2005 CHRYSLER VOYAGER Electronic control modules

Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat sys-
tem components to each other through the electrical
system of the vehicle. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system
and to the heated seat system components through
the use of a combination of soldered splices and
splice block connectors. Refer to the appropriate wir-
ing information for complete circuit schematic or con-
nector pin-out information.
OPERATION
The heated seat system components operate on
battery current received through a fuse in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) on a fused ignition
switch output (run) circuit from the Body Control
Module (BCM). The system will only operate when
the ignition switch is in the On position. The heated
seat system will be turned Off automatically when-
ever the ignition switch is turned to any position
except On. Also, the heated seat system will not oper-
ate when the surface temperature of the seat cushion
cover at either heated seat sensor is above the
designed temperature set points of the system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING

HEATED SEAT SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center bezel (Fig. 2). The two three-
position rocker-type switches, one switch for each
front seat, are incorporated into one large switch
assembly that also includes the hazard, rear window
wiper and washer switches. Each heated seat switch
provides a resistor multiplexed signal to its respec-
tive Heated Seat Module (HSM) through separate
hard wired circuits. Each switch has an Off, Low,
and High position so that both the driver and the
front seat passenger can select a preferred seat heat-
ing mode. Each switch has two Light-Emitting
Diodes (LED) which light to indicate that the heater
for the seat is turned on.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch assembly must be replaced.

The compass unit will also compensate for magne-
tism the vehicle may acquire during normal use.
However, avoid placing anything magnetic directly on
the roof of the vehicle. Magnetic mounts for an
antenna, a repair order hat, or a funeral procession
flag can exceed the compensating ability of the com-
pass unit if placed on the roof panel. The use of mag-
netic tools on the fasteners that hold the overhead
console assembly to the roof header can also affect
compass operation. If the compass operation is
erratic and roof magnetization is suspected (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS DEMAGNETIZ-
ING).
DESCRIPTION - TEMPERATURE
All overhead consoles include temperature informa-
tion. The temperature displays the outside ambient
temperature in whole degrees. The temperature dis-
play can be toggled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by
selecting the desired U.S./Metric option from the cus-
tomer programmable features. The displayed temper-
ature is not an instant reading of conditions, but an
average temperature. It may take the temperature
display several minutes to respond to a major tem-
perature change, such as driving out of a heated
garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion, the last displayed temperature reading stays in
the electronic control modules (CMTC, EVIC) mem-
ory. When the ignition switch is turned to the On
position again, the electronic module will display the
memory temperature for one minute; then update the
display to the current average temperature reading
within five minutes.
The temperature function is supported by an ambi-
ent temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted near
the front and center of the vehicle, and is hard wired
to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
sends temperature status messages to the module
over the Programmable Communication Interface
(PCI) data bus circuit.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
OVERHEAD CONSOLE
Any diagnosis of the overhead console should
begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiagnostic
tool. For information on the use of the DRB
IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Proce-
dures information.If the problem with the overhead console is an
inaccurate or dashed (- -) display, refer to SELF-DI-
AGNOSTIC TEST. If the problem with the overhead
console is incorrect Vacuum Fluorescent Display
(VFD) dimming levels, use a DRB IIItscan tool and
the proper diagnostic procedures information to test
for the correct dimming message inputs being
received from the Body Control Module (BCM) or
Front Control Module (FCM) over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus circuit. If
the problem is a no-display condition, use the follow-
ing procedures.
Inspect the related wiring harness connectors for
broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the integrated
power module. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair

in the integrated power module. If OK, go to Step 3.
If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the
fused B(+) fuse in the integrated power module as
required.
(3) Check the fused ignition switch output (run/
start) fuse in the integrated power module. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or
component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run/start) fuse in the integrated power mod-
ule. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open
fused ignition switch output (run/start) circuit to the
ignition switch as required.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the overhead console. Check for continuity
between the ground circuit cavity of the roof wire
harness connector for the electronics module and a
good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to
Step 6. If not OK, repair the open ground circuit as
required.
(6) Connect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
roof wire harness connector for the electronics mod-
ule. If OK, go to Step 7. If not OK, repair the open
fused B(+) circuit to the fused B(+) fuse in the inte-
grated power module as required.
(7) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run/start) circuit cavity of the roof wire har-
ness connector for the electronics module. If OK,
refer to SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If not OK, repair
the open fused ignition switch output (run/start) cir-
cuit to the fuse in the integrated power module as
required.

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.

travel is accomplished by hall effect sensors, drive
motor speed and pinch sensors (tape switches).
Anytime the liftgate is opened or closed using the
power liftgate system the power liftgate control mod-
ule learns from the cycle. If a replacement power lift-
gate component is installed or a liftgate adjustment
is made, the module will relearn the effort and/or
time required to open or close the liftgate. This learn
cycle can be performed with a DRB IIIt, or equiva-
lent scan tool, or with a complete cycle of the liftgate,
using any one of the command switches. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/POWER DOORS - STANDARD PRO-
CEDURE) for detailed instructions.
The power liftgate system is designed with a num-
ber of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are neces-
sary for safety and / or feasibility of the power
liftgate system. The power liftgate system inhibitors
are:
²The Power Liftgate may not operate in extreme
temperatures. These extreme temperatures will be
approximately less than -12É F (-24.4É C) or greater
than 143É F (61.6É C). A chime/thermister assembly
in the rear light bar assembly monitors the outside
temperature.
²The vehicle transmission must be in Park or
Neutral for the power liftgate to start a cycle.
²If multiple obstacles are detected during the
same power open or close cycle, the liftgate goes into
manual operation.
²If severe problems occur, Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTC) are stored in the power liftgate control
module.
POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM CAUTIONS AND
WARNINGS
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE CABLE BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM SERVICE.
WARNING: THERE IS A SMALL AREA ON BOTH
SIDES OF THE LOWER POWER LIFTGATE WHICH
IS NOT PROTECTED BY PINCH SENSORS.
EXTREME CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO PREVENT
OBJECTS FROM ENTERING THIS AREA ONCE THELIFTGATE REACHES THE SECONDARY LATCH
CONTACT (APPROXIMATELY 1/2 INCH BEFORE
FULLY CLOSED).
WARNING: NEVER ATTEMPT TO ENTER OR EXIT
THE VEHICLE WITH THE LIFTGATE IN MOTION.
YOU COULD DAMAGE THE POWER LIFTGATE SYS-
TEM AND/OR COMPONENTS AND/OR CAUSE PER-
SONAL INJURY.
WARNING: NEVER STICK OBJECTS IN THE POWER
LIFTGATE WHEN CINCHING CLOSED. YOU COULD
DAMAGE THE VEHICLE, POWER LIFTGATE SYS-
TEM COMPONENTS AND/OR CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM
The power liftgate system contains many compo-
nents and modules. In order to obtain conclusive
testing the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the power liftgate system must be checked.
The power liftgate system can be diagnosed with
an appropriate scan tool, such as the DRB IIItor
equivalent. The DRB IIItcan be used to observe var-
ious switch statuses throughout the power liftgate
system to help diagnose an inoperative switch or
component. The DRB IIItcan also be used to actuate
various components throughout the power liftgate
system to help diagnose an inoperative component.
Before any testing of the power liftgate system is
attempted, the battery should be fully charged, all
built-in power liftgate system inhibitors read and
understood, and all wire harness and ground connec-
tions inspected around the affected areas on the vehi-
cle.
The following are quick reference diagnostic tables
to help when diagnosing and testing the power lift-
gate system.

MEMORY SYSTEM
The memory system is able to store and recall the
driver side power seat positions (including the power
recliner position), power adjustable pedal positions
and the driver outside mirror position for two driv-
ers. On vehicles equipped with a factory radio, the
memory system is also able to store and recall radio
station presets for two drivers. The memory system
also will store and recall the last station listened to
for each driver, even if it is not one of the preset sta-
tions.
The memory system will automatically return to
its preset settings when the corresponding numbered
button of the memory switch is depressed, or when
the doors are unlocked using the corresponding
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. A customer
programmable feature of the memory system allows
the RKE recall of memory features to be disabled, if
desired. This programmable feature is internal in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) mod-
ule, which is located in the overhead console.
A Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM) is used to
control and integrate the many electronic functions
and features included in the memory seat and mirror
systems.
The memory system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Memory Seat Mirror Module (MSMM)
²Memory set switch
²Position potentiometers on the driver outside
side view mirror
²Position potentiometers on the power adjustable
pedal motor²Position potentiometers on the driver side power
seat track and power seat recliner motors
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Radio receiver (if PCI data bus capable)
Certain functions of the memory system rely upon
resources shared with other electronic modules in the
vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. Initial diagnosis of
these electronic modules or the PCI data bus network
requires the use of a DRBIIItor equivalent scan tool
and the proper Diagnostic Procedures information. If
this method does not prove conclusive, the proper
wiring schematics and the service manual diagnostic
information are required.

OPERATION
POWER SEAT SYSTEM
The power seat system receives battery current
through fuse #22 in the Integrated Power Module
(IPM) and a circuit breaker under the front seats,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
When a power seat switch control knob or knobs
are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the appropri-
ate power seat track adjuster motor. The selected
adjuster motor operates to move the seat track
through its drive unit in the selected direction until
the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the
seat track 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 seat track has reached its travel
limit. The power seat adjuster motor each contain a
