BRAKE LAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The brake lamp switch is located under the instru-
ment panel, at the brake pedal arm (Fig. 3). It has
three internal switches controlling various functions
of the vehicle. It's main function is to control opera-
tion of the vehicle's brake lamps via a brake switch
input to the BCM. The BCM will then activate the
stop lamps. Other functions include speed control
deactivation, brake sense for the antilock brake sys-
tem and brake sense for the brake transmission shift
interlock.
CAUTION: The switch can only be adjusted once.
That is during initial installation of the switch. If the
switch is not adjusted properly or has been
removed for some service, a new switch must be
installed and adjusted.
OPERATION
When the brake pedal is pressed, the plunger on
the outside of the brake lamp switch extends out-
ward. This action opens or closes the contacts of the
three switches inside the brake lamp switch.
With the brake pedal pressed down (plunger
extended), the switch for terminals 1 and 2 is closedcompleting the circuit. The switch for terminals 3
and 4 is open and so is the switch for terminals 5
and 6.
When the brake pedal is released (plunger pushed
in), the three switches assume the opposite positions.
The switch for terminals 1 and 2 is now open while
the other two switches are now closed, completing
their circuits.
A lever on the back of the switch is used to set the
switch into the ªadjustedº position. A non-adjusted
switch will have the lever set to the diagonal position
in relation to the switch housing. The plunger can be
moved in and out, but the states of the internal
switches will not change.
CAUTION: Never move the adjustment lever of the
new brake lamp switch without it being properly
installed in the vehicle first. Such action will render
the switch unusable and the switch must be dis-
carded.
Once installed in the vehicle as described in the
brake lamp switch installation procedure (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
BRAKE LAMP SWITCH - INSTALLATION), the new
switch's adjustment lever is rotated to the adjusted
position as indicated (Fig. 4). This action locks the
plunger to the internal switches.Once in this posi-
tion the switch is permanently adjusted (or
locked) and cannot be readjusted or released
even if the lever is moved back.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BRAKE LAMP
SWITCH
NOTE: Before proceeding with this diagnostic test,
verify the adjustment lever on the back of the
switch is in the adjusted position. If the lever is in
the non-adjusted (diagonal) position it may have
never been adjusted (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/BRAKE LAMP
SWITCH - OPERATION). For adjustment, (Refer to 8
- ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
BRAKE LAMP SWITCH - INSTALLATION)
If the electrical circuit has been tested and the
brake lamp switch is suspected of being faulty, it can
be tested using the following method.
(1) Remove the switch from the vehicle. (Refer to 8
- ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
BRAKE LAMP SWITCH - REMOVAL)
(2) With the switch in the released position
(plunger extended), use an ohmmeter to test each of
the three internal switches as shown (Fig. 1). You
should achieve the results as listed in the figure.
(3) Gently push the plunger on the brake lamp
switch in until it stops.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR (Continued)

(4) With the switch in this depressed position
(plunger pushed in), use an ohmmeter to test each of
the three internal switches as shown (Fig. 2). You
should achieve the results as listed in the figure.
If you do not achieve the results as listed in both
figures, the switch is faulty and must be replaced.
Refer to Removal And Installation in this section.
If the switch is found to be operating properly, it
may be misadjusted. Do not reinstall the switch,
replace it. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/BRAKE LAMP SWITCH -
INSTALLATION)
CAUTION: The switch can only be adjusted once.
That is during initial installation of the switch. If the
switch is not adjusted properly or has been
removed for any reason, a new switch must be
installed and adjusted.

(3) Remove the brake lamp switch by rotating the
switch in a counterclockwise direction approximately
30 degrees and pulling it out of the bracket (Fig. 3).
(4) Release the locking tab and disconnect the wir-
ing connector from the switch.
(5) Discard the brake lamp switch. It must not be
reused.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Do not reuse the original brake lamp
switch. The switch can only be adjusted once. That
is during initial installation of the switch. If the
switch is not adjusted properly or has been
removed for some service, a new switch must be
installed and adjusted.
(1) Mount and adjust the NEW brake lamp switch
using the following procedure:
(a) Connect the wiring connector to the switch
and latch the locking tab.

MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH
DESCRIPTION - TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
The turn signals are actuated with a lever on
Multi-Function Switch, located on the left side of the
steering wheel. The signals are automatically turned
off by a canceling cam (two lobes molded to the clock
spring mechanism). The cam comes in contact with
the cancel actuator on the turn signal (multi-func-
tion) switch assembly. Either cam lobe, pushing on
the cancel actuator, returns the switch to the OFF
position. The multi-function switch is a resistive
MUX switch that feeds inputs to the BCM.

OPERATION - TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
Lane change signaling is actuated by applying par-
tial turn signal stalk movement toward the direction
desired until the indicator lamps flashes in the
instrument cluster. When the switch stalk is released
the stalk will spring back into the neutral position
turning OFF the turn signal.
With the ignition switch ON and the turn signal
switch stalk actuated left or right, current flows
through the:
²Multi-function switch
²Body Control Module
²Integrated Power Module (IPM)
²Turn indicator lamp
²Front and rear turn signal bulbs.
A chime will sound after the vehicle has traveled a
distance of approximately 1.0 mile and a speed of 15
mph, with the turn signal ON.

Following completion of these tests, the electron-
ics module will display one of the following messages:
a.Pass Self Test (EVIC only), PASS (CT,
CMTC)- The electronics module is working properly.
b.Failed Self Test (EVIC only), FAIL (CT,
CMTC)- The electronics module has an internal fail-
ure. The electronics module is faulty and must be
replaced.
c.Failed J1850 Communication (EVIC only),
BUS (CT, CMTC)- The electronics module is not
receiving proper message input through the J1850
PCI data bus circuit. This can result from one or
more faulty electronic modules in the vehicle, or from
a faulty PCI data bus. The use of a DRB IIItscan
tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual
are required for further diagnosis.
NOTE: If the compass functions, but accuracy is
suspect, it may be necessary to perform a variation
adjustment. This procedure allows the compass
unit to accommodate variations in the earth's mag-
netic field strength, based on geographic location.
Refer to Compass Variation Adjustment in the Stan-
dard Procedures section of this group.
NOTE: If the compass reading displays dashes, and
only ªCALº appears in the display, demagnetizing
may be necessary to remove excessive residual
magnetic fields from the vehicle. Refer to Compass
Demagnetizing in the Standard Procedures section
of this group.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
CALIBRATION
CAUTION: Do not place any external magnets, such
as magnetic roof mount antennas, in the vicinity of
the compass. Do not use magnetic tools when ser-
vicing the overhead console.
The electronic compass unit features a self-cali-
brating design, which simplifies the calibration pro-
cedure. This feature automatically updates the
compass calibration while the vehicle is being driven.
This allows the compass unit to compensate for small
changes in the residual magnetism that the vehicle
may acquire during normal use. If the compass read-
ings appear to be erratic or out of calibration, per-
form the following calibration procedure. Also, new
service replacement Electronic Modules (EVIC,
CMTC, CT) must have their compass calibrated
using this procedure. Do not attempt to calibrate the
compass near large metal objects such as other vehi-
cles, large buildings, or bridges; or, near overhead or
underground power lines.
NOTE: Whenever the compass is calibrated manu-
ally, the variance number must also be reset. Refer
to Compass Variation Adjustment in this group.
