DESCRIPTION - TURN SIGNAL & HAZARD
WARNING SYSTEM
The turn signal and hazard warning system
includes the following major components, which are
described in further detail elsewhere in this service
information:
²Combination Flasher
²Front Side Marker Lamps
²Hazard Warning Switch
²Turn Signal Cancel Cam
²Turn Signal Indicators
²Turn Signal Lamps
²Turn Signal Switch
The turn signal and hazard warning systems also
provide the following features:
²Flash Lights with Lock- This customer pro-
grammable feature flashes the hazard warning lamps
to provide optical verification that the Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) System has received a valid Lock or
Unlock request from an RKE transmitter. (Refer to 8
- ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS - DESCRIPTION -
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM).
²Panic Mode Optical Alert- This feature
flashes the hazard warning lamps to provide an opti-
cal alert when the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Sys-
tem panic mode is activated by depressing the Panic
button on an RKE transmitter. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/POWER LOCKS - DESCRIPTION -
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM).
²Turn Signal On Warning- This feature pro-
vides the vehicle operator with both visual and audi-
ble reminders when a turn signal has been left
turned on for an extended period. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-TRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC
VEHICLE INFO CENTER - DESCRIPTION).
²Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) Opti-
cal Alarm- This feature flashes the hazard warning
lamps to provide an optical alarm when the VTSS is
armed and activated by an unauthorized entry into
the vehicle. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY - DESCRIPTION - VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM).
OPERATION - TURN SIGNAL & HAZARD
WARNING SYSTEM
The turn signal system operates on battery current
received on a fused ignition switch output (run) cir-
cuit so that the turn signals will only operate with
the ignition switch in the On position. The hazard
warning system operates on non-switched battery
current received on a fused B(+) circuit so that the
hazard warning remains operational regardless of
the ignition switch position. When the turn signal
system is activated, the circuitry of the turn signal
switch and the combination flasher will cause the
selected (right or left) turn signal indicator, front
park/turn signal lamp, front side marker lamp and
rear tail/stop/turn signal lamp to flash on and off.
When the hazard warning system is activated, the
circuitry of the hazard warning switch and the com-
bination flasher will cause both the right side and
the left side turn signal indicators, front park/turn
signal lamps, front side marker lamps and rear tail/
stop/turn signal lamps to flash on and off.
The Body Control Module (BCM) can also activate
the hazard warning system lamps by energizing the
combination flasher through a single hard wired con-
nection to the hazard warning switch sense circuit.
The BCM grounds the circuit to energize and de-en-
8L - 2 LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIORWJ

ergize the combination flasher in response to mes-
sage inputs received over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The BCM can energize the combination flasher when
the VTSS is requested.
Vehicles equipped with the optional Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) use turn signal
status messages received from the Electro-Mechani-
cal Instrument Cluster (EMIC) and distance mes-
sages received from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) over the PCI data bus to determine when the
Turn Signal On warning should be activated. The
EMIC receives hard wired inputs from the combina-
tion flasher to operate the turn signal indicators,
then sends the proper turn signal status message to
the EVIC. If a turn signal is left on for more than
about 1.6 kilometers (1 mile) of driving distance, the
EVIC will display a visual ªTurn Signal Onº message
and will send a request to the BCM over the PCI
data bus to notify the vehicle operator.
During both the turn signal and the hazard warn-
ing operation, if the exterior lamps are turned Off,
the front park/turn signal lamps and the front side
marker lamps will flash in unison. If the exterior
lamps are turned On, the front park/turn signal
lamps and the front side marker lamps will flash
alternately. Refer to the owner's manual.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN SIGNAL &
HAZARD WARNING SYSTEMS
When diagnosing the turn signal and hazard warn-
ing circuits, remember that high generator output
can burn out bulbs rapidly and repeatedly. If this is a
concern on the vehicle being diagnosed, test the
charging system as required.

COMBINATION FLASHER
DESCRIPTION
The combination flasher is located in the Junction
Block (JB) (Fig. 6). The JB is located underneath the
driver side of the instrument panel outboard of the
steering column. The combination flasher is a smart
relay that functions as both the turn signal system
and the hazard warning system flasher. The combi-
nation flasher contains active electronic Integrated
Circuitry (IC) elements. This flasher is designed to
handle the current flow requirements of the factory-
installed lighting. If supplemental lighting is added
to the turn signal lamp circuits, such as when towing
a trailer with lights, the combination flasher will
automatically try to compensate to keep the flash
rate the same.The combination flasher has nine blade-type termi-
nals that connect it to the vehicle electrical system.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
Because of the active electronic elements within
the combination flasher, it cannot be tested with con-
ventional automotive electrical test equipment. If the
combination flasher is believed to be faulty, test the
turn signal system and hazard warning system cir-
cuits.(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING
- EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN
SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM). The com-
bination flasher cannot be repaired or adjusted and,
if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The combination flasher controls the following
inputs and outputs: B(+), fused ignition switch out-
put, left turn switch sense, right turn switch sense,
hazard switch sense, left front turn signal circuit,
right front turn signal circuit, left rear turn signal
circuit and right rear turn signal circuit. Constant
battery voltage is supplied to the flasher so that it
can perform the hazard warning function, and igni-
tion switched battery voltage is supplied for the turn
signal function. However, when the flasher is idle no
current is drawn through the module. The unit does
not become active until it is provided a signal ground
from the turn signal switch, hazard warning switch
or the Body Control Module (BCM).
The IC within the combination flasher (Fig. 7) con-
tains the logic that controls the flasher operation and
the flash rate. When a bulb is burnt out, or when a
circuit for a lamp is open, the turn signal flash rate
will increase. However, an open lamp circuit or burnt
out bulb does not change the hazard warning flash
rate.

OPERATION
The EVIC has access to both non-switched and
ignition switched sources of battery current so that
some of its features remain operational at any time,
while others may only operate with the ignition
switch in the On position. When the ignition switch
is turned to the On position, the EVIC module VFD
will return to the last function being displayed before
the ignition was turned to the Off position.
The compass/temperature display is the normal
EVIC display. With the ignition switch in the On
position, momentarily depressing and releasing the
C/T (compass/temperature) push button switch will
cause the EVIC to return to the compass/tempera-
ture/trip computer display mode from any other
mode. While in the compass/temperature/trip com-
puter display mode, momentarily depressing and
releasing the Step push button will step through the
available trip computer display options.
The EVIC trip computer features several functions
that can be reset. The functions that can be reset
are: average fuel economy, trip odometer and elapsed
time. With the ignition switch in the On position and
with one of the functions of the trip computer that
can be reset currently displayed, depressing the
Reset push button twice within three seconds will
perform a global reset, and all of the trip computer
information that can be reset will be reset to zero.
With the ignition switch in the On position and the
function that is to be reset currently displayed,
momentarily depressing and releasing the Reset
push button once will perform a local reset, and only
the value of the displayed function will be reset to
zero. A global or local reset will only occur if the
function currently displayed is a function that can be
reset. The distance to service function can also be
reset using the local reset method, but it will reset
back to the Service Interval distance that is set in
the EVIC programmable features mode. Refer to
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION CEN-
TER PROGRAMMINGin the Service Procedures
section of this group for more information on setting
the Service Interval.
For more information on the features, control func-
tions and setting procedures for the EVIC module,
see the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box.

DESCRIPTION - POWER LOCK SYSTEM
A power operated door and liftgate lock system is
standard factory-installed equipment on this model.
The power lock system allows all of the doors and the
liftgate to be locked or unlocked electrically by oper-
ating a switch on either front door trim panel. The
power lock system receives non-switched battery feedthrough a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC), so that the power locks remain operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
The power lock system for this vehicle also has a
door lock inhibit feature, which prevents the power
lock system from being energized with a power door
lock switch if a front door is open with the key in the
ignition. However, the locks can still be operated
manually, with a key, energized with the RKE trans-
mitter or by sliding the door lock lever to the appro-
priate position.
WJPOWER SYSTEMS 8N - 1

This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER -
DESCRIPTION). Customer programmable feature
options affecting the power door lock system include:
²Auto Door Locks- Automatically locks all of
the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the vehicle
reaches a speed of about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15
miles-per-hour) with 10% throttle tip-in.
²Auto Unlock on Exit- Automatically unlocks
all of the vehicle doors and the liftgate when the
driver side front door is opened, if the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission gear selector is in the
Park or Neutral positions. This feature is linked to
the Auto Door Locks feature, and will only occur one
time following each Auto Door Lock event.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the standard equipment
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system radio frequency
transmitters. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS - DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY SYSTEM).
The components of the power lock system include:
²Driver Door Module (DDM)
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)
²PCI Bus Messages
²Power Lock Motors
Certain functions and features of the power lock
system rely upon resources shared with other elec-
tronic modules in the vehicle over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sen-
sor information. This helps to reduce wire harness
complexity, internal controller hardware, and compo-
nent sensor current loads. At the same time, this sys-
tem provides increased reliability, enhanced
diagnostics, and allows the addition of many new fea-
ture capabilities. For proper diagnosis of these elec-
tronic modules or of the PCI data bus network, the
use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diag-
nostic information are required.
The other electronic modules that may affect power
lock system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MOD-
ULE - DESCRIPTION).
²Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)- (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD
CONSOLE/ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFO CENTER
- DESCRIPTION).
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)- (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROLMODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE -
DESCRIPTION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the power lock sys-
tem components to the electrical system of the vehi-
cle. These hard wired circuits are integral to several
wire harnesses, which are routed throughout the
vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the power lock sys-
tem components through the use of a combination of
soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many
different types of wire harness terminal connectors
and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
further details on wire harness routing and reten-
tion, as well as pin-out and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The RKE system allows
the use of a remote battery-powered radio transmit-
ter to control the power lock system. The RKE
receiver operates on non-switched battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC), so that the system remains operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
In addition to Lock and Unlock buttons, the RKE
transmitters are also equipped with a Panic button.
If the Panic button on the RKE transmitter is
depressed, the horn will sound and the exterior lights
will flash on the vehicle for about three minutes, or
until the Panic button is depressed a second time, if
ignition is in the Off position. A vehicle speed of
about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will
also cancel the panic event.
The RKE system can also perform other functions
on this vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS), the
RKE transmitter will arm the VTSS when the Lock
button is depressed, and disarm the VTSS when the
Unlock button is depressed. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY - DESCRIPTION
- VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If the
vehicle is equipped with the optional Memory Sys-
tem, each of the two numbered and color-coded RKE
transmitters can be used to recall the stored driver
side front seat position, both outside power rear view
mirror positions, and the radio station presets for the
two assigned drivers. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYS-
TEM).

the engine compartment. This relay can be energized
by the BCM to sound the horns as an audible alert
for the RKE panic function and, if the Sound Horn
on Lock programmable feature is enabled, as an
audible verification for the RKE lock event. (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/HORN/HORN RELAY - DESCRIP-
TION).
LOW BEAM HEADLAMP RELAY
The low beam headlamp relay is a electromechan-
ical device that switches battery current to the head-
lamp low beams when the BCM grounds the relay
coil. The low beam headlamp relay is located in the
junction block in the passenger compartment. This
relay can be energized by the BCM to flash the head-
lamp low beams as an optical alert for the RKE panic
function. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHT-
ING - EXTERIOR/HEADLAMP - DESCRIPTION).
DESCRIPTION - LIFTGATE FLIP-UP GLASS
POWER RELEASE SYSTEM
A power operated liftgate flip-up glass release sys-
tem is standard factory installed equipment on this
model. The liftgate flip-up glass power release system
allows the flip-up glass latch to be released electri-
cally by depressing a switch located on the bottom of
the liftgate license plate lamp housing unit, above
the license plate on the outside of the liftgate.
The liftgate flip-up glass release system operates
on non-switched battery current supplied through a
fuse in the junction block so that the system remains
functional, regardless of the ignition switch position.
However, a limit switch that is integral to the liftgate
latch actuator unit opens to prevent the flip-up glass
latch from being actuated when the liftgate latch is
locked.
The liftgate flip-up glass power release system
includes the following components:
²Liftgate Flip-Up Glass Limit Switch- The
liftgate flip-up glass limit switch is integral to the
liftgate latch unit. (Refer to 23 - BODY/DECKLID/
HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAILGATE/LATCH - REMOVAL)
and (Refer to 23 - BODY/DECKLID/HATCH/LIFT-
GATE/TAILGATE/LATCH - INSTALLATION).
²Liftgate Flip-Up Glass Release Motor- The
liftgate flip-up glass release motor is integral to the
liftgate flip-up glass latch unit. (Refer to 23 - BODY/
DECKLID/HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAILGATE/FLIP-UP
GLASS LATCH - REMOVAL) and (Refer to 23 -
BODY/DECKLID/HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAILGATE/
FLIP-UP GLASS LATCH - INSTALLATION).
²Liftgate Flip-Up Glass Release Switch- The
liftgate flip-up glass release switch is integral to the
liftgate license plate lamp housing. (Refer to 23 -
BODY/DECKLID/HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAILGATE/
FLIP-UP GLASS SWITCH - REMOVAL) and (Referto 23 - BODY/DECKLID/HATCH/LIFTGATE/TAIL-
GATE/FLIP-UP GLASS SWITCH - INSTALLATION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the liftgate flip-up
glass power release system components to the electri-
cal system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits
are integral to several wire harnesses, which are
routed throughout the vehicle and retained by many
different methods. These circuits may be connected to
each other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
liftgate flip-up glass power release system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.OPERATION
OPERATION - POWER LOCK SYSTEM
The Passenger Door Module (PDM) contains the
power door lock control logic and a power lock switch.
The Driver Door Module (DDM) contains a power
lock switch and controls the output to the driver side
front door power lock motor, while the PDM controls
the output to the power lock motors for the remain-
ing doors and the liftgate.
When the power lock switch on the DDM is used to
lock or unlock the doors, the DDM sends a control
output to the driver side front door power lock motor
and sends lock or unlock request messages to the
PDM over the Programmable Communications Inter-
face (PCI) data bus. The PDM responds to these mes-
sages by sending control outputs to the power lock
motors of the remaining doors and the liftgate. When
the power lock switch on the PDM is used to lock or
unlock the doors, the PDM sends control outputs to
the power lock motors in the passenger side front
door, both rear doors and the liftgate, then sends lock
or unlock request messages to the DDM over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus. The DDM responds to these messages by send-
ing control outputs to the power lock motor of the
driver side front door.
In order to support the auto door locks and unlock
on exit features, if enabled, the power lock system
logic in the PDM needs to know the door ajar switch
status, vehicle speed, and transmission gear selector
lever position. The passenger side front door ajar
switch is the only hard wired input to the PDM. The
PDM obtains the remaining information from mes-
sages it receives from other electronic modules over
the PCI data bus network.
