IGNITION COIL
DESCRIPTION
2.4L
The coil assembly consists of 2 different coils
molded together. The assembly is mounted to the top
of the engine (Fig. 14).
3.7L
The 3.7L V-6 engine uses 6 dedicated, and individ-
ually fired coil for each spark plug (Fig. 15). Each
coil is mounted directly into the cylinder head and
onto the top of each spark plug (Fig. 16).
OPERATION
2.4L
The coil fires two spark plugs simultaneously. One
plug is under compression, the other plug fires on the
exhaust stroke (lost spark). Coil number one fires

cylinders 1 and 4, and coil number two fires cylinders
2 and 3.
The Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay provides battery
voltage to the ignition coil. The PCM provides a
ground contact (circuit) for energizing the coil(s). The
PCM will de-energize the ASD relay if it does not
receive the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft
position sensor inputs.
Base ignition timing is not adjustable.By con-
trolling the coil ground circuit, the PCM is able to set
the base timing and adjust the ignition timing
advance. This is done to meet changing engine oper-
ating conditions.
The ignition coil is not oil filled. The windings are
embedded in an epoxy compound. This provides heat
and vibration resistance that allows the ignition coil
to be mounted on the engine.
Spark plug cables (secondary wires or cables) are
used with the 2.4L engine.
3.7L
Battery voltage is supplied to the 6 ignition coils
from the ASD relay. The Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) opens and closes each ignition coil ground cir-
cuit at a determined time for ignition coil operation.
Base ignition timing is not adjustable.By con-
trolling the coil ground circuit, the PCM is able to set
the base timing and adjust the ignition timing
advance. This is done to meet changing engine oper-
ating conditions.
The ignition coil is not oil filled. The windings are
embedded in an epoxy compound. This provides heat
and vibration resistance that allows the ignition coil
to be mounted on the engine.
Because of coil design, spark plug cables (second-
ary cables) are not used with the 3.7L engine.
REMOVAL
2.4L
(1) Disconnect electrical connector at rear of coil.
(2) Remove all secondary cables from coil.
(3) Remove 4 coil mounting bolts (Fig. 17).
(4) Remove coil from vehicle.
3.7L
An individual ignition coil is used for each spark
plug (Fig. 19). The coil fits into machined holes in the
cylinder head. A mounting stud/nut secures each coil
to the top of the intake manifold (Fig. 18). The bot-
tom of the coil is equipped with a rubber boot to seal
the spark plug to the coil. Inside each rubber boot is
a spring. The spring is used for a mechanical contact
between the coil and the top of the spark plug. These
rubber boots and springs are a permanent part of the
coil and are not serviced separately. An o-ring (Fig.19) is used to seal the coil at the opening into the cyl-
inder head.
(1) Depending on which coil is being removed, the
throttle body air intake tube or intake box may need
to be removed to gain access to coil.

KNOCK SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The 2 knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder
block under the intake manifold. The sensors are
used only with the 3.7L engine.
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used on the 3.7L V-6
engine; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock
sensor detects a knock in one of the cylinders on the
corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). In response, the
PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a
scheduled amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material
which constantly vibrates and sends an input voltage
(signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the
intensity of the crystal's vibration increases, the
knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor
increases with the amplitude of vibration. The PCM
receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input.
If the signal rises above a predetermined level, the
PCM will store that value in memory and retard
ignition timing to reduce engine knock. If the knock
sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM
retards ignition timing for all cylinders. It is not a
selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine
idle conditions. Once the engine speed exceeds a
specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long
term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation
information in its battery-backed RAM. The maxi-
mum authority that long term memory has over tim-
ing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up
to a preset amount under all operating conditions (as
long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at
Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using short
term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing
when engine knock is detected. Short term memory
is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.

SPARK PLUG
DESCRIPTION
Resistor type spark plugs are used.
Spark plug resistance values range from 6,000 to
20,000 ohms (when checked with at least a 1000 volt
spark plug tester).Do not use an ohmmeter to
check the resistance values of the spark plugs.
Inaccurate readings will result.
OPERATION
To prevent possible pre-ignition and/or mechanical
engine damage, the correct type/heat range/number
spark plug must be used.
Always use the recommended torque when tighten-
ing spark plugs. This is especially true when plugs
are equipped with tapered seats. Incorrect torque can
distort the spark plug and change plug gap. It can
also pull the plug threads and do possible damage to
both the spark plug and the cylinder head.
Remove the spark plugs and examine them for
burned electrodes and fouled, cracked or broken por-
celain insulators. Keep plugs arranged in the order
in which they were removed from the engine. A sin-

sure the plugs do not drop into the plug wells as elec-
trodes can be damaged.
Always tighten spark plugs to the specified torque.
Over tightening can cause distortion resulting in a
change in the spark plug gap or a cracked porcelain
insulator.
(1) Start the spark plug into the cylinder head by
hand to avoid cross threading.
(2) Tighten spark plugs. Refer to torque specifica-
tions.
(3) Before installing coil(s), check condition of coil
o-ring and replace as necessary. To aid in coil instal-
lation, apply silicone to coil o-ring.
(4) Install ignition coil(s). Refer to Ignition Coil
Removal/Installation.
IGNITION COIL CAPACITOR
DESCRIPTION
One coil capacitor is used. It is located in the
engine compartment and attached (clipped) to a wir-
ing trough near the brake power booster.
OPERATION
The coil capacitor(s) help dampen the amount of
conducted electrical noise to the camshaft position
sensor, crankshaft position sensor, and throttle posi-
tion sensor. This noise is generated on the 12V sup-
ply wire to the ignition coils and fuel injectors.
REMOVAL
The coil capacitor is located in the engine compart-
ment and is attached (clipped) to a wiring harness
trough near the brake power booster (graphic not
available).
(1) Unclip capacitor from wiring harness trough.
(2) Disconnect electrical connector at capacitor.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect electrical connector to coil capacitor.
(2) Position capacitor into v-clip on wiring harness
trough.

fused panel lamps dimmer switch signal circuit. The
cluster illumination lamps are grounded at all times.
In addition, the control ring on the left (lighting)
control stalk of the multi-function switch has a
Parade Mode position to provide a parade mode. The
BCM monitors the request for this mode from the
multi-function switch, then sends an electronic dim-
ming level message to the EMIC over the PCI data
bus to illuminate all VFDs in the vehicle at full
intensity for easier visibility when driving in daylight
with the exterior lighting turned On.
The hard wired cluster illumination lamp circuits
may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic
methods. However, proper testing of the PWM output
of the EMIC and the electronic dimming level mes-
sages sent by the BCM over the PCI data bus
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
CHIME WARNING SERVICE The EMIC is pro-
grammed to provide chime service when certain indi-
cators are illuminated. When the programmed
conditions are met, the EMIC generates an electronic
chime tone through its integral chime tone generator.
In addition, the EMIC is programmed to provide
chime service for other electronic modules in the
vehicle when it receives the proper electronic chime
request messages over the PCI data bus. Upon
receiving the proper chime request message, the
EMIC activates the integral chime tone generator to
provide the audible chime tone to the vehicle opera-
tor. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/CHIME/BUZZER -
OPERATION). Proper testing of the EMIC and the
PCI data bus chime request message functions
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

The instrument cluster actuator test will put the
instrument cluster into its self-diagnostic mode. In
this mode the instrument cluster can perform a self-
diagnostic test that will confirm that the instrument
cluster circuitry, the gauges, the PCI data bus mes-
sage controlled indicator lamps, and the chime tone
generator are capable of operating as designed. Dur-
ing the actuator test the instrument cluster circuitry
will sound the chime tone generator, position each of
the gauge needles at various specified calibration
points, illuminate each of the segments in the Vacu-um-Fluorescent Display (VFD), and turn all of the
PCI data bus message-controlled indicators on and
off again.
Successful completion of the actuator test will con-
firm that the instrument cluster is operational. How-
ever, there may still be a problem with the PCI data
bus, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the Air-
bag Control Module (ACM), the Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer Module (SKIM), or the inputs to one of these
electronic control modules. Use a DRBIIItscan tool
to diagnose these components. Refer to the appropri-
ate diagnostic information.
(1) Begin the test with the ignition switch in the
Off position.
(2) Depress the odometer/trip odometer switch but-
ton.
(3) While still holding the odometer/trip odometer
switch button depressed, turn the ignition switch to
the On position, but do not start the engine.
(4) Release the odometer/trip odometer switch but-
ton.
(5) The instrument cluster will automatically
begin the actuator test sequence, as follows:
(a) The cluster will turn on, then off again each
of the PCI data bus message controlled indicators
to confirm the functionality of the indicator and
the cluster control circuitry:
(b) The cluster will sweep the needles for each of
the gauges to several calibration points in sequence
to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the
cluster control circuitry:
(c) The cluster will sequentially step the odome-
ter/trip odometer VFD display from all ones
( 111111 )through all nines (999999) to confirm the
functionality of all VFD segments and their control
circuitry, then display the software version number.
(d) The cluster will generate five (5) chime tones
to confirm the functionality of the chime tone gen-
erator and the chime control circuitry.
(6) The actuator test is now completed. The instru-
ment cluster will automatically exit the self-diagnos-
tic mode and return to normal operation at the
completion of the test, if the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position during the test, or if an engine
rpm message indicating that the engine is running is
received from the PCM over the PCI data bus during
the test.
(7) Go back to Step 1 to repeat the test, if
required.

CHIME SERVICE DIAGNOSIS
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the Chime Service function of the instru-
ment cluster requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
CLUSTER ILLUMINATION DIAGNOSIS
If the problem being diagnosed is a single inopera-
tive illumination lamp, be certain that the bulb and
bulb holder unit are properly installed in the instru-
ment cluster electronic circuit board. If no installa-
tion problems are found replace the faulty bulb and
bulb holder unit. If all of the cluster illumination
lamps are inoperative, the most reliable, efficient,

ABS INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
An Antilock Brake System (ABS) indicator is stan-
dard equipment on all instrument clusters. However,
the instrument cluster is programmed to automati-
cally enable this indicator only on vehicles equipped
with the optional antilock brake system. The ABS
indicator is located above the engine temperature
gauge and to the right of the speedometer in the
instrument cluster. The ABS indicator consists of a
stencil-like cutout of the International Control and
Display Symbol icon for ªFailure of Anti-lock Braking
Systemº in the opaque layer of the instrument clus-
ter overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay pre-
vents the indicator from being clearly visible when it
is not illuminated. An amber Light Emitting Diode
(LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the
overlay causes the icon to appear in amber through
the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is
illuminated from behind by the LED, which is sol-
dered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The ABS indicator is serviced as a unit with
the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The ABS indicator gives an indication to the vehi-
cle operator when the ABS system is faulty or inop-
erative. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on
the instrument cluster circuit board based upon clus-
ter programming and electronic messages received by
the cluster from the Controller Antilock Brake (CAB)
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus. The ABS indicator Light Emitting
Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instru-
ment cluster logic circuit, and that logic will only
allow this indicator to operate when the instrument
cluster receives a battery current input on the fused
ignition switch output (run-start) circuit. Therefore,
the LED will always be off when the ignition switch
is in any position except On or Start. The LED only
