required because the part in question is no longer providing the
function for which it is intended, does not meet a vehicle
manufacturer's design specification or is missing.
Example:
An exhaust pipe has corroded severely and has a hole
in it through which exhaust gases are leaking. Replacement
of the exhaust pipe in this case is required due to
functional failure.
Example:
A brake rotor has been worn to the point where it
measures less than the vehicle manufacturer's discard
specifications. Replacement of the rotor is required
because it does not meet design specifications.
Some conditions indicate that a service or part replacement
is suggested because the part is close to the end of its useful life
or addresses a customer's need, convenience or request. If a
customer's vehicle has one of these conditions, the procedure may be
only to suggest service.
Example:
An exhaust pipe is rusted, corroded or weak, but no leaks are
present. In this case, the exhaust pipe has not failed.
However, there is evidence that the pipe may need replacement
in the near future. Replacement of the pipe may be suggested
for the customer's convenience in avoiding a future problem.
Example:
The customer desires improved ride and/or handling,
but the vehicle's shocks or struts have not failed. In this
case, replacement may be suggested to satisfy the customer's
wishes. In this case, replacement of the shocks or struts may
not be sold as a requirement.
A customer, of course, has the choice of whether or not a
shop will service his or her vehicle. He or she may decide not to
follow some of your suggestions. When a repair is required, a MAP shop
must refuse partial service on that system if, in the judgment of the
service provider, proceeding with the work could create or continue an
unsafe condition. When a procedure states that required or suggested
repair or replacement is recommended, the customer must be informed of
the generally acceptable repair/replacement options whether or not
performed by the shop.
When presenting suggested repairs to the customer, you must
present the facts, allowing the customer to draw their own conclusions
and make an informed decision about how to proceed.
The following reasons may be used for required and suggested
services. These codes are shown in the "Code" column of the MAP
Uniform Inspection & Communications Standards that follow:
Reasons to Require Repair or Replacement
A - Part no longer performs intended purpose
B - Part does not meet a design specification (regardless of
performance)
C - Part is missing
NOTE: When a repair is required, the shop must refuse partial
service to the system in question, if the repair creates
or continues an unsafe condition.

BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Disconnect blower motor
resistor harness connector. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity
between all blower motor resistor terminals. If continuity exists
between all terminals, go to next step. If continuity does not exist
between all terminals, replace faulty blower motor resistor.
2) Check for open or short in circuits between blower motor
resistor and heater control panel. Also check for open or short in
wire between blower motor resistor and blower motor.
BLOWER MOTOR SWITCH
Dakota, Durango & Ram Pickup
1) Using a voltmeter, check for battery voltage at underhood
power distribution center fuse No. 5 (40-amp) on Dakota and Durango;
fuse No. 12 (40-amp) on Ram Pickup. If battery voltage exists, go to
next step. If battery voltage does not exist, check for open in Red
wire between battery and underhood power distribution center. If Red
wire is okay, replace underhood power distribution center.
2) Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove heater control
panel. See HEATER CONTROL PANEL R & I . Disconnect heater control panel
harness connector. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity between
heater control panel harness connector terminal No. 7 (Black wire on
Dakota and Durango; Black/Orange on Ram Pickup) and ground. If
continuity exists, go to step 4).
3) If continuity does not exist, repair open in Black wire or
Black/Orange wire between heater control panel harness connector
terminal No. 7 and ground connector located at lower right corner of
instrument panel (Dakota and Durango) or behind center of instrument
panel (Ram Pickup).
4) Place heater mode control knob to any position except OFF.

systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist
until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See
COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION
before disconnecting battery.
NOTE: Testing of instrument panel and gauges requires using a scan
tool to check circuits connected to Body Control Module
(BCM). See appropriate BODY CONTROL COMPUTER TESTS article.
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
NOTE: There are 2 instrument cluster connectors. These connectors
look identical. Identify connectors by wire color. See WIRING
DIAGRAMS.
Ram Pickup
1) If CCD bus controlled indicator lights and gauges do not
operate, go to step 4). If indicator lights operate and all gauges do
not operate, go to next step.
2) Check for battery voltage between ground and both sides of
fuse No. 14 in junction block. If battery voltage exists on both
sides, go to next step. If battery voltage exists on one side only,
repair short circuit and replace fuse. If battery voltage does not
exist on both sides, locate and repair open circuit. See WIRING
DIAGRAMS.
3) Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove instrument
cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Connect
negative battery cable. Measure voltage between ground and terminal
No. 6 (Yellow wire) of instrument cluster connector C1. See Fig. 1. If
battery voltage is present, reinstall instrument cluster and go to
SELF-DIAGNOSTICS. If battery voltage is not present, repair open
circuit between fuse No. 14 in junction block and instrument cluster
connector C1.
4) Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and both
sides of fuse No. 17 (10-amp) in junction block. If battery voltage
exists on both sides, go to next step. If battery voltage exists on
one side only, repair short circuit and replace fuse. If battery
voltage does not exist on both sides, repair open Dark Blue wire
between ignition switch and junction block.
5) Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable.
Reconnect instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL &
INSTALLATION. Connect negative battery cable. Turn ignition on. Set
parking brake and observe instrument cluster brake warning light. If
brake warning light is off, go to step 7). If brake warning light is
on, go to next step.
6) Turn ignition off. Turn parking lights on and adjust
instrument panel lights dimmer rheostat to full bright position. If
instrument panel lights are on, go to step 8). If instrument panel
lights are off, repair open ground circuit to instrument cluster
connector C1 terminal No. 4 (Black/Light Green wire) or No. 5
(Black/Orange wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS.
7) Turn ignition off and disconnect negative battery cable.
Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL &
INSTALLATION. Connect negative battery cable. Turn ignition on.
Measure voltage between ground and instrument cluster connector C1
terminal No. 2 (Dark Blue/White wire). If battery voltage exists, go
to SELF-DIAGNOSTICS. If battery voltage does not exist, repair open
Dark Blue/White wire.
8) Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable.
Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL &
INSTALLATION. Using an ohmmeter, check continuity between ground and
instrument cluster connector C1 terminals No. 4 (Black/Light Green
wire) and No. 5 (Black/Orange wire). If continuity exists, go to SELF\
