COOLING
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - COOLING SYSTEM
The cooling system components consist of a radia-
tor, electric fan motors, shroud, pressure cap, thermo-
stat, transmission oil cooler, water pump, hoses,
clamps, coolant, and a coolant reserve system to com-
plete the circuit.
DESCRIPTION - HOSE CLAMPS
The cooling system uses spring type hose clamps.
If a spring type clamp replacement is necessary,
replace with the original Mopartequipment spring
type clamp.
CAUTION: A number or letter is stamped into the
tongue of constant tension clamps. If replacement
is necessary, use only a original equipment clamp
with matching number or letter (Fig. 1).

OPERATION
OPERATION - COOLING SYSTEM
The engine cooling systems primary purpose is to
maintain engine temperature in a range that will
provide satisfactory engine performance and emission
levels under all expected driving conditions. It also
provides hot water (coolant) for heater performance
and cooling for automatic transmission oil. It does
this by transferring heat from engine metal to cool-
ant, moving this heated coolant to the radiator, and
then transferring this heat to the ambient air.
²When engine is cold: thermostat is closed, cool-
ing system has no flow through the radiator. The
coolant bypass flows through the engine only.
²When engine is warm: thermostat is open, cool-
ing system has bypass flow and coolant flow through
radiator.
Coolant flow circuits for the 2.4L and 3.3/3.8L
engines are shown in (Fig. 2).
OPERATION - HOSE CLAMPS
The spring type hose clamp applies constant ten-
sion on a hose connection. To remove a spring type
hose clamp, use Special Tool 6094 or equivalent, con-
stant tension clamp pliers (Fig. 3) to compress the
hose clamp.

ENGINE
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE COOLING
SYSTEM
Establish what driving condition caused the cooling
system complaint. The problem may be caused by an
abnormal load on the system such as the following:
prolonged idle, very high ambient temperature, slight
tail wind at idle, slow traffic speed, traffic jam, high
speed, steep grade.
DRIVING TECHNIQUES
To avoid overheating the cooling system:
(1) Idle with A/C off when temperature gauge is at
end of normal range.
(2) Do not increase engine speed for more air flow
and coolant flow because the electric motor fan sys-
tems are not responsive to engine RPM. The added
cooling from higher coolant flow rate is more than
offset by increased heat rejection (engine heat added
to coolant).
TRAILER TOWING
Consult the owner's manual under Trailer Towing
and do not exceed specified limits.
VISUAL INSPECTION
If the cooling system problem is not caused by a
driving condition, perform a visual inspection to
determine if there was a recent service or accident
repair, including the following:
²Loose/damaged water pump drive belt
²Incorrect cooling system refilling (trapped air or
low level)
²Brakes possibly dragging
²Damaged hoses
²Loose/damaged hose clamps
²Damaged/incorrect engine thermostat
²Damaged cooling fan motor, fan blade and fan
shroud
²Damaged head gasket
²Damaged water pump
²Damaged radiator
²Damaged coolant recovery system
²Damaged heater core
²Open/shorted electrical circuits
If the visual inspection reveals none of the above
as cause for a cooling system complaint, refer to the
following diagnostic charts.

CHIME/BUZZER
DESCRIPTION
The chime/buzzer system provides the driver with
warning chimes for:
²Seat Belt
²Exterior Lamps ON
²Key-In Ignition
²Engine Temperature Critical
²Turn Signals ON
²Dome Lamp ON
²Low Oil Pressure
²High Speed Warning
²Warning Lamp Announcement
²Key-In Accessory
²Low/High Tire Pressure
²Service Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM)
HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
The chime will sound, acting as a warning to the
driver that the vehicle speed has exceeded 120 3
Kp/h (75 2 mph).
Refer to the proper body diagnostic information
diagnosis and testing with a scan tool.
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
The Park Assist System is an electronic parking
aid that alerts the driver to obstacles which are
located immediately behind the vehicle. Objects are
sensed using ultrasonic sound waves. When an object
is detected, the system will give the driver visual and
audible warnings. The system is customer program-
mable through the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) but will be enabled from the factory
as a default.
The major components of the park assist system
are:²Park Assist Module- supplies voltage to the
object detection sensors and park assist display. It
triggers the sensors, analyzes the echo delay times
and calculates obstacle distances. It sends display
information to the park assist display, performs sys-
tem diagnostics, and communicates via the Program-
mable Communication Interface (PCI) date bus
network.
²Park Assist Sensors- there are four sensors
located in the rear bumper that generate ultrasonic
pulses when triggered by the park assist module. The
sensors signal the park assist module when reflected
ultrasonic pulses are received.
²Park Assist Display- there are sixteen Light
Emitting Diode (LED) indicators which provide indi-
cation of relative distance to obstacles. When the sys-
tem is engaged and no obstacles are detected, the
two outermost yellow LED's are lit at reduced bright-
ness to show the system is working. As the distance
to a detected obstacle decreases, more yellow LED's
towards the center of the display illuminate.
For diagnosis and testing of the park assist sys-
tem, use a scan tool and the appropriate body diag-
nostic information.
OPERATION
Refer to the proper Body Diagnostic Procedures
manual for complete chime/buzzer operation and con-
ditions for operation.
HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
When the vehicle speed sensor sees 120 3 Km/h
(75 2 mph), it sends a PCI data bus message to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM then turns on
the chime to let the driver know that the vehicle has
reached a speed greater than 120 3 Km/h (75 2
mph). This audible message will continue until the
vehicle is slowed below the predetermined speed.

PARK ASSIST DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION
The Park Assist Display is located in the rear of
vehicle, over the rear window in the headliner (Fig.
1). It is a molded plastic unit housing Light Emitting
Diodes (LED's) and a chime module. Located in the
rear of the vehicle for easy visual reference when the
driver is backing up.
The display is used to alert the driver of any obsta-
cles detected in the rear of the vehicle. The chime or
audible signal also comes from the display unit.
OPERATION
When the ignition is put in the RUN position, all
the Light Emitting Diodes (LED's) will illuminate for
approximately one second. This will be interrupted if
the system senses an obstacle.
The ready status will be sensed by the outermost
two yellow LED's being illuminated at 50% intensity.
As the obstacle is sensed, the yellow LED's will start
illuminating inward until the object in approximately
one foot away and then the inner red LED will light.
The display is sensitive to which side of the rear of
the vehicle that the object is detected. If on the left
rear, the left segments will light and the same for the
right side of the vehicle.

The BCM utilizes integrated circuitry and informa-
tion carried on the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network along with many
hard wired inputs to monitor many sensor and
switch inputs throughout the vehicle. In response to
those inputs, the internal circuitry and programming
of the BCM allow it to control and integrate many
electronic functions and features of the vehicle
through both hard wired outputs and the transmis-
sion of electronic message outputs to other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the PCI data bus.
OPERATION
The Body Control Module (BCM) supplies vehicle
occupants with visual and audible information and
controls various vehicle functions. To provide and
receive information, the BCM is interfaced to the
vehicle's serial bus communications network, referred
to as the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) bus.
This network consists of the;
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Transmission Control Module (TCM)
²Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC)
²Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
²Compass/Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
²Controller Antilock Brake (CAB)
²HVAC Control Module
²Sliding Door Control Modules (driver and pas-
senger side doors)
²Power Liftgate Module (PLG)
²Audio system equipped with RAZ, RBU, RBK,
and RBB radios.
²Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).
²Side Impact Airbag Control Module (SIACM)²Memory Seat Module (MSM)
²Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
The BCM is operational when battery power is
supplied to the module.
The BCM provides the following features:
²Power Door Locks
²Automatic Door Locks
²Battery Protection - The BCM will automatically
turn off all exterior lamps after 3 minutes, and all
interior lamps after 15 minutes after the ignition is
turned off, if they are not turned off by the driver.
²Chime Control
²Compass/Mini-Trip support.
²Interior Lighting (Courtesy/Reading Lamps)
²BCM Diagnostic Reporting
²Electronic Liftgate Release (with Power Door
Locks)
²Exterior Lighting
²Headlamp Time Delay (with/without Automatic
Headlamps)
²Illuminated Entry
²Fade to Off Interior Lamps - This feature dims
the interior lighting (courtesy lamps) gradually if the
BCM does not receive any new inputs that would
cause the interior lamps to remain on.
²Pulse Width Modulated Instrument Panel Dim-
ming
²Door Lock Inhibit - This feature disables the
door lock functions if the key is in the ignition and
either front door is ajar. Pressing the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) lock/unlock button under these condi-
tions result in normal lock/unlock activation.
The BCM has the ability to LEARN additional fea-
tures in the vehicle, provided the appropriate switch
input and PCI data bus messages are received. Refer
to the LEARNED FEATURES table.

trical connector on the vehicle wiring harness. The
power source for the CAB is through the ignition
switch in the RUN or ON position. The CAB is on
the PCI bus.
OPERATION
The primary functions of the controller antilock
brake (CAB) are to:
²Monitor the antilock brake system for proper
operation.
²Detect wheel locking or wheel slipping tenden-
cies by monitoring the speed of all four wheels of the
vehicle.
²Control fluid modulation to the wheel brakes
while the system is in an ABS mode.
²Store diagnostic information.
²Provide communication to the DRBIIItscan tool
while in diagnostic mode.
²Illuminate the amber ABS warning indicator
lamp.
²(With traction control only) Illuminate the TRAC
ON lamp in the message center on the instrument
panel when a traction control event occurs.
²(with traction control only) Illuminate the TRAC
OFF lamp when the amber ABS warning indicator
lamp illuminates.
The CAB constantly monitors the antilock brake
system for proper operation. If the CAB detects a
fault, it will turn on the amber ABS warning indica-
tor lamp and disable the antilock braking system.
The normal base braking system will remain opera-
tional.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with traction con-
trol, the TRAC OFF lamp will illuminate anytime the
amber ABS warning indicator lamp illuminates.The CAB continuously monitors the speed of each
wheel through the signals generated by the wheel
speed sensors to determine if any wheel is beginning
to lock. When a wheel locking tendency is detected,
the CAB commands the CAB command coils to actu-
ate. The coils then open and close the valves in the
HCU that modulate brake fluid pressure in some or
all of the hydraulic circuits. The CAB continues to
control pressure in individual hydraulic circuits until
a locking tendency is no longer present.
The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program that
monitors the antilock brake system for system faults.
When a fault is detected, the amber ABS warning
indicator lamp is turned on and the fault diagnostic
trouble code (DTC) is then stored in a diagnostic pro-
gram memory. A latched fault will disable certain
system functionality for the current ignition cycle. An
unlatched fault will disable certain system function-
ality until the fault condition disappears. These
DTC's will remain in the CAB memory even after the
ignition has been turned off. The DTC's can be read
and cleared from the CAB memory by a technician
using the DRBIIItscan tool. If not cleared with a
DRBIIItscan tool, the fault occurrence and DTC will
be automatically cleared from the CAB memory after
the identical fault has not been seen during the next
3,500 miles. Drive-off may be required for the amber
ABS warning indicator lamp to go out on the next
ignition cycle.

MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the memory seat/mirror
option, utilize a memory module located under the
drivers front seat. This module is basically wired in-
line between the power seat switch and the power
seat track/adjuster motors, or in-line between the
power mirror switch and the power side view mir-
ror(s) motor(s). The Memory Seat/Mirror Module
(MSMM) contains a central processing unit that com-
municates with other modules on the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The MSMM receives hard wired inputs from the
driver power seat switch and the potentiometers on
each of the driver side power seat track motors, or
from the power mirror switch and the potentiometers
on the side view mirror. The MSMM receives mes-
sages over the PCI data bus from the Body Control
Module (BCM) (memory switch status), the Power-
train Control Module (PCM) (vehicle speed status).
The MSMM will prevent the seat memory recall
function from being initiated if the driver side seat
belt is buckled, if the transmission gear selector lever
is not in the Park or Neutral positions, or if the vehi-
cle is moving.
For diagnosis of the MSMM or the PCI data bus, a
DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures Information are recommended. The MSMM
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When memory system operation is requested
(depressing of the memory switch), a resistor multi-
plexed signal is sent from the memory switch to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM will then
send the appropriate signals out to the Memory Seat/
Mirror Module (MSMM), the MSMM then applies the
voltage supply to the power seat track or side-view
mirror if the proper requirements are met. The vehi-
cle speed must equal zero and the transmission must
be in park or neutral in order for the memory system
to function.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
MEMORY SEAT/MIRROR MODULE
Any diagnosis of the Memory Seat/Mirror sys-
tem 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.
