flip-up glass ajar switch, the hood ajar switch (in
required markets only), and the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) module to control the features of the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS).
Hard wired circuitry connects the BCM to the elec-
trical 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
BCM through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
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.
Many of the electronic features in the vehicle con-
trolled or supported by the BCM are programmable
using a customer programming procedure or the
DRBIIItscan tool. In addition, the BCM software is
Flash compatible, which means it can be repro-
grammed using Flash reprogramming procedures.
However, if any of the BCM hardware components is
damaged or faulty, the entire BCM unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The microprocessor-based Body Control Module
(BCM) monitors many hard wired switch and sensor
inputs as well as those resources it shares with other
electronic modules in the vehicle through its commu-
nication over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The internal pro-
gramming and all of these inputs allow the BCM
microprocessor to determine the tasks it needs to
perform and their priorities, as well as both the stan-
dard and optional features that it should provide.
The BCM programming then performs those tasks
and provides those features through both PCI data
bus communication with other electronic modules
and through hard wired outputs through a number of
driver circuits, relays, and actuators. These outputs
allow the BCM the ability to control numerous acces-
sory systems in the vehicle.
The BCM operates on battery current received
through a fuse in the Junction Block (JB) on a non-
switched fused B(+) circuit, through another fuse in
the JB on a fused ignition switch output (run-start)
circuit, and through a third fuse in the JB on a fused
ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit. This arrange-
ment allows the BCM to provide some features
regardless of the ignition switch position, while other
features will operate only with the ignition switch inthe On, Start, and/or Accessory positions. All of the
battery current circuits are connected to the BCM
through the JB/BCM connector. The BCM receives
ground through five separate circuits. Three of these
circuits are connected to the BCM through a connec-
tor and take out of the instrument panel wire har-
ness on three separate ground circuits, while the
other two circuits are connected to the BCM through
the JB/BCM connector. All of these circuits are
grounded through a splice block located in the instru-
ment panel wire harness with an eyelet terminal con-
nector that is secured by a nut to a ground stud on
the driver side instrument panel end bracket near
the JB.
The BCM monitors its own internal circuitry as
well as many of its input and output circuits, and
will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in elec-
tronic memory for any failure it detects. These DTCs
can be retrieved and diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

KJELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES 8E - 5
BODY CONTROL MODULE (Continued)

ison, the prior two-wire Chrysler Collision Detection
(CCD) data bus system is designed to run at 7.8125
Kbps.
The voltage network used to transmit messages
requires biasing and termination. Each module on
the PCI data bus system provides its own biasing
and termination. Each module (also referred to as a
node) terminates the bus through a terminating
resistor and a terminating capacitor. There are two
types of nodes on the bus. The dominant node termi-
nates the bus througha1KWresistor and a 3300 pF
capacitor. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is
the only dominant node for the PCI data bus system.
A standard node terminates the bus through an 11
KW resistor and a 330 pF capacitor.
The modules bias the bus when transmitting a
message. The PCI bus uses low and high voltage lev-
els to generate signals. Low voltage is around zero
volts and the high voltage is about seven and one-
half volts. The low and high voltage levels are gener-
ated by means of variable-pulse width modulation to
form signals of varying length. The Variable Pulse
Width Modulation (VPWM) used in PCI bus messag-
ing is a method in which both the state of the bus
and the width of the pulse are used to encode bit
information. A9zero9bit is defined as a short low
pulse or a long high pulse. A9one9bit is defined as a
long low pulse or a short high pulse. A low (passive)
state on the bus does not necessarily mean a zero bit.
It also depends upon pulse width. If the width is
short, it stands for a zero bit. If the width is long, it
stands for a one bit. Similarly, a high (active) state
does not necessarily mean a one bit. This too depends
upon pulse width. If the width is short, it stands for
a one bit. If the width is long, it stands for a zero bit.
In the case where there are successive zero or one
data bits, both the state of the bus and the width of
the pulse are changed alternately. This encoding
scheme is used for two reasons. First, this ensures
that only one symbol per transition and one transi-
tion per symbol exists. On each transition, every
transmitting module must decode the symbol on the
bus and begin timing of the next symbol. Since tim-
ing of the next symbol begins with the last transition
detected on the bus, all of the modules are re-syn-
chronized with each symbol. This ensures that thereare no accumulated timing errors during PCI data
bus communication.
The second reason for this encoding scheme is to
guarantee that the zero bit is the dominant bit on
the bus. When two modules are transmitting simul-
taneously on the bus, there must be some form of
arbitration to determine which module will gain con-
trol. A data collision occurs when two modules are
transmitting different messages at the same time.
When a module is transmitting on the bus, it is read-
ing the bus at the same time to ensure message
integrity. When a collision is detected, the module
that transmitted the one bit stops sending messages
over the bus until the bus becomes idle.
Each module is capable of transmitting and receiv-
ing data simultaneously. The typical PCI bus mes-
sage has the following four components:
²Message Header- One to three bytes in length.
The header contains information identifying the mes-
sage type and length, message priority, target mod-
ule(s) and sending module.
²Data Byte(s)- This is the actual message that
is being sent.
²Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Byte- This
byte is used to detect errors during a message trans-
mission.
²In-Frame Response (IFR) byte(s)-Ifa
response is required from the target module(s), it can
be sent during this frame. This function is described
in greater detail in the following paragraph.
The IFR consists of one or more bytes, which are
transmitted during a message. If the sending module
requires information to be received immediately, the
target module(s) can send data over the bus during
the original message. This allows the sending module
to receive time-critical information without having to
wait for the target module to access the bus. After
the IFR is received, the sending module broadcasts
an End of Frame (EOF) message and releases control
of the bus.
The PCI data bus can be monitored using the
DRBIIItscan tool. It is possible, however, for the bus
to pass all DRBIIIttests and still be faulty if the
voltage parameters are all within the specified range
and false messages are being sent.

DESCRIPTION - SENSOR RETURN
The Sensor Return circuits are internal to the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM).
Sensor Return provides a low±noise ground refer-
ence for all engine control system sensors. Refer to
Power Grounds for more information.
OPERATION
OPERATION - PCM
The PCM operates the fuel system. The PCM is a
pre-programmed, triple microprocessor digital com-
puter. It regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio,
emission control devices, charging system, certain
transmission features, speed control, air conditioning
compressor clutch engagement and idle speed. The
PCM can adapt its programming to meet changing
operating conditions.
The PCM receives input signals from various
switches and sensors. Based on these inputs, the
PCM regulates various engine and vehicle operations
through different system components. These compo-
nents are referred to as Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) Outputs. The sensors and switches that pro-
vide inputs to the PCM are considered Powertrain
Control Module (PCM) Inputs.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing based upon
inputs it receives from sensors that react to: engine
rpm, manifold absolute pressure, engine coolant tem-
perature, throttle position, transmission gear selec-
tion (automatic transmission), vehicle speed, power
steering pump pressure, and the brake switch.
The PCM adjusts idle speed based on inputs it
receives from sensors that react to: throttle position,
vehicle speed, transmission gear selection, engine
coolant temperature and from inputs it receives from
the air conditioning clutch switch and brake switch.
Based on inputs that it receives, the PCM adjusts
ignition coil dwell. The PCM also adjusts the gener-
ator charge rate through control of the generator
field and provides speed control operation.

lock cylinder housing and is concealed beneath the
steering column shrouds. The molded black plastic
housing for the SKIM has an integral molded plastic
halo-like antenna ring that extends from one end.
When the SKIM is properly installed on the steering
column, the antenna ring is oriented around the cir-
cumference of the ignition lock cylinder housing. A
single integral connector receptacle containing six
terminal pins is located on the opposite end of the
SKIM housing from the antenna ring. A stamped
metal mounting bracket secured to the SKIM hous-
ing has a U-shaped clip formation that is used to
secure the unit to the right lower flange of the steer-
ing column jacket.
The SKIM cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty
or damaged, the entire SKIM unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) con-
tains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a
microprocessor. The SKIM transmits RF signals to,
and receives RF signals from the Sentry Key tran-
sponder through a tuned antenna enclosed within the
molded plastic antenna ring integral to the SKIM
housing. If this antenna ring is not mounted properly
around the ignition lock cylinder housing, communi-
cation problems between the SKIM and the transpon-
der may arise. These communication problems will
result in Sentry Key transponder-related faults. The
SKIM also communicates over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus with the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the ElectroMe-
chanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) and/or the
DRBIIItscan tool.The SKIM retains in memory the ID numbers of
any Sentry Key transponder that is programmed into
it. A maximum of eight Sentry Key transponders can
be programmed into the SKIM. For added system
security, each SKIM is programmed with a unique
Secret Key code. This code is stored in memory, sent
over the PCI data bus to the PCM, and is encoded to
the transponder of every Sentry Key that is pro-
grammed into the SKIM. Therefore, the Secret Key
code is a common element that is found in every com-
ponent of the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS).
Another security code, called a PIN, is used to gain
access to the SKIM Secured Access Mode. The
Secured Access Mode is required during service to
perform the SKIS initialization and Sentry Key tran-
sponder programming procedures. The SKIM also
stores the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in its
memory, which it learns through a PCI data bus
message from the PCM during SKIS initialization.
In the event that a SKIM replacement is required,
the Secret Key code can be transferred to the new
SKIM from the PCM using the DRBIIItscan tool
and the SKIS initialization procedure. Proper com-
pletion of the SKIS initialization will allow the exist-
ing Sentry Keys to be programmed into the new
SKIM so that new keys will not be required. In the
event that the original Secret Key code cannot be
recovered, SKIM replacement will also require new
Sentry Keys. The DRBIIItscan tool will alert the
technician during the SKIS initialization procedure if
new Sentry Keys are required.
When the ignition switch is turned to the On posi-
tion, the SKIM transmits an RF signal to the tran-
sponder in the ignition key. The SKIM then waits for
an RF signal response from the transponder. If the
response received identifies the key as valid, the
SKIM sends a valid key message to the PCM over
the PCI data bus. If the response received identifies
the key as invalid, or if no response is received from
the key transponder, the SKIM sends an invalid key
message to the PCM. The PCM will enable or disable
engine operation based upon the status of the SKIM
messages. It is important to note that the default
condition in the PCM is an invalid key; therefore, if
no message is received from the SKIM by the PCM,
the engine will be disabled and the vehicle immobi-
lized after two seconds of running.
The SKIM also sends SKIS indicator status mes-
sages to the EMIC over the PCI data bus to tell the
EMIC how to operate the SKIS indicator. This indi-
cator status message tells the EMIC to turn the indi-
cator on for about three seconds each time the
ignition switch is turned to the On position as a bulb
test. After completion of the bulb test, the SKIM
sends indicator status messages to the EMIC to turn
the indicator off, turn the indicator on, or to flash the

HEATED SEAT MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat module is also known as the Seat
Heat Interface Module. The heated seat module (Fig.
14) is located under the left front seat cushion, where
it is secured to a mounting bracket via two push-pin
retainers. The heated seat module has a single con-
nector receptacle that allows the module to be con-
nected to all of the required inputs and outputs
through the seat wire harness.
The heated seat module is an electronic micropro-
cessor controlled device designed and programmed to
use inputs from the heated seat relay, the two heatedseat switches and the two heated seat sensors to
operate and control the heated seat elements in both
front seats and the two heated seat indicator lamp
Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) in each heated seat
switch. The heated seat module is also programmed
to perform self-diagnosis of certain heated seat sys-
tem functions and provide feedback of that diagnosis
through the heated seat switch indicator lamps.
The heated seat module cannot be repaired. If the
heated seat module is damaged or faulty, the entire
module must be replaced.
OPERATION
The heated seat module operates on fused battery
current received from a fuse in the junction block.
The module is grounded at all times. Inputs to the
module include a resistor multiplexed heated seat
switch request circuit for each of the two heated seat
switches and the heated seat sensor inputs from the
seat cushions of each front seat. In response to those
inputs, the heated seat module controls battery cur-
rent to the heated seat elements and sensors, and

To read the built-in indicator, look into the sight
glass and note the color of the indication (Fig. 8). The
battery condition that each color indicates is
described in the following list:
²Green- Indicates 75% to 100% battery state-of-
charge. The battery is adequately charged for further
testing or return to service. If the starter will not
crank for a minimum of fifteen seconds with a fully-
charged battery, the battery must be load tested.
Refer to Standard Procedures for the proper battery
load test procedures.
²Black or Dark- Indicates 0% to 75% battery
state-of-charge. The battery is inadequately charged
and must be charged until a green indication is visi-
ble in the sight glass (12.4 volts or more), before the
battery is tested further or returned to service. Refer
to Standard Procedures for the proper battery charg-
ing procedures. Also refer to Diagnosis and Testing
for more information on the possible causes of the
discharged battery condition.
²Clear or Bright- Indicates a low battery elec-
trolyte level. The electrolyte level in the battery is
below the built-in indicator. A maintenance-free bat-
tery with non-removable cell caps must be replaced if
the electrolyte level is low. Water must be added to a
low-maintenance battery with removable cell caps
before it is charged. Refer to Standard Procedures for
the proper battery filling procedures. A low electro-
lyte level may be caused by an overcharging condi-
tion. Refer to Charging System for the proper
charging system diagnosis and testing procedures.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HYDROMETER TEST
The hydrometer test reveals the battery state-of-
charge by measuring the specific gravity of the elec-
trolyte.This test cannot be performed on
maintenance-free batteries with non-removable
cell caps.If the battery has non-removable cell caps,
refer to Diagnosis and Testing for alternate methods
of determining the battery state-of-charge.
Specific gravity is a comparison of the density of
the battery electrolyte to the density of pure water.Pure water has a specific gravity of 1.000, and sulfu-
ric acid has a specific gravity of 1.835. Sulfuric acid
makes up approximately 35% of the battery electro-
lyte by weight, or 24% by volume. In a fully-charged
battery the electrolyte will have a temperature-cor-
rected specific gravity of 1.260 to 1.290. However, a
specific gravity of 1.235 or above is satisfactory for
the battery to be load tested and/or returned to ser-
vice.
Before testing, visually inspect the battery for any
damage (a cracked case or cover, loose posts, etc.)
that would cause the battery to be faulty. Then
remove the battery cell caps and check the electrolyte
level. Add distilled water if the electrolyte level is
below the top of the battery plates. Refer to Battery
System Cleaning for the proper battery inspection
procedures.
See the instructions provided by the manufacturer
of the hydrometer for recommendations on the cor-
rect use of the hydrometer that you are using.
Remove only enough electrolyte from the battery cell
so that the float is off the bottom of the hydrometer
barrel with pressure on the bulb released. To read
the hydrometer correctly, hold it with the top surface
of the electrolyte at eye level (Fig. 9).
CAUTION: Exercise care when inserting the tip of
the hydrometer into a battery cell to avoid damag-
ing the plate separators. Damaged plate separators
can cause early battery failure.
Hydrometer floats are generally calibrated to indi-
cate the specific gravity correctly only at 26.7É C.
When testing the specific gravity at any other tem-
perature, a correction factor is required. The correc-
tion factor is approximately a specific gravity value
of 0.004, which may also be identified as four points
of specific gravity. For each 5.5É C above 26.7É C, add
four points. For each 5.5É C below 26.7É C, subtract
four points. Always correct the specific gravity for
temperature variation.
EXAMPLE:A battery is tested at -12.2É C and has
a specific gravity of 1.240. Determine the actual spe-
cific gravity as follows:
(1) Determine the number of degrees above or
below 26.7É C:26.7É C + -12.2É C = 14.5É C below
the 26.7É C specification
(2) Divide the result from Step 1 by 5.5É C:14.5É
C ÷ 5.5É C = 2.64
(3) Multiply the result from Step 2 by the temper-
ature correction factor (0.004):2.64 X 0.004 = 0.01
(4) The temperature at testing was below 26.7É C;
therefore, the temperature correction factor is sub-
tracted:1.240 - 0.01 = 1.23
(5) The corrected specific gravity of the battery cell
in this example is 1.23.

SPECIAL TOOLS
BATTERY TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is attached
to the battery tray located under the battery.
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temper-
ature and control battery charging rate. This temper-
ature data, along with data from monitored line
voltage, is used by the PCM to vary the battery
charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder
temperatures and is gradually reduced at warmer
temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is
grounded through the sensor return line. As temper-
ature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases
and the detection voltage at the PCM increases.The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Cer-
tain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example,
disable purge and enable Leak Detection Pump
(LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II
monitors are disabled below 20 degrees F.
REMOVAL
The battery temperature sensor is located under
the vehicle battery (Fig. 1) and is attached to a
mounting hole on battery tray.
(1) Remove battery. Refer to 8, Battery for proce-
dures.
(2) Disconnect sensor pigtail harness from engine
wire harness electrical connector.
(3) Pry sensor straight up from battery tray
mounting hole.
INSTALLATION
The battery temperature sensor is located under
vehicle battery and is attached to a mounting hole on
battery tray.
(1) Feed pigtail harness through hole in top of bat-
tery tray and press sensor into top of battery tray.
(2) Connect pigtail harness.
(3) Install battery. Refer to 8, Battery for proce-
dures.

STARTING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The starting system consists of:
²Starter relay
²Starter motor (including an integral starter sole-
noid)
Other components to be considered as part of start-
ing system are:
²Battery
²Battery cables
²Ignition switch and key lock cylinder
²Clutch pedal position switch (manual transmis-
sion)
²Park/neutral position switch (automatic trans-
mission)
²Wire harnesses and connections.
The Battery, Starting, and Charging systems oper-
ate in conjunction with one another, and must be
tested as a complete system. For correct operation of
starting/charging systems, all components used in
these 3 systems must perform within specifications.
When attempting to diagnose any of these systems, it
is important that you keep their interdependency in
mind.
The diagnostic procedures used in each of these
groups include the most basic conventional diagnostic
methods, to the more sophisticated On-Board Diag-
nostics (OBD) built into the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM). Use of an induction-type milliampere
ammeter, volt/ohmmeter, battery charger, carbon pile
rheostat (load tester), and 12-volt test lamp may be
required.Certain starting system components are monitored
by the PCM and may produce a Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC). Refer to Emission Control. See Diagnos-
tic Trouble Codes for additional information and a
list of codes.
OPERATION
The starting system components form two separate
circuits. A high-amperage feed circuit that feeds the
starter motor between 150 and 350 amperes (700
amperes - diesel engine), and a low-amperage control
circuit that operates on less than 20 amperes. The
high-amperage feed circuit components include the
battery, the battery cables, the contact disc portion of
the starter solenoid, and the starter motor. The low-
amperage control circuit components include the igni-
tion switch, the clutch pedal position switch (manual
transmission), the park/neutral position switch (auto-
matic transmission), the starter relay, the electro-
magnetic windings of the starter solenoid, and the
connecting wire harness components.
If the vehicle is equipped with a manual transmis-
sion, it has a clutch pedal position switch installed in
series between the ignition switch and the coil bat-
tery terminal of the starter relay. This normally open
switch prevents the starter relay from being ener-
gized when the ignition switch is turned to the
momentary Start position, unless the clutch pedal is
depressed. This feature prevents starter motor oper-
ation while the clutch disc and the flywheel are
engaged. The starter relay coil ground terminal is
always grounded on vehicles with a manual trans-
mission.

HEATED SEAT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Individually controlled electrically heated front
seats are available on models that are also equipped
with the optional leather trim package. Vehicles with
this option can be visually identified by the two sep-
arate heated seat switches mounted on the outboard
seat cushion side shields. The heated seat system
allows the front seat driver and passenger to select
from two different levels of supplemental electrical
seat heating, or no seat heating to suit their individ-
ual comfort requirements. The heated seat system for
this vehicle includes the following major components:
²Heated Seat Switches- Two heated seat
switches are used per vehicle, including two Light-
Emitting Diode (LED) indicator lamps and an incan-
descent back lighting bulb for each switch. One
switch for the driver and one for the passenger front
seats. The switches are mounted on the outboard
seat cushion side shields.
²Heated Seat Module- also referred to as the
Seat Heat Interface Module (SHIM), this module con-
tains the solid state electronic control and diagnostic
logic circuitry for the heated seat system. One heated
seat module is used per vehicle and is mounted
under the left front seat cushion. Refer to the Elec-
tronic Control Modules section of the service manual
for heated seat module information.
²Heated Seat Elements- Four heated seat ele-
ments are used per vehicle, one for each front seat
back and one for each front seat cushion. The ele-
ments are integral to the individual front seat andseat back cushions and cannot be removed from the
cushions, once installed at the factory.
²Heated Seat Sensors- Two heated seat sen-
sors are used per vehicle, one for each front seat. The
sensors are integral to the individual front seat heat-
ing elements.
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the heated seat system. See the own-
er's manual in the vehicle glove box for more infor-
mation on the features, use and operation of the
heated seat system. Refer toWiring Diagramsfor
the location of complete heated seat system wiring
diagrams.
OPERATION
The heated seat module receives fused battery cur-
rent through fuse #29 in the Junction Block (JB)
when the ignition switch is in the ªONº position. The
heated seat switches receive battery current through
fuse #25 in the Junction Block also, when the igni-
tion switch is in the ªONº position. The heated seat
module shares a common ground circuit with each of
the heated seat elements. The heated seat elements
will only operate when the surface temperature of
the seat cushion is below the designed temperature
set points of the system.
The heated seat system will also be turned off
automatically whenever the ignition switch is turned
to any position except On. If the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position while a heated seat is
turned ON, the heated seat will remain Off after the
ignition switch is turned back ªONº until a heated
seat switch is depressed again.

DESCRIPTION-3.7L
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) on the 3.7L
6±cylinder engine is bolted to the right-front side of
the right cylinder head (Fig. 6).
OPERATION
OPERATION - 2.4L
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) sensor con-
tains a hall effect device referred to as a sync signal
generator. A rotating target wheel (tonewheel) for the
CMP is located behind the exhaust valve-camshaft
drive gear (Fig. 7). The target wheel is equipped with
a cutout (notch) around 180 degrees of the wheel.
The CMP detects this cutout every 180 degrees of
camshaft gear rotation. Its signal is used in conjunc-
tion with the Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) to
differentiate between fuel injection and spark events.
It is also used to synchronize the fuel injectors with
their respective cylinders.
When the leading edge of the target wheel cutout
enters the tip of the CMP, the interruption of mag-
netic field causes the voltage to switch high, result-
ing in a sync signal of approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the target wheel cutout
leaves the tip of the CMP, the change of the magnetic
field causes the sync signal voltage to switch low to 0
volts.
OPERATION - 3.7L
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) sensor con-
tains a hall effect device referred to as a sync signal
generator. A rotating target wheel (tonewheel) for the
CMP is located at the front of the camshaft for the
right cylinder head (Fig. 8). This sync signal genera-
tor detects notches located on a tonewheel. As the
tonewheel rotates, the notches pass through the sync
signal generator. The signal from the CMP sensor is
used in conjunction with the Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) to differentiate between fuel injection
and spark events. It is also used to synchronize the
fuel injectors with their respective cylinders.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch
enters the tip of the CMP, the interruption of mag-
netic field causes the voltage to switch high, result-
ing in a sync signal of approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch
leaves then tip of the CMP, the change of the mag-
netic field causes the sync signal voltage to switch
low to 0 volts.
