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.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR (Continued)

The ACM microprocessor continuously monitors all
of the supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits to determine the system readiness. If the ACM
detects a monitored system fault, it sets an active
and stored Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and sends
electronic messages to the EMIC over the PCI data
bus to turn on the airbag indicator. An active fault
only remains for the duration of the fault or in some
cases the duration of the current ignition switch
cycle, while a stored fault causes a DTC to be stored
in memory by the ACM. For some DTCs, if a fault
does not recur for a number of ignition cycles, the
ACM will automatically erase the stored DTC. For
other internal faults, the stored DTC is latched for-
ever.
The ACM receives battery current through two cir-
cuits, on a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit
through a fuse in the Junction Block (JB), and on a
fused ignition switch output (start-run) circuit
through a second fuse in the JB. The ACM is
grounded through a ground circuit and take out of
the instrument panel floor wire harness. This take
out has a single eyelet terminal connector secured by
a nut to a ground stud located behind the ACM
mount on the floor panel transmission tunnel. These
connections allow the ACM to be operational when-
ever the ignition switch is in the Start or On posi-
tions. The ACM also contains an energy-storage
capacitor. When the ignition switch is in the Start or
On positions, this capacitor is continually being
charged with enough electrical energy to deploy the
airbags for up to one second following a battery dis-
connect or failure. The purpose of the capacitor is to
provide backup supplemental restraint system pro-
tection in case there is a loss of battery current sup-
ply to the ACM during an impact.
Two sensors are contained within the ACM, an
electronic impact sensor and a safing sensor. The
ACM also monitors inputs from two remote front
impact sensors located on brackets on the inboard
sides of the right and left vertical members of the
radiator support near the front of the vehicle. The
electronic impact sensors are accelerometers that
sense the rate of vehicle deceleration, which provide
verification of the direction and severity of an
impact. On models equipped with optional side cur-
tain airbags, the ACM also monitors inputs from two
remote side impact sensors located near the base of
both the left and right inner B-pillars to control the
deployment of the side curtain airbag units.
The safing sensor is an electronic accelerometer
sensor within the ACM that provides an additional
logic input to the ACM microprocessor. The safingsensor is used to verify the need for an airbag
deployment by detecting impact energy of a lesser
magnitude than that of the primary electronic impact
sensors, and must exceed a safing threshold in order
for the airbags to deploy. The ACM also monitors a
Hall effect-type seat belt switch located in the buckle
of each front seat belt to determine whether the seat-
belts are buckled, and provides an input to the EMIC
over the PCI data bus to control the seatbelt indica-
tor operation based upon the status of the driver side
front seat belt switch. Vehicles with the optional side
curtain airbags feature a second safing sensor within
the ACM to provide confirmation to the ACM of side
impact forces. This second safing sensor is a bi-direc-
tional unit that detects impact forces from either side
of the vehicle.
Pre-programmed decision algorithms in the ACM
microprocessor determine when the deceleration rate
as signaled by the impact sensors and the safing sen-
sors indicate an impact that is severe enough to
require supplemental restraint system protection.
The ACM also determines the level of front airbag
deployment force required for each front seating posi-
tion based upon the status of the two seat belt switch
inputs and the severity of the monitored impact.
When the programmed conditions are met, the ACM
sends the proper electrical signals to deploy the mul-
tistage dual front airbags at the programmed force
levels, and to deploy either side curtain airbag.
The hard wired inputs and outputs for the ACM
may be diagnosed and tested using conventional
diagnostic tools and procedures. However, conven-
tional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in
the diagnosis of the ACM, the PCI data bus network,
or the electronic message inputs to and outputs from
the ACM. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the ACM, the PCI data bus net-
work, and the electronic message inputs to and out-
puts from the ACM requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.
REMOVAL
Two different Airbag Control Modules (ACM) are
available for this vehicle. For vehicles equipped with
the optional side curtain airbags, both ACM connec-
tor receptacles are black in color and the ACM con-
tains a second bi-directional safing sensor for the
side airbags. For vehicles not equipped with the
optional side curtain airbags, the ACM connector
receptacles are gray.

SKIS INDICATOR FAILS TO LIGHT DURING BULB TEST
If the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indi-
cator in the instrument cluster fails to illuminate for
about three seconds after the ignition switch is
turned to the On position (bulb test), perform the
instrument cluster actuator test. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING - ACTUATOR TEST). If the bulb
fails to operate during the actuator test, replace the
bulb. If the SKIS indicator still fails to light during
the bulb test, a wiring problem resulting in the loss
of battery current or ground to the Sentry Key Immo-
bilizer Module (SKIM) should be suspected, and thefollowing procedure should be used for diagnosis.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
NOTE: The following tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
Sentry Key Immobilizer System requires the use of
a DRBIIITscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diag-
nostic information.

SKIS INDICATOR FLASHES OR LIGHTS SOLID FOLLOWING
BULB TEST
A SKIS indicator that flashes following a successful
bulb test indicates that an invalid key has been
detected, or that a key-related fault has been set. A
SKIS indicator that lights solid following a successful
bulb test indicates that the SKIM has detected a sys-
tem malfunction or that the SKIS is inoperative. In
either case, fault information will be stored in the
SKIM memory. For retrieval of this fault information
and further diagnosis of the SKIS, the PCI data bus,
the SKIM message outputs to the instrument cluster,
the SKIM message outputs to the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM), or the message inputs and outputs
between the SKIM and the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM), a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate
diagnostic information are required. Following are
preliminary troubleshooting guidelines to be followed
during diagnosis using a DRBIIItscan tool:(1) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, read and record
the faults as they exist in the SKIM when you first
begin your diagnosis of the vehicle. It is important to
document these faults because the SKIM does not
differentiate between historical and active faults. If
this problem turns out to be an intermittent condi-
tion, this information may become invaluable to your
diagnosis.
(2) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, erase all of the
faults from the SKIM.
(3) Cycle the ignition switch to the Off position,
then back to the On position.
(4) Using the DRBIIItscan tool, read any faults
that are now present in the SKIM. These are the
active faults.
(5) Using this active fault information, refer to the
proper procedure in the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation for the additional specific diagnostic steps.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - SKIS
INITIALIZATION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) must
be initialized following a Sentry Key Immobilizer
Module (SKIM) replacement. SKIS initialization
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Initialization
will also require that you have access to the unique
four-digit PIN code that was assigned to the original
SKIM. The PIN codemustbe used to enter the
Secured Access Mode in the SKIM. This PIN number
may be obtained from the vehicle owner, from the
original vehicle invoice, or from the DaimlerChrysler
Customer Center. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELEC-
TRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PRO-
CEDURE - PCM/SKIM PROGRAMMING).
NOTE: If a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is
replaced on a vehicle equipped with the Sentry Key
Immobilizer System (SKIS), the unique Secret Key
data must be transferred from the Sentry Key
Immobilizer Module (SKIM) to the new PCM using
the PCM replacement procedure. This procedure
also requires the use of a DRBIIITscan tool and the
unique four-digit PIN code to enter the Secured
Access Mode in the SKIM. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information for the proper PCM replace-
ment procedures.

SKIS INDICATOR LAMP
DESCRIPTION
A Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indicator
lamp is standard equipment on all instrument clus-
ters, but is only functional on vehicles equipped with
the optional SKIS. The amber SKIS indicator lamp is
located to the right of the oil pressure gauge.
OPERATION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) indica-
tor lamp gives an indication to the vehicle operator of
the status of the SKIS. This lamp is controlled by a
transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board
based upon messages received by the cluster from
the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) over the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus. The SKIS indicator lamp bulb receives battery
current on the instrument cluster circuit board
through the fused ignition switch output (st-run) cir-
cuit whenever the ignition switch is in the On or
Start positions. The lamp bulb only illuminates when
it is provided a path to ground by the instrument
cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will turn
on the SKIS indicator lamp for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position, the SKIM tells the cluster
to illuminate the lamp for about three seconds.
²SKIS Lamp-On Message- Each time the clus-
ter receives a SKIS lamp-on message from the SKIM,
the lamp will be illuminated. The lamp can be
flashed on and off, or illuminated solid, as dictated
by the message from the SKIM. For more informa-
tion on the SKIS and the SKIS lamp control param-
eters, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE THEFT
SECURITY - OPERATION - SENTRY KEY IMMO-
BILIZER SYSTEM). The lamp remains illuminated
until the cluster receives a lamp-off message from
the SKIM or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the lamp will be turned on
for the duration of the test to confirm the functional-
ity of the lamp and the cluster.
The SKIM performs a self-test each time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the On position to decide
whether the system is in good operating condition.
The SKIM then sends a message to the instrument
cluster. If the SKIS indicator lamp fails to light dur-
ing the bulb test, replace the bulb. For further diag-
nosis of the SKIS indicator lamp or the instrument

OPERATION
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) indica-
tor gives a visible indication of the VTSS arming sta-
tus. One side of Light-Emittiong Diode (LED) in the
VTSS indicator is connected to unswitched battery
current through a fused B(+) circuit and a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB). The other side of the LED is
hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM), which
controls the operation of the VTSS indicator by pull-
ing this side of the LED circuit to ground. When the
VTSS arming is in progress, the BCM will flash the
LED rapidly on and off for about fifteen seconds.
When the VTSS has been successfully armed, the
BCM will flash the LED on and off continually at a
much slower rate until the VTSS has been disarmed.
The VTSS indicator can be diagnosed using conven-
tional diagnostic tools and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - VTSS INDICATOR
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) indicator con-
dition. If the problem being diagnosed is related to
indicator accuracy, be certain to confirm that the
problem is with the indicator and not with an inop-
erative VTSS. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING -
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If no VTSS
problem is found, the following procedure will help to
locate a short or open in the VTSS indicator control
circuit. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
