HYDRAULIC
VALVE
The hydraulic valve is a pressure controlling device
and is operated by the electronic module. The valve
controls fluid apply pressure to the rear brake units
during antilock mode braking (Fig. 3). The valve is
mounted on the driver side frame rail at the front of
the vehicle.
The valve contains an accumulator, an isolation
valve and a dump valve. The accumulator is operated
by fluid and spring pressure. The two valves are op­ erated by electrical solenoids. The solenoids are oper­
ated by the antilock control module.
The hydraulic valve components are inactive dur­
ing periods of normal braking effort. The valve com­
ponents are activated only when braking effort and rate of wheel slip and deceleration are high (antilock

mode).

During normal braking the valve allows free flow
of brake fluid to the rear brake units. In antilock
mode, the valve will decrease, hold or increase fluid
apply pressure as needed. •

SPEED
SENSOR
AND EXCITER RING
A single pole, variable reluctance speed sensor is
used to transmit speed and rate of deceleration in­
puts to the control module (Fig. 4). The sensor is ac­
tuated by an exiter ring on the differential case.
The sensor is mounted at the top of the rear axle
housing directly over the gear-type exiter ring (Fig.
1).
The exciter ring is pressed onto the differential
case next to the ring gear.
The exciter ring is the sensor trigger mechanism.
As the ring rotates, the teeth on the ring will inter­
rupt the magnetic field around the sensor pole. The rate of interruption is converted into speed signals
which are transmitted to the control module.

RWAL Speed Sensor

ANTILOCK INDICATOR LAMP The amber colored indicator lamp is located in the
instrument panel. The lamp alerts the driver if a sys­
tem fault occurs.
The antilock and brake warning lamps are both in
circuit with the electronic module. The module will
cuit with the module. The module contains a micro­
processor that operates the system and performs system diagnostic checks. Speed sensor inputs are continuously monitored
and interpreted by the module. The module deter­
mines wheel speed and rate of deceleration from
these inputs and activates the appropriate solenoid in the hydraulic valve when necessary.
The module microprocessor also contains a self test
program. The program is activated when the ignition switch is turned to the On position. In this mode, the
module checks indicator light operation, the system
electrical circuits and the pressure limiting valve so­
lenoids.
The brake warning and antilock indicator lamps
are illuminated for approximately two seconds dur­
ing the system self test cycle.

tension and water pump pressure to force the valve
to open. Coolant leakage into the pellet container
will cause the thermostat to fail in the open position.
Thermostats very rarely stick. Do not attempt to free a thermostat with a prying device.
The same thermostat is used for winter and sum­
mer seasons. An engine should not be operated with­
out a thermostat, except for servicing or testing. Operating without a thermostat causes longer engine
warmup time, unreliable warmup performance, in­
creased exhaust emissions and crankcase condensa­
tion that can result in sludge formation.

CAUTION:
Do not operate an engine without a
ther­
mostat,
except for
servicing
or
testing.
THERMOSTAT OPERATION-EXCEPT DIESEL
The thermostat controls the operating temperature
of the engine by controlling the amount of coolant
flow to the radiator. The thermostat is closed below 88°C (192°F). When the coolant reaches this temper­
ature, the thermostat begins to open, allowing cool­
ant flow to the radiator. This provides quick engine
warm-up and overall temperature control. The ther­
mostat is designed to provide a minimum engine op­ erating temperature of 88 to 93°C (192 to 199°F). It
should be fully open for maximum coolant flow dur­
ing operation in hot ambient temperatures of approx­
imately 104°C (220°F). Above 104°C (220°F), coolant
temperature is controlled by the radiator, fan and ambient temperature.
An arrow plus the word UP is stamped on the
front flange next to the air bleed. The words TO RAD are stamped on one arm of the thermostat.
They indicate the proper installed position.
TESTING-ALL ENGINES The computer On-Board Diagnostics include a
mode for a thermostat open-too-soon failure condi­
tion. The Malfunction Indicator Light (formerly called the Check Engine Light) will not be lit by an
open-too-soon condition. But, if it has failed open, a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) number 17 will be
set. Do not change a thermostat for lack of heat as
indicated by the instrument panel gauge or heater
performance unless a DTC number 17 is present. Re­
fer to the Diagnosis section of this group for other
probable causes.
The more common type of thermostat failure, usu­
ally found on high milage vehicles, is a thermostat
failed in the shut position. The temperature gauge (if equipped) will give an indication of this condition.
Depending upon length of time that vehicle is oper­
ated, pressure cap may vent. This will expel steam
and coolant to coolant reserve/overflow tank and to
surface below vehicle. Refer to the Diagnosis section
of this group. Also refer to the DRB II diagnostic
scan tool.
On-Board Diagnostics for the 5.9L diesel engine
can be obtained through the DRB II scan tool.
Vehicles equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine do not
have the DTC number 17 malfunction indicator lamp (check engine lamp) feature.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Battery, Starting, and Charging Systems oper­
ate with one another, and therefore, must be thor­
oughly tested as a complete system. In order for the
vehicle to start and charge properly, it must have a
battery that will perform to specifications. The starter
motor, generator, wiring, and electronics also must
perform within specifications. Group 8A covers Start­ ing (Fig. 1) and Charging (Fig. 2) System diagnostic
procedures. These procedures include the most basic
conventional methods to On-Board Diagnostics (OBD)
built into the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
Use of an ammeter, volt/ohmmeter, battery
charger, carbon pile rheostat (load tester), and 12
volt test light will be required.
All OBD sensing systems are monitored by the
PCM. The PCM will store in memory any detectable
failure in the monitored circuits. Refer to Using On-
Board Diagnostic System in this group for more in­ formation.

D-body trucks have an instrument cluster which
includes gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature,
oil pressure, and charging system voltage (Fig. 1).
When the ignition switch is in the OFF position all
the gauges will show a reading except the voltage gauge. However, the readings are only accurate
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The cluster also includes warning lamps for:
• seat belt warning
• low oil pressure
• high beam
• left and right turn signals
• check engine. J908E-66

FUEL LEVEL INDICATING SYSTEM (FIG. 2)
A hinged float arm in the fuel tank raises or lowers
depending on the fuel level. The float arm contacts a
variable resistor in the gauge sending unit. This pro­
vides a change of resistance in the fuel gauge circuit
with any up or down movement of the float. This sender
resistance is shown as fuel level on the gauge. Resistance is greatest when the fuel level in the
tank is low and the float arm drops. With high resis­
tance current flow is low and consequently positions
the instrument panel gauge pointer to low.
Resistance in the circuit is at a minimum when the
tank is full and the float arm is raised. With resis­
tance at a minimum, current flow is high registering
full on the instrument panel gauge.

TEMPERATURE AND
OIL
INDICATING SYSTEM
(FIG.
3) The operation of the temperature and oil pressure
indicating systems are identical. In the temperature
system the sending unit resistance varies in direct
relationship to the temperature of the coolant. When the engine is cold, the resistance of the tem­
perature sending unit is high and a cold temperature
will be indicated on the gauge. When the engine is hot, the resistance of the tem­
perature sending unit is low and a hot temperature
will be indicated on the gauge. In the oil pressure indicating system the sending
unit resistance is actuated by a diaphragm as the oil
pressure increases or decreases. Low oil pressure causes high resistance. High pressure causes low re­
sistance. 12

OIL
PRESSURE
WARNING LAMP
The oil pressure warning switch, mounted on the
engine, is controlled by engine oil pressure. When engine oil pressure is normal, the switch is
held in the OFF or OPEN position. This stops cur­
rent from flowing to the oil pressure warning lamp
on instrument panel. When the engine oil pressure is low, the switch is
in the ON or CLOSED position. This allows current
to flow to the oil pressure warning lamp in the in­ strument cluster causing the warning lamp to illumi­

nate.

SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER SYSTEM
The speedometer/odometer system consists of an
electric speedometer and pushbutton reset odometer
mounted in the cluster. The system also includes the
wire harness from the cluster to the distance sensor at the transmission, and the adapter and pinion in
the transmission. The speedometer/odometer has the same appearance as a conventional version but it
eliminates the cable-driven mechanical system. A signal is sent from a transmission mounted distance
sensor to the speedometer/odometer circuitry through
the wiring harness. By eliminating the speedometer cable, instrument cluster service and removal is im­
proved. Refer to Group 21 - Transmission for select­ ing the proper pinion, and selecting and indexing the
proper adapter.
