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.

GENERAL INFORMATION
JUMP-STARTING, VEHICLE EQUIPPED
WITH THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM . After the
booster battery has been connected, the Theft System
must be turned OFF. Using the key, lock then un-
lock either front door. This turns the Theft System
OFF and the remainder of the Jump-Starting proce-
dure can be followed. If this procedure is not followed, the Theft System
electronics will prevent the engine from starting. If a new Powertrain Control Module is installed,
the engine has to be cranked 20 times before the
alarm system activated. This passive system is designed to protect against
whole vehicle theft. The system monitors vehicle
doors, hood, trunk key cylinder, and ignition action
for unauthorized operation. The alarm activates by
sounding the horn, flashing the park and tail lamps,
and providing an engine kill feature (Fig. 1). Passive arming occurs upon normal vehicle exit,
open door, lock with power locks, close door. The SET
lamp in the panel will flash for 15 seconds, indicat-
ing that arming is in progress. If no monitored sys-
tems are activated during this period, the system
will arm. If the hood or trunk key cylinder switches
are not sensed by the system. The SET lamp will re-
main lit during the arming process, although the sys-
tem will still arm. The system is to be considered as
an active armed system when using the Remote Key-
less Entry. If the SET lamp does not illuminate at all
upon door closing it indicates that the system is not
arming. Passive disarming occurs upon normal vehicle en-
try unlocking either door with the key, or unlocking
using the Remote Keyless transmitter. This disarm-
ing will also halt the alarm once it has been acti-
vated. Whenever the battery is disconnected and recon-
nected, the Vehicle Theft Security System enters
power up alarm mode which flashes the park and tail
lamps and prevents the engine from running. To exit
this mode, the system must be disarmed as men-
tioned above. A tamper alert exists to notify the driver that the
alarm had been activated, and the alarm has since
timed-out for more than 18 minutes. This alert con-
sists of 3 horn pulses when the vehicle is disarmed. The alarm system will not arm if the doors are
manually locked, providing a manual override of the
alarm.
WHAT WILL TRIGGER THE SYSTEM
One of the following actions will trigger the system
while it is armed. Without properly disarming sys-
tem, by using the key or the remote transmitter. (1) Opening the HOOD.
(2) Opening any DOOR.
(3) Removing the TRUNK KEY CYLINDER.
(4) Turning the IGNITION ON.
(5) The ignition switch can be turned to the acces-
sory position without triggering alarm system.
SYSTEM SELF-TESTS
A diagnostics mode is available in the system to
verify operation of all monitored switches or circuits.
To enter diagnostics, cycle the ignition key to the ac-
cessory position 3 times, leaving the key in this po-
sition. Upon entering diagnostics, the park and tail lamps
will begin flashing to verify their operation. In addi-
tion, the horn will sound twice to indicate that the
trunk key cylinder is in its proper position. Return-
ing the ignition to the OFF position will stop the
lamps from flashing while keeping the system in di-
agnostics. While in diagnostics mode, a horn pulse should oc-
cur at each of the following events indicating proper
operation: (1) Beginning with all doors closed, open then close
each door. The horn will sound when the door ajar
switch closes, and then again when the switch opens.
There must b e a 1 second delay between closing and
opening the switch. (2) Open, then close the hood. The horn will sound
when the hood is opened, and again when it is closed.
Ä VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM 8Q - 1

(3) Activate the power door locks in both the
LOCK and UNLOCK directions. The horn will sound
after each activation. (4) Rotate the key in each of the door lock cylin-
ders to the unlock position. The horn will sound as
the switch closes, and again when it opens. There
must b e a 1 second delay between changing switch
states, or the horn will not sound.
² Press the LOCK button,horn will sound.
² Press the UNLOCK button, horn will sound.
(5) Cycle the key to the ignition RUN position. A
single horn pulse will indicate proper operation of
the ignition input. This will also take the module out
of the diagnostics mode. For any of these tests, if the
switch does not remain open or closed for at least 1
second, the horn will only sound once. The lack of a horn pulse, during any operation, in-
dicates a switch failure. Check for continuity at the
switch, if this is good, check for an open or shorted
wire between the switch and alarm module. Also,
check if a new powertrain control module has been
installed recently. Vehicle Theft Security System will
not function until 20 engine cranks. Whenever a Vehicle Theft Security System mal-
function occurs, first verify that the wire harness is
properly connected to all connectors before starting
normal diagnosis and repair procedures. Refer to Ve-
hicle Theft Security System Diagnosis Chart (Fig. 3).VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM MODULE

Ä FUEL SYSTEMS 14 - 53

During cranking, before the engine starts running,
the PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from
the MAP sensor voltage. While the engine operates,
the PCM determines intake manifold pressure and
barometric pressure from the MAP sensor voltage.
Based on MAP sensor voltage and inputs from other
sensors, the PCM adjusts spark advance, air/fuel
mixture and controls the turbocharger wastegate. The MAP sensor (Fig. 12) mounts underhood on
the right side of the engine compartment. The sensor
connects electrically to the PCM.
HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (O2SENSOR)ÐPCM
INPUT
The O2sensor is located in the turbocharger outlet
and provides an input voltage to the PCM (Fig. 13).
The input tells the PCM the oxygen content of the
exhaust gas. The PCM uses this information to fine
tune the air-fuel ratio by adjusting injector pulse
width. The O
2sensor produces voltages from 0 to 1 volt,
depending upon the oxygen content of the exhaust
gas in the exhaust manifold. When a large amount of oxygen is present (caused by a lean air-fuel mixture),
the sensor produces a low voltage. When there is a
lesser amount present (rich air-fuel mixture) it pro-
duces a higher voltage. By monitoring the oxygen
content and converting it to electrical voltage, the
sensor acts as a rich-lean switch. The oxygen sensor is equipped with a heating ele-
ment that keeps the sensor at proper operating tem-
perature during all operating modes. Maintaining
correct sensor temperature at all times allows the
system to enter into closed loop operation sooner.
Also, it allows the system to remain in closed loop
operation during periods of extended idle. In Closed Loop operation the PCM monitors the O
2
sensor input (along with other inputs) and adjusts
the injector pulse width accordingly. During Open
Loop operation the PCM ignores the O
2sensor input.
The PCM adjusts injector pulse width based on pre-
programmed (fixed) values and inputs from other
sensors.
SPEED CONTROLÐPCM INPUT
The speed control system provides four separate
voltages (inputs) to the PCM. The voltages corre-
spond to the On/Off, Set, and Resume. The speed control ON voltage informs the PCM
that the speed control system has been activated.
The speed control SET voltage informs the PCM that
a fixed vehicle speed has been selected. The speed
control RESUME voltage indicates the previous fixed
speed is requested. The speed control OFF voltage
tells the PCM that the speed control system has de-
activated. Refer to Group 8H for further speed con-
trol information.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TPS)ÐPCM INPUT
The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is mounted on
the throttle body and connected to the throttle blade
shaft (Fig. 14). The TPS is a variable resistor that
provides the PCM with an input signal (voltage) rep-
