COOLANT RECOVERY
CONTAINER
DESCRIPTION
The coolant recovery/reserve system container is
mounted in the engine compartment (Fig. 2). The
container is made of plastic.
OPERATION
The coolant recovery system works with the radia-
tor pressure cap to use thermal expansion and con-
traction of the coolant to keep the coolant free of
trapped air. Provides a convenient and safe method
for checking coolant level and adjusting level at
atmospheric pressure without removing the radiator
pressure cap. It also provides reserve coolant to cover
deaeration, evaporation, or boiling losses.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COOLANT
RECOVERY SYSTEM
The cooling system is closed and designed to main-
tain coolant level to the top of the radiator.
(1) With the engineoffand cooling systemnot
under pressure, drain several ounces of coolant from
the radiator draincock while observing the coolant
recovery container. Coolant level in the container
should drop.
(2) Remove the radiator pressure cap. The coolant
level should be full to the top radiator neck. If not,
and the coolant level in the container is at or above
the MIN mark, there is an air leak in the coolant
recovery system.
(3) Check hose and hose connections to the con-
tainer, radiator filler neck or the pressure cap seal to
the radiator filler neck for leaks.
REMOVAL
(1) Raise the vehicle on hoist.
(2) Remove the lower attaching screws (Fig. 2).
(3) Lower the vehicle.
(4) Remove the upper attaching screw (Fig. 2).
(5) Disconnect recovery hose from container (Fig.
2).
(6) Remove the recovery container.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect the recovery hose to container (Fig. 2).
(2) Position the recovery container on the frame
rail (Fig. 2).
(3) Install the upper attaching screw and tighten
to 7 N´m (60 in. lbs.) (Fig. 2).
(4) Raise the vehicle on hoist.
(5) Install the lower attaching screws and tighten
to 8.5 N´m (75 in. lbs.) (Fig. 2).
(6) Lower the vehicle.(7) Add coolant to container as necessary. (Refer to
7 - COOLING - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
DESCRIPTION
The engine block heater is available as an optional
accessory on all models. The heater is operated by
ordinary house current (110 Volt A.C.) through a
power cord located behind the radiator grille. This
provides easier engine starting and faster warm-up
when vehicle is operated in areas having extremely
low temperatures. The heater is mounted in a core
hole (in place of a core hole plug) in the engine block,
with the heating element immersed in coolant.
OPERATION
The block heater element is submerged in the cool-
ing system's coolant. When electrical power (110 volt
A.C.) is applied to the element, it creates heat. This
heat is transferred to the engine coolant. This pro-
vides easier engine starting and faster warm-up
when vehicle is operated in areas having extremely
low temperatures.

ENGINE COOLANT
THERMOSTAT
DESCRIPTION
The engine cooling thermostats are a wax pellet
driven, reverse poppet choke type. The thermostat is
mounted in a housing on the coolant outlet of the
engine (Fig. 8) or (Fig. 10).
OPERATION
The engine cooling thermostat is a wax pellet
driven, reverse poppet choke type. The thermostat is
designed to provide the fastest warm up possible by
preventing leakage through it and to guarantee a
minimum engine operating temperature of 88 to
93ÉC (192 to 199ÉF). The thermostat also will auto-
matically reach wide open so it will not restrict flow
to the radiator as temperature of the coolant rises in
hot weather to around 104ÉC (220ÉF). Above this
temperature the coolant temperature is controlled by
the radiator, fan, and ambient temperature, not the
thermostat.
The thermostat is operated by a wax filled con-
tainer (pellet) which is sealed. When heated coolant
reaches a predetermined temperature, the wax
expands enough to overcome the closing spring and
water pump pressure, which forces the valve to open.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE COOLANT
THERMOSTAT
The thermostat is operated by a wax filled cham-
ber (pellet) which is sealed. When heated coolant
reaches a predetermined temperature the wax pellet
expands enough to overcome the closing spring and
water pump pressure, which forces the valve to open.
Coolant leakage into the pellet will cause a thermo-
stat to fail open. Do not attempt to free up a thermo-
stat with a screwdriver.
Thermostat diagnostics is included in powertrain
control module's (PCM) programing for on-board
diagnosis. The malfunction indicator light (MIL) will
illuminate and a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) will
be set when an ªopen too soonº condition occurs. Do
not change a thermostat for lack of heater perfor-
mance or temperature gauge position, unless a DTC
is present. For other probable causes, (Refer to 7 -
COOLING/ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
Thermostat failing shut is the normal long term
mode of failure, and normally, only on high mileage
vehicles. The temperature gauge will indicate this

FRONT CONTROL MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Front Control Module (FCM) is a micro con-
troller based module located in the engine compart-
ment. The FCM mates to the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) to form the Integrated Power Module
(IPM). The IPM connects directly to the battery and
provides the primary means of circuit protection and
power distribution for all vehicle electrical systems.
The FCM controls power to some of these vehicle sys-
tems electrical and electromechanical loads based on
inputs received from hard wired switch inputs and
data received on the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus.
For information on the IPM, (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/POWER DISTRIBUTION/INTEGRATED
POWER MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
OPERATION
As messages are sent over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus, the Front Con-
trol Module (FCM) reads these messages and controls
power to some of the vehicles electrical systems by
completing the circuit to ground (low side driver) or
completing the circuit to 12 volt power (high side
driver).

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
FRONT CONTROL MODULE
The Front Control Module (FCM) is a printed cir-
cuit board based module with a on-board micro-pro-
cessor. The FCM interfaces with other electronic
modules in the vehicle via the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus. In order to
obtain conclusive testing the PCI data bus and all of
the electronic modules that provide inputs to, or
receive outputs from the FCM must be checked. All
PCI communication faults must be resolved prior to
further diagnosing any front control module related
issues.
The FCM was designed to be diagnosed with an
appropriate diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB
IIIt. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means
to diagnose the front control module requires the use
of a DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Body Diag-
nostic Procedures manual.
Before any testing of the FCM is attempted, the
battery should be fully charged and all wire harness
and ground connections inspected around the affected
areas on the vehicle.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative and posi-
tive battery cables from the battery.
(2) Remove the battery (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/BATTERY SYSTEM/BATTERY - REMOVAL).
(3) Using a long flat-bladed screwdriver, gently
twist the Integrated Power Module (IPM) retaining
clip outboard to free the IPM from its mounting
bracket (Fig. 5). Rotate IPM upward to access the
Front Control Module (FCM) retaining screws.
(4) Remove the front control module retaining
screws.
(5) Pull the FCM straight from the IPM assembly
to disconnect the electrical connector (Fig. 6) and
remove the FCM from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Front Control Module must be programmed
to the correct radio EQ curve using the DRB IIIT.
This will ensure that the audio system is operating
correctly.
(1) Install the Front Control Module (FCM) in the
Integrated Power Module (IPM) assembly by pushing
the 49-way electrical connector straight in.

HEATED GLASS
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: Grid lines can be damaged or scraped
off with sharp instruments. Care should be taken in
cleaning glass or removing foreign materials,
decals or stickers. Normal glass cleaning solvents
or hot water used with rags or toweling is recom-
mended.
The rear window defogger system, also known as
electrical backlight (EBL), consists of two vertical bus
bars linked by a series of grid lines fired onto the
inside surface of the rear window (Fig. 1).
The EBL system is turned ON or OFF by a control
switch located on the A/C-heater control at the center
of the instrument panel and by a rear window defog-
ger relay timing circuit integral to the integrated
power module (IPM) (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED GLASS/REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
SWITCH - DESCRIPTION).
Circuit protection is provided by a 40 amp fuse
located in the IPM.
Fig. 1 Rear Window Defogger - Typical
1 - REAR DEFOGGER GRID
2 - REAR WINDOW
RSHEATED SYSTEMS8G-1

OPERATION
When the rear window defogger button is
depressed to the On position, current is directed to
the rear defogger grid lines and the heated power
mirrors (if equipped). The heated grid lines heat the
glass to help clear the rear window and side mirror
surfaces of fog or frost.
The electric backlight (EBL) system is controlled
by a momentary switch located in the A/C-heater
control on the instrument panel. A yellow indicator in
the switch will illuminate to indicate when the sys-
tem is turned on. The integrated power module (IPM)
contains the EBL system control circuitry.
NOTE: The rear window defogger turns off automat-
ically after approximately 10 minutes of initial oper-
ation. Each following activation cycle of the
defogger system will last approximately five min-
utes.
The EBL system will be automatically turned off
after a programmed time interval of about ten min-
utes. After the initial time interval has expired, if the
defogger switch is turned on again during the same
ignition cycle, the defogger system will automatically
turn off after about five minutes.
The EBL system will automatically shut off if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, or it can
be turned off manually by depressing the defogger
switch a second time.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
ELECTRIC BACKLIGHT (EBL) SYSTEM
NOTE: Illumination of the defogger switch indicator
lamp means that there is electrical current available
at the output of the rear window defogger logic cir-
cuitry, but does not confirm that the electrical cur-
rent is reaching the rear glass heating grid lines.
NOTE: For circuit descriptions and diagrams of the
rear window defogger system, refer to 8W - WIRING
DIAGRAM INFORMATION.
Operation of the electrical backlight (EBL) system
can be confirmed by the following:(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. Set
the defogger switch in the On position. The rear win-
dow defogger operation can be checked by feeling the
rear window glass. A distinct difference in tempera-
ture between the grid lines and the adjacent clear
glass can be detected within three to four minutes of
operation.
(2) If a temperature difference is not detected, use
a 12-volt DC voltmeter and contact the rear glass
heating grid terminal B with the negative lead, and
terminal A with the positive lead (Fig. 2). The volt-
meter should read battery voltage. If the voltmeter
does not read battery voltage, check the following:
²Confirm that the ignition switch is in the On
position.
²Make sure that the rear glass heating grid feed
wire and ground wire are connected to the terminals.
Confirm that the ground wire has continuity to
ground.
²Check that fuse 13 (40 amp) in the integrated
power module (IPM) is OK. The fuse must be tight in
it's receptacle and all electrical connections must be
secure.
(3) When the above steps have been completed and
the rear glass heating grid is still inoperative, one or
more of the following is faulty. It may be necessary to
connect a DRBIIItscan tool to perform further diag-
nostics. Refer to Body Diagnostic Procedures.
²Rear window defogger switch in the A/C-heater
control.
²J1850 bus communication between the A/C-
heater control and the front control module (FCM).
²Rear window defogger (EBL) relay in the IPM.
²Rear window defogger (EBL) relay control circu-
ity in the IPM.
²Check for a loose wire connector or a wire
pushed out of a connector.
²Rear window grid lines (all grid lines would
have to be broken, or the power feed or ground wire
not connected, for the entire heating grid to be inop-
erative).
(4) If the system operation has been verified but
defogger switch LED indicator does not illuminate,
replace the A/C-heater control.

REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The switch for the EBL system is integrated into
the A/C-heater control located in the center of the
instrument panel (Fig. 5).
When the rear window defogger switch is turned to
the ON position, current is directed to the rear defog-
ger grid lines and the heated power mirrors (if
equipped). The heated grid lines heat the glass to
help clear the surface of fog or frost.
OPERATION
Depressing the rear window defogger switch ener-
gizes the A/C-heater control module which then
requests the front control module (FCM) to activate
the rear window defogger (EBL) relay via the com-
munication bus. The EBL relay controls the current
to flow to the grids of the rear window defogger and
the heated power side view mirrors. The EBL relay
will be on for approximately 10 minutes or until the
control switch or ignition is turned off. An amber
indicator lamp in the defogger switch illuminates to
indicate when the EBL system is On.
The rear window defogger switch and indicator
lamp cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged,
the entire A/C-heater control must be replaced.

HEATED MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
The optional heated mirror system is controlled by
the momentary rear window defogger switch which is
integral to the A/C-heater control (Fig. 1). An amber
indicator lamp in the switch will illuminate to indi-
cate when the rear window defogger (EBL) system is
turned on.
The heated mirror system only operates in concert
with the EBL system, and will be automatically shut
off after a programmed time interval of about 10
minutes. After the initial time interval has expired, if
the defogger switch is turned on again during the
same ignition cycle, the heated mirror system will
automatically shut off after about 5 minutes.
The heated mirror system will automatically shut
off if the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
or it can be shut off manually by pressing the rear
window defogger switch a second time.
OPERATION
When the rear window defogger switch is pressed,
the rear window defogger (EBL) system becomes acti-
vated and an electric heater grid located behind the
glass of each of the outside rear view mirrors is ener-
gized. When energized, each of these heater grids
produce heat to help clear the outside rear view mir-
rors of ice, snow, or fog.If the outside mirror heating grids are both inoper-
ative, refer to DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR
WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM in his group. If
only one of the outside mirror heating grids is inop-
erative, Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIR-
RORS - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING.
The heating grid behind each outside mirror glass
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
entire power mirror assembly must be replaced.
