2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Ignition control

OPERATION
The starting system components form two separate
circuits. A high-amperage feed circuit that feeds the
starter motor between 150 and 350 amperes, and a
low-amperage control circuit that operates on less
than 20 amperes. The high-amperage feed circuit
components include the battery, the battery cables,
the contact disc portion of the starter solenoid, and
the starter motor. The low-amperage control circuit
components include the ignition switch, the park/
neutral position switch, the starter relay, the electro-
magnetic windings of the starter solenoid, and the
connecting wire harness components.
Battery voltage is supplied through the low-amper-
age control circuit to the coil battery terminal of the
starter relay when the ignition switch is turned to
the momentary Start position. The park/neutral posi-
tion switch is installed in series between the starter
relay coil ground terminal and ground. This normally
open switch prevents the starter relay from being
energized and the starter motor from operating
unless the automatic transmission gear selector is in
the Neutral or Park positions.
When the starter relay coil is energized, the nor-
mally open relay contacts close. The relay contacts
connect the relay common feed terminal to the relay
normally open terminal. The closed relay contacts
energize the starter solenoid coil windings.
The energized solenoid pull-in coil pulls in the sole-
noid plunger. The solenoid plunger pulls the shift
lever in the starter motor. This engages the starter
overrunning clutch and pinion gear with the starter
ring gear on the automatic transmission torque con-
verter drive plate.
As the solenoid plunger reaches the end of its
travel, the solenoid contact disc completes the high-
amperage starter feed circuit and energizes the sole-
noid plunger hold-in coil. Current now flows between
the solenoid battery terminal and the starter motor,
energizing the starter.Once the engine starts, the overrunning clutch pro-
tects the starter motor from damage by allowing the
starter pinion gear to spin faster than the pinion
shaft. When the driver releases the ignition switch to
the On position, the starter relay coil is de-energized.
This causes the relay contacts to open. When the
relay contacts open, the starter solenoid plunger
hold-in coil is de-energized.
When the solenoid plunger hold-in coil is de-ener-
gized, the solenoid plunger return spring returns the
plunger to its relaxed position. This causes the con-
tact disc to open the starter feed circuit, and the shift
lever to disengage the overrunning clutch and pinion
gear from the starter ring gear.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - STARTING
SYSTEM
The battery, starting, and charging systems oper-
ate with one another, and must be tested as a com-
plete system. In order for the vehicle to start and
charge properly, all of the components involved in
these systems must perform within specifications.
Group 8A covers the Battery, Group 8B covers the
Starting Systems, and Group 8C covers the Charging
System. We have separated these systems to make it
easier to locate the information you are seeking
within this Service Manual. However, when attempt-
ing to diagnose any of these systems, it is important
that you keep their interdependency in mind.
The diagnostic procedures used in these groups
include the most basic conventional diagnostic meth-
ods, to the more sophisticated On-Board Diagnostics
(OBD) built into the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM). Use of an induction-type milliampere amme-
ter, volt/ohmmeter, battery charger, carbon pile rheo-
stat (load tester), and 12-volt test lamp may be
required.
All OBD-sensed systems are monitored by the
PCM. Each monitored circuit is assigned a Diagnos-
tic Trouble Code (DTC). The PCM will store a DTC in
electronic memory for any failure it detects. Refer to
On-Board Diagnostic Test For Charging System
in the Diagnosis and Testing section of Group 8C -
Charging System for more information.

tery voltage reading.
FEED CIRCUIT TEST
The starter feed circuit test (voltage drop method)
will determine if there is excessive resistance in the
high-amperage feed circuit. For complete circuit dia-
grams, refer toStarting Systemin the Contents of
Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams.
When performing these tests, it is important to
remember that the voltage drop is giving an indica-
tion of the resistance between the two points at
which the voltmeter probes are attached.
Example:When testing the resistance of the bat-
tery positive cable, touch the voltmeter leads to the
battery positive cable clamp and the cable connector
at the starter solenoid. If you probe the battery pos-
itive terminal post and the cable connector at the
starter solenoid, you are reading the combined volt-
age drop in the battery positive cable clamp-to-termi-
nal post connection and the battery positive cable.
The following operation will require a voltmeter
accurate to 1/10 (0.10) volt. Before performing the
tests, be certain that the following procedures are
accomplished:
²Battery is fully-charged and load-tested. Refer to
Batteryin the Diagnosis and Testing section of
Group 8A - Battery for the procedures.
²Fully engage the parking brake.
²Place the automatic transmission gearshift selec-
tor lever in the Park position.
²
Verify that all lamps and accessories are turned off.
²To prevent the engine from starting, remove the
Automatic ShutDown (ASD) relay. The ASD relay is
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC), in
the engine compartment. Refer to the fuse and relay
layout label affixed to the underside of the PDC cover
for ASD relay identification and location.
(1) Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to
the battery negative terminal post. Connect the neg-
ative lead of the voltmeter to the battery negative
cable clamp (Fig. 2). Rotate and hold the ignition
switch in the Start position. Observe the voltmeter. If
voltage is detected, correct the poor contact between
the cable clamp and the terminal post.(2) Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to
the battery positive terminal post. Connect the nega-
tive lead of the voltmeter to the battery positive cable
clamp (Fig. 3). Rotate and hold the ignition switch in
the Start position. Observe the voltmeter. If voltage
is detected, correct the poor contact between the
cable clamp and the terminal post.
(3) Connect the voltmeter to measure between the
battery positive terminal post and the starter sole-
noid battery terminal stud (Fig. 4). Rotate and hold
the ignition switch in the Start position. Observe the
voltmeter. If the reading is above 0.2 volt, clean and
tighten the battery cable connection at the solenoid.

DESCRIPTION - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
An electrically heated rear window defogger is
standard factory-installed equipment on this model.
Electrically heated outside rear view mirrors are
available factory-installed optional equipment. When
the rear window defogger system is turned on, elec-
tric heater grids on the liftgate flip-up 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 the outside rear
view mirrors of ice, snow, or fog. The rear window
defogger system control circuit uses ignition switched
battery current, so the system will only operate when
the ignition switch is in the On position.
This group covers the following components of the
rear window defogger system:
²Rear glass heating grid
²Rear window defogger relay²Rear window defogger switch.
Certain functions and features of the rear window
defogger system rely upon resources shared with
other electronic modules in the vehicle over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
network. The PCI data bus network allows the shar-
ing of sensor information. 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 fea-
ture capabilities. For diagnosis of these electronic
modules or of the PCI data bus network, use a
DRBIIItscan tool and (Refer to Appropriate Diagnos-
tic Information).
The other electronic modules that may affect
proper system operation are:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- Refer to Elec-
tronic Control Modules for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)- Refer to Elec-
tronic Control Modules for more information.
WJHEATED SYSTEMS 8G - 1

²Passenger Door Module (PDM)- Refer to
Electronic Control Modules for more information.
OPERATION - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
The rear window defogger system is controlled by a
momentary switch that is integral to the a/c heater
control located in the center stack area of the instru-
ment panel. A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the
switch button will light to indicate when the rear
window defogger system is turned on. The BCM,
which contains the rear window defogger system
timer and control logic, monitors the status of the
defogger switch through a hard-wired input. The
BCM then sends control outputs through a hard
wired circuit to energize or de-energize the defogger
relay.
The electrically heated outside rear view mirror
heating grids are also controlled by the rear window
defogger switch. When the BCM receives an input
from the switch, it sends a defogger switch status
message to the DDM and the PDM over the PCI data
bus. The DDM and PDM respond to the defogger
switch status messages by energizing or de-energiz-
ing the battery current feed to their respective out-
side rear view mirror heating grids.
The rear window defogger system will be automat-
ically turned off after a programmed time interval of
about ten minutes. After the initial time interval has
expired, if the defogger switch is turned on again
during the same ignition cycle, the defogger system
will automatically turn off after about five minutes.
The defogger system will automatically shut off if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, or it can
be turned off manually by depressing the rear win-
dow defogger switch again.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the rear window defogger system.

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 AN ACCIDENTAL
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.For complete circuit diagrams, (Refer to Appropri-
ate Wiring Information). The operation of the electri-
cally heated rear window defogger system can be
confirmed in one of the following manners:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
While monitoring the instrument panel voltmeter,
depress the rear window defogger switch to the On
position. When the rear window defogger switch is
turned On, a distinct voltmeter needle deflection
should be noted.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Depress the rear window defogger switch to the On
position. The rear window defogger operation can be
checked by feeling the rear window or outside rear
view mirror glass. A distinct difference in tempera-
ture between the grid lines and the adjacent clear
glass or the mirror glass can be detected within three
to four minutes of operation.
3. Using a 12-volt DC voltmeter, contact the rear
glass heating grid terminal A (right side) with the
negative lead, and terminal B (left side) with the pos-
itive lead (Fig. 1). The voltmeter should read battery
voltage.
The above checks will confirm rear window defog-
ger system operation. Illumination of the rear win-
dow defogger switch LED indicator means that there
is battery current available at the output of the rear
window defogger relay, but does not confirm that bat-
tery current is reaching the rear glass heating grid
lines.
If the rear window defogger system does not oper-
ate, the problem should be isolated in the following
manner:

(1) Confirm that the ignition switch is in the On
position.
(2) Ensure that the rear glass heating grid feed
and ground terminals are connected to the glass.
Confirm that the ground wire has continuity to
ground.
(3) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC). The fuse must be tight in its
receptacles and all electrical connections must be
secure.
When the above steps have been completed and the
rear glass heating grid is still inoperative, one or
more of the following is faulty:
²Rear window defogger switch
²Rear window defogger relay
²Body Control Module (BCM)
²Rear window grid lines (all grid lines would
have to be broken or one of the feed wires discon-
nected for the entire system to be inoperative).
When the above steps have been completed and the
heated mirror glass heating grid is still inoperative,
one or more of the following is faulty:
²Body Control Module (BCM)
²Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus
²Driver Door Module (DDM) or Passenger Door
Module (PDM)
²Outside rear view mirror heating grids.
If turning the rear window defogger system on pro-
duces a severe voltmeter deflection, check for a short
circuit between the rear window defogger relay out-
put and the rear glass heating grid.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
GRID
DESCRIPTION
The electrically heated rear window glass is stan-
dard equipment on this model. The liftgate flip-up
glass has two electrically conductive vertical bus bars
and a series of horizontal grid lines made of a silver-
ceramic material, which is baked on and bonded to
the inside surface of the glass. These grid lines and
the bus bars comprise a parallel electrical circuit. A
spade type terminal near the top of each bus bar
accept the connectors from the two coiled liftgate
wire harness take outs.
The grid lines and bus bars are highly resistant to
abrasion. However, it is possible for an open circuit
to occur in an individual grid line, resulting in no
current flow through the line. The grid lines can be
damaged or scraped off with sharp instruments. Care
should be taken when cleaning the glass or removing
foreign materials, decals, or stickers from the glass.Normal glass cleaning solvents or hot water used
with rags or toweling is recommended.
A repair kit is available to repair the grid lines and
bus bars, or to reinstall the heated glass terminals.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED GLASS/REAR
WINDOW DEFOGGER GRID - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE)
OPERATION
The rear glass heating grid is energized and de-en-
ergized by the rear window defogger relay. The Body
Control Module (BCM) monitors the rear window
defogger switch. When the BCM receives an input
from the switch, it energizes or de-energizes the rear
window defogger relay through a hard wired control
output. The rear defogger relay switches fused bat-
tery current to the rear window grid lines through
the bus bars. The grid lines heat the rear window
glass to clear the surface of ice, snow or fog. Protec-
tion for the rear glass heating grid circuit is provided
by a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WINDOW
DEFOGGER GRID
For complete circuit diagrams, (Refer to Appropri-
ate Wiring Information). To detect breaks in the rear
glass heating grid lines, the following procedure is
required:
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Turn the rear window defogger system on. The rear
window defogger switch LED indicator should light.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/HEATED GLASS/REAR WINDOW DEFOG-
GER RELAY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
(2) Using a 12-volt DC voltmeter, contact the rear
glass heating grid vertical bus bar on the right side
of the vehicle with the negative lead. With the posi-
tive lead, contact the rear glass heating grid vertical
bus bar on the left side of the vehicle. The voltmeter
should read battery voltage. If OK, go to Step 3. If
not OK, repair the open rear window defogger relay
output circuit to the rear window defogger relay as
required.
(3) With the positive voltmeter lead still contacting
the rear glass heating grid vertical bus bar on the
left side of the vehicle, move the negative lead of the
voltmeter to a good body ground point. The voltage
reading should not change. If OK, go to Step 4. If not
OK, repair the ground circuit to ground as required.
(4) Connect the negative lead of the voltmeter to
the right side bus bar and touch each grid line at
midpoint C with the positive lead (Fig. 2). A reading
of approximately six volts indicates a line is good. A
reading of zero volts indicates a break in the grid
line between midpoint C and the left side rear glass
heating grid bus bar. A reading of ten to fourteen

HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Individually controlled driver and passenger side
electrically heated front seats are available factory-
installed optional equipment on this model, when it
is also equipped with the power seat option. The
heated seat system allows both the driver and the
front seat passenger the option to select one of two
seat heating ranges, Low or High, or to turn the indi-
vidual seat heaters Off using the heated seat
switches located in the center lower bezel near the
bottom of the instrument panel center stack (Fig. 1).
The heated seat switch circuit operates on ignition
switched battery current supplied through a fuse in
the junction block, only when the ignition switch is
in the On position.
The heated seat system consists of the following
components :
²Heated seat elements
²Heated seat sensors
²Heated seat module (or memory heated seat
module)
²Heated seat switches.
The heated seat system also relies upon resources
shared with other electronic modules in the vehicle
over the Programmable Communications Interface
