SIDE IMPACT SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Two side impact sensors are used on this model
when it is equipped with the optional side curtain
airbags, one each for the left and right sides of the
vehicle (Fig. 46). These sensors are mounted
remotely from the bi-directional safing sensor that is
internal to the Airbag Control Module (ACM). The
side and front impact sensors are identical in con-
struction and calibration with the exception of the
right-hand and left-hand die cast aluminum mount-
ing brackets to which each front impact sensor is
secured with two screws. The side impact sensors are
secured with two screws to the base of the right and
left B-pillars just below the front seat belt retractors
and behind the lower B-pillar trim within the pas-
senger compartment.
8O - 42 RESTRAINTSWJ
SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG (Continued)

The impact sensor housing has an integral connec-
tor receptacle and two integral mounting ears, each
with a metal sleeve to provide crush protection. A
cavity in the center of the molded black plastic
impact sensor housing contains the electronic cir-
cuitry of the sensor which includes an electronic com-
munication chip and an electronic impact sensor.
Potting material fills the cavity to seal and protect
the internal electronic circuitry and components. The
side impact sensors are each connected to the vehicle
electrical system through a dedicated take out and
connector of the airbag overlay wire harness.
The side impact sensors cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if damaged or faulty, they must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The side impact sensors are electronic accelerome-
ters that sense the rate of vehicle deceleration, which
provides verification of the direction and severity of
an impact. Each sensor also contains an electronic
communication chip that allows the unit to commu-
nicate the sensor status as well as sensor fault infor-
mation to the microprocessor in the Airbag Control
Module (ACM). The ACM microprocessor continu-
ously monitors all of the passive restraint system
electrical circuits to determine the system readiness.
If the ACM detects a monitored system fault, it sets
a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and controls the
airbag indicator operation accordingly.
The impact sensors each receive battery current and
ground through dedicated left and right sensor plus
and minus circuits from the ACM. The impact sensors
and the ACM communicate by modulating the voltage
in the sensor plus circuit. The hard wired circuits
between the side impact sensors and the ACM may bediagnosed and tested using conventional diagnostic
tools and procedures. However, conventional diagnos-
tic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis
of the ACM or the impact sensors. The most reliable,
efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the impact
sensors, the ACM, and the electronic message commu-
nication between the sensors and the ACM requires
the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropri-
ate diagnostic information.

INTRUSION TRANSCEIVER
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
An Intrusion Transceiver Module (ITM) is part of
the premium version of the Vehicle Theft Alarm
(VTA) in the Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS)
(Fig. 5). The premium version of the VTA is only
available in vehicles built for certain markets, where
the additional features offered by this system are
required. The ITM is located in the passenger com-
partment. This unit is designed to provide interior
motion detection, and serve as an interface between
the Body Control Module (BCM) and the alarm siren
module.
The ITM is concealed beneath a dedicated molded
plastic trim cover that approximates the size and
shape of a typical dome lamp housing. However,
rather than a lens, the ITM features three sets of
louvered openings. One set of louvered openings is
located at each outboard end of the center rib, while
the third set is centered. Each of the louvered open-
ings is covered on the inside by a sight shield thatextends the length of the center rib. The module is
secured to a mounting bracket above the headliner
(Fig. 6).
Concealed within the housing is the circuitry of the
ITM which includes a microprocessor, and an ultra-
sonic receive transducer. Both the transmit trans-
ducer on the right side of the module and the receive
transducer on the ITM circuit board are aimed
through two small round holes in the sight shield of
the trim cover. The ITM is connected to the vehicle
electrical system by a take out and connector of the
overhead wire harness that is integral to the head-
liner.
The ITM unit cannot be adjusted or repaired and,
if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. The ITM is
serviced as a unit with the trim cover.
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Intrusion Transceiver
Module (ITM) contains the motion sensor logic cir-
cuits and controls all of the features of the premium
version of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA). The ITM
uses On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) and can communi-
cate with other modules in the vehicle as well as
with the DRBIIItscan tool using the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
This method of communication is used by the ITM to
communicate with the Body Control Module (BCM)
and for diagnosis and testing. The ITM also commu-
nicates with the alarm siren over a dedicated serial
bus circuit.

HOOD AJAR SWITCH (Continued)

The ITM microprocessor continuously monitors
inputs from its on-board motion sensor as well as
inputs from the BCM and the alarm siren module.
The ITM motion sensor transmits ultrasonic signals
into the vehicle cabin through a transmit transducer,
then listens to the returning signals as the bounce off
of objects in the vehicle interior. If an object is mov-
ing in the interior, a detection circuit in the ITM
senses this movement through the modulation of the
returning ultrasonic signals that occurs due to the
Doppler effect. The motion detect function of the ITM
can be disabled by depressing the ªLockº button on
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter three
times within fifteen seconds, while the security indi-
cator is still flashing rapidly or by cycling the key in
the driver door cylinder from the center to the lock
position. The ITM will signal the alarm siren module
to provide a single siren ªchirpº as an audible confir-
mation that the motion sensor function has been dis-
abled.
If movement is detected, the ITM sends an mes-
sage to the BCM over the PCI data bus to flash the
exterior lighting and send a message to the alarm
siren module over a dedicated serial bus line to
sound the siren. When the BCM detects a breach in
the perimeter protection through a door, tailgate,
flip-up glass, or hood ajar switch input, it sends an
message to the ITM and the ITM sends an message
to the BCM over the PCI data bus to flash the exte-
rior lighting and send a message to the alarm siren
module over a dedicated serial bus line to sound the
siren. The ITM also monitors inputs from the alarm
siren module for siren battery or siren input/output
circuit tamper alerts, and siren battery condition
alerts, then sets active and stored Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTC) for any monitored system faults it
detects. An active fault only remains for the current
ignition switch cycle, while a stored fault causes a
DTC to be stored in memory by the ITM. If a fault
does not reoccur for fifty ignition cycles, the ITM will
automatically erase the stored DTC.
The ITM is connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem through the overhead wire harness. The ITM
receives battery voltage on a B(+) circuit through a
fuse in the Junction Block (JB), and is grounded to
the chassis at G303. These connections allow the
ITM to remain operational, regardless of the ignition
switch position. The hard wired inputs and outputs
for the ITM may be diagnosed and tested using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and procedures. However,
conventional diagnostic methods will not prove con-
clusive in the diagnosis of the ITM, the PCI data bus
network, or the electronic message inputs to and out-
puts from the ITM. The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the ITM, the PCI data
bus network, and the message inputs to and outputsfrom the ITM requires the use of a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

BODY
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
WATER LEAKS
Water leaks can be caused by poor sealing,
improper body component alignment, body seam
porosity, missing plugs, or blocked drain holes. Cen-
trifugal and gravitational force can cause water to
drip from a location away from the actual leak point,
making leak detection difficult. All body sealing
points should be water tight in normal wet-driving
conditions. Water flowing downward from the front of
the vehicle should not enter the passenger or luggage
compartment. Moving sealing surfaces will not
always seal water tight under all conditions. At
times, side glass or door seals will allow water to
enter the passenger compartment during high pres-
sure washing or hard driving rain (severe) condi-
tions. Overcompensating on door or glass
adjustments to stop a water leak that occurs under
severe conditions can cause premature seal wear and
excessive closing or latching effort. After completing
a repair, water test vehicle to verify leak has stopped
before returning vehicle to use.
VISUAL INSPECTION BEFORE WATER LEAK TESTS
Verify that floor and body plugs are in place, body
drains are clear, and body components are properly
aligned and sealed. If component alignment or seal-
ing is necessary, refer to the appropriate section of
this group for proper procedures.
WATER LEAK TESTS
WARNING: DO NOT USE ELECTRIC SHOP LIGHTS
OR TOOLS IN WATER TEST AREA. PERSONAL
INJURY CAN RESULT.
When the conditions causing a water leak have
been determined, simulate the conditions as closely
as possible.
²If a leak occurs with the vehicle parked in a
steady light rain, flood the leak area with an open-
ended garden hose.
²If a leak occurs while driving at highway speeds
in a steady rain, test the leak area with a reasonable
velocity stream or fan spray of water. Direct the
spray in a direction comparable to actual conditions.
