manual and
test the Transmitter operation again. If the unit is
still inoperative, replace the faulty Transmitter and
EVIC module as a unit. If both the Transmitter and
the EVIC module are inoperative, refer toElec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center Diagnosis
and Testingin this group for further diagnosis. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring Dia-
grams.

ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER (Continued)

The RKE system includes two transmitters when
the vehicle is shipped from the factory, but the sys-
tem can retain the vehicle access codes of up to four
transmitters. The transmitter codes are retained in
the RKE receiver memory, even if the battery is dis-
connected. If an RKE transmitter is faulty or lost,
new transmitter vehicle access codes can be pro-
grammed into the system using a DRBIIItscan tool
and the appropriate diagnostic information.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION). Customer programmable feature
options affecting the RKE system include:
²Remote Unlock- Allows the option of having
only the driver side front door unlock when the RKE
transmitter Unlock button is depressed the first time
and the remaining doors and the liftgate unlock
when the button is depressed a second time, or hav-
ing all doors and the liftgate unlock upon the first
depression of the RKE transmitter Unlock button.
²Remote Linked to Memory- If the vehicle is
equipped with the Memory System, this feature
allows the option of having the RKE transmitter
Unlock button activate the recall of the stored set-
tings, or having the recall function assigned solely to
the memory switch on the driver side front door trim
panel.
²Sound Horn on Lock- Allows the option of
having the horn sound a short chirp as an audible
verification that the doors have locked, or having no
audible verification.
²Flash Lights with Lock- Allows the option of
having the lights flash as an optical verification that
the doors have locked, or having no optical verifica-
tion.
This group covers the following components of the
RKE system:
²RKE Receiver
²RKE Transmitter
Certain functions and features of the RKE system
rely upon resources shared with other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sensor
information. This helps to reduce wire harness com-
plexity, internal controller hardware, and component
sensor current loads. At the same time, this system
provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics,
and allows the addition of many new feature capabil-
ities. For diagnosis of these electronic modules or of
the PCI data bus network, the use of a DRBIIItscan
tool and the appropriate diagnostic information are
required.The other electronic modules that may affect RKE
system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MOD-
ULE - DESCRIPTION).
²Driver Door Module (DDM)- (Refer to 8 -

Hard wired circuitry connects the RKE system
components via the PDM to the electrical system of
the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to
several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout
the vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the RKE system com-
ponents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring 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
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
COMBINATION FLASHER
The combination flasher is a smart relay that func-
tions as both the turn signal system and the hazard
warning system flasher. The combination flasher con-
tains active electronic Integrated Circuitry (IC) ele-
ments. This flasher can be energized by the BCM to
flash all of the park/turn signal/front side marker
lamps as an optical alert for the RKE panic function
and, if the Flash Lights with Lock programmable fea-
ture is enabled, as an optical verification for the RKE
lock event. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
