IGNITION CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The ignition system is controlled by the Powertrain
Control Module (PCM) on all engines.
3.7L V-6 ENGINE
The 3.7L V-6 engine uses a separate ignition coil
for each cylinder. The one-piece coil bolts directly to
the cylinder head. Rubber boots seal the secondary
terminal ends of the coils to the top of all 6 spark
plugs. A separate electrical connector is used for each
coil.
Because of coil design, spark plug cables (second-
ary cables) are not used. A distributor is not used
with the 3.7L engine.
Two knock sensors (one for each cylinder bank) are
used to help control spark knock.The Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay provides battery
voltage to each ignition coil.
The ignition system consists of:
²6 Spark Plugs
²6 Separate Ignition Coils
²2 Knock Sensors
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Also to be considered part of the ignition system
are certain inputs from the Crankshaft Position,
Camshaft Position, Throttle Position, 2 knock and
MAP Sensors
4.7L V-8 ENGINE
The 4.7L V-8 engine uses a separate ignition coil
for each cylinder. The one-piece coil bolts directly to
the cylinder head. Rubber boots seal the secondary
terminal ends of the coils to the top of all 8 spark
plugs. A separate electrical connector is used for each
coil.

DOME LAMP
DESCRIPTION
The dome lamp is controlled by the instrument
cluster which provides power at all times, regardless
of the ignition switch position. The ground circuit for
the lamp is switched through the integral dome lamp
switch or through the door ajar switches via the
instrument cluster.
The dome lamp lens and bulb are available for ser-
vice replacement. If either of the lamp switch or bulb
holders is faulty or damaged, the dome lamp assem-
bly must be replaced.
For service of the dome lamp bulb, refer to the
appropriate wiring information.
OPERATION
The dome lamp is activated by the door ajar
switches via the instrument cluster. When all of the
doors are closed, the lamp can be activated by
depressing the lens. When any door is open, depress-
ing the lamp lense to activate the lamp switch will
not turn the lamps off.
The instrument cluster monitors the door ajar
switches. When a door is open the instrument cluster
grounds the low side drivers to turn on the lamp.
Upon closing all doors, the instrument cluster ini-
tiates a 30 second timer. If any of the doors are
opened during the ªtime outº cycle, the instrument
cluster will reset the timer until all doors are closed.
The instrument cluster will faid to off when the doors
are closed and the ignition is turned ON, the time
out expires or the power locks are activated.
REMOVAL

OVERHEAD CONSOLE
DESCRIPTION
Two different overhead consoles are available on
DR models. The Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) (Fig. 1) or Compass Mini-Trip Computer
(CMTC). All consoles are equipped with two reading/
courtesy lamps. The overhead console is mounted
with screws and two snap clips to a molded plastic
retainer bracket located above the headliner.
COMPASS DISPLAY
All the available overhead consoles on this model
include Compass information. While in the compass/
temperature mode, the compass will display the
direction in which the vehicle is pointed using the
eight major compass headings (Examples: north is N,
northeast is NE). The self-calibrating compass unit
requires no adjusting in normal use. The only cali-
bration that may prove necessary is to drive the vehi-
cle at 5 to 8 kilometers-per-hour (3 to 5 miles-per-
hour), on level ground in a square shaped pattern.
This will reorient the compass unit to its vehicle.

POWER LOCKS
DESCRIPTION
POWER LOCKS
The power lock system allows all of the doors to be
locked or unlocked electrically by operating a switch
on either front door trim panel. The power lock sys-
tem receives non-switched battery current through a
fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM), so that
the power locks remain operational, regardless of the
ignition switch position.The instrument cluster locks the doors automati-
cally when the vehicle is driven beyond the speed of
25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors are closed and the
accelerator pedal is depressed. The rolling door lock
feature can be disabled if desired.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the available Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) system radio frequency transmit-
ters, if equipped.

POWER MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT MIRROR
The automatic day/night mirror system is able to
automatically change the reflectance of the inside
rear view mirror in order to reduce the glare of head-
lamps approaching the vehicle from the rear. The
automatic day/night rear view mirror receives bat-
tery current through a fuse in the Integrated Power
Module (IPM) only when the ignition switch is in the
On position.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The power operated outside rear view mirrors
allow the driver to adjust both outside mirrors elec-
trically from the driver side front seat position by
operating a switch on the driver side front door trim
panel. The power mirrors receive a non-switched bat-
tery feed through a fuse in the Integrated Power
Module (IPM) so that the system will remain opera-
tional, regardless of the ignition switch position.
OPERATION
AUTOMATIC DAY/NIGHT MIRROR
A switch located on the bottom of the automatic
day/night mirror housing allows the vehicle operator
to select whether the automatic dimming feature is
operational. When the automatic day/night mirror is
turned on, the mirror switch is lighted by an integral
Light-Emitting Diode (LED). The mirror will auto-
matically disable its self-dimming feature whenever
the vehicle is being driven in reverse.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The heated mirrors include an electric heating grid
behind the mirror glass in each outside mirror, which
can clear the mirror glass of ice, snow, or fog. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED MIRRORS -
DESCRIPTION) for more information.

POWER SEATS
DESCRIPTION
The power seat system option allows the driver or
passenger to electrically adjust the seat position for
optimum control and comfort using the power seat
switches located on the outboard seat cushion side
shield. The power seat system allows the seating
position to be adjusted forward, rearward, front up,
front down, rear up, or rear down. The power seat
system receives battery current through a fuse in the
Integrated Power Module, regardless of the ignition
switch position. The power seat system includes the
following components:
²Driver Power Seat Switch
²Passenger Power Seat Switch
²Driver Power Seat Track
²Passenger Power Seat Track
²Power Lumbar Adjuster(s)
Some models equipped with the power seat option
also feature a power operated lumbar support in the
seat back. The power lumbar support allows the user
to inflate or deflate a bladder located in the lower
seat back to achieve optimum comfort and support in
the lower lumbar region of the spinal column. The
power lumbar support shares the battery feed circuit
of the power seat system.
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the power seat system. Refer to
Heated Seat Systemfor information on the individ-ually controlled heated front seats. Refer to the own-
er's manual in the vehicle glove box for more
information on the features, use and operation of the
power seat system.
OPERATION
The power seat system allows the driver and/or
front passenger seating positions to be adjusted elec-
trically and independently using the separate power
seat switches found on the outboard seat cushion
side shield of each front seat. See the owner's manual
in the vehicle glove box for more information on the
features, use and operation of the power seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER SEAT
SYSTEM
Before any testing of the power seat system is
attempted, the battery should be fully-charged and
all wire harness connections and pins checked to
ensure proper continuity and grounds. For circuit
descriptions and diagrams, refer to Wiring Diagrams.
With the dome lamp on, apply the power seat
switch in the direction of the failure. If the dome
lamp dims, the seat may be jamming. Check under
and behind the seat for binding or obstructions. If
the dome lamp does not dim, proceed with testing of
the individual components and circuits.

POWER WINDOWS
DESCRIPTION
The power window system allows each of the door
windows to be raised and lowered electrically by
actuating a switch on each door panel. A master
switch on the drivers door allows the driver to raise
or lower each of the passenger door windows and to
lock out the individual switches on the passenger
doors from operation. The power window system
receives battery feed through a fuse in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) and a circuit breaker located in
the instrument panel wiring harness near the park
brake pedal, only when the ignition switch is in the
RUN or ACCESSORY position.
OPERATION
WINDOW SWITCH
The power window switches control the battery
and ground feeds to the power window motors. The
passenger door power window switches receive their
battery and ground feeds through the circuitry of the
drivers window switch. When the power window lock-
out switch is in the Lock position, the battery feed
for the passenger door window switches is inter-
rupted.
WINDOW MOTOR
Window motors use permanent type magnets. The
B+ and ground applied at the motor terminal pins
will cause the motor to rotate in one direction.
Reversing current through the motor terminals will
cause the motor to rotate in the opposite direction.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER
