DESCRIPTION - TEMPERATURE
All the available overhead consoles on this model
include Temperature information. The temperature
displays the outside ambient temperature in whole
degrees. The temperature display can be toggled
from Fahrenheit to Celsius by selecting the desired
U.S./Metric option from the customer programmable
features. The displayed temperature is not an instant
reading of conditions, but an average temperature. It
may take the temperature display several minutes to
respond to a major temperature change, such as driv-
ing out of a heated garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion, the last displayed temperature reading stays in
the electronic control modules (CT, CMTC, EVIC)
memory. When the ignition switch is turned to the
On position again, the electronic module will display
the memory temperature for one minute; then update
the display to the current average temperature read-
ing within five minutes.
The temperature function is supported by an ambi-
ent temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted out-
side the passenger compartment near the front and
center of the vehicle, and is hard wired to the Front
Control Module (FCM). The FCM sends temperature
status messages to the module over the J1850 PCI
data bus circuit.
Following are general descriptions of the major
components used in the overhead console. Refer to
Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit schematics.
OPERATION
Refer to the vehicle Owner's Manual for specific
operation of each overhead console and its systems.

ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO
CENTER
DESCRIPTION
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
is a module located in the overhead console on some
models. The EVIC module features a large Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) screen for displaying
information, and back-lit push button switches
labeled C/T (compass/thermometer), RESET, STEP,
and MENU.
The EVIC module contains a central processing
unit and interfaces with other electronic modules in
the vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) J1850 data bus circuit. The PCI data
bus circuit allows the sharing of sensor information.
This helps to reduce wire harness complexity, reduce
internal controller hardware, and reduce component
sensor current loads. At the same time, this system
provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics,
and allows the addition of many new feature capabil-
ities.
The EVIC ªMenuº push button provides the vehicle
operator with a user interface, which allows the
selection of several optional customer programmable
electronic features to suit individual preferences.
Refer toELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMA-
TION CENTER PROGRAMMINGin the Standard
Procedures section of this group for more information
on the customer programmable feature options.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional univer-
sal transmitter transceiver, the EVIC will also dis-
play messages and an icon indicating when the
universal transmitter transceiver is being trained,
which of the three transmitter buttons is transmit-
ting, and when the transceiver is cleared.
Data input for all EVIC functions, including VFD
dimming level, is received through the J1850 PCI
data bus circuit. The EVIC module uses its internal
programming and all of its data inputs to calculate
and display the requested data. If the data displayed
is incorrect, perform the self-diagnostic tests as
described in this group. If these tests prove inconclu-

STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HANDLING
AIRBAGS
DEPLOYED AIRBAG
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 AIRBAG
The airbags 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 carrying or han-
dling an undeployed airbag module, the trim side of
the airbag should be pointing away from the body to
minimize possibility of injury if accidental deploy-
ment occurs. Do not place undeployed airbag face
down on a solid surface, the airbag will propel into
the air if accidental deployment occurs.

CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHOR
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles manufactured for sale in the North Amer-
ican market are equipped with a Lower Anchors and
Tether for CHildren, or LATCH child restraint
anchorage system. The LATCH system provides for
the installation of suitable child restraints in certain
seating positions without using the standard equip-
ment seat belt provided for that seating position. The
second seat in these models are equipped with a
fixed-position child restraint upper tether anchor
(Fig. 3) and child restraint lower anchors (Fig. 2).
The third seat is equipped with only a fixed-position
child restraint upper tether anchor in the middle
seating position. Vehicles manufactured for sale out-
side of North America are equipped with fixed-posi-
tion child restraint upper tether anchors.
Vehicles manufactured for sale in North America
also have two lower anchors for each rear outboard
seating position (Fig. 2) in the second row seating
position. These anchors are welded to the seat cush-
ion frame. They are each accessed from the front of
their respective seats, at each side where the seat
back meets the seat cushion. These lower anchors
cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or dam-
aged, the seat must be replaced as a unit.

SPEED CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The speed control system is electronically con-
trolled and vacuum operated. The electronic control
is integrated into the Powertrain Control Module.
The controls are located on the steering wheel. The
ON/OFF, and SET buttons are located on the left side
of the airbag module. The RESUME/ACCEL, CAN-
CEL and COAST buttons are located on the right
side of the airbag module (Fig. 1).The system is designed to operate at speeds above
30 mph (48 km/h).
WARNING: THE USE OF SPEED CONTROL IS NOT
RECOMMENDED WHEN DRIVING CONDITIONS DO
NOT PERMIT MAINTAINING A CONSTANT SPEED,
SUCH AS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON ROADS THAT
ARE WINDING, ICY, SNOW COVERED, OR SLIP-
PERY.
OPERATION
OPERATION
When speed control is activated by depressing the
ON switch, the PCM allows a set speed to be stored
in RAM for speed control. To store a set speed,
depress and release the SET switch while the vehicle
is moving at a speed between 30 and 85 mph. In
order for the speed control to engage, the brakes can-
not be applied, nor can the gear selector be indicat-
ing the transmission is in Park or Neutral (ATX) or
1st/2nd gear (MTX). The speed control can be disen-
gaged manually by:
²Stepping on the brake pedal
²Depressing the OFF switch
²Depressing the CANCEL switch.
²Depressing the clutch pedal
²Operating in 1st or 2nd gear (autostick, if
equipped)

AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL OVERSPEED
REDUCTION
DESCRIPTION
Transmission control software includes an auto-
matic speed control overspeed reduction feature. This
maintains vehicle speed at the selected set point
when descending a grade.
OPERATION
The TCM (on SBEC vehicles) (PCM on NGC vehi-
cles) first senses that the speed control is set. If the
set speed is exceeded by more than 4 mph (6.5
km/hr) and the throttle is closed, the TCM (on SBEC
vehicles) (PCM on NGC vehicles) causes the trans-
axle to downshift to THIRD gear. After downshifting,
the automatic speed control resumes normal opera-
tion. To ensure that an upshift is appropriate after
the set speed is reached, the TCM (on SBEC vehi-
cles) (PCM on NGC vehicles) waits until the speed
control system opens the throttle at least 6 degrees
before upshifting to OVERDRIVE again.
If the driver applies the brakes, canceling auto-
matic speed control operation with the transaxle still
in THIRD gear, the TCM (on SBEC vehicles) (PCM
on NGC vehicles) maintains this gear until the driver
opens the throttle at least 6 degrees to avoid an inap-
propriate upshift. The upshift is also delayed for 2.5
seconds after reaching the 6 degrees throttle opening
in anticipation that the driver might open the throt-
tle enough to require THIRD gear. This will avoid
unnecessary and disturbing transmission cycling. If
the automatic speed control RESUME feature is used
after braking, the upshift is delayed until the set
speed is achieved to reduce cycling and provide bet-
ter response.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ROAD TEST
Perform a vehicle road test to verify reports of
speed control system malfunction. The road test
should include attention to the speedometer. Speed-
ometer operation should be smooth and without flut-
ter at all speeds.
Flutter in the speedometer indicates a problem
which might cause surging in the speed control sys-
tem. The cause of any speedometer problems should
be corrected before proceeding. Refer to the Instru-
ment Cluster for speedometer diagnosis.
If a road test verifies an inoperative system, and
the speedometer operates properly, check for:
²A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). If a DTC
exists, conduct tests per the Powertrain Diagnostic
Procedures manual.
²A misadjusted brake (stop) lamp switch. This
could also cause an intermittent problem.
²Loose or corroded electrical connections at the
servo. Corrosion should be removed from electrical
terminals and a light coating of Mopar Multipurpose
Grease, or equivalent, applied.
²Leaking vacuum reservoir.
²Loose or leaking vacuum hoses or connections.
²Defective one-way vacuum check valve.
²Secure attachment at both ends of the speed
control servo cable.
²Smooth operation of throttle linkage and throttle
body air valve.
²Conduct electrical test at PCM.
²Failed speed control servo. Do the servo vacuum
test.
CAUTION: When test probing for voltage or conti-
nuity at electrical connectors, care must be taken
not to damage connector, terminals or seals. If
these components are damaged, intermittent or
complete system failure may occur.

SERVO
DESCRIPTION
The servo unit consists of a solenoid valve body,
and a vacuum chamber. The solenoid valve body con-
tains three solenoids:
²Vacuum
²Vent
²Dump
The vacuum chamber contains a diaphragm with a
cable attached to control the throttle linkage.
OPERATION
The PCM controls the solenoid valve body. The
solenoid valve body controls the application and
release of vacuum to the diaphragm of the vacuum
servo. The servo unit cannot be repaired and is ser-
viced only as a complete assembly.
Power is supplied to the servo by the PCM through
the brake switch. The PCM controls the ground path
for the vacuum and vent solenoids.
The dump solenoid is energized anytime it receives
power. If power to the dump solenoid is interrupted,
the solenoid dumps vacuum in the servo. This pro-
vides a safety backup to the vent and vacuum sole-
noids.
The vacuum and vent solenoids must be grounded
by the PCM to operate. When the PCM grounds the
vacuum servo solenoid, the solenoid allows vacuum
to enter the servo and pull open the throttle plate
using the cable. When the PCM breaks the ground,
the solenoid closes and no more vacuum is allowed to
enter the servo. The PCM also operates the vent sole-
noid via ground. The vent solenoid opens and closes a
passage to bleed or hold vacuum in the servo as
required.
The PCM cycles the vacuum and vent solenoids to
maintain the set speed, or to accelerate and deceler-
ate the vehicle. To increase throttle opening, the
PCM grounds the vacuum and vent solenoids. To
decrease throttle opening, the PCM removes the
grounds from the vacuum and vent solenoids.
