CD CHANGER
DESCRIPTION
The 6 Disc In-Dash CD Changer (if equipped) is
located in the instrument panel below the radio. The
remote changer does not use a cartridge or magazine
for the CD's. Up to 6 CD's can be directly loaded into
this unit.
OPERATION
Due to its compact design, the CD changer can
carry out only one operation at a time. For example,
you can not load a new disc while playing another at
the same time. Each operation happens sequentially.
The radio unit provides control over all features of
the CD changer with the exception of the CD load
and eject functions, which are controlled by buttons
located on the front of the CD changer. All features
you would expect, such as Disc Up/Down, Track
Up/Down, Random and Scan are controlled by the
radio, which also displays all relevant CD changer
information on the radio display.
The CD changer contains a Eject button, six disc
buttons, an indicator LED for each of the six disc
positions as well as an illuminated disc opening. The
individual LED indicates whether a CD is currently
loaded in that particular chamber of the CD changer.
Pressing the individual button for a particular cham-
ber, then the Eject button will eject a disc currently
present in that chamber. If the chamber is currently
empty, actuating the individual button will position
that chamber to receive and load a new disc in that
chamber.

²System diagnostics - diagnosis and error han-
dling (sensors, display, module).
²Data exchange over the Programmable Commu-
nication Interface (PCI) data bus.
OPERATION
The module has a number of functions:
²Supply voltage to the sensors and display.
²Disconnection of the display with bus idle and
over voltage Vmax.
²Triggering the sensors.
²Analyze echo delay times and calculate obstacle
distances.
²Bi-directional data communication to the display
for diagnosis.
²System diagnostics - diagnosis and error han-
dling (sensors, display, module).
²Data exchange over the Programmable Commu-
nication Interface (PCI) data bus.
The system detection length from the rear of the
vehicle is 0.3 meters to 1.5 meters. This area extends
around the rear side of the vehicle. The system detec-
tion height from the ground is 0.2 meters to about
1.5 meters. The radio mutes when the system acti-
vates its audible tone.When the driver selects Reverse, the system scans
for objects behind the vehicle using four sensors
located in the rear bumper. Objects can be detected
from up to 1.5 meters. A warning display above the
rear window provides both visible and audible warn-
ings indicating the range of the object.
The system is active only when the vehicle is in
reverse for vehicle speeds less than 16 Km/h (10
mph). If the vehicles Parking/Emergency Brake is
applied, the system is deactivated.
The display contains two sets of yellow and red
Light Emitting Diode's (LED's) that the driver can
see as they look over their shoulder while backing
up. Each side of the vehicle has its own warning
LED's. The system provides a visual warning by illu-
minating one or more yellow LED's as the vehicle
gets closer to the object. As the vehicle continues to
approaches the object, one red LED is illuminated
and the system emits a series of short beeps. The
tone will remain constant and both red LED's are
illuminated once the vehicle is within 12 inches (30.5
cm) of the object.
The system can be turned ON or OFF through the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) when
the vehicle is in PARK. If the park assist system is
turned OFF, a single chime will sound and the EVIC
will display the following message ªREAR PARK
ASSIST OFFº, when the vehicle is in reverse.
²Ensure that the rear bumper is free of dirt and
debris to keep the system operating properly.
²Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations
could affect the performance of the system.
²Ensure that the parking brake is not applied.
If ªService Park Assist Systemº appears in the
EVIC after making sure the rear bumper is clean,
proceed to diagnose the system using a scan tool and
the appropriate diagnostic information.
To diagnose the Park Assist Module, use a scan
tool and the appropriate body diagnostic information.

By comparing the two inputs, the PCM can deter-
mine transaxle gear ratio. This is important to the
CVI calculation because the PCM determines CVIs
by monitoring how long it takes for a gear change to
occur (Fig. 10).
Gear ratios can be determined by using the DRB
Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sen-
sor values in the ªMonitorsº display. Gear ratio can
be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor value
by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000
rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the PCM can determine that the gear ratio is
2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio changes
to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied
and released. By monitoring the length of time it
takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift
request, the PCM can determine the volume of fluid
used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply
the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the vol-
ume of fluid need to apply the element increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the clutch
assemblies (broken return springs, out of position
snap rings, excessive clutch pack clearance, improper
assembly, etc.) can cause inadequate or out-of-range
clutch volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed
Sensors and wiring can cause these conditions. The
following chart identifies the appropriate clutch vol-
umes and when they are monitored/updated:

SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the PCM has programming
that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the follow-
ing:
²Shift lever position
²Throttle position²Engine load
²Fluid temperature
²Software level
As driving conditions change, the PCM appropri-
ately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the follow-
ing chart to determine the appropriate operation
expected, depending on driving conditions.

battery for a low electrolyte condition and before
returning the vehicle to service. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/CHARGING - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
for additional information.
The battery Group Size number, the Cold Cranking
Amperage (CCA) rating, and the Reserve Capacity
(RC) rating or Ampere-Hours (AH) rating can be
found on the original equipment battery label. Be
certain that a replacement battery has the correct
Group Size number, as well as CCA, and RC or AH
ratings that equal or exceed the original equipment
specification for the vehicle being serviced. (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM - SPECIFICA-
TIONS) for the proper factory-installed battery spec-
ifications.
OPERATION
The battery is designed to store electrical energy in
a chemical form. When an electrical load is applied to
the terminals of the battery, an electrochemical reac-
tion occurs. This reaction causes the battery to dis-
charge electrical current from its terminals. As the
battery discharges, a gradual chemical change takes
place within each cell. The sulfuric acid in the elec-
trolyte combines with the plate materials, causing
both plates to slowly change to lead sulfate. At the
same time, oxygen from the positive plate material
combines with hydrogen from the sulfuric acid, caus-
ing the electrolyte to become mainly water. The
chemical changes within the battery are caused by
the movement of excess or free electrons between the
positive and negative plate groups. This movement of
electrons produces a flow of electrical current
through the load device attached to the battery ter-
minals.
As the plate materials become more similar chem-
ically, and the electrolyte becomes less acid, the volt-
age potential of each cell is reduced. However, by
charging the battery with a voltage higher than that
of the battery itself, the battery discharging process
is reversed. Charging the battery gradually changes
the sulfated lead plates back into sponge lead and
lead dioxide, and the water back into sulfuric acid.
This action restores the difference in the electron
charges deposited on the plates, and the voltage
potential of the battery cells. For a battery to remain
useful, it must be able to produce high-amperage cur-
rent over an extended period. A battery must also be
able to accept a charge, so that its voltage potential
may be restored.
The battery is vented to release excess hydrogen
gas that is created when the battery is being charged
or discharged. However, even with these vents,
hydrogen gas can collect in or around the battery. If
hydrogen gas is exposed to flame or sparks, it may
ignite. If the electrolyte level is low, the battery mayarc internally and explode. If the battery is equipped
with removable cell caps, add distilled water when-
ever the electrolyte level is below the top of the
plates. If the battery cell caps cannot be removed, the
battery must be replaced if the electrolyte level
becomes low.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
BATTERY
The battery must be completely charged and the
terminals should be properly cleaned and inspected
before diagnostic procedures are performed. (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM - CLEANING)
for the proper cleaning procedures, and (Refer to 8 -

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST
A self-diagnostic test is used to determine that the
electronics module is operating properly, and that all
the PCI data bus messages are being received for ini-
tial operation. Initiate the self-diagnostic test as fol-
lows:
(1) With the ignition switch in the Off position, on
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) and
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) equipped vehi-
cles simultaneously depress and hold theSTEPand
theRESETbuttons. On Compass Temperature Mod-
ule (CT) equipped vehicles depress theC/Tand the
US/Mpush buttons.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(3) Following completion of these tests, the elec-
tronics module will display one of the following mes-
sages:
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.
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 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS VARIATION
ADJUSTMENT).
NOTE: If the compass reading display is blank and
only ªCALº appears in the display, demagnetizing
may be necessary to remove excessive residual
magnetic fields from the vehicle. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - STANDARD PRO-
CEDURE - COMPASS DEMAGNETIZING).
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 the vehicle may
acquire during normal use. If the compass readings
appear to be erratic or out of calibration, perform the
following calibration procedure. Also, new service
replacement Electronic Modules (EVIC, CMTC, CT)
must have their compass calibrated using this proce-
dure. Do not attempt to calibrate the compass near
large metal objects such as other vehicles, large
buildings, or bridges; or, near overhead or under-
ground power lines.
NOTE: Whenever the compass is calibrated manu-
ally, the variance number must also be reset. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS VARIATION
ADJUSTMENT).
Calibrate the compass manually as follows:
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. If
the compass/thermometer data is not currently being
displayed, momentarily depress and release the C/T
push button to reach the compass/thermometer dis-
play.
(2) On Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) and Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
equipped vehicles depress the Reset push button and
hold the button until ªCALº appears in the display.
This takes about ten seconds, and appears about five
seconds after ªVAR = XXº is displayed. On Compass
Temperature Module (CT) equipped vehicles depress
the C/T push button and US/M push button down
until ªCALº appears in the display. This takes about
ten seconds, and appears about five seconds after
ªVAR = XXº is displayed.
(3) Release the push button(s).
(4) Drive the vehicle on a level surface, away from
large metal objects and power lines, through three or
more complete circles at between five and eight kilo-
meters-per-hour (three and five miles-per-hour) for a
minimum of 48 seconds. The ªCALº message will dis-
appear from the display to indicate that the compass
is now calibrated.
NOTE: If the ªCALº message remains in the display,
either there is excessive magnetism near the com-
pass, or the unit is faulty. Repeat the calibration
procedure one more time.

NOTE: If the wrong direction is still indicated in the
compass display, the area selected for calibration
may be too close to a strong magnetic field. Repeat
the calibration procedure in another location.
COMPASS DEMAGNETIZING
A degaussing tool (Special Tool 6029) is used to
demagnetize, or degauss, the overhead console for-
ward mounting screw and the roof panel above the
overhead console. Equivalent units must be rated as
continuous duty for 110/115 volts and 60 Hz. They
must also have a field strength of over 350 gauss at 7
millimeters (0.25 inch) beyond the tip of the probe.
To demagnetize the roof panel and the overhead
console forward mounting screw, proceed as follows:
(1) Be certain that the ignition switch is in the Off
position, before you begin the demagnetizing proce-
dure.
(2) Connect the degaussing tool (Fig. 1) to an elec-
trical outlet, while keeping the tool at least 61 centi-
meters (2 feet) away from the compass unit.
(3) Slowly approach the head of the overhead con-
sole forward mounting screw with the degaussing
tool connected.
(4) Contact the head of the screw with the plastic
coated tip of the degaussing tool for about two sec-
onds.
(5) With the degaussing tool still energized, slowly
back it away from the screw. When the tip of the tool
is at least 61 centimeters (2 feet) from the screw
head, disconnect the tool.
(6) Place a piece of paper approximately 22 by 28
centimeters (8.5 by 11 inches), oriented on the vehicle
lengthwise from front to rear, on the center line of
the roof at the windshield header (Fig. 2). The pur-
pose of the paper is to protect the roof panel from
scratches, and to define the area to be demagnetized.
(7) Connect the degaussing tool to an electrical
outlet, while keeping the tool at least 61 centimeters
(2 feet) away from the compass unit.
(8) Slowly approach the center line of the roof
panel at the windshield header, with the degaussing
tool connected.(9) Contact the roof panel with the plastic coated
tip of the degaussing tool. Be sure that the template
is in place to avoid scratching the roof panel. Using a
slow, back-and-forth sweeping motion, and allowing
13 millimeters (0.50 inch) between passes, move the
tool at least 11 centimeters (4 inches) to each side of
the roof center line, and 28 centimeters (11 inches)
back from the windshield header.
(10) With the degaussing tool still energized,
slowly back it away from the roof panel. When the
tip of the tool is at least 61 centimeters (2 feet) from
the roof panel, disconnect the tool.
(11) Calibrate the compass and adjust the compass
variance (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
COMPASS VARIATION ADJUSTMENT
Compass variance, also known as magnetic decli-
nation, is the difference in angle between magnetic
north and true geographic north. In some geographic
locations, the difference between magnetic and geo-
graphic north is great enough to cause the compass
to give false readings. If this problem occurs, the
compass variance setting may need to be changed.
To set the compass variance:

COMPASS/MINI-TRIP
COMPUTER
DESCRIPTION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) module
is located in the overhead console. The CMTC con-
sists of a electronic control module with a vacuum
fluorescent display (VFD) and function switches. The
CMTC consists of a electronic module that displays
compass, trip computer, and temperature features.
Actuating the STEP push button will cause the
CMTC to change mode of operation when the ignition
is ON. Example:
²Average miles per gallon (ECO)
²Distance to empty (DTE)
²Instant miles per gallon (ECO)
²Trip odometer (ODO)
²Elapsed time (ET)
²Blank
Actuating the C/T push button will cause the
CMTC to change to the Compass/Temperature dis-
play.
OPERATION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) module
in the overhead console has buttons used to select
various functions. The CMTC selector buttons will
not operate until the ignition is in the RUN position.
When the ignition switch is first turned to the
RUN position the CMTC display;
²Blanks momentarily
²All segments of the VFD will light for one sec-
ond
²Blanks momentarily
²Returns to the last mode setting selected before
the ignition was last switched OFF.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
COMPASS MINI-TRIP COMPUTER
Any diagnosis of the compass mini-trip com-
puter should begin with the use of the DRB IIIt
diagnostic tool. For information on the use of
the DRB IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnos-
tic Procedures information.
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) data is
obtained from the Body Control Module (BCM) on
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
Data Bus circuit. The CMTC will display dashes (- -)
for any of the screens it did not receive the bus mes-
sages. The label corresponding to the missing infor-
mation will be lit. If no CMTC data is displayed,
check the PCI Data Bus circuit communications and
the BCM. If the dimming level is improper check the
PCI Data Bus circuit.
