DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
IGNITION INTERLOCK
All vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles
have an interlock system. The system prevents shift-
ing the vehicle out of Park unless the ignition lock
cylinder is in the Off, Run or Start position. In addi-
tion, the operator cannot rotate the key to the lock
position unless the shifter is in the park position. On
vehicles equipped with floor shift refer to Group 21 -
Transaxle for Automatic Transmission Shifter/Igni-
tion Interlock.
LOCK KEY CYLINDER
The lock cylinder is inserted in the end of the
housing opposite the ignition switch. The ignition key
rotates the cylinder to 5 different detents (Fig. 1):
²Accessory
²Off (lock)
²Unlock
²On/Run
²Start
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
IGNITION SWITCH
The ignition switch attaches to the lock cylinder
housing on the end opposite the lock cylinder (Fig. 2).
For ignition switch terminal and circuit identifica-
tion, refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.

(Fig. 3).
(3) Remove screws holding steering column
shrouds (Fig. 5) and remove lower shroud.
(4) Place key cylinder in RUN position. Depress
lock cylinder retaining tab and remove key cylinder
(Fig. 6).
INSTALLATION
(1) Install key in lock cylinder. Turn key to run
position (retaining tab on lock cylinder can be
depressed).
(2) The shaft at the end of the lock cylinder aligns
with the socket in the end of the housing. To align
the socket with the lock cylinder, ensure the socket is
in the Run position (Fig. 12).
(3) Align the lock cylinder with the grooves in the
housing. Slide the lock cylinder into the housing
until the tab sticks through the opening in the hous-
ing.
(4) Turn the key to the Off position. Remove the
key.
(5) Install lower steering column shroud.
(6) Install steering column cover.(7) Connect negative cable to battery.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
NS vehicle instrument clusters are equipped with a
self diagnostic test feature to help identify electronic
problems. Prior to any test, perform Self Diagnostic
Test. The self diagnostic system monitors the CCD
bus messages. If an electronic problem occurs, a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be displayed in
the odometer window of the cluster.
The following CCD bus messages are continuously
monitored by the diagnostic system:
²Body Control Module
²Powertrain Control Module
²Transmission Control Module, if equipped
HEADLAMP SWITCH
Using a Digital Multimeter, equipped with a diode
test to perform the Headlamp Switch Test below (Fig.
1).
Switch position possibilities are open (no continu-
ity), continuity, resistance value in ohms, or diode
test. Use the values in the third column to determine
meter setting. If Headlamp Switch is not within spec-
ifications replace as necessary.
The Chrysler Town and Country is available with
optional Automatic Headlamps. For diagnosis, refer
to the proper Body Diagnostic Procedures Manual.
SELF DIAGNOSTIC TEST
To activate self diagnostic program:
(1) With the ignition switch in the OFF position,
depress the TRIP and RESET buttons.
(2) While holding the TRIP and RESET button
turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Continue to hold the TRIP and RESET buttons
until the word CODE appears in the odometer win-
dows (about five seconds) then release the buttons. If
a problem exists, the system will display Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTC's). If no problem exists, the code
999 (End Test) will momentarily appear.
DIM TEST
When CHEC-0 is displayed in the odometer win-
dow, the cluster's vacuum fluorescent (VF) displayswill dim down. If the VF display brightness does no
change, a problem exists in the cluster.

CALIBRATION TEST
When CHEC-1 is displayed in the odometer win-
dow, each of the cluster's gauge pointers will move
sequentially through each calibration point. The Cal-
ibration Table contains the proper calibration points
for each gauge. If the gauge pointers are not cali-
brated, a problem exists in the cluster. If any gauge
is out of calibration it will have to be calibrated using
a scan tool (DRB III). Refer to the proper Body Diag-
nostic Procedure Manual for calibration procedures.
ODOMETER SEGMENT TEST
When CHEC-2 is displayed in the odometer win-
dow, each digit of the odometer will illuminate
sequentially. If a segment in the odometer does not
illuminate normally, a problem exists in the display.
ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION RANGE
INDICATOR SEGMENT TEST
When CHEC-3 is displayed in the odometer win-
dow, each segment of the transmission range indica-
tor will illuminate sequentially. If a segment in the
transmission range indicator does not illuminate nor-
mally, a problem exists in the display board.
