AIRBAG, REFER TO GROUP 8M, RESTRAINT SYS-
TEMS FOR STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN SER-
VICE PROCEDURES.
The windshield wipers will only operate with the
ignition switch in the ACCESSORY or IGNITION
RUN position. The wiper circuit is protect against
over loads by a fuse in the fuse block and a circuit
breaker within the wiper motor. This protects the cir-
cuitry of the wiper system and the vehicle.
The wiper motor has permanent magnet fields.
The intermittent wiper system, in addition to low
and high speed, has a delay mode and a pulse wipe
mode. The delay mode has a range of 1 to 15 seconds.
Pulse wipe is accomplished by momentarily moving
the stalk lever into the WASH position while the
wiper switch is in either OFF or DELAY position.
The wiper blades then sweep once or twice and
return to the previous wiper switch mode, OFF or
DELAY.
The intermittent wiper function is integral to the
wiper switch. All electronics and relay are inside the
switch assembly.
The wiper system completes the wipe cycle when
the switch is turned OFF. The blades park in the
lowest portion of the wipe pattern.

DURES.
The following is a list of general wiper motor sys-
tem problems, the tests that are to be performed to
locate the faulty part, and the corrective action to be
taken.
Whatever the problem, disconnect motor wire har-
ness and clean the terminals, then connect motor
wire harness and test.

GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL 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 socket
when 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 and coat the inside of the socket lightly with
Mopar Multi-Purpose Grease or equivalent.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: EYE PROTECTION SHOULD BE USED
WHEN SERVICING GLASS COMPONENTS. PER-
SONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.
CAUTION: Do not touch the glass of halogen bulbs
with fingers or other possibly oily surface, reduced
bulb life will result.
Do not use bulbs with higher candle power than
indicated in the Bulb Application table at the end of
this group. Damage to lamp and/or Daytime Run-
ning Lamp Module can result.
Do not use fuses, circuit breakers or relays hav-
ing greater amperage value than indicated on the
fuse panel or in the Owners Manual.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.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP MODULE
PL vehicles built for use in Canada are equipped
with a Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) system. The
DRL system operates the headlamps at 50% illumi-
nation with the headlamp switch OFF, park brake
released and the ignition ON. The DRL system is
controlled by the Daytime Running Lamp Module.
The DRL module overrides the headlamp switch
when the headlamps are turned OFF. The headlamps
operate normally when the headlamps are turned
ON.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
When a vehicle experiences problems with the
headlamp system, verify the condition of the battery
connections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire
connectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and
headlamp switch. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams for component locations and circuit informa-
tion.

SERVICE PROCEDURES
CLEANUP PROCEDURE
Roll or fold the passenger airbag towards the
instrument panel surface and close the door over the
folded bag. Then tape the door shut.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual pow-
der from the vehicle interior. Work from the outside
in to avoid kneeling or sitting in a contaminated
area. Vacuum the heater and A/C outlets as well (Fig.
4). If the heater or air conditioner was in RECIRC
mode at time of airbag deployment, operate blower
motor on low speed and vacuum powder residue
expelled from the heater and A/C outlets. Multiple
vacuum cleaning may to necessary to decontaminate
the interior of the vehicle.
NOTE: Dispose deployed airbag properly, contact
dealer or government agency for disposal recom-
mendations.
SERVICE OF DEPLOYED AIRBAG MODULE
DRIVER AIRBAG
After a Driver Airbag Module has been deployed
the following components must be replaced becausethey cannot be reused. Other driver airbag system
components are replaced if damaged.
²Driver Airbag Module
²Clockspring assembly
PASSENGER AIRBAG
After a Passenger Airbag Module has been
deployed the following components must be replaced
because they cannot be reused.
²Passenger Airbag Module
²Right trim panel
The lower instrument panel knee blocker, top
cover, and any other components should be replaced
if damaged.
HANDLING AIRBAG MODULE
DEPLOYED MODULE
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
The airbag module(s) 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 car-
rying or handling an undeployed airbag module, the
trim side of the airbag should be pointing away from
the body to minimize possibility of injury if acciden-
