PEDALS - ADJUSTABLE (Continued)

CAUTION
The ABS uses an electronic control module, the
CAB. This module is designed to withstand normal
current draws associated with vehicle operation.
Care must be taken to avoid overloading the CAB
circuits.
CAUTION: In testing for open or short circuits, do
not ground or apply voltage to any of the circuits
unless instructed to do so for a diagnostic proce-
dure.
CAUTION: These circuits should only be tested
using a high impedance multi-meter or the DRBIIIT
scan tool as described in this section. Power
should never be removed or applied to any control
module with the ignition in the ON position. Before
removing or connecting battery cables, fuses, or
connectors, always turn the ignition to the OFF
position.
CAUTION: The CAB 24-way connector should never
be connected or disconnected with the ignition
switch in the ON position.
CAUTION: This vehicle utilizes active wheel speed
sensors. Do not apply voltage to wheel speed sen-
sors at any time.
CAUTION: Use only factory wiring harnesses. Do
not cut or splice wiring to the brake circuits. The
addition of aftermarket electrical equipment (car
phone, radar detector, citizen band radio, trailer
lighting, trailer brakes, etc.) on a vehicle equipped
with antilock brakes may affect the function of the
antilock brake system.
CAUTION: When performing any service procedure
on a vehicle equipped with ABS, do not apply a
12-volt power source to the ground circuit of the
pump motor in the HCU. Doing this will damage the
pump motor and will require replacement of the
entire HCU.
CAUTION: An attempt to remove or disconnect cer-
tain system components may result in improper
system operation. Only those components with
approved removal and installation procedures in
this manual should be serviced.
CAUTION: If welding work is to be performed on the
vehicle using an electric arc welder, the CAB con-nector should be disconnected during the welding
operation.
CAUTION: Many components of the ABS System
are not serviceable and must be replaced as an
assembly. Do not disassemble any component
which is not designed to be serviced.
CAUTION: Only the recommended jacking or hoist-
ing positions for this vehicle are to be used when-
ever it is necessary to lift a vehicle. Failure to raise
a vehicle from the recommended locations could
result in lifting a vehicle by the hydraulic control
unit mounting bracket. Lifting a vehicle by the
hydraulic control unit mounting bracket will result
in damage to the mounting bracket and the hydrau-
lic control unit.
CAUTION: Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces.
If brake fluid is spilled on any painted surface,
wash off with water immediately.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ANTILOCK BRAKE
SYSTEM BLEEDING
The base brake's hydraulic system must be bled
anytime air enters the hydraulic system. The ABS
though, particularly the ICU (HCU), should only be
bled when the HCU is replaced or removed from the
vehicle. The ABS must always be bled anytime it is
suspected that the HCU has ingested air. Under
most circumstances that require the bleeding of the
brakes hydraulic system, only the base brake
hydraulic system needs to be bled.
It is important to note that excessive air in the
brake system will cause a soft or spongy feeling
brake pedal.
During the brake bleeding procedure, be sure the
brake fluid level remains close to the FULL level in
the master cylinder fluid reservoir. Check the fluid
level periodically during the bleeding procedure and
add DOT 3 brake fluid as required.
The ABS must be bled as two independent braking
systems. The non-ABS portion of the brake system
with ABS is to be bled the same as any non-ABS sys-
tem.
The ABS portion of the brake system must be bled
separately. Use the following procedure to properly
bleed the brake hydraulic system including the ABS.
BLEEDING
When bleeding the ABS system, the following
bleeding sequence must be followed to insure com-
plete and adequate bleeding.

DESCRIPTION
An audio system is standard on this model. A rear
seat video system is an available option. Several com-
binations of radio receivers are offered on this model.
The audio/video system uses an ignition switched
source of battery current so that the system will only
operate when the ignition switch is in the RUN or
ACCESSORY/ACCESSORY DELAY positions.
The audio system includes the following compo-
nents:²Amplifier
²Antenna
²CD changer (if equipped)
²DVD player (if equipped)
²Radio noise suppression components
²Radio receiver
²Speakers
²Video screen (if equipped)
Certain functions and features of the audio/video
system rely upon resources shared with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable
Communication Interface (PCI) bus network. The
data bus network allows the sharing of sensor infor-

ANTENNA BODY AND CABLE
DESCRIPTION
Domestic vehicles use a fixed-length stainless steel
rod-type antenna mast, installed at the right front
fender of the vehicle. The antenna mast is connected
to the center wire of the coaxial antenna cable, and is
not grounded to any part of the vehicle.
OPERATION
To minimize static, the antenna base must have a
good ground. The coaxial antenna cable shield (the
outer wire mesh of the cable) is grounded to the
antenna base and the radio chassis.
The antenna coaxial cable has an additional dis-
connect, located near the right end of the instrument
panel. This additional disconnect allows the instru-
ment panel assembly to be removed and installed
without removing the radio.

ANTENNA MODULE - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
The antenna module is an electromagnetic circuit
component designed to capture and enhance RF
(Radio Frequency) signals in both the AM and FM
broadcast bands. The antenna module is mounted to
the right rear roof rail under the headliner. The mod-
ule is grounded through the mounting bracket and
fastener. The module has a two wire electrical con-
nector that connects to the integral radio antenna,located on the right rear quarter glass. There is also
an electrical connector for battery voltage and a coax
cable connector.OPERATION
The antenna module receives both AM and FM
radio signals supplied by the side window integral
radio antenna system and selectively amplifies them.
The amplified signal is then sent through the body
length coax cable to the radio input.
