repair the open or short as required.
(3) Remove the cigar lighter knob and element
from the cigar lighter outlet shell. Check for continu-
ity between the inside circumference of the cigar
lighter outlet shell and a good ground. there should
be continuity. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, go to
Step 5.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the insulated contact
located at the back of the cigar lighter outlet shell. If
OK, replace the faulty cigar lighter knob and ele-
ment. If not OK, go to Step 5.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the instrument panel center lower bezel.
Check for continuity between the ground circuit cav-
ity of the cigar lighter wire harness connector and a
good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to
Step 6. If not OK, repair the open ground circuit to
ground as required.
(6) Connect the battery negative cable. Turn the
ignition switch to the Accessory or On positions.
Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit
cavity of the cigar lighter wire harness connector. If
OK, replace the faulty cigar lighter outlet. If not OK,

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.
REMOVAL
WARNING: DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL,
STEERING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL
COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCON-
NECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE
(GROUND) CABLE, THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR
THE AIRBAG SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE
BEFORE PERFORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR
SERVICE. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DIS-
ABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE
THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN
ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSI-
BLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the fuse cover from the bottom of the
Junction Block (JB).
(3) Remove the steering column opening cover
from the instrument panel. Refer toSteering Col-
umn Opening Coverin Body for the location of
steering column opening cover removal procedures.

(4) Reach behind the JB to disconnect the two
instrument panel wire harness connectors from the
Body Control Module (BCM) connector receptacles
located near the bottom of the JB (Fig. 4).
(5) Reach behind the JB to remove the screw that
secures the instrument panel wire harness bulkhead
connector to the connector receptacle located near the
top of the JB and disconnect the connector.
(6) Disconnect the fused B(+) and the IOD wire
harness connectors from the connector receptacles
located near the bottom of the JB (Fig. 5).
(7) Remove the screws that secure the right and
left body wire harness bulkhead connectors to the
connector receptacles located near the center of the
JB and disconnect the connectors.
(8) Remove the two screws that secure the JB to
the instrument panel steering column support
bracket (Fig. 6).
(9) To disengage the two snap clips that secure the
top of the JB to the instrument panel steering col-
umn support bracket, grasp the bottom of the junc-
tion block firmly with both hands and pull it
downward sharply.
(10) Remove the JB from the instrument panel
steering column support bracket.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: If the Junction Block (JB) is being replaced
with a new unit, be certain to transfer each of the
optional fuses, circuit breakers and relays from thefaulty JB to the proper cavities of the replacement
JB. Refer to Junction Block in Wiring Diagrams for
the location of complete circuit diagrams and cavity
assignments for the JB. The Body Control Module
(BCM) must also be transferred to the new JB.
Refer to Body Control Module in Electronic Control
Modules for the location of the BCM removal and
installation procedures.
(1)
Position the JB into its mounting location on the
instrument panel steering column support bracket.
(2) Align the snap clips at the top of the JB with
the mounting holes in the instrument panel steering
column support bracket.
(3) Grasp the bottom of the JB firmly with both
hands and push it upward sharply to engage the two
snap clips that secure the top of the JB to the instru-
ment panel steering column support bracket.
(4)
Install and tighten the two screws that secure the
JB to the instrument panel steering column support
bracket. Tighten the screws to 2.2 N´m (20 in. lbs.).

POWER DISTRIBUTION
CENTER
DESCRIPTION
All of the electrical current distributed throughout
this vehicle is directed through the standard equip-ment Power Distribution Center (PDC) (Fig. 7). The
molded plastic PDC housing is located in the right
front corner of the engine compartment, between the
battery and the right front inner fender shield. The
PDC houses up to fifteen maxi-type cartridge fuses,
which replace all in-line fusible links. The PDC also
houses up to thirteen blade-type mini fuses, and up
to ten International Standards Organization (ISO)
relays (two standard-type and eight micro-type).
The PDC housing is secured in the engine compart-
ment at three points. Integral mounts on both sides of
the PDC housing engage and latch to stanchions that
are integral to the molded plastic battery support. The
PDC is integral to the right headlamp and dash wire
harness, which exits from the bottom of the PDC hous-
ing. The PDC housing has a molded plastic cover that
includes two integral latches at the front and pivot
hooks at the back that snap over a hinge pin on the
rear of the PDC housing. The PDC cover is easily
opened or removed for service access and has a conve-
nient fuse and relay layout map integral to the inside
surface of the cover to ensure proper component identi-
fication. A fuse puller is also stored on the inside of the
PDC cover.
The PDC cover, the PDC housing lower cover, the
PDC relay wedges, the PDC relay cassettes and the
PDC B(+) terminal stud module are available for ser-
vice replacement. The PDC main housing unit, the
fuse wedges and the bus bars cannot be repaired and
