open ground circuit(s) to ground (G202) as required.
(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
switch output (run-start) circuit between the SKIM
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.
8Q - 8 VEHICLE THEFT SECURITYKJ
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY (Continued)

SECURED ACCESS METHOD
The Secured Access method applies to all vehicles.
This method requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool.
This method 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 the
appropriate diagnostic information for the proper
Secured Access method programming procedures.
CUSTOMER LEARN METHOD
The Customer Learn feature is only available on
domestic vehicles, or those vehicles which have a
U.S. country code designator. This programming
method also requires access to at least two valid Sen-
try Keys. If two valid Sentry Keys are not available,
or if the vehicle does not have a U.S. country code
designator, the Secured Access Methodmustbe used
to program new or additional valid keys to the SKIM.
The Customer Learn programming method proce-
dures are as follows:
(1) Obtain the blank Sentry Key(s) that are to be
programmed as valid keys for the vehicle. Cut the
blank key(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylin-
der mechanical key codes.
(2) Insert one of the two valid Sentry Keys into the
ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the
On position.
(3) After the ignition switch has been in the On
position for longer than three seconds, but no more
than fifteen seconds, cycle the ignition switch back to
the Off position. Replace the first valid Sentry Key in
the ignition switch lock cylinder with the second
valid Sentry Key and turn the ignition switch back to
the On position. The second valid Sentry Key must
be inserted in the lock cylinder within fifteen seconds
of removing the first valid key.
(4) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
3, the SKIS indicator in the instrument cluster will
start to flash and a single audible chime tone will
sound to indicate that the system has entered the
Customer Learn programming mode.
(5) Within sixty seconds of entering the Customer
Learn programming mode, turn the ignition switch to
the Off position, replace the valid Sentry Key with a
blank Sentry Key transponder, and turn the ignition
switch back to the On position.
(6)
About ten seconds after the completion of Step 5,
a single audible chime tone will sound and the SKIS
indicator will stop flashing, stay on solid for three sec-
onds, then turn off to indicate that the blank Sentry
Key has been successfully programmed. The SKIS will
immediately exit the Customer Learn programmingmode and the vehicle may now be started using the
newly programmed valid Sentry Key.
Each of these steps must be repeated and com-
pleted in their entirety for each additional Sentry
Key that is to be programmed. If the above steps are
not completed in the given sequence, or within the
allotted time, the SKIS will exit the Customer Learn
programming mode and the programming will be
unsuccessful. The SKIS will also automatically exit
the Customer Learn programming mode if it sees a
non-blank Sentry Key transponder when it should
see a blank, if it has already programmed eight (8)
valid Sentry Keys, or if the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position for more than about fifty seconds.
NOTE: If an attempt is made to start the vehicle
while in the Customer Learn mode (SKIS indicator
flashing), the SKIS will respond as though the vehi-
cle were being started with an invalid key. In other
words, the engine will stall after about two seconds
of operation. No faults will be set.
NOTE: Once a Sentry Key has been programmed as
a valid key to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed
as a valid key for use on any other vehicle.

HOOD AJAR SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The hood ajar switch is a normally closed, single
pole momentary switch that is used only on vehicles
equipped with the Vehicle Theft Security System
(VTSS) for sale in certain markets where it is
required equipment (Fig. 4). This switch consists of a
molded plastic body with a molded plastic mounting
bezel. The switch body has an integral molded con-nector receptacle on the lower end, while the spring-
loaded switch plunger extends from the upper end.
Two external latches integral to the mounting bezel
lock the switch into a keyed mounting hole in the
stamped steel switch mounting bracket. The mount-
ing bracket is fastened with two screws to the right
inner fender shield near the fender ledge in the
engine compartment. A molded plastic striker with
an integral retainer and mounting tab is secured to
the underside of the hood panel inner reinforcement
to actuate the switch plunger as the hood panel is
closed (Fig. 5). A single take out of the headlamp and
dash wire harness connects the switch to the vehicle
electrical system. The switch receives a path to
ground at all times through another take out of the
headlamp and dash wire harness with an eyelet ter-
minal connector that is secured by a ground screw to
the left inner fender shield in the engine compart-
ment.
The hood ajar switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced. The hood ajar switch striker is not intended

the engine compartment, on the front extension of
the right front wheel house panel below and behind
the right headlamp. This unit is designed to provide
the audible alert requirements for the ROW premium
VTA.
The alarm siren module consists of microprocessor-
based electronic control circuitry, the siren, and a
nickel metal hydride backup battery. All of the alarm
module components are protected and sealed within
a black molded plastic housing. A stamped steel
mounting bracket is secured to the module with
three stud plates and nuts that fit into slotted holes
at the top and each side of the bracket. The front
surface of the bracket features a tightly grouped
series of small holes that serves as an outlet for the
audible output of the alarm siren. The bottom of the
mounting bracket is bent at a right angle and has an
integral locating tab feature. Two mounting holes in
the horizontal surface of the bracket are used to
secure the alarm siren module to the wheel house
extension with two screws. An integral connector
receptacle extends forward from the upper left corner
of the alarm siren housing, and connects the unit to
the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated
take out and connector of the headlamp and dash
wire harness.
The alarm siren module cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The microprocessor within the alarm siren module
performs the tasks required to provide the siren unit
features and functions based upon internal program-
ming and electronic arm and disarm message inputs
received from the Intrusion Transceiver Module
(ITM) over a dedicated serial bus communication cir-
cuit. The alarm siren module will self-detect prob-
lems with its internal and external power supply and
communication circuits, then send electronic mes-
sages indicating the problem to the ITM upon receiv-
ing a request from the ITM. The ITM will store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for a detected alarm
siren module fault that can be retrieved with the
DRBIIItscan tool over the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus network through the
16-way data link connector located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel.
When the Rest-Of-World (ROW) premium version
of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) is armed, the alarm
siren module microprocessor continuously monitors
inputs from the ITM for messages to sound its inter-
nal siren and enters its auto-detect mode. While in
the auto-detect mode, if the alarm siren module
detects that its power supply or communication cir-
cuits are being tampered with or have been sabo-taged, it will sound an alarm and continue to operate
through its on-board backup battery. If the arm siren
module is in its disarmed mode when its power sup-
ply or communication circuits are interrupted, the
siren will not sound. The alarm module will also
notify the ITM when the backup battery requires
charging, and the ITM will send a message that will
allow the backup battery to be charged through the
battery current and ground circuits to the alarm
module only when the ignition switch is in the On
position and the engine is running. This will prevent
the charging of the alarm backup battery from
depleting the charge in the main vehicle battery
while the vehicle is not being operated.
The alarm siren module receives battery current
on a fused B(+) circuit through a fuse in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC), and receives ground
through a ground circuit and take out of the head-
lamp and dash wire harness. This ground take out
has a single eyelet terminal connector that is secured
by a ground screw to the left inner fender shield in
the engine compartment. These connections allow the
alarm siren module to remain operational, regardless
of the ignition switch position. The hard wired inputs
and outputs for the alarm siren module may be diag-
nosed and tested using conventional diagnostic tools
and procedures. However, conventional diagnostic
methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
the internal circuitry or the backup battery of the
alarm siren module, the ITM, the serial bus commu-
nication line, or the electronic message inputs to and
outputs from the alarm siren module. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
alarm siren module, the ITM, the serial bus commu-
nication line, and the electronic message inputs to
and outputs from the alarm siren module requires
the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appro-
priate diagnostic information.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Disconnect the headlamp and dash wire har-
ness connector for the alarm siren module from the
module connector receptacle (Fig. 14).
(3) Remove the two screws that secure the alarm
siren module to the front extension of the right front
wheel house panel.
(4) Remove the alarm siren module from the front
extension of the right front wheel house panel.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the alarm siren module onto the front
extension of the right front wheel house panel (Fig.

(3) Reconnect the headlamp and dash wire harness
connector for the alarm siren module to the module
connector receptacle.
(4) Reconnect the battery negative cable.
NOTE: If the alarm siren module has been replaced
with a new unit, the new unit MUST be configured
in the Intrusion Transceiver Module (ITM) before the
Vehicle Theft Security System can operate as
designed. The use of a DRBIIITscan tool is required
to configure the alarm siren module settings in the
ITM. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic informa-
tion.
TRANSPONDER KEY
DESCRIPTION
Each ignition key used in the Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer System (SKIS) has an integral transponder chip
(Fig. 15). Ignition keys with this feature can be
readily identified by a gray rubber cap molded onto
the head of the key, while conventional ignition keys
have a black molded rubber cap. The transponderchip is concealed beneath the molded rubber cap,
where it is molded within a plastic mount into the
head of the metal key. In addition to being cut to
match the mechanical coding of the ignition lock cyl-
inder, each new Sentry Key has a unique transpon-
der identification code permanently programmed into
it by the manufacturer. The Sentry Key transponder
cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or damaged,
the entire key must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the ignition switch is turned to the On posi-
tion, the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
communicates through its antenna with the Sentry
Key transponder using a Radio Frequency (RF) sig-
nal. The SKIM then listens for a RF response from
the transponder through the same antenna. The Sen-
try Key transponder chip is within the range of the
SKIM transceiver antenna ring when it is inserted
into the ignition lock cylinder. The SKIM determines
whether a valid key is present in the ignition lock
cylinder based upon the response from the transpon-
der. If a valid key is detected, that fact is communi-
cated by the SKIM to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus, and the PCM allows the
engine to continue running. If the PCM receives an
invalid key message, or receives no message from the
SKIM over the PCI data bus, the engine will be dis-
abled after about two seconds of operation. The Elec-
troMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) will also
respond to the invalid key message on the PCI data
bus by flashing the SKIS indicator on and off.

KJFRONT WIPERS/WASHERS 8R - 3
FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS (Continued)

FRONT WASHER HOSES/
TUBES
DESCRIPTION
The front washer plumbing consists of a small
diameter rubber hose that is routed from the barbed
outlet nipple of the reversible electric washer pump/
motor unit on the washer reservoir through a trough
molded into the reservoir forward of the washer
pump and along the reservoir filler neck into the
engine compartment (Fig. 5). Within the engine com-
partment, the front washer hose is routed side by
side with the engine compartment rear washer hose
along the top of the right front fender wheel house to
the dash panel. Molded plastic routing clips secure
the hoses to the headlamp and dash wire harness in
the engine compartment (Fig. 6).
The front washer hose is connected in the engine
compartment to the barbed nipple of a molded plastic
in-line fitting installed through a rubber grommet in
a hole in the right side of the dash plenum panel.
The barbed nipple of the in-line fitting protrudes
through the other side of the rubber grommet into
the cowl plenum area, where the cowl plenum
washer hose joins the front washer hose to the frontcheck valve/wye fitting. The cowl plenum washer
hose is routed through integral routing clips on the
underside of the cowl plenum cover/grille panel to the
molded plastic wye fitting. The cowl plenum washer
hose is connected to one nipple on the wye fitting and
the two washer nozzle hoses are connected to the
other two wye fitting nipples. The washer nozzle
hoses are then routed along the underside of the cowl
plenum cover/grille panel to the two front washer
nozzles.
Washer hose is available for service only as roll
stock, which must then be cut to length. The molded
plastic washer hose fittings cannot be repaired. If
these fittings are faulty or damaged, they must be
replaced.
OPERATION
Washer fluid in the washer reservoir is pressurized
and fed by the washer pump/motor through the front
washer system plumbing and fittings to the two front
washer nozzles. Whenever routing the washer hose
or a wire harness containing a washer hose, it must
be routed away from hot, sharp, or moving parts;
and, sharp bends that might pinch the hose must be
avoided.
