GENERAL INFORMATION
INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS
There are three instrument cluster assemblies. The
mechanical clusters incorporate magnetic type
gauges. The electronic instrument cluster incorpo-
rates, a digital speedometer/odometer and electronic
analog gauges. The mechanical Lo-Line instrument cluster has
magnetic type gauges for coolant temperature, fuel
level and charging system voltage (Fig. 1).
The mechanical Hi-Line instrument cluster has
magnetic type gauges for oil pressure, coolant tem-
perature, charging system voltage and fuel level. The
premium instrument cluster also has a tachometer
(Fig. 2). If the ignition switch is in the OFF position each
gauge will show a reading, except for the volt gauge. However the readings are only accurate when the ig-
nition switch is in the ON position.
TACHOMETER DRIVE MODULE
The tachometer drive module is an electronic mod-
ule used to drive a magnetic tachometer in a conven-
tional instrument cluster.
ELECTRONIC DIGITAL CLOCK
The electronic digital clock is in the radio. The
clock and radio each use the display panel built into
the radio. A digital readout indicates the time in
hours and minutes whenever the ignition switch is in
the ON or ACC position. When the ignition switch is in the OFF position, or
when the radio frequency is being displayed, time
keeping is accurately maintained.
MESSAGE CENTER
The message center includes the graphic display of
the car with illuminating graphics for: low wind-

GENERAL INFORMATION
MECHANICAL CLUSTER
The mechanical cluster includes a fuel, oil pres-
sure, coolant temperature, and voltmeter gauges. All
incorporate magnetic type gauges. When the ignition
switch is in the OFF position, the gauges will show a
reading; however, the readings are only accurate
when the ignition switch is in the ON position. The mechanical cluster also includes an electric
speedometer, driven by pulses from the vehicle speed
sensor (Fig. 1).
ELECTRONIC CLUSTER
The electronic cluster is easily distinguished from
the mechanical cluster by its digital and linear dis-
play. The electronic cluster includes:
² Oil pressure gauge
² Coolant temperature gauge
² Voltmeter
² Fuel gauge
The electronic cluster receives virtually all of its
information to display from the body controller and
powertrain control module via the Chrysler Collision
Detection (CCD) Serial Data Bus. The odometer
memory is no longer retained in the cluster. This is
now retained in the body controller (Fig. 2).
ELECTRONIC CLUSTER DIMMING
The electronic cluster display is dimmed from day-
time to night time intensity when the headlamp
switch is turned on. This intensity can be controlled
using the headlamp switch rheostat. An additional detent on the headlamp switch rheo-
stat will allow daytime intensity while driving with
headlamps on during the daytime.
WARNING LAMPS
The mechanical instrument cluster will have warn-
ing lamps for six systems. These include brake sys-
tem, air bag, seat belt, low fuel, anti-lock for optional
anti-lock brake system, and malfunction indicator
(check engine) lamp. The cluster also includes check
gages indicator which will illuminate in a warning
situation. This will notify driver to check for a prob-
lem in coolant temperature, oil pressure, or electrical
systems. The electronic cluster will have warning indicator
lamps for eight different systems. These include:
² Air Bag
² Low washer fluid
² Door/deck lid ajar
² Malfunction Indicator (Check engine) Lamp
² Brake system
² Seat belt
² Anti-lock (ABS) for optional anti-lock brake sys-
tem
² Check gages, monitors engine coolant, oil pressure
and electrical charging system failures. In addition, ISO symbol will flash to notify the
driver in event of:
² Low fuel
² High temperature
² Low oil pressure
² Charging system failure

Electronic vehicle speed control may be tested us-
ing two different methods. One involves use of a
DRB II. If this test method is desired, refer to the
Powertrain Diagnostic Test Procedures for charging
and vehicle speed control manual. The other test method uses a volt/ohm meter and is
described in the following tests. If any information is needed concerning wiring, re-
fer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
CAUTION: When test probing for voltage or conti-
nuity at electrical connectors, care must be taken
not to damage connector, terminals, or seals. If
these components are damaged, intermittent or
complete system failure may occur.

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
Begin electrical system failure diagnosis by testing
all related fuses and circuit breakers in the fuse block
and engine compartment. When a vehicle experiences problems with the head-
lamp system, verify the condition of the battery con-
nections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire con-
nectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and headlamp
switch. Refer to Wiring Diagrams manual for compo-
nent locations and circuit information.

GENERAL INFORMATION .................. 1REPAIR GRID LINES, TERMINALS AND PIGTAILS.3
SERVICE PROCEDURES ................... 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
For proper operation of the Rear Window Defogger
system refer to the Owner's Manual. Vehicles equipped with an electrically heated rear
window defogger also have a 40/90 amp generator. The system consists of a rear glass with two verti-
cal bus bars and a series of electrically connected
grid lines fired on the inside surface. A control
switch and a timer relay combined into a single as-
sembly is used on all models (Fig.1).
Circuit protection is provided by a fusible link, lo-
cated in the charging circuit, for the heated grid cir-
cuit and by a fuse for the relay control circuit. When the switch is turned to the ON position, cur-
rent is directed to the rear defogger grid lines. The
heated grid lines heat the rear glass to clear the sur-
face of fog or frost.
CAUTION: Grid lines can be damaged or scraped
off with sharp instruments, care should be taken in
cleaning glass or removing foreign materials, de-
cals or stickers. Normal glass cleaning solvents or
hot water used with rags or toweling is recom-
mended.
CONTROL SWITCH/TIMER RELAY MODULE
The control switch and timer relay are integrated
into a single panel or console mounted assembly. Ac-
tuating the switch energizes the circuit which allows
current to flow through the grid lines. Upon initial
actuation for approximately ten minutes, or until ei-
ther the switch or ignition is turned off. An indicat-
ing lamp illuminates a lens inlaid in the control
switch.
SERVICE PROCEDURES
Electrically heated rear window defogger operation
can be checked in vehicle in the following manner: (1) Turn ignition ON.
(2) Turn rear window defogger control switch ON.
(3) Using a ammeter on the battery. Turn the De-
fogger control switch ON, a distinct increase in am-
perage draw should be noted. (4) The rear window defogger operation can be
checked by feeling the glass. A distinct difference in
temperature between the grid lines and adjacent
clear glass can be detected in three to four minutes
of operation. (5) Using a DC voltmeter (Fig. 2) contact terminal
B with the negative lead, and terminal A with the
positive lead. The voltmeter should read 10-14 volts.

is non-standard the main wire color will have a slash
(/) after it followed by the tracer color.
CIRCUIT IDENTIFICATION
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric
code to identify the wire and its function. To identify
which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the
Circuit Identification Code Chart. This chart shows
the main circuits only and does not show the second-
ary codes that may apply to some models.
LOCATING A SYSTEM
To locate a system or component in the diagrams,
refer to the alphabetical index at the front of the di-
agrams. Determine the diagram sheet number. Sheet
numbers are located at the lower right or left hand
corner of each sheet. Page numbers at the top of
the page do not apply to diagram sheets. The diagram index identifies the main system and
all components in that system. There are also sec-
tions of the index that identify specific components
only (for example modules, lamps, etc.). Refer to a
components name in the index if you are unclear as
to what a system may be called. Diagram pages are arranged starting with the bat-
tery and fuses. Then working into charging, starting,
and ignition systems. After this they start at the
front of the vehicle and work to rear of the vehicle.
The diagrams end with connector identification
pages.
COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
When looking for a components location on the ve-
hicle refer to the wiring and components section.
This section shows the wire harness routing and the
components location in the vehicle. To use this sec-
tion refer to the wiring diagrams for the location of
the component. Then use the component identifica-
tion index to locate the proper figure number.
SPLICE LOCATIONS
Splices are indicated in the diagrams by a diamond
with a splice circuit code within it (Fig. 9 example 1).
If there is more than one splice per circuit a small
box will be connected to it with the splice number in
it (Fig. 9 example 2). To locate a splice in the wiring harness determine
the splice number from the wiring diagrams then re-
fer to the splice location index. This section shows
the general location of the splice in the harness.
