INSTALLATION
(1) Install coolant temperature sensor into the
thermostat housing. Tighten to 28 Nzm (21 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(2) Connect the wire connector.
(3) Fill the cooling system. Refer to group 7, Cool-
ing System.
DISTRIBUTOR
All distributors contain an internal oil seal that
prevents oil from entering the distributor housing.
The seal is not serviceable.
The camshaft position sensor is located in the dis-
tributor on all engines (Fig. 9).
Refer to Fig. 9 for an exploded view of the distrib-
utor.
REMOVALÐ2.5L ENGINE
(1) Disconnect the negative battery cable at the
battery.
(2) Disconnect coil secondary cable at coil.
(3) Remove distributor cap from distributor (2
screws). Do not remove cables from cap.
(4) Disconnect the distributor wiring harness from
the main engine harness.
(5) Scribe a mark on the distributor housing in
line with the tip of the rotor. Note the position of the
rotor and distributor housing. This is in relation tothe surrounding engine components as reference
points for installing the distributor.
(6) Remove the distributor holddown bolt and
clamp.
(7) Remove the distributor from engine by lifting
straight up. Remove and discard old distributor-to-
engine block gasket. Note that the rotor will rotate
slightly in a counterclockwise direction while lifting
up the distributor. Note this position after removal.
INSTALLATIONÐ2.5L ENGINE
ENGINE NOT ROTATED AFTER REMOVAL
This procedure assumes that the engine was not ro-
tated with distributor out of engine.
(1) Clean the distributor mounting hole area of the
engine block.
(2) Install a new distributor-to-engine block gas-
ket.
There is a fork on the distributor housing where
the housing seats against the engine block. The slot
in the fork aligns with the distributor holddown bolt
hole in the engine block. The distributor is correctly
installed when the rotor is correctly positioned. This
is with the slot in the fork aligned with the hold-
down bolt hole in the cylinder block. Because of the
fork on the distributor housing, initial ignition tim-
ing is not adjustable (the distributor cannot be rotat-
ed).
(3) Position the distributor shaft in the cylinder
block. If the engine was not rotated while the distrib-
utor was removed, perform the following:
²Align the rotor tip with the scribe mark on the
distributor housing during removal. Turn the rotor
approximately 1/8-turn counterclockwise past the
scribe mark.
CAUTION: Be sure that the distributor shaft fully
engages into the oil pump drive gear shaft. It may
be necessary to slightly rotate (bump) the engine.
This is done while applying downward hand force
on the distributor body. It should fully engage the
distributor shaft with the oil pump drive gear shaft.
²Slide the distributor shaft down into the engine.
It may be necessary to move the rotor and shaft
(slightly) to engage the distributor shaft with the slot
in the oil pump shaft. The same may have to be done
to engage the distributor gear with the camshaft
gear. However, the rotor should align with the scribe
mark when the distributor shaft is down in place.
²Install the distributor holddown clamp and bolt.
Tighten the bolt to 23 Nzm (17 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Install the distributor cap (with the ignition ca-
bles) on the distributor housing (Fig. 10). Tighten
distributor cap holddown screws to 3 Nzm (26 in. lbs.)
torque.
(5) Connect the distributor wiring harness to the
main engine harness.

JIGNITION SYSTEMS 8D - 23

CAUTION: Do not puncture the spark plug cables or
boots to make the connection. Use proper adapters.
(6) Connect battery cable to battery.
ENGINE ROTATED AFTER REMOVAL
There is a fork on the distributor housing where
the housing seats against the engine block. The slot
in the fork aligns with the hole for the distributor
holddown bolt in the engine block. The distributor is
correctly installed when the rotor is correctly posi-
tioned. This is when the slot in the fork is aligned
with the hole for the distributor holddown bolt in the
cylinder block. Because of the fork on the distributor
housing, initial ignition timing is not adjustable (the
distributor cannot be rotated).
(1) If the engine was rotated while the distributor
was removed, it will be necessary to establish timing
according to following procedure:
²Remove the No. 1 spark plug. Hold a finger over
the spark plug hole and rotate the engine until com-
pression pressure is felt. Slowly continue to rotate
the engine. Do this until the timing index on vibra-
tion damper pulley aligns with top dead center (TDC)mark (0 degree) on timing degree scale. Always ro-
tate the engine in direction of normal rotation. Do
not turn the engine backward to align the timing
marks.
²Using a flat blade screwdriver, rotate the oil pump
gear. Do this to position the gear slot on the oil
pump shaft slightly before the 11 o'clock position
(Fig. 11).
²With the distributor cap removed, install the dis-
tributor with the rotor located just past the 2 o'clock
position (Fig. 12).
²When distributor is fully engaged in its correct lo-
cation, the rotor should be just past the 3 o'clock po-
sition (Fig. 13).
²Install the distributor holddown clamp and bolt.
Tighten the holddown bolt to 23 Nzm (17 ft. lbs.)
torque.
CAUTION: If the distributor cap is incorrectly posi-
tioned on distributor housing, the cap or rotor may
be damaged when engine is started.
(2) Install the distributor cap (with ignition cables)
on the distributor housing. Be sure that the cap fits
securely on rim of the distributor housing.
(3) Connect the distributor wiring harness to the
main engine harness.
CAUTION: Do not puncture the spark plug cables or
boots to make the connection. Use proper adapters.
REMOVALÐ4.0L ENGINE
The distributor used in the 4.0L engine contains an
internal oil seal that prevents oil from entering the
distributor housing. The seal is not serviceable.

The timing mark is on the edge of the vibra-
tion damper closest to the engine front cover.
(6) Align the trailing edge of the rotor blade with
the scribe mark on the distributor housing (Fig. 16).
(7) Remove the distributor holddown bolt and
clamp.
(8) Remove the distributor from the engine by lift-
ing straight up. Remove and discard old distributor-
to-engine block gasket. Note that the rotor willrotate slightly in a counterclockwise direction while
lifting up the distributor. Note this position after re-
moval.

fer to Group 8U - Chime/Buzzer Warning Systems.
RADIO/CLOCK ILLUMINATION
With the ignition switch in ACCESSORY or ON,
power comes from the radio fuse. It then goes
through the normally closed contacts of the radio il-
lumination relay to the radio at connector terminal
11.
Pulling the headlamp switch to ON energizes the
radio illumination relay. This closes the normally
open contacts of the relay, and the brightness for the
radio display is controlled by the headlamp switch
rheostat. The back-lighting for the radio is also con-
trolled by the headlamp rheostat through radio con-
nector terminal 10.
Refer to Group 8F - Audio Systems, for radio illu-
mination relay diagnosis.
INSTRUMENT PANEL LAMPS
Voltage is supplied at all times from the 40 amp
Maxi fuse (located in the Power Distribution Center)
through the park lamps fuse to the headlamp switch.
The circuit continues through the instrument lamps
fuse to the individual instrument panel lamps to
ground. Lamp brightness is controlled by turning the
headlamp switch knob.

(1) Inspect fuse #9. Replace as required.
(2) Measure voltage at instrument cluster connec-
tor terminal 20. Meter should read zero ohms. If not,
repair open to ground.
UPSHIFT INDICATOR LAMP
Vehicles equipped with manual transmissions have
an optional upshift indicator lamp. The lamp is con-
trolled by the PCM. The lamp lights to indicate when
the driver should shift to the next highest gear for best
fuel economy. The PCM will turn the lamp off after 3 to
5 seconds if the upshift is not performed. The lamp will
remain off until the vehicle stops accelerating and is
brought back to the range of lamp operation or shifted
into another gear.
The indicator lamp is normally illuminated when
the ignition switch is turned ON and it is turned off
when the engine is started. The lamp will be lighted
during engine operation according to engine speed
and load.
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON.
(2) Ground pin 2 of cluster connector. Lamp should
light. If not, replace bulb. If OK, continue with step 3.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Check for conti-
nuity between cluster connector pin 2 and pin 54 of
the PCM. If not, repair open. If OK, refer to DRB
scan tool actuator test of upshift indicator.
BRAKE INDICATOR LAMP
The brake indicator is a dual function lamp. It will in-
dicate an unequal pressure condition in the split brake
hydraulic system and it also will indicate when the park-
ing brake is engaged. Separate switches are used for each
indicator lamp function. A switch mounted on the brake
pedal assembly will close a ground circuit whenever the
parking brakes are applied. A second switch is installed
in the brake hydraulic lines near the master cylinder. If
the switch is balanced by equal pressure on both ends of
the switch valve, the valve remains centered and the
lamp remains off. If the valve is shifted by unequal pres-
sure between the front or rear brake hydraulic systems,
the lamp circuit is connected to ground. To make sure
the brake lamp is functional before the vehicle is driven,
it is illuminated through a ground circuit when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the START position.
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON.
(2) Ground pin 1 of the cluster connector. Lamp
should light. If not, replace bulb. If OK, continue
with step 3.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Check for continuity to
park brake switch and brake warning switch.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (CHECK ENGINE)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (Check Engine) il-
luminates each time the ignition switch is turned
ON and stays on for 3 seconds as a bulb test.If the PCM receives an incorrect signal or no signal
from certain sensors or emission related systems the
lamp is turned on (pin 32 of PCM). This is a warning
that the PCM has recorded a system or sensor mal-
function. In some cases when a diagnostic fault is de-
clared the PCM will go into a limp-in mode in an
attempt to keep the system operating. It signals an
immediate need for service.
The lamp also can be used to display diagnostic
trouble codes (DTC). Cycle the ignition switch ON,
OFF, ON, OFF, ON within 5 seconds. This will allow
any DTC's stored in the PCM memory to be dis-
played in a series of flashes representing digits.
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON.
(2) Ground pin 4 of cluster connector. Lamp should
light. If not, replace bulb. If OK, continue with step 3.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Check for conti-
nuity between cluster connector pin 4 and PCM cav-
ity 32. If OK, replace PCM. If not, repair open.
SEAT BELT REMINDER LAMP
Apply 12 volts to terminal 16 of cluster connector.
Lamp should light. If not, replace bulb. If OK, check
wiring for an open to buzzer module. Refer to Group
8U - Chime/Buzzer Warning Systems.
INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATION LAMPS
The instrument panel illumination lamps share
two common connections. There is a splice after fuse
#10 that connects the lamps to battery feed. There is
also a splice that connects all lamps to ground. Be-
cause they share these common connection points in
a parallel circuit, the illumination lamps will all
come on at the same time. It also means one or more
lamps can be out without affecting the operation of
the other lamps.
On the battery side of the circuit, the headlamp
switch illumination rheostat/switch and panel lamps
fuse receive battery feed in series from the park/tail
fuse. In the park lamp position, the headlamp switch
completes the circuit from the park/tail fuse to the il-
lumination rheostat/switch and panel lamps fuse.
The illumination rheostat contains a variable resis-
tor that allows the driver to vary illumination inten-
sity from off to full brightness.
DIAGNOSIS
(1) Turn parking lamps ON.
(2) Check fuse #10. Replace as required.
(3) Measure voltage at battery side of fuse #10
with rheostat turned counterclockwise to clockwise
(LO to HI). Meter should read zero volts to battery
voltage. If not, replace headlamp switch.
(4) Measure resistance at ground side of fuse #10
with parking lamps OFF. Meter should read almost
zero ohms (except bulb filament). If not, repair open
to ground. If zero ohms, 12 volt supply wire from fuse
is shorted to ground, repair short.

FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS GENERAL
INFORMATION
The non-intermittent windshield wiper circuit con-
tains three components; control switch, motor and
washer pump. The intermittent circuit contains the
same components and a wiper module that provides
the delay function. Both circuits receive battery feed
from and are protected by a 5.3 amp circuit breaker.
In the non-intermittent wiper circuit, the switch
connects the motor directly to ignition feed for low
and high speed operation. In the intermittent circuit,
the switch supplies ignition feed to the delay module,
which then supplies the motor. In the delay position,
the module is connected with the variable resistor in
the wiper switch. The value of the resistance is used
by the solid state module to charge a capacitor,
which triggers the amount of delay between wipes.
The wiper motor has an arrangement of brushes
providing the two wiper speeds. When the wipers are
turned off, the park switch maintains current to the
motor until the wipers reach the park position on the
windshield.
The washer pump receives ignition feed either di-
rectly from the wiper switch or from the intermittent
module. In either case the electric motor will drive
the washer pump.
The wiper motor is mounted on the lower left cor-
ner of the windshield.
FRONT WIPER BLADE REPLACEMENT
Rotate the wiper blade release (Fig. 1) clockwise.
This will release the wiper blade from the pivot pin.
CAUTION: Take care to ensure that the wiper arm
does not strike the windshield after the wiper blade
has been removed.
To install, place the blade assembly on the wiper
arm and snap the blade assembly into position.
FRONT WIPER ARM REPLACEMENT
(1) Pull the wiper arm forward.
(2) Insert an ice pick type tool into the hole (Fig.
