CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
A chime warning system is standard factory-in-
stalled equipment on this model. The chime warning
system uses a single chime tone generator that is
integral to the Central Timer Module (CTM) to pro-
vide an audible indication of various vehicle condi-
tions that may require the attention of the vehicle
operator. The chime warning system includes the fol-
lowing major components, which are described in fur-
ther detail elsewhere in this service manual:
²Central Timer Module- The Central Timer
Module (CTM) is located under the driver side end of
the instrument panel, inboard of the instrument
panel steering column opening. The CTM contains an
integral chime tone generator to provide all of the
proper chime warning system features based upon
the monitored inputs.
²Door Ajar Switch- A door ajar switch is inte-
gral to the driver side front door latch. This switch
provides an input to the chime warning system indi-
cating whether the driver side front door is open or
closed.
²Headlamp Switch- The headlamp switch is
located on the instrument panel outboard of the
steering column. The headlamp switch provides an
input to the chime warning system indicating when
the exterior lamps are turned On or Off.
²Ignition Switch- A key-in ignition switch is
integral to the ignition switch. The key-in ignition
switch provides an input to the chime warning sys-
tem indicating whether a key is present in the igni-
tion lock cylinder.
²Seat Belt Switch- A seat belt switch is inte-
gral to the driver side front seat belt buckle unit. The
seat belt switch provides an input to the chime warn-
ing system indicating whether the driver side front
seat belt is fastened.
Hard wired circuitry connects many of the chime
warning system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired
circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained bymany different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system
and to the chime warning system components
through the use of a combination of soldered splices,
splice block connectors, and many different types of
wire harness terminal connectors and insulators.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and location views for the various wire har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.
The CTM chime warning system circuitry and the
integral chime tone generator cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If the CTM or the chime tone generator are
damaged or faulty, the CTM unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The chime warning system is designed to provide an
audible output as an indication of various conditions
that may require the attention or awareness of the
vehicle operator. The chime warning system compo-
nents operate on battery current received through a
fused B(+) fuse in the Junction Block (JB) on a non-
switched fused B(+) circuit so that the system may
operate regardless of the ignition switch position.
The chime warning system provides an audible
indication to the vehicle operator under the following
conditions:
²Fasten Seat Belt Warning- The Central
Timer Module (CTM) chime tone generator will gen-
erate repetitive chime tones at a slow rate to
announce that a hard wired input from the seat belt
switch to the Electro-Mechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) indicates that the driver side front seat belt
is not fastened with the ignition switch in the On
position. Unless the driver side front seat belt is fas-
tened, the chimes will continue to sound for a dura-
tion of about seven seconds each time the ignition
switch is turned to the On position or until the driver
side front seat belt is fastened, whichever occurs
first. This chime tone is based upon a hard wired
chime request input to the CTM from the EMIC, but
is not related to the operation of the EMIC ªSeatbeltº
indicator.

²Head/Park Lights-On Warning- The CTM
chime tone generator will generate repetitive chime
tones at a fast rate to announce that hard wired
inputs from the driver door ajar switch, headlamp
switch, and ignition switch indicate that the exterior
lamps are turned On with the driver side front door
opened and the ignition switch in the Off position.
The chimes will continue to sound until the exterior
lamps are turned Off, the driver side front door is
closed, or the ignition switch is turned to the On
position, whichever occurs first.
²Key-In-Ignition Warning- The CTM chime
tone generator will generate repetitive chime tones at
a fast rate to announce that hard wired inputs from
the driver door ajar switch, headlamp switch, and
ignition switch indicate that the key is in the ignition
lock cylinder with the driver side front door opened
and the ignition switch in the Off position. The
chimes will continue to sound until the key is
removed from the ignition lock cylinder, the driver
side front door is closed, or the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, whichever occurs first.
²Warning Chime Support- The CTM chime
tone generator will generate repetitive chime tones at
a slow rate to announce that a hard wired chime
request input has been received from the EMIC.
These chime tones provide an audible alert to the
vehicle operator that supplements certain visual indi-
cations displayed by the EMIC. Supplemented indica-
tions include the following:
²The ªAirbagº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
four seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªCheck Gagesº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªLow Fuelº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªLow Washº indicator is illuminated. The
chimes will continue to sound for a duration of about
two seconds each time the indicator is illuminated or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first.
²The ªTrans Tempº indicator is illuminated (auto-
matic transmission only). The chimes will continue to
sound for a duration of about two seconds each time
the indicator is illuminated or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.²The vehicle is over a programmed speed value
(Middle East Gulf Coast Country (GCC) only). The
CTM chime tone generator will generate repetitive
chime tones at a slow rate to announce that the vehi-
cle speed exceeds a programmed value. The chimes
will continue to sound until the vehicle speed is
below the programmed value.
²The ªWater-In-Fuelº indicator is illuminated
(diesel engine only). The chimes will continue to
sound for a duration of about two seconds each time
the indicator is illuminated or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
The CTM provides chime service for all available
features in the chime warning system. The CTM
relies upon hard wired inputs from the driver door
ajar switch, the EMIC, the headlamp switch, and the
key-in ignition switch (ignition switch) to provide
chime service for all of the chime warning system
features. Upon receiving the proper inputs, the CTM
activates the integral chime tone generator to pro-
vide the audible chime tone to the vehicle operator.
The chime tone generator in the CTM is capable of
producing repeated chime tones at two different
rates, slow or fast. The slow chime rate is about fifty
chime tones per minute, while the fast chime rate is
about 180 chime tones per minute. The internal pro-
gramming of the CTM and the EMIC determines the
priority of each chime tone request input that is
received, as well as the rate and duration of each
chime tone that is to be generated.
The hard wired chime warning system inputs to
the CTM and the EMIC, as well as other hard wired
circuits for this system may be diagnosed and tested
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features provided by the
chime warning system.

CENTRAL TIMER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
Three versions of the Central Timer Module (CTM)
are available on this vehicle, a base version (Fig. 1),
a high-line version (Fig. 2), and a premium version.
Whichever version of the CTM the vehicle is
equipped with, it is concealed under the driver side
end of the instrument panel inboard of the instru-
ment panel steering column opening, where it is
secured to a stamped steel bracket that is integral to
the instrument panel armature. The CTM is enclosed
in a molded plastic housing with one (base) or two
(high-line/premium) integral external connector
receptacles that connect it to the vehicle electrical
system through one (base) or two (high-line/pre-
mium) take outs with connectors from the instru-
ment panel wire harness.
The base version of the CTM is used on base mod-
els of this vehicle. It is also sometimes referred to as
the Integrated Electronic Module (IEM). The base
version of the CTM combines the functions of achime module and an intermittent wipe module in a
single unit. The high-line version of the CTM is used
on high-line vehicles. The high-line CTM provides all
of the functions of the base version of the CTM, but
also is used to control and integrate many additional
electronic functions and features included on high-
line models. The premium version of the CTM is the
same as the high-line version, but is used only on
models equipped with the heated seat option.
The high-line and premium versions of the CTM
utilize integrated circuitry and information carried
on the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus
network along with many hard wired inputs to mon-
itor many sensor and switch inputs throughout the
vehicle. In response to those inputs, the internal cir-
cuitry and programming of the CTM allow it to con-
trol and integrate many electronic functions and
features of the vehicle through both hard wired out-
puts and the transmission of electronic message out-
puts to other electronic modules in the vehicle over
the CCD data bus.

CTM through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
All versions of the CTM for this model are serviced
only as a complete unit. Many of the electronic fea-
tures in the vehicle controlled or supported by the
high-line or premium versions of the CTM are pro-
grammable using the DRBIIItscan tool.However, if
any of the CTM hardware components are damaged
or faulty, the entire CTM unit must be replaced. The
base version of the CTM and the hard wired inputs
or outputs of all CTM versions can be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and methods;
however, for diagnosis of the high-line or premium
versions of the CTM or the CCD data bus, the use of
a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the appro-
priate diagnostic information.
OPERATION
The Central Timer Module (CTM) is designed to
control and integrate many of the electronic features
and functions of the vehicle. The base version of the
CTM monitors only hard wired inputs and responds
with the proper hard wired outputs. The microproces-
sor-based high-line/premium version of the CTM
monitors many hard wired switch and sensor inputs
as well as those resources it shares with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle through its communica-
tion over the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data
bus network. The internal programming and all of
these inputs allow the high-line/premium CTM
microprocessor to determine the tasks it needs to
perform and their priorities, as well as both the stan-
dard and optional features that it should provide.
The high-line/premium CTM programming then per-
forms those tasks and provides those features
through both CCD data bus communication with
other electronic modules and through hard wired out-
puts to a number of circuits, relays, and actuators.
These outputs allow the high-line/premium CTM the
ability to control numerous accessory systems in the
vehicle.
All versions of the CTM operate on battery current
received through fuses in the Junction Block (JB) on
a non-switched fused B(+) circuit, a fused ignition
switch output (st-run) circuit (base version only), and
a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit (high-
line/premium version only). This arrangement allows
the CTM to provide some features regardless of the
ignition switch position, while other features willoperate only with the ignition switch in the Acces-
sory, On, and/or Start positions. All versions of the
CTM are grounded through their connector and take
out of the instrument panel wire harness. The high-
line/premium CTM has another ground received
through a second connector and take out of the
instrument panel wire harness. The first ground cir-
cuit receives ground through a take out with an eye-
let terminal connector of the instrument panel wire
harness that is secured by a nut to a ground stud
located on the left instrument panel end bracket,
while the second ground circuit (high-line/premium
version only) receives ground through a take out with
an eyelet terminal connector of the instrument panel
wire harness that is secured by a nut to a ground
stud located on the back of the instrument panel
armature above the inboard side of the instrument
panel steering column opening.
The high-line/premium CTM monitors its own
internal circuitry as well as many of its input and
output circuits, and will store a Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) in electronic memory for any failure it
detects. These DTCs can be retrieved and diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CENTRAL TIMER
MODULE
The hard wired inputs to and outputs from the
Central Timer Module (CTM) may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and meth-
ods. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and location views for the various wire har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.
However, conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the high-line/pre-
mium CTM. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the high-line/premium CTM, the Chrysler CollisionDetection (CCD) data bus network and all of the elec-
tronic modules that provide inputs to or receive out-
puts from the CTM must also be checked. The most
reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the high-line/premium CTM, the CCD data bus net-
work, and the electronic modules that provide inputs
to or receive outputs from the high-line/premium
CTM requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the
appropriate diagnostic information. The DRBIIIt
scan tool can provide confirmation that the CCD data
bus network is functional, that all of the electronic
modules are sending and receiving the proper mes-
sages over the CCD data bus, and that the CTM is
receiving the proper hard wired inputs and respond-
ing with the proper hard wired outputs needed to
perform its many functions.
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING

DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
NOTE: The following tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of the high-line or premium
versions of the Central Timer Module (CTM). The
most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diag-
nose the high-line or premium CTM requires the
use of a DRBIIITscan tool and the appropriate diag-
nostic information.
(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse (Fuse 13 - 10
ampere) in the Junction Block (JB). If OK, go to Step
2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component
as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
(Fuse 13 - 10 ampere) in the JB. If OK, go to Step 3.
If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit between
the JB and the Power Distribution Center (PDC) as
required.
(3) For a base version CTM, check the fused igni-
tion switch output (st-run) fuse (Fuse 11 - 10 ampere)
in the JB. For a high-line/premium version CTM,
check the fused ignition switch output (run-acc) fuse
(Fuse6-25ampere) in the JB. If OK, go to Step 4. If
not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as
required and replace the faulty fuse.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CCD DATA BUS
CCD BUS FAILURE
The CCD data bus can be monitored using the
DRBIIItscan tool. However, it is possible for the
data bus to pass all tests since the voltage parame-
ters will be in ªrangeª and false signals are being
sent. There are essentially 12 ªhard failuresª that
can occur with the CCD data bus:
²Bus Shorted to Battery
²Bus Shorted to 5 Volts
²Bus Shorted to Ground
²Bus (+) Shorted to Bus (±)
²Bus (±) and Bus (+) Open
²Bus (+) Open
²Bus (±) Open
²No Bus Bias
²Bus Bias Level Too High
²Bus Bias Level Too Low
²No Bus Termination
²Not Receiving Bus Messages Correctly
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information for
details on how to diagnose these faults using a
DRBIIItscan tool.
BUS FAILURE VISUAL SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
The following visible symptoms or customer com-
plaints, alone or in combination, may indicate a CCD
data bus failure:
²Airbag Indicator and Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) Illuminated
²Instrument Cluster Gauges (All) Inoperative
²No Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) Oper-
ation (if equipped)
CONTROLLER ANTILOCK
BRAKE
DESCRIPTION
The Controller Antilock Brakes (CAB) is a micro-
processor which handles testing, monitoring and con-
trolling the ABS brake system operation (Fig. 10).
The CAB functions are:
²Perform self-test diagnostics.
²Monitor the RWAL brake system for proper oper-
ation.
²Control the RWAL valve solenoids.
NOTE: If the CAB needs to be replaced, the rear
axle type and tire revolutions per mile must be pro-
gramed into the new CAB. For axle type refer to
Group 3 Differential and Driveline. For tire revolu-
tions per mile,(Refer to 22 - TIRES/WHEELS/TIRES -
SPECIFICATIONS) . To program the CAB refer to the
Chassis Diagnostic Manual.
OPERATION
SYSTEM SELF-TEST
When the ignition switch is turned-on the micro-
processor RAM and ROM are tested. If an error
occurs during the test, a DTC will be set into the
RAM memory. However it is possible the DTC will
not be stored in memory if the error has occurred in
the RAM module were the DTC's are stored. Also it
is possible a DTC may not be stored if the error has
occurred in the ROM which signals the RAM to store
the DTC.
CAB INPUTS
The CAB continuously monitors the speed of the
differential ring gear by monitoring signals generated
by the rear wheel speed sensor. The CAB determines
a wheel locking tendency when it recognizes the ring
gear is decelerating too rapidly. The CAB monitors
the following inputs to determine when a wheel lock-
ing tendency may exists:
²Rear Wheel Speed Sensor
²Brake Lamp Switch
²Brake Warning Lamp Switch
²Reset Switch
²4WD Switch (If equipped)
CAB OUTPUTS
The CAB controls the following outputs for antilock
braking and brake warning information:
²RWAL Valve
²ABS Warning Lamp
²Brake Warning Lamp

DATA LINK CONNECTOR
DESCRIPTION - DATA LINK CONNECTOR
The data link connector (DLC) is located at the
lower edge of the instrument panel near the steering
column.
OPERATION - DATA LINK CONNECTOR
The 16±way data link connector (diagnostic scan
tool connector) links the Diagnostic Readout Box
(DRB) scan tool or the Mopar Diagnostic System
(MDS) with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

NOTE: ECM Outputs:
After inputs are received by the ECM, certain sen-
sors, switches and components are controlled or reg-
ulated by the ECM. These are consideredECM
Outputs.These outputs are for:
²CCD bus (+) circuits
²CCD bus (-) circuits
²CKP and APPS outputs to the PCM
²Data link connection for DRB scan tool
²Five volt sensor supply
²Fuel injection pump
²Fuel injection pump relay
²(FPCM) Fuel Pump Control Module
²Fuel transfer (lift) pump
²Intake manifold air heater relays #1 and #2 con-
trol circuits
²Malfunction indicator lamp (Check engine lamp)
²Oil pressure gauge/warning lamp
²PCM
²Wait-to-start warning lamp
²Water-In-Fuel (WIF) warning lamp
REMOVAL
The ECM is bolted to the engine block behind the
fuel filter (Fig. 16).(1) Record any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's)
found in the PCM or ECM.
To avoid possible voltage spike damage to either
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or ECM, igni-
tion key must be off, and negative battery cables
must be disconnected before unplugging ECM con-
nectors.
(2) Disconnect both negative battery cables at both
batteries.
(3) Remove 50±way electrical connector bolt at
ECM (Fig. 16). Note: Connector bolt is female 4mm
hex head. To remove bolt, use a ball-hex bit or ball-
hex screwdriver such as Snap-Ont4mm SDABM4
(5/32º may also be used). As bolt is being removed,
very carefully remove connector from ECM.
(4) Remove three ECM mounting bolts and remove
ECM from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Do not apply paint to back of ECM. Poor ground
will result.
(1) Clean ECM mounting points at engine block.
(2) Position ECM to engine block and install 3
mounting bolts. Tighten bolts to 24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.).
(3) Check pin connectors in ECM and 50±way con-
nector for corrosion or damage. Repair as necessary.
(4) Clean pins in 50±way electrical connector with
a quick-dry electrical contact cleaner.
(5) Very carefully install 50±way connector to
ECM. Tighten connector hex bolt.
(6) Install battery cables.
(7)Turn key to ON position. Without starting
engine, slowly press throttle pedal to floor and
then slowly release. This step must be done
(one time) to ensure accelerator pedal position
sensor calibration has been learned by ECM. If
not done, possible DTC's may be set.
(8) Use DRB scan tool to erase any stored compan-
ion DTC's from PCM.
