AUDIO
DESCRIPTION
An audio system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The standard equipment
audio system includes an AM/FM/cassette (RBB sales
code) radio receiver, and speakers in six locations.
Several combinations of radio receivers and speaker
systems are offered as optional equipment on this
model. The audio system uses an ignition switched
control of battery current so that the system will only
operate when the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessory positions.
A Compact Disc (CD) changer with a ten disc mag-
azine, remote radio switches with six functions
mounted to the backs of the steering wheel spokes,
and a memory system that automatically stores and
recalls up to twenty radio station presets (ten AM
and ten FM) and the last station listened to for two
drivers are optional factory-installed equipment on
this model. Refer to Electrical, Power Seats for more
information on the memory system.
The audio system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Antenna
²Compact disc changer (available with RBP sales
code radio receivers only)
²Power amplifier (with premium speaker system
only)
²Radio noise suppression components
²Radio receiver
²Remote radio switches
²Speakers
Certain functions and features of the audio 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 DRB scan
tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual
are recommended.
The other electronic modules that may affect audio
system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL
- DESCRIPTION) for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
The audio system includes the following major
components, which are described in further detail
elsewhere in this service information:

between the rear of the engine cylinder head(s) and
the dash panel sheet metal in the engine compart-
ment.
²Speaker- The standard speaker system
includes six speakers in six locations, while the pre-
mium speaker system includes an amplifier for the
six speakers in six locations.
Hard wired circuitry connects the audio system
components to each other through the electrical sys-
tem of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are
integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed
throughout the vehicle and retained by many differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
audio system components through the use of a com-
bination of soldered splices, splice block connectors
and many different types of wire harness terminal
connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information in this service manual for com-
plete standard and premium audio system circuit
diagrams. The wiring information includes 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 har-
ness connectors, splices, and grounds.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR MODULE
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
The hard wired inputs to and outputs from the
Driver Door Module (DDM) or the Passenger Door
Module (PDM) may be diagnosed and tested using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. It is
suggested that the proper operation of the inopera-
tive power window motor, power door lock motor,
power liftgate lock motor, power mirror motors, or
heated mirror grid be confirmed using jumper wires
to bypass the door module. If the inoperative compo-
nent operates when the door module is bypassed,
check the circuits between the component and the
door module, as well as the fused B(+) and ground
circuits of the door module for shorts or opens.
These conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the DDM or the
PDM. In order to obtain conclusive testing of these
modules, the Programmable Communications Inter-
face (PCI) data bus network and all of the modules
that provide inputs to or receive outputs from the
door modules must also be checked. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
DDM, the PDM, the PCI data bus network, and the
modules that provide inputs to or receive outputs
from the door modules requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic information.

POWERTRAIN CONTROL
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - PCM
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is located
in the engine compartment (Fig. 11). The PCM is
referred to as JTEC.
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to the
output devices. For example, the PCM must calculate
different injector pulse width and ignition timing for
idle than it does for wide open throttle (WOT).
The PCM will operate in two different modes:
Open Loop and Closed Loop.
During Open Loop modes, the PCM receives input
signals and responds only according to preset PCMprogramming. Input from the oxygen (O2S) sensors
is not monitored during Open Loop modes.
During Closed Loop modes, the PCM will monitor
the oxygen (O2S) sensors input. This input indicates
to the PCM whether or not the calculated injector
pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel ratio. This
ratio is 14.7 parts air-to-1 part fuel. By monitoring
the exhaust oxygen content through the O2S sensor,
the PCM can fine tune the injector pulse width. This
is done to achieve optimum fuel economy combined
with low emission engine performance.
The fuel injection system has the following modes
of operation:
²Ignition switch ON
²Engine start-up (crank)
²Engine warm-up
²Idle
²Cruise
²Acceleration
²Deceleration
²Wide open throttle (WOT)
²Ignition switch OFF
The ignition switch On, engine start-up (crank),
engine warm-up, acceleration, deceleration and wide
open throttle modes are Open Loop modes. The idle
and cruise modes, (with the engine at operating tem-
perature) are Closed Loop modes.
IGNITION SWITCH (KEY-ON) MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. When the fuel system
is activated by the ignition switch, the following
actions occur:

HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Individually controlled driver and passenger side
electrically heated front seats are available factory-
installed optional equipment on this model, when it
is also equipped with the power seat option. The
heated seat system allows both the driver and the
front seat passenger the option to select one of two
seat heating ranges, Low or High, or to turn the indi-
vidual seat heaters Off using the heated seat
switches located in the center lower bezel near the
bottom of the instrument panel center stack (Fig. 1).
The heated seat switch circuit operates on ignition
switched battery current supplied through a fuse in
the junction block, only when the ignition switch is
in the On position.
The heated seat system consists of the following
components :
²Heated seat elements
²Heated seat sensors
²Heated seat module (or memory heated seat
module)
²Heated seat switches.
The heated seat system also relies upon resources
shared with other electronic modules in the vehicle
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network. The PCI data bus network
allows the sharing of sensor information. This helps
to reduce wire harness complexity, internal controller
hardware, and component sensor current loads. At
the same time, this system provides increased reli-
ability, enhanced diagnostics, and allows the addition
of many new feature capabilities. For diagnosis of

these electronic modules or of the PCI data bus net-
work, the use of a DRBtscan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures manual are recommended.
The electronic modules that may affect heated seat
system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- Refer toBody
Control Modulein Electronic Control Modules for
more information.
²Heated Seat Module (HSM)- Refer toHeated
Seat Modulein Electronic Control Modules for more
information.
²Memory Heated Seat Module (MHSM)-If
the vehicle is equipped with the Memory System,
refer toMemory Seat Modulein Electronic Control
Modules for more information.
Refer toPower Seats Premium I/IIIin the Con-
tents of Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit dia-
grams. Following are general descriptions of the
major components in the heated seat system.
OPERATION
The heated seat system will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On position, and the surface
temperature at the front seat heating element sen-
sors is below the designed temperature set points of
the system. The heated seat system will not operate
in ambient temperatures greater than about 41É C
(105É F). The front seat heating elements and sensors
are hard wired to the Heated Seat Module (HSM) or
the Memory Heated Seat Module (MHSM).
The heated seat switches are hard wired to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM monitors the
heated seat switch inputs, then sends heated seat
switch status messages to the HSM or MHSM over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus. The HSM or MHSM contains the control
logic for the heated seat system. The HSM or MHSM
responds to the heated seat switch status messages,
ignition switch status messages, and the front seat
heating element sensor inputs by controlling the out-
put to the front seat heating elements through inte-
gral solid-state relays.
When a seat heater is turned on, the sensor
located on the seat cushion electric heater element
provides the HSM or MHSM with an input indicating
the surface temperature of the seat cushion. If the
surface temperature input is below the temperature
set point for the selected Low or High heated seat
switch position, the HSM or MHSM energizes the
integral solid-state relay, which supplies battery cur-
rent to the heating elements in the seat cushion and
back. When the sensor input indicates the correct
temperature set point has been achieved, the HSM or
MHSM de-energizes the solid-state relay. The HSM
or MHSM will continue to cycle the solid-state relay
as needed to maintain the temperature set point.The HSM or MHSM and the seat heater elements
operate on non-switched battery current supplied
through the power seat circuit breaker in the junc-
tion block. However, the HSM or MHSM will auto-
matically turn off the heating elements if it detects
an open or short in the sensor circuit, a short or open
in the heating element circuit causing an excessive
current draw, or when the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the heated seat system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATED SEAT
SYSTEM
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
components and circuits that are hard wired inputs
or outputs of the heated seat system. However, these
tests may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
this system. In order to obtain conclusive testing of
the heated seat system, the Programmable Commu-
nications Interface (PCI) data bus network and all of
the electronic modules that provide inputs to, or
receive outputs from the heated seat system compo-
nents must be checked.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the heated seat system requires the use of a
DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures
manual. The DRBtscan tool can provide confirma-
tion 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
Heated Seat Module (HSM) or Memory Heated Seat
Module (MHSM) is receiving the proper hard wired
inputs and relaying the proper hard wired outputs to
perform its heated seat system functions.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer toWiring
Diagrams.
NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SWAP MEMORY OR
NON-MEMORY HEATED SEAT MODULES FROM
ONE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER. MOST OF THESE
MODULES ARE VEHICLE FEATURE SPECIFIC AND
THEREFORE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE. ALWAYS
USE THE CORRECT PART NUMBERED MODULE
WHEN DIAGNOSING OR REPLACING A MODULE.
WARNING: REFER TO THE RESTRAINTS SECTION
OF THIS MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
STEERING WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN, OR
INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR
SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.

PASSENGER HEATED SEAT
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat switches are mounted in the
instrument panel center lower bezel (Fig. 7), which is
located near the bottom of the instrument panel cen-
ter stack. The two three-position rocker-type
switches, one switch for each front seat, provide a
resistor multiplexed signal to the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM) through separate hard wired circuits.
Each switch has an Off, Low, and High position so
that both the driver and the front seat passenger can
select a preferred seat heating mode. Each switch
has two Light-Emitting Diodes (LED), one each for
the Low position and the High position, which light
to indicate that the heater for the seat that the
switch controls is turned on. Each switch is also back
lit by a replaceable incandescent bulb.
The heated seat switches and their LEDs cannot
be repaired. If either switch or LED is faulty or dam-
aged, the entire switch unit must be replaced. The
incandescent switch illumination bulb and bulb
holder units are available for service replacement.

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).

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) receiver is a
radio frequency unit contained within the Passenger
Door Module (PDM). The PDM also contains the pro-
gram logic circuitry for the RKE system. The PDM is
secured with screws to the back of the trim panel
inside the passenger side front door. The RKE
receiver has a memory function to retain the vehicle
access codes of up to four RKE transmitters. The
receiver is designed to retain the transmitter codes in
memory, even if the battery is disconnected.
For diagnosis of the RKE receiver, the PDM, or the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnos-
tic information are required. The RKE receiver is
only serviced as a unit with the PDM and, if faulty
or damaged, the entire PDM unit must be replaced.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/DOOR MODULE - DESCRIP-
TION).
OPERATION
The RKE receiver is energized by one of three mes-
sages from the RKE transmitter: Unlock, Lock, or
Panic. The PDM circuitry responds to these messages
to lock or unlock the power lock motors that it con-
trols. The PDM circuitry also sends Lock, Unlock,
and Panic messages to other electronic modules over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus. These messages will result in the Driver
Door Module (DDM) locking or unlocking the driver
side front door, and the other electronic modules in
the vehicle responding as their programming dic-
tates.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system Radio
Frequency (RF) transmitter is equipped with three
buttons, labeled Lock, Unlock, and Panic. It is also
equipped with a key ring and is designed to serve as
a key fob. The operating range of the transmitter
radio signal is up to 10 meters (30 feet) from the
RKE receiver.
Each RKE transmitter has a different vehicle
access code, which must be programmed into the
memory of the RKE receiver in the vehicle in order
to operate the RKE system. Two transmitters are
provided with the vehicle, but the RKE receiver canretain the access codes of up to four transmitters in
its memory. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMIT-
TER - STANDARD PROCEDURE - RKE TRANS-
MITTER PROGRAMMING).
In addition, the RKE transmitters for vehicles
equipped with the optional Memory System are color-
coded and have a number ª1º or ª2º molded into the
transmitter case to coincide with the ªDriver 1
(Black)º and ªDriver 2 (Gray)º buttons of the memory
switch on the driver side front door trim panel. These
transmitters must also have their access codes pro-
grammed into the RKE receiver so that they coincide
with the ªDriver 1º and ªDriver 2º buttons of the
memory switch. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYSTEM).
The RKE transmitter operates on two Panasonic
CR2016 (or equivalent) batteries. Typical battery life
is from one to two years. The RKE transmitter can-
not be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitters.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY TRANSMITTER
(1) Replace the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter batteries. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER - STANDARD PROCEDURE - RKE
TRANSMITTER BATTERIES). Test each of the RKE
transmitter functions. If OK, discard the faulty bat-
teries. If not OK, go to Step 2.
(2) Program the suspect RKE transmitter and
another known good transmitter into the RKE
receiver. Use a DRBIIItscan tool, as described in the
appropriate diagnostic information. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY TRANSMITTER - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE - RKE TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING).
(3) Test the RKE system operation with both
transmitters. If both transmitters fail to operate the
power lock system, use a DRBIIItscan tool and the
appropriate diagnostic information for further diag-
nosis of the RKE system. If the known good RKE
transmitter operates the power locks and the suspect
transmitter does not, replace the faulty RKE trans-
mitter.
NOTE: Be certain to perform the RKE Transmitter
Programming procedure again following this test.
This procedure will erase the access code of the
test transmitter from the RKE receiver.

POWER MIRRORS
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
- ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS/AUTOMATIC
DAY / NIGHT MIRROR - DESCRIPTION) for more
information. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
SEATS - DESCRIPTION) for more information.
This group covers the following components of the
power mirror system:
²Power mirrors
²Power mirror switch.
Certain functions and features of the power mirror
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 diagnosis of these electronic
modules or of the PCI data bus network, the use of a
DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures
manual are recommended.
The other electronic modules that may affect power
mirror system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL
- DESCRIPTION) for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-

for the door module. There should be continuity. If
OK, use a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic
Procedures manual to test the door module and the
PCI data bus. If not OK, replace the faulty power
mirror unit.
NO MIRROR DIMMING (Driver Side Only)
(1) Test the operation of the automatic day/night
mirror. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIR-
RORS/AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT MIRROR -
OPERATION). If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair
the automatic day/night mirror unit as required.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Remove the driver side front door trim panel.
(3) Disconnect the door wire harness connector
from the power mirror wire harness connector. Con-
nect a voltmeter between the electrochromatic (+)and electrochromatic (±) circuit cavities of the door
wire harness connector for the power mirror. Turn on
the automatic day/night mirror system while observ-
ing the voltmeter. A voltmeter reading of 1.45 0.05
volts indicates a proper dimming signal is being
received at the door wire harness connector for the
power mirror. If OK, replace the faulty power mirror.
If not OK, repair the shorted or open electrochro-
matic (+) or electrochromatic (±) circuit(s) to the
automatic day/night mirror as required.
NO MIRROR MEMORY
For diagnosis of the memory system, the use of a
DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures
manual are recommended. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER SEATS - DESCRIPTION).
