JUNCTION BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
An electrical Junction Block (JB) is concealed
beneath the driver side of the instrument panel in
the passenger compartment of the vehicle (Fig. 3).
The JB combines the functions previously provided
by a separate fuseblock module and relay center. The
JB serves to simplify and centralize numerous elec-
trical components, as well as to distribute electrical
current to many of the accessory systems in the vehi-
cle. It also eliminates the need for numerous splice
connections. The JB houses up to thirty-three blade-
type mini fuses, up to two blade-type automatic
resetting circuit breakers, the electronic combination
flasher, the Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) module
(Canada only) and up to twelve International Stan-
dards Organization (ISO) relays (three standard-type
and nine micro-type). The JB also incorporates an
integral connector and mounting for the Body Con-
trol Module (BCM). The BCM is secured with four
screws directly to the dash panel side of the JB.
Refer toBody Control Modulein Electronic Con-
trol Modules for additional information covering the
BCM.
The molded plastic JB housing has integral mounts
that are secured with two screws and two snap
retainers to the instrument panel steering column
support bracket behind the instrument panel steer-ing column opening cover. The JB is concealed above
the molded plastic instrument panel fuse cover. Inte-
gral latches molded into the fuse cover secure it the
JB, the BCM and the 16-way data link connector tab
of the instrument panel steering column support
bracket. The fuse cover can be pulled downward to
disengage the latches and provide service access to
all of the fuses, relays and wire harness connectors of
the JB. The fuse cover has a fuse puller and spare
fuses secured to its upper surface. Refer toInstru-
ment Panel Fuse Coverin Body for additional ser-
vice information.
The JB unit cannot be repaired and is only ser-
viced as an assembly. If any internal circuit or the JB
housing is faulty or damaged, the entire JB unit
must be replaced. The BCM is available for separate
service replacement.
OPERATION
All of the circuits entering and leaving the Junc-
tion Block (JB) do so through up to five wire harness
connectors, which are connected to the JB through
integral connector receptacles molded into the JB
housing. Internal connection of all of the JB circuits
is accomplished by a printed circuit board. There are
also two separate wire harness connections to con-
nector receptacles that are integral to the BCM.
Refer toJunction Blockin Wiring Diagrams for
additional information and the location of complete
JB circuit diagrams.

POWER OUTLET
DESCRIPTION - FRONT POWER OUTLET
An accessory power outlet is standard equipment
on this model. The power outlet is installed in the
instrument panel center lower bezel, which is located
near the bottom of the instrument panel center stack
area, below the heater and air conditioner controls.
The power outlet base is secured by a snap fit within
the center lower bezel. A hinged door with an over-
center spring flips closed to conceal and protect the
power outlet base when the power outlet is not being
used, and flips open below the center lower bezel
while the power outlet is in use.
The power outlet receptacle unit and the power
outlet door are each available for service replace-
ment.
OPERATION - FRONT POWER OUTLET
The power outlet base or receptacle shell is con-
nected to ground, and an insulated contact in the
bottom of the shell is connected to battery current.
The power outlet receives battery voltage from a fuse
in the junction block at all times.
While the power outlet is very similar to a cigar
lighter base unit, it does not include the two small
spring-clip retainers inside the bottom of the recepta-
cle shell that are used to secure the cigar lighter
heating element to the insulated contact.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER OUTLET
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toHorn/Ci-
gar Lighter/Power Outletin Wiring Diagrams.

(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the junction block.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted cir-
cuit or component as required and replace the faulty
fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
in the junction block. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK,
repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC) fuse as required.
(3) Open the power outlet door. Check for continu-
ity between the inside circumference of the power
8W - 97 - 12 8W-97 POWER DISTRIBUTIONWJ
POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER (Continued)

The cigar lighter relay cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The ISO relay consists of an electromagnetic coil, a
resistor or diode, and three (two fixed and one mov-
able) electrical contacts. The movable (common feed)
relay contact is held against one of the fixed contacts
(normally closed) by spring pressure. When the elec-
tromagnetic coil is energized, it draws the movable
contact away from the normally closed fixed contact,
and holds it against the other (normally open) fixed
contact.
When the electromagnetic coil is de-energized,
spring pressure returns the movable contact to the
normally closed position. The resistor or diode is con-
nected in parallel with the electromagnetic coil in the
relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes that are
produced when the coil is de-energized.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER OUTLET
RELAY
The power outlet / cigar lighter relay (Fig. 16) is
located in the junction block, below the driver side
end of the instrument panel in the passenger com-
partment. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to
Horn/Cigar Lighter/Power Outletin Wiring Dia-
grams.
WARNING: REFER TO RESTRAINTS BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE
PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCI-
DENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE
PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Remove the power outlet / cigar lighter relay
from the junction block. Refer to the procedure in
this group.
(2) A relay in the de-energized position should
have continuity between terminals 87A and 30, and
no continuity between terminals 87 and 30. If OK, go
to Step 3. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(3) Resistance between terminals 85 and 86 (elec-
tromagnet) should be 75   5 ohms. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(4) Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86.
There should now be continuity between terminals
30 and 87, and no continuity between terminals 87A
and 30. If OK, perform the Relay Circuit Test that
follows. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - RELAY CIRCUIT TEST
(1) The relay common feed terminal cavity (30) of
the junction block is connected to battery voltage and
should be hot at all times. Check for battery voltage
at the fused B(+) circuit cavity in the junction block
receptacle for the cigar lighter relay. If OK, go to
Step 2. If not OK, repair the fused B(+) circuit to the
Power Distribution Center (PDC) fuse as required.
(2) The relay normally closed terminal (87A) is
connected to terminal 30 in the de-energized position,
but is not used for this application. Go to Step 3.
(3) The relay normally open terminal (87) is con-
nected to the common feed terminal (30) in the ener-
gized position. This terminal supplies battery voltage
to the fused B(+) fuse in the junction block that feeds
the cigar lighter when the relay is energized by the
ignition switch. There should be continuity between
the junction block cavity for relay terminal 87 and
the fused B(+) fuse in the junction block at all times.
If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused
B(+) circuit to the junction block fuse as required.
(4) The coil ground terminal (85) is connected to
the electromagnet in the relay. It receives battery
feed to energize the cigar lighter relay when the igni-
tion switch is in the Accessory or On positions. Turn
the ignition switch to the On position. Check for bat-
tery voltage at the fused ignition switch output (acc/
run) circuit cavity for relay terminal 85 in the
junction block receptacle for the cigar lighter relay. If
OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open fused
ignition switch output (acc/run) circuit to the ignition
switch as required.
(5) The coil battery terminal (86) is connected to
the electromagnet in the relay. The junction block
cavity for this terminal should have continuity to

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐCYLINDER
COMPRESSION PRESSURE
The results of a cylinder compression pressure test
can be utilized to diagnose several engine malfunc-
tions.
Ensure the battery is completely charged and the
engine starter motor is in good operating condition.
Otherwise, the indicated compression pressures may
not be valid for diagnosis purposes.
(1) Clean the spark plug recesses with compressed
air.
(2) Remove the spark plugs (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/IGNITION CONTROL/SPARK PLUG -
REMOVAL).
(3) Secure the throttle in the wide-open position.
(4) Disconnect the ignition coil.
(5) Insert a compression pressure gauge and rotate
the engine with the engine starter motor for three
revolutions.
(6) Record the compression pressure on the third
revolution. Continue the test for the remaining cylin-
ders.
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS) for the
correct engine compression pressures.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CYLINDER
COMBUSTION PRESSURE LEAKAGE
The combustion pressure leakage test provides an
accurate means for determining engine condition.
Combustion pressure leakage testing will detect:
²Exhaust and intake valve leaks (improper seat-
ing)
²Leaks between adjacent cylinders or into water
jacket²Any causes for combustion/compression pressure
loss
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE RADIATOR CAP
WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE.
SERIOUS BURNS FROM HOT COOLANT CAN
OCCUR.
Check the coolant level and fill as required. DO
NOT install the radiator cap.
Start and operate the engine until it attains nor-
mal operating temperature, then turn OFF the
engine.
Remove the spark plugs.
Remove the oil filler cap.
Remove the air cleaner.
Calibrate the tester according to the manufactur-
er's instructions. The shop air source for testing
should maintain 483 kPa (70 psi) minimum, 1,379
kPa (200 psi) maximum and 552 kPa (80 psi) recom-
mended.
Perform the test procedure on each cylinder accord-
ing to the tester manufacturer's instructions. While
testing, listen for pressurized air escaping through
the throttle body, tailpipe or oil filler cap opening.
Check for bubbles in the radiator coolant.
All gauge pressure indications should be equal,
with no more than 25% leakage.
FOR EXAMPLE:At 552 kPa (80 psi) input pres-
sure, a minimum of 414 kPa (60 psi) should be main-
tained in the cylinder CYLINDER COMBUSTION

prevent stripping bolts, only remove lower
nuts. The lower housing nuts are located under
left front inner fender (Fig. 6).
(a) To gain access to lower nuts, raise vehicle.
(b) Remove clips retaining rubber inner fender
shield.
(c) Pry back shield enough to gain access to
lower nuts.
(d) Remove 3 nuts.
(e) Remove air cleaner assembly from vehicle.
(4) If resonator is to be removed, disconnect
breather tube at resonator, disconnect air duct clamp
at resonator (Fig. 6)and remove 1 resonator mount-
ing bolt. Remove resonator from throttle body by
loosening clamp (Fig. 7).
INSTALLATION - 4.0L
(1) Position air cleaner assembly to body and
install 3 nuts. Tighten nuts to 10 N´m (93 in. lbs.)
torque.To prevent excessive vibration transmit-
ted through housing, the nuts must be properly
torqued. Do not overtighten nuts.
(2) If resonator was removed: Install resonator and
bolts. Tighten bolts to 4 N´m (35 in. lbs.) torque.
Tighten clamp at throttle body to 4 N´m (35 in. lbs.)
torque.
(3) Position fender liner and install clips.
(4) Connect air duct at housing (Fig. 6).
(5) Tighten air duct clamp.
CYLINDER HEAD
DESCRIPTION
The cylinder head is made of cast iron containing
twelve valves made of chrome plated heat resistant
steel, valve stem seals, springs, retainers and keep-
ers. The cylinder head and valve seats can be resur-
faced for service purposes.
The valve guides are integral to the cylinder head,
They are not replaceable. However, they are service-
able.
The cylinder head uses dual quench-type design
combustion chambers which cause turbulence in the
cylinders allowing faster burning of the air/fuel mix-
ture, resulting in better fuel economy (Fig. 8).
REMOVAL
NOTE: This procedure can be done with the engine
in or out of the vehicle.
(1) Disconnect the battery negative cable.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE CYLINDER
BLOCK DRAIN PLUGS OR LOOSEN THE RADIATOR
DRAIN COCK WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND PRES-
SURIZED BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM THE
COOLANT CAN OCCUR.
