2003 CHRYSLER CARAVAN key

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
The key fob transmitter (Fig. 1) has six buttons.
Three of them, LOCK, UNLOCK, and PANIC, are
used to actuate parts of, and program the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) system via the customer pro-
gramming mode. It is not necessary to use the
PANIC button with the DRB IIItscan tool mode of
programming.
OPERATION
POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. The BCM locks the doors auto-
matically when the vehicle is driven beyond the
speed of 25.7 Km/h (16 mph). The rolling door lock
feature can be disabled if desired. All doors and lift-
gate can be locked or unlocked using mechanical but-
ton or key cylinder methods (Liftgate cylinder does
not lock/unlock vehicle. It only unlocks the liftgate).
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
The BCM is equipped with a disable feature to
stop the speed sensitive automatic door locks from
functioning. The DISABLE feature can be switchedON or OFF as desired. When the system is DIS-
ABLED the door locks will operate normally, but will
not lock automatically when the vehicle is rolling.
When the door locks are ENABLED the door locks
will automatically lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (16 mph). All doors are closed, the
PCM has set the ªOK TO LOCKº bit, and doors were
not previously locked.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, all power door lock function-
ing shall be disabled when activating either door lock
switch. Also, if the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) is
armed, the door lock switch ªUNLOCKº feature will
be disabled until the vehicle is disarmed. Pressing
the RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions
will result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
CENTRAL LOCKING
If equipped with Vehicle Theft Security System
(VTSS), all the doors can be locked with the key by
using any of the door lock cylinders. Turning the key
to the LOCK position will lock all the doors.
When the driver door key cylinder switch is
detected active, the BCM will activate the illumi-
nated entry feature and the individual front doors
will become mechanically unlocked. To central unlock
all doors, a second transition from OFF to UNLOCK
has to occur within 2 seconds of the first complete
UNLOCK cycle.
To central unlock the driver door, turn the key to
the rear of the vehicle. This indicates an unlock sig-
nal to the BCM. When key cylinder switch is
detected as active, the BCM will activate the illumi-
nated entry feature. The individual doors will become
mechanically unlocked.
To central lock the vehicle, the driver door lock cyl-
inder is turned toward the front of the vehicle. When
a lock input from either key cylinder is detected as
active, the BCM will cancel the illuminated entry
feature and perform the central lock operation.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock output drivers. If
the door lock switch is actuated continuously for
more than one second the BCM will turn the output
driver OFF (the BCM would consider the switch
stuck). The lock motors are protected with Positive
Temperature Coefficient (PTC) device that prevents
motor burn out.

The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s)
(VAC) in its memory even after vehicle power has
been interrupted.
NOTE: Additional features available to the customer
are described in the Vehicle Owners Manual.
The RKE system activates the optional memory
seat, mirror system and adjustable pedals, if
equipped. Two primary key fob transmitters can be
programmed to actuate memory seat and mirror set-
ting 1 or 2. Two additional key fob transmitters can
be added, but they will not be able to operate the
memory seat and mirror system (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/POWER SEATS - OPERATION) and (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS - OPERA-
TION).
DOOR CYLINDER LOCK
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The Door Cylinder Lock Switch is used to:
²Unlock/Lock all the doors via the Central Lock-
ing feature.
²Arm/Disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System.
²Trigger the Illuminated Entry feature.
The door cylinder lock switch is mounted to the
rear of the driver door lock cylinder. When installed
on the rear of the cylinder, there is a tab on the lock
cylinder that aligns with the switch to prevent it
from turning. An anti-rotating device. The door cylin-
der lock switch is a one time use switch. Once it is
removed from the rear of the door lock cylinder, it
may not be reinstalled and a new switch must be
used.
OPERATION
When the Door Cylinder Lock Switch is turned
either way using the door key cylinder, the BCM
reads a direct message signal from the switch.
If turning the key cylinder once, toward the front
of the vehicle, this will:
(1) Mechanically unlock the door lock.
(2) Disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System (if
equipped).
(3) Turn on the Illuminated Entry (if equipped) for
approximately 30 seconds.
If the key cylinder is turned to the unlock position
(toward the front of vehicle) twice within two sec-
onds, all the doors and liftgate will unlock (if
equipped with the central locking feature).
To lock the vehicle using the door cylinder lock
switch, turn the key cylinder toward the rear of the
vehicle once. This will lock the door that you are
using the key on. If equipped with the central locking
feature, this will lock all the other doors and liftgate.
Furthermore, this will arm the vehicle theft security
system and turn off the illuminated entry.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit dia-
grams. Following are general descriptions and opera-
tions for the major components in the power seat
system and memory seat system.
DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYSTEM
An electronic memory system is available on some
models. The memory system is able to store and
recall the driver side power seat positions (including
the power recliner position) and both outside side
view mirrors positions for two drivers. On vehicles
equipped with a factory radio, the memory system is
also able to store and recall radio station presets fortwo drivers. The memory system also will store and
recall the last station listened to for each driver, even
if it is not one of the preset stations.
The memory system will automatically return to
its preset settings when the corresponding numbered
button of the memory switch is depressed, or when
the doors are unlocked using the corresponding
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A customer
programmable feature of the memory system allows
the RKE recall of memory features to be disabled, if
desired. This programmable feature is internal in the
EVIC module, which is located in the overhead con-
sole.
A Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) is used on
some models to control and integrate the many elec-
tronic functions and features included in the memory
seat and mirror systems.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM)
²Memory set switch
²Position potentiometers on both outside side
view mirrors
²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors.
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable).
Certain functions of the memory system rely upon
resources shared with other electronic modules in the
vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) J1850 data bus network. The PCI
data bus network allows the sharing of sensor infor-
mation. This helps to reduce wire harness complexity,
internal controller hardware, and component sensor
current loads. At the same time, this system provides
increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics, and
allows the addition of many new feature capabilities.
Initial diagnosis of these electronic modules or the
PCI data bus network requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures man-
ual. If this method does not prove conclusive, the use
of a automotive meter such as the Fluket, the proper
wiring schematics and the service manual diagnostic
routines are required.
The other electronic modules that may affect mem-
ory system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- Refer toBody
Control Modulein Electronic Control Modules for
more information.
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)- Refer to
Powertrain Control Modulein Electronic Control
Modules for more information.
²Transmission Control Module (TCM)- Refer

Refer toWiring Diagramsfor complete circuit
diagrams. Following are descriptions, theory of oper-
ation, diagnosis/testing procedures and removal/in-
stallation procedures of the major components in the
memory and power seat systems.
OPERATION
OPERATION - POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system receives battery current
through fuse #22 in the Intelligent Power Module
and a circuit breaker under the front seats, regard-
less of the ignition switch position.
When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the appropri-
ate power seat track adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track
through its drive unit in the selected direction until
the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the
seat track is reached. When the switch is moved in
the opposite direction, the battery feed and ground
path to the motor are reversed through the switch
contacts. This causes the adjuster motor to run in the
opposite direction.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat track each contain a self-reset-
ting circuit breaker to protect them from overload.
However, consecutive or frequent resetting of the cir-
cuit breaker must not be allowed to continue, or the
motor may be damaged. Refer to the owner's manual
in the vehicle glove box for more information on the
features, use and operation of the power seat system.
OPERATION - MEMORY SYSTEM
The Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
battery current through fuse #22 in the Intelligent
Power Module and the power seat system circuit
breaker, located under the driver side front seat near
the rear edge of the seat cushion pan. The memory
system does not operate with the Ignition-Off Draw
(IOD) fuse removed. The MSMM will drive a maxi-
mum of 2 motors at a time in a given direction. If
conflicting directions are requested, the priority for
response will be approximately as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward or Forward
²Seat Front Down or Up
²Seat Rear Down or Up
²Recliner Rearward or ForwardThe inputs from these switches to the MSMM is a
current limited battery source fed by the MSMM.
This protects the MSMM printed circuit board traces
from acting as fuses. All of these switch contact
inputs to the MSMM are normally closed to ground,
except when actuated.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the memory system. For diagnosis of the MSMM,
the PCI data bus, or the other electronic modules on
the PCI data bus that provide inputs and outputs for
the memory system, the use of a DRBIIItscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual are
recommended.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
serves as the user interface for the memory system.
It displays memory system status messages and pro-
vides the user with the means for enabling and dis-
abling the many customer programmable features
available on the vehicle, including those for the mem-
ory system.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the EVIC. Refer toElectronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Centerin Overhead Console Systems for more
information on the EVIC.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SEAT
SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power seat
system. However, if the vehicle is also equipped with
the optional memory system, these tests may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the driver side
power seat. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the driver side power seat with the memory system
option, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the memory system components must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the driver side power seat with the memory
system option requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual. The
DRBIIItscan tool can provide confirmation that the
PCI data bus is functional, that all of the electronic
modules are sending and receiving the proper mes-
sages on the PCI data bus, and that the memory sys-
tem is receiving the proper hard wired inputs and
relaying the proper hard wired outputs to perform its
driver side power seat functions.
