OPERATION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC), Com-
pass Temperature (CT) module in the overhead con-
sole has buttons used to select various functions. The
CMTC, CT selector buttons will not operate until the
ignition is in the RUN position.
When the ignition switch is first turned to the
RUN position the CMTC, CT display;
²Blanks momentarily
²
All segments of the VFD will light for one second
²Blanks momentarily
²Returns to the last mode setting selected before
the ignition was last switched OFF.
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - COMPASS MINI-TRIP
COMPUTER
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) and Com-
pass Temperature (CT) data is obtained from the
Body Control Module (BCM) on the J1850 Data Bus
circuit. The CMTC and CT will display dashes (- -)
for any of the screens it did not receive the bus mes-
sages. The label corresponding to the missing infor-
mation will be lit. If no compass mini-trip computer
data is displayed, check the J1850 Data Bus circuit
communications and the BCM. If the brightness level
is improper check the J1850 Data Bus circuit.
The DRB IIItis recommended for checking the
J1850 Data Bus circuit and the BCM. Perform the
CMTC, CT self diagnosis before replacing the CMTC
or CT module.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove overhead console. Refer to Overhead
Console Removal and Installation in this section(Re-
fer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE -
REMOVAL) .
(3) Remove the screws holding Compass Mini-Trip
Computer module in the overhead console.
(4) Remove CMTC module from console assembly.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the compass mini-trip computer mod-
ule in the overhead console.
(2) Install the ten screws holding the compass
mini-trip computer module in the overhead console.
(3) Install the overhead console. Refer to Overhead
Console Removal and Installation in this section.
(4) Connect the battery negative cable.
NOTE: If a new module has been installed, the com-
pass will have to be calibrated and the variance set.
Refer to Compass Variation Adjustment and Com-
pass Calibration in the Service Procedures section
of this group for the procedures.
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
On some RS models a Homelinkttransceiver is
standard factory-installed equipment. The Homelinkt
transceiver is integral to the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) and the Compass Mini-Trip
Computer (CMTC), which is located in the overhead
console. The only visible component of the Homelinkt
are the three transmitter push buttons centered
between the modules push buttons located just rear-
ward of the display screen in the overhead console.
The three Homelinkttransmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified by sight or by feel.
Each of the three Homelinkttransmitter push but-
tons controls an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained to
transmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-
tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The Homelinktis capable of operating systems
using either rolling code or non-rolling code technol-
ogy.
The electronics module displays messages and a
small house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots
corresponding to the three transmitter buttons to
indicate the status of the Homelinkt. The EVIC mes-
sages are:
²Cleared Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the Homelinkthave been
successfully cleared.
²Training- Indicates that the Homelinktis in
its transmitter learning mode.
²Trained- Indicates that the Homelinkthas
successfully acquired a new transmitter code.
²Transmit- Indicates that a trained Homelinkt
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
Homelinktis transmitting.
The Homelinktcannot be repaired, and is avail-
able for service only as a unit with the EVIC or
CMTC modules. If any of these components is faulty
or damaged, the complete EVIC or CMTC module
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The Homelinktoperates on a non-switched source
of battery current so the unit will remain functional,
regardless of the ignition switch position. For more
information on the features, programming procedures
and operation of the Homelinkt, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box.
