fused panel lamps dimmer switch signal circuit. The
cluster illumination lamps are grounded at all times.
In addition, the control ring on the left (lighting)
control stalk of the multi-function switch has a
Parade Mode position to provide a parade mode. The
BCM monitors the request for this mode from the
multi-function switch, then sends an electronic dim-
ming level message to the EMIC over the PCI data
bus to illuminate all VFDs in the vehicle at full
intensity for easier visibility when driving in daylight
with the exterior lighting turned On.
The hard wired cluster illumination lamp circuits
may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic
methods. However, proper testing of the PWM output
of the EMIC and the electronic dimming level mes-
sages sent by the BCM over the PCI data bus
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
CHIME WARNING SERVICE The EMIC is pro-
grammed to provide chime service when certain indi-
cators are illuminated. When the programmed
conditions are met, the EMIC generates an electronic
chime tone through its integral chime tone generator.
In addition, the EMIC is programmed to provide
chime service for other electronic modules in the
vehicle when it receives the proper electronic chime
request messages over the PCI data bus. Upon
receiving the proper chime request message, the
EMIC activates the integral chime tone generator to
provide the audible chime tone to the vehicle opera-
tor. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/CHIME/BUZZER -
OPERATION). Proper testing of the EMIC and the
PCI data bus chime request message functions
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

The instrument cluster actuator test will put the
instrument cluster into its self-diagnostic mode. In
this mode the instrument cluster can perform a self-
diagnostic test that will confirm that the instrument
cluster circuitry, the gauges, the PCI data bus mes-
sage controlled indicator lamps, and the chime tone
generator are capable of operating as designed. Dur-
ing the actuator test the instrument cluster circuitry
will sound the chime tone generator, position each of
the gauge needles at various specified calibration
points, illuminate each of the segments in the Vacu-um-Fluorescent Display (VFD), and turn all of the
PCI data bus message-controlled indicators on and
off again.
Successful completion of the actuator test will con-
firm that the instrument cluster is operational. How-
ever, there may still be a problem with the PCI data
bus, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the Air-
bag Control Module (ACM), the Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer Module (SKIM), or the inputs to one of these
electronic control modules. Use a DRBIIItscan tool
to diagnose these components. Refer to the appropri-
ate diagnostic information.
(1) Begin the test with the ignition switch in the
Off position.
(2) Depress the odometer/trip odometer switch but-
ton.
(3) While still holding the odometer/trip odometer
switch button depressed, turn the ignition switch to
the On position, but do not start the engine.
(4) Release the odometer/trip odometer switch but-
ton.
(5) The instrument cluster will automatically
begin the actuator test sequence, as follows:
(a) The cluster will turn on, then off again each
of the PCI data bus message controlled indicators
to confirm the functionality of the indicator and
the cluster control circuitry:
(b) The cluster will sweep the needles for each of
the gauges to several calibration points in sequence
to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the
cluster control circuitry:
(c) The cluster will sequentially step the odome-
ter/trip odometer VFD display from all ones
( 111111 )through all nines (999999) to confirm the
functionality of all VFD segments and their control
circuitry, then display the software version number.
(d) The cluster will generate five (5) chime tones
to confirm the functionality of the chime tone gen-
erator and the chime control circuitry.
(6) The actuator test is now completed. The instru-
ment cluster will automatically exit the self-diagnos-
tic mode and return to normal operation at the
completion of the test, if the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position during the test, or if an engine
rpm message indicating that the engine is running is
received from the PCM over the PCI data bus during
the test.
(7) Go back to Step 1 to repeat the test, if
required.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (Continued)

OPERATION
The washer fluid indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator that the fluid level in the washer
reservoir is low. This indicator is controlled by the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board based
upon cluster programming and a hard wired input
received by the cluster from the washer fluid level
switch mounted on the washer reservoir. The washer
fluid indicator function of the Vacuum Fluorescent
Display (VFD) is completely controlled by the instru-
ment cluster logic circuit, and that logic will only
allow this indicator to operate when the instrument
cluster receives a battery current input on the fused
ignition switch output (run-start) circuit. Therefore,
the LED will always be off when the ignition switch
is in any position except On or Start. The instrument
cluster will turn on the washer fluid indicator for the
following reasons:
²Washer Fluid Level Switch Input- Each time
the cluster detects ground on the low washer fluid
sense circuit (washer fluid level switch closed =
washer fluid level low) the cluster applies an algo-
rithm to confirm that the input is correct and not the
result of fluid sloshing in the washer reservoir. The
cluster tests the status of the circuit about seven mil-
liseconds after ignition On, and about once every sec-
ond thereafter, then uses an internal counter to
count up or down. When the counter accumulates
thirty ground inputs on the circuit, the washer fluid
indicator will be illuminated. If the vehicle is not
moving when the washer fluid level switch input
counter reaches thirty, the VFD will repeatedly and
sequentially cycle its indication in two second inter-
vals with the odometer/trip odometer information,
the low washer fluid warning, and any other active
warnings including: door ajar, gate ajar, and glass
ajar. If the vehicle is moving, or once the cluster of a
non-moving vehicle receives an electronic vehicle
speed message from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) indicating a speed greater than zero, the
warning sequence will consist of three complete dis-
play cycles, then revert to only the odometer/trip
odometer display. Once the washer fluid indicator
warning has completed, the washer fluid indicator is
extinguished and will not repeat until the ignition
switch is cycled.
The instrument cluster continually monitors the
washer fluid level switch in the washer reservoir to
determine the status of the washer fluid level. For
further diagnosis of the washer fluid indicator or the
instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indica-
tor, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). The
washer fluid level switch and circuits can be diag-
nosed using conventional diagnostic tools and meth-
ods. The washer fluid level switch also features a 3.3kilohm diagnostic resistor connected in parallel
between the switch input and output to provide the
cluster with verification that the low washer fluid
sense circuit is not open or shorted. This input can
be monitored using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WASHER FLUID
INDICATOR
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
washer fluid indicator condition. If the problem being
diagnosed is related to indicator accuracy, be certain
to confirm that the problem is with the indicator or
washer fluid level switch input and not with a dam-
aged or empty washer fluid reservoir, or inoperative
instrument cluster indicator control circuitry. Inspect
the washer fluid reservoir for proper fluid level and
signs of damage or distortion that could affect
washer fluid level switch performance and perform
the instrument cluster actuator test before you pro-
ceed with the following diagnosis. If no washer fluid
reservoir or instrument cluster control circuitry prob-
lem is found, the following procedure will help to
locate a short or open in the washer fluid switch
sense circuit. 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.

BRAKE LAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The brake lamp switch is a three circuit, spring-
loaded plunger actuated switch that is secured to the
steering column support bracket under the driver
side of the instrument panel (Fig. 3). The brake lamp
switch is contained within a rectangular molded plas-
tic housing with an integral connector receptacle fea-
turing six terminal pins and a red plastic Connector
Position Assurance (CPA) lock. The switch is con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a ded-
icated take out and connector of the instrument
panel wire harness. The switch plunger extends
through a mounting collar on one end of the switch
housing. The plunger has a one time telescoping self-
adjustment feature that is achieved after the switch
is installed by moving an adjustment release lever on
the opposite end of the switch housing clockwise,
until it locks in a position that is parallel to the con-
nector receptacle. The brake lamp switch self-adjust-
ment is a one time feature. Once the feature has
been used, the switch cannot be readjusted. A ªDO
NOT RE-INSTALLº warning is molded into the
switch housing below the connector receptacle.
An installed brake lamp switch cannot be read-
justed or repaired. If the switch is damaged, faulty,
or removed from its mounting position for any rea-
son, it must be replaced with a new unit.
OPERATION
The brake lamp switch controls three different cir-
cuits, one normally open and two normally closed.
These circuits are described as follows:
²Brake Lamp Switch Circuit- A normally
open brake lamp switch circuit receives battery cur-
rent on a fused B(+) circuit from a fuse in the Junc-
tion Block (JB), and supplies battery current to the
brake lamps and the Controller Antilock Brake
(CAB) on a brake lamp switch output circuit when
the brake pedal is depressed (brake lamp switch
plunger released).
²Brake Lamp Switch Signal Circuit- A nor-
mally closed brake lamp switch signal circuit receives
a path to ground through a splice block located in the
instrument panel wire harness with an eyelet termi-
nal connector that is secured by a nut to a ground
stud on the driver side instrument panel end bracket
near the Junction Block (JB). This circuit supplies a
ground input to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) on a brake lamp switch sense circuit when the
brake pedal is released (brake lamp switch plunger is
depressed).
²Speed Control Circuit- A normally closed
speed control circuit receives battery current from
the Powertrain Control Module on a speed control
supply circuit, and supplies battery current to the
speed control servo solenoids (dump, vacuum, and
vent) on a speed control brake switch output circuit
when the speed control system is turned on and the
brake pedal is released (brake lamp switch plunger is
depressed).
Concealed within the brake lamp switch housing
the components of the self-adjusting brake switch
plunger consist of a two-piece telescoping plunger, a
split plunger locking collar, and a release wedge. The
release lever has an integral shaft with a wedge that
spreads the plunger locking collar to an open or
released position. After the switch is installed and
the brake pedal is released, the plunger telescopes to
the correct adjustment position. When the release
lever is moved to the release position, the wedge is
disengaged from the locking collar causing the collar
to apply a clamping pressure to the two plunger
halves fixing the plunger length.
The brake lamp switch can be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.

HEADLAMP LOW BEAM RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp low beam relay is located in the
Junction Block (JB) below the driver side outboard
end of the instrument panel in the passenger com-
partment of the vehicle. The headlamp low beam
relay is a conventional International Standards
Organization (ISO) micro relay (Fig. 37). Relays con-
forming to the ISO specifications have common phys-
ical dimensions, current capacities, terminal
patterns, and terminal functions. The relay is con-
tained within a small, rectangular, molded plastic
housing and is connected to all of the required inputs
and outputs by five integral male spade-type termi-
nals that extend from the bottom of the relay base.
The headlamp low beam relay cannot be adjusted
or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The headlamp low beam relay is an electromechan-
ical switch that uses a low current input from the
Body Control Module (BCM) to control a high current
output to the headlamp low beam filaments. The
movable common feed contact point is held against
the fixed normally closed contact point by spring
pressure. When the relay coil is energized, an electro-
magnetic field is produced by the coil windings. This
electromagnetic field draws the movable relay con-
tact point away from the fixed normally closed con-
tact point, and holds it against the fixed normally
open contact point. When the relay coil is de-ener-
gized, spring pressure returns the movable contact
point back against the fixed normally closed contact
point. A resistor is connected in parallel with the
relay coil in the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage
spikes and electromagnetic interference that can be
generated as the electromagnetic field of the relay
coil collapses.
The headlamp low beam relay terminals are con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a con-
nector receptacle in the Junction Block (JB). The
inputs and outputs of the headlamp low beam relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) receives battery current at all times from a
fuse in the PDC through a fused B(+) circuit.

tor as the steering wheel rotates to the right and
returns to center, which will cancel the turn signal
event and release the control stalk from the detent so
it returns to the neutral Off position. When a turn
signal is activated, the multi-function switch provides
a ground output on a right or left turn switch sense
circuit to the combination flasher circuitry within the
hazard switch, and the combination flasher flashes
the turn signal lamps.
RIGHT CONTROL STALK The right (wiper) con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch operates as fol-
lows:
²Continuous Front Wipe Modes- The control
knob on the end of the multi-function switch right
(wiper) control stalk is rotated to an intermediate
detent that is one detent rearward (counterclockwise)
from the full forward (clockwise) detent to select the
low speed continuous front wiper mode, or to its full
forward (clockwise) detent to select the high speed
continuous front wiper mode. The multi-function
switch provides a resistor multiplexed output to the
Body Control Module (BCM) on a front wiper switch
mux circuit, and the BCM responds by energizing the
wiper on/off relay in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) for the front low speed continuous wipe mode,
or the wiper on/off relay and the wiper high/low relay
in the PDC for the front high speed continuous wipe
mode as required.
²Continuous Rear Wipe Mode- The control
ring on the multi-function switch right (wiper) con-
trol stalk is rotated to the most forward (clockwise)
detent to select the continuous rear wiper mode. The
multi-function switch provides a battery current out-
put to the rear wiper motor on a rear wiper on driver
circuit to signal the rear wiper motor to operate in
the continuous wipe mode.
²Front Washer Mode- The right (wiper) control
stalk of the multi-function switch is pulled towards
the steering wheel to momentarily activate the
washer pump in the front washer mode. The washer
pump will continue to operate in the front washer
mode until the control stalk is released. The multi-
function switch provides a ground output on a
washer pump sense circuit, and battery current on a
washer pump driver circuit to energize the washer
pump in the front washer mode.
²Front Wiper Mist Mode- The right (wiper)
control stalk of the multi-function switch is pushed
towards the floor to momentarily activate the front
wiper motor in the mist mode. The front wiper motor
will continue to operate in the mist mode until the
control stalk is released. The multi-function switch
provides a resistor multiplexed output to the Body
Control Module (BCM) on a front wiper switch mux
circuit, and the BCM responds by energizing the
wiper on/off relay in the Power Distribution Center(PDC) to operate the front wiper motor momentarily
at low speed to provide the front wiper mist mode.
²Intermittent Front Wipe Mode- The control
knob on the end of the multi-function switch right
(wiper) control stalk is rotated to one of five minor
intermediate detents to select the desired intermit-
tent front wipe delay interval. The control knob is
rotated rearward (counterclockwise) to increase the
delay, or forward (clockwise) to decrease the delay.
The multi-function switch provides a resistor multi-
plexed output to the Body Control Module (BCM) on
a front wiper switch mux circuit, and the BCM
responds by energizing the wiper on/off relay in the
Power Distribution Center (PDC) to operate the front
wiper motor at the selected delay intervals.
²Intermittent Rear Wipe Mode- The control
ring on the multi-function switch right (wiper) con-
trol stalk is rotated to the center detent to select the
intermittent rear wiper mode. The multi-function
switch provides a battery current output to the rear
wiper motor on a rear wiper intermittent driver cir-
cuit to signal the rear wiper motor to operate in the
intermittent wipe mode.
²Rear Washer Mode- The control ring on the
multi-function switch right (wiper) control stalk is
rotated to either the full forward (clockwise) or full
rearward (counterclockwise) momentary positions to
activate the washer pump in the rear washer mode.
The washer pump will continue to operate in the rear
washer mode until the control ring is released. The
multi-function switch provides a ground output on a
washer pump driver circuit, and battery current on a
washer pump sense circuit to energize the washer
pump in the rear washer mode.

PARK LAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The park lamp relay is located in the Junction
Block (JB) below the driver side outboard end of the
instrument panel in the passenger compartment of
the vehicle. The park lamp relay is a conventional
International Standards Organization (ISO) micro
relay (Fig. 53). Relays conforming to the ISO specifi-
cations have common physical dimensions, current
capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal functions.
The relay is contained within a small, rectangular,
molded plastic housing and is connected to all of therequired inputs and outputs by five integral male
spade-type terminals that extend from the bottom of
the relay base.
The park lamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The park lamp relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the park lamps. The movable common feed
contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The park lamp relay terminals are connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Junction Block (JB). The inputs and
outputs of the headlamp low beam relay include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the park lamps through
the park lamp relay output circuit and provides
ground to the park lamps when the relay is de-ener-
gized, and battery current to the park lamps when-
ever the relay is energized.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Body
Control Module (BCM) through a park lamp relay
control circuit. The BCM controls park lamp opera-
tion by controlling a ground path through this cir-
cuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a fuse in the PDC through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is connected to ground at all
times through a ground circuit that receives ground
through a splice block located in the instrument
panel wire harness with an eyelet terminal connector
that is secured by a nut to a ground stud on the
