OPERATION - TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
Lane change signaling is actuated by applying par-
tial turn signal stalk movement toward the direction
desired until the indicator lamps flashes in the
instrument cluster. When the switch stalk is released
the stalk will spring back into the neutral position
turning OFF the turn signal.
With the ignition switch ON and the turn signal
switch stalk actuated left or right, current flows
through the:
²Multi-function switch
²Body Control Module
²Integrated Power Module (IPM)
²Turn indicator lamp
²Front and rear turn signal bulbs.
A chime will sound after the vehicle has traveled a
distance of approximately 1.0 mile and a speed of 15
mph, with the turn signal ON.

Following completion of these tests, the electron-
ics module will display one of the following messages:
a.Pass Self Test (EVIC only), PASS (CT,
CMTC)- The electronics module is working properly.
b.Failed Self Test (EVIC only), FAIL (CT,
CMTC)- The electronics module has an internal fail-
ure. The electronics module is faulty and must be
replaced.
c.Failed J1850 Communication (EVIC only),
BUS (CT, CMTC)- The electronics module is not
receiving proper message input through the J1850
PCI data bus circuit. This can result from one or
more faulty electronic modules in the vehicle, or from
a faulty PCI data bus. The use of a DRB IIItscan
tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual
are required for further diagnosis.
NOTE: If the compass functions, but accuracy is
suspect, it may be necessary to perform a variation
adjustment. This procedure allows the compass
unit to accommodate variations in the earth's mag-
netic field strength, based on geographic location.
Refer to Compass Variation Adjustment in the Stan-
dard Procedures section of this group.
NOTE: If the compass reading displays dashes, and
only ªCALº appears in the display, demagnetizing
may be necessary to remove excessive residual
magnetic fields from the vehicle. Refer to Compass
Demagnetizing in the Standard Procedures section
of this group.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - READING/
COURTESY LAMP REPLACEMENT
(1) Open hood, disconnect and isolate the negative
battery cable remote terminal from the remote bat-
tery post.
(2) Remove the reading/courtesy lamp lens. Using
a trim stick, gently pry the forward edge of the read-
ing/courtesy lamp lens outward.
(3) Remove the reading/courtesy lamp socket from
the overhead console. Rotate the reading/courtesy
lamp socket one quarter turn counter clockwise.
(4) Remove the lamp and socket assembly.
(5) Reverse the above procedure to install.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - MODULE LAMP
REPLACEMENT
(1) Remove the overhead console (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - REMOVAL).
(2) Using a flat blade screwdriver twist out socket/
lamp (Fig. 1).(3) Replace lamp(s) as necessary.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
CALIBRATION
CAUTION: Do not place any external magnets, such
as magnetic roof mount antennas, in the vicinity of
the compass. Do not use magnetic tools when ser-
vicing the overhead console.
The electronic compass unit features a self-cali-
brating design, which simplifies the calibration pro-
cedure. This feature automatically updates the
compass calibration while the vehicle is being driven.
This allows the compass unit to compensate for small
changes in the residual magnetism that the vehicle
may acquire during normal use. If the compass read-
ings appear to be erratic or out of calibration, per-
form the following calibration procedure. Also, new
service replacement Electronic Modules (EVIC,
CMTC, CT) must have their compass calibrated
using this procedure. Do not attempt to calibrate the
compass near large metal objects such as other vehi-
cles, large buildings, or bridges; or, near overhead or
underground power lines.
NOTE: Whenever the compass is calibrated manu-
ally, the variance number must also be reset. Refer
to Compass Variation Adjustment in this group.

(7) Connect the degaussing tool to an electrical
outlet, while keeping the tool at least 61 centimeters
(2 feet) away from the compass unit.
(8) Slowly approach the center line of the roof
panel at the windshield header, with the degaussing
tool connected.
(9) Contact the roof panel with the plastic coated
tip of the degaussing tool. Be sure that the template
is in place to avoid scratching the roof panel. Using a
slow, back-and-forth sweeping motion, and allowing
13 millimeters (0.50 inch) between passes, move the
tool at least 11 centimeters (4 inches) to each side of
the roof center line, and 28 centimeters (11 inches)
back from the windshield header.
(10) With the degaussing tool still energized,
slowly back it away from the roof panel. When the
tip of the tool is at least 61 centimeters (2 feet) from
the roof panel, disconnect the tool.
(11) Calibrate the compass and adjust the compass
variance (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
VARIATION ADJUSTMENT
Compass variance, also known as magnetic decli-
nation, is the difference in angle between magnetic
north and true geographic north. In some geographic
locations, the difference between magnetic and geo-
graphic north is great enough to cause the compassto give false readings. If this problem occurs, the
compass variance setting may need to be changed.
To set the compass variance:
(1) Using the Variance Settings map, find your
geographic location and note the zone number (Fig.
4).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. If
the compass/thermometer data is not currently being
displayed, momentarily depress and release the C/T
push button to reach the compass/thermometer dis-
play.
(3) On Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) and Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
equipped vehicles depress the Reset push button and
hold the button down until ªVAR = XXº appears in
the display. This takes about five seconds. On Com-
pass Temperature Module (CT) equipped vehicles
depress the C/T push button and US/M push button
down until ªVAR = XXº appears in the display. This
takes about five seconds.
(4) Release the push button(s). ªVAR =XX º will
remain in the display. ªXXº equals the current vari-
ance zone setting.
(5) On Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) and Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
equipped vehicles momentarily depress and release
theSTEPpush button to step through the zone
numbers, until the zone number for your geographic
location appears in the display. On Compass Temper-
ature Module (CT) equipped vehicles depress the

until the zone number for your geographic location
appears in the display.
(6) On Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) and Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
equipped vehicles momentarily depress and release
theRESETpush button to enter the displayed zone
number into the EVIC/CMTC module memory. On
Compass Temperature Module (CT) equipped vehicles
depress theC/Tpush button to enter the displayed
zone number into the electronic module memory.
(7) Confirm that the correct directions are now
indicated by the compass.

ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO
CENTER
DESCRIPTION
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
is a module located in the overhead console on some
models. The EVIC module features a large Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) screen for displaying
information, and back-lit push button switches
labeled C/T (compass/thermometer), RESET, STEP,
and MENU.
The EVIC module contains a central processing
unit and interfaces with other electronic modules in
the vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) J1850 data bus circuit. The PCI data
bus circuit allows the sharing of sensor information.
This helps to reduce wire harness complexity, reduce
internal controller hardware, and reduce 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.
The EVIC ªMenuº push button provides the vehicle
operator with a user interface, which allows the
selection of several optional customer programmable
electronic features to suit individual preferences.
Refer toELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMA-
TION CENTER PROGRAMMINGin the Standard
Procedures section of this group for more information
on the customer programmable feature options.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional univer-
sal transmitter transceiver, the EVIC will also dis-
play messages and an icon indicating when the
universal transmitter transceiver is being trained,
which of the three transmitter buttons is transmit-
ting, and when the transceiver is cleared.
Data input for all EVIC functions, including VFD
dimming level, is received through the J1850 PCI
data bus circuit. The EVIC module uses its internal
programming 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-
