COMBINATION FLASHER
DESCRIPTION
The combination flasher for this model is integral
to the hazard switch located in the center of the
instrument panel, just above the radio. The combina-
tion flasher is a smart relay that functions as both
the turn signal system and the hazard warning sys-
tem flasher. The combination flasher contains active
electronic Integrated Circuitry (IC) elements. This
flasher is designed to handle the current flow
requirements of the factory-installed lighting. If sup-
plemental lighting is added to the turn signal lamp
circuits, such as when towing a trailer with lights,
the combination flasher will automatically try to
compensate to keep the flash rate the same.
The combination flasher cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, the hazard switch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The combination flasher has the following inputs and
outputs: fused B(+), fused ignition switch output, right
turn signal sense, left turn signal sense, and one out-
put each for the right and left turn signal circuits. The
combination flasher also receives an internal input
through the closed contacts of the hazard switch and,
on vehicles equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft
Security System (VTSS), the flasher receives an input
from the Body Control Module (BCM) in order to flash
the turn signal lamps as an optical alert feature of that

(3) Choose one of the three buttons to train. Place
the hand-held transmitter within one inch of the uni-
versal transmitter and push the buttons on both
transmitters. The green dot below the house symbol
will begin to flash slowly.
(4) When the red light on the universal transmit-
ter begins to flash rapidly (this may take as long as
60 seconds), release both buttons. Your universal
transmitter is now ªtrainedº. To train the other but-
tons, repeat Step 3 and Step 4. Be sure to keep your
hand-held transmitter in case you need to retrain the
universal transmitter.
AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Ambient air temperature is monitored by the Com-
pass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) through ambient
temperature sensor messages received from the Body
Control Module (BCM) over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
BCM receives a hard wired input from the ambient
temperature sensor. The ambient temperature sensor
(Fig. 8) is a variable resistor mounted in front the
radiator, behind the grille, near the center of the
vehicle.
Refer toBody Control Modulein Electronic Con-
trol Modules. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to
the appropriate wiring information. The ambient
temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable
resistor that operates on a five-volt reference signal
sent to it by the BCM. The resistance in the sensor
changes as temperature changes, changing the tem-
perature sensor signal circuit voltage to the BCM.
Based upon the resistance in the sensor, the BCM
senses a specific voltage on the temperature sensor
signal circuit, which it is programmed to correspond
to a specific temperature. The BCM then sends the
proper ambient temperature messages to the CMTC
over the PCI data bus.
The thermometer function is supported by the
ambient temperature sensor, a wiring circuit, the
Body Control Module (BCM), the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus, and a por-
tion of the Compass Mini-Trip Computer module.
The ambient temperature sensor circuit can also be
diagnosed by referring toDiagnosis and Testing -
Ambient Temperature Sensor, and Diagnosis
and Testing - Ambient Temperature Sensor Cir-
cuit. If the temperature sensor and circuit are con-
firmed to be OK, but the temperature display is
inoperative or incorrect, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing - Compass Mini-Trip Computerin this
section. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire har-
ness connector.
(2) Measure the resistance of the ambient temper-
ature sensor. At ±40É C (±40É F), the sensor resis-
tance is 336 kilohms. At 55É C (140É F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance
should read between these two values. If OK, refer to
Diagnosis and Testing - Ambient Temperature
Sensor Circuitin this group. If not OK, replace the
faulty ambient temperature sensor.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AMBIENT

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.
8N - 2 POWER LOCKSKJ
POWER LOCKS (Continued)

The tailgate will lock and can not be unlocked if
the rear wiper switch is activated. The tailgate will
also lock if battery power is lost and then restored.
The tailgate/flip-up glass will not function with the
battery discharged or disconnected.
COMBINATION FLASHER
This flasher can be energized by the BCM to flash
all of the park/turn signal lamps as a optical alert for
the RKE panic function and, if the Flash Lights with
Lock programmable feature is enabled, as an optical
verification for the RKE lock event.
HORN RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to sound
the horns as an audible alert for the RKE panic func-
tion and, if the Sound Horn on Lock programmable
feature is enabled, as an audible verification for the
RKE lock event.
LOW BEAM HEADLAMP RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to flash
the headlamp low beams as an optical alert for the
RKE panic function.
OPERATION
POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. All passenger doors can be
locked or unlocked using a mechanical button
mounted on the door trim panel. The front passenger
doors and tailgate can be locked or unlocked by using
the key cylinder (tailgate cylinder does not lock/un-
lock vehicle. It only unlocks the tailgate). The tail-
gate will lock and can not be unlocked if the rear
wiper switch is activated (this prevents the wiper
from operating when the tailgate is ajar). The tail-
gate will also lock if battery power is lost and then
restored.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
When the automatic door locks are ENABLED the
door locks will lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors are closed and
the accelerator pedal is depressed. This feature can
be switched ON or OFF as desired. When the system
is DISABLED the door locks will operate normally,
but will not lock automatically when the vehicle is
rolling. Once the automatic door locks have been
actuated, they will not try to lock the doors again
until a door is opened.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, the doors can not be locked,
but the unlock function still operates. Pressing the
RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions will
result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock relays. If the door
lock switch is actuated continuously for more than
five seconds the BCM will turn the output driver
OFF (the BCM would consider the switch stuck).
Each lock motor is protected with a Positive Temper-
ature Coefficient device that prevents motor burn
out.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
²LOCK: Pressing the LOCK button locks all
doors, sounds horn (chirp) if enabled, and arms the
Vehicle Theft Security System, if enabled. The chirp
verifies that the RKE receiver has sent a message to
the BCM for door lock operation. If a door has not
been closed before pressing the LOCK button, the
vehicle may not be secured and the VTSS (if
equipped) will not arm until the door is closed.
²UNLOCK: Pressing the UNLOCK button once
will unlock the driver's door and activate the illumi-
nated entry system and disarm Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System, if equipped. Pressing the UNLOCK
button twice within five seconds will unlock all doors.
²TAILGATE: Pressing the TAILGATE BUTTON
unlocks the tailgate remotely and opens the flip-up
glass.
²PANIC: Pressing the PANIC button sounds the
horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s) in
its memory even after vehicle power has been inter-
rupted.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) enters a
reduced power mode after the key is turned
OFF. All diagnosis and testing of the power lock
system must be done with the key in the ON
position unless otherwise stated.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the power lock system
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
When an RKE lock message is sent to the Body
Control Module (BCM), the BCM actuates the doors
and the tailgate lock, the interior lighting is turned
off, the horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the
exterior lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if
the vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock mes-
sage is sent to the BCM, the BCM actuates the
driver side front door (or all doors and the tailgate if
this feature is enabled) unlock, the interior lighting
is turned on and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the
VTSS is disarmed.When an RKE panic message is sent to the BCM,
the BCM actuates the driver side front door (or all
doors and the tailgate if this feature is enabled)
unlock, the interior lighting is turned on and, if the
vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed. The
panic message will also cause the exterior lamps
(including the headlights) to flash, and the horn to
pulse for about three minutes, or until a second panic
message is sent to the BCM. A vehicle speed of about
25.7 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will also
cancel the panic event.
Refer to the owner's manual for more information
on the features, use and operation of the RKE sys-
tem.
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted,
the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will retain
all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replac-
ing or adding a key fob transmitter (maximum of 4) a
DRB IIItscan tool is required to program the RKE
Module to accept the new Vehicle Access Code if a
customer owned transmitter is not available.

(current) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) data.
(6) Next, use the DRBIIItto read and record any
stored (historical) DTC data.
(7) If any DTC is found in Step 5 or Step 6, refer
to the appropriate diagnostic information.
(8) Use the DRBIIItto erase the stored DTC data.
If any problems remain, the stored DTC data will not
erase. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic informa-
tion to diagnose any stored DTC that will not erase.
If the stored DTC information is successfully erased,
go to Step 9.
(9) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position for
about fifteen seconds, and then back to the On posi-
tion. Observe the airbag indicator in the instrument
cluster. It should illuminate for six to eight seconds,and then go out. This indicates that the supplemen-
tal restraint system is functioning normally and that
the repairs are complete. If the airbag indicator fails
to light, or lights and stays on, there is still an active
supplemental restraint system fault or malfunction.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information to
diagnose the problem.
AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Airbag Control Module (ACM) is also some-
times referred to as the Occupant Restraint Control-
ler (ORC) (Fig. 6). The ACM is secured with two long
screws within a tray-like stamped steel mounting
bracket welded onto the top of the floor panel trans-
mission tunnel forward of the instrument panel cen-
ter support bracket and below the instrument panel
center stack in the passenger compartment of the
vehicle.
Concealed within a hollow in the center of the die
cast aluminum ACM housing is the electronic cir-
cuitry of the ACM which includes a microprocessor,
an electronic impact sensor, an electromechanical saf-
ing sensor, and an energy storage capacitor. A
stamped metal cover plate is secured to the bottom of
the ACM housing with four screws to enclose and
protect the internal electronic circuitry and compo-
nents. An arrow cast into the top of the ACM housing
near the front provides a visual verification of the
proper orientation of the unit, and should always be
pointed toward the front of the vehicle.

SKIS INDICATOR FAILS TO LIGHT DURING BULB TEST
If the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indi-
cator in the instrument cluster fails to illuminate for
about three seconds after the ignition switch is
turned to the On position (bulb test), perform the
instrument cluster actuator test. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING). If the SKIS indicator still fails to
light during the bulb test, a wiring problem resulting
in the loss of battery current or ground to the Sentry
Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) should be sus-
pected, and the following procedure should be used
for diagnosis. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
details of wire harness routing and retention, connec-
tor pin-out information and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
NOTE: The following tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
Sentry Key Immobilizer System requires the use of
a DRBIIITscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diag-
nostic information.(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse (Fuse 33 - 10
ampere) in the Junction Block (JB). If OK, go to Step
2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component
as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
(Fuse 33 - 10 ampere) in the JB. If OK, go to Step 3.
If not OK, repair the open B(+) circuit between the
JB and the battery as required.
(3) Check the fused ignition switch output (run-
start) fuse (Fuse 15 - 10 ampere) in the JB. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or
component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run-start) fuse (Fuse 15 - 10 ampere) in the
JB. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open

(6) Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
instrument panel wire harness connector for the
SKIM. If OK, go to Step 7. If not OK, repair the open
fused B(+) circuit between the SKIM and the JB as
required.
(7) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run-start) circuit cavity of the instrument
panel wire harness connector for the SKIM. If OK,
use a DRBIIItscan tool to complete the diagnosis of
the SKIS. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation. If not OK, repair the open fused ignition

and the JB as required.
SKIS INDICATOR FLASHES UPON IGNITION ªONº OR
LIGHTS SOLID FOLLOWING BULB TEST
A SKIS indicator that flashes following the ignition
switch being turned to the On position indicates that
an invalid key has been detected, or that a key-re-
lated fault has been set. A SKIS indicator that lights
solid following a successful bulb test indicates that
the SKIM has detected a system malfunction or that
the SKIS is inoperative. In either case, fault informa-
tion will be stored in the SKIM memory. For retrieval
of this fault information and further diagnosis of the
SKIS, the PCI data bus, the SKIM electronic mes-
sage outputs to the instrument cluster that control
the SKIS indicator and chime, or the electronic mes-
sage inputs and outputs between the SKIM and the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) that control
engine operation, a DRBIIItscan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information. Fol-
lowing are preliminary troubleshooting guidelines to
be followed during diagnosis using a DRBIIItscan
tool:
(1) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, read and record
the faults as they exist in the SKIM when you first
begin your diagnosis of the vehicle. It is important to
document these faults because the SKIM does not
differentiate between historical faults (those that
have occurred in the past) and active faults (those
that are currently present). If this problem turns out
to be an intermittent condition, this information may
become invaluable to your diagnosis.
(2) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, erase all of the
faults from the SKIM.
(3) Cycle the ignition switch to the Off position,
then back to the On position.
(4) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, read any faults
that are now present in the SKIM. These are the
active faults.(5) Using this active fault information, refer to the
proper procedure in the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation for the specific additional diagnostic steps.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - SKIS
INITIALIZATION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) must
be initialized following a Sentry Key Immobilizer
Module (SKIM) replacement. SKIS initialization
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Initialization
will also require that you have access to the unique
four-digit PIN code that was assigned to the original
SKIM. The PIN codemustbe used to enter the
Secured Access Mode in the SKIM. This PIN number
may be obtained from the vehicle owner, from the
original vehicle invoice, or from the DaimlerChrysler
Customer Center. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELEC-
TRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PRO-
CEDURE - PCM/SKIM PROGRAMMING).
NOTE: If a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is
replaced on a vehicle equipped with the Sentry Key
Immobilizer System (SKIS), the unique Secret Key
data must be transferred from the Sentry Key
Immobilizer Module (SKIM) to the new PCM using
the PCM replacement procedure. This procedure
also requires the use of a DRBIIITscan tool and the
unique four-digit PIN code to enter the Secured
Access Mode in the SKIM. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information for the proper PCM replace-
ment procedures.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - SENTRY KEY
TRANSPONDER PROGRAMMING
All Sentry Keys included with the vehicle are pre-
programmed to work with the Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer System (SKIS) when it is shipped from the
factory. The Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
can be programmed to recognize up to a total of eight
Sentry Keys. When programming a blank Sentry Key
transponder, the key must first be cut to match the
ignition switch lock cylinder in the vehicle for which
it will be used. Once the additional or new key has
been cut, the SKIM must be programmed to recog-
nize it as a valid key. There are two possible methods
to program the SKIM to recognize a new or addi-
tional valid key, the Secured Access Method and the
Customer Learn Method. Following are the details of
these two programming methods.
