mitted on the bus even though a module may not
require all information to perform its function. It
will only respond to messages ªaddressedº to it
through binary coding process. This method of data
transmission significantly reduces the complexity
of the wiring in the vehicle and the size of wiring
harnesses. All of the information about the func-
tioning of all the systems is organized, controlled,
and communicated by the PCI bus, which is de-
scribed in the Communication Section of this gen-
eral information.
3.1 AIRBAG SYSTEM/OCCUPANT
RESTRAINT CONTROLLER SYSTEM
The 2001 Minivan Airbag System contain the
following components: Occupant Restraint Control-
ler (ORC), Airbag Warning Indicator, Clockspring,
Driver and Passenger Airbags, Seat belt Tensioners
(SBT), Hall-effect Seat Belt Switches (SBS), Left
and Right Side Airbag Control Module (SIACM),
and Seat (mounted side) Airbags.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is a
new type of Airbag Control Module (ACM) that
supports staged airbag deployment. Staged deploy-
ment is the ability to trigger airbag system squib
inflators all at once or individually as needed to
provide the appropriate restraint for the severity of
the impact. The ORC has four major functions: PCI
Bus communications, onboard diagnostics, impact
sensing, and component deployment. The ORC also
contains an energy-storage capacitor. This capaci-
tor stores enough electrical energy to deploy the
front airbag components for two seconds following a
battery disconnect or failure during an impact. The
ORC is secured to the floor panel transmission
tunnel below the instrument panel inside the vehi-
cle. The ORC cannot be repaired or adjusted and
must be replaced.
The ORC sends and/or receives PCI Bus mes-
sages with the Instrument Cluster (MIC), Body
Control Module (BCM), and Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). Diagnostic trouble codes will be set
if the communication with these modules is lost or
contains invalid information.
The microprocessor in the ORC monitors the
impact sensor signal and the airbag system electri-
cal circuits to determine the system readiness. The
ORC also monitors bus messages from both SIACM.
If the ORC detects a monitored system fault or
SIACM fault, it sends a message to the instrument
cluster via PCI bus to turn on the airbag warning
indicator. The ORC can set both active and stored
diagnostic trouble codes to aid in the diagnosing
system problems. See ORC/SIACM DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLE CODES in this section.
The ORC has an internal accelerometer that
senses the rate of vehicle deceleration, which pro-vides verification of the direction and severity of an
impact. A pre-programmed decision algorithm in
the ORC microprocessor determines when the de-
celeration rate is severe enough to require airbag
system protection. The Occupant Restraint Control-
ler (ORC) also uses the driver and front passenger
seat belt switch status (buckled or unbuckled) as
inputs to determine the level of airbag deployment,
low, medium, or high as well as whether or not the
seat belt tensioners should deploy. The ORC also
uses the crash severity to determine the level of
driver and front passenger deployment, low me-
dium or high. When the programmed conditions are
met, the ORC sends an electrical signal to deploy
the appropriate airbag system components.WARNING: THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS A
SENSITIVE, COMPLEX ELECTRO-
MECHANICAL UNIT. BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO DIAGNOSE OR SERVICE ANY AIRBAG
SYSTEM OR RELATED STEERING WHEEL,
STEERING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT
PANEL COMPONENTS YOU MUST FIRST
DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE. WAIT TWO
MINUTES FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO
DISCHARGE BEFORE FURTHER SYSTEM
SERVICE. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO
DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE
TO DO THIS COULD RESULT IS ACCIDENTAL
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE
PERSONAL INJURY. NEVER STRIKE OR
KICK THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE, AS
IT CAN DAMAGE THE IMPACT SENSOR OR
AFFECT ITS CALIBRATION. IF AN AIRBAG
CONTROL MODULE IS ACCIDENTALLY
DROPPED DURING SERVICE, THE MODULE
MUST BE SCRAPPED AND REPLACED WITH
A NEW UNIT.
The airbag warning lamp is the only point at
which the customer can observe symptoms of a
system malfunction. Whenever the ignition key is
turned to the run or start position, the MIC per-
forms a lamp check by turning the airbag warning
indicator on for 6-8 seconds. After the lamp check, if
the indicator turns on, it means that the ORC has
checked the system and found it to be free of
discernible malfunctions. If the lamp remains on,
there could be an active fault in the system or the
MIC lamp circuit may be internally shorted to
ground. If the lamp comes on and stays on for a
period longer than 6-8 seconds then goes off, there
is usually an intermittent problem in the system.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Ifneither of the following codes is an active code:
ACTIVE DTC SQUIB STATUS
Driver squib 1 open Status of Airbag is
Driver Squib 2 open Unknown.
3.1.2 CLOCKSPRING
The clockspring is mounted on the steering col-
umn behind the steering wheel. This assembly
consist of a plastic housing which contains a flat,
ribbon-like, electrically conductive tape that winds
and unwinds with the steering wheel rotation. The
clockspring is used to maintain a continuous elec-
trical circuit between the instrument panel wiring
and the driver airbag, the horn, and the vehicle
speed control switches if equipped. The clockspring
must be properly centered when it is reinstalled on
the steering column following any service proce-
dure, or it could be damaged. The clockspring can-
not be repaired and it must be replaced.
3.1.3 PASSENGER AIRBAG
The airbag door in the instrument panel top cover
the glove box is the most visible part of the passen-
ger side airbag system. The airbag door has a living
hinge at the top, which is secured to the instrument
panel top cover. Located under the airbag door is
the airbag cushion and its supporting components.
The airbag module includes a housing to which the
cushion and hybrid inflators are attached and
sealed. The 2001 Minivan is equipped with front
passenger airbag with dual stage inflators that
include a small canister of highly compressed argon
gas. The ORC uses vehicle crash severity, front
passenger seat belt switch status (buckled or un-
buckled) inputs to determine the level of airbag
deployment. When supplied with the proper electri-
cal signal, the hybrid inflator or inflators discharge
the compressed gas it contains directly into the
cushion. The airbag module cannot be repaired, and
must be replaced if deployed or in any way dam-
aged.
WARNING: THE PASSENGER AIRBAG
MODULE CONTAINS ARGON GAS
PRESSURIZED TO 17236.89 Kpa (2500 PSI).
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISMANTLE AN
AIRBAG MODULE OR TAMPER WITH ITS
INFLATOR. DO NOT PUNCTURE,
INCINERATE, OR BRING INTO CONTACT
WITH ELECTRICITY. DO NOT STORE AT
TEMPERATURE EXCEEDING 93ÉC (200ÉF).

GENERAL INFORMATION

if the system is functioning properly. If the test
finds a problem the SIACM will set both active and
stored diagnostic trouble codes. If a DTC is active
the SIACM will request that the airbag warning
lamp be turned on. The results of the system test
are transmitted on the PCI Bus to the ORC once
each second or on change in lamp state. If the
warning lamp status message from the either SI-
ACM contains a lamp on request, the ORC will set
an active DTC. At the same time as the DTC is set
the ORC sends a PCI Bus message to the mechan-
ical instrument cluster (MIC) requesting the airbag
warning lamp be turned on. Observe all ORC warn-
ing and caution statements when servicing or han-
dling the SIACM. SIACM are not repairable and
must be replaced if they are dropped.

3.1.7 SEAT AIRBAGS (SAB)
The left and right seat airbag modules are located
in the outboard end of the front seat backs. The
airbag module contains a bag, an inflator (a small
canister of highly compressed argon gas) and a
mounting bracket. The seat airbag module cannot
be repaired and must be replaced if deployed or in
any way damaged. When supplied with the proper
electrical signal the inflator seals the hole in the
airbag cushion so it can discharge the compressed
gas it contains directly into the cushion. Upon
deployment, the seat back trim cover will tear open
and allow the seat airbag to fully deploy between
the seat and the door.
WARNING: SEAT AIRBAG CONTAINS ARGON
GAS PRESSURIZED TO OVER 17236.89 Kpa
(2500 PSI). DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
DISMANTLE AN AIRBAG MODULE OR

3.1.8 ORC/SIACM DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE
CODES
Airbag diagnostic trouble codes consist of active
and stored codes. If more than one code exists,
diagnostic priority should be given to the active
codes. Each diagnostic trouble code is diagnosed by
following a specific testing procedure. The diagnos-
tic test procedures contain step-by-step instructions
for determining the cause of the trouble codes. It is
not necessary to perform all of the tests in this book
to diagnose an individual code. Always begin by
reading the diagnostic trouble codes using the DRB.
Always begin diagnostic with the Table of Contents

GENERAL INFORMATION

This feature dims the interior lighting (courtesy
lamps) gradually if the BCM does not receive any
new inputs that would cause the interior lamps to
remain on.
²PWM Instrument Panel Dimming
²Door Lock Inhibit
This feature disables the door lock functions if the
key is in the ignition and either front door is ajar.
Pressing the RKE lock/unlock button under these
conditions, result in normal lock/unlock activation.
²Power Sliding Door Switch Inputs
The BCM has 4 switch inputs for the power
sliding door feature: Located in the overhead con-
sole are the Left and Right side sliding door
switches to activate either or both sliding doors
under the proper conditions. Also are B-Pillar
switches located on the Left and Right B-pillar
posts.
²Power Liftgate Switch Input
The BCM has 1 Liftgate switch input located in
the overhead console
²Power Lockout Switch Input
The BCM has 1 Lockout switch that when en-
abled will disable the B-Pillar sliding door switches
from activating either sliding door when depressed.
When replacing a body control module there are 2
modules available, a Base and a Midline. The
Midline controller is used on vehicles that have
Power Door Locks. If a vehicle is equipped with the
Vehicle Theft Security System, the midline control-
ler becomes a premium when the theft feature is
enabled.
NOTE: DO NOT SWAP THE BODY CONTROL
MODULE BETWEEN VEHICLES OR BODY
CONTROL MODULES OFF THE SHELF.
Engineering does not recommend that service,
dealers or the plant swap Body Control Modules
(BCM) between vehicles or off the shelf. The BCM
has internal diagnostic capability that assists in
diagnosing the system. When an ªOpenº or a
ªShortº circuit exists, the diagnostic tool can be
used to read the BCM codes. The codes are very
descriptive in identifying the appropriate feature
that has faulted.
3.4 CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
The BCM monitors the door/liftgate ajar
switches, multifunction switches, headlight switch,
ignition switch, PCI bus, and the diagnostic tool to
perform various chime operations. The BCM uses a
low-side driver to control the chime located in the
cluster.
The chime system provides the Driver with warn-
ing chimes for:
²Seat belt
²Exterior lights on
²Key-in Ignition
²Key-in Accessory
²Engine temperature critical
²Low washer fluid
²Turn signals on
²Dome light on
²Low oil pressure
²Any warning lamp announcement
²High-speed warning Gulf Coast Countries (GCC)
only
The output sound intensity of the chime is ap-
proximately 72 decibels.
3.4.1 CHIME PRIORITY
The following list indicates the priority of the
chime when more than one chime is active at the
same time:
²Seat belt warning
²High-speed warning Gulf Coast Countries (GCC)
only
²Turn signal on
²Chime request
²Warning lamp announcement
The cluster is responsible to set priority on all
warning lamp announcement chimes.
3.4.2 CHIME ON CONDITIONS
The following is a list of the chime warnings and
when they will sound.
Driver 's Seat
belt Unbuckled:Sounds for approximately 662
seconds when the igntion is turned
on and driver 's seat belt is not
buckled, as a reminder to the
driver to buckle the seat belt.
Exterior Lights
On:Ignition is in the lock position,
the driver door is ajar, and the
headlight switch is left in any
position, other than auto or off.

3.9 HEATING & A/C
3.9.1 AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE
CONTROL (ATC)
3.9.1.1 CABIN HEATER
For vehicles equipped with a diesel engine, a
Cabin Heater is used in conjunction with the HVAC
system. The Cabin Heater is designed to supply the
vehicle's occupants with heat prior to the engine
reaching operating temperature. For additional in-
formation on this system, refer to Cabin Heater
under General Information and Diagnostic Proce-
dures in this manual.
3.9.1.2 SYSTEM OPERATION
The Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) sys-
tem provides fully adjustable three zone climate
control; Driver front zone, Passenger Front zone
and Rear zone. The following is a list of ATC
controls and features:
± a POWER button which allows the operator to
turn the system completely off.
± AUTO HIGH/LOW switch allows the operator
to select what rate (fan speed) the system will
provide the selected comfort level.
± DRIVER, REAR and PASSENGER rocker
switches to select desired temperature for each
zone.
± Recirculation button allows cooling air to be
recirculated which maximizes cooling ability.
± A/C select button allows the operator to turn
the A/C compressor off.
± Defroster button allows the operator to turn on
the defroster independently during automatic
control.
± Fan control rotary switch for selecting fan
speed.
± Mode rotary switch for selecting heating/
cooling direction.
± REAR SYSTEM rotary switch for activating
the Rear ATC Switch allowing intermediate
passenger control over rear climate control.
3.9.1.3 BLOWER MOTOR OPERATION
The Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) front
and rear blower control provides continuously vari-
able control of air flow rate to meet occupant
comfort requirements. Pulse width modulation of
the blower motor power allows the front and rear
blower to operate at any speed from off to full speed.
When front or rear blower operation is required, the
ATC sends a PCI Bus message to the Front Control
Module (FCM) requesting blower relay ON. The
FCM provides a ground for the front and rear
blower motor relay coils, activating both relays. The
front and rear blower relays provide 12 volts to
their respective blower motor power modules. Each
module provides a 12 volt blower motor control
signal to the ATC. The ATC provides a pulse width
modulated (duty-cycle) ground signal to this circuit
based on climate requirements. The higher voltage
on the signal circuit (less duty-cycle ground) the
lower the blower speed request. The lower voltage
on the signal circuit (more duty-cycle ground) the
higher the blower speed request.
3.9.1.4 INFRARED SENSORS
The ATC system uses infrared (I/R) sensors to
monitor and control oocupant comfort levels. This
sensing system replaces interior air temperature
and solar sensors which required complex control
programs to maintain occupant comfort levels. The
front I/R sensor is located in the instrument panel
center bezel outlet. The rear I/R sensor is located in
the rear overhead mounted ATC switch.
3.9.1.5 REAR ATC SWITCH
The rear ATC switch is mounted in the headliner.
The switch contains a rotary adjustment for fan
speed, a rotary adjustment for mode selection, a
push button switch for temperature selection and a
digital display of the selected temperature.
3.9.1.6 COOLDOWN TESTING
The ATC provides a feature referred to as a
Cooldown Test. This test is initiated using the
DRBIIItand is designed to check the performance
of the air conditioning system. The ATC will not
perform this test if the ambient air temperature is
below 12ÉC (53ÉF). During the test, the ATC com-
pares the ambient air temperature to the evapora-
tor temperature sensor. To pass the cooldown test,
the evap temperature sensor must drop -6ÉC (20ÉF)
below ambient temperature within 2 minutes of
start of test. At the completion of the cooldown test
the DRBIIItwill display one of the following mes-
sages indicating test outcome:
± Cooldown Test Passed
± Cooldown Test Failed
