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.

DOOR AJAR SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The door ajar switches are integral to the door
latches on each door. The switches close a path to
ground for the Instrument Cluster when a door is
opened.
The door ajar switches cannot be repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, the door latch unit must be
replaced. Refer to the Body section under Doors for
the removal and installation procedure.
OPERATION
The door ajar switches close a path to ground for
the Instrument Cluster when a door is opened. The
passenger front door is connected in a parallel-series
circuit between ground and the Instrument Cluster,
while the driver side front door ajar switch is con-
nected in series between ground and the Instrument
Cluster to provide a unique input. The Instrument
Cluster reads the switch status, then sends the
proper switch status messages to other electronic
modules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The door ajar
switches can be diagnosed using conventional diag-
nostic tools and methods. Refer to the Body section
under Doors for the Removal and Installation proce-
dures.

READING LAMP
DESCRIPTION
The overhead console in this vehicle is equipped
with two individual reading and courtesy lamps. The
lamp lenses are the only visible components of these
lamps. Each lamp has its own switch, bulb, reflector
and lens within the overhead console.
The overhead console reading and courtesy lamps
are controlled by the instrument cluster which pro-
vides power at all times, regardless of the ignition
switch position. The ground circuit for the lamps is
switched through the integral reading and courtesy
lamp switches or through the door ajar switches.
Each lamp is designed and aimed to provide illumi-
nation that will be directed only to that side of the
vehicle on which the lamp is located.
The reading and courtesy lamp lenses and bulbs
are available for service replacement. The reading
and courtesy lamp switches, bulb holders and wiring
are only available as part of the overhead console
wire harness. If either of the lamp switches or bulb
holders is faulty or damaged, the entire overhead
console wire harness assembly must be replaced.
For service of the reading and courtesy lamp bulbs,
refer to the appropriate wiring information.
OPERATION
All reading and courtesy lamps located in the over-
head console are activated by the door ajar switches
via the instrument cluster. When all of the doors are
closed, these lamps can be individually activated by
depressing the corresponding lens. When any door is
open, depressing the lamp lenses to activate the lamp
switches 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 lamps.
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.

UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
Some DR models are equipped with a universal
transmitter transceiver. The universal transmitter is
integral to the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) and the Compass Mini-Trip Computer
(CMTC), which is located in the overhead console.
The only visible component of the universal transmit-
ter are the three transmitter push buttons centered
between the modules push buttons located just rear-
ward of the display screen in the overhead console.
The three universal transmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified.
Each of the three universal transmitter push but-
tons control an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained to
transmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The universal transmitter is capable of operat-
ing systems using either rolling code or non-rolling
code technology.
The electronics module displays messages and a
small house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots
corresponding to the three transmitter buttons to
indicate the status of the universal transmitter. The
EVIC messages are:
²Clearing Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the universal transmitter
have been successfully cleared.
²Channel ªXº Training- Indicates that the uni-
versal transmitter is in its transmitter learning
mode.
²Channel ªXº Trained- Indicates that the uni-
versal transmitter has successfully acquired a new
transmitter code.
²Channel ªXº Transmitting- Indicates that a
trained universal transmitter button has been
depressed and that the universal transmitter is
transmitting.
The universal transmitter cannot be repaired, and
is available for service only as a unit with the EVIC
or CMTC modules. If any part of the universal trans-
mitter is faulty or damaged, the complete EVIC or
CMTC module must be replaced.
OPERATION
The universal transmitter operates on a non-
switched source of battery current so the unit will
remain functional, regardless of the ignition switch
position. For more information on the features, pro-
gramming procedures and operation of the universal
transmitter, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - UNIVERSAL
TRANSMITTER
If the Universal Transmitter is inoperative, but the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) is oper-
ating normally, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box for instructions on training the Transmit-
ter. Retrain the Transmitter with a known good
transmitter as instructed in the owner's manual and
test the Transmitter operation again. If the unit is
still inoperative, test the universal transmitter with
Radio Frequency Detector special tool. If both the
Transmitter and the EVIC module are inoperative,
refer toElectronic Vehicle Information Center
Diagnosis and Testingin this group for further
diagnosis. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to
Wiring Diagrams. (Fig. 8) as described below:

DRIVER DOOR MODULE
DESCRIPTION
A Driver Door Module (DDM) is used on all models
equipped with power locks, power windows, and
power mirrors. The DDM houses the following
switches:
²Power Lock Switch- The DDM includes a
two-way, momentary, resistor multiplexed switch to
control the power lock system.
²Power Mirror Selector Switch- A three-posi-
tion rocker switch in the DDM selects the right or
left power mirror for adjustment, or turns the power
mirror system Off.
²Power Mirror Adjustment Switches- Four
momentary, arrowhead shaped, directional switches
allow the driver to adjust the selected power mirror
in the Up, Down, Right, or Left directions.
²Power Window Lockout Switch- A two-way,
latching, push-button switch in the DDM allows the
vehicle operator to lock out the power window
switches on each passenger door so that the passen-
ger door power windows may be operated only from
the master switches in the DDM.
²Power Window Switches- The DDM houses a
two-way, momentary power window switch for the
driver side front door. This switch also has a second
detent in the Down direction and internal circuitry to
provide an Auto-Down feature for the driver side
front door power window. In addition to the power
window switch for its own door, the DDM houses
individual master switches for each passenger door
power window.
The DDM also incorporates several green Light-
Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that illuminate the power
lock and power window switch paddles, and the
power mirror switch directional buttons to improve
switch visibility in dark ambient lighting conditions.
The DDM cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, the entire DDM unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The Driver Door Module (DDM) combines a power
lock switch, a driver power window switch with an
Auto-down feature, master switches for each passen-
ger door power window, a power window lockout
switch, a power mirror selector switch, and four
power mirror adjustment switches in a single unit.
The switches in the DDM can be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and methods.
Power Lock Switch
The DDM power lock switch circuitry is connected
in series between ground and the driver door switch
mux input of the instrument cluster. Each power lockswitch position (Lock, Unlock, and Neutral) provides
a different resistance value to the instrument cluster
input, which allows the instrument cluster to sense
the switch position. Based upon the power lock
switch input, the instrument cluster controls the bat-
tery and ground feed outputs to the individual power
lock motors to lock or unlock the door latches. The
Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the DDM power lock
switch is connected to battery current through the
power window circuit breaker in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) on a fused ignition switch out-
put (run-acc) circuit so that the switch will be illumi-
nated whenever the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessory positions.
Power Window Switches
The DDM power window switch circuitry is con-
nected to battery current through a circuit breaker in
the Integrated Power Module (IPM) on a fused igni-
tion switch output (run-acc) circuit so that the power
windows will operate whenever the ignition switch is
in the On or Accessory positions. Each two-way,
momentary master passenger power window switch
in the DDM provides battery current and ground to
the individual power window switches on each pas-
senger door so that the power window switch controls
the battery current and ground feeds to its respective
power window motor. The DDM switch for the driver
side front door power window is labeled ªAutoº and
includes an auto-down feature. When this switch is
depressed to a second momentary detent position and
released, the driver door power window is automati-
cally operated through an internal circuit and relay
to its fully lowered position. The Auto-down event is
cancelled if the switch paddle is depressed a second
time in either the Up or Down direction. When the
two position window lockout switch in the DDM is
depressed and latched in the lockout position, the
battery current feed to each of the individual passen-
ger power window switches is interrupted so that the
passenger door power windows can only be operated
from the master switches in the DDM. The window
lockout switch also controls the battery current feed
for the LED in each passenger power window switch
so that the switch will not be illuminated when it is
locked out.
Power Mirror Switches
The DDM power mirror switch circuitry is con-
nected to battery current through a fuse in the IPM
on a fused B(+) circuit so that the power mirrors
remain operational regardless of the ignition switch
position. A rocker type selector switch has three posi-
tions, one to select the right mirror, one to select the
left mirror, and a neutral Off position. After the right
or left mirror is selected, one of four directional but-

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
When an RKE lock message is sent to the instru-
ment cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
door locks, the interior lighting is turned off, the
horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the park
lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if the
vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock mes-
sage is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument
cluster actuates the driver side front door (or all
doors if this feature is enabled) unlock, the interior
lighting is turned on and, if the vehicle is so
equipped, the VTSS is disarmed.
When an RKE panic message is sent to the instru-
ment cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is
enabled) unlock, the interior lighting is turned on
and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is dis-
armed. The panic message will also cause the exte-
rior lamps (including the headlights) to flash, andthe horn to sound for about three minutes, or until a
second panic message is sent to the instrument clus-
ter. A vehicle speed of about 25.7 kilometers-per-hour
(15 miles-per-hour) will also cancel the panic event.
Refer to the owner's manual for more information
on the features, use and operation of the RKE sys-
tem.
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted,
the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will retain
all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replac-
ing or adding a key fob transmitter (maximum of 4) a
DRB IIItscan tool is required to program the RKE
Module to accept the new Vehicle Access Code if a
customer owned transmitter is not available.
