speaker is installed on each end of the instrument
panel top pad. One 16.5 centimeter (6.5 inch) Pre-
mium woofer is located in each front door. There is
also one full-range 16.5 centimeter (6.5 inch) diame-
ter Premium full-range speaker located in each rear
door. The premium speaker system also includes a
power amplifier mounted to each front door speaker.
The total available power of the premium speaker
system is about 160 watts.
OPERATION

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.

COMMUNICATION
DESCRIPTION
The DaimlerChrysler Programmable Communica-
tion Interface (PCI) data bus system is a single wire
multiplex system used for vehicle communications on
many DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles. Multi-
plexing is a system that enables the transmission of
several messages over a single channel or circuit. All
DaimlerChrysler vehicles use this principle for com-
munication between various microprocessor-based
electronic control modules. The PCI data bus exceeds
the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J1850
Standard for Class B Multiplexing.
Many of the electronic control modules in a vehicle
require information from the same sensing device. In
the past, if information from one sensing device was
required by several controllers, a wire from each con-
troller needed to be connected in parallel to that sen-
sor. In addition, each controller utilizing analog
sensors required an Analog/Digital (A/D) converter in
order to9read9these sensor inputs. Multiplexing
reduces wire harness complexity, sensor current
loads and controller hardware because each sensing
device is connected to only one controller, which
reads and distributes the sensor information to the
other controllers over the data bus. Also, because
each controller on the data bus can access the con-
troller sensor inputs to every other controller on the
data bus, more function and feature capabilities are
possible.
In addition to reducing wire harness complexity,
component sensor current loads and controller hard-
ware, multiplexing offers a diagnostic advantage. A
multiplex system allows the information flowing
between controllers to be monitored using a diagnos-
tic scan tool. The DaimlerChrysler system allows an
electronic control module to broadcast message data
out onto the bus where all other electronic control
modules can9hear9the messages that are being sent.
When a module hears a message on the data bus
that it requires, it relays that message to its micro-
processor. Each module ignores the messages on the
data bus that are being sent to other electronic con-
trol modules.
OPERATION
Data exchange between modules is achieved by
serial transmission of encoded data over a single wire
broadcast network. The wire colors used for the PCI
data bus circuits are yellow with a violet tracer, or
violet with a yellow tracer, depending upon the appli-
cation. The PCI data bus messages are carried over
the bus in the form of Variable Pulse Width Modu-
lated (VPWM) signals. The PCI data bus speed is an
average 10.4 Kilo-bits per second (Kbps). By compar-

OPERATION - 5 VOLT SUPPLIES
Primary 5±volt supply:
²supplies the required 5 volt power source to the
Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.
²supplies the required 5 volt power source to the
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor.
²supplies a reference voltage for the Manifold

OPERATION - IGNITION CIRCUIT SENSE
The ignition circuit sense input tells the PCM the
ignition switch has energized the ignition circuit.
Battery voltage is also supplied to the PCM
through the ignition switch when the ignition is in
the RUN or START position. This is referred to as
the9ignition sense9circuit and is used to9wake up9
the PCM. Voltage on the ignition input can be as low
as 6 volts and the PCM will still function. Voltage is
supplied to this circuit to power the PCM's 8-volt reg-
ulator and to allow the PCM to perform fuel, ignition
and emissions control functions.

indicator on and off. If the SKIS indicator flashes
upon ignition On or stays on solid after the bulb test,
it signifies a SKIS fault. If the SKIM detects a sys-
tem malfunction and/or the SKIS has become inoper-
ative, the SKIS indicator will stay on solid. If the
SKIM detects an invalid key or if a key transponder-
related fault exists, the SKIS indicator will flash. If
the vehicle is equipped with the Customer Learn
transponder programming feature, the SKIM will
also send messages to the EMIC to flash the SKIS
indicator and to generate a single audible chime tone
whenever the Customer Learn programming mode is
being utilized. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY - STANDARD PROCEDURE -
SENTRY KEY TRANSPONDER PROGRAMMING).
The SKIS performs a self-test each time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the On position, and will
store fault information in the form of Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTC's) in SKIM memory if a system
malfunction is detected. The SKIM can be diagnosed,
and any stored DTC's can be retrieved using a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL
MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) is located
in the engine compartment on the right (passenger)
side and is mounted to the inner fender (Fig. 12).
OPERATION
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) is the
controlling unit for all electronic operations of the
transmission. The TCM receives information regard-
ing vehicle operation from both direct and indirect
inputs, and selects the operational mode of the trans-
mission. Direct inputs are hardwired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs originate
from other components/modules, and are shared with
the TCM via the vehicle communication bus.
Some examples ofdirect inputsto the TCM are:
²Battery (B+) voltage
²Ignition ªONº voltage
²Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+)
²Throttle Position Sensor
²Crankshaft Position Sensor
²Transmission Range Sensor
²Pressure Switches
²Transmission Temperature Sensor
²Input Shaft Speed Sensor
