Front light JEEP LIBERTY 2002 KJ / 1.G Repair Manual

leveling switch is a resistor multiplexed unit that
provides one of four voltage outputs to the headlamp
leveling motors. The headlamp leveling motors will
move the headlamps to the selected position based
upon the voltage input received from the switch. The
headlamp leveling motors and switch have a path to
ground at all times. The headlamp leveling compo-
nents operate on battery current received through
the fused park lamp relay output circuit so that the
system will only operate when the exterior lighting is
turned on.
PARK LAMPS
The park lamps system includes the Body Control
Module (BCM), a park lamp relay installed in the
Junction Block (JB), and the exterior lighting switch
integral to the left (lighting) control stalk of the
multi-function switch. The front park lamp and side
marker or, if equipped, the front position lamp bulbs
each have a path to ground at all times through their
connections 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 rear
park lamp bulbs and license plate lamp have a path
to ground at all times through their connection to the
rear lighting wire harness from a take out of the rear
body wire harness with an eyelet terminal connector
that is secured by a ground screw to the base of the
right D-pillar behind the quarter trim panel. The
BCM controls the park lamp operation by monitoring
the exterior lighting switch inputs from the multi-
function switch, then energizing or de-energizing the
control coil of the park lamp relay. When the park
lamp relay is energized, it provides battery current
from a fused B(+) fuse in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) through a park lamp relay output cir-
cuit and a separate fuse in the JB through a fused
park lamp relay output circuit to the appropriate
lamp bulb filaments. The BCM provides a battery
saver (load shedding) feature for the park 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.
REAR FOG LAMPS
Rear fog lamps are installed on vehicles manufac-
tured for certain markets where they are required.
The rear fog lamp system includes a premium Body
Control Module (BCM), a rear fog lamp relay
installed in the Junction Block (JB), and a rear fog
lamp switch integral to the left (lighting) control
stalk of the multi-function switch. The rear fog lamps
have a path to ground at all times through their con-
nection to the rear lighting wire harness from a takeout of the rear body wire harness with an eyelet ter-
minal connector that is secured by a ground screw to
the base of the right D-pillar behind the quarter trim
panel. The BCM controls rear fog lamp operation by
monitoring the exterior lighting switch input from
the multi-function switch, then energizing or de-ener-
gizing the rear fog lamp relay control coil; and, by
sending the appropriate electronic message to the
instrument cluster over the Programmable Commu-
nications Interface (PCI) data bus to turn the rear
fog lamp indicator on or off. When the rear fog lamp
relay is energized, it provides battery current from a
fused B(+) fuse in the JB to the rear fog lamps
through the rear fog lamp relay output circuit. The
BCM provides a battery saver (load shedding) feature
for the rear fog lamps, which will turn these lamps
off if they are left on for more than about eight min-
utes with the ignition switch in the Off position.
TURN SIGNAL LAMPS
When the left control stalk of the multi-function
switch is moved up (right turn) or down (left turn),
the turn signal system is activated causing the
selected right or left turn signal indicator, and right
or left turn signal lamps to flash on and off. When
the turn signal system is activated, the circuitry
within the turn signal switch and the hazard switch/
electronic combination flasher unit will repeatedly
energize and de-energize one of two internal relays
that switch battery current from a fused ignition
switch output (run) fuse in the Junction Block (JB) to
the right side or left side turn signal indicators and
turn signal lamps through the right or left turn sig-
nal circuits. The ElectroMechanical Instrument Clus-
ter (EMIC) chime tone generator will generate an
audible turn signal cancel warning each time the
vehicle is driven for a distance of about 3.2 kilome-
ters (about two miles) with a turn signal indicator
flashing. The EMIC uses Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus distance messages
from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and a
hard wired input from the turn signal switch cir-
cuitry of the multi-function switch to determine when
to sound the turn signal cancel warning.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - LAMPS/LIGHTING
- EXTERIOR
The hard wired circuits and components of the
exterior lighting systems may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and proce-
dures. However, conventional diagnostic methods
may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the Body
Control Module (BCM), the ElectroMechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC), the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM), or the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The most

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR (Continued)

reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the BCM, the EMIC, the PCM, and the PCI data bus
network inputs and outputs related to the various
exterior lighting systems requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.
When diagnosing the exterior 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 connectorrepair 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.

BACKUP LAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a manual transmission
have a normally open, spring-loaded plunger type
back-up lamp switch (Fig. 2). The backup lamp
switch is located in a threaded hole on the side of the
manual transmission housing, beneath the floor
panel of the vehicle. The backup lamp switch has a
threaded body and a hex formation near the plunger
end of the switch, and an integral connector recepta-
cle at the opposite end of the switch. When installed,
only the connector receptacle and the hex formation
are visible on the outside of the transmission hous-
ing. Vehicles with an optional electronic automatic
transmission have a Transmission Range Sensor
(TRS) that is used to perform several functions,
including that of the backup lamp switch. The TRS is
described in further detail elsewhere in this service
information. The backup lamp switch cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
entire switch unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The backup lamp switch controls the flow of bat-
tery current to the backup lamp bulbs at the back of
the vehicle through an output on the back-up lamp
feed circuit. The switch plunger is mechanically actu-
ated by the gearshift mechanism within the trans-
mission, which will depress the switch plunger and
close the switch contacts whenever the reverse gear
has been selected. The switch receives battery cur-
rent through a fuse in the Junction Block (JB) on a
fused ignition switch output (run) circuit whenever
the ignition switch is in the On position. A take out
of the engine wire harness connects the backup lamp
switch to the vehicle electrical system. The backup
lamp switch and circuits can be tested using conven-
tional diagnostic tools and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BACKUP LAMP
SWITCH
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle.
(3) Locate and disconnect the engine wire harness
connector for the backup lamp switch from the
switch connector receptacle.
(4) Check for continuity between the two terminal
pins in the backup lamp switch connector receptacle.
(a) With the gear selector lever in the Reverse
position, there should be continuity.
(b) With the gear selector lever in any position
other than Reverse, there should be no continuity.

FRONT FOG LAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The front fog lamp relay is located in the Junction
Block (JB) on the driver side outboard end of the
instrument panel in the passenger compartment of
the vehicle. The front fog lamp relay is a conven-
tional International Standards Organization (ISO)
micro relay (Fig. 11). Relays conforming to the ISO
specifications have common physical dimensions, cur-
rent capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal func-
tions. The relay is contained within a small,
rectangular, molded plastic housing and is connected
to all of the required inputs and outputs by five inte-
gral male spade-type terminals that extend from the
bottom of the relay base.
The front fog lamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The front fog lamp relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the front fog lamps. 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 electromagnetic
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 front fog lamp relay terminals are connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Junction Block (JB). The inputs and
outputs of the front fog lamp relay include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the JB through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the pre-
mium Body Control Module (BCM) through a front
fog lamp relay control circuit. The BCM controls
front fog lamp operation by controlling a ground path
through this circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a fuse in the JB through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) is connected to the front fog lamps
through a front fog lamp relay output circuit and
provides battery current to the front fog lamps when-
ever the relay is energized.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is not connected in this appli-
cation.
The front fog lamp relay can be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FRONT FOG LAMP
RELAY
The front fog lamp relay (Fig. 12) is located in the
Junction Block (JB) under the driver side outboard
end of the instrument panel. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information. The wiring information includes
