perform its many functions. The EMIC module incor-
porates a blue-green digital Vacuum Fluorescent Dis-
play (VFD) for displaying odometer and trip
odometer information, as well as several warning
messages and certain diagnostic information. In addi-
tion to instrumentation and indicators, the EMIC has
the hardware and software needed to provide the fol-
lowing features:
²Chime Warning Service- A chime tone gener-
ator on the EMIC electronic circuit board provides
audible alerts to the vehicle operator and eliminates
the need for a separate chime module. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/CHIME WARNING SYSTEM -
DESCRIPTION).
²Panel Lamps Dimming Service- The EMIC
provides a hard wired 12-volt Pulse-Width Modulated
(PWM) output that synchronizes the dimming level
of the radio display, gear selector indicator, heater-air
conditioner control, and all other dimmable lighting
on the panel lamps dimmer circuit with that of the
cluster illumination lamps and VFD.
The EMIC houses four analog gauges and has pro-
visions for up to twenty-four indicators (Fig. 2). The
EMIC includes the following analog gauges:
²Coolant Temperature Gauge
²Fuel Gauge
²Speedometer
²Tachometer
Some of the EMIC indicators are automatically
configured when the EMIC is connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system for compatibility with certain
optional equipment or equipment required for regula-
tory purposes in certain markets. While each EMIC
may have provisions for indicators to support every
available option, the configurable indicators will not
be functional in a vehicle that does not have the
equipment that an indicator supports. The EMIC
includes provisions for the following indicators (Fig.
2):
²Airbag Indicator (with Airbag System only)
²Antilock Brake System (ABS) Indicator
(with ABS only)
²Brake Indicator
²Charging Indicator
²Coolant Low Indicator (with Diesel Engine
only)
²Cruise Indicator (with Speed Control Sys-
tem only)
²Four-Wheel Drive Full Time Indicator (with
Selec-Trac Transfer Case only)
²Four-Wheel Drive Low Mode Indicator
²Four-Wheel Drive Part Time Indicator
²Front Fog Lamp Indicator (with Front Fog
Lamps only)
²High Beam Indicator
²Low Fuel Indicator²Low Oil Pressure Indicator
²Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
²Overdrive-Off Indicator (with Automatic

²Transmission Overtemp Indicator (with
Automatic Transmission only)
²Turn Signal (Right and Left) Indicators
²Wait-To-Start Indicator (with Diesel Engine
only)
²Water-In-Fuel Indicator (with Diesel Engine
only)
Each indicator in the EMIC is illuminated by a
dedicated Light Emitting Diode (LED) that is sol-
dered onto the EMIC electronic circuit board. The
LEDs are not available for service replacement and,
if damaged or faulty, the entire EMIC must be
replaced. Cluster illumination is accomplished by
dimmable incandescent back lighting, which illumi-
nates the gauges for visibility when the exterior
lighting is turned on. Each of the incandescent bulbs
is secured by an integral bulb holder to the electronic
circuit board from the back of the cluster housing.
The incandescent bulb/bulb holder units are available
for service replacement.
Hard wired circuitry connects the EMIC to the
electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired cir-
cuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system
and to the EMIC 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.
The EMIC modules for this model are serviced only
as complete units. The EMIC module cannot be
adjusted or repaired. If a gauge, an LED indicator,
the VFD, the electronic circuit board, the circuit
board hardware, the cluster overlay, or the EMIC
housing are damaged or faulty, the entire EMIC mod-
ule must be replaced. The cluster lens, hood and
mask unit and the individual incandescent lamp
bulbs with holders are available for service replace-
ment.

COMBINATION FLASHER
DESCRIPTION
The combination flasher for this model is integral
to the hazard switch located in the center of the
instrument panel, just above the radio. The combina-
tion flasher is a smart relay that functions as both
the turn signal system and the hazard warning sys-
tem flasher. The combination flasher contains active
electronic Integrated Circuitry (IC) elements. This
flasher is designed to handle the current flow
requirements of the factory-installed lighting. If sup-
plemental lighting is added to the turn signal lamp
circuits, such as when towing a trailer with lights,
the combination flasher will automatically try to
compensate to keep the flash rate the same.
The combination flasher cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, the hazard switch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The combination flasher has the following inputs and
outputs: fused B(+), fused ignition switch output, right
turn signal sense, left turn signal sense, and one output
each for the right and left turn signal circuits. The com-
bination flasher also receives an internal input through
the closed contacts of the hazard switch and, on vehicles
equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft Security Sys-
tem (VTSS), the flasher receives an input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) in order to flash the turn signal
lamps as an optical alert feature of that system. Con-

HAZARD SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The hazard switch is integral to the hazard switch
module, which is secured near the center of instrument
panel just above the radio (Fig. 21). Only the hazard
switch button is visible through a dedicated, round, bev-
eled opening on the outer surface of the instrument
panel between the two center panel outlets of the heater
and air conditioning system. A red, stencil-like Interna-
tional Control and Display Symbol icon for ªHazard
Warningº identifies the hazard switch button. On the
opposite end of the black, molded plastic hazard switch
module housing from the switch button is an integral
connector receptacle and a stamped steel mounting
bracket with two latch feature tabs that extend down-
ward, while a short dowel-like alignment pin is integral
to each side of the housing just below the switch button.
The switch module is connected to the vehicle electrical
system through a dedicated take out and connector of
the instrument panel wire harness. Within the hazard
switch module housing is the hazard switch circuitry
and an electronic circuit board with the integral combi-
nation flasher circuitry. The electronic combination
flasher circuitry performs both the hazard flasher and
turn signal flasher functions.
The hazard switch module cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The hazard switch button is slightly recessed in the
instrument panel when the switch is in the Off position,
and latches at a position that is flush with the outer
surface of the instrument panel when in the On posi-tion. The hazard switch module produces an audible
clicking sound that emulates the sound of a conven-
tional flasher whenever the turn signals or the hazard
warning system are activated. The hazard switch mod-
ule receives battery current on a fused B(+) circuit from
a fuse in the Junction Block (JB) at all times for oper-
ation of the hazard warning, and on a fused ignition
switch output (run) circuit from another fuse in the JB
whenever the ignition switch is in the On position for
operation of the turn signals. The module receives a
path to ground through a splice block located in the
instrument panel wire harness with an eyelet terminal
connector that is secured by a nut to a ground stud on
the driver side instrument panel end bracket near the
JB. Inputs to and outputs from the hazard switch mod-
ule include:
²Panel Lamps Dimmer Input- A non-service-
able incandescent bulb soldered onto the hazard
switch module circuit board provides illumination of
the switch button when the exterior lighting is
turned On through an input received on the fused
panel lamps dimmer switch signal circuit. However,
this bulb flashes on and off at full intensity whenever
the hazard switch button is in the On position,
regardless of the status of the exterior lighting.
²Hazard Switch Input- The combination
flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module receives
an internal ground input from the hazard switch to
request hazard flasher operation.
²Multi-Function Switch Input- The combina-
tion flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module
receives separate ground inputs from the turn signal
switch circuitry of the multi-function switch on right
and left turn switch sense circuits to request right or
left turn signal flasher operation.
²Body Control Module Input- The Body Con-
trol Module (BCM) can request hazard flasher opera-
tion by providing a ground path to the combination
flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module through
a hazard lamp control circuit.
²Turn Signal Output- The combination flasher
circuitry within the hazard switch module responds
to the flasher request inputs by energizing and
de-energizing two miniature relays on the module
circuit board. These relays control the switch output
through the right and left turn signal circuits. One
relay controls the right lamps, while the other con-
trols the left.
Because of active electronic elements within the
hazard switch module, it cannot be tested with con-
ventional automotive electrical test equipment. If the
hazard switch module is believed to be faulty, replace
the switch with a known good unit to confirm system
operation.

path to the switches using another internal driver
through the courtesy lamp load shed circuit. The
BCM provides a battery saver (load shedding) feature
for all courtesy lamps, which will automatically turn
these lamps off if they are left on for more than
about eight minutes with the ignition switch in the
Off position.
PANEL LAMPS DIMMER CIRCUIT The panel
lamps dimmer circuit includes the ElectroMechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC), heater-air conditioner
control, hazard switch and, depending upon the
selected vehicle options, ash receiver, and automatic
transmission range indicator illumination lamps. All
lamps in the panel lamps dimmer circuit are pro-
vided a path to ground at all times through a hard
wired ground circuit. These lamps illuminate based
upon inputs to the Body Control Module (BCM) from
the exterior lighting control knob and the interior
lighting control ring on the left (lighting) control
stalk of the multi-function switch. The control knob
on the left control stalk of the multi-function switch
selects the exterior lights, while the control ring
selects the panel lamps intensity (dimming) level.
When the exterior lighting is turned On, the BCM
energizes the park lamp relay and provides an elec-
tronic dimming level message to the ElectroMechani-
cal Instrument Cluster (EMIC), the radio, and the
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus. The energized park lamp relay provides a hard
wired battery current signal input to the EMIC on
the park lamp relay output circuit. The EMIC
responds to these inputs by supplying a 12-volt Pulse
Width Modulated (PWM) output to all of the incan-
descent lamps in the panel lamps dimmer circuit
over the fused panel lamps dimmer switch signal cir-
cuit. This shared PWM output synchronizes the
selected illumination intensity level of all of the
incandescent lamps in the panel lamps dimmer cir-
cuit.
The EMIC and the radio each use the electronic
dimming level message from the BCM to control and
synchronize the illumination intensity of their own
Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD), while the CMTC
uses the dimming level message to control the illumi-
nation intensity of both its VFD and its incandescent
lighting. In addition, when the control ring on the
left (lighting) control stalk of the multi-function
switch is moved to the Parade Mode detent position,
all of the VFDs are illuminated at their full intensity
levels for increased visibility when the vehicle is
driven during daylight hours with the exterior lights
turned On.DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - LAMPS/LIGHTING
- INTERIOR
The hard wired circuits and components of the
interior lighting system may be diagnosed and tested
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures.
However, conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the Body Control
Module (BCM), the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC), or the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The most
reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the BCM, the EMIC, and the PCI data bus network
inputs and outputs related to the various interior
lighting systems requires the use of a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
When diagnosing the interior lighting circuits,
remember that high generator output can burn out
bulbs rapidly and repeatedly; and, that dim or flick-
ering bulbs can be caused by low generator output or
poor battery condition. If one of these symptoms is a
problem on the vehicle being diagnosed, be certain to
diagnose and repair the battery and charging system
as required. Also keep in mind that a good ground is
necessary for proper lighting operation. If a lighting
problem is being diagnosed that involves multiple
symptoms, systems, or components the problem can
often be traced to a loose, corroded, or open ground.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropri-
ate 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.

UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
On some KJ models a Universal Transmitter trans-
ceiver is standard factory-installed equipment. The
universal transmitter transceiver is integral to the
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC), which is
located in the overhead console. The only visible com-
ponent of the universal transmitter are the three
transmitter push buttons (Fig. 7) centered between
the four CMTC push buttons located just rearward of
the CMTC display screen in the overhead console.
The three universal transmitter push buttons are
identified with one, two or three light indicators so
that they be easily identified by sight or by feel.
Each of the three universal transmitter push but-
tons controls an independent radio transmitter chan-
nel. Each of these three channels can be trained totransmit a different radio frequency signal for the
remote operation of garage door openers, motorized
gate openers, home or office lighting, security sys-
tems or just about any other device that can be
equipped with a radio receiver in the 286 to 399
MegaHertz (MHz) frequency range for remote opera-
tion. The universal transmitter is capable of operat-
ing systems using either rolling code or non-rolling
code technology.
The CMTC module displays messages and a small
house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots corre-
sponding to the three transmitter buttons to indicate
the status of the Universal Transmitter.
The Universal Transmitter cannot be repaired, and
is available for service only as a unit with the CMTC
module. This unit includes the push button switches
and the plastic module and display lens. If any of
these components is faulty or damaged, the complete
CMTC module must be replaced.
OPERATION
The universal transmitter operates on a non-
switched source of battery current so the unit will
remain functional, regardless of the ignition switch
position. For more information on the features, pro-
gramming procedures and operation of the universal
transmitter, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - UNIVERSAL
TRANSMITTER
If the Universal Transmitter is inoperative, but the
Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) is operating
normally, see the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for instructions on training the universal trans-
mitter. Retrain the universal transmitter with a
known good transmitter as instructed in the owner's
manual and test the universal transmitter operation
again. If the unit is still inoperative, replace the
faulty universal transmitter and CMTC module as a
unit. If both the universal transmitter and the CMTC
module are inoperative, refer toDiagnosis and
Testing the Compass Mini-Trip Computerin this
section for further diagnosis. For complete circuit
diagrams, refer toOverhead Consolein Wiring
Diagrams.

are closed and the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The rolling door lock feature can be disabled if
desired.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-
ences.
The power lock system for this vehicle can also be
operated remotely using the available Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) system radio frequency transmit-
ters, if equipped.
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.
For proper 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.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is an available factory-installed
option on this model. The RKE system allows the use
of a remote battery-powered radio transmitter to sig-
nal the Body Control Module (BCM) to actuate the
power lock system. The RKE receiver operates on
non-switched battery current through a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB), so that the system remains
operational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The RKE transmitters are also equipped with a
Panic button. If the Panic button on the RKE trans-
mitter 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. A vehicle speed of about 25.7 kilome-
ters-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.
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.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several
optional electronic features to suit individual prefer-ences. Customer programmable feature options
affecting the RKE system include:
²Remote Unlock Sequence- Allows the option
of having only the driver side front door unlock when
the RKE transmitter Unlock button is depressed the
first time. The remaining doors and the tailgate
unlock when the button is depressed a second time
within 5 seconds of the first unlock press. Another
option is having all doors and the tailgate unlock
upon the first depression of the RKE transmitter
Unlock button.
²Sound Horn on Lock- Allows the option of
having the horn sound a short chirp as an audible
verification that the RKE system received a valid
Lock request from the RKE transmitter, or having no
audible verification.
²Flash Lights with Lock and Unlock- Allows
the option of having the lights flash as an optical ver-
ification that the RKE system received a valid Lock
request or Unlock request from the RKE transmitter,
or having no optical verification.
²Programming Additional Transmitters-
Allows up to four transmitter vehicle access codes to
be stored in the receiver memory.
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. 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.
TAILGATE / FLIP-UP GLASS POWER RELEASE
SYSTEM
A power operated tailgate / flip-up glass release
system is standard factory installed equipment on
this model. The entire system is controlled by the
Body Control Module (BCM). The tailgate / flip-up
glass power release system allows the flip-up glass
latch to be released electrically by actuating a switch
located integral to the outside tailgate handle. By
pulling the handle to the first detent or turning the
key cylinder to unlock, the flip-up glass will open.
Pulling the handle to the second detent will allow the
tailgate to open.
The tailgate / flip-up glass release system operates
on non-switched battery current supplied through a
fuse in the junction block so that the system remains
functional, regardless of the ignition switch position.
However, the BCM prevents the flip-up glass latch
from being actuated when the tailgate latch is
locked.
