HEADLAMP
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEADLAMP
When a vehicle experiences problems with the
headlamp system, verify the condition of the battery
connections, fuses, charging system, headlamp bulbs,
wire connectors, relay, high beam switch, dimmer
switch, and headlamp switch. Refer to the appropri-
ate wiring information.
Each vehicle is equipped with various lamp assem-
blies. A good ground is necessary for proper lighting
operation. Grounding is provided by the lamp socketwhen it comes in contact with the metal body, or
through a separate ground wire.
When changing lamp bulbs check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean it with a wire
brush.
When it is necessary to remove components to ser-
vice another, it should not be necessary to apply
excessive force or bend a component to remove it.
Before damaging a trim component, verify hidden
fasteners or captured edges are not holding the com-
ponent in place.

AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Ambient air temperature is monitored by the over-
head console through ambient temperature messages
received from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus circuit. The PCM receives a hard
wired input from the ambient temperature sensor.
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable resis-
tor mounted to a bracket that is secured with a screw
to the right side of the headlamp mounting module
grille opening, behind the radiator grille and in front
of the engine compartment.
For additional information on the PCM, (Refer to 8
- ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE -
DESCRIPTION).
OPERATION
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable
resistor that operates on a five-volt reference signal
sent by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The
resistance in the sensor changes as temperature
changes, changing the temperature sensor signal cir-
cuit voltage to the PCM. Based upon the resistance
in the sensor, the PCM senses a specific voltage on
the temperature sensor signal circuit, which it is pro-
grammed to correspond to a specific temperature.
The PCM then sends the proper ambient tempera-
ture messages to the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
over the Programmable Communication Interface
(PCI) data bus.
The thermometer function is supported by the
ambient temperature sensor, a wiring circuit, the
PCM, the PCI data bus, and the Electronics module.
If any portion of the ambient temperature sensor cir-
cuit fails, the PCM will self-diagnose the circuit.
The ambient temperature sensor circuit can also be
diagnosed manually (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
OVERHEAD CONSOLE/AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AMBIENT TEM-
PERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT). If the temperature
sensor and circuit are confirmed to be OK, but the
temperature display is inoperative or incorrect,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING) to determine the cause.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropri-
ate wiring information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire har-
ness connector.
(2) Measure the resistance of the ambient temper-
ature sensor. At room temperature (approx. 68ÉF),
the sensor resistance should be between 10-13 Kilo-
hms. The sensor resistance should be between these
two values at 68ÉF. If the resistance is out of range
replace the ambient temperature sensor.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire har-
ness connector and the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) wire harness connector.
8M - 12 OVERHEAD CONSOLERS
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER (Continued)

NOTE: Turning the system off by depressing the
OFF switch or turning off the ignition switch will
erase the set speed stored in the PCM.
For added safety, the speed control system is pro-
grammed to disengage for any of the following condi-
tions:
²An indication of Park or Neutral
²A rapid increase rpm (indicates that the clutch
has been disengaged)
²Excessive engine rpm (indicates that the trans-
mission may be in a low gear)
²The speed signal increases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the co-efficient of friction
between the road surface and tires is extremely low)
²The speed signal decreases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the vehicle may have
decelerated at an extremely high rate)
²If the actual speed is greater than 20 mph over
the set speed.
²Autostick shifts into 1st or 2nd gear (autostick,
if equipped)
Once the speed control has been disengaged,
depressing the RESUME switch when speed is
greater than 20 mph allows the vehicle to resume
control to the target speed that was stored in the
PCM.
While the speed control is engaged, the driver can
increase the vehicle speed by depressing the ACCEL
switch. The new target speed is stored in the PCM
when the ACCEL switch is released. The PCM also
has a9tap-up9feature in which target speed
increases by 2 mph for each momentary switch acti-
vation of the ACCEL switch. The PCM also provides
a means to decelerate to a new lower target speed
without disengaging speed control. Depress and hold
the COAST switch until the desired speed is reached,
then release the switch.
The PCM also has a ªTap Downº feature in which
target speed decreases at 1 mph for each momentary
switch activation of the coast switch.
OPERATION - INTERACTIVE SPEED CONTROL
(4 Speed EATX Only)
Interactive means that communication between the
PCM and the TCM is taking place, this communica-
tion is internal to the PCM on NGC vehicles. Inter-
active speed control avoids unnecessary shifting for
smoother, quieter operation and when downshifts are
required, makes the shifts smoother.
CLIMBING A GRADE
DESCRIPTION
When climbing a grade the interactive speed con-
trol tries to maintain the set speed by increasing thethrottle opening, while inhibiting/delaying down-
shifts.
OPERATION
If opening the throttle alone cannot maintain the
set speed and the vehicle speed drops more than
three mph below the set speed, the transmission will
downshift to third gear. If the vehicle continues to
lose speed, by more than 6 mph, the transmission
will downshift again to maintain the set speed. After
the vehicle encounters a less-steep grade, or has
crested the grade (reduced the load on the power-
train) and can maintain the set speed at a reduced
throttle position, the transmission will upshift, as
appropriate, until the set speed can be maintained in
Overdrive.
GRADE HUNTING
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles equipped with a four speed automatic
transmission have a grade hunting feature for the
2nd to 3rd gear upshift and the 3rd to Overdrive
upshift.
OPERATION
The PCM on NGC vehicles identifies the power-
train loading conditions and selects the proper gear
to maintain the current vehicle speed. Under moder-
ate loading conditions the transaxle will stay in 3rd
gear until the top of the grade is reached or the pow-
ertrain loading is reduced.
If powertrain loading is severe, the transaxle may
shift into 2nd gear and remain there until power-
train loading is reduced, then a 2nd to 3rd gear
upshift will be scheduled. Grade hunting features
always operate regardless of whether or not the
interactive speed control is engaged.If the interac-
tive speed control is not engaged and power-
train loading is not reduced, the driver may
have to completely lift off of the throttle before
an upshift will occur. If the driver does lift off the
throttle to induce an upshift under these conditions,
vehicle speed will reduce and the Overdrive to 3rd
and 3rd to 2nd gear downshifts will reoccur when the
throttle is reapplied. If grade hunting is repeatedly
induced by the driver, transaxle damage may result.
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.

uum is supplied from the brake booster check valve.
The speed control vacuum supply hose has a check
valve at the source (brake booster) to maintain the
highest available vacuum level in the servo, reservoir
and vacuum hoses. When engine vacuum drops, as in
climbing a grade while driving, the reservoir supplies
the vacuum needed to maintain proper speed control
operation. The vacuum reservoir cannot be repaired
and must be replaced if faulty.

VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY
DESCRIPTION
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) is
designed to protect against whole vehicle theft. The
system monitors vehicle doors, and ignition action for
unauthorized operation (hood and liftgate for RG -
Export). The alarm activates:
²Sounding of the horn
²Flashing of the headlamps/park/tail lamps
²Flashing of the headlamps
²An engine kill feature (with SKREES)
SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM
The Sentry Key Remote Entry System (SKREES)
is available as a factory-installed option on this vehi-
cle. It is designed to provide passive protection
against unauthorized vehicle use by disabling the
engine, after two (2) seconds of running, whenever an
invalid key is used to start the vehicle. The SKIS is
active whenever the ignition is on and does not
require any customer intervention. The primary com-
ponents of the system are the Sentry Key Remote
Entry Module (SKREEM), Sentry Key (integrated
key with tranponder and RKE on a circuit board),
indicator light, Body Control Module (BCM), and the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The SKREEM is
mounted to the steering column with the molded,
integral antenna mounted on the ignition housing.
The indicator light, is located in the Mechanical
Instrument Cluster (MIC).
OPERATION
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM
Upon failure of proper Sentry Key Remote Entry
Module (SKREEM) communication to the PCM, the
PCM will shut off fuel after two seconds of run time.
The engine will not re-crank on the key cycle that
the failure occurred, a full key down sequence must
be performed for the engine to crank again. After six
consecutive fuel shut-offs, the engine will no longer
crank on subsequent key cycles. The failure must be
corrected and a valid communication process between
the SKREEM and the PCM must occur for the
engine to crank and start again.
The electronics for the VTSS are part of the Body
Control Module (BCM). The system is armed when
the vehicle is locked using the:
²Power door lock switches (with any door ajar)
²Remote Keyless Entry integrated key.
²Door Cylinder Lock Switches (RG only).
For vehicles equipped with Sentry Key Remote
Entry System (SKREES), the doors do not have to be
locked to enable the fuel shut off feature.
After the vehicle is locked and the last door is
closed, the set LED indicator in the Mechanical
Instrument Cluster (MIC) will flash quickly for 16
seconds, indicating that arming is in progress. If no
monitored systems are activated during this period,
the system will arm. The LED will extinguish unless
the liftgate is open. If the liftgate is open, the LED
will flash at a slower rate. This indicates that the
system is armed.
RSVEHICLE THEFT SECURITY8Q-1

RG Only- If fault is detected on the driver key
cylinder input, the indicator LED will remain solid
during the arming process, although the system will
still arm.
If the indicator LED does not illuminate at all
upon door closing it indicates that the system is not
arming.
Passive disarming occurs upon normal vehicle
entry by unlocking either door with the remote trans-
mitter (RG - ignition key or remote transmitter). This
disarming will also halt the alarm once it has been
activated.
A tamper alert exists to notify the driver that the
VTSS had been activated. This alert consists of 3
horn pulses when the vehicle is disarmed.
NOTE: The VTSS will not arm by pushing down the
door lock mechanism. This will manually override
the system.
RG Only- For Door Cylinder Lock Switch
Removal and Installation, refer to Electrical, Power
Locks, Door Cylinder Lock Switch.
If the VTSS is triggered, the horn will pulse, head-
lamps/marker lamps will flash, and the VTSS warn-
ing lamp will flash. If BCM determines the threat to
be false and the VTSS is not triggered again, the sys-
tem will shut down and rearm itself after three min-
utes. If a trigger is still active, the alarm will
continue for an additional 15 minutes without the
horn. The VTSS monitors the passenger compart-
ment (for RG - Export it also monitors the engine
compartment. If a malfunction occurs in the engine
compartment, the passenger compartment would still
arm and function normally).
NOTE: System will not arm if passenger compart-
ment is not secure.
NOTE: (RG - Export - If hood is not secure during
the arming sequence, the lamp will stay lit and not
flash. The system will arm with hood not secured
and the liftgate open).
ARMING THE VTSS - METHOD A
(1) With the key removed from the ignition lock
and any door open (excluding liftgate), actuate one of
the following:
²Power door lock button to LOCK,
²Key fob LOCK button
²Driver door lock key cylinder to locked position
(RG Only).
(2) Close all opened doors. Liftgate can remain
open.(3) After the last door is closed, an arming time-
out period of sixteen seconds will start, then the
VTSS will become armed.
ARMING THE VTSS - METHOD B
Actuating the key fob transmitter LOCK button,
key locking the front doors with the doors closed and
the ignition locked will begin the arming time-out
period. If method A, 16 second time-out sequence was
in process when method B was actuated, the 16 sec-
ond time-out will restart from the time of the second
actuation.
If the security lamp does not illuminate at all upon
final door closure, it indicates that the system is not
arming.
The current VTSS status armed or disarmed shall
be maintained in memory to prevent battery discon-
nects from disarming the system.
TRIGGERING THE VTSS
After the VTSS is armed, the following actions will
trigger the alarm:
²Opening any door (liftgate - only if opening via
liftgate button on key fob).
²Opening the hood (RG - Export)
²Turning the ignition to the RUN position.
NOTE: When the VTSS is ARMED, the interior
power door lock switch ªUNLOCKº will be disabled
until the vehicle is disarmed.
CAUTION: The VTSS indicator LED will trigger and
engine will continue to run if the vehicle is
equipped with SKREES and the proper key is used
to start the vehicle. This condition will occur if the
VTSS has been triggered. If valid key is used, VTSS
will disarm
SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM
The SKREES includes keys from the factory which
are pre-programmed. Each SKREEM will recognize a
maximum of eight Sentry Keys. If the customer
would like to own additional keys other than those
provided with the vehicle, they can be purchased
from any authorized dealer. These keys must be pro-
grammed to the SKREEM on the vehicle in order for
the system to recognize them as valid keys. This can
be done by the dealer with a DRBllltscan tool or by
a customer if this feature is available in their market
and they have two (2) valid keys already available to
them. Refer to the Service Procedures portion of this
system for additional details. The SKREES performs
a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to
the ON position and will store Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTC's) if a system malfunction is detected.
8Q - 2 VEHICLE THEFT SECURITYRS
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY (Continued)

(PCM) based upon the results. The ªVALID/INVALID
KEYº message communication is performed using a
rolling code algorithm via the Programmable Com-
munication Interface (PCI) data bus. A ªVALID KEYº
message must be sent to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) within two seconds of ignition ON to
free the engine from immobilization.
The SKREEM contains a Radio Frequency (RF)
transceiver and a microprocessor. The SKREEM
retains in memory the ID numbers of any Sentry Key
that is programmed to it. The maximum number of
keys that may be programmed to each module is
eight (8). The SKREEM also communicates over the
Programmable Communication Interface (PCI) data
bus with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the
Body Control Module (BCM), the Mechanical Instru-
ment Cluster (MIC), and the DRB IIItscan tool. The
SKREEM transmits and receives RF signals through
a tuned antenna enclosed within a molded plastic
ring formation that is integral to the SKREEM hous-
ing. When the SKREEM is properly installed on the
steering column, the antenna ring fits snugly around
the circumference of the ignition lock cylinder hous-
ing. If this ring is not mounted properly, communica-
tion problems may arise in the form of transponder-
related faults.
For added system security, each SKREEM is pro-
grammed with a unique9Secret Key9code. This code
is stored in memory and is sent over the PCI bus to
the PCM and to each key that is programmed to
work with the vehicle. The9Secret Key9code is there-
fore a common element found in all components of
the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS). In the
event that a SKREEM replacement is required, the
9Secret Key9code can be restored from the PCM by
following the SKIM replacement procedure found in
the DRB IIItscan tool. Proper completion of this
task will allow the existing ignition keys to be repro-
grammed. Therefore, new keys will NOT be needed.
In the event that the original9Secret Key9code can
not be recovered, new ignition keys will be required.
The DRB IIItscan tool will alert the technician if
key replacement is necessary. Another security code,
called a PIN, is used to gain secured access to the
SKREEM for service. The SKREEM also stores in its
memory the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN),
which it learns through a bus message from the
assembly plant tester. The SKIS scrambles the infor-
mation that is communicated between its components
in order to reduce the possibility of unauthorized
SKREEM access and/or disabling.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE)
The RKE transmitter uses radio frequency signals
to communicate with the SKREEM. The SKREEM is
on the PCI bus. When the operator presses a buttonon the transmitter, it sends a specific request to the
SKREEM. In turn the SKREEM sends the appropri-
ate request over the PCI Bus to the:
²Body Control Module (BCM) to control the door
lock and unlock functions, the liftgate lock and
unlock functions, the arming and disarming of the
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) (if equipped),
and the activation of illuminated entry.
²Integrated Power Module (IPM) to activate the
park lamps, the headlamps, and the horn for horn
chirp. If requested, the BCM sends a request over
the PCI Bus to the:
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING (TPM)
If equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) System, each of the vehicles four wheels will
have a valve stem with a pressure sensor and radio
transmitter built in. Signals from the tire pressure
sensor/transmitter are received and interpreted by
the SKREEM.
A sensor/transmitter in a mounted wheel will
broadcast its detected pressure once per minute
when the vehicle is moving faster than 15 mph (24
km/h). Each sensor/transmitter's broadcast is
uniquely coded so that the SKREEM can determine
the location.
OPERATION
SENTRY KEY IMMOBILIZER
The Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM)
receives an encrypted Radio Frequency (RF) signal
from the transponder key. The SKREEM then
decrypts the signal and broadcasts the requested
remote commands to the appropriate modules in the
vehicle over the Programmable Communication
Interface (PCI) data bus. A valid transponder key ID
must be incorporated into the RF signal in order for
the SKREEM to pass the message on to the appro-
priate modules.
Automatic transponder key synchronization is done
by the SKREEM if a valid transponder key is
inserted into the ignition cylinder, and the ignition is
turned ON. This provides a maximum operation win-
dow for RKE functions.
Each Sentry Key Remote Entry System (SKREES)
consists of a SKREEM and a transponder key. Each
system has a secret key code unique to that system.
The secret key is electronically coded in the
SKREEM and in all programmed transponder keys.
It is used for immobilization and RKE functions for
data security. In addition, each transponder key will
have a unique identification. For North America, the
options are a 3-button or 6 button integrated keys.
For Export, the options are 2-button or 5 button key
fobs. (Export does not get the integrated key).
8Q - 4 VEHICLE THEFT SECURITYRS
SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY MODULE (Continued)

When the ignition switch is moved to the RUN
position, the SKREEM transmits an Radio Frequency
(RF) signal to the transponder in the ignition key.
The SKREEM then waits for a response RF signal
from the transponder in the key. If the response
received identifies the key as valid, the SKREEM
sends a9valid key9message to the Powertrain Con-
trol Module (PCM) over the Programmable Commu-
nication Interface (PCI) data bus. If the response
received identifies the key as invalid or no response
is received from the transponder in the ignition key,
the SKREEM sends an9invalid key9message to the
PCM. The PCM will enable or disable engine opera-
tion based upon the status of the SKREEM mes-
sages. It is important to note that the default
condition in the PCM is9invalid key.9Therefore, if no
response is received by the PCM, the engine will be
immobilized after two (2) seconds of running.
The SKREEM also sends indicator light status
messages to the Mechanical Instrument Cluster
(MIC) to operate the light. This is the method used to
turn the light ON solid or to flash it after the indi-
cator light test is complete to signify a fault in the
SKREES. If the light comes ON and stays ON solid
after the indicator light test, this signifies that the
SKREEM has detected a system malfunction and/or
that the SKREES has become inoperative. If the
SKREEM detects an invalid keyORa key-related
fault exists, the indicator light will flash following
the indicator light test. The SKREEM may also
request an audible chime if the customer key pro-
gramming feature is available and the procedure is
being utilized (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY/TRANSPONDER KEY - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE).
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE)
After pressing the lock button on the RKE trans-
mitter, all of the door locks will lock, the illuminated
entry will turn off (providing all doors are closed),
and the VTSS (if equipped) will arm. After pressing
the unlock button, on the RKE transmitter, one time,
the driver door lock will unlock, the illuminated
entry will turn on the courtesy lamps, and the VTSS
(if equipped) will disarm. After pressing the unlock
button a second time, the remaining door locks will
unlock. The Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) or the DRBIIItscan tool can reprogram this
feature to unlock all of the door locks with one press
of the unlock button. If the vehicle is equipped with
the memory system, the memory message will iden-
tify which transmitter (1 or 2) sent the signal.The SKREEM is capable of retaining up to 8 indi-
vidual access codes (8 transmitters). If the PRNDL is
in any position except park, the SKREEM will dis-
able the RKE. The 4 button transmitter uses
1-CR2032 battery. The minimum battery life is
approximately 4.7 years based on 20 transmissions a
day at 84ÉF (25ÉC). Use the DRBIIItscan tool or the
Miller Tool 9001 RF Detector to test the RKE trans-
mitter. Use the DRBIIItor the customer program-
ming method to program the RKE system. However,
the SKREEM will only allow RKE programming
when the ignition is in the ON position, the PRNDL
is in park position, and the VTSS (if equipped) is dis-
armed.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING (TPM)
The SKREEM monitors the signals from the tire
pressure sensor/transmitters and determines if any
tire has gone below the low pressure threshold LOW
TIRE PRESSURE THRESHOLDS table.

key in the ignition has already been programmed
into that vehicle's SKREEM.
²(Eight Keys Already Learned (At The Maxi-
mum) Programming Not Done(is displayed if
eight keys have already been programmed into the
SKREEM. In this case, if a new key needs to be
added due to a lost or defective key, the9Erase All
Keys9command (which requires entering the Secured
Access Mode) has to be performed. Following the
9Erase All Keys9command, all keys that will be used
to operate the vehicleMUSTbe reprogrammed to
the SKREEM.
²(Programming Not Attempted(is displayed
after an9Erase All Keys9function is executed.
²(Programming Key Failed(is displayed if fur-
ther diagnosis is required.
To learn additional keys, turn the ignition OFF,
remove the learned key, insert the next new blank
key, and repeat the steps from the beginning.
ªCUSTOMER LEARNº MODE
This feature is only available on domestic vehicles
or those which have a U.S. country code designator.
This procedure requires access to at least two valid
Sentry Keys. If two valid Sentry Keys are not avail-
able, Sentry Key programming will require the use of
a DRBIIItscan tool.
The steps required to program Sentry Keys with
two valid Sentry Keys follows:
(1) Obtain the blank Sentry Key(s) that need to be
programmed. Cut the keys to match the ignition lock
cylinder mechanical key codes.
(2) Insert one of the two valid Sentry Keys into the
ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the
ON position.
(3) After the ignition switch has been in the ON
position for longer than three seconds, but no more
than fifteen seconds, cycle the ignition switch back tothe OFF position. Replace the first valid Sentry Key
in the ignition lock cylinder with the second valid
Sentry Key and turn the ignition switch back to the
ON position. The second valid Sentry Key must be
inserted within 15 seconds of removing the first valid
Sentry key.
(4) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
3, the indicator light will start to flash and a single
audible chime tone will sound to indicate that the
system has entered the9Customer Learn9program-
ming mode.
(5) Within sixty seconds of entering the9Customer
Learn9programming mode, turn the ignition switch
to the OFF position, replace the valid Sentry Key
with a blank Sentry Key transponder, and turn the
ignition switch back to the ON position.
(6) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
5, a single audible chime tone will sound and the
indicator light will stop flashing and stay on solid for
three seconds and then turn off to indicate that the
blank Sentry Key has been successfully programmed.
The SKREES will immediately exit the9Customer
Learn9programming mode and the vehicle may be
started using the newly programmed Sentry Key.
NOTE: The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Transmitter
will also be programmed during this procedure.
These steps must be completed in their entirety for
each additional Sentry Key to be programmed. If any
of the above steps are not completed in the given
sequence, or within the allotted time, the SKREES
will exit the9Customer Learn9programming mode
and the programming will be unsuccessful. The
SKREES will also automatically exit the9Customer
Learn9programming mode if:
²It sees a non-blank Sentry Key when it should
see a blank.
²If it has already programmed four (4) valid Sen-
try Keys.
²If the ignition switch is turned to the OFF posi-
tion for more than about fifty (50) seconds.
NOTE: If you attempt to start the vehicle while in
ªCustomer Learnº mode (LED flashing), the vehicle
will behave as though an invalid key is being used
(i.e. the engine will stall after two (2) seconds of
running). No faults will be logged.
NOTE: Once a Sentry Key has been programmed to
a particular vehicle, it cannot be used on any other
vehicle.

DESCRIPTION
FRONT WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch when the ignition switch is
in the RUN or ACCESSORY positions. The wind-
shield wiper system is protected by a 30 amp fuse (9)
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) part
of the Integrated Power Module (IPM) in the engine
compartment. The wiper/washer switch is integral to
the multi-function switch. It is a resistive MUX
switch that sends inputs to the BCM to operate the
wiper/washer system.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The rear windshield wiper and washers can be
operated when the ignition switch is in the RUN
position.
If equipped with Manual Temperature Controls
(MTC), the rear wiper/washer switch is integral to
the HVAC control unit. It replaces what was formerly
the ON/OFF switch. If equipped with Automatic Tem-
perature Controls (ATC), the rear wiper/washer
switch is located on the accessory switch panel in the
center stack of the instrument panel.
