HEATED SEAT ELEMENT
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the optional heated seat
system have two sets of electrically operated heating
element grids located in each front seat, one set for
the seat cushion and the other set for the seat back.
Each of the heated seat element grids consists of a
single length of resistor wire that is routed in a zig-
zag pattern and captured between a covering and the
adhesive foam rubber backing. Short pigtail wires
with connectors (Fig. 5) are soldered to each end of
each resistor wire element grid, which connect all of
the element grids for each seating position to each
other in series with the heated seat module through
the seat wire harness.

the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) when the
engine is running. Check for continuity between the
cavity for relay terminal 85 and the heated seat relay
control circuit cavity of the CTM wire harness con-
nector. There should be continuity at all times. If OK,
use a DRBIIItscan tool and the proper diagnostic
procedures manual to test the operation of the CTM
and CCD data bus. If not OK, repair the open heated
seat relay control circuit as required.

PASSENGER SEAT HEATER
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are both mounted in a
heated seat switch bezel (Fig. 17), which replaces the
standard equipment cubby bin located in the lower
right corner of the instrument cluster bezel next to
the radio receiver. The two switches are snapped into
the mounting holes of the heated seat switch bezel,
and the heated seat switch bezel is secured with
three screws to the instrument panel. The mounts for
the heated seat switch bezel are concealed behind the
instrument cluster bezel. The two heated seat
switches are identical in appearance and construc-
tion, except for the location of a keyway in the single
connector receptacle on the back of each switch. The
instrument panel wire harness connectors for the
heated seat switches are keyed to match the connec-
tor receptacles on the switches so that the two
heated seat switches can only be connected to the
proper heated seat electrical.
The momentary, bidirectional rocker-type heated
seat switch provides a resistor-multiplexed signal to
the heated seat module on the mux circuit. Each
switch has a center neutral position and momentary
Low and High positions so that both the driver and

the front seat passenger can select a preferred level
of seat heating. Each heated seat switch has two
Light-Emitting Diode (LED) indicator lamps, which
indicate the selected mode (Low or High) of the seat
heater. These indicator lamps also provide diagnostic
feedback for the heated seat system. Each switch
also has an incandescent bulb, which provides dim-
mer controlled back lighting of the switch when the
headlamps or park lamps are on.
The two LED indicator lamps and the incandescent
bulb in each heated seat switch cannot be repaired. If
the indicator lamps or back lighting bulb are faulty
or damaged, the individual heated seat switch must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The heated seat switches receive battery current
through a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit
when the ignition switch is in the On position.
Depressing the heated seat switch rocker to its
momentary High or Low position provides a hard-
wired resistor multiplexed voltage request signal to
the heated seat module to power the heated seat ele-
ment of the selected seat and maintain the requested
temperature setting. If the heated seat switch is
depressed to a different position (Low or High) than
the currently selected state, the heated seat module
will change states to support the new selection. If a
heated seat switch is depressed a second time to thesame position as the currently selected state, the
heated seat module interprets the second input as a
request to turn the seat heater off. The heated seat
module will then turn the heated seat elements for
that seat off.
The indicator lamps in the heated seat switches
receive battery current through a fused ignition
switch output (run) circuit when the ignition switch
is in the On position. The ground side of each indi-
cator lamp is controlled by a separate (high or low/
driver or passenger) indicator lamp driver circuit by
the heated seat module. The heated seat module con-
trol of the switch indicator lamps also allows the
module to provide diagnostic feedback to the vehicle
operator to indicate monitored heated seat system
faults by flashing the indicator lamps on and off. One
side of the incandescent back lighting bulb in each
heated seat switch is connected to ground at all
times. The other side of the incandescent bulb is con-
nected to the fused panel lamps dimmer switch sig-
nal circuit. These bulbs are energized when the park
lamps or headlamps are turned on, and their illumi-
nation intensity is controlled by the panel lamps dim-
mer switch.

AUTOMATIC SHUT DOWN
RELAY
DESCRIPTION - PCM OUTPUT
The 5±pin, 12±volt, Automatic Shutdown (ASD)
relay is located in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC). Refer to label on PDC cover for relay location.
OPERATION
OPERATION - PCM OUTPUT
The ASD relay supplies battery voltage (12+ volts)
to the fuel injectors and ignition coil(s). With certain
emissions packages it also supplies 12±volts to the
oxygen sensor heating elements.
The ground circuit for the coil within the ASD
relay is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM). The PCM operates the ASD relay by switch-
ing its ground circuit on and off.
The ASD relay will be shut±down, meaning the
12±volt power supply to the ASD relay will be de-ac-
tivated by the PCM if:
²the ignition key is left in the ON position. This
is if the engine has not been running for approxi-
mately 1.8 seconds.
²there is a crankshaft position sensor signal to
the PCM that is lower than pre-determined values.
OPERATION - ASD SENSE - PCM INPUT
A 12 volt signal at this input indicates to the PCM
that the ASD has been activated. The relay is used to
connect the oxygen sensor heater element, ignition
coil and fuel injectors to 12 volt + power supply.
This input is used only to sense that the ASD relay
is energized. If the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) does not see 12 volts at this input when the
ASD should be activated, it will set a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ASD AND FUEL
PUMP RELAYS
The following description of operation and
tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown
(ASD) and fuel pump relays. The terminals on the
bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different
types of relays may be used, (Fig. 1) or (Fig. 2).

graduation and the check gauges indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a message from
the PCM indicating there is no charge fail condition
(system voltage is 10.9 volts or higher, but lower
than 16.7 volts), or until the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position, whichever occurs first. On models
equipped with the optional diesel engine, the instru-
ment cluster is programmed to support the voltmeter
gauge needle above the low end of normal graduation
and suppress the check gauges indicator operation
until ten seconds after the engine intake manifold air
heater has completed its cycle.
²Voltage High Message- Each time the cluster
receives a message from the PCM indicating a volt-
age high condition (system voltage is 16.7 volts or
higher), the gauge needle is moved to the 18 volt
graduation on the gauge scale and the check gauges
indicator is illuminated. The gauge needle remains
on the 18 volt graduation and the check gauges indi-
cator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a
message from the PCM indicating there is no voltage
high condition (system voltage is 16.6 volts or lower,
but higher than 10.9 volts), or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
²Message Failure- If the cluster fails to receive
a system voltage message, it will hold the gauge nee-
dle at the last indication until a new message is
received, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the gauge needle will be
swept to several calibration points on the gauge scale
in a prescribed sequence in order to confirm the func-
tionality of the gauge and the cluster control cir-
cuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the system voltage
to control the generator output. The PCM then sends
the proper system voltage messages to the instru-
ment cluster. For further diagnosis of the voltage
gauge or the instrument cluster circuitry that con-
trols the gauge, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRU-
MENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If
the instrument cluster turns on the check gauges
indicator due to a charge fail or voltage high condi-
tion, it may indicate that the charging system
requires service. For proper diagnosis of the charging
system, the CCD data bus, or the message inputs to
the instrument cluster that control the voltage
gauge, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.WAIT-TO-START INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A wait-to-start indicator is standard equipment on
all instrument clusters, but is only functional in vehi-
cles equipped with an optional diesel engine. The
wait-to-start indicator is located near the lower edge
of the instrument cluster overlay, to the right of cen-
ter. The wait-to-start indicator consists of a stenciled
cutout of the text ªWAIT TO STARTº in the opaque
layer of the cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of
the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly
visible when it is not illuminated. A red lens located
behind the cutout causes the ªWAIT TO STARTº text
to appear in red through the translucent outer layer
of the overlay when the indicator is illuminated from
behind by a Light Emitting Diode (LED) that is sol-
dered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The wait-to-start indicator is serviced as a
unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The wait-to-start indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator when the diesel engine intake
air heater is energized in its preheat operating mode.
This indicator is controlled by a hard wired input to
the instrument cluster from the Engine Control Mod-
ule (ECM). The wait-to-start indicator Light Emitting
Diode (LED) receives battery current on the instru-
ment cluster electronic circuit board through the
fused ignition switch output (st-run) circuit whenever
the ignition switch is in the On or Start positions;
therefore, the lamp will always be off when the igni-
tion switch is in any position except On or Start. The
indicator LED only illuminates when it is switched to
ground by the input from the ECM. The ECM will
turn on the wait-to-start indicator by pulling the
wait-to-start indicator driver circuit to ground each
time the ignition switch is turned to the On or Start
positions. The indicator then remains illuminated
until the ECM detects that the air within the intake
manifold is the proper temperature to ensure reliable
and efficient engine starting, until the ECM detects
that the engine is running, or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
The ECM continually monitors the intake manifold
air temperature sensor, the Manifold Absolute Pres-
sure (MAP) sensor, and many other vehicle condi-
tions to determine when the wait-to-start indicator
should be illuminated. For proper diagnosis of the
wait-to-start indicator, the ECM, or the inputs the
ECM uses to control the wait-to-start indicator oper-
ation, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

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 junction block only
when the ignition switch is in the On position.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
The heated mirror option includes an electric heat-
ing grid behind the mirror glass in each outside mir-
ror, which can clear the mirror glass of ice, snow, or
fog. The heating grid receives fused battery current
through the heated mirror relay in the heater and air

photocell sensors are used by the mirror circuitry to
monitor external light levels and adjust the reflec-
tance of the mirror.
