MAINTENANCE - WITH ASSYST MAINTENANCE
COMPUTER
ASSYST provides information on the best possible
timing for maintenance work.
NOTE: The engine manufacturer strongly recom-
mends the use of synthetic engine oils, such as
TMobil 1 SAE 0W-40.
When the next maintenance service is due, this
will be indicated in the multi-function display with
the wrench icon symbol displayed in km/miles or
days.
²One wrench icon showing indicates Oil Service
is necessary.
²Two wrench icons showing indicates Mainte-
nance Service is necessary ± displayed in km/miles or
days.
If the display shows the number of days, a clock
symbol will also appear in the multi-function display.
You should have the maintenance performed
within the stated period/distance.
The service indicator should be reset after an oil
service and/or maintenance service has been per-
formed.
REGULAR CHECK-UPS
To maintain the safe operation of the vehicle, it is
recommended that the following tasks be performed
on a regular basis (i.e. weekly or whenever the vehi-
cle is refueled). Check:
²Engine oil level
²Brake system, clutch mechanism ± fluid level
²Battery ± acid level
²Windshield washer system and headlamp clean-
ing system ± fluid level
²Mechanical assemblies (e. g. engine, transmis-
sion, etc.) ± check for leaks
²Condition of tires and tires pressures
²All exterior lights
SPECIAL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
If bodies built by manufacturers other than
DaimlerChrysler Corporation are fitted to the vehi-
cle, the maintenance requirements and lubrication
intervals specified by the body manufacturer must be
adhered to, in addition to all standard maintenance
requirements.
Brake Fluid
Only use brake fluids approved by the manufac-
turer (DOT 4 plus).
Coolant
Corrosion inhibitor/antifreeze concentration in the
coolant should be checked before the onset of winter
(once year in countries with high prevailing temper-
atures).Replace the coolant every five years or 100,000
miles.
Dust Filter for Heating/Ventilation Replace-
ment
The dust filter and the tailgate interior filter are to
be renewed during routine maintenance service. If
operating conditions are dusty, these filters should be
renewed more frequently.
ENGINE OIL CHANGE AND FILTER REPLACEMENT
At the minimum, change the engine oil and oil fil-
ter once a year ± even if the vehicle mileage per year
is extremely low. For standard oil service schedules
refer to the chapter oil service and maintenance ser-
vice.
Once a Year
Select the viscosity of the engine oil (SAE classes)
according to the outside air temperature.
Only use engine oil approved by DaimlerChrysler
Corporation if following the ASSYST system guide-
lines.
If the fuel used has a sulphur content exceeding
0.05% by weight, the service intervals should be split
in half.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - OPEN-CIRCUIT
VOLTAGE TEST
A battery open-circuit voltage (no load) test will
show the approximate state-of-charge of a battery.
This test can be used in place of the hydrometer test
when a hydrometer is not available, or for mainte-
nance-free batteries with non-removable cell caps.
Before proceeding with this test, completely charge
the battery (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY
SYSTEM/BATTERY - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(1) Before measuring the open-circuit voltage, the
surface charge must be removed from the battery.
Turn on the headlamps for fifteen seconds, then
allow up to five minutes for the battery voltage to
stabilize.
(2) Disconnect and isolate both battery cables, neg-
ative cable first.
(3) Using a voltmeter connected to the battery
posts (see the instructions provided by the manufac-
turer of the voltmeter), measure the open-circuit volt-
age (Fig. 5).
See the Open-Circuit Voltage Table. This voltage
reading will indicate the battery state-of-charge, but
will not reveal its cranking capacity. If a battery has
an open-circuit voltage reading of 12.4 volts or
greater, it may be load tested to reveal its cranking
capacity (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYS-
TEM/BATTERY - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGE TABLE
Open Circuit Voltage Charge Percentage
11.7 volts or less 0%
12.0 volts 25%
12.2 volts 50%
12.4 volts 75%
12.6 volts or more 100%
STANDARD PROCEDURE - IGNITION-OFF
DRAW TEST
The term Ignition-Off Draw (IOD) identifies a nor-
mal condition where power is being drained from the
battery with the ignition switch in the Off position. A
normal vehicle electrical system will draw from five
to thirty-five milliamperes (0.005 to 0.035 ampere)
with the ignition switch in the Off position, and all
non-ignition controlled circuits in proper working
order. Up to thirty-five milliamperes are needed to
enable the memory functions for the Powertrain Con-
trol Module (PCM), digital clock, electronically tuned
radio, and other modules which may vary with the
vehicle equipment.
A vehicle that has not been operated for approxi-
mately twenty days, may discharge the battery to an
inadequate level. When a vehicle will not be used for
twenty days or more (stored), remove the IOD fuse
from the fuseblock. This will reduce battery discharg-
ing.
Excessive IOD can be caused by:
²Electrical items left on.
²Faulty or improperly adjusted switches.
²Faulty or shorted electronic modules and compo-
nents.
²An internally shorted generator.
²Intermittent shorts in the wiring.
If the IOD is over thirty-five milliamperes, the
problem must be found and corrected before replac-
ing a battery. In most cases, the battery can be
charged and returned to service after the excessive
IOD condition has been corrected.
(1) Verify that all electrical accessories are off.
Turn off all lamps, remove the ignition key, and close
all doors. If the vehicle is equipped with an illumi-
nated entry system or an electronically tuned radio,
allow the electronic timer function of these systems
to automatically shut off (time out). This may take
up to three minutes.
(2) Determine that the underhood lamp is operat-
ing properly, then disconnect the lamp wire harness
connector or remove the lamp bulb.
(3) Disconnect the battery negative cable.
(4) Set an electronic digital multi-meter to its
highest amperage scale. Connect the multi-meter
between the disconnected battery negative cable ter-
minal clamp and the battery negative terminal post.
Make sure that the doors remain closed so that the
illuminated entry system is not activated. The multi-
meter amperage reading may remain high for up to
three minutes, or may not give any reading at all
while set in the highest amperage scale, depending
upon the electrical equipment in the vehicle. The
multi-meter leads must be securely clamped to the
battery negative cable terminal clamp and the bat-
tery negative terminal post. If continuity between the

using the ª+º (plus) and ª2º (minus) multi-function
indicator push buttons. The clock is serviced as a
unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The clock gives an indication to the vehicle opera-
tor of the current time. The electronic digital clock is
controlled by the instrument cluster microprocessor
based upon cluster programming. The clock display is
completely controlled by the instrument cluster logic
circuit, and that logic will only allow this indication
to be viewed when the multi-function indicator Liq-
uid Crystal Display (LCD) is activated. However, the
clock remains functional regardless of the ignition
switch position.
The vehicle operator can choose to have the
optional ambient temperature indicator displayed
instead of the clock information, but the clock and
ambient temperature indicator cannot be displayed
at the same time. The clock or ambient temperature
indicator display option is selected using the multi-
function indicator clock switch on the instrument
cluster circuit board. This switch is actuated manu-
ally by depressing the clock switch push button that
extends through the lower edge of the cluster lens
below the left end of the multi-function indicator.
Actuating this switch momentarily will toggle the
display between the clock and ambient temperature
indicator modes. Actuating this switch twice within
about one second will cause the display to toggle, but
then automatically revert to the originally selected
mode after about twenty seconds.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use, operation and
setting procedures for the clock. For proper testing of
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
clock functions, a DRBIIItscan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
COOLANT LOW INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A coolant low indicator is standard equipment on
all instrument clusters. The coolant low indicator is
located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster,
to the left of the multi-function indicator display. The
coolant low indicator consists of the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for ªLow Engine
Coolantº imprinted within a rectangular cutout in
the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay.
The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indi-
cator from being clearly visible when it is not illumi-
nated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the
cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the
icon to appear silhouetted against a red field throughthe translucent outer layer of the overlay when the
indicator is illuminated from behind by the LED,
which is soldered onto the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The coolant low indicator is ser-
viced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The coolant low indicator gives an indication to the
vehicle operator when the engine coolant level is low.
This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the
instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster
programming and a hard wired input received by the
cluster from the engine coolant level switch. The cool-
ant low indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is com-
pletely controlled by the instrument cluster logic
circuit, and that logic will only allow this indicator to
operate when the instrument cluster detects that the
ignition switch is in the On position. Therefore, the
LED will always be off when the ignition switch is in
any position except On. The LED only illuminates
when it is provided a path to ground by the instru-
ment cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn on the coolant low indicator for the following
reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the coolant low indicator is
illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
²Engine Coolant Level Switch Input- Each
time the cluster detects an appropriate input on the
low coolant fluid level sense circuit (engine coolant
level switch resistance low = engine coolant level low)
while the ignition switch is in the On position, the
coolant low indicator will be illuminated. The indica-
tor remains illuminated until the low coolant fluid
level sense input to the cluster changes (engine cool-
ant level switch resistance high = engine coolant
level full), or until the ignition switch is turned to
the Off position, whichever occurs first. The engine
coolant level switch also features a diagnostic resis-
tor connected in parallel between the switch input
and output to provide the cluster with verification
that the low coolant fluid level sense circuit is not
open or shorted.
The engine coolant level switch integral to the cool-
ant bottle provides a hard wired input to the instru-
ment cluster circuitry through the low coolant fluid
level sense circuit. The engine coolant level switch
and the low coolant fluid level sense circuit to the
instrument cluster can be diagnosed using conven-
tional diagnostic tools and methods. For proper diag-
nosis of the instrument cluster circuitry that controls
the coolant low indicator, a DRBIIItscan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.

ule (ECM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN)
data bus. The low oil level indicator Light Emitting
Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instru-
ment cluster logic circuit, and that logic will only
allow this indicator to operate when the instrument
cluster detects that the ignition switch is in the On
position. Therefore, the LED will always be off when
the ignition switch is in any position except On. The
LED only illuminates when it is provided a path to
ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn on the low oil level indi-
cator for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the low oil level indicator
is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
²Engine Oil Level Low Message- Once the
engine has been started, each time the cluster
receives a message from the ECM indicating that the
engine oil level is at or near the ªMinimumº mark on
the dipstick, the low oil level indicator is illuminated.
The indicator remains illuminated briefly at first, but
will remain illuminated for longer periods as subse-
quent messages indicate that the oil level has
dropped further. Eventually, the indicator will
remain illuminated solid until the engine oil level is
corrected, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
The instrument cluster also supplements the oil level
indicator by displaying an engine oil icon along with
alpha-numeric messages in the multi-function indicator
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) advising the vehicle oper-
ator how much oil is required to correct the engine oil
level, and when the ªMaximumº engine oil level has
been exceeded. See the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box for more information on this feature.
The ECM continually monitors the engine oil level
and temperature sensor to determine the engine oil
level. The ECM then sends the proper engine oil
level messages to the instrument cluster. If the
instrument cluster turns on the indicator after the
bulb test, even after the engine oil level is sufficient,
it may indicate that the engine or the engine oiling
system requires service. For proper diagnosis of the
engine oil level and temperature sensor, the ECM,
the CAN data bus, or the electronic message inputs
to the instrument cluster that control the low oil
level indicator, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer
to the appropriate diagnostic information.
MAINTENANCE INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
An Active Service SYSTem (ASSYST) engine oil main-
tenance indicator is optional equipment on all instru-
ment clusters. In vehicles so equipped, a second,dedicated ASSYST microprocessor is integral to the
cluster electronic circuit board. The ASSYST indications
are displayed and can be toggled with the clock indica-
tion on the right side of the multi-function indicator
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) located near the lower
edge of the instrument cluster, directly below the speed-
ometer. The ASSYST displays include numeric values
combined with several icons to indicate actual engine oil
level, and reminders in time (days) or distance (miles or
kilometers) until the next required engine oil mainte-
nance is anticipated. ASSYST also provides several
audible indications using the electronic tone generator
on the instrument cluster circuit board to supplement
these visual displays.
The indications of the ASSYST engine oil mainte-
nance indicator are not visible when the LCD is not illu-
minated. When illuminated, the ASSYST indications
appear as dark characters and icons silhouetted against
an amber field. When the exterior lighting is turned Off,
the display is illuminated at maximum brightness.
When the exterior lighting is turned On, the display
illumination level can be adjusted in concert with the
cluster general illumination lighting using the ª+º (plus)
and ª2º (minus) multi-function indicator push buttons.
The ASSYST engine oil maintenance indicator is ser-
viced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The ASSYST engine oil maintenance indicator micro-
processor uses numerous criteria besides time and mile-
age to evaluate vehicle maintenance requirements. Time
data is taken from the electronic digital clock integral to
the instrument cluster. Vehicle distance data is obtained
from the Controller Antilock Brake (CAB) over the Con-
troller Area Network (CAN) data bus. Coolant tempera-
ture, engine oil temperature, engine oil level, engine oil
quality, engine speed, and engine load data are obtained
from the Engine Control Module (ECM) over the CAN
data bus. Using all of the available data and internal
programming, the ASSYST microprocessor then calcu-
lates the estimated time and distance to the next
required engine oil maintenance interval. The ASSYST
uses the multi-function indicator LCD to display that
data and, when necessary, issues audible alerts to the
vehicle operator through the electronic tone generator
on the cluster circuit board.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use, operation and
resetting procedures for the ASSYST maintenance
computer. Proper diagnosis and testing of the
ASSYST engine oil maintenance computer, the CAN
data bus and the electronic data bus message inputs
to the EMIC that are used by the ASSYST computer
for its calculations requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.

LOW OIL LEVEL INDICATOR (Continued)

MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
LAMP (MIL)
DESCRIPTION
A Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is standard
equipment on all instrument clusters. The MIL is
located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster, to
the right of the multi-function indicator display. The
MIL consists of the International Control and Display
Symbol icon for ªEngineº imprinted within a rectangu-
lar cutout in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster
overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents
the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not
illuminated. An amber Light Emitting Diode (LED)
behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay
causes the icon to appear silhouetted against an amber
field through the translucent outer layer of the overlay
when the indicator is illuminated from behind by the
LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The MIL is serviced as a unit with
the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) gives an indi-
cation to the vehicle operator when the Engine Control
Module (ECM) has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) for an On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) emissions-
related circuit or component malfunction. The MIL is
controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster cir-
cuit board based upon cluster programming and elec-
tronic messages received by the cluster from the ECM
over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. The
MIL Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled
by the instrument cluster logic circuit, and that logic will
only allow this indicator to operate when the instrument
cluster detects that the ignition switch is in the On posi-
tion. Therefore, the LED will always be off when the
ignition switch is in any position except On. The LED
only illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by
the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument cluster
will turn on the MIL for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the MIL is illuminated as a
bulb test. The indicator will remain illuminated until
the engine is started, or until the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first.
²MIL Lamp-On Message- Each time the clus-
ter receives a MIL lamp-on message from the ECM,
the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator will
remain illuminated until the detected fault is
repaired, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first. For more infor-
mation on the ECM and the DTC set and reset
parameters, (Refer to 25 - EMISSIONS CONTROL -
OPERATION).²Communication Error- If the cluster receives
no lamp-on or lamp-off message from the ECM, the
MIL is illuminated by the instrument cluster. The
indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the
cluster until a valid lamp-on or lamp-off message is
received from the ECM.
The ECM continually monitors the fuel and emis-
sions system circuits and sensors to decide whether
the system is in good operating condition. The ECM
then sends the proper lamp-on or lamp-off messages
to the instrument cluster. If the instrument cluster
turns on the MIL after the bulb test, it may indicate
that a malfunction has occurred and that the fuel
and emissions systems may require service. For
proper diagnosis of the fuel and emissions systems,
the ECM, the CAN data bus, or the electronic mes-
sage inputs to the instrument cluster that control the
MIL, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
MULTI-FUNCTION INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A multi-function indicator is standard equipment on
all instrument clusters. The multi-function indicator is
located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster,
directly below the speedometer. The multi-function indi-
cator consists of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) unit
and four push button-controlled switches that are sol-
dered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The LCD is visible through a large rectangular
cutout in the instrument cluster overlay, while the four
switch push buttons extend through a black plastic
switch bezel located on the cluster lens directly below
the LCD. The four multi-function indicator push buttons
allow the vehicle operator to configure and adjust sev-
eral of the display features. The buttons are labeled
from left to right: ªmiº (miles) or ªkmº (kilometers), an
icon depicting an analog clock face (clock), ª2º (minus),
and ª+º (plus).
The multi-function indicator LCD displays both
alpha-numeric characters and numerous icons to pro-
vide information to the vehicle operator. The indications
of the multi-function indicator are not visible when the
LCD is not illuminated. When illuminated the indica-
tions appear as dark characters and icons silhouetted
against an amber field. When the exterior lighting is
turned Off, the display is illuminated at maximum
brightness. When the exterior lighting is turned On the
display illumination level can be adjusted in concert
with the cluster general illumination lighting using the
ª+º (plus) and ª2º (minus) multi-function indicator push
buttons. The multi-function indicator LCD unit and
push button switches are serviced as a unit with the
instrument cluster.
8J - 20 INSTRUMENT CLUSTERVA

OPERATION
The multi-function indicator has several display
capabilities including odometer, trip odometer, clock,
engine oil level data, gear selector indicator
(PRNDL), certain diagnostic information and, on
vehicles so equipped, an optional Active Service SYS-
Tem (ASSYST) engine oil maintenance indicator and
an optional outside ambient temperature indicator.
The multi-function indicator is completely controlled
by the instrument cluster logic circuit, and that logic
will allow this indication to be viewed whenever the
multi-function indicator Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD) is activated. Therefore, the indicator remains
functional regardless of the ignition switch position.
With the ignition switch in the Off or Accessory posi-
tions and the key removed from the ignition lock cyl-
inder, the display is activated when the park lamps
are turned On or, for about thirty seconds after any
one of the multi-function indicator switch push but-
tons is depressed. Otherwise, the display unit is
active for about thirty seconds after the key is
inserted into the ignition lock cylinder, and inactive
about thirty seconds after the key is removed from
the ignition lock cylinder.
The multi-function indicator ªmiº (miles) or
ªkmº(kilometers) switch push button is used to con-
trol the odometer/trip odometer display modes. The
multi-function indicator clock switch push button is
used to control the clock/outside temperature display
modes. The multi-function indicator ª+º (plus) and
ª2º (minus) switch push buttons are used to adjust
the cluster general illumination dimming level, the
clock, and other cluster settings. See the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for more information
on the features, use, operation and setting proce-
dures for the various standard and optional multi-
function indicator displays.
Proper testing of the multi-function indicator LCD
unit, the CAN data bus and the electronic data bus
message inputs to the instrument cluster that control
some of the multi-function indicator functions
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information. Additional details
for the odometer/trip odometer, the clock, the gear
selector indicator, the ambient temperature indicator
and the ASSYST warning and reminder functions of
the multi-function indicator may be found elsewhere
in this service information.
ODOMETER
DESCRIPTION
An odometer and trip odometer are standard
equipment in all instrument clusters. The odometer
and trip odometer values are displayed on the leftside of the multi-function indicator Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD). The LCD is soldered onto the cluster
electronic circuit board and is visible through a win-
dow with a clear lens located near the lower edge of
the instrument cluster, directly below the speedome-
ter. However, the odometer and trip odometer infor-
mation are not displayed simultaneously. The ªmiº
(miles) or ªkmº (kilometers) switch on the instrument
cluster circuit board toggles the display between
odometer and trip odometer modes by depressing the
switch push button that extends through the lower
edge of the cluster lens, directly below the multi-
function indicator LCD.
The odometer and trip odometer information is
stored in the instrument cluster memory. This infor-
mation can be increased when the proper inputs are
provided to the instrument cluster, but the informa-
tion cannot be decreased. The odometer can display
values up to 999,999 kilometers (999,999 miles). The
odometer latches at these values, and will not roll
over to zero. The trip odometer can display values up
to 999.9 kilometers (999.9 miles) before it rolls over
to zero. The odometer display does not have a deci-
mal point and will not show values less than a full
unit (kilometer or mile), while the trip odometer dis-
play does have a decimal point and will show tenths
of a unit (kilometer or mile). The unit of measure
(kilometers or miles) for the odometer and trip odom-
eter display is imprinted on the cluster overlay below
the left end of the LCD. The unit of measure for the
instrument cluster odometer/trip odometer is selected
at the time that it is manufactured, and cannot be
changed.
The indications of the odometer/trip odometer are
not visible when the LCD is not illuminated. When
illuminated the indications appear as dark charac-
ters silhouetted against an amber field. When the
exterior lighting is turned Off, the display is illumi-
nated at maximum brightness. When the exterior
lighting is turned On the display illumination level
can be adjusted in concert with the cluster general
illumination lighting using the plus and minus multi-
function indicator push buttons. The odometer has a
ªRental Carº mode, which will activate the multi-
function indicator LCD and illuminate the odometer
information for about thirty seconds after one of the
multi-function indicator push buttons is momentarily
depressed, or after the key is inserted into the igni-
tion switch lock cylinder with the ignition switch in
the Off position.
The odometer/trip odometer and the miles/kilome-
ters switch, and the miles/kilometers switch push
button are serviced as a unit with the instrument
cluster.
