GENERAL INFORMATION
AM/FM radio model antennas must have a good
ground to eliminate static. The antenna mast is con-
nected to the inner wire of the coaxial cable and is
not grounded to any part of the vehicle. The coaxial
shield (the wire mesh) surrounding the center con-
ductor wire of the antenna lead-in cable is grounded
to the radio and the antenna base.

ROAD TEST
Refer to Operational Check (Road Test) section to
verify reports of speed control system malfunction.
INOPERATIVE SYSTEM
Road test vehicle to verify reports of speed control
system malfunction. An inspection should be made
for loose electrical and vacuum connections at the
servo.
Check for correct installation of the vacuum check
valve in the hose from servo to vacuum source. The
word VAC on the valve must point toward the vac-
uum source.
Corrosion should be removed from electrical termi-
nals and a light coating of Mopar MultiPurpose
Grease, or equivalent, applied.
Inspection also should be made to verify that both
ends of the speed control cable are securely attached.
CHECKING FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
(1) When trying to verify a speed control system
electronic malfunction use a DRB scan tool to find
the cause (refer to Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures
manual).
If DRB is not available, the Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) may be determined with the following
method:
(a) With key inserted in ignition switch, cycle
switch to ON position 3 times. On third cycle, leave
switch in ON position.
(b) After switch has been cycled 3 times, observe
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (CHECK ENGINE)
on instrument cluster. If a DTC is present, the code
will be displayed in a series of flashes representing
digits. Three flashes in rapid succession, a slight
pause, then 4 flashes in rapid succession would in-
dicate DTC 34.
(2) If a DTC 34 is observed, perform tests in the
sections Electrical Tests at Servo and Electrical Tests
at Powertrain Control Module.
If a DTC 15 is observed, perform test for a faulty
vehicle speed sensor.
(3) Correct any problems found when performing
these tests and recheck for DTC if changes were
made.
VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR TEST
For testing of the vehicle speed sensor and related
components, refer to Powertrain Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual.
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM ELECTRICAL
TESTS
Vehicle speed control systems may be tested using
two different methods. One involves use of a DRB
scan tool. If this test method is desired, refer to Pow-
ertrain Diagnostic Procedures manual.
The other test method uses a voltmeter. The volt-
meter method is described in the following tests.
If any information is needed concerning wiring, re-
fer to Section 8W - Wiring Diagrams.
CAUTION: When test probing for voltage or conti-
nuity at electrical connectors, care must be taken
not to damage connector, terminals, or seals. If
these components are damaged, intermittent or
complete system failure may occur.
ELECTRICAL TESTS AT SERVO
(1) Turn ignition switch to the ON position. With
speed control switch in the ON position, setup a volt-
meter to read battery voltage and connect negative
lead to a good chassis ground.
(2) Disconnect 4-way connector going to servo
(Figs. 2 and 3). Blue wire with red tracer of main
harness 4-way connector should read approximately
battery voltage. If not, check for loose connections,
brake switch adjustment or, repair main harness as
necessary.
(3) Connect a jumper wire between male and fe-
male terminals of blue wire with red tracer. The
other 3 male terminals from servo should show bat-
tery voltage. If not, replace servo.
(4) Using an ohmmeter, connect one lead to a good
body ground. Touch other lead to black wire terminal
in 4-way connector of main harness. Meter should
show continuity. If not, repair ground circuit as nec-
essary.

FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS
GENERAL
Two-speed electric windshield wipers and electric
washers are standard equipment. An optional inter-
mittent wiper system provides a pause between wipe
cycles for use during conditions of very light precipi-
tation.
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY position. A cir-
cuit breaker located in the fuse block protects the cir-
cuitry of the wiper system.
WIPERS
The standard windshield wiper circuit contains
three components; wiper/washer switch, motor, and
front washer pump. Both standard and intermittent
circuits are the same, except that the intermittent
circuit requires a module and delay resistance in the
wiper switch. Both circuits receive battery feed from,
and are protected by a 5.5 amp circuit breaker.
In the standard wiper circuit, the switch connects
the motor directly to battery feed for low and high
speed operation. In the intermittent circuit, the
switch supplies battery feed to the intermittent wiper
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 resis-tance is used by the 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 park arm in the motor assembly is connected
to the park switch and is driven by the motor. When
the wiper switch is turned off, current flows through
the contact and the module to the motor until the
wipers reach the park position.
CAUTION: The wiper arms and blades must not be
moved manually from side to side or damage may
result.
WASHERS
With the washer switch ON, current flows through
the washer pump to ground. The front washer pump
runs as long as the driver holds the switch ON. On
standard wipers, the washer switch automatically
moves the wiper switch to LO when the washer is
turned on. On intermittent wipers, the wiper module
runs the wiper motor on LO. Turning the switch to
OFF stops the wipers.
If the washer knob is depressed while the wiper
switch is in the OFF position, the wiper control will
operate for approximately 3 wipes and automatically
turn OFF.

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.
2).

Rear Window Defogger Grid Repair........... 2Rear Window Defogger Grid Test............. 1
Switch Testing............................ 2
Using heating elements bonded to the rear window
glass, the rear defogger will clear condensation, frost
and light snow coverings from the rear window.
The horizontal grid lines and vertical bus bar lines,
printed and baked on inside surface of the rear win-
dow glass, comprise an electrical circuit. The electri-
cally conductive lines are composed of a silver-
ceramic material which when baked on glass
becomes bonded to the glass and is highly resistant
to abrasion.
The electrical current required to produce the heat
in the grid is supplied through a relay and driver op-
erated switch. When the switch is momentarily de-
pressed, the relay senses a voltage change. This
voltage change causes the relay to change state and
complete a circuit to energize the relay. Once the re-
lay energizes, the contacts close connecting the grid
to battery power.
On the XJ, the power circuit to the grid is pro-
tected by the 25 amp, #18 fuse in the fuse box.
Power for fuse #18 comes from the power distribu-
tion center, fuse #F10. Power for the relay is pro-
tected by the 20 amp, #8 fuse located in the fuse box.
On the YJ, the grid is protected by a 25 amp #6
fuse, located in the fuse box. Power for the relay is
protected by 15 amp #9 fuse, located in the fuse box.
To defog the rear window, momentarily depress the
rocker switch. A light on the rocker switch will illu-
minate indicating that the defogger is operating.
If the ignition switch is ON the first activation of
the defog/defrost feature will last for 10 minutes.
Succeeding activations will last for 5 minutes unless
the ignition switch is turned OFF; then it will recy-
cle back to 10 minutes for the first activation.To stop defogger operation, momentarily push the
switch a second time.
CAUTION: Use care when washing the inside of the
rear window to prevent damage to the defogger
heating elements. Use a soft cloth and a mild wash-
ing solution. Wiping motions should be parallel to
the heating elements. Also, keep all objects a safe
distance from the window to prevent damaging the
heating elements.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER GRID TEST
It is possible, that a break may exist or occur in an
individual grid line resulting in no current flow
through the line. When a grid has an open circuit,
the area of glass normally cleared by that grid re-
mains fogged or iced unless, and until it is cleared by
the adjacent grids.
With the engine running at idle, push the rear
window defogger switch to the ON position and re-
lease. The pilot lamp in the rocker switch should
light, indicating defogger operation.
Using a 12-volt DC voltmeter, contact the positive
lead to the feed side vertical bus element on the in-
side surface of the glass. Contact the negative lead to
the ground side bus element. Meter should read be-
tween 11 and 13 volts. Connect the negative lead of
the voltmeter to a good ground; the meter reading
should be constant.
Keep the negative lead connected to ground. Use
the positive lead and carefully contact each grid at
the approximate centerline of the window.

GENERAL
The door lock actuators, including liftgate, are con-
trolled by two-way switches. To lock the doors, push
down on either switch. To unlock doors from inside
the vehicle push upward on either switch.
The power door locks do not lock or unlock the
doors from outside the vehicle. Insert the key into
the lock cylinder to lock or unlock each individual
door.
DESCRIPTION
The door locks are operated by reversible motors
that receive voltage from fuse #13 in the fuse panel.
Voltage is applied to the driver's side door lock
switch and the passenger's side door lock switch
through the #9 fuse. With the driver's side door lock
switch in LOCK, voltage is applied through the
switch to the door lock relay coil. The relay coil is
energized which closes the circuit from the circuit
breaker to the lock motor. The motor is grounded by
the unlock relay.
The passenger's side door lock window switch oper-
ates the same as the driver's door switch. The volt-
age and ground paths are reversed to unlock the
doors.
The power door lock operates with battery power
and, therefore, is independent of the ignition switch.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The keyless entry system consists of a portable re-
mote control transmitter and a receiver mounted in
the overhead console or between the sun visors. Sys-
tem operation is based on a coded infrared signal
from the transmitter to the receiver. The transmitter
is programmed into the receiver providing the correct
programming sequence is met.
When the keyless entry system is activated, the cor-
responding relay operates to supply voltage to the mo-
tors. The use of either relay determines the polarity of
the voltage that is supplied to the door lock motors.
When the keyless entry system is used, the trans-
mitter sends a signal to the keyless entry module. If
the doors are unlocked, the module activates a tran-
sistor switch to apply voltage to the lock relay coil.
The coil is energized to close the normally open con-
tacts of the lock relay. Battery voltage from the relay
is applied to the door lock motors to lock the doors.
Current flows in the same path to ground as it does
when the master door lock switch is used.When the doors are locked, the keyless entry mod-
ule applies voltage to the unlock relay coil and a
similar action takes places to unlock the doors.
TRANSMITTER
The pocket size, solid state transmitter operates on
(2) 3-volt lithium (CR1616) batteries (Fig. 1). The
transmitter is activated by pressing either the LOCK
or UNLOCK button. This closes the internal contacts
that complete the battery circuit.
The battery voltage activates the transmitter diode
which in turn generates a coded infrared signal. The
signal is transmitted as pulses of infrared light.
If the red LED on the side of the transmitter does
not light when the transmitter is activated, the bat-
teries are low.
RECEIVER
The receiver is in circuit with the electric door lock
system. The coded infrared signal is picked up by the
receiver diode and is shaped, amplified and decoded by
an integrated circuit within the receiver. If the signal
