BCM programming then performs those tasks and
provides features through both PCI data bus commu-
nication with other electronic modules and hard
wired outputs to a number of relays. These relays
provide the BCM with the ability to control numer-
ous high current accessory systems in the vehicle.
The BCM circuitry operates on battery current
received through fuses in the Junction Block (JB) on a
non-switched fused B(+) circuit, a fused ignition switch
output (start-run) circuit, and a fused ignition switch
output (run-accessory) circuit. This arrangement allows
the BCM to provide some features regardless of the
ignition switch position. The BCM circuitry is grounded
through the chassis beneath the center console.
The BCM monitors its own internal circuitry as
well as many of its input and output circuits, and
will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in elec-
tronic memory for any failure it detects. These DTCs
can be retrieved and diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

DESCRIPTION
A door module is concealed behind the trim panel
of each front door (Fig. 7).The module on the driver
side is referred to as the Driver Door Module (DDM),
while the module on the passenger side is the Pas-
senger Door Module (PDM). Each door module
houses both the front power lock and power window
switches. In addition to the power window and power
lock switches for its own door, the DDM also houses
individual switches for each passenger door power
window, a power window lockout switch, the power
mirror switch, and the power foldaway mirror switch
for export vehicles.
The DDM and PDM each utilize integrated cir-
cuitry and information carried on the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network
along with many hard wired inputs to monitor many
sensor and switch inputs throughout the vehicle. The
PDM also receives inputs through an integral Radio

tion.
The door modules are serviced only as complete
units. Many of the features in the vehicle controlled
or supported by the door modules are programmable
using either the Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) user interface, or the DRBIIItscan tool. If
a door module is damaged or faulty, the entire door
module unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The microprocessor-based DDM and PDM hard-
ware and software monitors integral and hard wired
external switch inputs as well as those resources it
shares with other electronic modules in the vehicle
through its communication over the PCI data bus
network. The internal programming and all of these
inputs allow the DDM or PDM microprocessor to
determine the tasks it needs to perform and their
priorities, as well as both the standard and optional
features that it should provide.
The DDM and PDM are powered by a fused bat-
tery circuit so that they can operate regardless of the
ignition switch position. The DDM and PDM cir-
cuitry is grounded to the chassis beneath the front
seat.

DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
The hard wired inputs to and outputs from the
Driver Door Module (DDM) or the Passenger Door
Module (PDM) may be diagnosed and tested using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. It is
suggested that the proper operation of the inopera-
tive power window motor, power door lock motor,
power liftgate lock motor, power mirror motors, or
heated mirror grid be confirmed using jumper wires
to bypass the door module. If the inoperative compo-
nent operates when the door module is bypassed,
check the circuits between the component and the
door module, as well as the fused B(+) and ground
circuits of the door module for shorts or opens.
These conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the DDM or the
PDM. In order to obtain conclusive testing of these
modules, the Programmable Communications Inter-
face (PCI) data bus network and all of the modules
that provide inputs to or receive outputs from the
door modules must also be checked. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
DDM, the PDM, the PCI data bus network, and the
modules that provide inputs to or receive outputs
from the door modules requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic information.

MEMORY HEATED SEAT/
MIRROR MODULE
DESCRIPTION
There are two different modules that can be used
in the optional heated seat system. The Heated Seat
Module (HSM) is used on vehicles that are not
equipped with the optional Memory System. The
Memory Heated Seat Module (MHSM) is used on
vehicles that are equipped with the optional Memory
System and the optional heated seat system.Refer to
Memory Systemin Power Seat Systems for more
information on the memory system option.
The module is mounted on a bracket that is located
between the power seat track and the seat cushion
frame (Fig. 9). The HSM or MHSM is used to control
the heated seat system functions for both front seats.
The HSM or MHSM contains a central processing
unit that communicates with other modules on the

For diagnosis of the HSM, MHSM or the PCI data
bus, a DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic
Procedures manual are recommended. The HSM or
MHSM cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged,
it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The MSM receives hard wired inputs from the
power seat switch and the potentiometers on each of
the driver side power seat motors. The MSM receives
messages over the PCI data bus from the Driver
Door Module (DDM) (memory switch status), the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (vehicle speed sta-
tus), and the Body Control Module (seat belt switch
status).The MSM will prevent the seat memory recall
function from being initiated if the driver side seat
belt is buckled, if the transmission gear selector lever
is not in the Park or Neutral positions, or if the vehi-
cle is moving.

DESCRIPTION - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
An electrically heated rear window defogger is
standard factory-installed equipment on this model.
Electrically heated outside rear view mirrors are
available factory-installed optional equipment. When
the rear window defogger system is turned on, elec-
tric heater grids on the liftgate flip-up glass and
behind both outside rear view mirror glasses are
energized. These electric heater grids produce heat to
help clear the rear window glass and the outside rear
view mirrors of ice, snow, or fog. The rear window
defogger system control circuit uses ignition switched
battery current, so the system will only operate when
the ignition switch is in the On position.
This group covers the following components of the
rear window defogger system:
²Rear glass heating grid
²Rear window defogger relay²Rear window defogger switch.
Certain functions and features of the rear window
defogger system rely upon resources shared with
other electronic modules in the vehicle over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
network. The PCI data bus network allows the shar-
ing of sensor information. This helps to reduce wire
harness complexity, internal controller hardware, and
component sensor current loads. At the same time,
this system provides increased reliability, enhanced
diagnostics, and allows the addition of many new fea-
ture capabilities. For diagnosis of these electronic
modules or of the PCI data bus network, use a
DRBIIItscan tool and (Refer to Appropriate Diagnos-
tic Information).
The other electronic modules that may affect
proper system operation are:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- Refer to Elec-
tronic Control Modules for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)- Refer to Elec-
tronic Control Modules for more information.
WJHEATED SYSTEMS 8G - 1

(1) Confirm that the ignition switch is in the On
position.
(2) Ensure that the rear glass heating grid feed
and ground terminals are connected to the glass.
Confirm that the ground wire has continuity to
ground.
(3) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC). The fuse must be tight in its
receptacles and all electrical connections must be
secure.
When the above steps have been completed and the
rear glass heating grid is still inoperative, one or
more of the following is faulty:
²Rear window defogger switch
²Rear window defogger relay
²Body Control Module (BCM)
²Rear window grid lines (all grid lines would
have to be broken or one of the feed wires discon-
nected for the entire system to be inoperative).
When the above steps have been completed and the
heated mirror glass heating grid is still inoperative,
one or more of the following is faulty:
²Body Control Module (BCM)
²Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus
²Driver Door Module (DDM) or Passenger Door
Module (PDM)
²Outside rear view mirror heating grids.
If turning the rear window defogger system on pro-
duces a severe voltmeter deflection, check for a short
circuit between the rear window defogger relay out-
put and the rear glass heating grid.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
GRID
DESCRIPTION
The electrically heated rear window glass is stan-
dard equipment on this model. The liftgate flip-up
glass has two electrically conductive vertical bus bars
and a series of horizontal grid lines made of a silver-
ceramic material, which is baked on and bonded to
the inside surface of the glass. These grid lines and
the bus bars comprise a parallel electrical circuit. A
spade type terminal near the top of each bus bar
accept the connectors from the two coiled liftgate
wire harness take outs.
The grid lines and bus bars are highly resistant to
abrasion. However, it is possible for an open circuit
to occur in an individual grid line, resulting in no
current flow through the line. The grid lines can be
damaged or scraped off with sharp instruments. Care
should be taken when cleaning the glass or removing
foreign materials, decals, or stickers from the glass.Normal glass cleaning solvents or hot water used
with rags or toweling is recommended.
A repair kit is available to repair the grid lines and
bus bars, or to reinstall the heated glass terminals.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED GLASS/REAR
WINDOW DEFOGGER GRID - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE)
OPERATION
The rear glass heating grid is energized and de-en-
ergized by the rear window defogger relay. The Body
Control Module (BCM) monitors the rear window
defogger switch. When the BCM receives an input
from the switch, it energizes or de-energizes the rear
window defogger relay through a hard wired control
output. The rear defogger relay switches fused bat-
tery current to the rear window grid lines through
the bus bars. The grid lines heat the rear window
glass to clear the surface of ice, snow or fog. Protec-
tion for the rear glass heating grid circuit is provided
by a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WINDOW
DEFOGGER GRID
For complete circuit diagrams, (Refer to Appropri-
ate Wiring Information). To detect breaks in the rear
glass heating grid lines, the following procedure is
required:
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Turn the rear window defogger system on. The rear
window defogger switch LED indicator should light.
If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/HEATED GLASS/REAR WINDOW DEFOG-
GER RELAY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
(2) Using a 12-volt DC voltmeter, contact the rear
glass heating grid vertical bus bar on the right side
of the vehicle with the negative lead. With the posi-
tive lead, contact the rear glass heating grid vertical
bus bar on the left side of the vehicle. The voltmeter
should read battery voltage. If OK, go to Step 3. If
not OK, repair the open rear window defogger relay
output circuit to the rear window defogger relay as
required.
(3) With the positive voltmeter lead still contacting
the rear glass heating grid vertical bus bar on the
left side of the vehicle, move the negative lead of the
voltmeter to a good body ground point. The voltage
reading should not change. If OK, go to Step 4. If not
OK, repair the ground circuit to ground as required.
(4) Connect the negative lead of the voltmeter to
the right side bus bar and touch each grid line at
midpoint C with the positive lead (Fig. 2). A reading
of approximately six volts indicates a line is good. A
reading of zero volts indicates a break in the grid
line between midpoint C and the left side rear glass
heating grid bus bar. A reading of ten to fourteen

HEATED MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
Electrically heated outside rear view mirrors are
optional equipment on this model. These mirrors fea-
ture an electric heating grid located behind the mir-
ror glass of each power operated outside rear view
mirror. These heating grids consist of a single resis-
tor wire routed in a grid-like pattern and captured
between two thin sheets of plastic. When electrical
current is passed through the resistor wire, it pro-
duces enough heat energy to clear the outside mirror
glass of ice, snow or fog. Battery current is directed
to the outside mirror heating grid only when the rear
window defogger switch is in the On position.
If the outside mirror heating grids and the rear
window heating grid are all inoperative, (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/HEATED GLASS - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM).
If the outside mirror heating grids are inoperative,
but the rear window heating grid is operating as
designed, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED MIR-
RORS - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
The heating grid behind each outside mirror glass
cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
entire power mirror unit must be replaced. Refer to
Power Mirrors for the procedures.
OPERATION
The outside mirror heating grids are energized and
de-energized by the Driver Door Module (DDM) and
the Passenger Door Module (PDM) based upon the
rear window defogger switch status. The Body Con-
trol Module (BCM) monitors the rear window defog-ger switch. When the BCM receives an input from
the switch, it sends a defogger switch status message
to the DDM and the PDM over the Programmable
Communications Interface data bus. The DDM and
PDM respond to the defogger switch status messages
by energizing or de-energizing the battery current
feed to their respective outside rear view mirror
heating grids.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED MIRRORS
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, (Refer to
Appropriate Wiring Information).
(1) If both mirror heaters are inoperative, check
for proper operation of the Rear Window Defogger
System. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/HEATED GLASS
- DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WINDOW
DEFOGGER SYSTEM). If Rear Window Defogger
System operates correctly, or if only one mirror
heater is inoperative, go to Step 2.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Remove the front door trim panel on the side
of the inoperative mirror heater. Go to Step 3.
(3) Disconnect the door wire harness connector
from the door module connector receptacle. Check for
continuity between the mirror heater 12 volt supply,
and the mirror heater ground. There should be con-
tinuity. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, check for con-
tinuity of the individual circuits between the power
mirror and the door module, and of the mirror heater
grid right at the power mirror.
(4) Use a DRB IIItand (Refer to Appropriate
Diagnostic Information) to test the door module and
the PCI data bus.

HEADLAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp switch is part of the left multi-func-
tion switch. A knob on the end of the multi-function
switch control stalk controls all of the exterior light-
ing switch functions. The exterior lighting switch is
hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM).
The exterior lighting switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the entire left
multi-function switch unit must be replaced. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERI-
OR/TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD SWITCH - REMOVAL)
for the service procedures. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/BODY
CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL - DESCRIP-
TION) for more information on this component.
OPERATION
The exterior lighting switch uses a hard wired five
volt reference circuit from the BCM, resistor multi-
plexing and a hard wired switch output circuit to
provide the BCM with a zero to five volt signal thatindicates the status of all of the exterior lighting
switch settings. The BCM then uses control outputs
to energize the headlamp and park lamp relays that
activate the exterior lighting circuits.
The BCM monitors the exterior lighting switch sta-
tus, then sends the proper switch status messages to
other modules over the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The exterior
lighting switch status is also used by the BCM as an
input for chime warning system operation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Ð HEADLAMP
SWITCH
Before testing the headlamp switch, turn on the
exterior lighting and open the driver side front door.
If the exterior lamps of the vehicle operate, but there
is no chime warning issued with the driver side front
door open, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - INTERIOR/DOOR AJAR SWITCH -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the exterior lamps
of the vehicle are inoperative, but the chime warning
is issued, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHT-
ING - EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
If the exterior lamps and the chime warning are
both inoperative, test the left multi-function switch.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING -
EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the
multi-function switch tests OK, proceed as follows.
The following tests will help to locate a short or open
in the hard wired circuits between the multi-function
switch and the Body Control Module (BCM). For
complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate
wiring information.
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, REFER TO ELECTRICAL, RESTRAINTS
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL,
STEERING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL
COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE
TO TAKE THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD
RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness
connector from the left multi-function switch connec-
tor. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness
connector from the Body Control Module (BCM).
Check for continuity between the headlamp switch
mux circuit of the instrument panel wire harness
connector for the multi-function switch and a good
ground. There should be no continuity. If OK, go to
Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted headlamp
switch mux circuit.
(2) Check for continuity between the headlamp
switch mux circuit of the instrument panel wire har-
