voltage is supplied to one side of the indicator bulb. A
ground path for the bulb is provided by 3 switches.
The bulb will light when:
²the brake warning switch is closed (indicating un-
equal brake system hydraulic pressures possibly due
to brake fluid leakage)
²the ignition switch is in the START position (bulb
test)
²the parking brake switch is closed (parking brake
is applied).
Refer to Group 5 - Brakes for more information.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE INDICATOR LAMP
This lamp lights when the transfer case is engaged
in the 4H or 4L position. Voltage is supplied to one
side of the indicator bulb. A switch on the front axle
disconnect housing is connected to the other side of
the indicator bulb. When the switch is closed, a path
to ground is provided and the indicator bulb lights.
HEADLAMP HIGH BEAM INDICATOR LAMP
The high beam indicator lamp is controlled by the
headlamp dimmer switch. One side of the indicator
bulb is grounded at all times. The other side of the
bulb receives battery feed through the contacts of the
dimmer switch when the turn signal switch lever is
actuated to turn the headlamp high beams on. Refer
to Group 8L - Lamps for more information.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP
The CHECK ENGINE or Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) lights each time the ignition switch is
turned ON, and stays on for 3 seconds as a bulb test.
If the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) receives an
incorrect signal or no signal from certain fuel or
emission system related circuits or components, the
lamp is turned on. This will indicate that the PCM
has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in
electronic memory for a circuit or component mal-
function. Refer to Group 14 - Fuel System for more
information.
SEAT BELT REMINDER LAMP
The seat belt reminder lamp lights for 4 to 8 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is turned to the ON po-sition. A timer in the chime/buzzer module controls
ignition-switched battery feed to the lamp. Refer to
Group 8U - Chime/Buzzer Warning Systems for more
information.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LAMPS
The left and right turn signal indicator lamps are
controlled by the turn signal and hazard warning
switches. One side of the bulb for each lamp is
grounded at all times. The other side of the bulb re-
ceives battery feed through the contacts of the turn
signal switch, when the turn signal lever or hazard
warning button are actuated. Refer to Group 8J -
Turn Signal and Hazard Warning Systems for more
information.
UPSHIFT INDICATOR LAMP
Vehicles equipped with manual transmissions have
an optional upshift indicator lamp. Ground feed for
the lamp is switched by the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM). The lamp lights to indicate when the
driver should shift to the next highest gear for best
fuel economy. The PCM will turn the lamp off after 3
to 5 seconds if the upshift is not performed. The lamp
will remain off until the vehicle stops accelerating
and is brought back to the range of lamp operation,
or until the transmission is shifted into another gear.
The indicator lamp is normally on when the igni-
tion switch is turned ON and is turned off when the
engine is started. The lamp will be turned on during
vehicle operation according to engine speed and load.
CLUSTER ILLUMINATION LAMPS
All cluster illumination lamps receive battery feed
from the instrument lamps fuse in the fuseblock
module through the panel dimmer switch. When the
park or headlamps are on, the cluster illumination
lamps light. Illumination brightness can be adjusted
by rotating the panel dimmer thumb-wheel, which is
next to the headlamp switch.

DIAGNOSIS
GAUGES
If an individual gauge is inoperative, see the diag-
nostic procedure under the heading for that gauge. If
more than one gauge in the main cluster or gauge
package cluster is inoperative, perform the following:
(1) Check fuse 9 in the fuseblock module. If OK, go
to next step. If not OK, replace fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at fuse 9 with igni-
tion switch in ON position. If OK, go to next step. If
not OK, repair open in circuit from ignition switch
and/or refer to Group 8D - Ignition Systems for test-
ing of ignition switch.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable. Remove the affected instrument clus-
ter bezel and cluster assembly. Disconnect the cluster
connector.
(4) Connect battery negative cable. Turn ignition
switch to ON. If problem is in main cluster, check for
battery voltage at cavity 3 and cavity 19 of main
cluster connector. If problem is in gauge package

the cluster printed circuit. If not OK, repair open in
circuit as required.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
gauge condition. If the problem being diagnosed is re-
lated to gauge accuracy, be certain to confirm that
problem is with gauge and not with cooling system
performance. Actual engine coolant temperature
should be checked with a test gauge or thermometer
and compared to gauge readings before you proceed
with gauge diagnosis. Refer to Group 7 - Cooling Sys-
tem for more information.
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON. Disconnect coolant

GENERAL INFORMATION
Following are general descriptions of major compo-
nents used in XJ (Cherokee)/YJ (Wrangler) audio sys-
tems. Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for
complete circuit descriptions and diagrams.
RADIOS
Radio options for the XJ and YJ models include an
AM/FM stereo or an AM/FM stereo/cassette receiver.
Both units are Electronically-Tuned Radios (ETR)
and include a clock function. For more information
on radio features, setting procedures, and control
functions refer to the owner's manual.
IN-LINE FUSE
Each radio receives fused battery feed when the ig-
nition switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY position.
There is an additional in-line fuse in the back of the
radio chassis. The in-line fuse (Fig. 1) will blow to
protect the vehicle electrical system in the event of
internal radio failure.
IGNITION-OFF DRAW FUSE
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed when the vehicle is
shipped from the factory. This fuse feeds various ac-
cessories that require current when the ignition
switch is in the OFF position, including the clock and
radio station preset memory functions. The fuse is re-
moved to prevent battery discharge during vehicle
storage.The IOD fuse should be checked if the radio station
preset memory or clock functions are erratic or inop-
erative. The IOD fuse is located in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC). Refer to underside of PDC
cover for IOD fuse identification.
RADIO ILLUMINATION RELAY
All radios are connected to a radio illumination re-
lay. The relay controls the source of battery feed for
radio/clock display illumination.
When the park and headlamp switch is in the OFF
position, the radio illumination relay remains de-en-
ergized. The radio/clock display receives full battery
voltage through the normally closed contacts of the
relay. This results in the radio/clock display being il-
luminated at full brightness for easier visibility in
daylight.
When the park and headlamp switch is in the ON
position, the radio illumination relay coil is ener-
gized. With the relay coil energized, the normally
closed contacts of the relay open, and the normally
open contacts of the relay close. This causes the ra-
dio/clock display to receive battery feed through the
instrument panel dimmer switch. The display illumi-
nation brightness can now be adjusted with other
panel lamps for night visibility.
SPEAKERS
Speaker system options include two, four or six (XJ
only) speaker locations. On XJ model two-speaker
systems, one speaker is located in each front door.
Four-speaker systems add one speaker at each end of
a rear-mounted overhead sound bar. The premium
six-speaker option upgrades all the speakers in the
above locations, and adds one tweeter at each end of
the lower instrument panel.
On YJ model two-speaker systems, one speaker is
located at each end of the instrument panel. Four-
speaker systems add one speaker at each end of a
rear-mounted overhead sound bar.
Fig. 1 In-Line Fuse
JAUDIO SYSTEMS 8F - 1

ANTENNA
All models use a fixed-length stainless steel rod-
type antenna mast, installed at the right front (fend-
er on XJ, cowl side on YJ) of the vehicle. The
antenna mast is connected to the center wire of the
coaxial antenna cable and is not grounded to any
part of the vehicle.
To eliminate static, the antenna base must have a
good ground. The coaxial antenna cable shield (the
outer wire mesh of the cable) is grounded to the an-
tenna base and the radio chassis.
The factory installed ETRs automatically compen-
sate for radio antenna trim. Therefore, no antenna
trimmer adjustment is required or possible when re-
placing the receiver or the antenna.
RADIO NOISE SUPPRESSION
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and Electro-
Magnetic Interference (EMI) noise suppression is ac-
complished primarily through circuitry internal to
the radio receivers. These internal suppression de-
vices are only serviced as a part of the radio receiver.External suppression devices that are serviceable
and should be checked in the case of RFI or EMI
noise complaints include the following:
²radio antenna base ground
²engine-to-body ground strap
²resistor-type spark plugs
²radio suppression-type secondary ignition wiring.
In addition, if the source of RFI or EMI noise is
identified as a component on the vehicle (i.e.:genera-
tor, blower motor, etc.), the ground path for that com-
ponent should be checked. If excessive resistance is
found in that circuit, repair as required before con-
sidering any component replacement.
Fleet vehicles are available with an extra-cost RFI-
suppressed Powertrain Control Module (PCM). This
unit reduces interference generated by the PCM on
some radio frequencies used in two-way radio com-
munications. However, this unit will not resolve com-
plaints of RFI in the commercial AM or FM radio
frequency ranges.
DIAGNOSIS
RADIO
CAUTION: Do not operate the radio with speaker
leads detached since damage to the transistors
may result.
(1) Check fuse 2 in fuseblock module and fuse in
back of radio chassis. If OK, go to next step. If not
OK, replace fuse.
(2) Turn ignition switch to ON position. Check for
battery voltage at fuse 2. If OK, go to next step. If
not OK, repair circuit to ignition switch as required.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Discon-
nect battery negative cable. Remove instrument clus-
ter bezel. Remove radio, but do not unplug any
connections. Check for continuity between the radio
chassis and a good ground. There should be continu-
ity. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair radio
ground circuit as required.
(4) Connect battery negative cable. Turn ignition
switch to ON position. See Radio Connections chart.
Check for battery voltage at cavity 3 of radio connec-
tor. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to
fuse 2 as required.
(5) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Check for
battery voltage at cavity 4 of radio connector. If OK,
replace radio. If not OK, repair circuit to IOD fuse in
PDC as required.
SPEAKERS
CAUTION: Do not operate the radio with speaker
leads detached since damage to the transistors
may result.
(1) Turn radio on and adjust balance and fader
controls to check performance of each individual
speaker. Note the speaker locations that are not per-
forming correctly. Go to next step.
(2) Turn radio off. Disconnect battery negative ca-
ble. Remove instrument cluster bezel and remove ra-
dio. See Radio Connections chart. Check both the
speaker feed and return cavities at radio for continu-
ity to a good ground. There should be no continuity.
If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair wiring cir-
cuit as required.
(3) Check resistance between speaker feed and re-
turn cavities. Meter should read between 3 and 8
ohms (speaker impedance). If OK, see diagnosis for
Radio. If not OK, go to next step.
(4) Unplug speaker wiring connector. Check for
continuity between speaker feed cavity at radio and
at speaker. Repeat check between speaker return
cavity at radio and at speaker. If OK, replace
speaker. If not OK, repair wiring circuit as required.

IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POS-
SIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Inspect fuses (F8 and F16 in PDC on YJ)(11 in
fuseblock module and F14 in PDC on XJ). Replace
fuses, as required.
(2) Remove the horn relay (in the PDC on YJ)(in
the relay center on XJ). See Horn Relay Connec-
tions-XJ (Fig. 1) or Horn Relay Connections-YJ (Fig.
2) and perform the following tests.
²The common feed terminal (30) is connected to
battery voltage and should be hot at all times. If bat-
tery voltage is not present at relay cavity 30, check
circuit to fuse (F16 on YJ)(11 on XJ). Repair as re-
quired.
²The normally closed terminal (87A) is connected to
terminal 30 in the de-energized position, but is not
used for this application.
²The normally open terminal (87) is connected to
the common feed terminal (30) in the energized posi-
tion. This terminal supplies battery voltage to the
horn. There should be continuity between relay cav-
ity 87 and the horn terminal at all times. If not, re-
pair wiring or connections as required.
²The coil battery terminal (86) is connected to the
electromagnet in the relay, and battery voltage
should be present at all times. If battery voltage is
not present at relay cavity 86, check circuit to fuse
(F16 on YJ)(11 on XJ). Repair as required.
²The coil ground terminal (85) is connected to the
electromagnet in the relay. It is grounded when the
horn switch is depressed. Check for continuity to
ground at relay cavity 85 with the horn switch de-
pressed. If no continuity is found with horn switch
depressed or, if continuity is found with horn switch
released, repair horn switch or wiring as required.
See Horn Switch Remove/Install in this group for ser-
vice procedures.
If all relay connections check OK, proceed to next
step.
(3) With the horn relay still removed, check the
horn relay by performing the following tests.
²A relay in the de-energized position should have
continuity between terminal 87A and terminal 30,
and no continuity between terminal 87 and terminal
30.
²Resistance value between terminals 85 and 86
(electromagnet) is 7565 ohms.²Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86. There
should now be continuity between terminal 87 and
terminal 30.
If relay fails any of the above tests, replace faulty
relay. If relay checks OK, reinstall and proceed to
next step.
(4) Disconnect wiring at horn terminal. Depress
horn switch. There should be battery voltage at the
horn wiring connector. If not, repair wiring to relay.
If OK, proceed to next step.
(5) Measure the resistance between the horn
bracket and a good chassis ground. The meter should
read zero ohms. If not, clean and tighten ground con-
nection between horn mounting screw and bracket. If
OK, replace faulty horn(s).

GENERAL INFORMATION
Following are general descriptions of the major
components in the XJ (Cherokee)/YJ (Wrangler)
model turn signal and hazard warning systems. Refer
to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for complete circuit
descriptions and diagrams.
TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM
With the ignition switch in the ON or ACCESSORY
position and the turn signal switch lever (YJ) or
multi-function switch control lever (XJ) moved up
(right turn) or down (left turn), the turn signal sys-
tem is activated.
When the turn signal system is activated, the se-
lected (right or left) turn signal indicator lamp, front
park/turn signal lamp and rear tail/stop/turn signal
lamp bulb filaments will flash. With the headlamp
switch in the OFF position, the turn and front side
marker lamps flash in unison. With the headlamp
switch in the ON position, the turn and front side
marker lamps flash alternately.
HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM
The hazard warning is activated by a switch button
located below the ignition lock cylinder (YJ) or on the
top of the steering column (XJ) between the steering
wheel and the instrument panel. The hazard warning
flasher (YJ) or combination flasher (XJ) receives bat-
tery feed at all times, and the system is functional
regardless of ignition switch position. The hazard
warning switch button is identified with a double
triangle. On YJ models, push the switch button in to
activate the hazard warning system and pull the
button out to turn system off. On XJ models, push in
on the switch button to latch the switch and activate
the hazard warning system, and push in on the
switch button again to unlatch the switch and turn
the system off.
When the hazard warning system is activated, all
(right and left) turn signal indicator, front park/turn
signal lamp and rear tail/stop/turn signal lamp bulb
filaments will flash.
TURN SIGNAL FLASHER (YJ ONLY)
The turn signal flasher is located in the fuseblock
module. It contains one fixed contact point and one
contact point attached to a flexible bimetal arm. The
contact points are normally closed. When a turn sig-
nal is activated, current flows through the flasher. As
current flows through the bimetal arm it heats and
flexes to pull the contact points open, stopping cur-
rent flow. As the bimetal arm cools it straightens,
until the contact points close and the cycle repeats.
The standard flasher is designed to handle the cur-
rent flow requirements of the factory installed light-
ing. If supplemental lighting is added to the turn
signal circuits such as when towing a trailer with
lights, the current flow through the flasher increases.
This causes the flash rate to increase. It is recom-
mended that the standard flasher be replaced with a
heavy-duty (hazard warning) flasher when supple-
mental lighting is added.
However, when a turn signal bulb fails with a stan-
dard flasher, the remaining bulbs in that circuit will
light, but not flash. This will give the driver an indi-
cation to check the turn signal bulbs. Because a
heavy-duty flasher has different internal circuitry, a
failed bulb will not prevent the remaining bulbs in
the circuit from flashing. Therefore, it is recom-
mended that an occasional visual inspection of exte-
rior turn signal lamp operation be performed when a
heavy-duty flasher is installed.
HAZARD WARNING FLASHER (YJ ONLY)
The hazard warning flasher is located in the fuse-
block module. The hazard warning flasher contains
two normally open contact points mounted to two
flexible arms. A bimetal strip is attached between the
two arms. When the hazard warning is activated,
current flows through the flasher. As the current
flows through the bimetal strip it heats and pulls the
flexible arms together until the contact points close,

DIAGNOSIS
When diagnosing the turn signal or hazard warning
circuits, remember that high generator output can
burn out bulbs rapidly and repeatedly. If this is a
problem on the vehicle being diagnosed, refer to
Group 8A - Battery/Starting/Charging Systems Diag-
nostics to test charging system.
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR-
BAG, REFER TO GROUP 8M - RESTRAINT SYS-
TEMS BEFORE ATTEMPTING STEERING WHEEL
COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE
TO TAKE PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT
IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POS-
SIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM - XJ
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON position. Actuate the
turn signal lever or hazard warning button. Observe
the turn indicator lamp(s) in the instrument cluster.
If the flash rate is very high, check for a turn signal
bulb that is not lit. Replace that bulb or repair cir-
cuits to that lamp, as required. Test operation. If turn
indicator does not light, continue to next step.
(2) Remove and inspect fuse 8 (turn signals) in
fuseblock module, or fuse F13 (hazard warning) in the
Power Distribution Center. Replace fuse, if required.
(3) Remove combination flasher from relay center
and replace with a known good unit. Test operation of
turn signal and hazard warning systems. If OK, re-place faulty combination flasher. If not OK, remove
test flasher and go to next step.
(4) With ignition switch in ON position, check for
battery voltage at cavity for flasher terminal J1 (Fig.
2). If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to
ignition switch as required.
(5) With ignition switch in OFF position, check for
battery voltage at cavity for flasher terminal J2. If
OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to Power
Distribution Center as required.
(6) With ignition switch in OFF position, check for
continuity between cavity for flasher terminal J5 and
a good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go
to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to ground as
required.
(7) Locate the multi-function switch connector. See
Multi-Function Switch, in this group. Check for conti-
nuity between cavity for flasher terminal J3 and cav-
ity 13 of the multi-function switch connector. There
should be continuity. If OK, go to next step. If not OK,
repair open circuit as required.
(8) Check for continuity between cavity for flasher
terminal J4 and cavity 17 of the multi-function switch
connector. There should be continuity. If OK, test
multi-function switch. If not OK, repair open circuit
as required.
TURN SIGNAL SYSTEM - YJ
A turn signal indicator lamp that remains lit (with-
out flashing) is an indication of a burned out exterior
turn signal bulb or faulty exterior lamp circuit. Check
