AUDIO
DESCRIPTION
An audio system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The standard equipment
audio system includes an AM/FM/cassette (RBB sales
code) radio receiver, and speakers in six locations.
Several combinations of radio receivers and speaker
systems are offered as optional equipment on this
model. The audio system uses an ignition switched
control of battery current so that the system will only
operate when the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessory positions.
A Compact Disc (CD) changer with a ten disc mag-
azine, remote radio switches with six functions
mounted to the backs of the steering wheel spokes,
and a memory system that automatically stores and
recalls up to twenty radio station presets (ten AM
and ten FM) and the last station listened to for two
drivers are optional factory-installed equipment on
this model. Refer to Electrical, Power Seats for more
information on the memory system.
The audio system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Antenna
²Compact disc changer (available with RBP sales
code radio receivers only)
²Power amplifier (with premium speaker system
only)
²Radio noise suppression components
²Radio receiver
²Remote radio switches
²Speakers
Certain functions and features of the audio system
rely upon resources shared with other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sensor
information. This helps to reduce wire harness com-
plexity, 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 capabil-
ities. For diagnosis of these electronic modules or of
the PCI data bus network, the use of a DRB scan
tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual
are recommended.
The other electronic modules that may affect audio
system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL
- DESCRIPTION) for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
The audio system includes the following major
components, which are described in further detail
elsewhere in this service information:
²Amplifier- On models equipped with the
optional premium speaker system, an audio power
amplifier is located on the rear floor panel under-
neath the right end of the rear seat cushion in the
passenger compartment.
²Antenna Body and Cable- The most visible
component of the antenna body and cable are the
antenna adapter and the antenna cap nut, which are
located on the top of the right front fender panel of
the vehicle, near the right end of the cowl plenum.
²Antenna Mast- The antenna mast is a metal
rod that extends upward from the antenna body and
cable on the top of the right front fender panel of the
vehicle, near the right end of the cowl plenum.
²Radio- The radio for this model is located in
the instrument panel center stack area, inboard of
the instrument cluster and above the heater and air
conditioner controls.
²Radio Noise Suppression Ground Strap-A
radio noise suppression ground strap is installed
between the rear of the engine cylinder head(s) and
the dash panel sheet metal in the engine compart-
ment.
²Speaker- The standard speaker system
includes six speakers in six locations, while the pre-
mium speaker system includes an amplifier for the
six speakers in six locations.
Hard wired circuitry connects the audio system
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
audio system components through the use of a com-
bination of soldered splices, splice block connectors
and many different types of wire harness terminal
connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information in this service manual for com-
plete standard and premium audio system circuit
diagrams. The wiring information includes 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 har-
ness connectors, splices, and grounds.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - PCM/SKIM
PROGRAMMING
NOTE: Before replacing the PCM, be sure to check
the related component/circuit integrity for failures
not detected due to a double fault in the circuit.
Most PCM failures are caused by internal compo-
nent failures (i.e. relays and solenoids) and shorted
circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers, and switched cir-
cuits). These failures are difficult to detect when a
double fault has occurred and only one DTC has
been set.When a PCM (JTEC) and the SKIM are replaced
at the same time, perform the following steps in
order:
(1) Program the new PCM (JTEC).
(2) Program the new SKIM.
(3) Replace all ignition keys and program them to
the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING THE PCM (JTEC)
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique
to each SKIM. This code is programmed and stored
in the SKIM, the PCM, and the ignition key tran-
sponder chip(s). When replacing the PCM, it is nec-
essary to program the secret key into the new PCM
using the DRBIIItscan tool. Perform the following
steps to program the secret key into the PCM.

messages. The EVIC module uses its internal pro-
gramming and all of its data inputs to calculate and
display the requested data. If the data displayed is
incorrect, perform the self-diagnostic tests as
described in this group. If these tests prove inconclu-
sive, the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures manual are recommended for
further testing of the EVIC module and the PCI data
bus.
The EVIC module cannot be repaired, and is avail-
able for service only as a unit. This unit includes the
push button switches and the plastic housed module.
If any of these components are faulty or damaged,
the complete EVIC module must be replaced. The
incandescent bulbs used for EVIC push button back-
lighting and the display lens are available for service
replacement.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
CHIME
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
uses the chime warning system for two different
kinds of support. In addition to requesting chime
tones from the Body Control Module (BCM) as tactile
beep support, the EVIC is programmed to send chime
request messages over the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus when it detects the
following conditions:
²Door Open Warning- A door is open above a
critical speed [about 16 kilometers-per-hour (10
miles-per-hour) for the driver side front door, or
about 5 kilometers-per-hour (3 miles-per-hour) for
any other door].
²Liftgate Open Warning- The liftgate is open
above a critical speed [about 5 kilometers-per-hour (3
miles-per-hour)].
²Liftglass Open Warning- The liftgate flip-up
glass is open above a critical speed [about 5 kilome-
ters-per-hour (3 miles-per-hour)].
²Low Coolant Level Warning- The coolant
level in the engine coolant reservoir is low.
²Perform Service Alert- An audible alert that
a ªPerform Serviceº reminder message is being dis-
played by the EVIC.
²Turn Signal On Warning- A turn signal
remains on for about 1.6 kilometers (one mile).
²Washer Fluid Low Warning- The fluid level
in the washer reservoir is low.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the EVIC. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER
- DESCRIPTION) for more information on the EVIC.
COMPASS
While in the compass/temperature mode, the com-
pass will display the direction in which the vehicle is
pointed using the eight major compass headings
(Examples: north is N, northeast is NE). The self-cal-
ibrating compass unit requires no adjusting in nor-
mal use. The only calibration that may prove
necessary is to drive the vehicle in one circle at 5 to
8 kilometers-per-hour (3 to 5 miles-per-hour), on level
ground, in not less than 20 seconds. This will reori-
ent the compass unit to its vehicle.
The compass unit also will compensate for magne-
tism the body of the vehicle may acquire during nor-
mal use. However, avoid placing anything magnetic
directly on the roof of the vehicle. Magnetic mounts
for an antenna, a repair order hat, or a funeral pro-
cession flag can exceed the compensating ability of
the compass unit if placed on the roof panel. Mag-
netic bit drivers used on the fasteners that hold the
overhead console assembly to the roof header can
also affect compass operation. If the vehicle roof
should become magnetized, the demagnetizing and
calibration procedures found in this group may be
required to restore proper compass operation.
TEMPERATURE
The outside ambient temperature is displayed in
whole degrees. The temperature display can be tog-
gled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by selecting the
desired U.S./Metric option from the customer pro-
grammable features as described inELECTRONIC
VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER PROGRAM-
MINGin the Standard Procedures section of this
group. The displayed temperature is not an instant
reading of conditions, but an average temperature. It
may take the temperature display several minutes to
respond to a major temperature change, such as driv-
ing out of a heated garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion, the last displayed temperature reading stays in
the Body Control Module (BCM) unit memory. When
the ignition switch is turned to the On position
again, the EVIC will display the memory tempera-
ture for one minute; then update the display to the
current average temperature reading within five
minutes.
The temperature function is supported by an ambi-
ent temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted out-
side the passenger compartment near the front and
center of the vehicle, and is hard wired to the Body
Control Module (BCM). The BCM sends temperature
status messages to the EVIC module over the PCI
data bus network. The ambient temperature sensor
is available as a separate service item.

ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER (Continued)

This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION). Customer programmable feature
options affecting the power door lock system include:
²Auto Door Locks- Automatically locks all of
the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the vehicle
reaches a speed of about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15
miles-per-hour) with 10% throttle tip-in.
²Auto Unlock on Exit- Automatically unlocks
all of the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the
driver side front door is opened, if the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission gear selector is in the
Park or Neutral positions. This feature is linked to
the Auto Door Locks feature, and will only occur one
time following each Auto Door Lock event.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the standard equipment
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system radio frequency
transmitters. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS - DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY SYSTEM).
The components of the power lock system include:
²Driver Door Module (DDM)
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)
²PCI Bus Messages
²Power Lock Motors
Certain functions and features of the power lock
system rely upon resources shared with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sen-
sor information. This helps to reduce wire harness
complexity, internal controller hardware, and compo-
nent sensor current loads. At the same time, this sys-
tem provides increased reliability, enhanced
diagnostics, and allows the addition of many new fea-

DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The RKE system allows
the use of a remote battery-powered radio transmit-
ter to control the power lock system. The RKE
receiver operates on non-switched battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC), so that the system remains operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
In addition to Lock and Unlock buttons, the RKE
transmitters are also equipped with a Panic button.
If the Panic button on the RKE transmitter is
depressed, the horn will sound and the exterior lights
will flash on the vehicle for about three minutes, or
until the Panic button is depressed a second time, if
ignition is in the Off position. A vehicle speed of
about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will
also cancel the panic event.
The RKE system can also perform other functions
on this vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS), the
RKE transmitter will arm the VTSS when the Lock
button is depressed, and disarm the VTSS when the
Unlock button is depressed. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY - DESCRIPTION
- VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If the
vehicle is equipped with the optional Memory Sys-
tem, each of the two numbered and color-coded RKE
transmitters can be used to recall the stored driver
side front seat position, both outside power rear view
mirror positions, and the radio station presets for the
two assigned drivers. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYS-
TEM).

POWER MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
Driver and passenger side power operated outside
rear view mirrors are standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The power mirror system
allows the driver to adjust both outside mirrors elec-
trically from the driver seat position by operating a
switch on the driver side front door trim panel. The
power mirror system receives non-switched battery
current through a fuse in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) so that the power mirrors remain oper-
ational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The standard equipment power operated outside
rear view mirrors are also equipped with the heated
mirror system, which will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On position and the rear
window defogger switch is turned on. When the rear
window defogger switch is in the On position, electric
heater grids on the rear window glass and behind
both outside rear view mirror glasses are energized.
These electric heater grids produce heat to help clear
the rear window glass and outside rear view mirrors
of ice, snow, or fog. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED MIRRORS - DESCRIPTION) for more
information on this feature.
A driver side automatic dimming outside mirror
that dims the mirror to reduce the glare of bright
lights approaching the vehicle from behind, and a
memory system that automatically positions the
power mirrors for two different drivers are optionalfactory-installed equipment on this model. (Refer to 8

DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYSTEM
An electronic memory system is standard equip-
ment on the Limited model. The memory system is
able to store and recall the driver side power seat
positions (including the power recliner position), and
both outside power mirror positions for two drivers.
For vehicles with a radio connected to the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus net-
work, the memory system is also able to store and
recall up to twenty - ten AM and ten FM - radio sta-
tion presets for two 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 twenty preset
stations.
The memory system will automatically return to
all of these settings when the corresponding num-
bered and color-coded button (Driver 1 - Black, or
Driver 2 - Gray) of the memory switch on the driver
side front door trim panel is depressed, or when the
doors are unlocked using the corresponding num-
bered and color-coded (Driver 1 - Black, or Driver 2 -
Gray) Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A
customer programmable feature of the memory sys-
tem allows the RKE recall of memory features to be
disabled in cases where there are more than two
drivers of the vehicle.
The memory system also has a customer program-
mable easy exit feature that will move the driver
seat rearward 55 millimeters (two inches) or to the
end of its travel, whichever occurs first, when the key
is removed from the ignition switch lock cylinder.A Memory Seat Module (MSM) or Memory Heated
Seat Module (MHSM) are used on this model to con-
trol and integrate the many electronic functions and
features included in the memory system. On vehicles
equipped with the heated seat system option, the
MHSM also controls the functions and features of
that system.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory seat module (or memory heated seat
module)
²Memory switch
²Position potentiometers on both outside power
mirrors
²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors.
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable).

POWER SEAT SYSTEM (Continued)

OPERATION
The power lumbar adjuster mechanism includes a
reversible electric motor that is secured to the
inboard side of the seat back panel and is connected
to a worm-drive gearbox. The motor and gearbox
operate the lumbar adjuster mechanism in the center
of the seat back by extending and retracting a cable
that actuates a lever. The action of this lever com-
presses or relaxes a grid of flexible slats. The more
this grid is compressed, the more the slats bow out-
ward against the center of the seat back padding,
providing additional lumbar support.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LUMBAR
ADJUSTER
Actuate the power lumbar switch to move the
power lumbar adjuster in each direction. The power
lumbar adjuster should move in both directions. It
should be noted that the power lumber adjuster nor-
mally operates very quietly and exhibits little visible
movement. If the power lumbar adjuster fails to oper-
ate in only one direction, move the adjuster a short
distance in the opposite direction and test again to be
certain that the adjuster is not at its travel limit. If
the power lumbar adjuster still fails to operate in
only one direction, refer toDiagnosis and Testing
Power Lumbar Switchin this group. If the power
lumbar adjuster fails to operate in either direction,
perform the following tests. For complete circuit dia-
grams, refer toWiring Diagrams.
(1) Check the power seat circuit breaker in the
junction block. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace
the faulty power seat circuit breaker.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the power seat cir-
cuit breaker in the junction block. If OK, go to Step
3. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the
fuse in the Power Distribution Center as required.
(3) Remove the outboard seat cushion side shield
from the seat. Disconnect the seat wire harness con-
nector from the power lumbar switch connector
receptacle. Check for battery voltage at the fused
B(+) circuit cavity of the power seat wire harness
connector for the power lumbar switch. If OK, go to
Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit
to the power seat circuit breaker in the junction
block as required.
(4) Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the power seat wire harness connector
for the power lumbar switch and a good ground.
There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not
OK, repair the open ground circuit to ground as
required.
(5) Test the power lumbar switch. Refer toDiag-
nosis and Testing Power Lumbar Switchin this
group. If the switch tests OK, test the circuits of the
power seat wire harness between the power lumbaradjuster motor and the power lumbar switch for
shorts or opens. If the circuits check OK, replace the
faulty seat back frame assembly. If the circuits are
not OK, repair the power seat wire harness as
required.
MEMORY SET SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory system have a
memory switch mounted to the driver side front door
trim panel (Fig. 12). This switch is used to set and
recall all of the memory system settings for up to two
drivers. The memory switch is a resistor multiplexed
unit that is hard wired to the Driver Door Module
(DDM), which is also located on the driver side front
door trim panel. The DDM sends out the memory
system set and recall requests to the other electronic
modules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus.
The memory switch cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring Diagrams
.
OPERATION
The memory switch has three momentary switch
buttons labeled Set, 1 and 2. The Driver 1 and Driver
2 buttons are back-lit with Light-Emitting Diodes

factory. The Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
can be programmed to recognize up to a total of eight
Sentry Keys. When programming a blank Sentry Key
transponder, the key must first be cut to match the
ignition switch lock cylinde for which it will be used.
Once the additional key has been cut, the SKIM
must be programmed to recognize it as a valid key.
There are two possible methods to program the
SKIM to recognize a new or additional valid key, the
Secured Access Method and the Customer Learn
Method. Following are the details of these two pro-
gramming methods.
SECURED ACCESS METHOD
The Secured Access method applies to all vehicles.
This method requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool.
This method will also require that you have access to
the unique four-digit PIN code that was assigned to
the original SKIM. The PIN codemustbe used to
enter the Secured Access Mode in the SKIM. This
PIN number may be obtained from the vehicle owner,
from the original vehicle invoice, or from the
DaimlerChrysler Customer Center. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information for the proper
Secured Access method programming procedures.
CUSTOMER LEARN METHOD
The Customer Learn feature is only available on
domestic vehicles, or those vehicles which have a
U.S. country code designator. This programming
method also requires access to at least two valid Sen-
try Keys. If two valid Sentry Keys are not available,
or if the vehicle does not have a U.S. country code
designator, the Secured Access Methodmustbe used
to program new or additional valid keys to the SKIM.
The Customer Learn programming method proce-
dures are as follows:
(1) Obtain the blank Sentry Key(s) that are to be
programmed as valid keys for the vehicle. Cut the
blank key(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylin-
der mechanical key codes.
(2) Insert one of the two valid Sentry Keys into the
ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the
On position.
(3) After the ignition switch has been in the On
position for longer than three seconds, but no more
than fifteen seconds, cycle the ignition switch back to
the Off position. Replace the first valid Sentry Key in
the ignition switch lock cylinder with the second
valid Sentry Key and turn the ignition switch back to
the On position. The second valid Sentry Key must
be inserted in the lock cylinder within fifteen seconds
of removing the first valid key.
(4) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
3, the SKIS indicator in the instrument cluster will
start to flash and a single audible chime tone willsound to indicate that the system has entered the
Customer Learn programming mode.
(5) Within sixty seconds of entering the Customer
Learn programming mode, turn the ignition switch to
the Off position, replace the valid Sentry Key with a
blank Sentry Key transponder, and turn the ignition
switch back to the On position.
(6) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
5, a single audible chime tone will sound and the
SKIS indicator will stop flashing, stay on solid for
three seconds, then turn off to indicate that the
blank Sentry Key has been successfully programmed.
The SKIS will immediately exit the Customer Learn
programming mode and the vehicle may now be
started using the newly programmed valid Sentry
Key.
Each of these steps must be repeated and com-
pleted in their entirety for each additional Sentry
Key that is to be programmed. If the above steps are
not completed in the given sequence, or within the
allotted time, the SKIS will exit the Customer Learn
programming mode and the programming will be
unsuccessful. The SKIS will also automatically exit
the Customer Learn programming mode if it sees a
non-blank Sentry Key transponder when it should
see a blank, if it has already programmed eight (8)
valid Sentry Keys, or if the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position for more than about fifty seconds.
NOTE: If an attempt is made to start the vehicle
while in the Customer Learn mode (SKIS indicator
flashing), the SKIS will respond as though the vehi-
cle were being started with an invalid key. In other
words, the engine will stall after about two seconds
of operation. No faults will be set.
NOTE: Once a Sentry Key has been programmed as
a valid key to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed
as a valid key for use on any other vehicle.
