(run-acc) circuit between the right multi-function
switch and the JB as required.
(7) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Test the right multi-function switch. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS/RIGHT
MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING). If the right multi-function switch tests
OK, reconnect the instrument panel wire harness
connector for the right multi-function switch to the
switch connector receptacle and go to Step 8. If the
right multi-function switch does not test OK, replace
the faulty switch.
(8) Remove the liftgate inner trim panel. Discon-
nect the liftgate wire harness connector for the rear
wiper module from the module connector receptacle.
Check for continuity between the ground circuit cav-
ity of the liftgate wire harness connector for the rear
wiper module and a good ground. There should be
continuity. If OK, go to Step 9. If not OK, repair the
open ground circuit to ground (G301) as required.
(9) Check for continuity between the liftgate
flip-up glass ajar switch sense circuit cavity of the
liftgate wire harness connector for the rear wiper
module and a good ground. There should be continu-
ity with the liftgate flip-up glass open, and no conti-
nuity with the liftgate flip-up glass closed. If OK, go
to Step 10. If not OK, repair the liftgate flip-up glass
ajar circuit as required.
(10) Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check
for battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of
the liftgate wire harness connector for the rear wiper
module. If OK, go to Step 11. If not OK, repair the
open fused B(+) circuit between the rear wiper mod-
ule and the JB as required.
(11) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Turn the right multi-function switch control sleeve to
the Delay position. Check for battery voltage at the
rear washer switch output circuit cavity of the lift-
gate wire harness connector for the rear wiper mod-
ule. If OK, go to Step 12. If not OK, repair the open
rear washer switch output circuit between the rear
wiper module and the right multi-function switch as
required.(12) Turn the right multi-function switch control
sleeve to the On position. Check for battery voltage
at the rear wiper motor control circuit cavity of the
liftgate wire harness connector for the rear wiper
module. If OK, replace the faulty rear wiper module.
If not OK, repair the open rear wiper motor control
circuit between the rear wiper module and the right
multi-function switch as required.
WASHER SYSTEM
The diagnosis found here addresses an electrically
inoperative rear washer system. If the rear washer
pump/motor operates, but no washer fluid is emitted
from the rear washer nozzle, be certain to check the
fluid level in the reservoir. Also inspect the washer
system components as required. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/REAR WIPERS/WASHERS - INSPECTION).
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire
harness routing and retention, connector pin-out
information and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Turn the right multi-function switch control sleeve to
the On position. Check whether the rear wiper sys-
tem is operating. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, test
and repair the rear wiper system before continuing
with these tests. Refer to WIPER SYSTEM .

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).

DESCRIPTION - CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric
code to identify the wire and it's function. To identify
which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the
Circuit Identification Code Chart. This chart shows
the main circuits only and does not show the second-
ary codes that may apply to some models.

DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND
INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual
sections. If a component is most likely found in a par-
ticular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,
connectors, and pins) within that group. For exam-
ple, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Group 30, so it is shown there complete. It
can, however, be shown partially in another group if
it contains some associated wiring.
Splice diagrams in Section 8W-70 show the entire
splice and provide references to other sections the
splices serves. Section 8W-70 only contains splice dia-
grams that are not shown in their entirety some-
where else in the wiring diagrams.
Section 8W-80 shows each connector and the cir-
cuits involved with that connector. The connectors
are identified using the name/number on the dia-
gram pages.
