UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
A Universal Transmitter transceiver is available on
some vehicles. The universal transmitter transceiver
is integral to the Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) and the Compass Mini-Trip Computer
(CMTC) modules, which are located in the overhead
console. The only visible component of the universal
transmitter are the three transmitter push buttons
centered between the modules push buttons located
just rearward of the display screen in the overhead
console. The three universal transmitter push but-
tons are identified with one, two or three light indi-
cators so that they can be easily identified.
Each of the three universal transmitter push but-
tons controls an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained to
transmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-
tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The universal transmitter is capable of operat-
ing systems using either rolling code or non-rolling
code technology.
The electronics module displays messages and a
small house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots
corresponding to the three transmitter buttons to
indicate the status of the universal transmitter. The
EVIC messages are:
²Cleared Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the universal transmitter
have been successfully cleared.
²Training- Indicates that the universal trans-
mitter is in its transmitter learning mode.
²Trained- Indicates that the universal transmit-
ter has successfully acquired a new transmitter code.
²Transmit- Indicates that a trained universal
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
universal transmitter is transmitting.
The universal transmitter cannot be repaired, and
is available for service only as a unit with the EVIC
or CMTC modules. If any of these components is
faulty or damaged, the complete EVIC or CMTC
module must be replaced.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
If both the Universal Transmitter and the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) are inoper-
ative, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the Universal
Transmitter is inoperative, but the EVIC is operating
normally, retrain the Transmitter with a known good
transmitter (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE - SETTING TRANSMITTER
CODES). If the unit is still inoperative, test the uni-
versal transmitter with the Radio Frequency Detec-
tor special tool as described below (Fig. 4):
(1) Turn the Radio Frequency (RF) Detector ON. A
ªchirpº will sound and the green power LED will
light. If the green LED does not light, replace the
battery.
(2) Hold the RF detector within one inch of the
TRAINED universal transmitter and press any of the
transmitters buttons.
(3) The red signal detection LEDs will light and
the tool will beep if a radio signal is detected. Repeat
this test three times.

POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
the components of the power liftgate system are:
²Liftgate gear motor assembly
²Latch assembly
²Lift gear and rod
²Power liftgate control module
²Chime/thermistor
²Full open switch
²Engage actuator
²Pinch sensor
²Liftgate handle switch
²Overhead console switch
²Key fob switches (Fig. 1)
²Pawl switch
²Ratchet switch
The power liftgate system has its own power lift-
gate control module, located on the vehicles left body
D-pillar behind the trim panel. The power liftgate
gear motor assembly is located just above the control
module. The latch assembly is located in the bottom
center of the power liftgate, below the exterior lift-
gate handle switch. The power liftgate full open
switch, engage actuator, lift gear and rod are part of
the liftgate gear motor assembly. The pawl and
ratchet switches are part of the latch assembly. The
pinch sensors are located along the right and left
sides of the power liftgate, just above the body line.The liftgate handle switch is a power release switch
and is located in the rear light bar assembly, just
above the license plate. The overhead console switch
is a power open and close command switch located in
the vehicles overhead console.
Software technology has enabled the power liftgate
control module to detect resistance to liftgate travel,
which allows the power liftgate to stop and reverse
direction anytime an obstruction is felt or any of the
command switches are operated (only in closing
direction). Battery voltage is supplied to the power
liftgate system through a 40 amp fuse, located in the
Integrated Power Module (IPM) assembly. If the
power liftgate system develops a fault, the power lift-
gate can still be operated manually with a key, sim-
ilar to a manual liftgate.
The power liftgate control module communicates
on the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
Bus Circuit. Therefore, the power liftgate control
module can generate and store its own Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTC). The vehicles Body Control
Module (BCM) receives and supplies messages to the
power liftgate control module via the PCI bus circuit.
A diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB IIItor equiv-
alent, is used to read and troubleshoot these DTCs.
Refer to the Body Diagnostic Manual for a complete
list of diagnostic routines.
For additional information, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER DOORS - OPERATION). Refer to the
appropriate wiring information for complete circuit
schematic or connector pin-out information.
WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SER-
VICE OF THE POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM OR COM-
PONENTS.
OPERATION
With the push of a power liftgate open/close com-
mand switch (key fob or overhead console mounted) a
signal is sent out on the Programmable Communica-
tion Interface (PCI) Data Bus circuit. This signal is
detected at the Body Control Module (BCM). The
BCM then sends a signal out on the PCI Data Bus
circuit to the power liftgate control module. The
power liftgate control module then signals the power
liftgate motor to start an open or close cycle, depend-
ing on what position the liftgate is in.
During a liftgate open or close cycle, if the power
liftgate module detects sufficient resistance to liftgate
travel, such as an obstruction in the path of the lift-
gate, the power liftgate control module will immedi-
ately stop the liftgate movement and reverse travel
to the full open or closed position. The ability for the
power liftgate module to detect resistance to liftgate
