DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
HORN
HORN
(1) Disconnect wire connector at horn.
(2) Using a voltmeter, connect one lead to ground
terminal and the other lead to the positive wire ter-
minal (Fig. 1).
(3) Depress the horn switch, battery voltage
should be present.
(4) If no voltage, refer toHORNS WILL NOT
SOUND. If voltage is OK, go to step Step 5.
(5) Using ohmmeter, test ground wire for continu-
ity to ground.
(6) If no ground repair as necessary.
(7) If wires test OK and horn does not sound,
replace horn.
HORNS SOUND CONTINUOUSLY
CAUTION: Continuous sounding of horns may
cause relay to fail.
The horn switch (membrane) sometimes can be the
cause without the switch being depressed.(1) Remove the horn relay from the intelligent
power module.
(2)
Using a continuity tester, test continuity from the
X3 cavity of the horn relay to ground. 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.
(a)If continuity is detected, proceed to step Step 3.
(b) If NO continuity, replace the horn relay.
(3) Remove the airbag trim cover from the steering
wheel and disengage horn connector.
(4) Install horn relay into Integrated Power Mod-
ule (IPM).
(a)
If horn does not sound, replace airbag trim
cover.
(b) If horn sounds, repair grounded X3 circuit
from IPM to clockspring in the steering column.
HORNS WILL NOT SOUND
Check horn fuse#8intheIPM. If fuse is blown,
check for a shorted switch in the airbag module. and
refer to FUSE BLOWN section. If fuse is OK, refer to
FUSE OK section.
FUSE BLOWN
(1) Verify condition of battery terminals and volt-
age, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM

HORN SYSTEM (Continued)

- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If battery connec-
tions and battery charge is OK proceed to Step 2.
(2) Using a voltmeter, test for battery voltage at
both sides of horn fuse 7. If voltage is OK, on both
sides of fuse, proceed to Fuse OK. If voltage is OK,
on one side of fuse, the fuse is blown, proceed to Step
3.
(3) Using a suitable ammeter in place of the fuse,
test amperage draw of the horn circuit. If amperage
draw is greater than 20 amps without the horn
switch depressed, a grounded circuit exists between
the fuse and the horn relay. Proceed to Step 4. If
amperage draw is greater than 20 amps with the
horn switch depressed, a grounded circuit exists
between the horn relay and the horn. Proceed to step
Step 5.
(4) Remove the horn relay from the IPM. If the
amperage draw drops to 0 amps, the horn switch or
circuit is shorted. If the amperage draw does not
drop to 0 amps, repair short at the IPM.
(5) Disengage a wire connector from one of the
horns. If amperage drops and the connected horn
sounds, replace the faulty horn. If amperage does not
drop with both horns disconnected and the horn
switch depressed, proceed to Step 6.
(6) Using a continuity tester, with the horns dis-
connected test continuity of the X2 cavity of the horn
relay to ground. If continuity is detected, the circuit
is grounded between the Junction Block and the
horns. Locate and repair pinched harness.
FUSE OK
(1) Remove the horn relay from the intelligent
power module.
(2) Using a continuity tester, Depress horn switch
and test continuity from the X3 cavity of the horn
relay to ground.
(a) If continuity is detected, proceed to Step 3.
(b) If NO continuity, proceed to Step 4.
(3) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across the
fuse F62 cavity and the X2 cavity of the horn relay in
the Junction Block.
(a) If the horn sounds, replace the horn relay.
(b) If the horn does not sound, proceed to Step 4.
(4) Remove airbag trim cover from steering wheel.
Refer to ELECTRICAL, RESTRAINTS.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
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.
²Lift Gate Ajar
²Low Fuel Level
²Low Windshield Washer Fluid Level
²Cruise
²Battery Voltage
²Fasten Seat Belt
²Door Ajar
²Coolant Temperature

²Autostick
Export Only- uses a message center that displays
the following telltales:
²Turns Signals
²High Beam
²Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM)²Glow Plug (Export Only)
²Supplemental Cabin Heater (Export Only)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/SENSOR - 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.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SELF-
DIAGNOSTICS
The instrument clusters are equipped with a self
diagnostic test feature to help identify electronic
problems. Prior to any test, perform the Self-Diag-
nostic Test. The self diagnostic system displays
instrument cluster stored fault codes in the odometer
display, sweeps the gauges to the calibration points,
and bulb checks the warning indicators. When the
key is in the ON position with the engine not run-
ning, the MIL will remain illuminated for regulatory
purposes.
To activate the Self-Diagnostic program:
(1) With the ignition switch in the OFF position,
depress the TRIP ODOMETER RESET button.
(2) Continue to hold the TRIP ODOMETER
RESET button untilSofand a number (software ver-
sion number (i.e.Sof 3.2) appears in the odometer
window then release the button. If a fault code is
present, the cluster will display it in the odometer
display. When all fault codes have been displayed,
the cluster will displayªendºin the odometer dis-
play. Refer to the INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DTC'S

POWER SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system option allows the driver
and front seat passenger to electrically adjust their
seating positions for optimum control and comfort.
The driver side power front seat can be adjusted in
eight different directions: up, down, front up, front
down, rear up, rear down, forward, rearward and
recliner forward and rearward. The passenger side
power front seat can be adjusted in four different
directions: forward, rearward and recliner forward
and rearward.
The power seat system receives battery current
through a 40 amp fuse in the Integrated Power Mod-
ule (IPM) and a 30 amp circuit breaker under the
seat so that the power seats remain operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
WARNING: SOME VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH
SEATBACK MOUNTED AIRBAGS (Fig. 1). 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 COULDRESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
The eight-way driver side power seat is also avail-
able with the heated seat and/or memory seat sys-
tem. The memory seat system automatically
positions the power seat for two different drivers.

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.
MEMORY SYSTEM
The Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) receives
battery current through fuse #22 in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) and the power seat system cir-
cuit breaker, located under the driver side front seat
near the rear edge of the seat cushion pan. The mem-
ory system does not operate with the Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse removed. The MSMM will drive a
maximum of 2 motors at a time in a given direction.
If conflicting directions are requested, the priority for
response will be approximately as follows:
²Seat Track Rearward or Forward
²Seat Front Down or Up
²Seat Rear Down or Up
²Recliner Rearward or Forward
The inputs from these switches to the MSMM is a
current limited battery source fed by the MSMM.
This protects the MSMM printed circuit board traces
from acting as fuses. All of these switch contact
inputs to the MSMM are normally closed to ground,
except when actuated.
For diagnosis of the MSMM, the Programmable
Communication Interface (PCI) data bus, or the other
electronic modules on the PCI data bus that provide
inputs and outputs for the memory system, the use of
a DRBIIItor equivalent scan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures information is recommended.
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
serves as the user interface for the memory system.
It displays memory system status messages and pro-
vides the user with the means for enabling and dis-
abling the many customer programmable features
available on the vehicle, including those for the mem-
ory system.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information on the
EVIC.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power seat
system. However, if the vehicle is also equipped with
the optional memory system, these tests may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the driver side
power seat. In order to obtain conclusive testing ofthe driver side power seat with the memory system
option, 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,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER SEATS - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING).
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 either power seat is completely inoperable,
check the power seat circuit breaker, located under
the trailing edge of the driver side power seat. If the
power seat circuit breaker is OK, continue to the
next step.
(2) Check for proper battery and ground connec-
tions at the power seat switch and/or memory seat
module. Repair any wiring as necessary.
(3) Check the power seat system wire harness con-
nections and pins to ensure proper circuit continuity
and ground paths.
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 driver side power seat with the memory
system option requires the use of a DRBIIItor
equivalent scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures information. The DRBIIItscan tool can pro-
vide confirmation that the PCI data bus is functional,
that all of the electronic modules are sending and
receiving 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 outputs to perform its driver side power seat
functions.
(1) If the driver power seat exhibits an interrupted
or jerky motion, ensure the wire harness is connected
correctly. To verify the concern, obtain a DRB IIItor
equivalent scan 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
