ANTENNA MODULE - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
The antenna module (Fig. 7) is an electromagnetic
circuit component designed to capture and enhance
RF (Radio Frequency) signals in both the AM and
FM broadcast bands. The antenna module is
mounted to the right rear roof rail under the head-
liner. The modules mounting brackets also double as
the ground circuit. The module has a two wire elec-
trical connector that connects to the electric backlite
integral radio antenna, located on the right rear
quarter glass, a connector for the radio coax cable
and a connector for battery voltage.

OPERATION
The antenna module receives both AM and FM
radio signals supplied by the side window integral
radio antenna system and selectively amplifies them
while at the same time avoiding unusable or
unwanted signals. The amplified signal is then sent
through the body length coax cable to the radio
input.

CD CHANGER
DESCRIPTION
A factory-installed Compact Disc (CD) changer fea-
turing a ten-CD magazine is an available option on
this model when it is also equipped with the pre-
mium speaker package and a radio receiver including
the CD controls feature. The CD changer is mounted
in the cargo area of the passenger compartment on
the right rear quarter panel.
The CD changer is connected to a take out from
the right body wire harness and receives both ground
and radio-switched battery current through the radio
receiver. The controls on the radio receiver operate
the CD changer through messages sent over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
network. The two-channel audio outputs of the CD
changer are hard wired back to the radio receiver,
which then outputs the signal through four channels
to the power amplifier. For diagnosis of the messag-
ing functions of the radio receiver and the CD
changer, or of the PCI data bus, a DRB scan tool and
the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual are
required.

The CD changer can only be serviced by an autho-
rized radio repair station. See the latest Warranty
Policies and Procedures manual for a current listing
of authorized radio repair stations.
OPERATION
The CD changer will only operate when the igni-
tion switch is in the On or Accessory positions, and
the radio is turned on. For more information on the
features, loading procedures and radio control func-
tions for the operation of the CD changer, see the
owner's manual in the vehicle glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CD CHANGER
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the Compact
Disc (CD) changer unit. However, these tests may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of this unit. In
order to obtain conclusive testing of the CD changer
unit, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network, the CD changer unit, the
radio receiver unit and any other electronic modules
that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the
audio system must be checked.
Any diagnosis of the Audio system should
begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiagnostic
tool. For information on the use of the DRB
IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Service
Manual.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire
harness routing and retention, connector pin-out
information and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.

QUARTER GLASS INTEGRAL
ANTENNA - EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
The integral radio antenna element is bonded to
the right rear quarter glass and is replaced with the
glass assembly only.
OPERATION
The integral antenna receives RF (Radio Frequen-
cies) and sends them to the antenna module for
amplification.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - QUARTER GLASS
INTEGRAL ANTENNA - EXPORT
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the Appro-
priate Wiring Information. To detect breaks in the
integral antenna elements, the following procedure is
required:
(1) Disconnect the antenna module connector from
the antenna.
(2) Using a Ohmmeter, place both leads onto the
connector pins on the integral antenna. If continuity
is present antenna grid is Okay. If continuity is not
present move one lead through the grid in progres-
sion until continuity is detected. A break in the
antenna grid can be repaired using a Mopar Rear
Window Defogger Repair Kit (Part Number 4267922)
or equivalent. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/WINDOW
DEFOGGER/REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER GRID -
STANDARD PROCEDURE)
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
to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring
information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire
and connector repair procedures, details of wire har-
ness routing and retention, connector pin-out infor-
mation and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - RADIO
Any diagnosis of the Audio system should
begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiagnostic
tool. For information on the use of the DRB
IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Service
Manual.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional remote
radio switches located on the steering wheel and the

vehicle to control RFI or EMI noise include the fol-
lowing:
²Radio antenna base ground
²Radio receiver chassis ground wire or strap
²Engine-to-body ground strap(s)
²Exhaust system-to-body and transmission
ground strap (4.7L engines only)
²Resistor-type spark plugs
