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.

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.

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).
8N - 2 POWER LOCKSWJ
POWER LOCKS (Continued)
Page 500 of 2199

The RKE system includes two transmitters when
the vehicle is shipped from the factory, but the sys-
tem can retain the vehicle access codes of up to four
transmitters. The transmitter codes are retained in
the RKE receiver memory, even if the battery is dis-
connected. If an RKE transmitter is faulty or lost,
new transmitter vehicle access codes can be pro-
grammed into the system using a DRBIIItscan tool
and the appropriate diagnostic information.
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 RKE system include:
²Remote Unlock- Allows the option of having
only the driver side front door unlock when the RKE
transmitter Unlock button is depressed the first time
and the remaining doors and the liftgate unlock
when the button is depressed a second time, or hav-
ing all doors and the liftgate unlock upon the first
depression of the RKE transmitter Unlock button.
²Remote Linked to Memory- If the vehicle is
equipped with the Memory System, this feature
allows the option of having the RKE transmitter
Unlock button activate the recall of the stored set-
tings, or having the recall function assigned solely to
the memory switch on the driver side front door trim
panel.
²Sound Horn on Lock- Allows the option of
having the horn sound a short chirp as an audible
verification that the doors have locked, or having no
audible verification.
²Flash Lights with Lock- Allows the option of
having the lights flash as an optical verification that
the doors have locked, or having no optical verifica-
tion.
This group covers the following components of the
RKE system:
²RKE Receiver
²RKE Transmitter
Certain functions and features of the RKE system
rely upon resources shared with other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sensor
information. This helps to reduce wire harness com-
plexity, 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 feature capabil-
ities. For diagnosis of these electronic modules or of
the PCI data bus network, the use of a DRBIIItscan
tool and the appropriate diagnostic information are
required.The other electronic modules that may affect RKE
system operation are as follows:

Hard wired circuitry connects the RKE system
components via the PDM to the electrical 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 RKE system com-
ponents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different

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.
COMBINATION FLASHER
The combination flasher is a smart relay that func-
tions as both the turn signal system and the hazard
warning system flasher. The combination flasher con-
tains active electronic Integrated Circuitry (IC) ele-
ments. This flasher can be energized by the BCM to
flash all of the park/turn signal/front side marker
lamps as an optical alert for the RKE panic function
and, if the Flash Lights with Lock programmable fea-
ture is enabled, as an optical verification for the RKE
lock event. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/

²If the power lock system functions with the RKE
transmitter, but not with one or both power lock
switches, proceed to diagnosis of the door modules.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/DOOR MODULE - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING).
²If the driver side power lock switch operates
only the driver side front door power lock motor, but
all other power lock motors operate with the passen-
ger side power lock switch or the RKE transmitter,
use a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnos-
tic information to diagnose the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus.
²If only one power lock motor fails to operate
with both power lock switches and the RKE trans-
mitter, proceed to diagnosis of the power lock motor.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/POWER
LOCK MOTOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system. However, these
tests may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
this system. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the RKE system, the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network and all of the elec-
tronic modules that provide inputs to, or receive out-
puts from the RKE system components must be
checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the RKE system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnostic
information. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide con-
firmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that all
of the electronic modules are sending and receiving
the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and that
the RKE receiver is being sent the proper radio fre-
quency signals by the RKE transmitters to perform
its RKE system functions.
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.
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
As a preliminary diagnosis for the RKE system,
note the system operation while you perform both the
Lock and Unlock functions with the power lock
switches and with the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter. Then, proceed as follows:
²If the entire power lock system fails to function
with either the power lock switches or the RKE
transmitter, check the fused B(+) fuse in the PowerDistribution Center. If the fuse is OK, proceed to the
diagnosis for the door modules. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/
DOOR MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
²If the power lock system functions with both
power lock switches, but not with the RKE transmit-
ter, proceed to the diagnosis for the RKE transmitter.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/RE-
MOTE KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING).
²If the driver side power lock switch operates
only the driver side front door power lock motor, but
all other power lock motors operate with the passen-
ger side power lock switch or the RKE transmitter,
use a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnos-
tic information to diagnose the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus.
If the problem being diagnosed involves only the
Sound Horn on Lock or the Flash Lights with Locks
features, be certain that these programmable fea-
tures are enabled. If the features are enabled and the
service horn and turn signals still operate, the Body
Control Module (BCM) and the PCI data bus must be
tested. For diagnosis of the BCM or the PCI data
bus, the use of a DRBIII scan tool and the appropri-
ate diagnostic information are required.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - LIFTGATE FLIP-UP
GLASS POWER RELEASE SYSTEM
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.
(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the Junction
Block (JB). If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the
shorted circuit or component as required and replace
the faulty fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
in the JB. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the
open fused B(+) circuit to the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) as required.
(3) Disconnect the liftgate wire harness connector
for the liftgate lock motor and flip-up glass limit
switch from the motor and switch connector recepta-
cle. Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) cir-
cuit cavity of the liftgate wire harness connector for
the liftgate lock motor and flip-up glass limit switch.
If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused
B(+) circuit between the liftgate lock motor and
flip-up glass limit switch and the JB as required.
(4) Check for continuity between the two liftgate
flip-up glass limit switch terminals. There should be
continuity with the liftgate latch unlocked, and no
continuity with the latch locked. If OK, go to Step 5.

DESCRIPTION
Driver and passenger side power operated outside
rear view mirrors are standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The power mirror system
allows the driver to adjust both outside mirrors elec-
trically from the driver seat position by operating a
switch on the driver side front door trim panel. The
power mirror system receives non-switched battery
current through a fuse in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) so that the power mirrors remain oper-
ational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The standard equipment power operated outside
rear view mirrors are also equipped with the heated
mirror system, which will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On position and the rear
window defogger switch is turned on. When the rear
window defogger switch is in the On position, electric
heater grids on the rear window 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 outside rear view mirrors
of ice, snow, or fog. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
HEATED MIRRORS - DESCRIPTION) for more
information on this feature.
A driver side automatic dimming outside mirror
that dims the mirror to reduce the glare of bright
lights approaching the vehicle from behind, and a
memory system that automatically positions the
power mirrors for two different drivers are optionalfactory-installed equipment on this model. (Refer to 8

POWER SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Driver and passenger power front seats are an
available factory-installed option for this vehicle. The
power seat system option allows the driver and front
seat passenger to electrically adjust their seating
positions for optimum control and comfort using the
power seat switches located on the outboard seat
cushion side shield of each front seat. The power seat
system receives battery current through a fuse in the
Power Distribution Center (PDC) and a circuit
breaker in the junction block so that the power seats
remain operational, regardless of the ignition switch
position.Four power seat options are offered on this vehicle,
depending upon the model. They are as follows:
²Six-way power drivers seat with manual
passenger seat- This power seat package is an
option on Laredo models equipped with cloth-
trimmed seats and includes a six-way adjustable
driver seat track with manual seat back recliners.
²Six-way power driver and passenger seat-
This power seat package is an option on Laredo mod-
els equipped with cloth or leather-trimmed seats and
includes six-way adjustable seat tracks with manual
seat back recliners. Heated Seats are available on
leather-trimmed seats.
²Ten-way power drivers seat with Memory
and Six-way power passenger seat- This power
seat package is standard on Limited models. This
option includes a six-way adjustable seat track with
power seat back recliners and power lumbar supports
for the driver and six-way only for the passenger.

OPERATION
The power window system includes the Driver
Door Module (DDM) and Passenger Door Module
(PDM), which are mounted in their respective front
door, the rear door power window switches mounted
on the rear doors, and the power window motors
mounted to the window regulator in each door. The
DDM houses four master power window switches, the
power window lockout switch and the control logic for
the driver side front and rear door power windows.
The PDM houses the passenger side front door power
window switch and the control logic for the passenger
side front and rear door power windows.
When a master power window switch on the DDM
is used to operate a passenger side power window,
the DDM sends the window switch actuation mes-
sage to the PDM over the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus. The PDM responds
to these messages by sending control outputs to move
the passenger side power window motors. In addi-
tion, when the power window lockout switch in the
DDM is actuated to disable power window operation,
a lockout message is sent to the PDM over the PCI
data bus.
The Body Control Module (BCM) also supports and
controls certain features of the power window sys-
tem. The BCM receives a hard wired input from the
ignition switch. The programming in the BCM allows
it to process the information from this input and
send ignition switch status messages to the DDM
and the PDM over the PCI data bus. The DDM and
PDM use this information and hard wired inputs
from the front door ajar switches to control the light-
ing of the power window switch lamps, and to control
the operation of the power window after ignition-off
feature.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the power window system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER
WINDOWS
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power
window system. However, these tests may not prove
conclusive in the diagnosis of this system. In order to
obtain conclusive testing of the power window sys-
tem, the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network and all of the electronic mod-
ules that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from
the power window system components must be
checked.The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the power window system requires the use
of a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRB scan tool can provide confir-
mation that the PCI data bus is functional, that all
of the electronic modules are sending and receiving
the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and that
the power window motors are being sent the proper
hard wired outputs by the door modules for them to
perform their power window system functions.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate 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 connec-
tors, splices and grounds.
ALL WINDOWS INOPERATIVE
(1) Check the operation of the power lock switch
on the driver side front door. If all of the doors lock
and unlock, but none of the power windows operate,
use a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Pro-
cedures manual to check the Body Control Module
(BCM), the Driver Door Module (DDM) and the PCI
data bus for proper operation. If not OK, go to Step
2.
(2) Check the operation of the power lock switch
on the passenger side front door. If the passenger
doors lock and unlock, but the driver side front door
does not, go to Step 5. If all of the power locks and
power windows are inoperative from both front doors,
go to Step 3.
(3) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC). If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK,
repair the shorted circuit or component as required
and replace the faulty fuse.
(4) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
in the PDC. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the
open fused B(+) circuit to the battery as required.
(5) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Remove the trim panel from the driver side
front door. Disconnect the 15-way door wire harness
connector from the DDM connector receptacle. Check
for continuity between the ground circuit cavity of
the 15-way door wire harness connector for the DDM
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) Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
15-way door wire harness connector for the DDM. If
OK, replace the faulty DDM. If not OK, repair the
open fused B(+) circuit to the fuse in the PDC as
required.
