DOOR LOCK RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The power door lock system uses the following
relays for the front and rear passenger doors only:
²Driver door unlock relay
²Door lock relay
²Passenger Doors unlock relay
The tailgate uses outputs from the Body Control
Module (BCM).
The relays are electromechanical devices that
switch battery current to the door lock circuit when
the Body Control Module (BCM) grounds the relay
coil. These relays are located in the Junction Block
(JB). For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
The relays are a International Standards Organi-
zation (ISO) micro-relay. Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions. The ISO micro-relay terminal functions
are the same as a conventional ISO relay. However,
the ISO micro-relay terminal pattern (or footprint) is
different, the current capacity is lower, and the phys-
ical dimensions are smaller than those of the conven-
tional ISO relay.
The relay cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The ISO relay consists of an electromagnetic coil, a
resistor and three (two fixed and one movable) elec-
trical contacts. The movable (common feed) relay con-
tact is held against one of the fixed contacts
(normally closed) by spring pressure. When the elec-
tromagnetic coil is energized, it draws the movable
contact away from the normally closed fixed contact,
and holds it against the other (normally open) fixed
contact.When the electromagnetic coil is de-energized,
spring pressure returns the movable contact to the
normally closed position. The resistor is connected in
parallel with the electromagnetic coil in the relay,
and helps to dissipate voltage spikes that are pro-
duced when the coil is de-energized.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
RELAY
The power lock relays (Fig. 4) are located in the
Junction Block (JB) under the instrument panel. For
complete circuit diagrams, 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.

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.

POWER WINDOWS
DESCRIPTION
The power window system allows each of the door
windows to be raised and lowered electrically by
actuating a switch on the center console. A master
switch on the front of the center console allows the
driver to raise or lower each of the passenger door
windows and to lock out the individual switches on
the rear of the center console from operation. The
power window system receives battery feed through
fuse 13 in the Power Distribution Center (PDC), only
when the ignition switch is in the RUN or ACCES-
SORY position.
OPERATION
WINDOW SWITCH
The power window switches control the battery
and ground feeds to the power window motors. Both
of the rear door power window switches receive their
battery and ground feeds through the circuitry of the
front window switch. When the power window lock-
out switch is in the Lock position, the battery feed
for the rear door window switches is interrupted.
WINDOW MOTOR
Front door window lift motors use permanent type
magnets. The B+ and ground applied at the motor
terminal pins will cause the motor to rotate in one
direction. Reversing current through the motor ter-
minals will cause the motor to rotate in the opposite
direction.
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.

is located on the back side of each vertical member of
the radiator support.
²Passenger Airbag- The passenger airbag is
located on the instrument panel, beneath the passen-
ger airbag door on the instrument panel above the
glove box on the passenger side of the vehicle.
²Passenger Knee Blocker- The passenger knee
blocker is a structural reinforcement that is integral
to and concealed within the glove box door.
²Seat Belt Tensioner- The seat belt tensioner
is integral to the driver side front seat belt retractor
unit on vehicles equipped with dual front airbags.
²Side Impact Airbag Control Module-Two
Side Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM) are
used on vehicles with the optional side curtain air-
bags, one left side and one right side. One SIACM is
located behind the B-pillar trim near the base of each
B-pillar.
²Side Curtain Airbag- In vehicles equipped
with this option, a side curtain airbag is located on
each inside roof side rail above the headliner, and
extends from the A-pillar to just beyond the C-pillar.
The ACM, both SIACMs, and the EMIC each con-
tain a central processing unit and programming that
allow them to communicate with each other using
the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
data bus network. This method of communication is
used by the ACM for control of the airbag indicator
on all models equipped with dual front airbags.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/COMMUNICATION - DESCRIP-
TION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the supplemental
restraint system 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 different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system,
and to the supplemental restraint system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring 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
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
ACTIVE RESTRAINTS The primary passenger
restraints in this or any other vehicle are the stan-
dard equipment factory-installed seat belts. Seat
belts are referred to as an active restraint because
the vehicle occupants are required to physically fas-ten and properly adjust these restraints in order to
benefit from them. See the owner's manual in the
vehicle glove box for more information on the fea-
tures, use and operation of all of the factory-installed
active restraints.
PASSIVE RESTRAINTS The passive restraints
system is referred to as a supplemental restraint sys-
tem because they were designed and are intended to
enhance the protection for the vehicle occupants of
the vehicleonlywhen used in conjunction with the
seat belts. They are referred to as passive systems
because the vehicle occupants are not required to do
anything to make them operate; however, the vehicle
occupants must be wearing their seat belts in order
to obtain the maximum safety benefit from the facto-
ry-installed supplemental restraint systems.
The supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits are continuously monitored and controlled by a
microprocessor and software contained within the
Airbag Control Module (ACM) and, on vehicles
equipped with the side curtain airbags, both Side
Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM). An airbag
indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument Clus-
ter (EMIC) illuminates for about seven seconds as a
bulb test each time the ignition switch is turned to
the On or Start positions. Following the bulb test,
the airbag indicator is turned on or off by the ACM
to indicate the status of the supplemental restraint
system. If the airbag indicator comes on at any time
other than during the bulb test, it indicates that
there is a problem in the supplemental restraint sys-
tem electrical circuits. Such a problem may cause air-
bags not to deploy when required, or to deploy when
not required.
Deployment of the supplemental restraints
depends upon the angle and severity of an impact.
Deployment is not based upon vehicle speed; rather,
deployment is based upon the rate of deceleration as
measured by the forces of gravity (G force) upon the
impact sensors. When an impact is severe enough,
the microprocessor in the ACM or the SIACM signals
the inflator unit of the airbag module to deploy the
airbag. The seat belt tensioner is provided with a
deployment signal by the ACM in conjunction with
the driver airbag. During a frontal vehicle impact,
the knee blockers work in concert with properly fas-
tened and adjusted seat belts to restrain both the
driver and the front seat passenger in the proper
position for an airbag deployment. The knee blockers
also absorb and distribute the crash energy from the
driver and the front seat passenger to the structure
of the instrument panel. The seat belt tensioner
removes the slack from the driver side front seat belt
to provide further assurance that the driver is prop-
erly positioned and restrained for an airbag deploy-
ment.

VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY
DESCRIPTION
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) is an
available factory-installed option on this model (Fig.
1). The VTSS is comprised of two primary sub-
systems: Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) and Sentry Key
Immobilizer System (SKIS). The VTA is an active
system that provides visual and audible responses as
deterrents to and warnings of unauthorized vehicle
tampering. The SKIS is a passive system that effec-
tively immobilizes the vehicle against unauthorized
operation. Following are paragraphs which describe
the various components that are included in each of
these subsystems of the VTSS.
Hard wired circuitry connects many of the VTSS
components to each other through the electrical sys-
tem 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
VTSS components through the use of a combination
of soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many
different types of wire harness terminal connectorsand insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
further details on wire harness routing and reten-
tion, as well as pin-out and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
VEHICLE THEFT ALARM The VTA is available in
two different configurations for this vehicle: One con-
figuration is designed for vehicles manufactured for
sale in North America; while, the other configuration
is designed for vehicles manufactured for sale in
markets outside of North America, also referred to as
Rest-Of-World or ROW. In addition, the VTA for
ROW is available in two versions: base and premium.
All vehicles equipped with VTA are also equipped
with the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and
the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS), regard-
less of their market destination. The North American
and ROW base version of the VTA provides perimeter
vehicle protection by monitoring the vehicle doors,
the tailgate, the rear flip-up glass and, for vehicles
built for certain markets where it is required equip-
ment, the hood. If unauthorized vehicle use or tam-
pering is detected, these systems respond by pulsing
the horn and flashing certain exterior lamps. The
ROW premium version of the VTA is only available
KJVEHICLE THEFT SECURITY 8Q - 1
Theft Security System (VTSS) have a door cylinder
lock switch secured to the back of the key lock cylin-
der inside each front door (Fig. 2). The door cylinder
lock switch is a resistor multiplexed momentary
switch that is hard wired in series between the door
lock switch ground and right or left cylinder lock
switch mux circuits of the Body Control Module
(BCM) through the front door wire harness. The door
cylinder lock switches are driven by the key lock cyl-
inders and contain two internal resistors. One resis-
tor value is used for the Lock position, and one for
the Unlock position.
The door cylinder lock switches cannot be adjusted
or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, they must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The door cylinder lock switches are actuated by the
key lock cylinder when the key is inserted in the lock
cylinder and turned to the lock or unlock positions.
The door cylinder lock switch close a circuit between
the door lock switch ground circuit and the left or
right cylinder lock switch mux circuits through one of
two internal resistors for the Body Control Module
(BCM) when either front door key lock cylinder is in
the Lock, or Unlock positions. The BCM reads the
switch status through an internal pull-up, then uses
this information as an input for the Vehicle Theft
Security System (VTSS) operation.
The door cylinder lock switches and circuits can be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and
methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR CYLINDER
