GENERAL INFORMATION
AA-BODY
The Illuminated Entry System (on AA Body) actu-
ates the interior courtesy and/or dome lamps (except
for the illuminated ignition switch) by lifting either
front door exterior handle. Lamp illumination is terminated 35 seconds ( 68
seconds later when battery voltage is normal), or by
turning the ignition switch to the run position,
whichever occurs first. When testing the system, all
vehicle doors must be closed to prevent the door jam
switches from activating the courtesy/dome lamps. Front door handle switches (Fig. 1), and the Illumi-
nated Entry Module (located behind and above the
glove box (Fig. 2) are used to control the system.
Depending on vehicle options, as many as six dif-
ferent electrical components/relays are located above
the glove box. The Illuminated Entry Module will be
the one mounted the closest to the outside of the in-
strument panel. The Module bracket is also used to
commonly mount the Power Door Lock Inhibitor Re-
lay, if equipped. Service procedures for door related components can
be found in Group 23, Body.

AIR BAG SERVICE AND TEST PROCEDURES
WARNING: THIS SYSTEM IS A SENSITIVE, COM-
PLEX ELECTRO-MECHANICAL UNIT. BEFORE AT-
TEMPTING TO DIAGNOSE, REMOVE OR INSTALL
THE AIR BAG SYSTEM COMPONENTS, YOU MUST
FIRST DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE NEGATIVE
(GROUND) BATTERY CABLE. FAILURE TO DO SO
COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY. WHEN AN UNDEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
IS TO BE REMOVED FROM THE STEERING
WHEEL, DISCONNECT BATTERY GROUND CA-
BLE AND ISOLATE. ALLOW SYSTEM CAPACI-
TOR TO DISCHARGE FOR TWO MINUTES THEN
BEGIN AIR BAG SYSTEM COMPONENT RE-
MOVAL. Vehicles equipped with a Air Bag System must be
inspected every three years or 30,000 miles / 48,000
Km. To inspect system use Passive Restraint System
Diagnostic Procedures Manual. If the Air Bag Module Assembly is defective and
non-deployed, refer to Chrysler Motors current re-
turn list for proper handling procedures.
WARNING: REPLACE AIR BAG SYSTEM COMPO-
NENTS WITH CHRYSLER MOPAR TSPECIFIED RE-
PLACEMENT PARTS. SUBSTITUTE PARTS MAY
VISUALLY APPEAR INTERCHANGEABLE, BUT IN-
TERNAL DIFFERENCES MAY RESULT IN INFERIOR
OCCUPANT PROTECTION.
THE FASTENERS, SCREWS, AND BOLTS, ORIG-
INALLY USED FOR THE AIR BAG COMPO-
NENTS, HAVE SPECIAL COATINGS AND ARE
SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THE AIR BAG
SYSTEM. THEY MUST NEVER BE REPLACED
WITH ANY SUBSTITUTES. ANYTIME A NEW
FASTENER IS NEEDED, REPLACE WITH THE CORRECT FASTENERS PROVIDED IN THE SER-
VICE PACKAGE OR FASTENERS LISTED IN THE
PARTS BOOKS.
GENERAL INFORMATION
AIR BAG MODULE
The air bag module is the most visible part of the
system (Fig 1). It contains the air bag cushion and
its supporting components. The air bag module con-
tains a housing to which the cushion and inflator are
attached and sealed.
The inflator assembly is mounted to the back of the
module housing. When supplied with the proper elec-
trical signal the inflator assembly will produce a gas
and discharges it directly into the cushion. A protec-
tive cover is fitted to the front of the air bag module
and forms a decorative cover in the center of the
steering wheel. The air bag module is mounted di-
rectly to the steering wheel.
Fig. 1 Air Bag Passive Restraint System
Ä RESTRAINT SYSTEMS 8M - 1

FRONT IMPACT SENSORS
The driver air bag system is a safety device de-
signed to reduce the risk of fatality or serious injury,
caused by a frontal impact of the vehicle. The impact sensors provide verification of the di-
rection and severity of the impact. Three impact sen-
sors are used. One is called a safing sensor. It is
located inside the diagnostic module which is
mounted on the floor pan, just forward of the center
console. The other two sensors are mounted on the
upper crossmember of the radiator closure panel on
the left and right side of the vehicle under the hood. The impact sensors are threshold sensitive switches
that complete an electrical circuit when an impact
provides a sufficient G force to close the switch. The
sensors are calibrated for the specific vehicle and re-
act to the severity and direction of the impact.
CLOCKSPRING
The clockspring is mounted on the steering column
behind the steering wheel, and is used to maintain a
continuous electrical circuit between the wiring har-
ness and the driver's air bag module. This assembly
consists of a flat ribbon-like electrically conductive
tape which winds and unwinds with the steering
wheel rotation.
DIAGNOSTIC MODULE
The Air Bag System Diagnostic Module (ASDM)
contains the safing sensor and energy reserve capac-
itor. The ASDM monitors the system to determine
the system readiness. The ASDM will store sufficient
energy to deploy the air bag for only two minutes af-
ter the battery is disconnected. If both front impact
sensors are open the air bag could be deployed up to
9.5 minutes after the battery is disconnected. The
ASDM contains on-board diagnostics, and will illumi-
nate the AIR BAG warning lamp in the cluster when
a fault occurs.
STORAGE
The air bag module must be stored in its original
special container until used for service. Additionally,
it must be stored in a clean, dry environment, away
from sources of extreme heat, sparks, and sources of
high electrical energy. Always place or store the
module on a surface with the trim cover facing up to
minimize movement in case of accidental deploy-
ment.
HANDLING LIVE MODULE
At no time should any source of electricity be per-
mitted near the inflator on the back of the module.
When carrying a live module, the trim cover should
be pointed away from the body to minimize injury in
the event of accidental deployment. In addition, if
the module is placed on a bench or other surface, the plastic trim cover should be face up to minimize
movement in case of accidental deployment. When handling a steering column with an air bag
module attached, never place the column on the floor
or other surface with the steering wheel or module
face down.
DEPLOYED MODULE
The vehicle interior may contain a very small
amount of sodium hydroxide powder, a byproduct of
air bag deployment. Since this powder can irritate
the skin, eyes, nose or throat, be sure to wear safety
glasses, rubber gloves and long sleeves during
cleanup (Fig. 2).
If you find that the cleanup is irritating your skin,
run cool water over the affected area. Also, if you ex-
perience nasal or throat irritation, exit the vehicle
for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation
continues, see a physician.
CLEANUP PROCEDURE
Begin the cleanup by putting tape over the two air
bag exhaust vents (Fig. 3) so that no additional pow-
der will find its way into the vehicle interior. Then
remove the air bag and air bag module from the ve-
hicle. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual pow-
der from the vehicle interior. Work from the outside
in so that you avoid kneeling or sitting in a un-
cleaned area. Be sure to vacuum the heater and A/C outlets as
well (Fig. 4). In fact it's a good idea to run the blower
on low and to vacuum up any powder expelled from
the plenum. You may need to vacuum the interior of
the car a second time to recover all of the powder. Place the deployed bag and module in your auto-
motive scrap.

SERVICE OF DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE
After an air bag has been deployed, the air bag
module and clockspring must be replaced because
they cannot be reused. Other air bag system compo-
nents are replaced if damaged.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
Vehicles equipped with a Air Bag System must be
inspected every three years or 30,000 miles / 48,000
Km. The following items should be inspected. (1) Inspect components for damage or deteriora-
tion. (a) If the air bag module housing shows signs of
physical damage or abuse, replace the module. (b) Check that both front impact sensors are
properly installed to the upper crossmember of the
radiator closure panel. Repair as required.
(2) Check the air bag warning lamp for proper op-
eration as follows: (a) Turn ignition switch to the ON position, the
air bag warning lamp should light. If not, test the system using the DRB II and Passive Restraint
System Diagnostic Procedures Manual. Repair as
required.
(b) The air bag warning lamp lights, but fails to go
out after ten seconds. Test the system using the DRB
II and Passive Restraint System Diagnostic Proce-
dures Manual. Repair as required. (c) Erasing of fault codes is not required.

cartridge. (5) After checking that no one is inside the vehicle,
connect the negative battery cable. (6) Using the DRB II, read and record active fault
data. (7) Read and record any stored faults.
(8) Refer to the Passive Restraint Diagnostic Test
Manual if any faults are found in steps 6 and 7. (9) Erase stored faults if there are no active fault
codes. If problems remain, fault codes will not erase. (10) With the ignition key in the ON position, make
sure no one is in the vehicle. (11) From the passenger side of vehicle, turn the
ignition key to OFF then ON and observe the instru-
ment cluster air bag lamp. It should go on for 6 to 8
seconds, then go out; indicating system is functioning
normally. If air bag warning lamp either fails to light,
blinks on and off or goes on and stays on, there is
a system malfunction. Refer to the Passive Re-
straint Diagnostic Test Manual to diagnose the

ahead position. Install steering wheel, ensure the
flats on hub align with clockspring. Pull the horn
lead through the smaller upper hole. Pull the air bag
and speed control leads through the larger bottom
hole. Ensure leads are not pinched under the steer-
ing wheel. (5) Connect the horn lead wire, then the air bag
lead wire to the air bag module. (6) Install the air bag module and tighten nuts to
9to11N Im (80 to 100 in. lb.) torque.
(7) Install speed control switch and connector or
cover. (8) Do not connect battery negative cable. Refer to
Air Bag Systems Check for proper procedure.
CLOCKSPRING CENTERING PROCEDURE
If the rotating tape within the clockspring is not
positioned properly with the steering wheel and the
front wheels, the clockspring may fail during use.
The following procedure MUST BE USED to center
the clockspring if it is not known to be properly po-
sitioned, or if the front wheels were moved from the
straight ahead position.
WARNING: BEFORE BEGINNING ANY AIR BAG
SYSTEM REMOVAL OR INSTALLATION PROCE-
DURES, REMOVE AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE (-) CABLE (GROUND) FROM THE VEHI-
CLE BATTERY. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO
DISABLE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DO
THIS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE INJURY.
WHEN AN UNDEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
IS TO BE REMOVED FROM THE STEERING
WHEEL, DISCONNECT BATTERY GROUND CA-
BLE AND ISOLATE. ALLOW SYSTEM CAPACI-
TOR TO DISCHARGE FOR TWO MINUTES, THEN
BEGIN AIR BAG REMOVAL. (1) Place front wheels in the straight ahead posi-
tion. (2) Wait two minutes for the reserve capacitor to
discharge before removing undeployed module. (3) Refer to Steering Wheel procedures for removal
of air bag module and steering wheel. (4) Depress the two plastic locking pins to disen-
gage locking mechanism (Fig. 10). (5) Keeping locking mechanism disengaged, rotate
the clockspring rotor in the CLOCKWISE DIREC-
TION to the end of travel. Do not apply excessive
torque. (6) From the end of travel, rotate the rotor two full
turns and a half in the counterclockwise direction.
The horn wire should end up at the top and the squib
wire at the bottom. Engage clockspring locking
mechanism. (7) Refer to Steering Wheel procedures for installa-
tion of steering wheel and air bag module. (8) Do not connect battery negative cable. Refer to
Air Bag System Check for proper procedure.
