1999 GENERAL SERVICING
A/C System General Servicing
All Models
USING R-134a REFRIGERANT
HANDLING/SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1) Always work in a well-ventilated, clean area. Refrigerant
is colorless and invisible as a gas. Refrigerant is heavier than
oxygen and will displace oxygen in a confined area. Avoid breathing
refrigerant vapors. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat.
2) Always wear eye protection when working around A/C system
and refrigerant. The system's high pressure can cause severe injury to
eyes and skin if a hose were to burst. If necessary, wear rubber
gloves or other protective clothing.
3) Refrigerant evaporates quickly when exposed to atmosphere,
freezing anything it contacts. If liquid refrigerant contacts eyes or
skin (frostbite), DO NOT rub eyes or skin. Immediately flush affected
area with cool water for 15 minutes and consult a doctor or hospital.
4) Never use R-134a in combination with compressed air for
leak testing. Pressurized R-134a in the presence of oxygen (air
concentrations greater than 60 percent by volume) may form a
combustible mixture. DO NOT introduce compressed air into R-134a
containers (full or empty), A/C system components, or service
equipment.
5) DO NOT expose A/C system components to high temperatures
(steam cleaning for example), as excessive heat will cause refrigerant\
system pressure to increase. Never expose refrigerant directly to open
flame. If refrigerant needs to be warmed, place bottom of refrigerant
tank in warm water. Water temperature MUST NOT exceed 125
F (52C).
CAUTION: When R-134a is exposed to an open flame, drawn into engine,
or detected with a Halide (propane) leak tester, a poisonous
gas is formed. Keep work areas well ventilated.
6) Use care when handling refrigerant containers. DO NOT
drop, strike, puncture, or incinerate containers. Use DOT 4BW or DOT
4BA approved refrigerant containers.
7) Never overfill refrigerant containers. The safe filling
level of a refrigerant container MUST NOT exceed 60\% of the
container's gross weight rating. Store refrigerant containers at
temperatures less than 125
F (52C).
8) R-134a refrigerant is sold and stored in 30- or 50-pound
Light Blue containers, while Freon (R-12) is stored in White colored
containers.
9) Refrigerant R-12 and R-134a must never be mixed, as they
and their desiccants and lubricants are not compatible. If the
refrigerants are mixed, system cross-contamination or A/C system
component failure may occur. Always use separate servicing and
refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment.
10) Read and follow equipment manufacturer's instructions for
all service equipment to be used. The Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS), provided by refrigerant manufacturer/supplier, contains
valuable information regarding the safe handling of refrigerants.
IDENTIFYING R-134a SYSTEMS & COMPONENTS

Because R-134a is not interchangeable with R-12, separate
sets of hoses, gauges, and recovery/recycling equipment are required
to service vehicles. This is necessary to avoid cross-contamination
and damaging system.
All equipment used to service systems using R-134a must meet
SAE standard J2210. The service hoses on the manifold gauge set must
have manual (turn wheel) or automatic back-flow valves at the service
port connector ends. This will prevent refrigerant from being released
into the atmosphere.
For identification purposes, R-134a service hoses must have a
Black stripe along their length and be clearly labeled SAE J2196/134a.
The low pressure test hose is Blue with a Black stripe. The high-side
test hose is Red with a Black stripe. The center test hose is Yellow,
or White, with a Black stripe.
NOTE: Refrigerant R-12 service hoses will ONLY be labeled SAE
J2196.
All R-134a manifold gauge sets can be identified by one or
all of the following:
* Labeled FOR USE WITH R-134a on set.
* Labeled HFC-134 or R-134a on gauge face.
* Light Blue color on gauge face. In addition,
pressure/temperature scales on R-134a gauge sets are
different from R-12 manifold gauge sets.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
A manifold gauge set is used to determine the system's high-
side and low-side pressures, correct refrigerant charge, and operating
efficiency. High (discharge) and low (suction) pressures must be
compared to determine system operation. Manifold gauge sets for the 2
refrigerant types are basically the same except for fittings at ends
of hoses. Fittings are different to ensure connection only to
appropriate refrigerant system.
Low-Side Gauge
Low-side gauge, which may have a Blue identifying feature, is
used to measure low-side (suction) pressure. Low-side gauge is also
called a compound gauge because it can measure pressure and vacuum.
Pressure scale ranges from 0 to 150 psi; vacuum scale ranges from 0 to
30 in. Hg.
High-Side Gauge
High-side gauge, which may have a Red identifying feature, is
used to measure high-side (discharge) pressure. Gauge scale ranges
from 0 to 500 psi.
CONNECTING GAUGE SET
NOTE: R-134a quick disconnect service couplings are connected in
the same sequence as Schrader-type service valves.
Schrader-Type Valves
1) Put on safety goggles, and cover vehicle's fender. Slowly
remove protective caps from Schrader valves to check for leaky valves.
CAUTION: Ensure hand valves on manifold gauge set and the hose-end
shutoff valves are closed before attaching test hoses to
Schrader valves.

VALVES. Connect 2 hoses with shutoff valves to manifold gauge set
center port. Connect one hose to vacuum pump and other hose to
refrigerant container. Weight of refrigerant container before and
after charging can be used to determine amount of refrigerant drawn
into system. Using vacuum pump, purge air from center hoses.
3) Fully open manifold gauge set low-side valve and
refrigerant container valve to allow refrigerant to enter A/C system.
When no more refrigerant is being drawn into A/C system, start engine
and allow to idle. Select MAX A/C, set blower motor speed to maximum
and allow remaining refrigerant to be drawn into A/C system.
NOTE: When ambient air temperature is high, it may be necessary to
use an external cooling fan to blow air through condenser and
radiator.
4) When proper amount of refrigerant has been added, close
refrigerant container valve. Allow any refrigerant remaining in hose
to be drawn into A/C system. When low-side pressure decreases to about
30 psi (2.1 kg/cm
), close center valve on manifold gauge set. Ensure
A/C system is operating properly. Disconnect manifold gauge set.
Install service port caps. Check system for leaks. See LEAK TESTING.
GENERAL MOTORS
Manufacturer recommends using A/C Refrigerant Recovery,
Recycling And Recharging (ACR4) System (J-39500). The ACR4 system ha\
s
one filtering cycle during recovery plus an automatic multiple pass
filtering during evacuation cycle. Follow manufacturer's instructions
provided with ACR4 equipment being used.
JEEP
Connect recovery/recycling equipment, meeting SAE standard
J1991 or J2210, to vehicle. Charge A/C system to specifications, using
equipment manufacturer's instructions.
LEAK TESTING
TYPES OF LEAK DETECTORS
Bubble Solution Detector
This is a solution applied externally at suspected leak
points. Leaking refrigerant will cause the detector to form bubbles
and foam. A soap and water solution also works well.
Dye Solution
This is a colored solution that may be introduced into the
A/C system. The dye will show up and color components at leak points.
Some manufacturers offer refrigerant containing a Red dye. This dye-
containing refrigerant is installed by normal charging procedures.
Other dye solutions are visible with a Black light only.
Electronic Leak Detector
This instrument will draw in any leaking refrigerant through
a test probe, and then sound an audible signal or create a flashing
light if refrigerant is found. It is the most sensitive of the leak
detectors used. Leak detectors are sensitive to windshield washing
solutions, many solvents and cleaners, and some adhesives. Ensure
surfaces near test areas are clean and dry to prevent false signal or
detector damage. Liquids ingested into detector will damage detector.

1999 AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
DaimlerChrysler Corp.
Dodge: Ram Pickup
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is designed to work in
conjunction with seat belts. SRS helps to reduce the risk or severity
of serious injury during a front-end collision. Driver-side air bag is
stored in a module in steering wheel hub. All models are equipped with
passenger-side air bags. Passenger-side air bag is stored in the
instrument panel, above glove box. All air bags are covered by a pad
bearing the air bag SRS logo.
Air bag(s) inflate and deflate within 1/10th of a second of
impact sensor switches closing. This creates a cushion of air between
driver and steering wheel and passenger and instrument panel.
System consists of an AIR BAG warning light, clockspring,
driver-side and passenger-side air bag modules, Air Bag Control Module
(ACM), one impact sensor (located inside ACM) and an energy reserve
capacitor. The ACM monitors system, stores fault codes (messages) and
provides information to AIR BAG warning light and Data Link Connector
(DLC). When a malfunction occurs, a fault code is stored and AIR BAG
warning light is activated for more than 12 seconds.
When impact sensor registers sufficient deceleration force
during a front-end collision, an electrical charge is sent from ACM to
air bag module inflator via the clockspring. Inflator actuates and
produces nitrogen gas, which inflates air bag(s).
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
Whenever ignition switch is in RUN or START position, AIR BAG
warning light on instrument panel will illuminate for 6-8 seconds and
then turn off. This signifies ACM has checked the system and found
that it is functioning properly. If AIR BAG warning light illuminates
for 12 seconds or more, stays on all the time or does not come on, a
system malfunction exists and trouble code will be stored.
IMPACT SENSOR
All models have one impact sensor located inside ACM. Impact
sensor is an accelerometer that measures deceleration. During a front-
end collision, a signal is sent that completes an electrical circuit
to inflators. Inflators actuate and produce nitrogen gas, which
inflates each air bag. Impact sensor is calibrated for a specific
vehicle and react to severity and direction of vehicle impact.
AIR BAG MODULE
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to disassemble air bag modules. Air bag
modules are not serviceable.
Driver-Side
Air bag module is mounted on front face of steering wheel. A

protective cover is fitted to front of air bag module bearing the SRS
air bag logo. Air bag module contains air bag cushion, inflator and
supporting components. Air bag module is a sealed unit and is not
serviceable. The module inflator assembly produces nitrogen gas to
fill air bag cushion when a small amount of current from ACM is
applied to the ignitor assembly. Gas pressure builds and discharges
from inflator through a diffuser and screen assembly, forcing steering
wheel cover to burst along its seams until air bag is fully inflated.
Once air bag cushion is fully inflated, gas escapes from bag through
vents, away from driver.
Passenger-Side
Air bag module is mounted to instrument panel mounting
bracket. Module is covered by a protective door bearing the SRS air
bag logo. When supplied an electrical signal, inflator will discharge
argon gas directly into air bag. When air bag inflates, protective
door will pivot aside allowing air bag to deploy.
AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE (ACM)
ACM is located under instrument panel, on transmission
tunnel. Impact sensor, energy reserve capacitor and On-Board
Diagnostics (OBD) are an integral part of ACM. ACM monitors critical
input and output circuits within air bag system, ensuring they are
operating correctly. Some circuits are tested continuously; others are
checked only under certain conditions. ACM provides information about
air bag system through AIR BAG warning light and Data Link Connector
(DLC). When diagnostic trouble code (fault message) is stored, AIR B\
AG
warning light will be activated for 12 seconds or more.
DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)
DLC is located under left side of instrument panel, left of
steering column. DLC is used to access SRS on-board diagnostics.
CLOCKSPRING
Clockspring connects air bag module to steering column
wiring, completing air bag system circuit. See Fig. 1. Inside
clockspring is a flat, ribbon-like tape of conductive material, which
winds and unwinds with steering wheel movement. Clockspring is the
most fragile part of air bag system. Clockspring must be centered
properly to allow 1 1/2 steering wheel turns in either direction. If
clockspring is not centered properly, it can break from stretching or
fatigue.

PASSENGER AIR BAG DISARM (PAD) SWITCH
PAD switch is mounted on instrument panel. Switch allows
passenger-side airbag module to be disarmed when rear facing child
safety seat is being used. PAD switch is operated with ignition key.
SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK
Turn ignition on and observe AIR BAG warning light. AIR BAG
warning light should illuminate for 6-8 seconds and then go out,
indicating system is functioning properly. If AIR BAG warning light
either fails to illuminate or illuminates continuously, a system
malfunction exists. Perform self-diagnostics. See DIAGNOSIS & TESTING.
After completing necessary repairs, turn ignition switch to
ON position. Ensure no one is inside vehicle, then connect negative
battery cable. Using DRB, erase stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC).\
See DIAGNOSIS & TESTING .
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
These precautions should be observed when working with air
bag systems:
* Disable air bag system before servicing any air bag system
or steering column component. Failure to do this could
result in accidental air bag deployment and possible
personal injury. See DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM .
* Back-up power supply maintains deployment voltage for about
2 minutes after battery is disconnected. When disabling air
bag system, always wait at least 2 minutes after
disconnecting battery cables to resume procedure.
* After repairs, ensure AIR BAG warning light works
properly and no system faults are indicated. See
SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK .
* Always wear safety glasses when servicing or handling an
air bag.
* All SRS component fasteners are specially coated and are
designed with a specific function. Never replace SRS
component fasteners with other than original equipment parts.
* Air bag module must be stored in its original special
container until used for service. It must be stored in a
clean, dry, place, away from sources of extreme heat, sparks
and high electrical energy.
* When placing a live air bag on a bench or other surface,
always face air bag and trim cover up, away from surface.
This will reduce motion of module if accidentally deployed.
* After deployment, air bag surface may contain deposits of
sodium hydroxide, which irritates skin. Always wear safety
glasses, rubber gloves, and long-sleeved shirt during
clean-up and wash hands using mild soap and water. Follow
correct disposal procedures. See DISPOSAL PROCEDURES.
* Because of critical system operating requirements, DO NOT
attempt to service any air bag components. Corrections are
only made by replacing defective part.
* Electrical sources should never be allowed near inflator on
back of air bag module.
* When carrying a live air bag module, trim cover should be
pointed away from your body to minimize injury in case of
deployment.
* When testing voltage or continuity at Air Bag Control Module

(ACM), use wire side (not terminal end) of connector.
* DO NOT probe a wire through insulator, as this will damage
it and eventually cause failure.
* When performing electrical tests, prevent accidental
shorting of terminals. Such shorts can damage fuses or
components and may cause a second fault code to set, making
diagnosis of original problem more difficult.
* When diagnosing air bag system, use DRB volt/ohmmeter
unless instructed to use an external volt/ohmmeter. NEVER
use an analog volt/ohmmeter or test light in place of a
digital volt/ohmmeter.
* When using DRB to diagnose an air bag system problem,
operate DRB from outside of vehicle. DO NOT sit inside of
vehicle.
* Never use an ohmmeter to measure resistance of air bag
module. Accidental air bag deployment may occur, causing
personal injury.
* If air bag system is not fully functional for any reason,
vehicle should not be driven until system is repaired and
again becomes operational. DO NOT remove bulbs, modules,
sensors, or other components or in any way disable system
from operating normally. If air bag system is not
functional, park vehicle until it is repaired and functions
properly.
* When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may
exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.
See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES in GENERAL INFORMATION
before disconnecting battery.
DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM
WARNING: Wait at least 2 minutes after disconnecting negative battery
cable before servicing air bag system. System reserve
capacitor, integral to ACM, maintains air bag system voltage
for about 2 minutes after battery is disconnected. Servicing
air bag system before 2-minute period may cause accidental
deployment of air bag(s) and possible personal injury. DO NOT\
use computer system memory saving devices. Enough voltage to
deploy air bag(s) may be provided from device.
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may
exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.
See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES in GENERAL INFORMATION
before disconnecting battery.
Disabling System
To disable air bag system for repairs, ensure ignition switch
is in OFF position. Disconnect and shield negative battery cable.
After disconnecting negative battery cable, wait at least 2 minutes
for reserve capacitor to discharge before servicing air bag system.
Activating System
Reconnect negative battery cable. From a position clear of air bag(s),\
turn ignition on. Perform system operation check. See
SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK .

DIAGNOSIS & TESTING
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
WARNING: Always follow air bag service precautions to avoid air bag
deployment and possible personal injury. Refer to procedure
under SERVICE PRECAUTIONS . After component replacement,
ensure proper system operation. See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK.
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may
exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.
See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES in GENERAL INFORMATION.
NOTE: Although other scan tools are available, manufacturer
recommends using Diagnostic Readout Box (DRB) tester to
access SRS on-board diagnostics. Following diagnosis and
testing procedures are designed for use with DRB.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
SRS is monitored by Air Bag Control Module (ACM). ACM
contains safing sensor, an integral sensor in circuitry of system,
which is used to deploy air bag modules.
ACM monitors critical input and output circuits within air
bag system, ensuring they operate correctly. Some circuits are tested
continuously; others are checked under certain conditions. ACM
provides information about air bag system, through AIR BAG warning
light and DRB tester. Each circuit monitored by ACM has a
corresponding fault code or fault message assigned to it.
Active Codes
A code becomes active as soon as a malfunction is detected.
An active trouble code indicates an on-going malfunction. This means
the defect is currently there every time the ACM checks that
circuit/function. An active trouble code can not be erases. Active
codes will automatically erase when the reason for the code has been
corrected.
With the exception of warning light trouble codes or
malfunctions, when a malfunction is detected, AIR BAG warning light
remains illuminated for a minimum of 12 seconds or as long as the
malfunction is present.
Stored Codes
Trouble codes are automatically stored in ACM memory as soon

as the malfunction is detected. A stored code indicates there was an
active code present at some time. However, the code currently may not
be present as an active code, although another active code could be.
When a trouble code occurs, the AIR BAG warning light
illuminates for 12 seconds minimum (even if problem existed for less
than 12 seconds). Code is stored, along with time in minutes it was
active, and number of times ignition has been cycled since problem was
detected.
When and if malfunction ceases to exist, an ignition cycle
count will be initiated for that code. If ignition cycle count reaches
100 without a reoccurrence of the same malfunction, DTC is erased and
that ignition cycle counter is reset to zero. If malfunction reoccurs
before count reaches 100, ignition cycle counter will be reset and DTC
will continue to be a stored code.
If a particular code is not active while performing
diagnostic test for that code, code diagnostic test may not locate the
source of the problem. In this case, stored code can only indicate an
area of system to inspect.
If no obvious problems are found, erase stored codes, and
with ignition on, wiggle wiring harness and connectors. Recheck for
codes periodically as you work through system. This procedure may
uncover a difficult problem to locate.
PRETEST INSPECTION & DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
Following precautions and procedures must be followed:
* Always follow air bag service precautions to avoid air bag
deployment and possible personal injury. Refer to procedure
under See SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
* After component replacement, ensure proper system operation.
See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK .
* When testing voltage or continuity at ACM, use terminal side
(not wire end) of connector. DO NOT probe wire through
insulation.
* Always check if any TECH SERVICE BULLETINS (TSBs) apply to
vehicle.
* When using diagnostic charts, DO NOT skip any steps in chart
or incorrect diagnosis may result. Always perform
SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK after repairs are made.
* Always use most current DRB diagnostic program cartridge
available to prevent erroneous codes or test results.
* When using diagnostic charts, use DRB voltmeter unless
instructed to use an external voltmeter. Never use a test
light in place of a voltmeter.
* When performing electrical tests, prevent accidental
shorting of terminals. Such shorts can damage fuses or
components and may cause a second code (message) to be
set, making diagnosis of original problem more difficult.
* Vehicle must have a fully-charged battery and functional
charging system.
* Each time a connector is disconnected, inspect it to ensure
it is in good condition. Always focus on circuit being
tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most common problems
in connectors.
* Always disconnect DRB after use.
* Always disconnect DRB before charging battery.
USING DRB
1) Refer to DRB user guide for instructions and assistance
with reading trouble codes and other DRB functions. Under normal
operation DRB will display one of only 2 error messages: User-
