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.

for the service procedures. For complete circuit dia-
grams, refer to the appropriate wiring information.
DESCRIPTION - LIFTGATE AJAR SWITCH
The two liftgate ajar switches are integral to the
two liftgate latch mechanisms. The two liftgate ajar
switches are actuated by the liftgate latch mecha-
nisms, and are hard wired with each other between a
body ground and the Body Control Module (BCM)
through the liftgate and body wire harnesses.
The liftgate ajar switches cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the liftgate latch
unit must be replaced. (Refer to 23 - BODY/DECK-
LID/HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAILGATE/LATCH -
REMOVAL) for the service procedures. For complete
circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate wiring
information.
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.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR AJAR
SWITCH
The following diagnosis and testing is only
for the chime functions. For interior lamp diag-
nosis, refer to the appropriate wiring informa-
tion.The driver door ajar switch is hard wired to the
Driver Door Module (DDM). The DDM communicates
the switch status to the other modules in the vehicle
on the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network. The following test will diag-
nose a faulty driver door ajar switch and circuits. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate
wiring information.

CLOCKSPRING
DESCRIPTION
The clockspring assembly is secured with two
screws to the multi-function switch mounting hous-
ing near the top of the steering column behind the
steering wheel (Fig. 13). The clockspring consists of a
flat, round molded plastic case with a stubby tail
that hangs below the steering column and contains
two connector receptacles that face toward the
instrument panel (Fig. 14). Within the plastic hous-ing is a spool-like molded plastic rotor with a large
exposed hub. The upper surface of the rotor hub has
a large center hole, two large flats, an index hole,
two short pigtail wires with connectors, and two con-
nector receptacles that face toward the steering
wheel.
The lower surface of the rotor hub has three pins,
two round and one oblong. These pins index the
clockspring to the turn signal cancel cam unit in the
multi-function switch mounting housing. Within the
plastic case and wound around the rotor spool is a
long ribbon-like tape that consists of several thin cop-
per wire leads sandwiched between two thin plastic
membranes. The outer end of the tape terminates at
the connector receptacles that face the instrument
panel, while the inner end of the tape terminates at
the pigtail wires and connector receptacles on the
hub of the clockspring rotor that face the steering
wheel.
Service replacement clocksprings are shipped pre-
centered and with a molded plastic locking pin
installed. The locking pin secures the centered clock-
spring rotor to the clockspring case during shipment
and handling, but must be removed from the clock-
spring after it and the multi-function switch mount-
ing housing are installed on the steering column.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCK-
SPRING - STANDARD PROCEDURE - CLOCK-
