2005 CHRYSLER CARAVAN wheel

trical connector on the vehicle wiring harness. The
power source for the CAB is through the ignition
switch in the RUN or ON position. The CAB is on
the PCI bus.
OPERATION
The primary functions of the controller antilock
brake (CAB) are to:
²Monitor the antilock brake system for proper
operation.
²Detect wheel locking or wheel slipping tenden-
cies by monitoring the speed of all four wheels of the
vehicle.
²Control fluid modulation to the wheel brakes
while the system is in an ABS mode.
²Store diagnostic information.
²Provide communication to the DRBIIItscan tool
while in diagnostic mode.
²Illuminate the amber ABS warning indicator
lamp.
²(With traction control only) Illuminate the TRAC
ON lamp in the message center on the instrument
panel when a traction control event occurs.
²(with traction control only) Illuminate the TRAC
OFF lamp when the amber ABS warning indicator
lamp illuminates.
The CAB constantly monitors the antilock brake
system for proper operation. If the CAB detects a
fault, it will turn on the amber ABS warning indica-
tor lamp and disable the antilock braking system.
The normal base braking system will remain opera-
tional.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with traction con-
trol, the TRAC OFF lamp will illuminate anytime the
amber ABS warning indicator lamp illuminates.The CAB continuously monitors the speed of each
wheel through the signals generated by the wheel
speed sensors to determine if any wheel is beginning
to lock. When a wheel locking tendency is detected,
the CAB commands the CAB command coils to actu-
ate. The coils then open and close the valves in the
HCU that modulate brake fluid pressure in some or
all of the hydraulic circuits. The CAB continues to
control pressure in individual hydraulic circuits until
a locking tendency is no longer present.
The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program that
monitors the antilock brake system for system faults.
When a fault is detected, the amber ABS warning
indicator lamp is turned on and the fault diagnostic
trouble code (DTC) is then stored in a diagnostic pro-
gram memory. A latched fault will disable certain
system functionality for the current ignition cycle. An
unlatched fault will disable certain system function-
ality until the fault condition disappears. These
DTC's will remain in the CAB memory even after the
ignition has been turned off. The DTC's can be read
and cleared from the CAB memory by a technician
using the DRBIIItscan tool. If not cleared with a
DRBIIItscan tool, the fault occurrence and DTC will
be automatically cleared from the CAB memory after
the identical fault has not been seen during the next
3,500 miles. Drive-off may be required for the amber
ABS warning indicator lamp to go out on the next
ignition cycle.

INSTALLATION
The PCM engine control strategy prevents reduced
idle speeds until after the engine operates for 320 km
(200 miles). If the PCM is replaced after 320 km (200
miles) of usage, update the mileage and vehicle iden-
tification number (VIN) in the new PCM. Use the
DRBIIItscan tool to change the millage and VIN in
the PCM. If this step is not done a diagnostic trouble
code (DTC) may be set and SKIM must be done or
car will not start if it is a SKIM equipped car. If a
SKIM car you must do a secret key transfer also.
Refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diagnostic Man-
ual and the DRBIIItscan tool.
(1) Install PCM module to the mounting bracket.
(2) Install electrical connectors and lock.
(3) Install the splash shield.
(4) Lower vehicle.
(5) Connect the negative battery cable.
(6) Using DRBIIItscan tool, program mileage and
vehicle identification number (VIN) into PCM. Refer
to the DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate Power-
train Diagnostic Manual.

STARTING
DESCRIPTION
The starting system consists of:
²Starter relay
²Starter motor (including an integral starter sole-
noid)
Other components to be considered as part of start-
ing system are:
²Battery
²Battery cables
²Ignition switch and key lock cylinder
²Clutch pedal position switch (manual transmis-
sion)
²Park/neutral position switch (automatic trans-
mission)
²Wire harnesses and connections.
The Battery, Starting, and Charging systems oper-
ate in conjunction with one another, and must be
tested as a complete system. For correct operation of
starting/charging systems, all components used in
these 3 systems must perform within specifications.
When attempting to diagnose any of these systems, it
is important that you keep their interdependency in
mind.
The diagnostic procedures used in each of these
groups include the most basic conventional diagnostic
methods, to the more sophisticated On-Board Diag-
nostics (OBD) built into the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM). Use of an induction-type milliampere
ammeter, volt/ohmmeter, battery charger, carbon pile
rheostat (load tester), and 12-volt test lamp may be
required.
OPERATION
These components form two separate circuits. A
high amperage circuit that feeds the starter motor up
to 300+ amps, and a control circuit that operates on
less than 20 amps.
The PCM controls a double start over-ride safety
that does not allow the starter to be engaged if the
engine is already running.

INSPECTION
Before removing any unit from the starting system
for repair or diagnosis, perform the following inspec-
tions:
²Battery- Visually inspect the battery for indi-
cations of physical damage and loose or corroded
cable connections. Determine the state-of-charge and
cranking capacity of the battery. Charge or replace

the battery, if required. Refer to the Battery section
for more information.
²Ignition Switch- Visually inspect the ignition
switch for indications of physical damage and loose
or corroded wire harness connections.
²Transmission Range Sensor or Park/Neu-
tral Switch- Visually inspect the transmission
range sensor for indications of physical damage and
loose or corroded wire harness connections.
²Starter Relay- Visually inspect the starter
relay for indications of physical damage and loose or
corroded wire harness connections.
²Starter Motor- Visually inspect the starter
motor for indications of physical damage and loose or
corroded wire harness connections.²Starter Solenoid- Visually inspect the starter
solenoid for indications of physical damage and loose
or corroded wire harness connections.
²Wiring- Visually inspect the wire harness for
damage. Repair or replace any faulty wiring, as
required. Check for loose or corroded wire harness
connections at main engine ground and remote jump
post.
²Power Distribution Center (PDC)- Visually
inspect the B+ connections at the PDC for physical
damage and loose or corroded harness connections.
