DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - COMPASS MINI-TRIP
COMPUTER
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) and Com-
pass Temperature (CT) data is obtained from the
Body Control Module (BCM) on the J1850 Data Bus
circuit. The CMTC and CT will display dashes (- -)
for any of the screens it did not receive the bus mes-
sages. The label corresponding to the missing infor-
mation will be lit. If no compass mini-trip computer
data is displayed, check the J1850 Data Bus circuit
communications and the BCM. If the brightness level
is improper check the J1850 Data Bus circuit.
The DRB IIItis recommended for checking the

UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
On some RS models a Homelinkttransceiver is
standard factory-installed equipment. The Homelinkt
transceiver is integral to the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) and the Compass Mini-Trip
Computer (CMTC), which is located in the overhead
console. The only visible component of the Homelinkt
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 Homelinkttransmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified by sight or by feel.
Each of the three Homelinkttransmitter push but-
tons controls 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 Homelinktis capable of operating systems
using either rolling code or non-rolling code technol-
ogy.
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 Homelinkt. The EVIC mes-
sages are:
²Cleared Channels- Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the Homelinkthave been
successfully cleared.
²Training- Indicates that the Homelinktis in
its transmitter learning mode.
²Trained- Indicates that the Homelinkthas
successfully acquired a new transmitter code.
²Transmit- Indicates that a trained Homelinkt
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
Homelinktis transmitting.
The Homelinktcannot be repaired, and is avail-
able for service only as a unit with the EVIC or
CMTC modules. If any of these components is faulty
or damaged, the complete EVIC or CMTC module
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The Homelinktoperates 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, programming procedures
and operation of the Homelinkt, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box.

DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - HOMELINKT
If the Homelinktis inoperative, but the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Compass Mini-
Trip Computer is operating normally, see the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for instructions on
training the Homelinkt. Retrain the Homelinktwith
a known good transmitter as instructed in the own-
er's manual and test the Homelinktoperation again.
If the unit is still inoperative, replace the faulty
Homelinktand EVIC/CMTC module as a unit. If
both the Homelinktand the EVIC/CMTC module are
inoperative, refer toOverhead Console Diagnosis
and Testingearlier in this group for further diagno-
sis. For complete circuit diagrams, refer toOver-
head Consolein Wiring Diagrams.
AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Ambient air temperature is monitored by the over-
head console through ambient temperature messages
received from the Front Control Module (FCM) over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
J1850 data bus circuit. The FCM receives a hard
wired input from the ambient temperature sensor.
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable resis-
tor mounted to a bracket that is secured with a screw
to the right side of the headlamp mounting module
grille opening, behind the radiator grille and in front
of the engine compartment.
Refer toFront Control Modulein Electronic
Control Modules. For complete circuit diagrams, refer
to the appropriate wiring information. The ambient
temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable
resistor that operates on a five-volt reference signal
sent to it by the Front Control Module. The resis-
tance in the sensor changes as temperature changes,
changing the temperature sensor signal circuit volt-
age to the Front Control Module. Based upon the
resistance in the sensor, the Front Control Module
senses a specific voltage on the temperature sensor
signal circuit, which it is programmed to correspond
to a specific temperature. The Front Control Module
then sends the proper ambient temperature mes-
sages to the EVIC, CMTC over the PCI J1850 data
bus.
The thermometer function is supported by the
ambient temperature sensor, a wiring circuit, the
Front Control Module, the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus, and a portion of the
Electronics module. If any portion of the ambienttemperature sensor circuit fails, the Front Control
Module will self-diagnose the circuit.
The ambient temperature sensor circuit can also be
diagnosed by referring toDiagnosis and Testing -
Ambient Temperature Sensor, and Diagnosis
and Testing - Ambient Temperature Sensor Cir-
cuit. If the temperature sensor and circuit are con-
firmed to be OK, but the temperature display is
inoperative or incorrect, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing - Overhead Consolein this group. For
complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate
wiring information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire har-
ness connector.
(2) Measure the resistance of the ambient temper-
ature sensor. At ±40É C (±40É F), the sensor resis-
tance is 336 kilohms. At 55É C (140É F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance
should read between these two values. If OK, refer to
Diagnosis and Testing - Ambient Temperature
Sensor Circuitin this group. If not OK, replace the
faulty ambient temperature sensor.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor wire har-
ness connector and the Front Control Module wire
harness connector.
(2) Connect a jumper wire between the two termi-
nals in the body half of the ambient temperature sen-
sor wire harness connector.
(3) Check for continuity between the sensor return
circuit and the ambient temperature sensor signal
circuit cavities of the Front Control Module wire har-
ness connector. There should be continuity. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open sensor return
circuit or ambient temperature sensor signal circuit
to the ambient temperature sensor as required.
(4) Remove the jumper wire from the body half of
the ambient temperature sensor wire harness con-
nector. Check for continuity between the sensor
return circuit cavity of the Front Control Module
wire harness connector and a good ground. There
should be no continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not
OK, repair the shorted sensor return circuit as
required.

POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles are equipped with an automatic
opening and closing power liftgate system (Fig. 1).
This power liftgate system is a complex system con-
sisting of many components. Some of these compo-
nents are the liftgate gear motor assembly, latch
assembly, lift gear and rod, liftgate control module,
chime/thermistor, full open switch, engage actuator,
pinch sensor, liftgate handle switch, overhead console
switch, key fob switches (Fig. 2), pawl switch and
ratchet switch.
The power liftgate system has its own door control
module, located on the vehicles left body D-pillar
behind the trim panel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/DOOR CON-
TROL MODULE - DESCRIPTION) The power
liftgate gear motor assembly is located just above the
control module. The latch assembly is located in the
bottom center of the power liftgate, below the exte-
rior liftgate handle switch. The power liftgate full
open switch, engage actuator, lift gear and rod are
part of the liftgate gear motor assembly. The pawland ratchet switches are part of the latch assembly.
The pinch sensor or sensors are located along the
right and left sides of the power liftgate, just above
the body line. The liftgate handle switch is an power
release switch and is located in the rear light bar
assembly, just above the license plate. The overhead
console switch is an power open and close command
switch located in the vehicles overhead console.
Safety is of the utmost concern with the power lift-
gate system. Software technology has enabled the
power liftgate control module to detect resistance to
liftgate travel, which allows the power liftgate to stop
and reverse direction anytime an obstruction is felt
or any of the command switches are operated (only in
closing direction). Battery voltage is supplied to the
power liftgate system through a 40 amp fuse, located
in the Intelligent Power Module (IPM) assembly (Fig.
3). In the unlikely event that the power liftgate sys-
tem develops a fault the power liftgate can still be
operated manually with a key, just like a standard
manual liftgate.

The power liftgate control module communicates
on the J1850 Programmable Communication Inter-
face (PCI) Bus Circuit. Therefore, the power liftgate
control module can generate and store its own Diag-
nostic Trouble Codes (DTC). The vehicles Body Con-
trol Module (BCM) receives and supplies messages tothe power liftgate control module via the PCI bus cir-
cuit. A diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB IIItis
used to read and troubleshoot these Diagnostic Trou-
ble Codes (DTC). Refer to the Body Diagnostic Man-
ual for a complete list of diagnostic routines.
For additional information refer to Power Liftgate
Operation. For a complete system wiring schematic
refer to Wiring Diagrams. For system operation
instructions refer to the vehicles owner manual.
Refer to the Body section of the service manual
for additional information on liftgate components
such as the prop rods, hinges, door alignment and
striker alignment.
WARNING: BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS (NOTED BELOW) IN POWER LIFT-
GATE SYSTEM OPERATION BEFORE ATTEMPTING
ANY SERVICE OF THE POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM
OR COMPONENTS.
OPERATION
With the push of a power liftgate open/close com-
mand switch (key fob or overhead console mounted) a
signal is sent out on the J1850 PCI Data Bus circuit.
This signal is detected at the body control module
(BCM). The BCM then sends a signal out on the
J1850 PCI Data Bus circuit to the power liftgate
module. The power liftgate module then signals the
power liftgate motor to start an open or close cycle,
depending on what position the liftgate is in open or
closed.
During a liftgate open or close cycle, if the power
liftgate module detects sufficient resistance to liftgate
travel, such as an obstruction in the liftgates path,
the power liftgate control module will immediately
stop the liftgate movement and reverse travel to the
full open or closed position. The ability for the power
liftgate module to detect resistance to liftgate travel
is accomplished by hall effect sensors, drive motor
speed and pinch sensors (tape switches).
The power liftgate control module has the ability to
learn. Anytime the liftgate is opened or closed using
the power liftgate system the module learns from its
cycle. If a replacement power liftgate component is
installed or a liftgate adjustment is made, the mod-
ule will relearn the effort and/or time required to
open or close the door. This learn cycle can be per-
formed with a Diagnostic Scan Tool, such as the DRB
IIItor with a complete cycle of the liftgate, using
any one of the command switches. Refer to Standard
Procedures in this section for detailed instructions.
The power liftgate system is designed with a num-
ber of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are neces-
sary for safety and / or feasibility of the power
liftgate system. Refer to power liftgate system inhib-
itors noted below:Fig. 2 KEY FOB

POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM INHIBITORS
²The Power Liftgate may not operate in extreme
temperatures. These extreme temperatures will be
approximately -12É F (-24.4É C) on the low side and
143É F (61.6É C) for the high side. A chime/thermister
assembly in the rear light bar assembly monitors the
outside temperature.
²The vehicles transmission must be in park or
neutral for the power liftgate to start a cycle.
²If multiple obstacles are detected during the
same power open or close cycle the liftgate goes into
manual operation.
²If severe Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are
stored in the power liftgate control module.
POWER LIFTGATE SYSTEM CAUTIONS AND
WARNINGS
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE
BATTERY CABLE BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY

CONTACT (APPROXIMATELY 1/2 INCH BEFORE
FULLY CLOSED).
WARNING: NEVER ATTEMPT TO ENTER OR EXIT
THE VEHICLE WITH THE LIFTGATE IN MOTION.
YOU COULD DAMAGE THE POWER LIFTGATE SYS-
TEM AND/OR COMPONENTS AND/OR CAUSE PER-
SONAL INJURY.
WARNING: NEVER STICK OBJECTS IN THE POWER
LIFTGATE WHEN CINCHING CLOSED. YOU COULDDAMAGE THE VEHICLE, POWER LIFTGATE SYS-
TEM COMPONENTS AND/OR CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LIFTGATE
SYSTEM
The power opening and closing power liftgate sys-
tem is a complex system containing many compo-
nents and modules. In order to obtain conclusive
testing the Programmable Communications Interface
(J1850) data bus network and all of the electronic
modules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs
from the power liftgate system must be checked.
The power liftgate system was designed to be diag-
nosed with an appropriate diagnostic scan tool, such
as the DRB IIIt. The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the power liftgate system
requires the use of a DRB IIItscan tool and the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual. The
DRB IIItcan be used to observe various switch sta-
tuses throughout the power liftgate system to help
the technician diagnose a defective switch or compo-
nent. The DRB IIItcan also be used to actuate var-
ious components throughout the power liftgate
system to help the technician diagnose a defective
component.
Before any testing of the power liftgate system is
attempted, the battery should be fully charged, all
built-in power liftgate system inhibitors read and
understood (Refer to power liftgate system operation)
and all wire harness and ground connections
inspected around the affected areas on the vehicle.
Following are quick reference diagnostic tables to
help when diagnosing and testing the power liftgate
system.
