Tab 9 JEEP LIBERTY 2002 KJ / 1.G Workshop Manual

Because of coil design, spark plug cables (second-
ary cables) are not used. A distributor is not used
with the 3.7L engine.
Two knock sensors (one for each cylinder bank) are
used to help control spark knock.
The Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay provides battery
voltage to each ignition coil. The Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) provides a ground contact (circuit) for
energizing each coil. When the PCM breaks the con-
tact, the energy in the coil primary transfers to the
secondary causing a spark. The PCM will de-energize
the ASD relay if it does not receive inputs from
either the crankshaft or camshaft position sensors.

ground contact (circuit) for energizing the coil(s). The
PCM will de-energize the ASD relay if it does not
receive the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft
position sensor inputs.
Base ignition timing is not adjustable.By con-
trolling the coil ground circuit, the PCM is able to set
the base timing and adjust the ignition timing
advance. This is done to meet changing engine oper-
ating conditions.
The ignition coil is not oil filled. The windings are
embedded in an epoxy compound. This provides heat
and vibration resistance that allows the ignition coil
to be mounted on the engine.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTION
The instrument cluster for this model is an Elec-
troMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) module
that is located in the instrument panel above the
steering column opening, directly in front of the
driver (Fig. 1). The remainder of the EMIC, including
the mounts and the electrical connections, are con-
cealed behind the cluster bezel. The EMIC gauges
and indicators are protected by an integral clear
plastic cluster lens, and are visible through a dedi-
cated opening in the cluster bezel on the instrument
panel. Just behind the cluster lens is the cluster hood
and an integral cluster mask, which are constructed
of molded black plastic. Two cluster masks are used;
a base black version is used on base models, while a
premium black version features a chrome trim ring
around the perimeter of each gauge opening is used
on premium models. The cluster hood serves as a
visor and shields the face of the cluster from ambient
light and reflections to reduce glare, while the cluster
mask serves to separate and define the individual
gauges and indicators of the EMIC. On the lower
edge of the cluster lens just right of the speedometer,
the black plastic odometer/trip odometer switch but-
ton protrudes through dedicated holes in the clustermask and the cluster lens. The molded plastic EMIC
lens, hood and mask unit has three integral mount-
ing tabs, one each on the lower outboard corners of
the unit and one on the upper surface of the hood
near the center. These mounting tabs are used to
secure the EMIC to the molded plastic instrument
panel cluster carrier with two screws at the top, and
one screw at each outboard tab. A single molded con-
nector receptacle located on the EMIC electronic cir-
cuit board is accessed from the back of the cluster
housing and is connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem through a single dedicated take out and connec-
tor of the instrument panel wire harness.
Behind the cluster lens, hood, and mask unit is the
cluster overlay and gauges. The overlay is a lami-
nated plastic unit. The dark, visible, outer surface of
the overlay is marked with all of the gauge dial faces
and graduations, but this layer is also translucent.
The darkness of this outer layer prevents the cluster
from appearing cluttered or busy by concealing the
cluster indicators that are not illuminated, while the
translucence of this layer allows those indicators and
icons that are illuminated to be readily visible. The
underlying layer of the overlay is opaque and allows
light from the various indicators and illumination
lamps behind it to be visible through the outer layer
of the overlay only through predetermined cutouts.
The orange gauge pointers are each illuminated
internally. The EMIC electronic circuitry is protected
by a molded plastic rear cover that features several
round access holes for service of the cluster illumina-
tion lighting and a single rectangular access hole for
the EMIC connector receptacle. The EMIC housing,
circuit board, gauges, and overlay unit are sand-
wiched between the lens, hood, and mask unit and
the rear cover with screws.
Twelve versions of the EMIC module are offered on
this model, six base and six premium. These versions
accommodate all of the variations of optional equip-
ment and regulatory requirements for the various
markets in which the vehicle will be offered. This
module utilizes integrated circuitry and information
carried on the Programmable Communications Inter-
face (PCI) data bus network for control of all gauges
and many of the indicators. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/COM-
MUNICATION - DESCRIPTION - PCI BUS). The
EMIC also uses several hard wired inputs in order to

OPERATION
The ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
is designed to allow the vehicle operator to monitor
the conditions of many of the vehicle components and
operating systems. The gauges and indicators in the
EMIC provide valuable information about the various
standard and optional powertrains, fuel and emis-
sions systems, cooling systems, lighting systems,
safety systems and many other convenience items.
The EMIC is installed in the instrument panel so
that all of these monitors can be easily viewed by the
vehicle operator when driving, while still allowing
relative ease of access for service. The microproces-sor-based EMIC hardware and software uses various
inputs to control the gauges and indicators visible on
the face of the cluster. Some of these inputs are hard
wired, but most are in the form of electronic mes-
sages that are transmitted by other electronic mod-
ules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/COMMUNICATION - OPERATION).
The EMIC microprocessor smooths the input data
using algorithms to provide gauge readings that are
accurate, stable and responsive to operating condi-
tions. These algorithms are designed to provide

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR
DESCRIPTION
The exterior lighting system for this model
includes the following exterior lamps (Fig. 1):
²Backup Lamps- The backup (or reverse) lamps
are integral to the rear lamp units mounted to the
back of the quarter panel on each side of the tailgate
at the rear of the vehicle.
²Brake Lamps- The brake (or stop) lamps
include a lamp that is integral to the rear lamp units
mounted to the back of the quarter panel on each
side of the tailgate, and the Center High Mounted
Stop Lamp (CHMSL) that is centered on the rear
edge of the roof panel above the flip-up glass opening
at the rear of the vehicle.²Daytime Running Lamps- Vehicles manufac-
tured for sale in Canada illuminate the high beam
filament in each headlamp bulb serves as the Day-
time Running Lamps (DRL).
²Front Fog Lamps- Optional front fog lamps
include a single round front fog lamp unit with an
adjustable reflector and a removable bulb that is
secured behind a dedicated opening on each forward-
facing end of the front bumper fascia.
²Hazard Warning Lamps- The hazard warning
lamps include all of the right and left turn signal
lamps.
²Headlamps- A single round headlamp housing
with a fixed lens, an adjustable reflector, and a single
removable halogen bulb is secured to the grille open-
ing panel on each side of the grille opening at the
8L - 2 LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIORKJ

DRL relay is energized, it provides battery current
from a fused B(+) fuse in the JB to the headlamp
high beam filament through the DRL relay output
circuit.
FRONT FOG LAMPS
Vehicles equipped with optional front fog lamps
have a premium Body Control Module (BCM), a front
fog lamp relay installed in the Junction Block (JB),
and a front fog lamp switch integral to the left (light-
ing) control stalk of the multi-function switch. The
front fog lamps have a path to ground at all times
through their connection to the front fascia wire har-
ness from two take outs of the headlamp and dash
wire harness with eyelet terminal connectors that
are secured by ground screws to the left inner fender
shield in the engine compartment. The BCM controls
front fog lamp operation by monitoring the exterior
lighting switch input from the multi-function switch,
then energizing or de-energizing the front fog lamp
relay control coil; and, by sending the appropriate
electronic message to the instrument cluster over the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus to turn the front fog lamp indicator on or off.
When the front fog lamp relay is energized, it pro-
vides battery current from a fused B(+) fuse in the
JB to the front fog lamps through the front fog lamp
relay output circuit. The BCM provides a battery
saver (load shedding) feature for the front fog lamps,
which will turn these lamps off if they are left on for
more than about eight minutes with the ignition
switch in the Off position. In certain markets where
required, the front fog lamps are also turned off by
the BCM whenever the headlamp high beams are
selected. Each front fog lamp includes an integral
adjustment screw to be used for static aiming the fog
lamp beams.
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
With the hazard switch in the On position, the
hazard warning system is activated causing the haz-
ard switch button illumination lamp, the right and
left turn signal indicators, and the right and left turn
signal lamps to flash on and off. When the hazard
warning system is activated, the circuitry within the
hazard switch and electronic combination flasher
unit will repeatedly energize and de-energize two
internal relays that switch battery current from a
fused B(+) fuse in the Junction Block (JB) to the
right side and left side turn signal indicators, and
turn signal lamps through the right and left turn sig-
nal circuits. The flashing of the hazard switch button
illumination lamp is performed internally by the haz-
ard switch and combination flasher unit circuit
board. The hazard warning lamps can also be ener-
gized by the Body Control Module (BCM) through ahazard lamp control circuit input to the hazard
switch and combination flasher unit.
HEADLAMPS
The headlamp system includes the Body Control
Module (BCM), a low beam relay installed in the
Junction Block (JB), a high beam relay installed in
the JB (except Canada), a solid state Daytime Run-
ning Lamps (DRL) relay installed in the JB (Canada
only), and the exterior lighting (headlamp and dim-
mer) switches integral to the left (lighting) control
stalk of the multi-function switch. The headlamp
bulbs have a path to ground at all times through
their connection to the grille opening reinforcement
wire harness from two take outs of the headlamp and
dash wire harness with eyelet terminal connectors
that are secured by ground screws to the left inner
fender shield in the engine compartment. The BCM
controls the headlamp operation by monitoring the
exterior lighting switch inputs from the multi-func-
tion switch, then energizing or de-energizing the con-
trol coils of the low beam relay, the high beam relay,
or the solid state circuitry of the DRL relay; and, by
sending the appropriate electronic message to the
instrument cluster over the Programmable Commu-
nications Interface (PCI) data bus to turn the high
beam indicator on or off. When each respective relay
is energized, it provides battery current from a fused
B(+) fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
through a relay (low beam, high beam, or DRL) out-
put circuit and four separate fuses in the JB through
individual fused right and left, low and high beam
output circuits to the appropriate headlamp bulb fil-
aments. The BCM provides a battery saver (load
shedding) feature for the headlamps, which will turn
these lamps off if they are left on for more than
about eight minutes with the ignition switch in the
Off position; and, a headlamp delay feature with a
DRBIIItscan tool programmable delay interval.
Each headlamp includes an integral adjustment
screw to be used for static aiming of the headlamp
beams.
HEADLAMP LEVELING
In certain markets where required, a headlamp
leveling system is provided on the vehicle. The head-
lamp leveling system includes unique headlamp units
equipped with a headlamp leveling actuator motor,
and a rotary thumbwheel actuated headlamp leveling
switch on the instrument panel. The headlamp level-
ing system allows the headlamp beams to be
adjusted to one of four vertical positions to compen-
sate for changes in inclination caused by the loading
of the vehicle suspension. The actuator motors are
mechanically connected through an integral pushrod
to an adjustable headlamp reflector. The headlamp
