2005 CHRYSLER VOYAGER ail

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 electric backlight (EBL) 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 sys-
tem is turned on. The integrated power module (IPM)
contains the EBL system control circuitry.
NOTE: The rear window defogger turns off automat-
ically after approximately 10 minutes of initial oper-
ation. Each following activation cycle of the
defogger system will last approximately five min-
utes.
The EBL system will be automatically turned off
after a programmed time interval of about ten min-
utes. After the initial time interval has expired, if the
defogger switch is turned on again during the same
ignition cycle, the defogger system will automatically
turn off after about five minutes.
The EBL 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 defogger
switch a second time.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
ELECTRIC BACKLIGHT (EBL) SYSTEM
NOTE: Illumination of the defogger switch indicator
lamp means that there is electrical current available
at the output of the rear window defogger logic cir-
cuitry, but does not confirm that the electrical cur-
rent is reaching the rear glass heating grid lines.
NOTE: For circuit descriptions and diagrams of the
rear window defogger system, refer to 8W - WIRING
DIAGRAM INFORMATION.
Operation of the electrical backlight (EBL) system
can be confirmed by the following:(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. Set
the defogger switch in the On position. The rear win-
dow defogger operation can be checked by feeling the
rear window glass. A distinct difference in tempera-
ture between the grid lines and the adjacent clear
glass can be detected within three to four minutes of
operation.
(2) If a temperature difference is not detected, use
a 12-volt DC voltmeter and contact the rear glass
heating grid terminal B with the negative lead, and
terminal A with the positive lead (Fig. 2). The volt-
meter should read battery voltage. If the voltmeter
does not read battery voltage, check the following:
²Confirm that the ignition switch is in the On
position.
²Make sure that the rear glass heating grid feed
wire and ground wire are connected to the terminals.
Confirm that the ground wire has continuity to
ground.
²Check that fuse 13 (40 amp) in the integrated
power module (IPM) is OK. The fuse must be tight in
it's receptacle and all electrical connections must be
secure.
(3) When the above steps have been completed and
the rear glass heating grid is still inoperative, one or
more of the following is faulty. It may be necessary to
connect a DRBIIItscan tool to perform further diag-
nostics. 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 (EBL) relay in the IPM.
²Rear window defogger (EBL) relay control circu-
ity 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 the power feed or ground wire
not connected, for the entire heating grid to be inop-
erative).
(4) If the system operation has been verified but
defogger switch LED indicator does not illuminate,
replace the A/C-heater control.

WARNING: Materials contained in the Repair Kit
(Part Number 04549275) may cause skin or eye irri-
tation. The kit contains epoxy resin and amine type
hardener, which are harmful if swallowed. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes. For skin contact,
wash the affected areas with soap and water. For
contact with the eyes, flush with plenty of water. Do
not take internally. If taken internally, induce vomit-
ing and call a physician immediately. Use with ade-
quate ventilation. Do not use near fire or flame.
Contains flammable solvents. Keep out of the reach
of children. Failure to follow the warnings could
result in possible personal injury or death.
Repair of the rear glass heating grid lines, bus
bars or terminals can be accomplished using the
MopartRear Window Defogger Repair Kit (Part
Number 04549275) or equivalent.
(1) Mask the repair area with masking tape so
that the conductive epoxy can be applied neatly (Fig.
6). Extend the epoxy application onto the grid line or
the bus bar on each side of the break.
(2) Follow the instructions in the repair kit for
preparing the damaged area.
(3) Remove the package separator clamp and mix
the two conductive epoxy components thoroughly
within the packaging. Fold the package in half and
cut the center corner to dispense the epoxy.
(4) For grid line repairs, mask the area to be
repaired with masking tape or use a template.
(5) Apply the epoxy through the slit in the mask-
ing tape or template. Overlap both ends of the break
by at least 19 millimeters (0.75 inch).
(6) For a terminal replacement, mask the adjacent
areas so the epoxy can be extended onto the adjacent
grid line as well as the bus bar. Apply a thin layer of
epoxy to the area where the terminal was fastened
and onto the adjacent grid line.(7) Apply a thin layer of conductive epoxy to the
terminal and place it in the proper location on the
bus bar. To prevent the terminal from moving while
the epoxy is curing, it must be wedged or clamped.
(8) Carefully remove the masking tape or tem-
plate.
CAUTION: Do not allow the glass surface to exceed
204É C (400É F) when using a heat gun, or the glass
may fracture.
(9) Allow the epoxy to cure 24 hours at room tem-
perature, or carefully use a heat gun for fifteen min-
utes. When using a heat gun, hold it approximately
25.4 centimeters (10 inches) from the repair and do
not allow the glass surface to exceed 204É C (400É F).
NOTE: Do not attach the wire harness connectors
to the terminals until the curing process is com-
plete.
(10) After the conductive epoxy is properly cured,
remove the wedge or clamp from the terminal.
(11) Connect the wire harness leads to the grid
terminals and verify EBL operation.

HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles with the heated seat option can be visu-
ally identified by the two separate heated seat
switches located in the instrument panel center
stack, just above the radio (Fig. 1). The heated seat
system allows the front seat driver and passenger to
select from two different levels of supplemental elec-
trical seat heating (HI/LO), or no seat heating to suit
their individual comfort requirements. The heated
seat system for this vehicle includes the following
major components:
²Heated Seat Elements- Four heated seat ele-
ments are used per vehicle, two for each front seat.
One heated seat element is integral to each front
seat trim cover, one in the seat back and one in the
seat bottom (cushion). Service replacement heating
elements are available, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED SEATS/HEATED SEAT ELEMENT -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Heated Seat Modules- Two heated seat mod-
ules are used per vehicle. One module is mounted to
each of the seat cushion pans, located under the for-
ward edge of each front seat. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/
MEMORY HEATED SEAT/MIRROR MODULE -
DESCRIPTION) for additional information.
²Heated Seat Sensors- Two heated seat sen-
sors are used per vehicle, one for each front seat. The
heated seat sensors are integral to each of the heated
seat bottoms (cushions).
²Heated Seat Switch- Two heated seat
switches are used per vehicle, one for the driver and
one for the passenger side front seats. The switches
are mounted in the instrument panel center stack.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED SEATS/
DRIVER HEATED SEAT SWITCH - DESCRIPTION)
for additional information.
Fig. 1 HEATED SEAT SWITCH LOCATIONS
1 - HEATED SEAT SWITCHES
RSHEATED SEAT SYSTEM8G-7

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, hard wire
inputs to its respective Heated Seat Module (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 Low heat position
set point is about 36É C (97É F), and the High heat
position set point is about 41É C (105É F).

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 attached to 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 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED
SEATS/HEATED SEAT ELEMENT - REMOVAL).
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 Negative Temperature Coeffi-
cient (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 signal to one side of each sensor, and monitors
the voltage drop through the sensor on a return cir-
cuit. 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. Refer to the appro-
priate wiring information for complete circuit sche-
matic or connector pin-out information.
In order to access and test the heated seat ele-
ments it will be necessary to remove the appropriate
front seat retaining bolts and lay the seat rearward,
up against one of the rear seats. It is not necessary
to disconnect the seat electrical connectors, just use
care not to damage the attached wire harnesses
while testing.
NOTE: When checking heated seat elements for
continuity, be certain to move the heating element
being checked. Moving the element, such as sitting
in the seat will eliminate the possibility of an inter-
mittent open in the element which would only be
evident if the element was in a certain position.
Failure to check the element in various positions
could result in an incomplete test.
SEAT CUSHION ELEMENT
(1) From under the vehicle, remove the appropri-
ate seats four retaining nuts.
(2) From inside the vehicle, pull the seat up, off
the mounting studs and lay it back, up against one of
the rear seats.
(3) Locate the heated seat module, attached to the
bottom of the seat cushion pan. Remove the heated
seat module from the seat cushion pan. Do not dis-
connect the electrical connectors at this time.
(4) Locate and disconnect the green 4-way electri-
cal connector, connected to the heated seat module.
(5) Check for continuity between the two outboard
circuit cavities of the wire harness connector (Pins
