PARK LAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The park lamp relay is located in the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC) of the vehicle. The park lamp
relay is a conventional International Standards
Organization (ISO) micro relay (Fig. 17). Relays con-
forming to the ISO specifications have common phys-
ical dimensions, current capacities, terminal
patterns, and terminal functions.
The park lamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The park lamp relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Front
Control Module (FCM) to control a high current out-
put to the park lamps. The movable common feed
contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.The park lamp relay terminals are connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a connector in
the Junction Block (JB). The inputs and outputs of
the headlamp low beam relay include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the park lamps through
the park lamp relay output circuit and provides
ground to the park lamps when the relay is de-ener-
gized, and battery current to the park lamps when-
ever the relay is energized.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Front
Control Module (FCM) through a park lamp relay
control circuit. The FCM controls park lamp opera-
tion by controlling a ground path through this cir-
cuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a fuse in the PDC through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is connected to ground at all
times.
The park lamp relay can be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.

OPERATION
The seat belt tension reducer is controlled by a
ground signal received from the seat belt switch on
the seat belt switch sense circuit and a battery cur-
rent signal received from the ignition switch on the
fused ignition switch output (run-accessory) circuit.
When the seat belt switch is closed (the driver side
front seat belt is fastened) and the ignition switch is
in the On or Accessory positions, the seat belt tension
reducer solenoid is energized. When the solenoid is
energized, it actuates a mechanism within the driver
side front outboard seat belt retractor to reduce the
normal recoil spring tension exerted by the retractor
spool, which is designed to reel in the seat belt web-
bing onto the spool. When the driver side seat belt is
unbuckled or if the ignition switch is turned to any
position except On or Accessory, the tension reducer
solenoid is de-energized and the normal recoil spring
tension of the retractor is restored.
The action of the seat belt tension reducer results
in improved seat belt comfort for the driver. Reducing
the seat belt retractor recoil spring tension is desir-
able on standard cab models of this vehicle and not
on the quad cab model due to the different mounting
position required for the seat belt turning loop on the
B-pillar relative to the driver's seat position on the
standard cab model. The seat belt tension reducer
may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools
and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SEAT BELT

Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire
harness routing and retention, connector pin-out
information and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.

TIVE (GROUND) CABLE, THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES
FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE
BEFORE PERFORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR
SERVICE. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DIS-
ABLE THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM.
FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS
COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOY-
MENT.(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the body wire harness connector for
the seat belt tension reducer from the tension
reducer connector receptacle on the driver side front
outboard seat belt and retractor unit. Using an ohm-
meter, measure the resistance between the seat belt
switch sense circuit terminal pin and the fused igni-
tion switch output (run-accessory) circuit terminal
pin in the tension reducer connector receptacle on
the retractor. Resistance through the tension reducer
solenoid coil should be 53 ohms at 20É C (68É F). If
OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, replace the faulty driver
side front outboard seat belt and retractor unit.
(2) Check for continuity between the seat belt
switch sense circuit cavity of the body wire harness
connector for the seat belt tension reducer and a good
ground. There should be continuity with the driver
side front seat belt buckled, and no continuity with
the driver side front seat belt unbuckled. If OK, go to
Step 3. If not OK, repair the shorted or open seat
belt switch sense circuit between the tension reducer
and the seat belt switch as required.
(3) Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery current at the fused ignition switch output
(run-accessory) circuit of the body wire harness con-
nector for the seat belt tension reducer. There should
be battery current with the ignition switch in the On
or Accessory positions, and no battery current with
the ignition switch in any other position. If not OK,
repair the shorted or open fused ignition switch out-
put (run-accessory) circuit between the tension
reducer and the ignition switch as required.

WIPER HIGH/LOW RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The wiper high/low relay is located in the Inte-
grated Power Module (IPM) in the engine compart-
ment near the battery. The wiper high/low relay is a
conventional International Standards Organization
(ISO) micro relay (Fig. 22). Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions. The relay is contained within a small, rect-
angular, molded plastic housing and is connected to
all of the required inputs and outputs by five integralmale spade-type terminals that extend from the bot-
tom of the relay base.
The wiper high/low relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The wiper high/low relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Front
Control Module (FCM) to control a high current out-
put to the wiper motor. The movable common feed
contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The wiper high/low relay terminals are connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Integrated Power Module (IPM).
The inputs and outputs of the wiper high/low relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the output of the wiper
on/off relay at all times through the wiper on/off
relay output circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Front
Control Module (FCM) through a wiper high/low
relay control circuit. The FCM controls wiper motor
operation by controlling a ground path through this
circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current when the ignition
switch is in the On or Accessory positions from a fuse
in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) through a
fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) is connected to the high speed brush of
the wiper motor through a wiper high/low relay high
speed output circuit, and is connected to the high
speed brush whenever the relay is energized.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is connected to the low speed
brush of the wiper motor through a wiper high/low
relay low speed output circuit, and is connected to
the low speed brush whenever the relay is de-ener-
gized.

CIGAR LIGHTER OUTLET
DESCRIPTION
On models equipped a cigar lighter outlet is
installed to the left of the center stack area in the
lower instrument panel. The cigar lighter outlet is
secured by a snap fit within the bezel.
The cigar lighter outlet, plastic cap and the knob
and heating element unit are available for service
replacement. These components cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, they must be replaced.
OPERATION
The cigar lighter consists of two major components:
a knob and heating element unit, and the cigar
lighter base or outlet shell. The receptacle shell is
connected to ground, and an insulated contact in the
bottom of the shell is connected to battery current.
The cigar lighter receives battery voltage from a fuse
in the junction block when the ignition switch is in
the Accessory or Run positions.
The cigar lighter knob and heating element are
encased within a spring-loaded housing, which also
features a sliding protective heat shield. When the
knob and heating element are inserted in the outlet
shell, the heating element resistor coil is grounded
through its housing to the outlet shell. If the cigar
lighter knob is pushed inward, the heat shield slides
up toward the knob exposing the heating element,
and the heating element extends from the housing
toward the insulated contact in the bottom of the
outlet shell.
Two small spring-clip retainers are located on
either side of the insulated contact inside the bottom
of the outlet shell. These clips engage and hold the
heating element against the insulated contact longenough for the resistor coil to heat up. When the
heating element is engaged with the contact, battery
current can flow through the resistor coil to ground,
causing the resistor coil to heat.
When the resistor coil becomes sufficiently heated,
excess heat radiates from the heating element caus-
ing the spring-clips to expand. Once the spring-clips
expand far enough to release the heating element,
the spring-loaded housing forces the knob and heat-
ing element to pop back outward to their relaxed
position. When the cigar lighter knob and element
are pulled out of the outlet shell, the protective heat
shield slides downward on the housing so that the
heating element is recessed and shielded around its
circumference for safety.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CIGAR LIGHTER
