SERVICE PROCEDURES
CLEANUP PROCEDURE
Roll or fold the passenger airbag towards the
instrument panel surface and close the door over the
folded bag. Then tape the door shut.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual pow-
der from the vehicle interior. Work from the outside
in to avoid kneeling or sitting in a contaminated
area. Vacuum the heater and A/C outlets as well (Fig.
2). If HVAC was in RECIRC mode at time of airbag
deployment, operate HVAC blower on low speed/heat
and vacuum powder residue expelled from the heat
outlets. Multiple vacuum cleaning may to necessary
to decontaminate the interior of the vehicle.
NOTE: Dispose deployed airbag properly, contact
dealer or government agency for disposal recom-
mendations.
SERVICE OF DEPLOYED AIRBAG MODULE
DRIVER AIRBAG
If a Driver Airbag Module has been deployed, but
not due to a collision, replace the following:
²Driver Airbag Module
²Clockspring assembly
²Driver airbag cover/horn switch
The components above must be replaced because
they cannot be reused. Replace any other driver air-
bag system components if damaged.
PASSENGER AIRBAG
If a Passenger Airbag Module has been deployed,
but not due to a collision, replace the following:
²Passenger Airbag Module
²Upper instrument panel with pad
The component above must be replaced because
they cannot be reused. Inspect the heat duct near the
passenger airbag for any damage replace as neces-sary. Replace any other passenger airbag system
components if damaged.
HANDLING AIRBAG MODULE
DEPLOYED MODULE
The vehicle interior may contain a very small
amount of sodium hydroxide powder, a by-product of
airbag deployment. Sodium hydroxide powder can
irritate the skin, eyes, nose and throat. Wear safety
glasses, rubber gloves, and long sleeved clothing
when cleaning any of the powder residue from the
vehicle.
If you find that the cleanup is irritating your skin,
run cool water over the affected area. Also, if you
experience nasal or throat irritation, exit the vehicle
for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation
continues, see a physician.
UNDEPLOYED
The airbag modules must be stored in its original
special container until used for service. At no time
should a source of electricity be permitted near the
inflator on the back of an airbag module. When car-
rying or handling an undeployed airbag module, the
trim side of the airbag should be pointing away from
the body to minimize possibility of injury if acciden-
tal deployment occurs. Do not place undeployed air-
bag face down on a solid surface, the airbag will
propel into the air if accidentally deployment occurs.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
The electrically heated Rear Window Defogger (Fig.
1), Heated Power Side View Mirrors, and Heated
Windshield Wiper De-icer (Fig. 2) is available on NS
vehicles.
The Rear Window Defogger system consists of two
vertical bus bars linked by a series of grid lines on
the inside surface of the rear window. The electrical
circuit consists of the rear defogger switch in the
HVAC and a relay with timer switch to turn OFF the
system after ten minutes. The main feed circuit is
protected by fuse one (40 amp) in the Junction Block.
The rear defogger switch and relay also activates the
heated power side view mirrors and heated wind-
shield wiper de-icer. The HVAC rear defogger switch
is protected by fuse ten (10 amp) in the Junction
Block. The heated mirror circuit is protected by fuse
12 (10 amp) in the junction block. The heated wind-
shield wiper de-icer circuit is protected by fuse 21 (25
amp) in the Junction Block.
The Heated Windshield Wiper Deicer is also acti-
vated when the DEFROST mode is selected on the
HVAC. In the DEFROST mode the rear defogger
relay/timer is bypassed, the heated windshield wiper
de-icer will stay ON until the another mode is
selected. For circuit information and component loca-
tion refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
CAUTION: Since grid lines can be damaged or
scraped off with sharp instruments, care should be
taken in cleaning the glass or removing foreign
materials, decals or stickers. Normal glass cleaning
solvents or hot water used with rags or toweling is
recommended.
HVAC MOUNTED SWITCH
The rear window defogger switch is integrated into
the HVAC (Fig. 3). An LED indicator will illuminate
when the switch is activated. The switch energizesthe timing circuit and activates the rear window
defogger relay. The relay controls the current to flow
to the grids of the rear window defogger, heated
power side view mirrors and the heated windshield
wiper de-icer. The defogger relay will be on for
approximately 10 minutes or until the control switch
or ignition is turned off.

(3) With negative lead of voltmeter, contact a good
body ground point. The voltage reading should not
change. A different reading indicates a poor ground
connection.
(4) Connect negative lead of voltmeter to terminal
A on passenger side bus bar and touch each grid line
at Mid-Point with positive lead. A reading of approx-
imately 6 volts indicates a line is good. A reading of 0
volts indicates a break in line between Mid-Point C
and terminal B. A reading of 10-14 volts indicates a
break between Mid-Point C and ground terminal A.
Move toward break and voltage will change as soon
as break is crossed.

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Memory Seat and Mirrors system is available only
on Town and Country (Luxury Class) vehicles.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit
information and component locations. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for addi-
tional diagnostic information.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSM Module) is
mounted under the driver's seat, on the inboard
upper track with Torx head screws. The MSM Mod-
ule provides the driver with an adjustable seat,
recliner, and power side view mirror positioning con-
troller that remembers stored positions and will
recall those positions on command.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module reads all seat and
recliner switch inputs and operates the seat and
recliner motors in response to switch actuation. The
MSM Module monitors position sensing potentiome-
ters (mounted on the motors) for seat and recliner
positioning.
The MSM Module operates the power side view
mirror motors through solid state drivers (electronic
switches) in the recall mode only, and follows the
glass face position by means of rheostats built into
the motor pack assembly of the mirrors. Normal elec-
trical operation of the mirrors is accomplished by
actuation of the power mirror switch.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module monitors the mem-
ory switches and has the capability to store desired
positions in non-volatile memory in response to a valid
input sequence. Refer to Memory Selector Switches (1,
2, and S) and Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Data Link.
The memory seat/mirror module also can activate the
previously described motors in response to a recall
request from an individual memory switch.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module monitors a data
link between the RKE receiver and the Body Control
Module (BCM) and will respond to stored information
or modify stored information when requested by a
valid data stream.
The Memory Seat/Mirror Module is connected to
the system through a seat wiring harness that inter-
faces will all of the components within the seat struc-
ture, and with electrical distribution wiring harness
connections to the non-seat mounted components.
The module operates the seat and recliner motors
through relays: four dedicated to track forward/rear-
ward, track front up/down, track rear up/down, and
recliner forward/rearward. A fifth relay controls the
direction of operation of those motors.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
POWER SIDE VIEW MIRROR POSITION SENSING
The mirror switch on the instrument panel oper-
ates the outside rear view mirrors independently of
the memory seat/mirror module. The module acti-
vates the mirror motors only when in its recall mode.
The side view mirrors have position sensing rheo-
stats built into each side view mirror vertical and
horizontal motor assembly. These rheostats provide a
sense voltage to the memory seat/mirror module that
indicates where the mirror is moving to or where its
position is at when the module is activated but the
mirror motor is not moving.
MEMORY SELECTOR SWITCHES
The memory selector switches are mounted on the
driver's door trim panel within easy reach of the
driver. They provide a means to set or recall either of

SECTION IDENTIFICATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual
sections. If a component is most likely found in a par-
ticular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,
connectors, and pins) within that group. For exam-
ple, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Group 30, so it is shown there complete. It
can, however, be shown partially in another group if
it contains some associated wiring.
