2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Left turn signal wire diagram

an input from the auto headlamp light sensor to
determine the ambient light levels. If the BCM
decides that the exterior lighting is turned on in the
daylight, it overrides the selected panel dimmer
switch signal by sending a message over the PCI
data bus to illuminate all vacuum fluorescent dis-
plays at full brightness for improved visibility in day-
time light levels. The automatic parade mode has no
effect on the incandescent bulb illumination intensity.
The hard wired cluster illumination circuits
between the left (lighting) multi-function switch and
the BCM may be diagnosed using conventional diag-
nostic tools and methods. The electro-luminescent
lamp is diagnosed using the EMIC self-diagnostic
actuator test. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRU-
MENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
However, proper testing of the EMIC and the elec-
tronic dimming level messages sent by the BCM over
the PCI data bus requires the use of a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
CHIME SERVICE
The EMIC is programmed to request chime service
from the Body Control Module (BCM) when certain
indicators are illuminated. The EMIC chime request
for illumination of the low fuel indicator is a cus-
tomer programmable feature. When the programmed
conditions are met, the EMIC generates an electronic
chime request message and sends it over the PCI
data bus to the BCM. Upon receiving the proper
chime request, the BCM activates an integral chime
tone generator to provide the audible chime tone to
the vehicle operator. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
CHIME WARNING SYSTEM - OPERATION). Proper
testing of the PCI data bus and the electronic chime
request message outputs from the EMIC requires the
use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER
If all of the instrument cluster gauges and/or indi-
cators are inoperative, refer to PRELIMINARY
DIAGNOSIS . If an individual gauge or Programma-
ble Communications Interface (PCI) data bus mes-
sage-controlled indicator is inoperative, refer to
ACTUATOR TEST . If an individual hard wired indi-
cator is inoperative, refer to the diagnosis and testing
information for that specific indicator. If the base
instrument cluster incandescent illumination lighting
is inoperative, refer to CLUSTER ILLUMINATION
DIAGNOSIS . If the premium instrument cluster
electro-luminescent illumination lighting is inopera-
tive, refer to ACTUATOR TEST . Refer to the appro-
priate wiring information. The wiring information
includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connectorrepair procedures, details of wire harness routing
and retention, connector pin-out information and
location views for the various wire harness connec-
tors, splices and grounds.
NOTE: Occasionally, a condition may be encoun-
tered where the gauge pointer for the speedometer
or the tachometer becomes caught on the wrong
side of the pointer stop. To correct this condition,
the technician should use a DRBIIITscan tool and
the appropriate diagnostic information to perform
the instrument cluster self-diagnostic actuator test
procedure. When performed, the actuator test pro-
cedure will automatically return the pointer to the
correct side of the pointer stop.

switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the transmission over-tem-
perature indicator will be turned on for the duration
of the test to confirm the functionality of the bulb
and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM or TCM continually monitors the trans-
mission temperature sensor to determine the trans-
mission operating condition. The PCM or TCM then
sends the proper trans over-temp indicator lamp-on
or lamp-off messages to the instrument cluster. If the
transmission over-temperature indicator fails to light
during the bulb test, replace the bulb with a known
good unit. If the instrument cluster turns on the
transmission over-temperature indicator due to a
high transmission oil temperature condition, it may
indicate that the transmission or the transmission
cooling system are being overloaded or that they
require service. For further diagnosis of the trans-
mission over-temperature indicator or the instrument
cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING). For proper diagnosis of the
transmission temperature sensor, the PCM, the
TCM, the PCI data bus, or the electronic message
inputs to the instrument cluster that control the
transmission over-temperature indicator, a DRBIIIt
scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diag-
nostic information.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
Two turn signal indicators, one right and one left,
are standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
The turn signal indicators are located near the upper
edge of the instrument cluster, the left one is left of
the tachometer, and the right one is right of the
speedometer. Each turn signal indicator consists of
an International Control and Display Symbol icon for
ªTurn Warningº imprinted on a green lens. Each lens
is located behind a dedicated cutout in the opaque
layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents these icons from
being clearly visible when they are not illuminated.
The icons appear silhouetted against a green field
through the translucent outer layer of the overlay
when the indicator is illuminated from behind by a
replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb holder unit
located on the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The turn signal indicator lenses are serviced
as a unit with the instrument cluster lens, hood and
mask unit.
OPERATION
The turn signal indicators give an indication to the
vehicle operator that the turn signal (left or right
indicator flashing) or hazard warning (both left and
right indicators flashing) have been selected and are
operating. These indicators are controlled by two
individual hard wired inputs from the combination
flasher circuitry to the instrument cluster electronic
circuit board. Each turn signal indicator bulb is
grounded on the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board at all times; therefore, these indicators remain
functional regardless of the ignition switch position.
Each indicator bulb will only illuminate when it is
provided with battery current by the combination
flasher in the Junction Block (JB).
The turn signal indicators are connected in parallel
with the other turn signal circuits. This arrangement
allows the turn signal indicators to remain func-
tional, regardless of the condition of the other cir-
cuits in the turn signal and hazard warning systems.
The combination flasher outputs to the instrument
cluster turn signal indicator inputs can be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and methods. For
more information on the turn signal and hazard
warning system, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - EXTERIOR - OPERATION - TURN
SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN SIGNAL
INDICATOR
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
turn signal indicator condition. If the problem being
diagnosed is related to inoperative turn signal or
hazard warning lamps, be certain to repair the turn
signal and hazard warning system before attempting
to diagnose or repair the turn signal indicators.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING -
EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN
SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM). If no
turn signal and hazard warning system problem is
found, the following procedure will help locate an
open in the turn signal indicator circuit. Refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.

HEADLAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp switch is part of the left multi-func-
tion switch. A knob on the end of the multi-function
switch control stalk controls all of the exterior light-
ing switch functions. The exterior lighting switch is
hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM).
The exterior lighting switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the entire left
multi-function switch unit must be replaced. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERI-
OR/TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD SWITCH - REMOVAL)
for the service procedures. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/BODY
CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL - DESCRIP-
TION) for more information on this component.
OPERATION
The exterior lighting switch uses a hard wired five
volt reference circuit from the BCM, resistor multi-
plexing and a hard wired switch output circuit to
provide the BCM with a zero to five volt signal thatindicates the status of all of the exterior lighting
switch settings. The BCM then uses control outputs
to energize the headlamp and park lamp relays that
activate the exterior lighting circuits.
The BCM monitors the exterior lighting switch sta-
tus, then sends the proper switch status messages to
other modules over the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The exterior
lighting switch status is also used by the BCM as an
input for chime warning system operation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Ð HEADLAMP
SWITCH
Before testing the headlamp switch, turn on the
exterior lighting and open the driver side front door.
If the exterior lamps of the vehicle operate, but there
is no chime warning issued with the driver side front
door open, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - INTERIOR/DOOR AJAR SWITCH -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the exterior lamps
of the vehicle are inoperative, but the chime warning
is issued, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHT-
ING - EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
If the exterior lamps and the chime warning are
both inoperative, test the left multi-function switch.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING -
EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the
multi-function switch tests OK, proceed as follows.
The following tests will help to locate a short or open
in the hard wired circuits between the multi-function
switch and the Body Control Module (BCM). For
complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate
wiring information.

DESCRIPTION - OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
An automatic dimming outside rear view mirror is
an available factory-installed option for the driver
side of the vehicle, if the vehicle is also equipped
with the automatic day/night inside rear view mirror.
The automatic dimming outside mirror is completely
controlled by the circuitry of the automatic day/night
inside rear view mirror. The automatic dimming out-
side mirror will automatically change the reflectance
of the driver side outside rear view mirror to protect
the driver from the unwanted headlight glare of
trailing vehicles while driving at night. The auto-
matic dimming outside mirror will only operate when
the ignition switch is in the On position.
The automatic dimming outside mirror sensitivity
cannot be repaired or adjusted. If any component of
this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire automatic
dimming outside mirror unit must be replaced. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS/SIDEVIEW
MIRROR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). Refer to
the appropriate wiring information. The wiring infor-
mation 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 con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
OPERATION - REAR VIEW MIRROR
The automatic day/night mirror switch allows the
driver a manual control of whether the automatic
dimming feature is operational. This switch is a
momentary rocker-type switch located on the lower
rear-facing surface of the mirror housing. When Auto
is selected, a Light-Emitting Diode (LED) on the mir-
ror housing just to the right of the switch illuminates
to indicate that automatic day/night mirror is turned
on. When Off is selected, the LED is turned off. The
mirror also senses the backup lamp circuit, and will
automatically disable its self-dimming feature when-
ever the transmission gear selector is in the Reverse
position.
A thin layer of electrochromatic material between
two pieces of conductive glass make up the face of
the mirror. Two photocell sensors are used to monitor
light levels and adjust the reflectance of the mirror.
The ambient photocell sensor faces forward, to detect
the outside light levels. The headlamp sensor is
located on the mirror housing just to the left of the
switch and facing rearward, to detect the light level
received at the rear window side of the mirror. When
the difference between the two light levels becomes
too great (the light level received at the rear of themirror is much higher than that at the front of the
mirror), the mirror begins to darken.
On models with an optional driver side automatic
dimming outside mirror, the signal to control the
dimming of that mirror is generated by the auto-
matic day/night inside rear view mirror circuitry.
That signal is then delivered to the driver side out-
side rear view mirror on a hard wired circuit.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the automatic day/night mirror system.
OPERATION - OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The automatic dimming outside mirror is operated
by the same controls and circuitry as the automatic
day/night mirror. When the automatic day/night mir-
ror is turned on or off, the automatic dimming out-
side mirror is likewise turned on or off. Like in the
automatic day/night mirror, a thin layer of electro-
chromatic material between two pieces of conductive
glass make up the face of the automatic dimming
outside mirror. However, the signal to control the
dimming of the outside mirror is generated by the
automatic day/night inside rear view mirror circuitry.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the automatic dimming outside mirror.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AUTOMATIC DAY /
NIGHT MIRROR
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate wiring information. The wiring 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 connec-
tors, splices and grounds.
(1) Check the fused ignition switch output (run/
start) fuse in the junction block. If OK, go to Step 2.
If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as
required and replace the faulty fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run/start) fuse in the junction block. If OK,
go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the open fused ignition
switch output (run/start) circuit to the ignition switch
as required.
(3) Disconnect the overhead wire harness connec-
tor from the automatic day/night mirror connector
receptacle. Check for battery voltage at the fused
ignition switch output (run/start) circuit cavity of the
overhead wire harness connector for the automatic
day/night mirror. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK,
repair the open fused ignition switch output (run/
start) circuit to the fuse in the junction block as
required.

AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT MIRROR (Continued)

²Passenger Airbag- The passenger airbag is
located on the instrument panel, beneath the instru-
ment panel top pad and above the glove box on the
passenger side of the vehicle.
²Passenger Knee Blocker- The passenger knee
blocker is a structural reinforcement that is integral
to and concealed within the glove box door.
²Side Impact Sensor- Two side impact sensors
are used on vehicles with the optional side curtain
airbags, one left side and one right side. One sensor
is located behind the B-pillar trim near the base of
each B-pillar.
²Side Curtain Airbag- In vehicles equipped
with this option, a side curtain airbag is located on
each inside roof side rail above the headliner, and
extends from the A-pillar to just beyond the C-pillar.
The ACM and the EMIC each contain a central
processing unit and programming that allow them to
communicate with each other using the Programma-
ble Communication Interface (PCI) data bus network.
This method of communication is used by the ACM
for control of the airbag indicator on all models
equipped with dual front airbags. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/
COMMUNICATION - DESCRIPTION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the supplemental
restraint system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired
circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system,
and to the supplemental restraint system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
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
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
ACTIVE RESTRAINTS
The primary passenger restraints in this or any
other vehicle are the standard equipment factory-in-
stalled seat belts. Seat belts are referred to as an
active restraint because the vehicle occupants are
required to physically fasten and properly adjust
these restraints in order to benefit from them. See
the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features, use and operation of all
of the factory-installed active restraints.PASSIVE RESTRAINTS
The passive restraints system is referred to as a
supplemental restraint system because they were
designed and are intended to enhance the protection
for the vehicle occupants of the vehicleonlywhen
used in conjunction with the seat belts. They are
referred to as passive systems because the vehicle
occupants are not required to do anything to make
them operate; however, the vehicle occupants must
be wearing their seat belts in order to obtain the
maximum safety benefit from the factory-installed
supplemental restraint systems.
The supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits are continuously monitored and controlled by a
microprocessor and software contained within the
Airbag Control Module (ACM). An airbag indicator in
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
illuminates for about seven seconds as a bulb test
each time the ignition switch is turned to the On or
Start positions. Following the bulb test, the airbag
indicator is turned on or off by the ACM to indicate
the status of the supplemental restraint system. If
the airbag indicator comes on at any time other than
during the bulb test, it indicates that there is a prob-
lem in the supplemental restraint system electrical
circuits. Such a problem may cause airbags not to
deploy when required, or to deploy when not
required.
Deployment of the supplemental restraints
depends upon the angle and severity of an impact.
Deployment is not based upon vehicle speed; rather,
deployment is based upon the rate of deceleration as
measured by the forces of gravity (G force) upon the
impact sensors. When an impact is severe enough,
the microprocessor in the ACM signals the inflator
unit of the airbag module to deploy the airbag. Dur-
ing a frontal vehicle impact, the knee blockers work
in concert with properly fastened and adjusted seat
belts to restrain both the driver and the front seat
passenger in the proper position for an airbag deploy-
ment. The knee blockers also absorb and distribute
the crash energy from the driver and the front seat
passenger to the structure of the instrument panel.
Typically, the vehicle occupants recall more about
the events preceding and following a collision than
they have of an airbag deployment itself. This is
because the airbag deployment and deflation occur so
rapidly. In a typical 48 kilometer-per-hour (30 mile-
per-hour) barrier impact, from the moment of impact
until the airbags are fully inflated takes about 40
milliseconds. Within one to two seconds from the
moment of impact, the airbags are almost entirely
deflated. The times cited for these events are approx-
imations, which apply only to a barrier impact at the
given speed. Actual times will vary somewhat,

²Washer Reservoir- The rear washer system
shares a single reservoir with the front washer sys-
tem, but has its own dedicated washer pump/motor
and plumbing. The washer reservoir is concealed
between the left inner fender shield and the left
outer fender panel, behind the inner fender liner and
ahead of the left front wheel. The washer reservoir
filler neck is the only visible portion of the reservoir,
and it is accessed from the left front corner of the
engine compartment.
Features of the rear wiper and washer system
include the following:
²Continuous Wipe Mode- When the right
multi-function switch control sleeve is moved to the
On position, the rear wiper will be operated at a
fixed speed, continual wipe cycle until the switch
sleeve is moved to the Delay or Off positions, until
the ignition switch is turned to the Off position, or
until the liftgate flip-up glass is ajar.
²Intermittent Wipe Mode- When the right
multi-function switch control sleeve is moved to the
Delay position, the rear wiper will be operated in a
fixed interval, intermittent wipe cycle until the
switch sleeve is moved to the On or Off positions,
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
until the liftgate flip-up glass is ajar, or until the
right multi-function switch control stalk is pushed
forward to activate the rear washer system. The
intermittent wipe mode delay time has a fixed delay
interval of about five to eight seconds between
sweeps.
²Washer Mode- When the right multi-function
switch control stalk is pushed forward to activate the
rear washer system, washer fluid will be dispensed
from the washer reservoir onto the liftgate glass
through the rear washer nozzle and the rear wiper
will operate in a fixed cycle (not intermittent) for as
long as the rear washer pump/motor unit remains
energized. When the control stalk is released from
the momentary Wash position, the wipe-after-wash
feature will continue to operate the rear wiper at a
fixed cycle for about three additional wiper sweeps
before returning to the previously selected mode.
Hard wired circuitry connects the rear wiper and
washer system components to the electrical system of
the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to
several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout
the vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the rear wiper and
washer 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. The wiring information includes
wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repairprocedures, further details on wire harness routing
and retention, as well as pin-out and location views
for the various wire harness connectors, splices and
grounds.
OPERATION
The rear wiper and washer system is intended to
provide the vehicle operator with a convenient, safe,
and reliable means of maintaining visibility through
the liftgate glass. The various components of this sys-
tem are designed to convert electrical energy pro-
duced by the vehicle electrical system into the
mechanical action of the wiper blade to wipe the out-
side surface of the glass, as well as into the hydraulic
action of the washer system to apply washer fluid
stored in an on-board reservoir to the area of the
glass to be wiped. When combined, these components
provide the means to effectively maintain clear visi-
bility for the vehicle operator by removing excess
accumulations of rain, snow, bugs, mud, or other
minor debris from the outside liftgate glass surface
that might be encountered while driving the vehicle
under numerous types of inclement operating condi-
tions. The vehicle operator initiates all rear wiper
and washer system functions with the right multi-
function switch located on the right side of the steer-
ing column, just below the steering wheel. Moving
the switch control sleeve to a detent position selects
the rear wiper system operating mode. Moving the
switch control stalk forward to a momentary position
activates the rear washer pump/motor, which dis-
penses washer fluid onto the liftgate glass through
the rear washer nozzle and operates the rear wiper
system in the fixed cycle mode for as long as the
washer switch is closed plus about three wiper
sweeps.
When the ignition switch is in the Accessory or On
positions, battery current from a fuse in the Junction
Block (JB) is provided to the right multi-function
switch through a fused ignition switch output (run-
acc) circuit. A separate fuse in the JB provides bat-
tery current to the electronic control circuitry of the
rear wiper module through a fused B(+) circuit.
When the right multi-function switch control sleeve
On position is selected, the On position circuitry
within the switch directs a battery current rear
wiper motor control signal input to the rear wiper
module electronic circuitry, which causes the rear
wiper motor to run at a fixed continuous wipe cycle.
When the right multi-function switch control sleeve
Delay position is selected, the Delay position cir-
cuitry within the switch directs a battery current
rear washer switch output signal input to the rear
wiper module electronic circuitry, which causes the
rear wiper motor to run at a fixed intermittent wipe
cycle. When the right multi-function switch control
8R - 34 REAR WIPERS/WASHERSWJ
REAR WIPERS/WASHERS (Continued)

stalk is moved to the rear Wash position, the Wash
position circuitry within the switch directs battery
current to the rear washer pump/motor unit, and to
both the rear wiper motor control and rear washer
switch output signal inputs of the rear wiper module
electronic circuitry, which causes the wiper motor to
run at a fixed cycle for as long as the Wash mode is
selected plus about three additional fixed wipe cycles.
The rear wiper module electronic circuitry controls
the switching of battery current to the rear wiper
motor brush, which controls wiper motor operation.
The intermittent wipe and wipe-after-wash features
of the rear wiper and washer system are both pro-
vided by the rear wiper module electronic circuitry.
The rear wiper module electronic circuitry also mon-
itors the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch and will
park the rear wiper blade off of the glass any time it
senses that the liftgate flip-up glass is ajar, the igni-
tion switch is turned to the Off position, or the right
multi-function switch control sleeve is moved to the
Off position. This feature ensures that the rear wiper
blade will not interfere with or be damaged by the
operation of the liftgate flip-up glass. However, if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position or the
liftgate flip-up glass is opened while the rear wiper is
operating, the right multi-function switch control
sleeve must be cycled to the Off position and back to
the On or Delay position after the ignition switch is
turned back On or the liftgate flip-up glass is closed
before the rear wiper will operate again.
Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for more information on the features and opera-
tion of the rear wiper and washer system.

JB. If OK, turn the ignition switch to the Off position
and go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open fused
ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit between the
JB and the ignition switch as required.
(6) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness
connector for the right multi-function switch from the
switch connector receptacle. Reconnect the battery
negative cable. Turn the ignition switch to the On
position. Check for battery voltage at the fused igni-
tion switch output (run-acc) circuit cavity of the
instrument panel wire harness connector for the
right multi-function switch. If OK, go to Step 7. If
not OK, repair the open fused ignition switch output

The other two heater elements (downstream sen-
sors 1/2 and 2/2) are controlled by the downstream
heater relay through output signals from the PCM.
To avoid a large simultaneous current surge, power
is delayed to the 2 downstream heater elements by
the PCM for approximately 2 seconds.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove PDC cover.
(2) Remove relay from PDC.
(3) Check condition of relay terminals and PDC
connector terminals for damage or corrosion. Repair
if necessary before installing relay.
(4) Check for pin height (pin height should be the
same for all terminals within the PDC connector).
Repair if necessary before installing relay.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install relay to PDC.
(2) Install cover to PDC.
O2S SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Oxygen Sensors (O2S) are attached to, and
protrude into the vehicle exhaust system. Depending
on the emission package, the vehicle may use a total
of either 2 or 4 sensors.
Federal Emissions Package:Two sensors are
used: upstream (referred to as 1/1) and downstream
(referred to as 1/2). With this emission package, the
upstream sensor (1/1) is located just before the main
catalytic convertor. The downstream sensor (1/2) is
located just after the main catalytic convertor.
4.7L V-8 With California Emissions Package:
On this emissions package, 4 sensors are used: 2
upstream (referred to as 1/1 and 2/1) and 2 down-
stream (referred to as 1/2 and 2/2). With this emis-
sion package, the right upstream sensor (2/1) is
located in the right exhaust downpipe just before the
mini-catalytic convertor. The left upstream sensor
(1/1) is located in the left exhaust downpipe just
before the mini-catalytic convertor. The right down-
stream sensor (2/2) is located in the right exhaust
downpipe just after the mini-catalytic convertor, and
before the main catalytic convertor. The left down-
stream sensor (1/2) is located in the left exhaust
downpipe just after the mini-catalytic convertor, and
before the main catalytic convertor.
4.0L 6±Cylinder With California Emissions
Package:On this emissions package, 4 sensors are
used: 2 upstream (referred to as 1/1 and 2/1) and 2
downstream (referred to as 1/2 and 2/2). With this
emission package, the rear/upper upstream sensor
(2/1) is located in the exhaust downpipe just beforethe rear mini-catalytic convertor. The front/upper
upstream sensor (1/1) is located in the exhaust down-
pipe just before the front mini-catalytic convertor.
The rear/lower downstream sensor (2/2) is located in
the exhaust downpipe just after the rear mini-cata-
lytic convertor, and before the main catalytic conver-
tor. The front/lower downstream sensor (1/2) is
located in the exhaust downpipe just after the front
mini-catalytic convertor, and before the main cata-
lytic convertor.
OPERATION
An O2 sensor is a galvanic battery that provides
the PCM with a voltage signal (0-1 volt) inversely
proportional to the amount of oxygen in the exhaust.
In other words, if the oxygen content is low, the volt-
age output is high; if the oxygen content is high the
output voltage is low. The PCM uses this information
to adjust injector pulse-width to achieve the
14.7±to±1 air/fuel ratio necessary for proper engine
operation and to control emissions.
The O2 sensor must have a source of oxygen from
outside of the exhaust stream for comparison. Cur-
rent O2 sensors receive their fresh oxygen (outside
air) supply through the O2 sensor case housing.
Four wires (circuits) are used on each O2 sensor: a
12±volt feed circuit for the sensor heating element; a
ground circuit for the heater element; a low-noise
sensor return circuit to the PCM, and an input cir-
cuit from the sensor back to the PCM to detect sen-
sor operation.
Oxygen Sensor Heaters/Heater Relays:
Depending on the emissions package, the heating ele-
ments within the sensors will be supplied voltage
from either the ASD relay, or 2 separate oxygen sen-
sor relays. Refer to Wiring Diagrams to determine
which relays are used.
The O2 sensor uses a Positive Thermal Co-efficient
(PTC) heater element. As temperature increases,
resistance increases. At ambient temperatures
around 70ÉF, the resistance of the heating element is
approximately 4.5 ohms on 4.0L engines. It is
approximately 13.5 ohms on the 4.7L engine. As the
sensor's temperature increases, resistance in the
heater element increases. This allows the heater to
maintain the optimum operating temperature of
approximately 930É-1100ÉF (500É-600É C). Although
the sensors operate the same, there are physical dif-
ferences, due to the environment that they operate
in, that keep them from being interchangeable.
Maintaining correct sensor temperature at all
times allows the system to enter into closed loop
operation sooner. Also, it allows the system to remain
in closed loop operation during periods of extended
idle.
