2004 CHRYSLER VOYAGER Temperature

OPERATION
When the rear window defogger button is
depressed to the On position, current is directed to
the rear defogger grid lines and the heated power
mirrors (if equipped). The heated grid lines heat the
glass to help clear the rear window and side mirror
surfaces of fog or frost.
The defogger system is controlled by a momentary
switch located in the A/C-heater control on the
instrument panel. A yellow indicator in the switch
will illuminate to indicate when the defogger system
is turned on. The integrated power module (IPM)
contains the defogger system control circuitry.
NOTE:
The rear window defogger turns off automat-
ically after approximately 10 minutes of initial opera-
tion. Each following activation cycle of the defogger
system will last approximately five minutes.
The defogger system will be automatically 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 auto-
matically 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 defog-
ger switch a second time.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WINDOW
DEFOGGER SYSTEM
The electrically heated rear window defogger oper-
ation can be checked on the vehicle in the following
manner:
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(2) Make sure that the defogger switch is Off.
(3) Using a ammeter on the battery, turn the rear
defogger control switch to the On position, a distinct
increase in amperage draw should be noted.
(4) The rear window defogger operation can be
checked by feeling the glass. A distinct difference in
temperature between the grid lines and adjacent
clear glass should be detected in three to four min-
utes of operation.
(5) Using a DC voltmeter, contact the negative
lead to Point B, and the positive lead to Point A (Fig.
2). The voltmeter should read 10-14 volts.
NOTE: Illumination of the LED indicator means that
there is power available at the switch, but does not
necessarily verify system operation.
(6) If turning the defogger switch On produced no
distinct current draw on the ammeter, the problem
should be isolated in the following manner:²Confirm that the ignition switch is On.
²Make sure that the heated rear window feed
wire is connected to the terminal and that the
ground wire is in fact grounded.
²Make sure that fuse 13 (40 amp) in the inte-
grated power module (IPM) is OK.
(7) When the above steps have been completed and
the system is still inoperative, one or more of the fol-
lowing could be defective. It may be necessary to con-
nect a DRBIIItscan tool to perform further
diagnostics. Refer to Body Diagnostic Procedures.
²Rear window defogger switch in the A/C-heater
control.
²J1850 bus communication between the A/C-
heater control and the front control module (FCM).
²Rear window defogger relay in the IPM.
²Rear window defogger relay control circuity in
the IPM.
²Check for a loose wire connector or a wire
pushed out of a connector.
²Rear window grid lines (all grid lines would
have to be broken, or one of the feed wires not con-
nected for the system to be inoperative).
(8) If turning the rear window defogger switch On
produces severe voltmeter deflection, the circuit
should be closely checked for a shorting condition.
(9) If the system operation has been verified but
LED indicator does not illuminate, replace the A/C-
heater control.
(10) For detailed wiring information, refer to Wir-
ing Diagrams.

REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The rear window defogger switch is integrated into
the A/C-heater control mounted in the center of the
instrument panel (Fig. 5). The rear window defogger
switch and the rear window defogger LED indicator
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
A/C-heater control must be replaced.
OPERATION
An LED indicator will illuminate when the rear
window defogger switch is activated. The switch
energizes the A/C-heater control module which then
requests the front control module (FCM) to activate
the rear window defogger relay via the J1850 com-
munication bus. The rear window defogger relay con-
trols the current to flow to the grids of the rear
window defogger and the heated power side view
mirrors. The defogger relay will be on for approxi-
mately 10 minutes or until the control switch or igni-
tion is turned off.

HEATED MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
The optional heated mirror system only operates in
concert with the rear window defogger system, and
will be automatically shut 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
heated mirror system will automatically shut off
after about five minutes.
The heated mirror system will automatically shut
off if the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
or it can be shut off manually by pressing the rear
window defogger switch a second time.
OPERATION
When the rear window defogger switch (Fig. 1) is
in the On position, an electric heater grid located
behind the glass of each of the outside rear view mir-
rors is energized. When energized, each of these
heater grids produce heat to help clear the outside
rear view mirrors of ice, snow, or fog.
The heated mirror system is controlled by a
momentary rear window defogger switch on the A/C-
heater control. An amber indicator lamp in the
switch will illuminate to indicate when the defogger
system is turned on.
If the outside mirror heating grids are both inoper-
ative, refer to DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REARWINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM in his group. If
only one of the outside mirror heating grids is inop-
erative, Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIR-
RORS - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING.
The heating grid behind each outside mirror glass
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
entire power mirror assembly must be replaced.

Refer to the description of the heated seat switch
later in this section for additional information.
Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat sys-
tem 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 differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
heated seat system components through the use of a
combination of soldered splices and splice block con-
nectors. Refer to Wiring for complete system wiring
schematics. The wiring information also includes the
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
The heated seat system components operate on
battery current received through a fuse in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) on a fused ignition
switch output (run) circuit from the Body Control
Module. The system will only operate when the igni-
tion switch is in the On position. The heated seat
system will be turned Off automatically whenever
the ignition switch is turned to any position except
On. Also, the heated seat system will not operate
when the surface temperature of the seat cushion
cover at either heated seat sensor is above the
designed temperature set points of the system. See
the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features, use and operation of the
heated seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
SYSTEM
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the heated seat system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide
confirmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that
all of the electronic modules are sending and receiv-
ing the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and
that the heated seat modules are receiving the
proper hard wired inputs from and relaying the
proper hard wired outputs to the Body Control Mod-
ule in order to perform its functions. Refer toWiring
Diagramsfor complete wiring schematics. The wir-
ing information also includes the 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 connec-
tors, splices and grounds.
DRIVER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center bezel (Fig. 2). The two three-
position rocker-type switches, one switch for each
front seat, are incorporated into one large switch
assembly that also includes the hazard, rear window
wiper and washer switches. The heated seat switches
each provide a resistor multiplexed signal to its
respective Heated Seat Module (HSM) through sepa-
rate hard wired circuits. Each switch has an Off,
Low, and High position so that both the driver and
the front seat passenger can select a preferred seat
heating mode. Each switch has two Light-Emitting
Diodes (LED) which light to indicate that the heater
for the seat is turned on.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch assembly must be replaced.
OPERATION
There are three positions that can be selected with
each of the heated seat switches: Off, Low, or High.
When the left side of the switch rocker is fully
depressed, the Low position is selected and the low
position LED indicator illuminates. When the right
side of the switch rocker is fully depressed, the High
position is selected and the high position LED indi-

HEATED SEAT ELEMENTS
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat system includes two seat heating
elements in each front seat, one for the seat cushion
and the other for the seat back. The two elements for
each seat that are connected in series with the
Heated Seat Module (HSM). The temperature sensor
is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) ther-
mistor. One temperature sensor is used for each seat,
and it is located on the seat cushion heating element
for all models.
The seat heating elements are sewn into the seat
cushion cover trim and seat back cover trim units.
The heated seat elements and the temperature sen-
sor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or
damaged, the seat element assembly must be
replaced. Refer to the procedure in this section.
OPERATION
The heated seat elements resist the flow of electri-
cal current. When battery current is passed through
the elements, the resistance of the elements to the
current flow is released in the form of heat. The tem-
perature sensor is a NTC thermistor. When the tem-
perature of the seat cushion cover rises, the
resistance of the sensor decreases. The heated seat
module supplies a five-volt signal to one side of each
sensor, and monitors the voltage drop through the
sensor on a return circuit. The heated seat module
uses this temperature sensor input to monitor the
temperature of the seat, and regulates the current
flow to the seat heating elements accordingly.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
ELEMENTS
The wire harness connectors for the seat cushion
and seat back heating elements are located under the
seat, at the heated seat module. For circuit descrip-
tions and diagrams, refer to section 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams.
In order to access and test the heated seat ele-
ments it will be necessary to remove the appropriate

(3) Connect the negative battery cable.
(4) Verify heated seat system operation.
(5) Install the appropriate seat cushion or seat
back trim cover. Make certain the seat wire harness
is correctly routed through the seat and seat back.
The excess wire between the cushion and back ele-
ments should be securely tucked between the rear of
the cushion foam and the rear carpet flap of the trim
cover.
HEATED SEAT SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Two heated seat sensors are used per vehicle, one
in each front seat cushion heating element. The
heated seat temperature sensor is a Negative Tem-
perature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor.
The heated seat sensors cannot be repaired or
adjusted and if found to be faulty, the complete
heated seat cushion element must be replaced.
OPERATION
The temperature sensor is a NTC thermistor.
When the temperature of the seat cushion cover
rises, the resistance of the sensor decreases. The
heated seat module supplies a five-volt current to one
side of each sensor, and monitors the voltage drop
through the sensor on a return circuit. The heated
seat module uses this temperature sensor input to
monitor the temperature of the seat, and regulates
the current flow to the seat heating elements accord-
ingly.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
SENSOR
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring
Diagrams.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the green 4-way heated seat mod-
ule wire harness connector.
(2) Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance
between cavities 2 and 3. The sensor resistance
should be between 50 kilohms at 15É C (60É F) and 2
kilohms at 30É C (85É F). If not OK, replace the
faulty seat element and sensor assembly.
PASSENGER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center bezel (Fig. 6). The two three-
position rocker-type switches, one switch for each
front seat, are incorporated into one large switchassembly that also includes the hazard, rear window
wiper and washer switches. The heated seat switches
each provide a resistor multiplexed signal to its
respective Heated Seat Module (HSM) through sepa-
rate hard wired circuits. Each switch has an Off,
Low, and High position so that both the driver and
the front seat passenger can select a preferred seat
heating mode. Each switch has two Light-Emitting
Diodes (LED) which light to indicate that the heater
for the seat is turned on.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch assembly must be replaced.
OPERATION
There are three positions that can be selected with
each of the heated seat switches: Off, Low, or High.
When the left side of the switch rocker is fully
depressed, the Low position is selected and the low
position LED indicator illuminates. When the right
side of the switch rocker is fully depressed, the High
position is selected and the high position LED indi-
cator illuminates. When the switch rocker is moved
to its neutral position (middle), Off is selected and
both LED indicators are extinguished.
Each switch provides separate resistor multiplexed
hard wire inputs to its respective Heated Seat Mod-
ule (HSM) to indicate the selected switch position.
The heated seat module responds to the heated seat
switch status messages by controlling the output to
the seat heater elements of the selected seat. The

REMOVAL
When replacing the spark plugs and spark plug
cables, route the cables correctly and secure them in
the appropriate retainers. Failure to route the cables
properly can cause the radio to reproduce ignition
noise, cross ignition of the spark plugs orshort cir-
cuit the cables to ground.
Always remove cables by grasping at the boot,
rotating the boot 1/2 turn, and pulling straight back
in a steady motion.
(1) Prior to removing the spark plug, spray com-
pressed air around the spark plug hole and the area
around the spark plug.
(2) Remove the spark plug using a quality socket
with a foam insert.
(3) Inspect the spark plug condition.
INSTALLATION
When replacing the spark plugs and spark plug
cables, route the cables correctly and secure them in
the appropriate retainers. Failure to route the cables
properly can cause the radio to reproduce ignition
noise, cross ignition of the spark plugs orshort cir-
cuit the cables to ground.
(1) Coat threads of spark plug with anti-seize. Be
sure not to get anti-seizeANYWHERE BUT ONTHE THREADS OF THE SPARK PLUG as

(3) Tighten spark plugs to 17.5 N´m (13 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(4) Install spark plug cables over spark plugs. A
click will be heard and felt when the cable properly
attaches to the spark plug.
SPARK PLUG CABLE
DESCRIPTION
Spark Plug cables are sometimes referred to as
secondary ignition wires. The wires transfer electri-
cal current from the ignition coil pack to individual
spark plugs at each cylinder. The resistive spark plug
cables are of nonmetallic construction. The cables
provide suppression of radio frequency emissions
from the ignition system.
Check the spark plug cable connections for good
contact at the coil, and spark plugs. Terminals should
be fully seated. The insulators should be in good con-
dition and should fit tightly on the coil, and spark
plugs. Spark plug cables with insulators that are
cracked or torn must be replaced.
Clean Spark Plug cables with a cloth moistened
with a non-flammable solvent. Wipe the cables dry.
Check for brittle or cracked insulation. The spark
plug cables and spark plug boots are made from high
temperature materials.
REMOVAL - 2.0/2.4L
Failure to route the cables properly could cause the
radio to reproduce ignition noise, cross ignition of the
spark plugs or short circuit the cables to ground.
Remove spark plug cable from coil first.
Always remove the spark plug cable by grasping
the top of the spark plug insulator, turning the boot
1/2 turn and pulling straight up in a steady motion.
INSTALLATION - 2.0/2.4L
Failure to route the cables properly could cause the
radio to reproduce ignition noise, cross ignition of the
spark plugs or short circuit the cables to ground.

DESCRIPTION
The instrumentation gauges are contained in a
subdial assembly within the instrument cluster. The
individual gauges are not serviceable. If one of the
cluster gauges becomes faulty, the entire cluster
would require replacement.
The Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC) with a
tachometer is equipped with a electronic vacuum flu-
orescent transmission range indicator (PRND3L),
odometer, and trip odometer display.
The MIC without a tachometer is equipped with a
Light Emitting Diode (LED) transmission range indi-
cator (PRND3L) and a vacuum fluorescent odometer
display.
The MIC is equipped with the following warning
lamps.

WATER IN FUEL LAMP - EXPORT
The Water In Fuel Lamp is located in the message
center. When moisture is found within the fuel sys-
tem, the sensor sends a message via the PCI data
bus to the instrument cluster. The MIC illuminates
the bulb in the message center, The sensor is located
underneath the vehicle, directly above the rear axle.
The sensor is housed within the fuel filter/water sep-
arator assembly cover. The sensor is not serviced sep-
arately. If found defective, the entire assembly cover
must be replaced.
OPERATION
Refer to the vehicle Owner's Manual for operation
instructions and conditions for the Instrument Clus-
ter Gauges.
WATER IN FUEL LAMP - EXPORT
The Water In Fuel Sensor is a resistive type
switch. It is calibrated to sense the different resis-
tance between diesel fuel and water. When water
enters the fuel system, it is caught in the bottom of
the fuel filter/water separator assembly, where the
sensor is located. Water has less resistance than die-
sel fuel. The sensor then sends a PCI data bus mes-
sage to the instrument cluster to illuminate the
lamp.
If the lamp is inoperative, perform the self diag-
nostic test on the instrument cluster to check the
lamp operation before continuing diagnosis.
