GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
The Smart Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) is
available factory-installed optional equipment for this
model. Following are some general descriptions of the
features and components of the SKIS. Refer to the
vehicle owner's manual for more information on the
use and operation of the SKIS. Refer to 8W-30 - Fuel/
Ignition System in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for
complete circuit descriptions and diagrams.
SMART KEY IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
The Smart Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) is
designed to provide passive protection against unau-
thorized vehicle use by preventing the engine from
operating while the system is armed. The primary
components of this system are the Smart Key Immo-
bilizer Module (SKIM), the Smart Key transponder,
the SKIS indicator lamp, and the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM), for gasoline engines, and the Body
Control Module (BCM) for diesel engines.
The SKIM is installed on the steering column near
the ignition lock cylinder. The transponder is located
under the molded rubber cap on the head of the igni-
tion key. The SKIS indicator lamp is located in the
instrument cluster.
The SKIS includes two valid Smart Key transpon-
ders from the factory. If the customer wishes, addi-
tional non-coded blank Smart Keys are available.
These blank keys can be cut to match a valid ignition
key, but the engine will not start unless the key tran-
sponder is also programmed to the vehicle. The SKIS
will recognize no more than eight valid Smart Key
transponders at any one time.
The SKIS performs a self-test each time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the On position, and will
store Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) if a systemmalfunction is detected. The SKIS can be diagnosed,
and any stored DTC can be retrieved using a DRB
scan tool as described in the proper Diagnostic Pro-
cedures manual.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SMART KEY IMMOBILIZER MODULE
The Smart Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) con-
tains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a cen-
tral processing unit, which includes the Smart Key
Immobilizer System (SKIS) program logic. The SKIS
programming enables the SKIM to program and
retain in memory the codes of at least two, but no
more than eight electronically coded Smart Key tran-
sponders. The SKIS programming also enables the
SKIM to communicate over the Chrysler Collision
Detection (CCD) data bus network with the Power-
train Control Module (PCM), the instrument cluster
and/or the DRB scan tool.
The SKIM transmits and receives RF signals
through a tuned antenna enclosed within a molded
plastic ring formation that is integral to the SKIM
housing. When the SKIM is properly installed on the
steering column, the antenna ring is oriented around
the circumference of the ignition lock cylinder hous-
ing. This antenna ring must be located within eight
millimeters (0.31 inches) of the Smart Key in order
to ensure proper RF communication between the
SKIM and the Smart Key transponder.
For added system security, each SKIM is pro-
grammed with a unique ªSecret Keyº code and a
security code. The SKIM keeps the ªSecret Keyº code
in memory and sends the code over the CCD data
bus to the PCM, which also keeps this code in its
memory. The SKIM also sends the ªSecret Keyº code
to each of the programmed Smart Key transponders.
The security code is used by the assembly plant to
NS/GSVEHICLE THEFT/SECURITY SYSTEMS 8Q - 1

determine whether a valid key is in the ignition lock
cylinder.
The Smart Key transponder cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
SMART KEY IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM INDICATOR
LAMP
The Smart Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indica-
tor lamp gives an indication when the SKIS is faulty
or when the vehicle has been immobilized due to the
use of an invalid ignition key. The lamp is controlled
by the instrument cluster circuitry based upon mes-
sages received from the Smart Key Immobilizer Mod-
ule (SKIM) on the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD)
data bus.
The SKIM sends messages to the instrument clus-
ter to turn the lamp on for about three seconds when
the ignition switch is turned to the On position as a
bulb test. After completion of the bulb test, the SKIM
sends bus messages to keep the lamp off for a dura-
tion of about one second. Then the SKIM sends mes-
sages to the instrument cluster circuitry to turn the
lamp on or off based upon the results of the SKIS
self-tests. If the SKIS indicator lamp comes on and
stays on after the bulb test, it indicates that the
SKIM has detected a system malfunction and/or that
the SKIS has become inoperative. If the SKIM
detects an invalid key when the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, it sends messages to the
instrument cluster to flash the SKIS indicator lamp.
The SKIM can also send messages to the instru-
ment cluster to flash the lamp and to generate a sin-
gle audible chime tone. These functions serve as an
indication to the customer that the SKIS has been
placed in its ªCustomer Learnº programming mode.
See Smart Key Immobilizer System Transponder Pro-
gramming in this group for more information on the
ªCustomer Learnº programming mode.
The SKIS indicator lamp uses a replaceable incan-
descent bulb and bulb holder on the instrument clus-
ter electronic circuit board. Refer to Group 8E -
Instrument Panel Systems for diagnosis and service
of a faulty SKIS indicator lamp. If the SKIS indicator
lamp comes on and stays on after the bulb test func-
tion, diagnosis of the SKIS should be performed with
a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
SMART KEY IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, REFER TO GROUP 8M - PASSIVE
RESTRAINT SYSTEMS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
STEERING WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN, OR
INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR
SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
NOTE: The following tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
Smart Key Immobilizer System involves the use of a
DRB scan tool. Refer to the proper Diagnostic Pro-
cedures manual for the procedures.
The Smart Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) and the
Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus network
should be diagnosed using a DRB scan tool. The DRB
will allow confirmation that the CCD data bus is
functional, that the Smart Key Immobilizer Module
(SKIM) is placing the proper messages on the CCD
data bus, and that the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) and the instrument cluster are receiving the
CCD data bus messages. Refer to the proper Diag-
nostic Procedures manual for the procedures. Refer
to 8W-30 - Fuel/Ignition System in Group 8W - Wir-
ing Diagrams for complete circuit descriptions and
diagrams.
(1) Check the fuses in the fuseblock module. If OK,
go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or
component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Unplug the wire harness connector at the
SKIM. Check for continuity between the ground cir-
cuit cavity of the SKIM wire harness connector and a
good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to
Step 3. If not OK, repair the open circuit to ground
as required.
(3) Connect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
SKIM wire harness connector. If OK, go to Step 4. If
not OK, repair the open circuit to the fuse in the
fuseblock module as required.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

instrument cluster for 6 seconds after the instrument
cluster receives the message from the Body Control
Module. The seat belt lamp is therefore illuminated
for 6 seconds whenever the ignition switch is moved
to run/start position.
(1) While ignition is off, the seat belt lamp will not
be illuminated.
(2) The ignition power feed status will be updated
every 250 milliseconds or on change.
(3) This lamp will be checked by the instrument
cluster for 6 seconds with every run/start cycle of the
ignition switch.
TURN SIGNAL ON CHIME
The turn signal on chime will warn the driver that
the turn signals have been left on. When the body
control module receives a turn signal input for 6.4
km (4.0 miles), vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h
(15 mph), the chime will sound continuously until the
turn signal is turned OFF. If vehicle speed drops
below 24 km/h (15 mph) prior to the warning being
activated, the accumulated distance traveled will be
reset. The turn signal chime is not activated when
the emergency flashers are turned on. This feature
can also be disabled in EEPROM. Chime rate: 50
chimes per minute.
For the turn signal warning system to operate:
²Must have input from either the right or left
turn signal lamps. Creates a voltage change between
0 and battery voltage.
²The vehicle speed sensor sends a message to the
Powertrain Control Module that vehicle has exceeded
24 km/h (15 mph) for 6.4 km (4.0 miles).
²When the above two conditions are met, the
chime will sound. The chime will stop when no fur-
ther voltage change is detected.²If hazard warning signals are pulsing, no chime
will sound.
²If speed drops below 24 km/h (15 mph) before
the warning is issued, the warning will not be issued
and the distance counter will be reset.
²If turn signal lamps are not working properly,
the chime will not sound.
²When using the scan tool, refer to the proper
Body Diagnostic Manual for the procedure.
WARNING LAMP ANNOUNCEMENT CHIME
The warning lamp announcement chime will warn
the driver to scan the instrument cluster to observe
which warning lamp is illuminated. Whenever the
volts, low fuel, low washer/coolant level, door ajar or
gate ajar lamps are first illuminated, the chime will
sound one tone. The door/liftgate ajar warning lamp
announcement chime sounds only if the vehicle speed
is above 2 m.p.h.
Two seconds after ignition switch is turned ON or
until the seat belt warning chime ends, all warning
announcement chimes will be consolidated into one
warning announcement. This will occur 2 seconds
after the seat belt warning chime ends. If a warning
announcement should occur while another warning
chime in progress (turn signal, low oil pressure or
high speed warnings), no additional chimes will
sound after the chime in progress ends. All associ-
ated lamps will be illuminated, and the active chime
will be the warning announcement.
NSCHIME WARNING/REMINDER SYSTEM 8U - 3
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)

SEAT BELT CHIME
The seat belt chime will sound for 4 to 8 seconds,
when the ignition is turned on and the driver's seat
belt is not buckled (seat belt switch is closed to
ground). This is a reminder to the driver to buckle
the seat belt. The seat belt lamp is controlled by the
mechanical instrument cluster. The cluster will also
illuminate the seat belt warning lamp for 6 seconds.
Buckling the driver's seat belt before the time out
has expired will cause the chime to stop immediately.
Chime rate: 38 to 62 chimes per minute.
To test the seat belt warning system, the ignition
switch must be in the OFF position for 1 minute
before starting the test. Turn the ignition switch to
the on position with the driver's seat belt not buck-
led. The seat belt warning lamp should light and the
chime should sound 4 to 8 seconds.
SEAT BELT LAMP
The seat belt lamp in the instrument cluster sig-
nals the vehicle passengers to fasten their seat belts.
The seat belt lamp is illuminated directly by the
instrument cluster for 6 seconds after the instrument
cluster receives the message from the Body Control
Module. The seat belt lamp is therefore illuminated
for 6 seconds whenever the ignition switch is moved
to run/start position.
(1) While ignition is off, the seat belt lamp will not
be illuminated.
(2) The ignition power feed status will be updated
every 250 milliseconds or on change.
(3) This lamp will be checked by the instrument
cluster for 6 seconds with every run/start cycle of the
ignition switch.
TURN SIGNAL ON CHIME
The turn signal on chime will warn the driver that
the turn signals have been left on. When the Body
Control Module receives a turn signal input for 1.6
km (1.0 miles), vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h
(15 mph), the chime will sound continuously until the
turn signal is turned OFF. If vehicle speed drops
below 24 km/h (15 mph) prior to the warning being
activated, the accumulated distance traveled will be
reset. The turn signal chime is not activated whenthe emergency flashers are turned on. This feature
can also be disabled in EEPROM. Chime rate: 38 to
62 chimes per minute.
For the turn signal warning system to operate:
²Must have input from either the right or left
turn signal lamps. Creates a voltage change between
0 and battery voltage.
²The vehicle speed sensor sends a message to the
Powertrain Control Module that vehicle has exceeded
24 km/h (15 mph) for 1.6 km (1.0 miles).
²When the above two conditions are met, the
chime will sound. The chime will stop when no fur-
ther voltage change is detected.
²If hazard warning signals are pulsing, no chime
will sound.
²If speed drops below 24 km/h (15 mph) before
the warning is issued, the warning will not be issued
and the distance counter will be reset.
²If turn signal lamps are not working properly,
the chime will not sound.
²When using the scan tool, refer to the proper
Body Diagnostic Manual for the procedure.
WARNING LAMP ANNOUNCEMENT CHIME
The warning lamp announcement chime will warn
the driver to scan the instrument cluster to observe
which warning lamp is illuminated. Whenever the
volts, low fuel, low washer fluid, coolant level (gas/
diesel), low coolant level, engine temperature high
(diesel only), door ajar or gate ajar lamps are first
illuminated, the chime will sound one tone. The door/
liftgate ajar warning lamp announcement chime
sounds only if the vehicle speed is above 2 m.p.h.
Two seconds after ignition switch is turned ON or
until the seat belt warning chime ends, all warning
announcement chimes will be consolidated into one
warning announcement. This will occur 2 seconds
after the seat belt warning chime ends. If a warning
announcement should occur while another warning
chime in progress (turn signal, low oil pressure or
high speed warnings), no additional chimes will
sound after the chime in progress ends. All associ-
ated lamps will be illuminated, and the active chime
will be the warning announcement.
