OXYGEN SENSOR (O2)
The O2 sensor is mounted in the exhaust system where it
monitors oxygen content of exhaust gases. Some vehicles may use 2 O2
sensors. The O2 sensor produces a voltage signal which is proportional
to exhaust gas oxygen concentration (0-3%) compared to outside oxygen
(20-21%). This voltage signal is low (about .1 volt) when a lean
mixture is present and high (1.0 volt) when a rich mixture is present.\
As ECM compensates for a lean or rich condition, this voltage
signal constantly fluctuates between high and low, crossing a
reference voltage supplied by the ECM on the O2 signal line. This is
referred to as cross counts. A problem in the O2 sensor circuit should
set a related trouble code.
COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS (CEC)
The CEC system monitors and controls a variety of
engine/vehicle functions. The CEC system is primarily an emission
control system designed to maintain a 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio under most
operating conditions. When the ideal air/fuel ratio is maintained, the
catalytic converter can control oxides of nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbon
(HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions.
The CEC system consists of the following sub-systems:
Electronic Control Module (ECM), input devices (sensors and switches)\
and output signals.

components, reverse removal procedure.
Removal (Dakota 4WD & Durango 4WD)
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove oil dipstick.
Drain engine oil. Remove exhaust pipe crossover and lower transmission
cover.
2) Remove front drive axle for access to oil pan. For front
drive axle removal, loosen wheel lug nuts. Remove cotter pin, lock nut
and spring washer. Loosen axle shaft nut with vehicle on floor and
brakes applied. Raise and support vehicle.
CAUTION: DO NOT pull on rubber boot during axle shaft removal. Pull on
outer CV joint only.
3) Remove wheels and skid plate. Remove axle shaft nut.
Remove axle shaft-to-differential flange bolts at front drive axle.
Support axle shaft, and separate axle splines from wheel hub by
pulling inward at outer CV joint.
4) Remove remaining axle shaft. Mark front drive shaft and
transfer case yoke for installation reference. Remove front drive
shaft from transfer case. Disconnect vacuum hoses from shift motor and
electrical connections at shift indicator switch.
5) Support front drive axle using a floor jack. Remove front
drive axle and shift motor bolts. Lower floor jack, and remove front
drive axle with drive shaft. Remove transmission lower cover. Remove
bolts, oil pan and gasket.
Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Before installing
oil pan, apply RTV sealant where front cover contacts cylinder block,
oil pan side gaskets meet end seals and end seals contact cylinder
block. See Fig. 14.
2) To facilitate oil pan installation, fabricate 4 alignment
dowels from 1 1/2" x 5/16" bolts. See Fig. 15. Tighten bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
3) To install remaining components, reverse removal
procedure. When installing front drive axle, loosely install all bolts
before tightening to specification. Tighten axle shaft nut to
specification with vehicle on ground. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
Ensure reference marks on transfer case yoke and front drive shaft are
aligned.
Removal (Ram Pickup & Ram Van/Wagon - 3.9L)
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove oil dipstick. On
Ram Van/Wagon, remove engine cover. On all models, remove air cleaner
and engine controller. Raise and support vehicle. Drain engine oil.
2) Remove left engine-to-transmission strut. Loosen exhaust
pipe support bracket. Disconnect exhaust pipe. On Ram Pickup, remove
oil pan and gasket.
3) On Ram Van/Wagon, remove starter, transmission dust
shield, oxygen sensor and air injection tube. On all models, remove
right engine mount nut. Loosen, but DO NOT remove, left engine mount
nut.
4) Support right side of engine using jackstand. Remove
transmission mount through-bolt, and support transmission using
jackstand. Raise engine and transmission enough for oil pan removal.
Remove bolts, oil pan and gasket.
Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Before installing
oil pan, apply RTV sealant where front cover contacts cylinder block,
oil pan side gaskets meet end seals and end seals contact cylinder
block. See Fig. 14.

bracket. Ensure alignment tab on brake switch aligns with opening on
mounting bracket.
CAUTION: When adjusting brake switch, DO NOT pull brake pedal back
toward brake switch with excessive pressure, or brake switch
may be damaged.
3) When brake switch is fully installed in mounting bracket,
rotate brake switch clockwise approximately 30 degrees. To ensure
proper brake switch adjustment, gently pull brake pedal back toward
brake switch as far as possible. DO NOT apply excessive pressure on
brake pedal and brake switch.
Removal (Ram Van & Ram Wagon)
1) Brake switch is located near top of brake pedal. Remove
lower steering column cover. Remove data link connector, hood release
lever and parking brake lever from lower instrument panel cover.
2) Remove lower instrument panel cover for access to brake
switch. Depress and hold brake pedal downward. Rotate brake switch
counterclockwise approximately 1/16 turn to so locking collar on brake
switch aligns with opening on mounting bracket. Pull brake switch
rearward from mounting bracket. Disconnect electrical connector from
brake switch.
NOTE: Before installing brake switch, plunger on brake switch must
be pulled outward to fully extended position and then pushed
inward 4 detent positions to ensure proper brake switch
adjustment.
Installation
1) Pull plunger on brake switch outward to the fully extended
position. Push plunger on brake switch inward 4 detent positions. The
brake switch will click at each detent position when pushing plunger
inward.
2) Install electrical connector on brake switch. Depress
brake pedal as far as possible. Install brake switch in mounting
bracket. Ensure locking collar on brake switch aligns with opening on
mounting bracket.
CAUTION: When adjusting brake switch, DO NOT pull brake pedal back
toward brake switch with excessive pressure, or brake switch
may be damaged.
3) When brake switch is fully installed in mounting bracket,
rotate brake switch clockwise approximately 1/16 turn. To ensure
