(2) Touch one ohmmeter test lead to a good clean
ground point on the vehicle fender. Touch the other
test lead to the outer crimp on the antenna coaxial
cable connector under the right end of the instru-
ment panel near the right cowl side inner panel.
Check the ohmmeter reading for continuity.
(3) There should be continuity. The ohmmeter
should register less than one ohm resistance. High or
infinite resistance indicates a loose, corroded, or
damaged connection between the antenna body and
the vehicle body or between the antenna body and
the antenna coaxial cable shield. If not OK, clean the
antenna body to fender mating surfaces and tighten
the antenna cap nut to specifications.
(4) Check the resistance again with an ohmmeter.
If the resistance is still more then one ohm, replace
the faulty antenna body and cable.

RADIO
DESCRIPTION
Available factory-installed radio receivers for this
model include an AM/FM/cassette with CD changer
control feature (RBB sales code), an AM/FM/CD/2-
band graphic equalizer with CD changer control fea-
ture (RBK sales code), or an AM/FM/CD/cassette/2-
band graphic equalizer (RBP sales code). All factory-
installed radio receivers can communicate on theProgrammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus network through a separate wire harness connec-
tor. All factory-installed receivers are stereo Electron-
ically Tuned Radios (ETR) and include an electronic
digital clock function.
These radio receivers can only be serviced by an
authorized radio repair station. See the latest War-
ranty Policies and Procedures manual for a current
listing of authorized radio repair stations.
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed when the vehicle is
shipped from the factory. This fuse feeds various
accessories that require battery current when the
ignition switch is in the Off position, including the
clock. The IOD fuse is removed to prevent battery
discharge during vehicle storage.
When removing or installing the IOD fuse, it is
important that the ignition switch be in the Off posi-
tion. Failure to place the ignition switch in the Off
position can cause the radio display to become scram-
bled when the IOD fuse is removed and replaced.
Removing and replacing the IOD fuse again, with the
ignition switch in the Off position, will correct the
scrambled display condition.
The IOD fuse should be checked if the radio or
clock displays are inoperative. The IOD fuse is
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
Refer to the fuse layout label on the underside of the
PDC cover for IOD fuse identification and location.
OPERATION
The radio receiver operates on ignition switched
battery current that is available only when the igni-
tion switch is in the On or Accessory positions. The
electronic digital clock function of the radio operates
on fused battery current supplied through the IOD
fuse, regardless of the ignition switch position.
For more information on the features, setting pro-
cedures, and control functions for each of the avail-
able factory-installed radio receivers, refer to the
owner's manual. For complete circuit diagrams, refer

CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The chime warning system uses a single chime
tone generator that is integral to the Body Control
Module (BCM) to provide an audible indication of
vehicle conditions that may require the attention of
the vehicle operator (Fig. 1). The chime warning sys-
tem includes the following major components:
²Body Control Module
²Door Ajar Switch
²Headlamp Switch
²Ignition Switch
²Seat Belt SwitchHard wired circuitry connects many of the chime
warning system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle.
If the BCM or the chime tone generator are dam-
aged or faulty, the BCM unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The chime warning system components operate on
battery voltage received through the Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) on a non-switched B(+) circuit so that the sys-
tem may operate regardless of the ignition switch
position.

WJCHIME/BUZZER 8B - 1

The chime warning system provides an audible
indication to the vehicle operator under the following
conditions:
²Fasten Seat Belt Warning- The Body Control
Module (BCM) chime tone generator will generate
repetitive chimes to announce that an input from the
seat belt switch indicates the driver side front seat
belt is not fastened. Unless the driver side front seat
belt is fastened, the chimes will continue to sound for
a duration of about six seconds each time the ignition
switch is turned to the On position or until the driver
side front seat belt is fastened.
²Head/Park Lights-On Warning- The BCM
chime tone generator will generate repetitive chimes
at a fast rate to announce that a Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus driver door
ajar message, along with hard wired inputs from the
headlamp switch indicate that the exterior lamps are
turned On with the driver side front door opened.
The chime will continue to sound until the exterior
lamps are turned Off, the driver side front door is
closed, or the ignition switch is turned to the On
position.
²Key-In-Ignition Warning- The BCM chime
tone generator will generate repetitive chimes at a
fast rate to announce that a PCI data bus driver door
ajar message received from the Driver Door Module
(DDM), along with hard wired inputs from the key-
in-ignition warning switch indicate that the key is in
the ignition cylinder with the driver side front door
opened and the ignition switch in the Off position.
The chime will continue to sound until the key is
removed from the ignition lock cylinder, the driver
side front door is closed, or the ignition switch is
turned to the On position.
²Overspeed Warning- The BCM chime tone
generator will generate repetitive chimes at a slowrate to announce that a PCI data bus vehicle speed
message received from the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM) indicates that the vehicle speed is above
120 kilometers-per-hour (75 miles-per-hour). The
chimes will continue to sound until the vehicle speed
is below 120 kilometers-per-hour (75 miles-per-hour).
This feature is only enabled on a BCM that has been
programmed with a Middle East Gulf Coast Country
(GCC) country code.
²Tactile Beep Support- The BCM chime tone
generator will generate a single beep each time a
PCI data bus tactile beep request message is received
from the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) or the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module
(SKIM). This beep provides an audible confirmation
that an EVIC button was completely depressed, or
that the optional Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS) is in the ªCustomer Learnº mode.
²Warning Beep Support- The BCM chime tone
generator will generate a short series of beeps each
time a PCI data bus warning beep request message
is received from the EVIC or the Electro-Mechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC). These beeps provide an
audible alert to the vehicle operator, of certain visual
warning indications displayed by the EVIC and/or
the EMIC.
The BCM provides chime service for all available
features in the chime warning system. The BCM
relies upon message inputs received from other mod-
ules over the PCI data bus network to provide chime
service for all of the remaining chime warning sys-
tem features.
The internal programming of the BCM determines
the priority of each chime tone request input that is
received, as well as the rate and duration of each
chime tone that is to be generated.
