WIRE CODE IDENTIFICATION
Each wire shown in the diagrams contains a code
(Fig. 3) which identifies the main circuit, part of the
main circuit, gauge of wire, and color. The color is
shown as a two letter code which can be identified by
referring to the Wire Color Code Chart (Fig. 4). If the
wire has a tracer and it is a standard color an aster-
isk will follow the main wire color. If the tracer is
non-standard the main wire color will have a slash (/)
after it followed by the tracer color.
CIRCUIT IDENTIFICATION
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric
code to identify the wire and its function. To identify
which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the
Circuit Identification Code Chart. This chart shows
the main circuits only and does not show the second-
ary codes that may apply to some models.
LOCATING A SYSTEM
To locate a system or component in the diagrams,
refer to the alphabetical index at the front of the di-
agrams. Determine the diagram sheet number. Sheet
numbers are located at the lower right or left handcorner of each sheet.Page numbers at the top of
the page do not apply to diagram sheets.
The index identifies the main system and all com-
ponents that relate to that system. There are also
sections of the index that identify specific compo-
nents only (for example modules, lamps, etc.). Refer
to a components name in the index if you are unclear
as to what a system may be called.
Diagram sheets are arranged starting with the bat-
tery and fuses. Then working into charging, starting,
and ignition systems. After this they start at the
front of the vehicle and work to rear. The diagrams
end with connector identification pages.
COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
When looking for a components location in the vehicle
refer to the Component Identification section index.
This section shows the wire harness routing and the
components location in the vehicle. When using this sec-
tion refer to the wiring diagrams for the general loca-
tion of the component. Then use the component
identification index to locate the proper figure number.
SPLICE LOCATIONS
Splice locations are indicated in the diagrams by a
diamond with a splice circuit code within it (Fig. 5
example 1). If there is more than one splice per cir-
cuit a small box will be connected to it with the
splice number in it (Fig. 5 example 2).
To locate a splice in the wiring harness determine
the splice number from the wiring diagrams then re-
fer to the splice location index. This section shows
the general location of the splice in the harness.

GENERAL INFORMATION
All 2.5L 4 cylinder and 4.0L 6 cylinder engines are
equipped with sequential Multi-Port Fuel Injection
(MFI). The MFI system provides precise air/fuel ra-
tios for all driving conditions.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) operates
the fuel system. The PCM was formerly referred to
as the SBEC or engine controller. The PCM is a pre-
programmed, dual microprocessor digital computer.
It regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, emission
control devices, charging system, speed control, air
conditioning compressor clutch engagement and idle
speed. The PCM can adapt its programming to meet
changing operating conditions.
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Inputsrep-
resent the instantaneous engine operating conditions.
Air-fuel mixture and ignition timing calibrations for
various driving and atmospheric conditions are pre-
programmed into the PCM. The PCM monitors and
analyzes various inputs. It then computes engine fuel
and ignition timing requirements based on these in-
puts. Fuel delivery control and ignition timing will
then be adjusted accordingly.
Other inputs to the PCM are provided by the brake
light switch, air conditioning select switch and the
speed control switches. All inputs to the PCM are
converted into signals.
Electrically operated fuel injectors spray fuel in
precise metered amounts into the intake port directlyabove the intake valve. The injectors are fired in a
specific sequence by the PCM. The PCM maintains
an air/fuel ratio of 14.7 to 1 by constantly adjusting
injector pulse width. Injector pulse width is the
length of time that the injector opens and sprays fuel
into the chamber. The PCM adjusts injector pulse
width by opening and closing the ground path to the
injector.
Manifold absolute pressure (air density) and engine
rpm (speed) are the primary inputs that determine
fuel injector pulse width. The PCM also monitors
other inputs when adjusting air-fuel ratio.
Inputs That Effect Fuel Injector Pulse Width
²Exhaust gas oxygen content
²Engine coolant temperature
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP)
²Engine speed
²Throttle position
²Battery voltage
²Air conditioning selection
²Transmission gear selection (automatic transmis-
sions only)
²Speed control
The powertrain control module (PCM) adjusts igni-
tion timing by controlling ignition coil operation. The
ignition coil receives battery voltage when the igni-
tion key is in the run or starter position. The PCM
provides a ground for the ignition coil. The coil dis-
JFUEL SYSTEM 14 - 17

charges when the PCM supplies a ground. By switch-
ing the ground path on and off, the PCM regulates
ignition timing.
The sensors and switches that provide inputs to the
powertrain control module (PCM) comprise the En-
gine Control System. It is also comprised of the PCM
Outputs (engine control devices that the are operated
by the PCM).
SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
The powertrain control module (PCM) tests many
of its own input and output circuits. If a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is found in a major system, this
information is stored in the PCM memory. Refer to
On-Board Diagnostics in the MFI SystemÐGeneral
Diagnosis section of this group for DTC information.
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The PCM operates the fuel system. The PCM was
formerly referred to as the SBEC or engine control-
ler. The PCM is a pre-programmed, dual micropro-
cessor digital computer. It regulates ignition timing,
air-fuel ratio, emission control devices, charging sys-
tem, speed control, air conditioning compressor
clutch engagement and idle speed. The PCM can
adapt its programming to meet changing operating
conditions.
On XJ models, the PCM is located in the engine
compartment next to the air cleaner (Fig. 1). On YJ
models, the PCM is located in the engine compart-
ment behind the windshield washer fluid reservoir
(Fig. 2).
The PCM receives input signals from various
switches and sensors. Based on these inputs, the
PCM regulates various engine and vehicle operations
through different system components. These compo-
nents are referred to as PCM Outputs. The sensors
and switches that provide inputs to the PCM are con-
sidered PCM Inputs.The PCM adjusts ignition timing based upon in-
puts it receives from sensors that react to: engine
rpm, manifold absolute pressure, coolant tempera-
ture, throttle position, transmission gear selection
(automatic transmission), vehicle speed and the
brake switch.
The PCM adjusts idle speed based on inputs it re-
ceives from sensors that react to: throttle position,
vehicle speed, transmission gear selection, coolant
temperature and from inputs it receives from the air
conditioning clutch switch and brake switch.
Based on inputs that it receives, the PCM adjusts
ignition coil dwell. The PCM also adjusts the gener-
ator charge rate through control of the generator
field and provides speed control operation.
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Inputs:
²Generator output
²A/C request (if equipped with factory A/C)
²A/C select (if equipped with factory A/C)
²Auto shut down (ASD) sense
²Intake air temperature sensor
²Battery voltage
²Brake switch
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Ignition circuit sense (ignition switch in run posi-
tion)
²Manifold absolute pressure sensor
²Overdrive/override switch
²Oxygen sensor
²Park/neutral switch (auto. trans. only)
²SCI receive (DRB scan tool connection)
²Speed control resume switch

14 - 18 FUEL SYSTEMJ

FUEL PUMP RELAYÐPCM OUTPUT
The PCM energizes the fuel pump through the fuel
pump relay. Battery voltage is applied to the relay
from the ignition switch. The relay is energized when
a ground is provided by the PCM. Refer to Automatic
Shut Down Relay for additional information.
FUEL INJECTORSÐPCM OUTPUT
Six individual fuel injectors are used with the 4.0L
6 cylinder engine. Four individual fuel injectors are
used with the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. The injectors
are attached to the fuel rail (Fig. 19).
The nozzle ends of the injectors are positioned into
openings in the intake manifold just above the in-
take valve ports of the cylinder head. The engine
wiring harness connector for each fuel injector is
equipped with an attached numerical tag (INJ 1, INJ
2 etc.). This is used to identify each fuel injector.
The injectors are energized individually in a se-
quential order by the powertrain control module
(PCM). The PCM will adjust injector pulse width by
switching the ground path to each individual injector
on and off. Injector pulse width is the period of time
that the injector is energized. The PCM will adjust
injector pulse width based on various inputs it re-
ceives.
During start up, battery voltage is supplied to the
injectors through the ASD relay. When the engine is
operating, voltage is supplied by the charging sys-
tem. The PCM determines injector pulse width based
on various inputs.
GENERATOR FIELDÐPCM OUTPUT
The powertrain control module (PCM) regulates
the charging system voltage within a range of 12.9 to
15.0 volts. Refer to Group 8A for charging system in-
formation.
GENERATOR LAMPÐPCM OUTPUT
IF EQUIPPED
If the powertrain control module (PCM) senses a
low charging condition in the charging system, it
will illuminate the generator lamp on the instrument
panel. For example, during low idle with all accesso-
ries turned on, the light may momentarily go on.
Once the PCM corrects idle speed to a higher rpm,
the light will go out. Refer to Group 8A, Battery/
Starting/Charging Systems for charging system in-
formation.
IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) MOTORÐPCM OUTPUT
The IAC motor is mounted on the throttle body
(Figs. 20 or 21) and is controlled by the powertrain
control module (PCM).
The throttle body has an air control passage that
provides air for the engine at idle (the throttle plate
is closed). The IAC motor pintle protrudes into the
air control passage and regulates air flow through it.
Based on various sensor inputs, the powertrain con-
trol module (PCM) adjusts engine idle speed by mov-

terminals number 87A and 30.
(8) Disconnect jumper wires from relay and 12
Volt power source.
If continuity or resistance tests did not pass, re-
place relay. If tests passed, refer to Group 8W, Wir-
ing Diagrams for additional circuit information. Also
refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual for operation of the DRB scan tool.
STARTER MOTOR RELAY TEST
Refer to Group 8A, Battery/Starting/Charging/Sys-
tem Diagnostics, for starter motor relay testing.
INJECTOR TEST
Disconnect the injector wire connector from the in-
jector. Place an ohmmeter on the injector terminals.
Resistance reading should be approximately 14.5
ohms61.2 ohms at 20ÉC (68ÉF). Proceed to following
Injector Diagnosis chart.
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST
Refer to the Fuel Delivery System section of this
group. See Fuel System Pressure Test.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS (OBD)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has been
programmed to monitor many different circuits of the
fuel injection system. If a problem is sensed in a
monitored circuit often enough to indicate an actual
problem, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored.
The DTC will be stored in the PCM memory for
eventual display to the service technician. If the
problem is repaired or ceases to exist, the PCM can-
cels the DTC after 51 engine starts.
Certain criteria must be met for a diagnostic trou-
ble code (DTC) to be entered into PCM memory. The
criteria may be a specific range of engine rpm, en-
gine temperature and/or input voltage to the PCM.
It is possible that a DTC for a monitored circuit
may not be entered into memory even though a mal-
function has occurred. This may happen because one
of the DTC criteria for the circuit has not been met.
Example: assume that one of the criteria for the
MAP sensor circuit is that the engine must be oper-
ating between 750 and 2000 rpm to be monitored for
a DTC. If the MAP sensor output circuit shorts to
ground when the engine rpm is above 2400 rpm, a 0
volt input will be seen by the PCM. A DTC will not
be entered into memory because the condition does
not occur within the specified rpm range.
A DTC indicates that the powertrain control mod-
ule (PCM) has recognized an abnormal signal in a
circuit or the system. A DTC may indicate the result
of a failure, but never identify the failed component
directly.There are several operating conditions that the
PCM does not monitor and set a DTC for. Refer to
the following Monitored Circuits and Non-Monitored
Circuits in this section.
MONITORED CIRCUITS
The powertrain control module (PCM) can detect
certain problems in the fuel injection system.
Open or Shorted Circuit- The PCM can deter-
mine if sensor output (which is the input to PCM) is
within proper range. It also determines if the circuit
is open or shorted.
Output Device Current Flow- The PCM senses
whether the output devices are hooked up.
If there is a problem with the circuit, the PCM
senses whether the circuit is open, shorted to ground
(-), or shorted to (+) voltage.
Oxygen Sensor- The PCM can determine if the
oxygen sensor is switching between rich and lean.
This is, once the system has entered Closed Loop. Re-
fer to Open Loop/Closed Loop Modes Of Operation in
the Component Description/System Operation section
for an explanation of Closed (or Open) Loop opera-
tion.
NON-MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM does not monitor the following circuits,
systems or conditions that could have malfunctions
that result in driveability problems. A Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) may not be displayed for these
conditions.
Fuel Pressure: Fuel pressure is controlled by the
vacuum assisted fuel pressure regulator. The PCM
cannot detect a clogged fuel pump inlet filter, clogged
in-line fuel filter, or a pinched fuel supply or return
line. However, these could result in a rich or lean
condition causing an oxygen sensor DTC to be stored
in the PCM.
Secondary Ignition Circuit: The PCM cannot
detect an inoperative ignition coil, fouled or worn
spark plugs, ignition cross firing, or open circuited
spark plug cables.
Engine Timing: The PCM cannot detect an incor-
rectly indexed timing chain, camshaft sprocket or
crankshaft sprocket. The PCM also cannot detect an
incorrectly indexed distributor. However, these could
result in a rich or lean condition causing an oxygen
sensor DTC to be stored in the PCM.
Cylinder Compression: The PCM cannot detect
uneven, low, or high engine cylinder compression.
Exhaust System: The PCM cannot detect a
plugged, restricted or leaking exhaust system.
Fuel Injector Malfunctions: The PCM cannot de-
termine if the fuel injector is clogged, or the wrong
injector is installed. However, these could result in a
rich or lean condition causing an oxygen sensor DTC
to be stored in the PCM.

JFUEL SYSTEM 14 - 53

WARNING: LARGE AMOUNTS OF REFRIGERANT
RELEASED IN A CLOSED WORK AREA WILL DIS-
PLACE THE OXYGEN AND CAUSE SUFFOCATION.
ALWAYS MAINTAIN GOOD VENTILATION SUR-
ROUNDING THE WORK AREA.
R-12 gas, under normal conditions, is non-poison-
ous.
WARNING: THE DISCHARGE OF R-12 GAS NEAR
AN OPEN FLAME CAN PRODUCE A VERY POISON-
OUS GAS CALLED PHOSGENE. PHOSGENE IS
GENERATED WHEN A FLAME-TYPE LEAK DETEC-
TOR IS USED.
CAUTION: When charging an A/C system always
keep the tank in an upright position. If the tank is
on its side or upside down, liquid refrigerant will
enter the system and may damage the compressor.
In most instances when charging or adding refrig-
erant, moderate heat is required to bring the pres-
sure of the refrigerant above the pressure of the
system. A bucket or large pan of hot water, not over
52ÉC (125ÉF), is all the heat required for this pur-
pose. DO NOT heat the refrigerant container with a
blow torch or any other means that would raise the
temperature and pressure above this temperature.
CAUTION: DO NOT allow liquid refrigerant to touch
bright metal. Refrigerant will tarnish bright metal
and chrome surfaces. Refrigerant in combination
with moisture is very corrosive and can cause ex-
tensive damage to all metal surfaces.
Avoid splashing the refrigerant on any surface.
RECYCLING
(R-12) refrigerant is a chloroflorocarbon (CFC) that
can contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer in
the upper atmosphere. Ozone filters out harmful ra-
diation from the sun. To assist in protecting the
ozone layer, Chrysler Corporation requires that an
(R-12) refrigerant recovery device that meets SAE
standard J1991 be used. Contact an automotive ser-
vice equipment supplier for refrigerant recycling
equipment that is available in your area. Refer to
the operating instructions provided with the recy-
cling equipment for proper operation.
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Never open or loosen a connection before discharg-
ing the system refrigerant.
A system which has been opened to replace a com-
ponent or one which has discharged through leakage
must be evacuated before charging.
Immediately after disconnecting a component from
the system, seal the open fittings with a cap or plug.Before disconnecting a component from the system,
clean the outside of the fittings thoroughly.
DO NOT remove the sealing caps from a replace-
ment component until ready to install.
Refrigerant oil will absorb moisture from the atmo-
sphere if left uncapped. DO NOT open an oil con-
tainer until ready to use and install the cap
immediately after using. Store the oil only in a clean
moisture-free container.
Before connecting an open fitting always install a
new seal ring. Coat the fitting and seal with clean
refrigerant oil before connecting.
When installing a refrigerant line avoid sharp
bends. Position the line away from the exhaust or
any sharp edges which may chafe the line.
Tighten fittings only to the specified torque. The
copper and aluminum fittings used in the A/C system
will not tolerate over tightening.
When disconnecting a fitting use a wrench on both
halves of the fitting to prevent twisting of the refrig-
erant lines or tubes.
DO NOT open a refrigerant system or uncap a re-
placement component unless it is as close as possible
to room temperature. This will prevent condensation
from forming inside of a component which is cooler
than the surrounding air.
Keep service tools and the work area clean. Con-
tamination of A/C system through careless work hab-
its must be avoided.
PRESSURE GAUGE AND MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY
Pressure Gauge and Manifold Assembly Tool
C-3740-B (Fig. 1) is the most important tool used to
service the air conditioning system. The gauge as-
sembly is used to determine:
²System high side gauge pressures
²System low side gauge pressures
²The correct refrigerant charge
²System diagnosis
It is designed to provide simultaneous high and low
side pressure indications, because these pressures
must be compared to determine the correct system
operation.
LOW SIDE GAUGE
The low side gauge is a compound gauge, which
means that it will register both pressure and vacuum
(Fig. 1). The compound gauge is calibrated 0-1034
kPa (0-150 psi) pressure and 0-760 mm (0-30 in.) of
mercury vacuum. It is connected to the suction ser-
vice valve to check the low side pressure or vacuum.
HIGH SIDE GAUGE
The high side gauge is used to check the pressure
in the discharge side of the air conditioning system
(Fig. 1).
