ENGINE COOLANT TEMP
SENSOR - 5.9L
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is
used to sense engine coolant temperature. The sensor
protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal
Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine coolant
temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the
sensor decreases. As temperature decreases, resis-
tance (voltage) in the sensor increases.
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT sensor.
The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes
through the ECT sensor to the sensor ground (sensor
return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in
Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer air-
fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done
until normal operating temperatures are reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the
following calculations:
²for engine coolant temperature gauge operation
through CCD or PCI (J1850) communications
²Injector pulse-width
²Spark-advance curves
²ASD relay shut-down times
²Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
²Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
²O2 sensor closed loop times
²Purge solenoid on/off times
²EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
²Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
²Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)²Target idle speed
REMOVAL
WARNING: HOT, PRESSURIZED COOLANT CAN
CAUSE INJURY BY SCALDING. COOLING SYSTEM
MUST BE PARTIALLY DRAINED BEFORE REMOV-
ING THE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR.

more information on the features, use and operation
of each of the available audio systems.
CENTRAL TIMER MODULE
The high-line or premium Central Timer Module
(CTM) can also control some features of the audio
system when the vehicle is equipped with the
optional RAZ radio receiver and remote radio
switches. A high-line CTM is used on high-line ver-
sions of this vehicle. A premium CTM is used on
vehicles equipped with the optional heated seats. The
CTM combines the functions of a chime/buzzer mod-
ule, an intermittent wipe module, an illuminated
entry module, a remote keyless entry module, and a
vehicle theft security system module in a single unit.
The high-line or premium CTM also controls and
integrates many of the additional electronic functions
and features included on models with this option.
The RAZ radio receiver with a remote radio switch
option is one of the features that the CTM controls.
The CTM is programmed to send switch status mes-sages over the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD)
data bus to control the volume, seek, and pre-set sta-
tion advance functions of the RAZ radio receiver. The
CTM monitors the status of the remote radio
switches located on the steering wheel through a
hard wired circuit. The CTM then sends the proper
switch status messages to the radio receiver. The
electronic circuitry within the radio receiver responds
to the switch status messages it receives by adjusting
the radio settings as requested.
Refer to Electrical, Body Control/Central Timer
Module for more information on the high-line CTM.
Refer to Remote Radio Switch in Description and
Operation for more information on this component.
In addition, radio receivers connected to the CCD
data bus have several audio system functions that
can be diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to

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.
BR/BECHIME/BUZZER 8B - 1

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.
