STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN REMOVAL PROCE-
DURES.
The horn circuit consists of a horn switch, horn re-
lay, and horns. The horn circuit feed is from the fuse
box to the number 1 terminal on the horn relay.
When the horn switch is depressed, this completes
the circuit to ground. This activates the horn relay
and an set of contacts in the relay to close, which al-
lows current to flow to the horn(s). The horn ground
wire is attached to the headlamp ground screw (Fig.
1).
TESTING HORN SYSTEM
HORNS WILL NOT SOUND
If the horns do not sound, check for a blown horn
fuse in the fuse block. If the fuse is blown, replace it
with the same fuse type. If the horns fail to sound
and the new fuse blows when depressing the horn
switch, a short circuit in the horn or the horn wiring
between the fuse terminal and the horn is responsi-
ble. If the fuse is good, disconnect wire connector at
horn. Using an test lamp, connect one lead to the
negative terminal and the other to the positive ter-
minal (Fig. 2). Depress the horn switch, the test
lamp should illuminate. If not connect the test lamp wire to a good ground and depress the horn switch. If
test lamp lights inspect ground wire circuit and re-
pair as needed.
If the test lamp fails to illuminate, check for a de-
fective horn relay. Substituting a known good horn
relay in the circuit. If the test lamp illuminates
when depressing the horn switch, the original relay
is defective. If the test lamp fails to illuminate with
a known good relay, unplug that relay. Connect a
jumper wire from the battery terminal to the horn
terminal on the relay terminal board (Fig. 3, 4, or 5).
If the test lamp connected in place of the horns, fails
to illuminate an open circuit in the wiring between
the relay terminal and the horn switch is at fault re-
pair as necessary.
HORNS SOUND CONTINUOUSLY
CAUTION: Continuous sounding of horns may
cause relay to fail.
Should the horns sound continuously, unplug the
horn relay from the terminal board inside the pas-
senger compartment. Plug in a known good relay. If
the horns stop blowing, relay is defective and must
be replaced. Should the horns still sound, proceed as
follows: Connect one voltmeter lead to battery termi-
nal on relay board and the other lead to switch ter-
minal. Refer to Figs. 6, 7, or 8. Voltmeter will

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-

AIRBAG REMOVAL PROCEDURES.
TURN SIGNALSÐAC, AY, AA AND AP BODIES
The turn signals are part of the multi-function switch.
Which contains electrical circuitry for turn signal, cor-
nering lamps, hazard warning, headlamp beam select,
headlamp optical horn, windshield wiper, pulse wipe
and windshield washer switching. The integrated switch
assembly is mounted to the left hand side of the steer-
ing column. When the driver wishes to signal his inten-
tions to change direction of travel, he moves the lever
upward to cause the right signals to flash and down-
ward to cause the left signals to flash. After completion
of a turn the system is deactivated automatically. As
the steering wheel returns to the straight ahead posi-
tion, a canceling cam of two lobes molded to the clock-
spring mechanism comes in contact with the cancel
actuator on the turn signal multi-function switch as-
sembly. Either cam lobe, pushing on the cancel actua-
tor, returns the switch to the off position. If only momentary signaling such as indication of a
lane change is desired, the switch is actuated to a left
or right intermediate detent position. In this position
the signal lamps flash as described above, but the
switch returns to the OFF position as soon as the lever
is released.
When the system is activated, 1 of 2 indicator
lamps mounted in the instrument cluster flashes in
unison with the turn signal lamps, indicating to the
driver that the system is operating.
AG AND AJ BODIES
The turn signals are actuated with lever on the left
side of the instrument panel switch pod. When the
driver wishes to signal his intentions to change di- rection of travel, he moves the lever upward to cause
the right signals to flash and downward to cause the
left signals to flash. After completion of a turn the system is deacti-
vated automatically. The cancellation switch in the
steering column sends a signal to a remote turn sig-
nal switch in the switch pod to cancel the turn signal
function. As the steering wheel returns to the
straight ahead position from a turn, a cancel cam
which is located on the steering wheel contacts a
cancel flipper located on the cancellation switch.
When the flipper is contacted by the cancel cam in
the proper rotational direction, the cancel switch
sends a signal to the remote turn signal switch. If only momentary signaling such as indication of a
lane change is desired, the switch is actuated to a
left or right intermediate detent position. In this po-
sition the signal lamps flash as described above, but
the switch returns to the OFF position as soon as the
lever is released. When the system is activated, 1 of 2 indicator
lamps mounted in the instrument cluster flashes in
unison with the turn signal lamps, indicating to the
driver that the system is operating.
HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM
The hazard warning system is actuated by a push
button located on the top of the steering column be-
tween the steering wheel and the instrument panel.
The hazard switch is identified with a double trian-
gle on top of the button. Push and release the button
to turn the hazard function ON or OFF. The button
will move out from the steering column in the ON
position and will remain in toward the column in the
OFF position.
CHIME FUNCTIONÐAC, AG, AJ AND AY
The chime will sound after the vehicle has traveled
a distance of 0.6 miles at a speed above 15 miles per
hour.

fail, the entire switch assembly must be replaced. Re-
fer to Fig. 1 for diagnosis. To test the switch, first disconnect the negative
battery cable, then remove the upper and lower col-
umn covers to gain access to the switch connector.
Remove switch connector. Using an ohmmeter, test
for continuity (no resistance) between the terminals
of the switch as shown in the following continuity
charts (Fig 2 or 3).
DUAL-FUNCTION SWITCH TESTSÐAG AND AJ BODIES
The dual-function switch contains electrical cir-
cuitry for hazard warning switching, and circuitry
and electronics for turn signal cancellation. The
switch assembly is mounted to the left hand side of
the steering column. To test the hazard warning portion of the switch,
first disconnect the negative battery cable, then re-
move the upper and lower steering column covers to
gain access to the switch connector. Remove switch
connector (Fig. 4). Using an ohmmeter, test for con-
tinuity between the terminals of the switch as shown
in the following continuity chart (Fig. 5). To test the cancellation portion of the switch:
(1) Reconnect battery and switch connector (Fig.
5). (2) Connect voltmeter positive lead (+) to pin 8
and negative lead (-) to ground. (3) Place ignition switch to the ON position. Volt-
meter should read battery voltage. If no voltage is
present, check feed wire to pin 8. If battery voltage is
present continue with switch test.
RIGHT CANCELLATION TEST (1) Connect one side of a jumper wire to pin 3 and
the other end of jumper wire to ground. (2) Connect the positive lead (+) of a voltmeter to
pin 5 and the negative lead (-) to ground.
CAUTION: Do not allow pin 5 to become grounded
during test, switch failure will result.
(3) With the ignition switch in the ON position,
push the cancellation pawl down and read the volt-
meter. (4) The voltmeter should show at least 9 volts. (5) If voltage is 0 to 8 volts the cancellation switch
is defective. If voltage is 9 volts or more the cancel-
lation switch is working correctly.
LEFT CANCELLATION TEST
(1) Connect one side of a jumper wire to pin 4 and
the other end of jumper wire to ground. (2) Connect the positive lead (+) of a voltmeter to
pin 5 and the negative lead (-) to ground.
CAUTION: Do not allow pin 5 to become grounded
during test, switch failure will result.
(3) With the ignition switch in the ON position,
push the cancellation pawl up and read the voltme-
ter. (4) The voltmeter should show at least 9 volts.
(5) If voltage is 0 to 8 volts the cancellation switch
is defective. If voltage is 9 volts or more the cancel-
lation switch is working correctly.
REMOTE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH TESTÐAA AND AJ BODIES
The remote turn signal switch is located on the left
side of the instrument panel switch pod. To test, re-
move switch pod assembly from instrument panel.
Using an ohmmeter, test for continuity between the
terminals of the switch as shown in the following
continuity chart (Fig. 6). The white 7 way connector
next to the 14 way connector must be connected
when performing continuity checks.
CANCELLATION SOLENOID TESTÐAG AND AJ BODIES
To test the turn signal cancellation solenoid:
(1) Remove switch pod from instrument panel.
(2) Connect one end of a jumper wire to the posi-
tive terminal of the battery, the other end to pin 6 of
the turn signal switch 14 way connector. (3) Place turn signal switch in the left turn mode.
(4) Take a second jumper wire and connect one end
to a good ground. Momentarily touch the other end of
the jumper wire to pin 11 or 14. The solenoid should
energize, and return the switch to its center OFF po-
sition. (5) Place turn signal switch in the right turn
mode. (6) Repeat step 4. The solenoid should energize,
and return the switch to its center OFF position. (7) If switch does not return to center in either di-
rection, the switch is defective.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Each vehicle is equipped with lamps used for illumi-
nating and indicating purposes. A circuit must have a
good ground to be complete. Circuit ground occurs
when the lamp socket makes contact with the metal
body. On vehicles with plastic lamps, a wire between
the socket and the body makes the grounds. When changing lamp bulbs, check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean contacts with a
wire brush and coat the inside of the socket with
Mopar tMulti-purpose Grease or equivalent.
CAUTION: Do not touch the glass of halogen bulbs
with fingers or any possibly oily surface, reduced
bulb life will result.
BODY IDENTIFICATION
Throughout this Group, references are made to the
vehicle family or body code. To decode the vehicle
identification plates, refer to the Introduction Section
at the front of this manual.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
