LOWER DRIVE UNIT TRACK &
RACK
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power sliding side door
utilize a lower drive unit track or door track and
rack assembly. This track provides a mating rack
gear (Fig. 13) for the lower drive unit to engage. The
track also accepts the lower hinge rollers, which
helps support the weight of the side door as well as
providing a smooth surface for the hinge rollers to
move upon.
The lower door track is a replaceable component.
Consult your Mopar parts catalog for specific part
numbers.
OPERATION
With the start of a power door open cycle, the door
motor drives the flex drive assembly. The flex drive
assembly drives the lower drive unit. A metal drive
gear which is part of the lower drive unit, meshes
with the door track rack teeth and moves the door
into the full open position. The same operation
repeats itself, during a power close cycle only the sys-
tem rotates in the opposite direction.

DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
MOTOR
Verify battery condition before testing door lock
motor(s) (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYS-
TEM/BATTERY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
To determine which motor is faulty, check each
individual door for electrical lock and unlock or dis-
connect the motor connectors one at a time, while
operating the door lock switch. In the event that
none of the motors work, the problem may be caused
by a shorted motor or a bad switch. Disconnecting
the defective motor will allow the others to work.To test an individual door lock motor, disconnect
the electrical connector from the motor. To lock the
door, connect a 12 volt power source to the positive
pin of the lock motor and a ground wire to the other
pin. 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds. To unlock the
door reverse the wire connections at the motor pin
terminals. If these results are NOT obtained, replace
the motor.

AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT
MIRROR
DESCRIPTION
An automatic dimming inside day/night rear view
mirror and an automatic dimming driver side outside
rear view mirror are available factory-installed
options on this model. Following is a general descrip-
tion of this optional equipment.
The automatic day/night mirror is able to automat-
ically change its reflectance. A thin layer of electro-
chromic 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 to reduce the glare of
headlamps approaching the vehicle from the rear.
For removal procedures, (Refer to 23 - BODY/IN-
TERIOR/REAR VIEW MIRROR - REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The ambient photocell sensor faces forward, to
detect the outside light levels. A second sensor faces
rearward to detect the light level received through
the vehicles back window. When the difference
between the two light levels becomes too great (the
light level received at the rear of the mirror is much
higher than that at the front of the mirror), the mir-
ror begins to darken.
The mirror switch allows the driver a manual con-
trol of whether the automatic dimming feature is
operational. When AUTO is selected a small Light-
Emitting Diode (LED), to the right of the mirror
switch, is illuminated. The automatic dimming fea-
ture will only operate when the ignition switch is in
the On position. The mirror also senses the backup
lamp circuit, and will automatically disable its self-
dimming feature whenever the transmission gear
selector is in the Reverse position.
NOTE: The mirror always defaults to an ON state
upon ignition.
The driver side automatic dimming mirror is stan-
dard with the automatic dimming inside mirror. The
signal to control the dimming of that mirror is gen-
erated by the automatic day/night inside rear view
mirror circuitry. That signal is then delivered to the
driver side outside rear view mirror on a hard wired
circuit.
The automatic day/night mirror cannot be
repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire inside rear
view mirror assembly must be replaced.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AUTOMATIC DAY /
NIGHT MIRROR
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, 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.
(1) Check the fuse in the intelligent power module.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted cir-
cuit or component as required and replace the faulty
fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fuse in the intelli-
gent power module. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK,
repair the open circuit to the ignition switch as
required.
(3) Unplug the wire harness connector from the
automatic day/night mirror. Check for battery voltage
at the fused ignition switch output circuit cavity of
the automatic day/night mirror wire harness connec-
tor. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open
circuit to the junction block as required.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Check for continuity between the ground circuit cav-
ity of the automatic day/night mirror wire harness
connector and a good ground. There should be conti-
nuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the cir-
cuit to ground as required.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. Set
the parking brake. Place the transmission gear selec-
tor lever in the Reverse position. Check for battery
voltage at the backup lamp switch output circuit cav-
ity of the automatic day/night mirror wire harness
connector. If voltage is present, reinstall the auto-
matic day/night mirror wire harness connector and
go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open circuit as
required.
(6) Place the transmission gear selector lever in
the Neutral position. Place the automatic day/night
mirror switch in the On (LED in the switch is
lighted) position. Cover the forward facing ambient
photocell sensor to keep out any ambient light.
NOTE: The ambient photocell sensor must be cov-
ered completely, so that no light reaches the sen-
sor. Use a finger pressed tightly against the sensor,
or cover the sensor completely with electrical tape.
(7)
Shine a light into the rearward facing headlamp
photocell sensor. The automatic day/night mirror
should darken. The automatic day/night mirror should
darken within 2 minutes if testing for the first time.
For immediate response, turn the vehicle OFF and
back ON with the forward-facing light sensor still cov-
RSPOWER MIRRORS8N-47
ered. This defeats the day-detect logic. If OK, go to
Step 8. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror unit.
(8) With the mirror darkened, place the transmis-
sion gear selector lever in the Reverse position. The
automatic day/night mirror should return to its nor-
mal reflectance. If not OK, replace the faulty mirror
unit.
Bench testing both mirrors can be done, of care is
exercised. For an inside mirror, the pin closest to he
mount is 12V (+), the next is 12V (-). The third is
reverse override. The fourth is outside mirror (+),
and the fifth is outside mirror (-).Do not apply 12
volts to the fourth and fifth pins.With 12 volts
on pins 1 and 2, the mirror can be tested by blocking
the rear sensor and shining a light into the forward
sensor. For an outside mirror, there is a 2±pin con-
nector. Applying 1.2 volts will cause the mirror to
dim. If the mirror does not dim, the entire glass
assembly can be replaced just as it is when the glass
is broken.
WARNING: Do not apply 12 volts to the outside mir-
ror. Damage to the mirror will result.
POWER FOLDAWAY MIRROR
SWITCH - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
These vehicles may be equipped with Power Fold-
away Mirrors. This feature allows both the driver
and passenger side view mirrors to fold inward
(retract) on demand. The vehicle has an additional
switch located on the steering column that controls
the folding function of the mirror assembly (Fig. 2).
The fold-away side view mirror is attached to the
vehicle's door in the same manner as mirrors without
the fold-away option. The fold-away mirrors unique
option is the internal motor which allows the mirrors
to fold inward on demand. The fold-away mirror
motor is not serviceable separately and if a motor is
found to be faulty the entire side view mirror must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When the mirror retract switch is depressed, both
of the side view mirrors will fold inward, Thus mak-
ing the overall width of the vehicle the smallest pos-
sible. This can be helpful were parking space is a
absolute minimum.
When the driver's door is opened, only the driver's
door mirror will unfold. If the passenger door is
opened, both mirrors will unfold.
The power fold away mirror system consists of the
following components: mirror switch, side view mir-ror, relay, wires and fuse. Refer to the appropriate
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 connectors, splices
and grounds.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the upper and lower steering column
shroud (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN/LOWER
SHROUD - REMOVAL).
(3) Disconnect electrical harness connector.

WARNING: SOME VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH
SEATBACK MOUNTED AIRBAGS. BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO DIAGNOSE OR SERVICE ANY
SEAT OR POWER SEAT SYSTEM COMPONENT
YOU MUST FIRST DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE
BATTERY NEGATIVE CABLE. THEN WAIT TWO MIN-
UTES FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DIS-
CHARGE BEFORE FURTHER SYSTEM SERVICE.
THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE
AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD
RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) If the vehicle is equipped with the memory sys-
tem and the driver side power seat exhibits a inter-
rupted or jerky motion, there is a possibility that the
wires leading from the memory seat module to the
memory seat motor are mis-wired. To check the con-
cern, obtain a DRBIIItscan tool and energize each
axis one at a time. If any axis stops in approximately
2 seconds (without hitting the end of travel), the
feedback for that axis may have an open, short or be
mis-wired. Check the wiring to that axis (module to
motor). Fix any wiring problems and retry that axis.
(2) If any power seat is not operational in any
direction, check the power seat circuit breaker,
located under the trailing edge of the driver side
power seat. Refer to the Power Distribution section of
this service manual for the circuit breaker diagnosis
and testing procedure.
(3) If the power seat circuit breaker is OK, check
for proper battery and ground connections at the
power seat switch and/or memory seat module. Fix
any wiring problems and retry.
(4) Check the power seat system wire harness con-
nections and pins to ensure proper circuit continuity
and ground paths. For complete circuit diagrams,
refer toWiring Diagrams.
(5) With the dome lamp on, apply the power seat
switch in the direction of the failure. If the dome
lamp dims, the seat may be jamming. Check under
and behind the seat for binding or obstructions. If
the dome lamp does not dim, proceed with testing of
the individual components and circuits in the power
seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - MEMORY SYSTEM
In order to obtain conclusive testing of the memory
system, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the memory system components must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the memory system requires the use of a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRB IIItscan tool can provideconfirmation 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 memory system is receiving the proper hard
wired inputs and relaying the proper hard wired out-
puts to perform its functions.
(1) If the driver power seat exhibits a interrupted
or jerky motion, there is a possibility that the wires
leading from the memory seat module to the memory
seat motor are mis-wired. To check the concern,
obtain a DRB IIItscan tool and energize each axis
one at a time. If any axis stops in approximately 2
seconds (without hitting the end of travel), the feed-
back for that axis may have an open, short or be mis-
wired. Check the wiring to that axis (module to
motor). Fix any wiring problems and retry that axis.
Refer to Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit sche-
matic or connector pin-out information.

DRIVER POWER SEAT TRACK
DESCRIPTION
The eight-way driver side power seat option
includes a electrically operated power seat track
located under the driver side front seat. The front
power seat track on the driver side of the vehicle also
provides the mounting location for the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module (MSMM). The power seat circuit
breakers are mounted on the rear of the driver side
power seat track, just behind the seat rear trim
panel. The lower half of the power seat track is
secured to the floor panel via four studs and nuts
that must be accessed from the underside of the vehi-
cle. Four bolts secure the bottom of the seat cushion
pan to the upper half of the power seat track unit.
Four additional bolts secure the seat back frame to
the power seat track unit.
The power seat track unit includes four reversible
electric motors that are secured to the upper half of
the track unit. Each motor moves the seat adjuster
through a combination of worm-drive gearboxes and
screw-type drive units. Each of the four power seat
track motors used on models equipped with the
optional memory system incorporates a position
potentiometer integral to the motor assembly, which
electronically monitors the motor position. This
enables the memory system to function by referenc-
ing the motor positions programmed into the memory
seat/mirror module.
The front and rear of the seat are operated by two
separate vertical adjustment motors. These motors
can be operated independently of each other, tilting
the entire seat assembly forward or rearward; or,
they can be operated in unison by selecting the
proper power seat switch functions, which will raise
or lower the entire seat assembly. A third motor is
the horizontal adjustment motor, which moves the
seat track in the forward and rearward directions.
The forth motor is the recliner adjustment motor,
which moves the seat back in the forward and rear-
ward directions.
The power seat track unit cannot be repaired, and
is serviced only as a complete unit. If any componentin this unit is faulty or damaged, the entire power
seat track unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
When the driver side power seat switch control
knob or knobs are actuated, a battery feed and a
ground path are applied through the switch contacts
to the power seat track or recliner adjuster motor.
The selected adjuster motor operates to move the
seat track or recliner through its drive unit in the
selected direction until the switch is released, or
until the travel limit of the adjuster is reached.
When the switch is moved in the opposite direction,
the battery feed and ground path to the motor are
reversed through the switch contacts. This causes the
adjuster motor to run in the opposite direction.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any
direction after the adjuster has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motors each contain a
self-resetting circuit breaker to protect them from
overload. However, consecutive or frequent resetting
of the circuit breaker must not be allowed to con-
tinue, or the motor may be damaged.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the power seat switch functions
and the seat adjusting procedures.
