OPERATION
OPERATION - COOLING SYSTEM
The engine cooling systems primary purpose is to
maintain engine temperature in a range that will
provide satisfactory engine performance and emission
levels under all expected driving conditions. It also
provides hot water (coolant) for heater performance
and cooling for automatic transmission oil. It does
this by transferring heat from engine metal to cool-
ant, moving this heated coolant to the radiator, and
then transferring this heat to the ambient air.
²When engine is cold: thermostat is closed, cool-
ing system has no flow through the radiator. The
coolant bypass flows through the engine only.
²When engine is warm: thermostat is open, cool-
ing system has bypass flow and coolant flow through
radiator.
Coolant flow circuits for the 2.4L and 3.3/3.8L
engines are shown in (Fig. 2).
OPERATION - HOSE CLAMPS
The spring type hose clamp applies constant ten-
sion on a hose connection. To remove a spring type
hose clamp, use Special Tool 6094 or equivalent, con-
stant tension clamp pliers (Fig. 3) to compress the
hose clamp.

²Key-In Ignition
²Engine Temperature Critical
²Turn Signals ON
²Dome Lamp ON
²Low Oil Pressure
²High Speed Warning

HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
The chime will sound, acting as a warning to the
driver that the vehicle speed has exceeded 120 3
Kp/h (75 2 mph).
Refer to the proper body diagnostic information
diagnosis and testing with a scan tool.
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
The Park Assist System is an electronic parking
aid that alerts the driver to obstacles which are
located immediately behind the vehicle. Objects are
sensed using ultrasonic sound waves. When an object
is detected, the system will give the driver visual and
audible warnings. The system is customer program-
mable through the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) but will be enabled from the factory
as a default.
The major components of the park assist system
are:²Park Assist Module- supplies voltage to the
object detection sensors and park assist display. It
triggers the sensors, analyzes the echo delay times
and calculates obstacle distances. It sends display
information to the park assist display, performs sys-
tem diagnostics, and communicates via the Program-
mable Communication Interface (PCI) date bus
network.
²Park Assist Sensors- there are four sensors
located in the rear bumper that generate ultrasonic
pulses when triggered by the park assist module. The
sensors signal the park assist module when reflected
ultrasonic pulses are received.
²Park Assist Display- there are sixteen Light
Emitting Diode (LED) indicators which provide indi-
cation of relative distance to obstacles. When the sys-
tem is engaged and no obstacles are detected, the
two outermost yellow LED's are lit at reduced bright-
ness to show the system is working. As the distance
to a detected obstacle decreases, more yellow LED's
towards the center of the display illuminate.
For diagnosis and testing of the park assist sys-
tem, use a scan tool and the appropriate body diag-
nostic information.
OPERATION
Refer to the proper Body Diagnostic Procedures
manual for complete chime/buzzer operation and con-
ditions for operation.
HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
When the vehicle speed sensor sees 120 3 Km/h
(75 2 mph), it sends a PCI data bus message to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM then turns on
the chime to let the driver know that the vehicle has
reached a speed greater than 120 3 Km/h (75 2
mph). This audible message will continue until the
vehicle is slowed below the predetermined speed.
