TRAILER TOW RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The trailer tow relays are located in a connector
bank above the right rear wheelhouse and behind the
quarter trim panel on vehicles equipped with the
optional factory-installed trailer towing package.
Four individual relays are used, one each for fused
ignition switch output (run), brake lamps, right turn
signal, and left turn signal outputs to a trailer
through the rear body wiring and connectors. The
trailer tow relays are conventional International
Standards Organization (ISO) micro relays (Fig. 64).
Relays conforming to the ISO specifications have
common physical dimensions, current capacities, ter-
minal patterns, and terminal functions. The relay is
contained within a small, rectangular, molded plastic
housing and is connected to all of the required inputs
and outputs by five integral male spade-type termi-
nals that extend from the bottom of the relay base.
The trailer tow relays cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the inoperative
relay must be replaced.
OPERATION
The trailer tow relays are electromechanical
switches. The relays each use an input from the cir-
cuit that they isolate from the trailer wiring to con-
trol a high current output to the trailer. The movable
common feed contact point is held against the fixed
normally closed contact point by spring pressure.When the relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic
field is produced by the coil windings. This electro-
magnetic field draws the movable relay contact point
away from the fixed normally closed contact point,
and holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The terminals of each trailer tow relay are con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a con-
nector bank in the rear lighting wire harness above
the right rear wheelhouse. 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. The trailer tow relays can be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and methods.

TRAILER TOW WIRING
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with an optional factory-in-
stalled (not dealer-installed or port-installed) trailer
towing package have a rear body wire harness that
includes an integral trailer tow wiring take out that
connects to a heavy duty, sealed, 7-pin trailer tow
connector located on a bracket on the trailer hitch
receiver (Fig. 68). This harness includes a second
take out with a trailer tow relay connector bank and
four trailer tow relays that isolate the right turn sig-
nal, left turn signal, and brake lamp circuits of the
vehicle from the electrical system of the trailer. The
fourth relay in the connector bank provides a fused
ignition switch output (run) source of battery current
to the trailer tow connector through a trailer tow
relay output circuit. The package also includes an
adapter harness (stored beneath the left rear seat
cushion of the vehicle when it is shipped from the
factory) that adapts the 7-pin trailer tow connector to
a standard, light-duty, 4-pin trailer tow connector.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing 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 har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.

LAMP BAR
DESCRIPTION
The lamp bar is used to better illuminate the driv-
ers field of vision under certain driving conditions. It
consists of a cover, two or four lamp assemblies
(depending upon which market), and a wiring har-
ness. These components are mounted to a reinforce-
ment, then sealed and secured to the roof panel.
Lamp bar illumination is controlled by a manually
operated momentary rocker switch, mounted to the
instrument panel. The lamps are adjustable in the
vertical position only.
OPERATION
Battery and ignition voltage are supplied to the
lamp bar switch assembly. When the switch is in the
on position the internal relay contacts close, complet-
ing the circuit through the lamp bar bulbs, to
ground. The lamp bar assembly is grounded to the
chassis. The hard wired circuits of the lamp bar may
be diagnosed and tested using conventional methods
and procedures.

POWER LOCKS
DESCRIPTION
POWER LOCKS
A power operated door and tailgate lock system is
available factory-installed equipment on this model.
The power lock system allows all of the doors and thetailgate 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 cur-
rent through a fuse in the Junction Block (JB), so
that the power locks remain operational, regardless
of the ignition switch position.
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks the doors
and tailgate automatically when the vehicle is driven
beyond the speed of 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors
KJPOWER SYSTEMS 8N - 1

The tailgate will lock and can not be unlocked if
the rear wiper switch is activated. The tailgate will
also lock if battery power is lost and then restored.
The tailgate/flip-up glass will not function with the
battery discharged or disconnected.
COMBINATION FLASHER
This flasher can be energized by the BCM to flash
all of the park/turn signal lamps as a optical alert for
the RKE panic function and, if the Flash Lights with
Lock programmable feature is enabled, as an optical
verification for the RKE lock event.
HORN RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to sound
the horns as an audible alert for the RKE panic func-
tion and, if the Sound Horn on Lock programmable
feature is enabled, as an audible verification for the
RKE lock event.
LOW BEAM HEADLAMP RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to flash
the headlamp low beams as an optical alert for the
RKE panic function.
OPERATION
POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. All passenger doors can be
locked or unlocked using a mechanical button
mounted on the door trim panel. The front passenger
doors and tailgate can be locked or unlocked by using
the key cylinder (tailgate cylinder does not lock/un-
lock vehicle. It only unlocks the tailgate). The tail-
gate will lock and can not be unlocked if the rear
wiper switch is activated (this prevents the wiper
from operating when the tailgate is ajar). The tail-
gate will also lock if battery power is lost and then
restored.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
When the automatic door locks are ENABLED the
door locks will lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors are closed and
the accelerator pedal is depressed. This feature can
be switched ON or OFF as desired. When the system
is DISABLED the door locks will operate normally,
but will not lock automatically when the vehicle is
rolling. Once the automatic door locks have been
actuated, they will not try to lock the doors again
until a door is opened.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, the doors can not be locked,
but the unlock function still operates. Pressing the
RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions will
result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock relays. If the door
lock switch is actuated continuously for more than
five seconds the BCM will turn the output driver
OFF (the BCM would consider the switch stuck).
Each lock motor is protected with a Positive Temper-
ature Coefficient device that prevents motor burn
out.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
²LOCK: Pressing the LOCK button locks all
doors, sounds horn (chirp) if enabled, and arms the
Vehicle Theft Security System, if enabled. The chirp
verifies that the RKE receiver has sent a message to
the BCM for door lock operation. If a door has not
been closed before pressing the LOCK button, the
vehicle may not be secured and the VTSS (if
equipped) will not arm until the door is closed.
²UNLOCK: Pressing the UNLOCK button once
will unlock the driver's door and activate the illumi-
nated entry system and disarm Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System, if equipped. Pressing the UNLOCK
button twice within five seconds will unlock all doors.
²TAILGATE: Pressing the TAILGATE BUTTON
unlocks the tailgate remotely and opens the flip-up
glass.
²PANIC: Pressing the PANIC button sounds the
horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s) in
its memory even after vehicle power has been inter-
rupted.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) enters a
reduced power mode after the key is turned
OFF. All diagnosis and testing of the power lock
system must be done with the key in the ON
position unless otherwise stated.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the power lock system
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the
KJPOWER LOCKS 8N - 3
POWER LOCKS (Continued)

proper Diagnostic Procedures manual. The
DRBIIItscan tool can provide confirmation
that the PCI data bus is functional, that all of
the electronic modules are sending and receiv-
ing the proper messages on the PCI data bus,
and that the power lock motors are being sent
the proper hard wired outputs by the relays for
them to perform their power lock system func-
tions.
Following are tests that will help to diagnose the
hard wired components and circuits of the power lock
system. However, these tests may not prove conclu-
sive in the diagnosis of this system. In order to
obtain conclusive testing of the power lock system,
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus network and all of the electronic modules
that provide inputs to, or receive outputs from the
power lock system components must be checked.
The Body Control Module (BCM) will set Diagnos-
tic Trouble Codes (DTC) for the power lock 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.
PRELIMINARY DIAGNOSIS
As a preliminary diagnosis for the power lock sys-
tem, note the system operation while you actuate
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 junction
Block (JB).
²If the power lock system functions with both
power lock switches, but not with the RKE transmit-
ter, proceed to diagnosis of the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER - DIAG-
NOSIS AND TESTING) or (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/POWER LOCKS/REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
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 lock
switches. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER
LOCKS/POWER LOCK SWITCH - 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).

DOOR LOCK MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The lock mechanisms are actuated by a reversible
electric motor mounted within each door and tailgate.
The power lock motors are integral to the door latch
units.
The power lock motors cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the door latch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The door lock motors are controlled by relays. A
positive and negative battery connection to the two
motor terminals will cause the motor to move in one
direction. Reversing the current will cause the motor
to move in the opposite direction.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
MOTOR
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the power lock system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide
confirmation that the PCI data bus is functional, that
all of the electronic modules are sending and receiv-
ing the proper messages on the PCI data bus, and
that the power lock motors are being sent the proper
hard wired outputs by the door modules for them to
perform their power lock 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

DOOR LOCK RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The power door lock system uses the following
relays for the front and rear passenger doors only:
²Driver door unlock relay
²Door lock relay
²Passenger Doors unlock relay
The tailgate uses outputs from the Body Control
Module (BCM).
The relays are electromechanical devices that
switch battery current to the door lock circuit when
the Body Control Module (BCM) grounds the relay
coil. These relays are located in the Junction Block
(JB). For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring information. The wiring informa-
tion includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and con-
nector repair procedures, details of wire harness
routing and retention, connector pin-out information
and location views for the various wire harness con-
nectors, splices and grounds.
The relays are a International Standards Organi-
zation (ISO) micro-relay. Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions. The ISO micro-relay terminal functions
are the same as a conventional ISO relay. However,
the ISO micro-relay terminal pattern (or footprint) is
different, the current capacity is lower, and the phys-
ical dimensions are smaller than those of the conven-
tional ISO relay.
The relay cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The ISO relay consists of an electromagnetic coil, a
resistor and three (two fixed and one movable) elec-
trical contacts. The movable (common feed) relay con-
tact is held against one of the fixed contacts
(normally closed) by spring pressure. When the elec-
tromagnetic coil is energized, it draws the movable
contact away from the normally closed fixed contact,
and holds it against the other (normally open) fixed
contact.When the electromagnetic coil is de-energized,
spring pressure returns the movable contact to the
normally closed position. The resistor is connected in
parallel with the electromagnetic coil in the relay,
and helps to dissipate voltage spikes that are pro-
duced when the coil is de-energized.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR LOCK
RELAY
The power lock relays (Fig. 4) are located in the
Junction Block (JB) under the instrument panel. For
complete circuit diagrams, 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.
