continuous duty for 110/115 volts and 60 Hz. They
must also have a field strength of over 350 gauss at 7
millimeters (0.25 inch) beyond the tip of the probe.
To demagnetize the roof panel and the overhead
console forward mounting screw, proceed as follows:
(1) Be certain that the ignition switch is in the Off
position, before you begin the demagnetizing proce-
dure.
(2) Connect the degaussing tool to an electrical
outlet, while keeping the tool at least 61 centimeters
(2 feet) away from the compass unit.
(3) Slowly approach the head of the overhead con-
sole forward mounting screw with the degaussing
tool connected.
(4) Contact the head of the screw with the plastic
coated tip of the degaussing tool for about two sec-
onds.
(5) With the degaussing tool still energized, slowly
back it away from the screw. When the tip of the tool
is at least 61 centimeters (2 feet) from the screw
head, disconnect the tool.
(6) Place a piece of paper approximately 22 by 28
centimeters (8.5 by 11 inches), oriented on the vehicle
lengthwise from front to rear, on the center line of
the roof at the windshield header (Fig. 4). The pur-
pose of the paper is to protect the roof panel from
scratches, and to define the area to be demagnetized.
(7) Connect the degaussing tool to an electrical
outlet, while keeping the tool at least 61 centimeters
(2 feet) away from the compass unit.
(8) Slowly approach the center line of the roof
panel at the windshield header, with the degaussing
tool connected.
(9) Contact the roof panel with the plastic coated
tip of the degaussing tool. Be sure that the template
is in place to avoid scratching the roof panel. Using a
slow, back-and-forth sweeping motion, and allowing
13 millimeters (0.50 inch) between passes, move the
tool at least 11 centimeters (4 inches) to each side of
the roof center line, and 28 centimeters (11 inches)
back from the windshield header.
(10) With the degaussing tool still energized,
slowly back it away from the roof panel. When the
tip of the tool is at least 61 centimeters (2 feet) from
the roof panel, disconnect the tool.
(11) Calibrate the compass and adjust the compass
variance (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
VARIATION ADJUSTMENT
Compass variance, also known as magnetic decli-
nation, is the difference in angle between magnetic
north and true geographic north. In some geographic
locations, the difference between magnetic and geo-
graphic north is great enough to cause the compassto give false readings. If this problem occurs, the
compass variance setting may need to be changed.
To set the compass variance:
(1) Using the Variance Settings map, find your
geographic location and note the zone number (Fig.
5).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. If
the compass/thermometer data is not currently being
displayed, momentarily depress and release the C/T
push button to reach the compass/thermometer dis-
play.
(3) Depress the Reset push button and hold the
button down until ªVARIANCE = XXº appears in the
display. This takes about five seconds.
(4) Release the Reset push button. ªVARIANCE
=XX º will remain in the display. ªXXº equals the cur-
rent variance zone setting.
(5) Momentarily depress and release the Step push
button to step through the zone numbers, until the
zone number for your geographic location appears in
the display.
(6) Momentarily depress and release the Reset
push button to enter the displayed zone number into
the CMTC module memory.
(7) Confirm that the correct directions are now
indicated by the compass.

COMPASS/MINI-TRIP
COMPUTER
DESCRIPTION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) is
located in the overhead console on models equipped
with this option. The Compass Mini-Trip Computer
module features a large Vacuum Fluorescent Display
(VFD) screen for displaying information, and four
back-lit push button function switches labeled C/T
(compass/thermometer), RESET, STEP, and US/M
(United States/Metric Scale).
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer module contains
a central processing unit and interfaces with other
electronic modules in the vehicle over the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus net-
work. The PCI data bus network allows the sharing
of sensor information. This helps to reduce wire har-
ness complexity, reduce internal controller hardware,
and reduce component sensor current loads. At the
same time, this system provides increased reliability,
enhanced diagnostics, and allows the addition of
many new feature capabilities.
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer module contains
six informational displays which can be displayed
using the four outer buttons on the overhead console.
When the vehicle is first turned ON:
²CMTC blanks the display for a half second
²Displays whatever was being viewed when the
ignition was last turned OFF

For more information on the features, control func-
tions and setting procedures for the CMTC module,
see the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMPASS
MINI-TRIP COMPUTER
The following diagnostic procedure can be used if
the compass mini-trip computer is not operational in
any way. If the problem is specific to a individual
CMTC display, go to the appropriate display title
noted below and diagnose using the information pro-
vided on how these displays are generated.
(1) Remove the overhead console from the head-
liner (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE - REMOVAL).
(2) Using a ohmmeter, check the ground circuit
cavity of the compass mini-trip computer electricalconnector for proper continuity to ground. Continuity
should be present, If OK go to Step 3, If not OK
repair the open or shorted ground circuit as required.
NOTE: Connect the negative battery cable before
proceeding.
(3) Using a voltmeter, check the fused (B+) circuit
cavity of the compass mini-trip computer electrical
connector for 12v. Voltage should be present, If OK go
to Step 4, If not OK repair the open or shorted fused
(B+) circuit as required.
(4) Using a voltmeter, check the fused ignition
switch output circuit cavity of the compass mini-trip
computer electrical connector for 12v with Key ON.
Voltage should be present, If OK, replace the inoper-
ative CMTC module, If not OK repair the open or
shorted fused ignition switch output circuit as
required.
TEMPERATURE
The compass mini-trip computer receives Program-
mable Communications Interface bus (PCI bus) mes-
sages from the Body Control Module (BCM) for all
displayed information except the compass display. If
a dash (-) is displayed, the compass mini-trip com-
puter is not receiving a PCI bus message from the
BCM. To check out the PCI bus line and the BCM,
use the DRB llltscan tool and proper Body Diagnos-
tic Procedure Manual.
If the compass mini-trip computer displays a tem-
perature more than 54É C (130É F), check for a short
circuit between the temperature sensor and the
BCM.
If the compass mini-trip computer displays a tem-
perature less than -40É C (-67É F), check for an open
circuit between the temperature sensor and the
BCM.
AVERAGE FUEL ECONOMY
The compass mini-trip computer receives average
fuel economy information from the BCM over the PCI
bus line. If the compass mini-trip computer displays
-.- instead of an average fuel economy value, it is not
receiving a PCI bus message for the average fuel
economy from the BCM. To check out the PCI bus
line and the BCM use the DRB llltscan tool and
proper Body Diagnostic Procedure Manual.
DISTANCE TO EMPTY
The compass mini-trip computer receives distance
to empty information from the BCM over the PCI bus
line. If compass mini-trip computer displays a dash
(-) instead of a distance to empty value, it is not
receiving a PCI bus message for the distance to
empty from the BCM. To check out the PCI bus line

(3) Check for continuity between the sensor return
circuit and the ambient temperature sensor signal
circuit cavities of the BCM wire harness connector.
There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 4. If not
OK, repair the open sensor return circuit or ambient
temperature sensor signal circuit to the ambient tem-
perature sensor as required.
(4) Remove the jumper wire from the body half of
the ambient temperature sensor wire harness con-
nector. Check for continuity between the sensor
return circuit cavity of the BCM wire harness con-
nector and a good ground. There should be no conti-
nuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the
shorted sensor return circuit as required.

DESCRIPTION
POWER LOCKS
A power operated door and tailgate lock system is
available factory-installed equipment on this model.
The power lock system allows all of the doors and thetailgate to be locked or unlocked electrically by oper-
ating a switch on either front door trim panel. The
power lock system receives non-switched battery cur-
rent through a fuse in the Junction Block (JB), so
that the power locks remain operational, regardless
of the ignition switch position.
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks the doors
and tailgate automatically when the vehicle is driven
beyond the speed of 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors
KJPOWER SYSTEMS 8N - 1

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.

proper Diagnostic Procedures 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 relays for
them to perform their power lock system func-
tions.
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power lock
system. However, these tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. In order to
obtain conclusive testing of the power lock system,
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus network and all of the electronic modules
that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the
power lock system components must be checked.
The Body Control Module (BCM) will set Diagnos-
tic Trouble Codes (DTC) for the power lock system.
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.
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
As a preliminary diagnosis for the power lock sys-
tem, note the system operation while you actuate
both the Lock and Unlock functions with the power
lock switches and with the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. Then, proceed as follows:
²If the entire power lock system fails to function
with either the power lock switches or the RKE
transmitter, check the fused B(+) fuse in the junction
Block (JB).
²If the power lock system functions with both
power lock switches, but not with the RKE transmit-
ter, proceed to diagnosis of the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING) or (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
²If the power lock system functions with the RKE
transmitter, but not with one or both power lock
switches, proceed to diagnosis of the door lock
switches. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/POWER LOCK SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING).
²If the driver side power lock switch operates
only the driver side front door power lock motor, but
all other power lock motors operate with the passen-
ger side power lock switch or the RKE transmitter,
use a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnos-tic information to diagnose the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus.
²If only one power lock motor fails to operate
with both power lock switches and the RKE trans-
mitter, proceed to diagnosis of the power lock motor.

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
