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

REAR WIPERS/WASHERS
DESCRIPTION
An electrically operated fixed interval intermittent
rear wiper and washer system is standard factory-in-
stalled equipment on this model (Fig. 1). The rear
wiper and washer system includes the following
major components, which are described in further
detail elsewhere in this service information:
²Multi-Function Switch- The multi-function
switch is located on the top of the steering column,
just below the steering wheel. The multi-function
switch includes a left (lighting) control stalk and a
right (wiper) control stalk. The right control stalk is
dedicated to providing all of the driver controls for
both the front and rear wiper systems. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH - DESCRIPTION).
²Rear Check Valve- The rear washer system
check valve is located in the washer plumbing
between the rear roof header and the roof outer
panel near the rear washer nozzle.
²Rear Washer Nozzle- The rear washer nozzle
is secured by a snap fit into a mounting hole in the
roof outer panel above the rear flip-up glass opening.²Rear Washer Plumbing- The plumbing for
the rear washer system consists of rubber hoses and
molded plastic fittings. The plumbing is routed along
the right side of the engine compartment from the
washer reservoir, through the dash into the passen-
ger compartment, up the right cowl side and A-pillar
to the headliner, and above the headliner to the rear
washer nozzle fitting within the rear roof header.
²Rear Wiper Arm- The single rear wiper arm is
secured by a nut directly to the rear wiper motor out-
put shaft, which extends through the center of the
tailgate outer panel near the base of the rear flip-up
glass.
²Rear Wiper Arm Park Ramp- The molded
rubber rear wiper arm park ramp is secured with a
screw to the tailgate outer panel to the right of the
rear wiper motor output shaft bezel. When the rear
wiper system is not in operation, the rear wiper arm
is parked off of the rear flip-up glass on this ramp so
that it will not interfere with or be damaged by the
flip-up glass operation.
²Rear Wiper Blade- The single rear wiper
blade is secured to the rear wiper arm with an inte-
gral latch, and is parked off of the rear flip-up glass
when the rear wiper system is not in operation.

WIRING DIAGRAM
INFORMATION
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING
DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are
designed to provide information regarding the vehi-
cles wiring content. In order to effectively use the
wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important
to understand all of their features and characteris-
tics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+)
side of the circuit is placed near the top of the page,
and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near
the bottom of the page (Fig. 1).
All switches, components, and modules are shown
in the at rest position with the doors closed and the
key removed from the ignition (Fig. 2).Components are shown two ways. A solid line
around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indi-
cates that the component is being shown is not com-
plete. Incomplete components have a reference
number to indicate the page where the component is
shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made
on the diagrams to represent components and wiring
as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short
piece of wire is treated the same as a long one. In
addition, switches and other components are shown
as simply as possible, with regard to function only.
SYMBOLS
International symbols are used throughout the wir-
ing diagrams. These symbols are consistent with
those being used around the world (Fig. 3).
