TRAILER TOW WIRING
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with an optional factory-in-
stalled (not dealer-installed or port-installed) trailer
towing package have a rear body wire harness that
includes an integral trailer tow wiring take out that
connects to a heavy duty, sealed, 7-pin trailer tow
connector located on a bracket on the trailer hitch
receiver (Fig. 68). This harness includes a second
take out with a trailer tow relay connector bank and
four trailer tow relays that isolate the right turn sig-
nal, left turn signal, and brake lamp circuits of the
vehicle from the electrical system of the trailer. The
fourth relay in the connector bank provides a fused
ignition switch output (run) source of battery current
to the trailer tow connector through a trailer tow
relay output circuit. The package also includes an
adapter harness (stored beneath the left rear seat
cushion of the vehicle when it is shipped from the
factory) that adapts the 7-pin trailer tow connector to
a standard, light-duty, 4-pin trailer tow connector.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.

The CMTC may also be integrated with the Uni-
versal Transmitter. If so, your CMTC module will
have three buttons centered together between the
outer four buttons. Below the three buttons are cor-
responding dots to indicate which button you are
using.
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer includes the fol-
lowing display options:
²Compass and thermometer- provides the out-
side temperature and one of eight compass readings
to indicate the direction the vehicle is facing.
²Average fuel economy- shows the average
fuel economy since the last trip computer reset.
²Distance to empty- shows the estimated dis-
tance that can be travelled with the fuel remaining
in the fuel tank. This estimated distance is computed
using the average miles-per-gallon from the last 30
gallons of fuel used.
²Instant fuel economy- shows the present fuel
economy based upon the current vehicle distance and
fuel used information.
²Trip odometer- shows the distance travelled
since the last trip computer reset.
²Elapsed time- shows the accumulated igni-
tion-on time since the last trip computer reset.
²Blank screen- the CMTC compass/thermome-
ter/trip computer VFD is turned off.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional Univer-
sal Transmitter transceiver, the CMTC will also dis-
play messages and an icon indicating when the
Universal Transmitter is being trained, which of the
three transmitter buttons is transmitting, and when
the transceiver is cleared.
Data input for all CMTC functions, including VFD
dimming level, is received through PCI data bus
messages. The CMTC 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 CMTC module and the PCI
data bus.
The CMTC module cannot be repaired, and is
available for service only as a unit. This unit
includes the push button switches and the plastic
module and display lens. If any of these components
is faulty or damaged, the complete CMTC module
must be replaced. The incandescent bulbs used for
CMTC push button back-lighting are available for
service replacement.
DESCRIPTION - COMPASS
While in the compass/thermometer mode, the com-
pass will display the direction in which the vehicle ispointed 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 three complete
circles at 5 to 8 kilometers-per-hour (3 to 5 miles-per-
hour), on level ground, in not less than forty-eight
seconds. This will reorient 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.
DESCRIPTION - THERMOMETER
The thermometer displays the outside ambient
temperature in whole degrees. The temperature dis-
play can be toggled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by
using the U.S./Metric button. The displayed temper-
ature is not an instant reading of conditions, but an
average temperature. It may take the thermometer
display several minutes to respond to a major tem-
perature change, such as driving 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 CMTC will display the memory tempera-
ture for one minute; then update the display to the
current average temperature reading within five
minutes.
The thermometer function is supported by an
ambient temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted
outside the passenger compartment near the front
and center of the vehicle, and is hard wired to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM sends tem-
perature status messages to the CMTC module over
the PCI data bus network. The ambient temperature
sensor is available as a separate service item, refer to
additional information later in this section.
OPERATION
The compass mini-trip computer operates when the
ignition is in the ON position. The VFD will display
the last display before ignition was turned OFF. The
four outer buttons operate:

(3) Remove the compass mini-trip computer from
the overhead console.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the compass mini-trip computer in the
overhead console. Align the compass mini-trip com-
puter guides on the housing with the grooves of the
console.
(2) Install the mounting screws and install the
map lamp wire connector on the compass mini-trip
computer. Make sure the LOOP of wire that was
clipped into the compass mini-trip computer module
housing is properly clipped into the new module
before the console is placed back into the headliner.
(3) Install the overhead console, refer to Console
Installation in this section.
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
On some KJ models a Universal Transmitter trans-
ceiver is standard factory-installed equipment. The
universal transmitter transceiver is integral to the
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC), which is
located in the overhead console. The only visible com-
ponent of the universal transmitter are the three
transmitter push buttons (Fig. 7) centered between
the four CMTC push buttons located just rearward of
the CMTC display screen in the overhead console.
The three universal transmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified by sight or by feel.
Each of the three universal transmitter push but-
tons controls an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained totransmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-
tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The universal transmitter is capable of operat-
ing systems using either rolling code or non-rolling
code technology.
The CMTC 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 Universal Transmitter.
The Universal Transmitter cannot be repaired, and
is available for service only as a unit with the CMTC
module. This unit includes the push button switches
and the plastic module and display lens. If any of
these components is faulty or damaged, the complete
CMTC 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
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) is operating
normally, see the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for instructions on training the universal trans-
mitter. Retrain the universal transmitter with a
known good transmitter as instructed in the owner's
manual and test the universal transmitter operation
again. If the unit is still inoperative, replace the
faulty universal transmitter and CMTC module as a
unit. If both the universal transmitter and the CMTC
module are inoperative, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing the Compass Mini-Trip Computerin this
section for further diagnosis. For complete circuit
diagrams, refer toOverhead Consolein Wiring
Diagrams.

are closed and the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The rolling door lock feature can be disabled if
desired.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the available Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) system radio frequency transmit-
ters, if equipped.
Certain functions and features of the power lock
system rely upon resources shared with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
For proper 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.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is an available factory-installed
option on this model. The RKE system allows the use
of a remote battery-powered radio transmitter to sig-
nal the Body Control Module (BCM) to actuate the
power lock system. The RKE receiver operates on
non-switched battery current through a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB), so that the system remains
operational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The RKE transmitters are also equipped with a
Panic button. If the Panic button on the RKE trans-
mitter is depressed, the horn will sound and the
exterior lights will flash on the vehicle for about
three minutes, or until the Panic button is depressed
a second time. A vehicle speed of about 25.7 kilome-
ters-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will also cancel the
panic event.
The RKE system can also perform other functions
on this vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS), the
RKE transmitter will arm the VTSS when the Lock
button is depressed, and disarm the VTSS when the
Unlock button is depressed.
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.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-ences. Customer programmable feature options
affecting the RKE system include:
²Remote Unlock Sequence- Allows the option
of having only the driver side front door unlock when
the RKE transmitter Unlock button is depressed the
first time. The remaining doors and the tailgate
unlock when the button is depressed a second time
within 5 seconds of the first unlock press. Another
option is having all doors and the tailgate unlock
upon the first depression of the RKE transmitter
Unlock button.
²Sound Horn on Lock- Allows the option of
having the horn sound a short chirp as an audible
verification that the RKE system received a valid
Lock request from the RKE transmitter, or having no
audible verification.
²Flash Lights with Lock and Unlock- Allows
the option of having the lights flash as an optical ver-
ification that the RKE system received a valid Lock
request or Unlock request from the RKE transmitter,
or having no optical verification.
²Programming Additional Transmitters-
Allows up to four transmitter vehicle access codes to
be stored in the receiver memory.
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. 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.
TAILGATE / FLIP-UP GLASS POWER RELEASE
SYSTEM
A power operated tailgate / flip-up glass release
system is standard factory installed equipment on
this model. The entire system is controlled by the
Body Control Module (BCM). The tailgate / flip-up
glass power release system allows the flip-up glass
latch to be released electrically by actuating a switch
located integral to the outside tailgate handle. By
pulling the handle to the first detent or turning the
key cylinder to unlock, the flip-up glass will open.
Pulling the handle to the second detent will allow the
tailgate to open.
The tailgate / flip-up glass release system operates
on non-switched battery current supplied through a
fuse in the junction block so that the system remains
functional, regardless of the ignition switch position.
However, the BCM prevents the flip-up glass latch
from being actuated when the tailgate latch is
locked.

DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The lock mechanisms are actuated by a reversible
electric motor mounted within each door and tailgate.
The power lock motors are integral to the door latch
units.
The power lock motors cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the door latch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The door lock motors are controlled by relays. A
positive and negative battery connection to the two
motor terminals will cause the motor to move in one
direction. Reversing the current will cause the motor
to move in the opposite direction.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
MOTOR
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the power lock system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide
confirmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that
all of the electronic modules are sending and receiv-
ing the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and
that the power lock motors are being sent the proper
hard wired outputs by the door modules for them to
perform their power lock system functions.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire
harness routing and retention, connector pin-out
information and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.

TRANSMITTER
RANGE
Normal operation range is up to a distance of 3 to
7 meters (10 to 23 ft.) of the vehicle. Range may be
better or worse depending on the environment
around the vehicle.
TAILGATE CYLINDER LOCK
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The tailgate cylinder lock switch is integral to the
key lock cylinder inside the tailgate. The tailgate cyl-
inder lock switch is a normally-open momentary
switch that is hard wired directly to the Body Con-
trol Module (BCM), and closes a path to ground
through an internal resistor when the lock cylinder is
rotated to the unlock or lock position.
The tailgate cylinder lock switch cannot be
adjusted or repaired.
OPERATION
The tailgate cylinder lock switch is actuated when
the key is inserted in the lock cylinder and turned to
the unlock or lock position. The tailgate cylinder lock
switch closes a path to ground through an internal
resistor for the Body Control Module (BCM) when
the tailgate key lock cylinder is in the lock or unlock
position, and opens the ground path when the lock
cylinder is in the neutral position. The BCM reads
the switch status, then sends the proper switch sta-
tus messages to other electronic modules over the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus network. The tailgate cylinder lock switch unlock
status message is used by the BCM as an input for
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) operation and
to tell the BCM to lock or unlock the tailgate. There
is no mechanical linkage between the tailgate key
cylinder and the latches.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TAILGATE

POWER SEATS
DESCRIPTION
Individually controlled, electrically powered front
seats are available as factory-installed equipment on
this model. Vehicles with this option can be visually
identified by the two separate power seat switches,
mounted on each of the front seat cushion side
shields (Fig. 1). The power seat system option allows
the front seating positions to be electrically adjustedfor optimum vehicle control and comfort. The power
seat cushion can be adjusted forward, rearward, front
up, front down, rear up, or rear down. The power
seat system for this vehicle includes the following
major components, which are described in further
detail later in this section:
²Power Seat Switches- Two power seat
switches are used per vehicle, one for the driver and
one for the front seat passenger. Refer to the left and
right power seat switch information later in this sec-
tion.
²Power Seat Tracks- Two power seat tracks
are used per vehicle, one for the driver and one for
the front seat passenger seats. Refer to the power
seat track information later in this section.
²Circuit Breaker- An automatic resetting cir-
cuit breaker (# 1) is located in the Junction Block
and is used to protect the power seat system from
current overload.
Hard wired circuitry connects the power seat sys-
tem components to each other through 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 differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
power seat system components through the use of a
combination of soldered splices, splice block connec-
tors and many different types of wire harness termi-
nal connectors and insulators. Refer to theWiring
section of this manual for more information. The wir-
ing 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.
Fig. 1 KJ Heated/Power Seat
8N - 14 POWER SEATSKJ

OPERATION
The power seat system receives battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) and a circuit breaker in the Junction Block,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the appropri-
ate power seat track adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track
through its drive unit in the selected direction until
the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the
seat track is reached. When the switch is moved in
the opposite direction, the battery feed and ground
path to the motor are reversed through the switch
contacts. This causes the adjuster motor to run in the
opposite direction.
Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for more information on the features, use and
operation of the power seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SEATS
Before any testing of the power seat system is
attempted, the battery should be fully-charged and
all wire harness connections and pins cleaned and
tightened to ensure proper continuity and grounds.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and joint connector location views for the var-
ious wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
(1) If all power seats are inoperative, check the
automatic resetting circuit breaker in the Junction
Block. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER DISTRI-
BUTION/CIRCUIT BREAKER - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING).
(2) With the dome lamp on, apply the power seat
switch in the direction of the failure.
(3) If the dome lamp dims, the seat or the power
seat track may be jammed. Check under and behind
the seat for binding or obstructions.
(4) If the dome lamp does not dim, proceed with
testing of the individual power seat system compo-
nents and circuits.
SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The six-way power seat option includes a power
seat track assembly located under each front seat
(Fig. 2). The power seat track assembly replaces the
standard manually operated seat tracks. The lower
half of the power seat track is secured at the frontwith two bolts to the floor panel seat cross member,
and at the rear with one bolt and one nut to the floor
panel. Four bolts secure the bottom of the seat cush-
ion frame to the upper half of the power seat track
unit.
The power seat track assembly cannot be repaired,
and is serviced only as a complete assembly. If any
component in this assembly is faulty or damaged, the
entire power seat track must be replaced.
OPERATION
The power seat track unit includes three reversible
electric motors that are secured to the upper half of
the track unit. Each motor moves the seat adjuster
through a combination of worm-drive gearboxes and
screw-type drive units. Each of the three driver side
power seat track motors also has a position potenti-
ometer integral to the motor assembly, which elec-
tronically monitors the motor position.
The front and rear of the seat are operated by two
separate vertical adjustment motors. These motors
can be operated independently of each other, tilting
the entire seat assembly forward or rearward; or,
they can be operated in unison by selecting the
proper power seat switch functions, which will raise
or lower the entire seat assembly. The third motor is
the horizontal adjustment motor, which moves the
seat track in the forward and rearward directions.
