2003 CHRYSLER CARAVAN wiring

WIRE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - WIRE SPLICING
When splicing a wire, it is important that the cor-
rect gage be used as shown in the wiring diagrams.
(1) Remove one-half (1/2) inch of insulation from
each wire that needs to be spliced.
(2) Place a piece of adhesive lined heat shrink tub-
ing on one side of the wire. Make sure the tubing will
be long enough to cover and seal the entire repair
area.
(3) Place the strands of wire overlapping each
other inside of the splice clip (Fig. 14).
(4) Using crimping tool, Mopar p/n 05019912AA,
crimp the splice clip and wires together (Fig. 15).(5) Solder the connection together using rosin core
type solder only (Fig. 16).
CAUTION: DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER.
(6) Center the heat shrink tubing over the joint
and heat using a heat gun. Heat the joint until the
tubing is tightly sealed and sealant comes out of both
ends of the tubing (Fig. 17).

POWER DISTRIBUTION
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
This group covers the various standard and
optional power distribution components used on this
model. The power distribution system for this vehicle
consists of the following components:
²Integrated Power Module (IPM)
²Front Control Module (FCM)
²Power Outlets
Refer to Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit sche-
matics.
The power distribution system also incorporates
various types of circuit control and protection fea-
tures, including:
²Automatic resetting circuit breakers
²Blade-type fuses
²Bus bars
²Cartridge fuses
²Circuit splice blocks
²Flashers
²Fusible links
²RelaysFollowing are general descriptions of the major
components in the power distribution system. See the
owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features and use of all of the
power distribution system components.
OPERATION
The power distribution system for this vehicle is
designed to provide safe, reliable, and centralized dis-
tribution points for the electrical current required to
operate all of the many standard and optional facto-
ry-installed electrical and electronic powertrain,
chassis, safety, security, comfort and convenience sys-
tems. At the same time, the power distribution sys-
tem was designed to provide ready access to these
electrical distribution points for the vehicle techni-
cian to use when conducting diagnosis and repair of
faulty circuits. The power distribution system can
also prove useful for the sourcing of additional elec-
trical circuits that may be required to provide the
electrical current needed to operate many accessories
that the vehicle owner may choose to have installed
in the aftermarket.

SPECIAL TOOLS
POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
ACCESSORY RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The accessory relay is an electromechanical device
that switches fused battery current to the accessory
powered vehicle circuits when the ignition switch is
turned to the Accessory or On positions. The delay
feature will maintain power to the accessories for 45
seconds after the ignition is shut off or until a door is
opened. This allows sufficient time to close windows
and park the windshield wipers. The accessory relay
is located in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) in
the engine compartment.
The accessory relay is a International Standards
Organization (ISO) relay. Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions.
The accessory 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 or diode, and three (two fixed and one mov-
able) electrical contacts. The movable (common feed)
relay contact 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 or diode is con-
nected in parallel with the electromagnetic coil in therelay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes that are
produced when the coil is de-energized.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - ACCESSORY RELAY
The accessory relay (Fig. 1) is located in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM), in the engine compart-
ment. For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring
Diagrams.
(1) Remove the accessory relay from the IPM.
Refer toAccessory Relayin the Removal and
Installation section of this group for the procedure.
(2) A relay in the de-energized position should
have continuity between terminals 87A and 30, and
no continuity between terminals 87 and 30. If OK, go
to Step 3. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(3) Resistance between terminals 85 and 86 (elec-
tromagnet) should be 75   5 ohms. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(4) Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86.
There should now be continuity between terminals
30 and 87, and no continuity between terminals 87A
and 30. If OK, perform the Relay Circuit Test that
follows. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - RELAY CIRCUIT TEST
(1) The relay common feed terminal cavity (30) of
the IPM is connected to battery voltage and should
be hot at all times. Check for battery voltage at the
fused B(+) circuit cavity in the IPM receptacle for the
accessory relay. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair
the fused B(+) circuit to the IPM fuse as required.
(2) The relay normally closed terminal (87A) is
connected to terminal 30 in the de-energized position,
but is not used for this application. Go to Step 3.
(3) The relay normally open terminal (87) is con-
nected to the common feed terminal (30) in the ener-
gized position. This terminal supplies battery voltage

module. The IPM cover is unlatched and opened or
removed to access the fuses or relays. Internal con-
nections of all of the power distribution center cir-
cuits is accomplished by a combination of bus bars
and a printed circuit board. Refer to the Wiring sec-
tion of the service manual for complete IPM circuit
schematics.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the negative and positive battery
cables.
(2) Remove the battery thermal guard from the
vehicle. Refer to the Battery section for the proce-
dure.
(3) Remove the battery from the vehicle. Refer to
the Battery section for the procedure.
(4) Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, twist the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) bracket retaining latch
outward to free the intelligent power module from its
mounting bracket (Fig. 3).
(5) Rotate the IPM counter-clockwise to access and
disconnect the various electrical connectors (Fig. 4).
(6) Free the IPM from its mounting bracket by
removing the IPM bracket clips from the hinge. A
screwdriver slipped up from under the hinge will free
the clips.
INSTALLATION
(1) Snap the left side of the Integrated Power Mod-
ule (IPM) housing in its mounting bracket and con-
nect the various electrical connectors. Care must be
taken that the Connector Positive Assurance (CPA)on the five-pin B+ connector is positively engaged to
prevent generating a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
NOTE: IPM electrical connectors are color coded to
ease location reference.
(2) Being certain no wires are stressed or pinched,
rotate the IPM clock-wise until secured in mounting
bracket. An audible click may be heard.
(3) Install the battery in the vehicle. Refer to the
Battery section for the procedure.
(4) Install the battery thermal guard in the vehi-
cle. Refer to the Battery section for the procedure.
(5) Connect the negative and positive battery
cables.
(6) Using a diagnostic scan tool, check for any
stored diagnostic trouble codes and correct, check
that all vehicle options are operational before return-
ing the vehicle to service.
IOD FUSE
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed from its normal
cavity in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) when
the vehicle is shipped from the factory. Dealer per-
sonnel are to remove the IOD fuse from the storage
location and install it into the IPM fuse cavity
marked IOD as part of the preparation procedures
performed just prior to new vehicle delivery.
