DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HORN
HORN
(1) Disconnect wire connector at horn.
(2) Using a voltmeter, connect one lead to ground
terminal and the other lead to the positive wire ter-
minal (Fig. 1).
(3) Depress the horn switch, battery voltage
should be present.
(4) If no voltage, refer toHORNS WILL NOT
SOUND. If voltage is OK, go to step Step 5.
(5) Using ohmmeter, test ground wire for continu-
ity to ground.
(6) If no ground repair as necessary.
(7) If wires test OK and horn does not sound,
replace horn.
HORNS SOUND CONTINUOUSLY
CAUTION: Continuous sounding of horns may
cause relay to fail.The horn switch (membrane) sometimes can be the
cause without the switch being depressed.
(1) Remove the horn relay from the intelligent
power module.
(2) Using a continuity tester, test continuity from
the X3 cavity of the horn relay to ground. Refer to
the appropriate wiring information. The wiring infor-
mation includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and
connector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.

IGNITION CONTROL
DESCRIPTION - IGNITION SYSTEM
NOTE: All engines use a fixed ignition timing sys-
tem. Basic ignition timing is not adjustable. All
spark advance is determined by the Powertrain
Control Module (PCM).
The distributorless ignition system used on these
engines is referred to as the Direct Ignition System
(DIS). The system's three main components are the
coils, crankshaft position sensor, and camshaft posi-
tion sensor. The coil on plug ignition system utilizesan ignition coil for every cylinder, it is mounted
directly over the each spark plug.
OPERATION - IGNITION SYSTEM
The crankshaft position sensor and camshaft posi-
tion sensor are hall effect devices. The camshaft posi-
tion sensor and crankshaft position sensor generate
pulses that are inputs to the PCM. The PCM deter-
mines engine position from these sensors. The PCM
calculates injector sequence and ignition timing from
crankshaft & camshaft position. For a description of
both sensors, refer to Camshaft Position Sensor and
Crankshaft Position Sensor.

FIRING ORDERAUTO SHUT DOWN RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The relay is located in the Power Distribution Cen-
ter (PDC). For the location of the relay within the
PDC, refer to the PDC cover for location. Check elec-
trical terminals for corrosion and repair as necessary
OPERATION
The ASD sense circuit informs the PCM when the
ASD relay energizes. A 12 volt signal at this input
indicates to the PCM that the ASD has been acti-
vated. This input is used only to sense that the ASD
relay is energized.
When energized, the ASD relay supplies battery
voltage to the fuel injectors, ignition coils and the
heating element in each oxygen sensor.
When energized, the ASD relay provides power to
operate the injectors, ignition coil, generator field, O2
sensor heaters (both upstream and downstream),
(EGR solenoid and PCV heater if equipped) and also
provides a sense circuit to the PCM for diagnostic
purposes. If the PCM does not receive 12 volts from
this input after grounding the ASD relay, it sets a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). The PCM energizes
the ASD any time there is a Crankshaft Position sen-
sor signal that exceeds a predetermined value. The
ASD relay can also be energized after the engine has
been turned off to perform an O2 sensor heater test,
if vehicle is equipped with OBD II diagnostics.
As mentioned earlier, the PCM energizes the ASD
relay during an O2 sensor heater test. This test is
performed only after the engine has been shut off.
The PCM still operates internally to perform several
checks, including monitoring the O2 sensor heaters.
CAMSHAFT POSITION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The camshaft position sensorfor the 3.3/3.8L is
mounted in the front of the timing case cover (Fig. 6)
and the camshaft position sensor for the 2.4L is

(3) Carefully attach electrical connector to cam-
shaft position sensor.
(4) Connect the negative battery cable.
INSTALLATION - 3.3/3.8L
If the removed sensor is reinstalled, clean off
the old spacer on the sensor face. A NEW
SPACER must be attached to the face before
installation.Inspect O-ring for damage, replace if
necessary. If the sensor is being replaced, confirm
that the paper spacer is attached to the face and
O-ring is positioned in groove of the new sensor (Fig.

IGNITION COIL
DESCRIPTION
The ignition coil assembly consists of 2 or 3 inde-
pendent coils molded together (Fig. 9) or (Fig. 10).
The coil assembly for the 3.3/3.8L is mounted on the
intake manifold. The coil assembly for the 2.4L is
mounted on the cylinder head cover. Spark plug
cables route to each cylinder from the coil.
OPERATION
The coil fires two spark plugs every power stroke.
One plug is the cylinder under compression, the
other cylinder fires on the exhaust stroke. The Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM) determines which of
the coils to charge and fire at the correct time.
The Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay provides battery
voltage to the ignition coil. The PCM provides a
ground contact (circuit) for energizing the coil. When
the PCM breaks the contact, the magnetic energy in
the coil transfers to the secondary causing the spark.
The PCM will de-energize the ASD relay if it does
not receive the crankshaft position sensor and cam-
shaft position sensor inputs. Refer to Auto Shutdown
(ASD) RelayÐPCM Output, in this section for relay
operation.

GLOW PLUG
DESCRIPTION
Glow plugs are used to help start a cold or cool
engine (Fig. 1). The glow plugs will heat up and glow
to heat the combustion chamber of each cylinder. An
individual glow plug is used for each cylinder. Each
glow plug is threaded into the left side of the cylinder
head below the cylinder head cover/intake manifold.
OPERATION
Each glow plug will momentarily draw approxi-
mately 25 amps of electrical current during the ini-
tial key ªONº cycle. This is on a cold or cool engine.
After heating the current draw will drop to approxi-
mately 9±12 amps per plug.
Total momentary cuurent draw for all four glow
plugs is approximately 100 amps on a cold engine
dropping to a total of approximately 40 amps after
the plugs are heated.
Electrical operation of the glow plugs is controlled
by two glow plug relays. Each glow plug relay con-
trols two glow plugs. Refer to glow plug relays for
more information.
GLOW PLUG RELAY
DESCRIPTION
There are two glow plug relays. These relays are
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) in
the engine compartment (Fig. 2).
OPERATION
When the ignition (key) switch is place in the ON
position, a signal is sent to the ECM relating current
engine coolant temperature. This signal is sent from
the engine coolant temperature sensor.
After receiving this signal, the ECM will determine
if, when and for how long of a period the glow plug
relays should be activated. This is done before, dur-
ing and after the engine is started. Whenever the
glow plug relays are activated, it will control the 12
volt 100 amp circuit for the operation of the four
glow plugs. Each relay control two glow plugs.

The Glow Plug lamp is tied to this circuit. Lamp
operation is also controlled by the ECM.
With a cold engine, the glow plug relays and glow
plugs may be activated for a maximum time of 200
seconds. Refer to the following Glow Plug Control
chart for a temperature/time comparison of the glow
plug relay operation.
In this chart, Pre-Heat and Post-Heat times are
mentioned. Pre-Heat is the amount of time the glow
plug relay control circuit is activated when the igni-
tion (key) is switched ON, without the engine run-
ning. Post-Heat is the amount of time the glow plug
relay control circuit is activated after the engine is
operated. The Glow Plug lamp will not be activated
during the post-heat cycle.

CAMSHAFT POSITION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The camshaft position (CMP) sensor is mounted in
the top of cylinder head cover/intake manifold at the
rear of the engine. The CMP sensor is a hall effect
device (Fig. 3).
OPERATION
The CMP sensor is a hall effect switch. A tooth
made of a ferromagnetic material is attached to the
camshaft. When this tooth passes the CMP sensor an
lectronic signal is created. This signal is then sent to
the engine control module (ECM). This signal is used
by the ECM to determine which cylinder has just
entered its compression phase.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable.
(2) Remove engine cover (Refer to 9 - ENGINE
COVER - REMOVAL).
(3) Disconnect camshaft position sensor electrical
connector (Fig. 4).

sage transmitted by the BCM to the FCM to turn off
the headlamps.
OPERATION
AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP SYSTEM
Automatic headlamps are controlled by the Body Con-
trol Module (BCM). With the headlamp switch in the
AUTO position, the BCM will control the headlamp, park-
ing, side marker, tail and instrumentation lamps based on
ambient light levels. Ambient light levels are monitored
by the BCM using the Day/Night signal and Electrochro-
matic Mirror (ECM) present from the Compass Mini Trip
(CMTC) located on the front windshield in front of the
rear view mirror ECM. Ambient light readings are aver-
aged to limit cycling the lamps ON and OFF when pass-
ing through areas with varying light levels. The
automatic headlamps will only function when the engine
is running with RPM > 450. When the headlamp switch is
in the AUTO position (Automatic mode), the Headlamp
Time Delay system will function when the ignition switch
is placed in any position other than run/start.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
Power is reduced using pulse-width modulation to
the high beams, where by the power is switched on
and off rapidly instead of remaining on continuously.
The duration and interval of the power pulses is pro-
grammed into the FCM.
HEADLAMP SYSTEM
The headlamp system will default to headlamps
ON position when ignition switch is ON and when an
open or short circuit failure occurs on the headlamp
switch input. The system will return to normal oper-
ation when the open or short is repaired. A fault will
be reported by the BCM when a failure occurs on the
dimmer or headlamp switch input.
If the exterior lamps are ON and the headlamp
switch is in any position other than OFF or AUTO
and with the ignition switch OFF (LOCK) after 3
minutes the BCM sends a message via PCI bus to
the FCM informing the FCM to turn off the head-
lamps, park lamps and fog lamps. This feature pre-
vents the vehicle battery from being discharged when
the vehicle lights have been left ON.
HEADLAMP TIME DELAY SYSTEM
The headlamp time delay system is activated by
turning the headlamps ON (high or low beam) while
the engine is running, turning the ignition switch
OFF, and then turning the headlamp switch OFF
within 45 seconds. The system will not activate if
more than 45 seconds elapse between ignition switch
OFF and headlamp switch OFF. The BCM will allow
the headlamps to remain ON for 90 seconds (config-urable) before they automatically turn off (If the key
is in the ignition during the headlamp time delay
mode, then both the headlamps and park lamps
(including panel dimming) will be ON). Refer to the
Owner's Manual for more information.
If the headlamp switch is in the Auto Headlamp
Position, the headlamps are ON due to the night sig-
nal from the CMTC and the ignition switch is in any
position other than run/start, the BCM shall enter a
90 second (configurable) Auto Headlamps time delay
mode. If the key is in the ignition during the head-
lamp time delay mode, then both the headlamps and
park lamps (including panel dimming) will be ON. If
the key is not in the ignition, then only the head-
lamps will be ON. The BCM will allow the head-
lamps to remain ON for 90 seconds before they
automatically turn OFF. Refer to the Owner's Man-
ual for more information.
OPTICAL HORN/HIGH BEAMS
When the multi-function switch is pulled to the
first detent (optical horn) signal, the headlamps are
ON, key-in the ignition the BCM shall send a mes-
sage via PCI bus to the FCM to turn on the head-
lamps drivers to illuminate all four filaments (Low
and High beams). When the multi-function switch is
pulled to the second detent (high beam) signal and
the headlamps are ON, the BCM shall send a mes-
sage via PCI bus to the FCM to turn on the head-
lamps drivers. The High Beams are illuminated and
the Low Beams and Fog Lamps (if ON) are extin-
guished. If the headlamps were in the high beam
configuration when power was removed from the
headlamps, the headlamps will be configured as low
beam the next time they are activated.
