DESCRIPTION
When an RKE lock message is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
door locks, the interior lighting is turned off, the horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the park
lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock message is sent to the instrument cluster, the
instrument cluster actuates the driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is enabled) unlock,
the interior lighting is turned on and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed.
When an RKE panic message is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is enabled) unlock, the interior lighting is turned on
and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed. The panic message will also cause the
exterior lamps (including the headlights) to flash, and the horn to sound for about three minutes, or
until a second panic message is sent to the instrument cluster. A vehicle speed of about 25.7
Km/h(15 mph) will also cancel the panic event.
Operation
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted, the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will
retain all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replacing or adding a key fob transmitter
(maximum of 4) a scan tool is required to program the RKE Module to accept the new Vehicle
Access Code if a customer owned transmitter is not available.
If a functioning transmitter is available, See: Accessories and Optional Equipment/Antitheft and
Alarm Systems/Keyless Entry/Keyless Entry Transmitter/Testing and Inspection/Programming and
Relearning

Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Sentry Key Remote Entry Module
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) (1) is sometimes referred to as the Wireless
Control Module (WCM). The SKREEM is the primary component of the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System (SKIS). It is also the receiver for the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system. The SKREEM is
located on the right side of the steering column, near the ignition lock cylinder housing and is
concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The molded black plastic housing for the
SKREEM has an integral molded plastic halo-like antenna ring (4) that extends from the bottom.
When the SKREEM is properly installed on the steering column, the antenna ring is oriented
around the circumference of the ignition lock cylinder housing.
A single integral connector receptacle (3) is located just behind the antenna ring on the bottom of
the SKREEM housing. An integral molded plastic mounting tab (2) on the rear corner of the
SKREEM housing has a hole in the center through which a screw passes to secure the unit to the
steering column. The SKREEM is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a single take
out and connector of the instrument panel wire harness.
Two SKREEM modules are used: one for vehicles equipped with RKE only, and one for vehicles
equipped with RKE and SKIS. The SKREEM cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or
damaged, the entire SKREEM unit must be replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the Wireless Control
Module/WCM) contains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a microprocessor. The SKREEM
transmits RF signals to, and receives RF signals from the Sentry Key transponder through a tuned
antenna enclosed within the molded plastic antenna ring integral to the SKREEM housing. If this
antenna ring is not mounted properly around the ignition lock cylinder housing, communication
problems between the SKREEM and the transponder may arise. These communication problems
will result in Sentry Key transponder-related faults.
The SKREEM also serves as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) RF receiver. See: Body and
Frame/Locks/Power Locks/Description and Operation/Description . The SKREEM communicates
over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus with the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN), the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM)/Engine Control Module (ECM) or the diagnostic scan tool.
The SKREEM and the PCM/ECM both use software that includes a rolling code algorithm strategy,
which helps to reduce the possibility of unauthorized Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS)
disarming. The rolling code algorithm ensures security by preventing an override of the SKIS
through the unauthorized substitution of the SKREEM or the PCM/ECM. However, the use of this
strategy also means that replacement of either the SKREEM or the PCM/ECM units will require a
system initialization procedure to restore system operation.
The SKREEM retains in memory the ID numbers of any Sentry Key transponder that is
programmed into it. A maximum of eight Sentry Key transponders can be programmed into the
SKREEM. For added system security, each SKREEM is programmed with a unique Secret Key
code. This code is stored in memory, sent over the CAN data bus to the PCM or ECM, and is
encoded to the transponder of every Sentry Key that is programmed into the SKREEM. Therefore,
the Secret Key code is a common element that is found in every component of the SKIS.
Another security code called a PIN, is used to gain access to the SKREEM Secured Access Mode.
The Secured Access Mode is required during service
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment > Keyless
Entry Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Remote Keyless Entry Module > Page 17
to perform the SKIS initialization and Sentry Key transponder programming procedures. The
SKREEM also stores the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in its memory, which it learns through
a CAN data bus message from the PCM or ECM during SKIS initialization.
In the event that a SKREEM replacement is required, the Secret Key code can be transferred to
the new SKREEM from the PCM or ECM using a diagnostic scan tool and the SKIS initialization
procedure. Proper completion of the SKIS initialization will allow the existing Sentry Keys to be
programmed into the new SKREEM so that new keys will not be required. In the event that the
original Secret Key code cannot be recovered, SKREEM replacement will also require new Sentry
Keys. The diagnostic scan tool will alert the technician during the SKIS initialization procedure if
new Sentry Keys are required.
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the SKREEM transmits an RF signal to excite
the transponder in the ignition key. The SKREEM then waits for an RF signal response from the
transponder. If the response received identifies the key as valid, the SKREEM sends an electronic
valid key message to the PCM/ECM over the CAN bus. If the response received identifies the key
as invalid or if no response is received from the key transponder, the SKREEM sends an invalid
key message to the PCM/ECM. The PCM/ECM will enable or disable engine operation based upon
the status of the SKREEM messages. It is important to note that the default condition in the PCM or
ECM is an invalid key ; therefore, if no message is received from the SKREEM by the PCM or
ECM, the engine will be disabled and the vehicle immobilized after two seconds of running.
The SKREEM also sends security indicator request messages to the EMIC over the CAN data bus
to tell the EMIC how to operate the security indicator. The security indicator request message from
the SKREEM tells the EMIC to turn the indicator ON for about three seconds each time the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position as a bulb test. After completion of the bulb test, the SKREEM
sends security indicator request messages to the EMIC to turn the indicator OFF, turn the indicator
ON, or to flash the indicator ON and OFF. If the security indicator flashes or stays ON solid after
the bulb test, it signifies a SKIS fault. If the SKREEM detects a system malfunction or the SKIS has
become ineffective, the security indicator will stay ON solid. If the SKREEM detects an invalid key
or if a key transponder-related fault exists, the security indicator will flash. If the vehicle is equipped
with the Customer Learn transponder programming feature, the SKREEM will also send messages
to the EMIC to flash the security indicator whenever the Customer Learn programming mode is
being utilized. .
The SKIS performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, and will
store fault information in the form of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in SKREEM memory if a
system malfunction is detected. The hard wired circuits of the SKREEM may be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the
SKREEM or the electronic controls or communication between other modules and devices that
provide some features of the SKIS. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the SKREEM or the electronic controls and communication related to SKREEM operation requires
the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Winch Relay: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
RELAY PACK
Electrical operation of the control assembly consists of four heavy duty relays, a thermal-switch
located on the motor armature brush holder and a Low Voltage Interrupt (LVI) located in the control
assembly. The thermal-switch interrupts the power-in function and the LVI affects both the power-in
and power-out functions and must be reset by allowing the charging circuit voltage to rise above 10
volts for more than 30 seconds. The thermal switch is reset only by allowing the winch motor to
cool adequately (about 30 minutes). Relay number 1 and 3 control current flow through the field
windings and relay number 2 and 4 supply current to the motor armature.
Operation
In the power-out mode, relay number 2 and 3 are energized by the remote control switch. Current
flows from the positive battery terminal through relay number 3 then through the black motor cable
to the number 2 and number 1 field windings. From the black motor cable current then flows
through solenoid number 2 to the motor armature to ground.
In power-in mode, relay number 1 and 4 are energized. Current again flows from the battery
positive cable, but this time current flows through solenoid number 1 then through field winding
number 1. Current flowing in the reverse direction through the field windings cause the motor to
turn in the opposite direction. From the red motor cable current then flows through relay number 4
to the black cable going to the motor armature to ground.

DESCRIPTION
When an RKE lock message is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
door locks, the interior lighting is turned off, the horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the park
lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock message is sent to the instrument cluster, the
instrument cluster actuates the driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is enabled) unlock,
the interior lighting is turned on and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed.
When an RKE panic message is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is enabled) unlock, the interior lighting is turned on
and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is disarmed. The panic message will also cause the
exterior lamps (including the headlights) to flash, and the horn to sound for about three minutes, or
until a second panic message is sent to the instrument cluster. A vehicle speed of about 25.7
Km/h(15 mph) will also cancel the panic event.
Operation
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted, the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will
retain all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replacing or adding a key fob transmitter
(maximum of 4) a scan tool is required to program the RKE Module to accept the new Vehicle
Access Code if a customer owned transmitter is not available.
If a functioning transmitter is available, See: Accessories and Optional Equipment/Antitheft and

Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Sentry Key Remote Entry Module
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) (1) is sometimes referred to as the Wireless
Control Module (WCM). The SKREEM is the primary component of the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System (SKIS). It is also the receiver for the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system. The SKREEM is
located on the right side of the steering column, near the ignition lock cylinder housing and is
concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The molded black plastic housing for the
SKREEM has an integral molded plastic halo-like antenna ring (4) that extends from the bottom.
When the SKREEM is properly installed on the steering column, the antenna ring is oriented
around the circumference of the ignition lock cylinder housing.
A single integral connector receptacle (3) is located just behind the antenna ring on the bottom of
the SKREEM housing. An integral molded plastic mounting tab (2) on the rear corner of the
SKREEM housing has a hole in the center through which a screw passes to secure the unit to the
steering column. The SKREEM is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a single take
out and connector of the instrument panel wire harness.
Two SKREEM modules are used: one for vehicles equipped with RKE only, and one for vehicles
equipped with RKE and SKIS. The SKREEM cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or
damaged, the entire SKREEM unit must be replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the Wireless Control
Module/WCM) contains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a microprocessor. The SKREEM
transmits RF signals to, and receives RF signals from the Sentry Key transponder through a tuned
antenna enclosed within the molded plastic antenna ring integral to the SKREEM housing. If this
antenna ring is not mounted properly around the ignition lock cylinder housing, communication
problems between the SKREEM and the transponder may arise. These communication problems
will result in Sentry Key transponder-related faults.
The SKREEM also serves as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) RF receiver. See: Body and
Frame/Locks/Power Locks/Description and Operation/Description . The SKREEM communicates
over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus with the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN), the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM)/Engine Control Module (ECM) or the diagnostic scan tool.
The SKREEM and the PCM/ECM both use software that includes a rolling code algorithm strategy,
which helps to reduce the possibility of unauthorized Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS)
disarming. The rolling code algorithm ensures security by preventing an override of the SKIS
through the unauthorized substitution of the SKREEM or the PCM/ECM. However, the use of this
strategy also means that replacement of either the SKREEM or the PCM/ECM units will require a
system initialization procedure to restore system operation.
The SKREEM retains in memory the ID numbers of any Sentry Key transponder that is
programmed into it. A maximum of eight Sentry Key transponders can be programmed into the
SKREEM. For added system security, each SKREEM is programmed with a unique Secret Key
code. This code is stored in memory, sent over the CAN data bus to the PCM or ECM, and is
encoded to the transponder of every Sentry Key that is programmed into the SKREEM. Therefore,
the Secret Key code is a common element that is found in every component of the SKIS.
Another security code called a PIN, is used to gain access to the SKREEM Secured Access Mode.
The Secured Access Mode is required during service
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Body and Frame > Keyless Entry Module >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Remote Keyless Entry Module > Page 76
to perform the SKIS initialization and Sentry Key transponder programming procedures. The
SKREEM also stores the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in its memory, which it learns through
a CAN data bus message from the PCM or ECM during SKIS initialization.
In the event that a SKREEM replacement is required, the Secret Key code can be transferred to
the new SKREEM from the PCM or ECM using a diagnostic scan tool and the SKIS initialization
procedure. Proper completion of the SKIS initialization will allow the existing Sentry Keys to be
programmed into the new SKREEM so that new keys will not be required. In the event that the
original Secret Key code cannot be recovered, SKREEM replacement will also require new Sentry
Keys. The diagnostic scan tool will alert the technician during the SKIS initialization procedure if
new Sentry Keys are required.
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the SKREEM transmits an RF signal to excite
the transponder in the ignition key. The SKREEM then waits for an RF signal response from the
transponder. If the response received identifies the key as valid, the SKREEM sends an electronic
valid key message to the PCM/ECM over the CAN bus. If the response received identifies the key
as invalid or if no response is received from the key transponder, the SKREEM sends an invalid
key message to the PCM/ECM. The PCM/ECM will enable or disable engine operation based upon
the status of the SKREEM messages. It is important to note that the default condition in the PCM or
ECM is an invalid key ; therefore, if no message is received from the SKREEM by the PCM or
ECM, the engine will be disabled and the vehicle immobilized after two seconds of running.
The SKREEM also sends security indicator request messages to the EMIC over the CAN data bus
to tell the EMIC how to operate the security indicator. The security indicator request message from
the SKREEM tells the EMIC to turn the indicator ON for about three seconds each time the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position as a bulb test. After completion of the bulb test, the SKREEM
sends security indicator request messages to the EMIC to turn the indicator OFF, turn the indicator
ON, or to flash the indicator ON and OFF. If the security indicator flashes or stays ON solid after
the bulb test, it signifies a SKIS fault. If the SKREEM detects a system malfunction or the SKIS has
become ineffective, the security indicator will stay ON solid. If the SKREEM detects an invalid key
or if a key transponder-related fault exists, the security indicator will flash. If the vehicle is equipped
with the Customer Learn transponder programming feature, the SKREEM will also send messages
to the EMIC to flash the security indicator whenever the Customer Learn programming mode is
being utilized. .
The SKIS performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, and will
store fault information in the form of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in SKREEM memory if a
system malfunction is detected. The hard wired circuits of the SKREEM may be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the
SKREEM or the electronic controls or communication between other modules and devices that
provide some features of the SKIS. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the SKREEM or the electronic controls and communication related to SKREEM operation requires
the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

SUBJECT: No Engine Crank Or No Engine Start Due To Electronic Lockup Of The WCM /
SKREEM
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves the replacement of the Wireless Control Module (WCM), and if
equipped, the replacement of the Electric Steering Column Lock (ELV). The WCM is also referred
to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DR/DH/D1/DC/DM) Ram Truck (1500/2500/3500/4500/5500)

2006 - 2008 (PT) Chrysler PT Cruiser
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles built on or before May 05, 2008 (MDH 0505XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION: The customer will experience a no engine crank AND a no engine start
condition. Also, the remote keyless entry (RKE) system will not operate. This condition may be due
to an electrostatic discharge (ESD) from the ignition key into the Wireless Control Module (WCM),
causing the WCM to electronically lockup. This condition may occur more frequently in dry and/or
cold weather conditions where a sufficient electrostatic charge is more easily produced. This
condition is corrected by the replacement of the WCM.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the condition present (i.e. the vehicle in the no crank / no start condition), connect the
StarSCAN(R) scan tool to the vehicle.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON position, and power up the StarSCAN(R).
3. If the WCM is electronically locked up, the StarSCAN(R) will display the WCM as being "off bus".
4. If the no crank / no start condition is present, and the WCM is "off bus", then reset the WCM by
temporarily removing the IOD fuse (with the key out of the ignition switch), wait for 10 seconds and
then reinstall the IOD fuse.
5. With the IOD fuse reset having been performed, verify that the vehicle will now crank, start, and
run.
6. If the condition is temporarily corrected by performing the above steps, and if the part number of
the WCM is earlier than the part number of the WCM listed in the part reference table in the
Service Bulletin Parts Required Section below, then perform the Repair Procedure.

SUBJECT: No Engine Crank Or No Engine Start Due To Electronic Lockup Of The WCM /
SKREEM
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves the replacement of the Wireless Control Module (WCM), and if
equipped, the replacement of the Electric Steering Column Lock (ELV). The WCM is also referred
to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DR/DH/D1/DC/DM) Ram Truck (1500/2500/3500/4500/5500)
2007 - 2008 (JK) Wrangler

2007 - 2008 (MK) Compass/Patriot
2007 - 2008 (PM) Caliber
2006 - 2008 (PT) Chrysler PT Cruiser
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles built on or before May 05, 2008 (MDH 0505XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION: The customer will experience a no engine crank AND a no engine start
condition. Also, the remote keyless entry (RKE) system will not operate. This condition may be due
to an electrostatic discharge (ESD) from the ignition key into the Wireless Control Module (WCM),
causing the WCM to electronically lockup. This condition may occur more frequently in dry and/or
cold weather conditions where a sufficient electrostatic charge is more easily produced. This
condition is corrected by the replacement of the WCM.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the condition present (i.e. the vehicle in the no crank / no start condition), connect the
StarSCAN(R) scan tool to the vehicle.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON position, and power up the StarSCAN(R).
3. If the WCM is electronically locked up, the StarSCAN(R) will display the WCM as being "off bus".
4. If the no crank / no start condition is present, and the WCM is "off bus", then reset the WCM by
temporarily removing the IOD fuse (with the key out of the ignition switch), wait for 10 seconds and
then reinstall the IOD fuse.
5. With the IOD fuse reset having been performed, verify that the vehicle will now crank, start, and
run.
6. If the condition is temporarily corrected by performing the above steps, and if the part number of
the WCM is earlier than the part number of the WCM listed in the part reference table in the
Service Bulletin Parts Required Section below, then perform the Repair Procedure.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS
Vehicle/Locations contains the master connector/ground/splice location index charts with
hyperlinks to the applicable location illustrations. The illustrations contain the connector name (or
number)/ground number/splice number and component identification.
The abbreviation T/O is used in the component location section to indicate a point in which the
wiring harness branches out to a component. The abbreviation N/S means Not Shown in the
illustrations

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Body Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 308
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Service Procedure
NOTE:
Either wiTECH, StarMOBILE or StarSCAN can be used to perform this recall. This procedure must
be performed with software release level 10.02 or higher for wiTECH and Star Mobile applications,
or software release level 9.05 for StarSCAN applications. If the reprogramming flash for the ECM is
aborted or interrupted, repeat the procedure.
A. Reprogram the ECM Using wiTECH:
CAUTION:
On 2007 model year trucks, verify that Emissions Recall G30 has been completed prior to
performing this notification. Recall G30 contains "bootloader" software that must be installed to
prevent damage to the ECM.
1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5
volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the
flash process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
NOTE:
Use an accurate stand alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 446
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

DESCRIPTION
CUMMINS FUEL SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The Engine Control Module (ECM) for the 5.9L diesel engine (16) is bolted to the left side of the
engine below the intake manifold.
Operation
OPERATION
The main function of the Engine Control Module (ECM) is to electrically control the fuel system.
The ECM also controls certain transmission and other functions previously controlled by the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 502
The ECM can adapt its programming to meet changing operating conditions.
The ECM receives input signals from various switches and sensors. Based on these inputs, the
ECM regulates various engine and vehicle operations through different system components. These
components are referred to as ECM Outputs. The sensors and switches that provide inputs to the
ECM are considered ECM Inputs.
NOTE: ECM Inputs:
- Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) Signals #1 and #2
- AC system pressure
- Auto shutdown (ASD) sense
- Battery temperature
- Battery temperature sensor
- Battery voltage
- Brake switch
- Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP)

Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is located in the right-rear section of the engine
compartment under the cowl.
Two different PCM's are used (JTEC and NGC). These can be easily identified. JTEC's use three
32-way connectors, NGC's use four 38-way connectors
Modes Of Operation
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to
the output devices. For example, the PCM must calculate different injector pulse width and ignition
timing for idle than it does for wide open throttle (WOT).
The PCM will operate in two different modes: Open Loop and Closed Loop.
During Open Loop modes, the PCM receives input signals and responds only according to preset
PCM programming. Input from the oxygen (O2S) sensors is not monitored during Open Loop
modes.
During Closed Loop modes, the PCM will monitor the oxygen (O2S) sensors input. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio. This ratio is 14.7 parts air-to-1 part fuel. By monitoring the exhaust oxygen content through
the O2S sensor, the PCM can fine tune the injector pulse width. This is done to achieve optimum
fuel economy combined with low emission engine performance.
The fuel injection system has the following modes of operation:
- Ignition switch ON
- Engine start-up (crank)
- Engine warm-up
- Idle
- Cruise
- Acceleration
- Deceleration
- Wide open throttle (WOT)
- Ignition switch OFF
The ignition switch On, engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up, acceleration, deceleration and
wide open throttle modes are Open Loop modes. The idle and cruise modes, (with the engine at
operating temperature) are Closed Loop modes.

Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 505
IGNITION SWITCH (KEY-ON) MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. When the fuel system is activated by the ignition switch, the following
actions occur:
- The PCM pre-positions the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from the MAP sensor input to determine basic fuel
strategy.
- The PCM monitors the engine coolant temperature sensor input. The PCM modifies fuel strategy
based on this input.
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor input is monitored.
- Throttle position sensor (TPS) is monitored.
- The auto shutdown (ASD) relay is energized by the PCM for approximately three seconds.
- The fuel pump is energized through the fuel pump relay by the PCM. The fuel pump will operate
for approximately three seconds unless the engine is operating or the starter motor is engaged.
- The O2S sensor heater element is energized via the ASD or O2S heater relay. The O2S sensor
input is not used by the PCM to calibrate air-fuel ratio during this mode of operation.
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The following actions occur when the starter motor is engaged.
The PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
The PCM monitors the crankshaft position sensor. If the PCM does not receive a crankshaft
position sensor signal within 3 seconds of cranking the engine, it will shut down the fuel injection
system.
The fuel pump is activated by the PCM through the fuel pump relay.
Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
The PCM determines the proper ignition timing according to input received from the crankshaft
position sensor.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During engine warm-up, the PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
Based on these inputs the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
- The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor and adjusts ignition
timing.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
- When engine has reached operating temperature, the PCM will begin monitoring O2S sensor
input. The system will then leave the warm-up mode and go into closed loop operation.
IDLE MODE

It also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by increasing and decreasing spark advance.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high

- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen (O2S) sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then adjust
the injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio. It also adjusts engine idle
speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested by the A/C thermostat.
ACCELERATION MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The PCM recognizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or MAP
pressure as a demand for increased engine output and vehicle acceleration. The PCM increases
injector pulse width in response to increased throttle opening.
DECELERATION MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is an Open Loop mode. During hard
deceleration, the PCM receives the following inputs.
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 507
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Vehicle speed
If the vehicle is under hard deceleration with the proper rpm and closed throttle conditions, the
PCM will ignore the oxygen sensor input signal. The PCM will enter a fuel cut-off strategy in which
it will not supply a ground to the injectors. If a hard deceleration does not exist, the PCM will
determine the proper injector pulse width and continue injection.
Based on the above inputs, the PCM will adjust engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC)
motor.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil on and off.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During wide open throttle operation, the PCM receives the following
inputs.

- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
During wide open throttle conditions, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off. The PCM ignores the oxygen sensor input signal and provides a predetermined
amount of additional fuel. This is done by adjusting injector pulse width.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
IGNITION SWITCH OFF MODE
When ignition switch is turned to OFF position, the PCM stops operating the injectors, ignition coil,
ASD relay and fuel pump relay.

The PCM operates the fuel system. The PCM is a pre-programmed, triple microprocessor digital
computer. It regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, emission control devices, charging system,
certain transmission features, speed control, air conditioning compressor clutch engagement and
idle speed. The PCM can adapt its programming to meet changing operating conditions.
The PCM receives input signals from various switches and sensors. Based on these inputs, the

Engine Control Module: Testing and Inspection SKREEM Programming
SKREEM PROGRAMMING
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for a gasoline engine, or an Engine Control Module
(ECM) for a diesel engine and the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the
Wireless Control Module/WCM) on vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS) are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in order:
NOTE: If the PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, program the PCM VIN into the
PCM first.
1. If applicable first replace the PCM/ECM with the original WCM still connected to the vehicle. 2.
Using the appropriate service information program the new PCM/ECM. (This will ensure the Secret
Key Transfer from the original WCM into the
new PCM/ECM).
3. Now replace and program the WCM. This will retain the Secret Key from the PCM/ECM back
into the new WCM. 4. With the scan tool, select Miscellaneous Functions, WCM/Wireless Control
Module. Then select the desired procedure and follow the display on
the scan tool.
5. If the vehicle is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System program the Placard Pressure
Values into the WCM/SKREEM. 6. Ensure all the customer's keys have been programmed into the
new module if necessary.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
PROGRAMMING THE SKREEM
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique to each SKREEM/WCM. This code is
programmed and stored in the SKREEM/WCM, the PCM/ECM, and each ignition key transponder
chip. When the PCM/ECM or SKREEM/WCM is replaced, it is necessary to program the Secret
Key into the new module using a diagnostic scan tool. Follow the programming steps outlined in
the diagnostic scan tool for PCM REPLACED , ECM REPLACED , WCM REPLACED , or
GATEWAY REPLACED under MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL
MODULE/WCM menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: Programming the PCM/ECM or SKREEM is done using a diagnostic scan tool and a PIN to
enter secure access mode. If three attempts are made to enter secure access mode using an
incorrect PIN, secure access mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit this lockout mode, turn
the ignition to the RUN position for one hour then enter the correct PIN. Be certain that all
accessories are turned OFF. Also monitor the battery state and connect a battery charger if
necessary.
NOTE: Before replacing the ECU for a failed driver, control circuit or ground circuit, be sure to
check the related component/circuit integrity for failures not detected due to a double fault in the
circuit. Most ECM driver/control circuit failures are caused by internal component failures (i.e. relay
and solenoids) and shorted circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers and switched circuits). These failures are
difficult to detect when a double fault has occurred and only one DTC has set.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When a ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM 3. Replace all ignition keys and program them
to the new SKIM.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When an ECM (Bosch) and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM (Bosch) 3. Replace all ignition keys and
program them to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING THE SKIM
CAUTION: Read all notes and cautions for programming procedures.
1. Connect a battery charger to the vehicle. 2. Connect the StarSCAN(R).
CAUTION: If the ECM/PCM and SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, the ECM/PCM
MUST be programmed before the
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 521
SKREEM/WCM.
3. Select "ECU View". 4. Select "WCM Wireless Control Module". 5. Select "Miscellaneous
Functions". 6. Select WCM replaced. 7. Enter the PIN when prompted. 8. Verify the correct
information.
NOTE: If the ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle keys will need to be
replaced and programmed to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING IGNITION KEYS TO THE SKREEM
Each ignition key transponder also has a unique ID code that is assigned at the time the key is
manufactured. When a key is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM, the transponder ID code is
learned by the module and the transponder acquires the unique Secret Key ID code from the
SKREEM/WCM. To program ignition keys into the SKREEM/WCM, follow the programming steps
outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for PROGRAM IGNITION KEYS OR KEY FOBS under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE/WCM menu item.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
NOTE: A maximum of eight keys can be learned to each SKREEM. Once a key is learned to a
SKREEM, that key has acquired the Secret Key for that SKREEM and cannot be transferred to any
other SKREEM or vehicle.
If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the scan tool will display one of the following error
messages:
- PROGRAMMING NOT ATTEMPTED - The scan tool attempts to read the programmed key status
and there are no keys programmed into SKREEM memory.
- PROGRAMMING KEY FAILED (POSSIBLE USED KEY FROM WRONG VEHICLE) - SKREEM is
unable to program an ignition key transponder due to one of the following:
- The ignition key transponder is ineffective.
- The ignition key transponder is or has been already programmed to another vehicle.
- 8 KEYS ALREADY LEARNED, PROGRAMMING NOT DONE - The SKREEM transponder ID
memory is full.
LEARNED KEY IN IGNITION - The ID for the ignition key transponder currently in the ignition lock
cylinder is already programmed into SKREEM memory.

REMOVAL
CAUTION: Certain ABS systems rely on having the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) broadcast
the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) over the bus network. To prevent problems of DTCs and
other items related to the VIN broadcast, it is recommend that you disconnect the ABS CAB
(controller) temporarily when replacing the PCM. Once the PCM is replaced, write the VIN to the
PCM using a scan tool. This is done from the engine main menu. Arrow over to the second page to
"1. Miscellaneous". Select "Check VIN" from the choices. Make sure it has the correct VIN entered
before continuing. When the VIN is complete, turn off the ignition key and reconnect the ABS
module connector. This will prevent the setting of DTCs and other items associated with the lack of
a VIN detected when you turn the key ON after replacing the PCM.
CAUTION: Use the scan tool to reprogram the new PCM with the vehicles original identification
number (VIN) and the vehicles original mileage. If this step is not done, a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) may be set.
The PCM (1) is located in the engine compartment attached to the dash panel (3).
To avoid possible voltage spike damage to the PCM, ignition key must be off, and negative battery
cable must be disconnected before unplugging PCM connectors.
1. Disconnect negative battery cable at battery. 2. Remove cover over electrical connectors. Cover
snaps onto PCM. 3. Carefully unplug the three 32-way connectors (four 38-way connectors if
equipped with NGC) from PCM (1). 4. Remove three PCM mounting bolts (4) and remove PCM
from vehicle.

Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Instructions > Page 566
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Main Relay (Computer/Fuel System): Testing and Inspection
Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

Seat Occupant Classification Module - Air Bag: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) (1) is located in the passenger compartment of the
vehicle, where it is secured by three nuts to three studs on a stamped steel mounting bracket
welded onto the top of the floor panel transmission tunnel under the center front seat section or the
center floor console, as the vehicle is equipped. Concealed within a hollow in the center of the die
cast aluminum ORC housing is the electronic circuitry of the ORC which includes a
microprocessor, an electronic impact sensor, an electronic safing sensor, and an energy storage
capacitor. A stamped metal cover plate is secured to the bottom of the ORC housing with screws to
enclose and protect the internal electronic circuitry and components.
An arrow (2) printed on the label (3) on the top of the ORC housing provides a visual verification of
the proper orientation of the unit, and should always be pointed toward the front of the vehicle. The
ORC housing has integral mounting flanges on three corners. The mounting flange to the right of
the connector receptacles (4) has an integral locating pin on its lower surface. Both right side
flanges have round mounting holes, while the flange on the left side has a slotted mounting hole. A
molded plastic electrical connector (4) with 2 receptacles, one containing 24 terminal pins and the
other containing 32 terminal pins, exits the forward facing side of the ORC housing. These terminal
pins connect the ORC to the vehicle electrical system through two dedicated take outs and
connectors, one each from the instrument panel and the body wire harnesses.
A molded plastic protective cover is installed over the ORC to provide additional moisture
contamination protection to the unit. Integral latch features on each side of the cover engage a slot
(5) on each side of the base of the ORC housing to secure the cover to the ORC. This protective
cover must be reinstalled following any service requiring its removal.
The impact sensor and safing sensor internal to the ORC are calibrated for the specific vehicle, and
are only serviced as a unit with the ORC. In addition, there are unique versions of the ORC for light
and heavy-duty vehicles, and for vehicles with or without the optional side curtain airbags. The
ORC cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if damaged or ineffective, it must be replaced.

Seat Occupant Classification Module - Air Bag: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) logic circuits and controls all of the SRS components. The ORC uses
On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) and can communicate with other electronic modules in the vehicle as
well as with the diagnostic scan tool using the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. This
method of communication is used for control of the airbag indicator in the ElectroMechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) and for SRS
diagnosis and testing through the 16-way Data Link Connector (DLC) located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel. See: Restraint Systems/Air Bag Systems/Malfunction Lamp /
Indicator/Description and Operation/Operation .
The ORC microprocessor continuously monitors all of the SRS electrical circuits to determine the
system readiness. If the ORC detects a monitored system fault, it sets an active and stored
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and sends electronic messages to the EMIC over the CAN data
bus to turn ON the airbag indicator. An active fault only remains for the duration of the fault, or in
some cases for the duration of the current ignition switch cycle, while a stored fault causes a DTC
to be stored in memory by the ORC. For some DTCs, if a fault does not recur for a number of
ignition cycles, the ORC will automatically erase the stored DTC. For other internal faults, the
stored DTC is latched forever.
In standard cab vehicles (except light-duty DR 1500), the ORC also monitors a resistor multiplexed
input from the passenger airbag on/off switch. If the passenger airbag on/off switch is set to the
OFF position, the ORC turns ON the passenger airbag on/off indicator and will internally disable
the passenger airbag and, on light-duty DR 1500 only, the seat belt tensioner from being deployed.
The ORC receives battery current through two circuits; a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit
through a fuse in the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM), and a fused ignition switch output
(run-start) circuit through a second fuse in the TIPM. The ORC receives ground through a ground
circuit and take out of the instrument panel wire harness. This take out has a single eyelet terminal
connector that is secured by a ground screw to the instrument panel structural support. These
connections allow the ORC to be operational whenever the ignition switch is in the START or ON
positions.
The ORC also contains an energy-storage capacitor. When the ignition switch is in the START or
ON positions, this capacitor is continually being charged with enough electrical energy to deploy
the SRS components for up to one second following a battery disconnect or failure. The purpose of
the capacitor is to provide backup SRS protection in case there is a loss of battery current supply to
the ORC during an impact.
Two sensors are contained within the ORC, an electronic impact sensor and a safing sensor. The
ORC also monitors inputs from two remote front impact sensors located on the back of the right
and left ends of the lower radiator crossmember near the front of the vehicle. The electronic impact
sensors are accelerometers that sense the rate of vehicle deceleration, which provide verification
of the direction and severity of an impact. On vehicles equipped with optional side curtain airbags
the ORC also monitors inputs from two additional remote impact sensors located within both the
left and right B-pillars to control deployment of the side curtain airbag units.
The safing sensor is an electronic accelerometer sensor within the ORC that provides an additional
logic input to the ORC microprocessor. The safing sensor is used to verify the need for a SRS
deployment by detecting impact energy of a lesser magnitude than that of the primary electronic
impact sensors, and must exceed a safing threshold in order for the airbags to deploy. Vehicles
equipped with optional side curtain airbags feature a second safing sensor within the ORC to
provide confirmation to the ORC microprocessor of side impact forces. This second safing sensor
is a bi-directional unit that detects impact forces from either side of the vehicle.
Pre-programmed decision algorithms in the ORC microprocessor determine when the deceleration
rate as signaled by the impact sensors and the safing sensors indicate an impact that is severe
enough to require SRS protection and, based upon the severity of the monitored impact,
determines the level of front airbag deployment force required for each front seating position. When
the programmed conditions are met, the ORC sends the proper electrical signals to deploy the dual
multistage front airbags at the programmed force levels and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the front
seat belt tensioners or either side curtain airbag unit. On standard cab vehicles except light-duty
DR 1500, the passenger front airbag will be deployed by the ORC only if enabled by the passenger
airbag on/off switch at the time of the impact.
The hard wired inputs and outputs for the ORC may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic
tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. However, conventional
diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the ORC or the electronic controls
or communication between other modules and devices that provide features of the SRS. The most
reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the ORC or the electronic controls and
communication related to ORC operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transponder (2), also known as a trigger module, is located in the front wheel wells (behind the
wheelhouse splash shields) of the vehicle to provide the WCM/SKREEM with the location of the
front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Wireless Control Module (WCM), commonly referred to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry
Module (SKREEM), uses transponders (trigger modules) located in the front wheel wells on the
vehicle to provide it with the location of the front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle. Like the base
system, the WCM receives RF signals from all four rotating wheel speed sensors. When the WCM
needs to know which sensor is located at a particular location on the vehicle, it directs the
transponder at that location to send out a low frequency signal to excite the nearby sensor. The
WCM then receives that excited signal and knows where that sensor is located. This auto-locating
process only happens in the first 10 minutes of any WCM cycle while traveling at speeds above 20
mph (32 km/h) (Each WCM cycle ends when the vehicle has been shut off for a time period of
approximately 20 minutes or longer). If the TPMS fails to localize, the TPM indicator lamp will flash
on/off for 75 seconds, and remain on solid.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

REPAIR PROCEDURE - USING StarSCAN AND THE INTERNET TO RETRIEVE THE FLASH
FILE:
NOTE:
Before performing this Repair Procedure, the operating software in the StarSCAN(R) must be
programmed with software release level 8.03 or higher.
The software release level is visible in the blue header at the top of the StarSCAN(R) screen.
NOTE:
The StarSCAN(R) diagnostic scan tool fully supports Internet connectivity. However, in order to
take advantage of this feature you must first configure the StarSCAN® for your dealership's

Control Module: Description and Operation Transmission Control Module - Operation
OPERATION
RLE and RFE TRANSMISSIONS
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) controls all electronic operations of the transmission. The
TCM receives information regarding vehicle operation from both direct and indirect inputs, and
selects the operational mode of the transmission. Direct inputs are hard wired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs are shared with the TCM via the vehicle communication
bus.
Some examples of direct inputs to the TCM are:
- Battery (B+) voltage
- Ignition "ON" voltage
- Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+) (if equipped)
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Transmission Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Shaft Speed Sensor
- Output Shaft Speed Sensor
- Line Pressure Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Target Idle
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Ambient/Battery Temperature
- Scan Tool Communication
Based on the information received from these various inputs, the TCM determines the appropriate
shift schedule and shift points, depending on the present operating conditions and driver demand.
This is possible through the control of various direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of TCM direct outputs are:
- Transmission Control Relay
- Solenoids
- Torque Reduction Request
Some examples of TCM indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM)
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN)
In addition to monitoring inputs and controlling outputs, the TCM has other important
responsibilities and functions:
- Storing and maintaining Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI)
- Storing and selecting appropriate Shift Schedules
- System self-diagnostics
- Diagnostic capabilities (with scan tool)
NOTE: If the TCM has been replaced, the "Quick Learn Procedure" must be performed. See:
Powertrain Management/Transmission Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Programming and
Relearning/Transmission Control Module/TCM Quick Learn
BATTERY FEED
A fused, direct battery feed to the TCM is used for continuous power. This battery voltage is
necessary to retain memory in the TCM. When the battery (B+) is disconnected, this memory is
lost. When the battery (B+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the TCM and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
CLUTCH VOLUME INDEXES (CVI)
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and
Modules - A/T > Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control Module
- Description > Page 718
An important function of the TCM is to monitor Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI). CVIs represent the
volume of fluid needed to compress a clutch pack.
The TCM monitors gear ratio changes by monitoring the Input and Output Speed Sensors. The
Input, or Turbine Speed Sensor sends an electrical signal to the TCM that represents input shaft
rpm. The Output Speed Sensor provides the TCM with output shaft speed information.
By comparing the two inputs, the TCM can determine transmission gear position. This is important
to the CVI calculation because the TCM determines CVIs by monitoring how long it takes for a gear
change to occur.
Gear ratios can be determined by using the Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sensor
values in the "Monitors" display. Gear ratio can be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor
value by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000 rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the TCM can determine that the gear ratio is 2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio
changes to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied and released. By monitoring the
length of time it takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift request, the TCM can determine
the volume of fluid used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the volume of fluid need to apply the element
increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the input clutch assembly can cause inadequate or
out-of-range element volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed Sensors and wiring can cause
these conditions. The following charts identifies the appropriate clutch volumes and when they are
monitored/updated:

Modules - A/T > Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control Module
- Description > Page 719
SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the TCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift lever position
- Throttle position
- Engine load
- Fluid temperature
- Software level
As driving conditions change, the TCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the
following chart to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Transmission Control System Relay: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR CONTINUITY
1. Remove the fuse (1) for the circuit being checked or, disconnect the battery. 2. Connect one lead
of the ohmmeter to one side of the circuit being tested 3. Connect the other lead to the other end of
the circuit being tested. Low or no resistance means good continuity.
Testing For A Short To Ground
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Remove the fuse and disconnect all items involved with the fuse. 2. Connect a test light or a
voltmeter across the terminals of the fuse. 3. Starting at the fuse block, wiggle the wiring harness
about six to eight inches apart and watch the voltmeter/test lamp. 4. If the voltmeter registers
voltage or the test lamp glows, there is a short to ground in that general area of the wiring harness.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and
Modules - A/T > Transmission Control System Relay, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 742
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Control Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality now resides in the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM), refer to the TIPM information for location and additional information. The
TIPM controls the 4X4 transfer case shift functions via the actuation of a shift motor and utilizing
the feedback of a mode sensor assembly. Communication is via the CAN bus. Inputs include user
selectable 4X4 modes that include 2WD, AWD, 4HI, 4LO, and Neutral (selections vary with the
specific transfer case).

Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality in the Totally Integrated Power Module
(TIPM) utilizes the input from the transfer case mounted mode sensor, the instrument panel
mounted selector switch, and the following information from the vehicle's CAN bus to determine if a
shift is allowed.
- Engine RPM and Vehicle Speed
- Diagnostic Requests
- Manual Transmission and Brake Applied
- PRNDL
- Ignition Status
- ABS Messages
Once the TIP determines that a requested shift is allowed, it actuates the bi-directional shift motor
as necessary to achieve the desired transfer case operating mode. The TIPM also monitors the
mode sensor while controlling the shift motor to determine the status of the shift attempt.
Several items can cause the requested shift not to be completed. If the TIPM has recognized a
fault (DTC) of some variety, it will begin operation in one of four Functionality Levels. These levels
are:
- Level Zero - Normal Operation.
- Level One - Only Mode Shifts Are Allowed.
- Level Two - Only Mode Shifts and Shifts Into LOW Are Allowed (No Neutral Shifts Are Allowed).
- Level Three - No Shifts Are Allowed
The TIPM can also be operating in one of three possible power modes. These power modes are:
- Full Power Mode is the normal operational mode of the module. This mode is achieved by normal
CAN bus traffic being present and the ignition being in the RUN position.
Reduced Power Mode will be entered when the ignition has been powered off. In this state, the
module will shut down power supplied to external devices, and to electronic interface inputs and
outputs. From this state the module can enter either Sleep Mode or Full Power Mode. To enter this
mode, the module must receive an ignition message denoting that the ignition is off, or not receive
any messages for 5 ±0.5 seconds. To exit this mode, the module must receive one ignition
message that denotes that the ignition is in the RUN position.
- Sleep Mode will be entered, from the Reduced Power Mode, when no CAN traffic has been
sensed for 20 ±1 seconds. If during Sleep Mode the module detects CAN bus traffic, it will revert to
the Reduced Power mode while monitoring for ignition messages. It will remain in this state as long
as there is traffic other than run or start messages, and will return to Sleep mode if the bus goes
without traffic for 20 ±1 seconds.
SHIFT REQUIREMENTS
If the TIPM is in full power mode and at functionality level zero, it uses the following criteria to
determine if a shift is allowed.
If any of the driver controllable conditions are not met once the shift request is recognized, the
TIPM will solidly illuminate the source position's LED and flash the desired position's LED for all
shifts except NEUTRAL. The NEUTRAL shift LED strategy will be discussed later.
Mode shifts will be allowed regardless of transmission gear or vehicle speed, whenever the
following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector switch state indicates that a mode shift has been requested.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
Range shifts will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector Switch state indicating a range shift has been requested.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal must be recognized for at least 1.5 seconds ±100 msec.
(Automatic transmissions only)
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Clutch signal is recognized for 500 msec ± 50 msec (Manual transmissions only).
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.

SHIFT SEQUENCES
Once all the driver controllable conditions for the requested shift have been met, the TIPM begins a
shift timer with a maximum duration of 1 second per 'D' channel transition. If the shift timer expires
before the TIPM recognizes to correct mode sensor code, the shift is considered to have been
blocked. The blocked shift will increment the blocked shift counter by one. The TIPM strategy for
handling blocked shifts will be described later. The process the TIPM performs for the various shifts
will be described first.
RANGE AND MODE SHIFTS
The process for performing all the range and mode shifts are the same. The following steps
describe the process.
- Allow time for Selector Switch debounce; 250 msec ±50 msec.
- Extinguish the source gear's LED while flashing desired transfer case position's LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel transition in the
destination gear's direction while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Solidly illuminate the selected gear's LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds ±100 msec. per 'D'
channel. The TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired
position.
The exception to the preceding sequence is when a shift from 4L to 2WD/AWD is requested. If
2WD/AWD is requested from the 4L position, the transfer case is first driven to the 4H position. If
the 4H position is reached, the transfer case is then driven back to the 2WD/AWD position and the
shift is considered complete. If the transfer case does not reach any the 4H position, but is in the
2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the 2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the
shift is also considered complete.
SHIFT OUT OF NEUTRAL
The following steps describe the process for a shift out of NEUTRAL.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec toward the transfer case 4H mode
position while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds 100 msec. The

Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 767
TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired position.
- When the Neutral button is released, if the 4H position is the desired position, the shift is
complete. Illuminate the 4H LED.
- Otherwise when the Neutral button is released, if all of the shift requirements are being met then
engage the shift motor towards the desired position for 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel. (if
requirements for shifting are not met, illuminate the 4H LED and flash the destination LED as an
indication to the driver that all of the driver controllable shift conditions are not being met). If this
requires another range or mode shift, begin the range/mode shift process.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (i.e. a blocked or other
condition exists), refer to the Blocked Shift Strategy.
BLOCKED SHIFT STRATEGY
When a shift is commanded, the shift motor will be driven towards its destination position, except in
the case of shifting out of Neutral if 4L was selected (the transfer case will shift to the 4H position
first, before proceeding to 4L). If the shift is blocked on the way to the destination, the TIPM may
attempt to drive the motor back to the original position. This process will be allowed to occur 5
times. If the transfer case has reached a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel during the shift re-attempts,
the LED for the achieved gear position is illuminated and the shift attempts are stopped. To
re-attempt the desired shift, the selector switch will need to be rotated to the current position until
the switch debounce timer expires then a shift will need to be requested again.
At the end of the 5th blocked attempt, the shift motor is driven towards the last known 'D' channel
position. If this motor drive allows the transfer case to reach the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the
2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the shift is considered complete
and the shift attempts are ended.
If the mode sensor is in the NEUTRAL region at the expiration of the shift timer, the TIPM will
continue to make the shift attempts according to the blocked shift strategy independent of whether
or not the driver controlled conditions are met.
For shifts from NEUTRAL, if all 5 attempts fail to reach the desired position (which by default is
4H), the motor will be driven to stall in the direction of 4H or 4L, depending on the achieved
position. If the transfer case has reached the 2WD/AWD or 4L between gear position nearest the
NEUTRAL positions and the shift conditions are no longer being met, the transfer case will be
driven toward the corresponding 'D' channel. Otherwise, the transfer case will be driven in the
direction opposite the last attempt with the desired target being 4H or 4L.
If the transfer case reaches the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel when being driven in the 4H direction, then
one final 1.0 second drive toward 4H is attempted. If the transfer case then reaches any of the 4H
positions, the shift is considered complete and the 4H LED is illuminated. If the transfer case is still
the 2WD/AWD position, the shift is considered complete and the 2WD/AWD LED is illuminated.
NOTE: If after the 5th blocked shift and reversal attempt, if the transfer case position is in the
NEUTRAL region, shift attempts will continue until a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel is reached.
SHIFT REVERSAL TARGETS
If the shift timer expires (1 second per 'D' channel) and the transfer case has not reached the
desired position, all shifts will attempt to return to their original position with the exceptions of:
- If the intended shift is going to the High rail from Low and can't make it, but it can make the
2WD/AWD position, the motor stops at that position. The TIPM will not attempt to cross back over
NEUTRAL if it does not have to. This means that there was a block on the first attempt to go to 4H
and the transfer case has made it through NEUTRAL to a known good position, then the motor will
go back only to the 2WD/4WD position and execute the remainder of the attempts from there.
- For shifts out of NEUTRAL, any time a shift is commanded out of NEUTRAL, the system needs to
get out. The TIPM should never go to NEUTRAL unless the driver is commanding it and all
required conditions are being met
ENCODER DRIFT CORRECTION
Whenever a shift is completed, the TIPM stores the position in memory as the transfer case's
intended position. The TIPM continuously monitors the mode sensor and if the mode sensor drifts
toward into a NEUTRAL region sensor position for 2.0 seconds, the TIPM will perform a motor
drive to correct the drift. The transfer case will be driven toward the intended position for 1.0
seconds 100 msec. The TIPM will wait for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeat the attempt to shift to
the desired position. This will continue until the intended position is reached.
SHIFT MOTOR BRAKING
Two modes of shift motor braking are employed to improve shift performance, static and dynamic.
Static shift motor braking is utilized under the following conditions:
- Whenever the transfer case is in the 2WD/AWD or 4L 'D' channel position.
- Whenever an invalid mode sensor code is present.
Static motor braking is achieved by applying +12V on both shift motor wires.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and
Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 768
NOTE: Static Shift Motor Braking is independent of ignition key position.
SHIFT ATTEMPT LIMIT
To protect the transfer case system, the TIPM will impose a limit on the number of shifts that can
occur over a calibrated time period. The system will monitor the number of 'D' channel segment
transitions that occur in any 30 second time period. If the number of segment transitions is 30 or
greater, the system will go into a default mode. The default mode of operation for shifting is that the
number of allowed 'D' channel transitions permitted to occur will be 3 over each 15 second ±100
msec calibrated window of time. After 5 minutes ±100 msec, the motor can be assumed to have
cooled down and the system will revert to normal operation. The following rules also apply to the
shift limit:
- The attempt limit will not prevent shifts coming out of NEUTRAL, they will be allowed regardless
of the counter/timer.
- Any shift that is in progress when the counter reaches a maximum count in time will be allowed to
complete before the default mode is entered. D-channel transitions during this period will not be
counted towards the default mode limit.
- A block, regardless of the direction, whether towards destination or back towards reversal target
(shift timer expiring), will count as a value of 2 transitions towards the 30 segment transitions to go
into default mode as defined above. Current attempt limit values are 30 transitions in 30 seconds
and default mode values are 3 transitions every 15 seconds for 5 minutes.

Hood Sensor/Switch (For Alarm): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The hood ajar switch is a normally closed, single pole, spring-loaded plunger actuated switch. This
switch has two unique versions that are used in two different applications. One switch is used only
on vehicles equipped with the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) system for sale in certain export markets
where protection of the underhood area is required equipment. The second switch is used only on
domestic vehicles equipped with an optional remote starter system.
The molded plastic switch body (5) has an integral molded connector receptacle (1) on the lower
end containing two terminal pins. The switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a
dedicated take out of the headlamp and dash wire harness. Two integral latches (2) lock the switch
into a keyed mounting hole in the stamped steel switch mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is
secured with screws to the inboard side of the right front fender load beam within the engine
compartment. A molded plastic striker secured to the underside of the hood panel inner
reinforcement actuates the switch plunger as the hood panel is closed.
The switch plunger (3) extends through a mounting collar (4) and a sleeve-like retainer ring on the
upper end of the switch body. The retainer ring has a one time, self-adjustment feature that is
activated after the switch is installed by closing the hood. The retainer ring is also color-coded to
aid in identifying the switch application. A dark brown retainer ring identifies the underhood security
switch application, while a white retainer ring identifies the remote starter system application.
An installed hood ajar switch cannot be readjusted or repaired. If the switch is damaged,
ineffective, or requires readjustment, it must be replaced with a new unit. The hood ajar switch
striker is not intended for reuse. If the striker is removed from the hood inner reinforcement for any
reason, it must be replaced with a new unit.

Hood Sensor/Switch (For Alarm): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The hood ajar switches are interchangeable physically, but not functionally. In each case, the hood
ajar switch is a normally closed switch that is held open as the spring-loaded switch plunger is
depressed by the striker on the inner hood panel reinforcement when the hood panel is closed and
latched. When the hood is opened, the spring-loaded switch plunger extends from the switch body
and the switch contacts are closed.
In the underhood security application (export vehicles only - dark brown retainer ring), the switch is
connected in series between ground and the hood ajar switch sense input of the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM). The TIPM uses an internal resistor pull up to monitor the state of the hood
ajar switch contacts.
In the remote starter system application (domestic vehicles only - white retainer ring) the switch has
a 1 kilohm diagnostic resistor connected in parallel to the switch contacts between the two switch
terminals. The switch is connected in series between an output of the TIPM and the hood ajar
switch sense input of the TIPM. The TIPM continually monitors this circuit and will store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that it detects.
The components of the switch self-adjustment feature include an integral stop on the shaft of the
plunger and a ribbed, ratcheting sleeve-like retainer ring at the top of the switch body from which
the plunger extends. With the switch mounting collar secured in its mounting bracket, the plunger is
depressed by the striker on the hood inner reinforcement as the hood is closed. As the plunger is
depressed, the plunger stop contacts the top of the retainer ring and it is driven downward,
ratcheting through the switch mounting collar until the hood is fully closed and latched. The ribs on
the retainer ring are engaged within the mounting collar to maintain this adjusted position.
The hood ajar switch as well as the hard wired circuits between the switch and the TIPM may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information. However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
the electronic controls or communication between modules and other devices related to hood ajar
switch operation that provide some features of the export vehicle theft or domestic remote starter
systems. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the electronic controls and
communication related to hood ajar switch operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Remote Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The six switches in the two remote radio switch units are normally open, resistor multiplexed
momentary switches that are hard wired to the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) through the
clockspring. The TIPM sends a five volt reference signal to both switch units on one circuit, and
senses the status of all of the switches by reading the voltage drop on a second circuit.
When the TIPM senses an input (voltage drop) from any one of the remote radio switches, it sends
the proper switch status messages on the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI) data bus
network to the radio receiver. The electronic circuitry within the radio receiver is programmed to
respond to these remote radio switch status messages by adjusting the radio settings as
requested. For diagnosis of the TIPM or the PCI data bus, the use of a scan tool and the proper
Diagnostic Procedures information is recommended.

Hood Sensor/Switch (For Alarm): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The hood ajar switch is a normally closed, single pole, spring-loaded plunger actuated switch. This
switch has two unique versions that are used in two different applications. One switch is used only
on vehicles equipped with the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) system for sale in certain export markets
where protection of the underhood area is required equipment. The second switch is used only on
domestic vehicles equipped with an optional remote starter system.
The molded plastic switch body (5) has an integral molded connector receptacle (1) on the lower
end containing two terminal pins. The switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a
dedicated take out of the headlamp and dash wire harness. Two integral latches (2) lock the switch
into a keyed mounting hole in the stamped steel switch mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is
secured with screws to the inboard side of the right front fender load beam within the engine
compartment. A molded plastic striker secured to the underside of the hood panel inner
reinforcement actuates the switch plunger as the hood panel is closed.
The switch plunger (3) extends through a mounting collar (4) and a sleeve-like retainer ring on the
upper end of the switch body. The retainer ring has a one time, self-adjustment feature that is
activated after the switch is installed by closing the hood. The retainer ring is also color-coded to
aid in identifying the switch application. A dark brown retainer ring identifies the underhood security
switch application, while a white retainer ring identifies the remote starter system application.
An installed hood ajar switch cannot be readjusted or repaired. If the switch is damaged,
ineffective, or requires readjustment, it must be replaced with a new unit. The hood ajar switch
striker is not intended for reuse. If the striker is removed from the hood inner reinforcement for any
reason, it must be replaced with a new unit.

Hood Sensor/Switch (For Alarm): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The hood ajar switches are interchangeable physically, but not functionally. In each case, the hood
ajar switch is a normally closed switch that is held open as the spring-loaded switch plunger is
depressed by the striker on the inner hood panel reinforcement when the hood panel is closed and
latched. When the hood is opened, the spring-loaded switch plunger extends from the switch body
and the switch contacts are closed.
In the underhood security application (export vehicles only - dark brown retainer ring), the switch is
connected in series between ground and the hood ajar switch sense input of the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM). The TIPM uses an internal resistor pull up to monitor the state of the hood
ajar switch contacts.
In the remote starter system application (domestic vehicles only - white retainer ring) the switch has
a 1 kilohm diagnostic resistor connected in parallel to the switch contacts between the two switch
terminals. The switch is connected in series between an output of the TIPM and the hood ajar
switch sense input of the TIPM. The TIPM continually monitors this circuit and will store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that it detects.
The components of the switch self-adjustment feature include an integral stop on the shaft of the
plunger and a ribbed, ratcheting sleeve-like retainer ring at the top of the switch body from which
the plunger extends. With the switch mounting collar secured in its mounting bracket, the plunger is
depressed by the striker on the hood inner reinforcement as the hood is closed. As the plunger is
depressed, the plunger stop contacts the top of the retainer ring and it is driven downward,
ratcheting through the switch mounting collar until the hood is fully closed and latched. The ribs on
the retainer ring are engaged within the mounting collar to maintain this adjusted position.
The hood ajar switch as well as the hard wired circuits between the switch and the TIPM may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information. However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
the electronic controls or communication between modules and other devices related to hood ajar
switch operation that provide some features of the export vehicle theft or domestic remote starter
systems. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the electronic controls and
communication related to hood ajar switch operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Power Door Lock Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A window/lock switch is used on all models equipped with power locks, power windows, and power
mirrors. The window/lock switch houses the following switches:
- Power Lock Switch - A two-way, momentary, resistor multiplexed switch to control the power lock
system.
- Power Mirror Selector Switch - A three-position rocker switch selects the right or left power mirror
for adjustment, or turns the power mirror system Off.
- Power Mirror Adjustment Switches - Four momentary, arrowhead shaped, directional switches
allow the driver to adjust the selected power mirror in the Up, Down, Right, or Left directions.
- Power Window Lockout Switch - A two-way, latching, push-button switch allows the vehicle
operator to lock out the power window switches on each passenger door so that the passenger
door power windows may be operated only from the master switches.
- Power Window Switches - A two-way, momentary power window switch for the driver side front
door. This switch also has a second detent in the Down direction and internal circuitry to provide an
Auto-Down feature for the driver side front door power window. In addition to the power window
switch for its own door, there are individual master switches for each passenger door power
window.
The window/lock switch also incorporates several green Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that
illuminate the power lock and power window switch paddles, and the power mirror switch
directional buttons to improve switch visibility.

Power Door Lock Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The window/lock switch combines a power lock switch, a driver power window switch with an
Auto-down feature, master switches for each passenger door power window, a power window
lockout switch, a power mirror selector switch, and four power mirror adjustment switches in a
single unit.
Power Lock Switch
The power lock switch circuitry is connected in series between ground and the driver door switch
mux input of the instrument cluster. Each power lock switch position (Lock, Unlock, and Neutral)
provides a different resistance value to the instrument cluster input, which allows the instrument
cluster to sense the switch position. Based upon the power lock switch input, the instrument cluster
controls the battery and ground feed outputs to the individual power lock motors to lock or unlock
the door latches. The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the power lock switch is connected to battery
current through the power window circuit breaker in the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) on
a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit. The switch will be illuminated whenever the ignition
switch is in the On or Accessory positions.
Power Window Switches
The power window switch circuitry is connected to battery current through a circuit breaker in the
Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) on a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit so that
the power windows will operate whenever the ignition switch is in the On or Accessory positions.
Each two-way, momentary master passenger power window switch provides battery current and
ground to the individual power window switches on each passenger door so that the power window
switch controls the battery current and ground feeds to its respective power window motor. The
switch for the driver side front door power window is labeled "Auto" and includes an auto-down
feature. When this switch is depressed to a second momentary detent position and released, the
driver door power window is automatically operated through an internal circuit and relay to its fully
lowered position. The Auto-down event is cancelled if the switch paddle is depressed a second
time in either the Up or Down direction. When the two position window lockout switch is depressed
and latched in the lockout position, the battery current feed to each of the individual passenger
power window switches is interrupted so that the passenger door power windows can only be
operated from the master switches. The window lockout switch also controls the battery current
feed for the LED in each passenger power window switch so that the switch will not be illuminated
when it is locked out.
Power Mirror Switches
The power mirror switch circuitry is connected to battery current through a fuse in the TIPM on a
fused B(+) circuit so that the power mirrors remain operational regardless of the ignition switch
position. A rocker type selector switch has three positions, one to select the right mirror, one to
select the left mirror, and a neutral Off position. After the right or left mirror is selected, one of four
directional buttons is depressed to move the selected mirror Up, Down, Right or Left. The power
mirror switch circuitry controls the battery current and ground feeds to each of the four (two in each
mirror head) power mirror motors. The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the power mirror switch is
connected to battery current through the power window circuit breaker in the TIPM on a fused
ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit so that the switch directional buttons will be illuminated
whenever the ignition switch is in the On or Accessory positions.

POWER LOCK SWITCH
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) illumination lamp of the power lock switch receives battery current
through a fuse in the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) on a fused ignition switch output
(run) circuit. The power lock switch on the driver side front door trim panel is integral to the
window/lock switch. See: Diagnosis and Testing If the power lock switch operates, but the LED is
inoperative, check for battery current at the switch with the ignition switch in the On position. If OK,
replace the faulty switch. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Remove the power lock switch from the door
trim panel. Disconnect the door wire harness
connector for the power lock switch from the switch connector receptacle.
2. Test the power lock switch resistance. See the Power Lock Switch Test chart to determine if the
resistance is correct for the switch in each switch
position. If not OK, replace the faulty power lock switch as required.

Power Door Lock Switch: Testing and Inspection Diagnosis and Testing
WINDOW/LOCK SWITCH
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) illumination lamps for all of the Driver Door Module (DDM) power
window, power lock, and power mirror switches receive battery current through the power window
circuit breaker in the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM). If all of the LED's are inoperative in
the DDM, be certain to diagnose the power window system before replacing the switch unit. See:
Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Diagnostic
Trouble Code Tests and Associated Procedures . If only one LED in the DDM is inoperative,
replace the faulty DDM. If the driver side front door power window operates in a normal manner,
but the Auto-Down feature is inoperative, replace the faulty DDM. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Remove the DDM from the door trim panel.
Disconnect the door wire harness connectors for the
DDM from the DDM connector receptacles.
2. Test the DDM switch continuity. See the Driver Door Module Switch Tests chart to determine if
the continuity is correct for the suspect switches
in each switch position. If not OK, replace the faulty DDM as required.

Power Seat Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The power seats on this vehicle can be adjusted in eight different directions, up, down, front up,
front down, rear up, rear down, rearward and forward. The power seat switch is located on the
outboard side of the seat cushion on the seat cushion side shield.
The individual switches in the power seat switch assembly cannot be repaired. If one switch is
damaged or inoperative, the entire power seat switch assembly must be replaced.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 904
Power Seat Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When a power switch control knob or knobs are actuated, a battery feed and a ground path are
applied through the switch contacts to the power seat track adjuster motor. The selected adjuster
motor operates to move the seat track or recliner through its drive unit in the selected direction until
the switch is released, or until the travel limit of the adjuster is reached. When the switch is moved
in the opposite direction, the battery feed and ground path to the motor are reversed through the
switch contacts. This causes the adjuster motor to run in the opposite direction.
No power seat switch should be held applied in any direction after the adjuster has reached its
travel limit. The power seat adjuster motors each contain a self-resetting circuit breaker to protect
them from overload. However, consecutive or frequent resetting of the circuit breaker must not be
allowed to continue, or the motor may be damaged.

Seat Heater Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Momentary contact push button switch/modules mounted in the instrument panel center bezel
operate the heated seat system. Each heated seat switch/module has two Light-Emitting Diode
(LED) indicator lamps, which indicate the selected level (Low or High) of the seat heater. Pressing
the switch/module button initiates heat. Heat remains on until switched off or until the ignition is
turned off. If switched off by the ignition, a switch/module button must be pressed to restart heating.
The switch/modules contain the solid state electronic control and diagnostic logic circuitry for the
heated seat system. If any of the heated seat elements are inoperative or damaged one or more of
the LED lamps in the switch/module for the effected seat will flash.
The LED indicator lamps in each heated seat switch/module cannot be repaired. If the LED lamps
are faulty or damaged, or the switch/module is inoperative or damaged the individual heated seat
switch/module assembly must be replaced. See: Service and Repair/Heated Seat Switch Removal for the switch/module replacement procedure.

Seat Heater Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
A Heated Seat Switch/Module is used to control the heated seat system. The heated seat
switch/modules receive battery current through a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit when the
ignition switch is in the On position. The switch/module responds to heated seat switch/module
button input and ignition switch status inputs by controlling the 12v output to the front seat heating
elements through integral solid-state relays.
When either of the heated seat switch/module buttons are depressed the heating element for the
selected seat is energized. Amber Light Emitting Diodes (LEDS) on the side of each switch/module
indicate the level of heat in use: Two LEDs are illuminated for high, one for low, and none for off.
Pressing the switch/module button once will select high-level heating. Pressing the button a second
time will select low-level heating. Pressing the button a third time will shut the heating elements off.
The heated seat switch/module energizes an integral solid-state relay, which supplies battery
current to the heating elements. When high-temperature heating is selected, the heaters provide a
boosted heat level during the first four minutes of operation after heating is activated. The heat
output then drops to the normal high-temperature level. If high-level heating is selected, the control
system will automatically switch to the low level after two hours of continuous operation. At that
time, the number of illuminated LEDs changes from two to one, indicating the change. Operation
on the low setting will continue indefinitely until the switch/module button is pushed to turn the
system off.

Parking Brake Warning Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The park brake switch (1) is located on the park brake lever mechanism on the cowl side inner
panel below the instrument panel, to the left of the steering column. This switch includes a
spade-type output terminal (3) that connects the switch to the vehicle electrical system through a
dedicated take out and connector of the body wire harness. The output terminal is integral to the
stationary contact within a molded plastic insulator.
A locating tab on the insulator engages a slot in the park brake lever mechanism for positive switch
location. External to the insulator is a movable leaf contact with an integral grounding lug (4) on
one end and an integral actuating lever and follower (2) on the opposite end. The switch is secured
to and grounded by a single screw to the park brake lever mechanism.
The park brake switch cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, it must be
replaced.

Parking Brake Warning Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The park brake switch is a normally closed, mechanically actuated leaf contact switch that is
operated by the park brake lever mechanism. The switch is grounded through its mounting to the
park brake lever mechanism and provides a ground input to the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) on a park brake switch sense
circuit whenever the park brake is applied, and opens this circuit whenever the park brake is
released. The park brake switch sense input to the EMIC is used for control of the brake indicator
and may also be used as a logic input for other electronic features in the vehicle.
The park brake switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

PARK BRAKE SWITCH
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column,
airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system
capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to
disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag
deployment.
NOTE: If the brake indicator stays ON with the ignition switch in the ON position and the park brake
released, or comes ON while driving, the brake system must be diagnosed and repaired prior to
performing the following tests. Refer to appropriate testing. If no brake system problem is found,
the following procedures will help to locate a shorted or open park brake switch sense circuit, or an
ineffective park brake switch.
INDICATOR ILLUMINATES DURING BULB TEST, BUT DOES NOT WHEN PARK BRAKE
APPLIED
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Disconnect the body wire harness connector
for the park brake switch from the switch terminal.
Apply the parking brake. Check for continuity between the park brake switch terminal and a good
ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to STEP 2. If not OK, replace the ineffective park
brake switch.
2. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the instrument
cluster from the cluster connector receptacle. Check for
continuity between the park brake switch sense circuit cavities of the body wire harness connector
for the park brake switch and the instrument panel wire harness connector for the instrument
cluster. There should be continuity. If not OK, repair the open park brake switch sense circuit
between the park brake switch and the instrument cluster as required.
INDICATOR REMAINS ILLUMINATED - BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKS OKAY
3. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Disconnect the body wire harness connector
for the park brake switch from the switch terminal.
Check for continuity between the terminal of the park brake switch and a good ground. There
should be no continuity with the park brake released, and continuity with the park brake applied. If
OK, go to STEP 2. If not OK, replace the ineffective park brake switch.
4. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the instrument
cluster from the cluster connector receptacle. Check for
continuity between the park brake switch sense circuit cavity of the body wire harness connector
for the park brake switch and a good ground. There should be no continuity. If not OK, repair the
shorted park brake switch sense circuit between the park brake switch and the instrument cluster
as required.

Wheel Speed Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The ABS brake system uses 3 wheel speed sensors. A sensor is mounted to each front
hub/bearings. The third sensor is mounted on top of the rear axle differential housing.

Wheel Speed Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Wheel Speed Sensor consists of a magnet (1) surrounded by windings from a single strand of
wire (5). The sensor sends a small AC signal to the ABM. This signal is generated by magnetic
induction. The magnetic induction is created when a toothed sensor ring (exciter ring or tone
wheel) (4) passes the stationary magnetic WSS.
When the ring gear is rotated, the exciter ring (4) passes the tip of the WSS. As the exciter ring
tooth approaches the tip of the WSS, the magnetic lines of force expand, causing the magnetic
field to cut across the sensor's windings (5). This, in turn causes current to flow through the WSS
circuit in one direction. When the exciter ring tooth moves away from the sensor tip, the magnetic
lines of force collapse cutting the winding in the opposite direction. This causes the current to flow
in the opposite direction. Every time a tooth of the exciter ring passes the tip of the WSS, an AC
signal is generated current. Each AC signal (positive to negative signal or squarewave) is
interpreted by the ABM. It then compares the frequency of the sinewave to a time value to calculate
vehicle speed. The ABM continues to monitor the frequency to determine a deceleration rate that
would indicate a possible wheel-locking tendency.
The signal strength of any magnetic induction sensor is directly affected by:
- Magnetic field strength; the stronger the magnetic field, the stronger the signal
- Number of windings in the sensor; more windings provide a stronger signal
- Exciter ring speed; the faster the exciter ring/tone wheel rotates, the stronger the signal will be
- Distance (3) "air gap" between the exciter ring teeth and WSS; the closer the WSS is to the
exciter ring/tone wheel, the stronger the signal will be.
The WSS is not adjustable. A clearance specification has been established for manufacturing
tolerances. If the clearance is not within these specifications, then either the WSS or other
components may be damaged. The clearance between the WSS and the exciter ring is 0.005 0.050 in.
The assembly plant performs a "Rolls Test" on every vehicle that leaves the assembly plant. One
of the test performed is a test of the WSS. To properly test the sensor, the assembly plant connects
test equipment to the Data Link Connector (DLC). This connector is located to the right of the
steering column and attached to the lower portion of the instrument panel. The rolls test terminal is
spliced to the WSS circuit. The vehicle is then driven on a set of rollers and the WSS output is
monitored for proper operation.

Wheel Speed Sensor: Testing and Inspection
REAR WHEEL ANTILOCK
Diagnosis of base brake conditions which are mechanical in nature should be performed first. This
includes brake noise, lack of power assist, parking brake, or vehicle vibration during normal
braking.
The RWAL brake system performs several self-tests every time the ignition switch is turned on and
the vehicle is driven. The CAB monitors the system inputs and outputs circuits to verify the system
is operating properly. If the CAB senses a malfunction in the system it will set a DTC into memory
and trigger the warning lamp.
NOTE: A scan tool is used to diagnose the RWAL system. For test procedures refer to the ABS
Electrical Diagnostic Section.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The evaporator temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the conditioned air downstream of
the A/C evaporator and supplies an input signal to the A/C-heater control. The A/C-heater control
uses the evaporator temperature sensor input signal to optimize A/C system performance and to
protect the A/C system from evaporator freezing. The evaporator temperature sensor will change
its internal resistance in response to the temperatures it monitors and is connected to the
A/C-heater control through sensor ground circuit and a 5-volt reference signal circuit. As the
temperature of the A/C evaporator decreases, the internal resistance of the evaporator temperature
sensor decreases.
The A/C-heater control uses the monitored voltage reading as an indication of evaporator
temperature. The A/C-heater control is programmed to respond to this input by requesting the
powertrain control module (PCM) or the engine control module (ECM) (depending on engine
application) to cycle the A/C compressor clutch as necessary to optimize A/C system performance
and to protect the A/C system from evaporator freezing.
The evaporator temperature sensor is diagnosed using a scan tool See: Heating and Air
Conditioning/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Heating-A/C
System Diagnostics .
The evaporator temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found
inoperative or damaged.

Refrigerant Pressure Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The A/C pressure transducer (1) is a switch that is installed on a fitting located on the A/C
discharge line. An internally threaded fitting on the A/C pressure transducer connects it to the
externally threaded Schrader-type fitting on the A/C discharge line. A rubber O-ring seals the
connection between the A/C pressure transducer and the discharge line fitting. The A/C pressure
transducer is connected to the vehicle electrical system by a molded plastic connector with three
terminals.

Refrigerant Pressure Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The A/C pressure transducer monitors the pressures in the high side of the refrigerant system
through its connection to a fitting on the A/C discharge line and its internal resistance changes in
response to the pressures it monitors. The powertrain control module (PCM) or the engine control
module (ECM) (depending on engine application) provides a five volt reference signal and a sensor
ground to the A/C pressure transducer, then monitors the output voltage of the transducer on a
sensor return circuit to determine refrigerant pressure. The PCM/ECM is programmed to respond
to this and other sensor inputs by controlling the operation of the A/C compressor clutch and the
radiator cooling fan to help optimize A/C system performance and to protect the system
components from damage. The PCM/ECM will disengage the A/C compressor clutch when high
side pressure rises above 3172 kPa (460 psi) and re-engage the clutch when high side pressure
drops below 1999 kPa (290 psi). The A/C pressure transducer will also disengage the A/C
compressor clutch if the high side pressure drops below 193 kPa (28 psi) and will re-engage the
clutch when the high side pressure rises above 234 kPa (34 psi). If the refrigerant pressure rises
above 1655 kPa (240 psi), the PCM will actuate the cooling fan. The A/C pressure transducer
signal to the PCM/ECM also prevents the A/C compressor clutch from engaging when ambient
temperatures are below about 10° C (50° F) due to the pressure/temperature relationship of the
refrigerant.
A Schrader-type valve in the A/C discharge line fitting permits the A/C pressure transducer to be
removed or installed without disturbing the refrigerant in the A/C system.
The A/C pressure transducer is diagnosed using a scan tool.
The A/C pressure transducer cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found
inoperative or damaged.

DESCRIPTION
This vehicle has up to four door ajar switches, one for each door. Each switch is concealed within
and integral to its respective door latch unit. The switches are momentary leaf contact-type units
that are actuated by the mechanisms internal to the door latch. A short pigtail wire and connector
on each door latch connects the door ajar switch to the vehicle electrical system through its
respective door wire harness.
The door ajar switches cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the door latch
unit must be replaced. See: Body and Frame/Doors, Hood and Trunk/Doors/Front Door/Front Door

Door Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The door ajar switches are actuated by the mechanisms internal to the door latch. When a door is
closed and properly latched, its door ajar switch is an open circuit. When a door is open or only
partially latched, the door ajar switch is a closed circuit. The door ajar switches are hard wired in
series between a body ground and the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known
as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
The EMIC reads the hard wired door ajar switch inputs through internal pull-ups, then uses these
inputs to control many electronic functions and features of the vehicle. The EMIC also sends the
proper electronic door ajar switch status messages to other electronic modules in the vehicle over
the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The door ajar switches as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switches may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Outside Temperature Display Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable resistor that operates on a five-volt reference signal
sent by the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM). The resistance in the sensor changes as
temperature changes, changing the temperature sensor signal circuit voltage to the TIPM. Based
upon the resistance in the sensor, the TIPM senses a specific voltage on the temperature sensor
signal circuit. The TIPM then translates the voltage into a temperature reading that it sent over the
Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus circuit to other modules utilizing
temperature information.

Outside Temperature Display Sensor: Testing and Inspection
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The temperature function is supported by the ambient temperature sensor, a wiring circuit, and the
Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM). When the sensor is exposed to temperatures above 60°
C (140° F), or if the sensor circuit is shorted, 60° C (130/140° F) will appear in the display in place
of the temperature. When the sensor is exposed to temperatures below - 40° C (- 40° F) or if the
sensor circuit is open, - 40° C (- 40° F) will appear in the display for Compass Mini - Trip Computer
(CMTC) equipped vehicles and - - ° C (- - ° F) will be displayed on Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) equipped vehicles.
The ambient temperature sensor circuit can be diagnosed using the following Temperature System
Test, and Sensor Test. If the temperature sensor and circuit are confirmed to be OK, but the
temperature display is inoperative or incorrect, test the Compass Mini - Trip Computer (CMTC),
See: Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators/Compass/Testing and Inspection or
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), See: Accessories and Optional
Equipment/Driver/Vehicle Information Display/Testing and Inspection as applicable.
TEMPERATURE SYSTEM TEST
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate 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
connectors, splices and grounds.
NOTE: Temperature readings do not update immediately. Allow up to 60 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the On position for readings to meet test specifications.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the Off position. Disconnect the wire harness connector from the
ambient temperature sensor. 2. Turn the ignition switch to the On position. The CMTC display
should now read - 40° C (- 40° F) or the EVIC display should now read - - ° C (- ° F). If OK, go to STEP 3. If not OK, repair the shorted sensor return circuit or ambient temperature
sensor signal circuit to the ambient temperature sensor as required.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the Off position. Taking care not to damage the wire terminals,
connect a jumper wire between the two terminals in the
body half of the ambient temperature sensor harness connector.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the On position. The CMTC or EVIC display should now read 60° C
(130/140° F). If OK, go to STEP 5. If not OK,
repair the open sensor return circuit or ambient temperature sensor signal circuit to the ambient
temperature sensor as required.
5. Clear any Diagnostic Trouble Codes that may have been set while performing the test. Perform
further diagnosis of the Compass Mini - Trip
Computer (CMTC), See: Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators/Compass/Testing and
Inspection or Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), See: Accessories and Optional
Equipment/Driver/Vehicle Information Display/Testing and Inspection as applicable.
SENSOR TEST
1. Turn the ignition switch to the Off position. Disconnect the ambient temperature sensor harness
connector. 2. Measure the resistance of the ambient temperature sensor. At - 40° C (- 40° F), the
sensor resistance is 336 Kohms. At 55° C (130° F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 Kohms. The sensor resistance should read between these two values. If OK,
perform further diagnosis of the Compass Mini - Trip Computer (CMTC), See: Instrument Panel,

Parking Brake Warning Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The park brake switch is a normally closed, mechanically actuated leaf contact switch that is
operated by the park brake lever mechanism. The switch is grounded through its mounting to the
park brake lever mechanism and provides a ground input to the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) on a park brake switch sense
circuit whenever the park brake is applied, and opens this circuit whenever the park brake is
released. The park brake switch sense input to the EMIC is used for control of the brake indicator
and may also be used as a logic input for other electronic features in the vehicle.
The park brake switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column,
airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system
capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to
disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag
deployment.
NOTE: If the brake indicator stays ON with the ignition switch in the ON position and the park brake
released, or comes ON while driving, the brake system must be diagnosed and repaired prior to
performing the following tests. Refer to appropriate testing. If no brake system problem is found,
the following procedures will help to locate a shorted or open park brake switch sense circuit, or an
ineffective park brake switch.

DESCRIPTION
The Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor (2) is located on the bottom of the fuel filter/water separator
canister (1).

Water In Fuel Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The sensor sends an input to the Engine Control Module (ECM) when it senses water in the fuel
filter/water separator. As the water level in the filter/separator increases, the resistance across the
WIF sensor decreases. This decrease in resistance is sent as a signal to the ECM and compared
to a high water standard value. Once the value reaches 30 to 40 Kohms, the ECM will activate the
water-in-fuel warning lamp through CCD bus circuits. This all takes place when the ignition key is
initially put in the ON position. The ECM continues to monitor the input while the engine is running.

Backup Lamp Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a manual transmission have a normally open, spring-loaded plunger type
backup lamp switch (2). 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.
Refer to the service and diagnostic information for the automatic transmission type installed in the
vehicle.
The backup lamp switch is located in a threaded hole on the side of the manual transmission
housing. The switch has a threaded body and a hex formation near the plunger end of the switch.
An integral connector receptacle at the end of the switch opposite the plunger connects the switch
to the vehicle electrical system through a take out and connector of the engine wire harness. When
installed, only the switch connector and the hex formation are visible on the outside of the
transmission housing.
The backup lamp switch cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire
switch unit must be replaced.

Backup Lamp Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The backup lamp switch controls the flow of battery voltage to the backup lamp bulbs through an
output on the backup lamp feed circuit. The switch plunger is mechanically actuated by the
gearshift mechanism within the transmission, which will depress the switch plunger and close the
switch contacts whenever the REVERSE gear has been selected. The switch receives battery
voltage through a fuse in the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) on a fused ignition switch
output (run) circuit whenever the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The backup lamp switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Brake Light Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The brake lamp switch (2) is a three circuit, spring-loaded plunger actuated switch that is secured
to the steering column support bracket under the instrument panel on the driver side of the vehicle.
The molded plastic switch housing has an integral connector receptacle (1) containing six terminal
pins and featuring a Connector Position Assurance (CPA) lock. The switch is connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out of the instrument panel wire harness.
The switch plunger (3) extends through a mounting collar (4) on one end of the switch housing. The
plunger has a one time telescoping self-adjustment feature that is activated after the switch is
installed by moving an adjustment release lever (5) on the opposite end of the switch housing
clockwise, until it locks into a position that is horizontal and parallel to the connector receptacle.
An installed brake lamp switch cannot be readjusted or repaired. If the switch is damaged,
ineffective, or removed from its mounting position for any reason, it must be replaced with a new
unit.

Brake Light Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The brake lamp switch controls three independent circuits. These circuits are described as follows:
- Brake Lamp Switch Circuit - A normally open brake lamp switch circuit receives a battery voltage
input, and supplies this battery voltage to the brake lamps and the Controller Antilock Brake (CAB)
on a brake lamp switch output circuit only when the brake pedal is depressed (brake lamp switch
plunger released).
- Brake Lamp Switch Signal Circuit - A normally closed brake lamp switch signal circuit receives a
direct path to ground, and supplies this ground input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on a
brake lamp switch sense circuit only when the brake pedal is released (brake lamp switch plunger
is depressed).
- Speed Control Circuit - A normally closed speed control circuit receives a battery voltage input
from the Powertrain Control Module on a speed control supply circuit, and supplies this battery
voltage to the speed control servo solenoids (dump, vacuum, and vent) on a speed control brake
switch output circuit only when the speed control system is turned ON and the brake pedal is
released (brake lamp switch plunger is depressed).
The components of the self-adjusting brake switch plunger consist of a two-piece telescoping
plunger, a split plunger locking collar, and a release wedge. The release lever has a shaft with a
wedge that spreads the plunger locking collar to an open or released position. After the switch is
installed and the brake pedal is released, the plunger telescopes to the correct adjustment position.
When the release lever is moved to the release position, the wedge is disengaged from the locking
collar causing the collar to apply a clamping pressure to the two plunger halves, fixing the plunger
length.
The brake lamp switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Combination Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The multi-function switch (3) is located on the steering column, just below the steering wheel. The
only visible components of the multi-function switch are the control stalk (2) and control knob (1)
that extend through the steering column shrouds on the left side of the column, and the hazard
warning push button (4) that extends through the shroud on the top of the column. The remainder
of the switch including its mounting provisions, its electrical connection, and the turn signal cancel
actuator (5) are concealed beneath the shrouds.
The switch housing and controls are constructed of molded black plastic. Each of the switch
controls has white International Control and Display Symbol graphics applied to it, which clearly
identify its many functions. Three integral locating posts on the switch housing, one on the top and
two on the bottom, slide into channels in a receptacle on the left side of the multi-function switch
mounting housing near the top of the steering column to ensure proper positioning of the switch.
Then two screws secure the switch to the mounting housing. A single integral connector receptacle
containing four terminal pins on the back of the switch housing connects the switch to the vehicle
electrical system through a dedicated take out and connector of the instrument panel wire harness.
The multi-function switch provides the vehicle operator with a control interface for the following
functions:
- Hazard Warning Control - The multi-function switch hazard warning push button provides two
detent positions (ON and OFF) to control the hazard warning lamps.
Headlamp Beam Selection - The multi-function switch control stalk provides detent switching for
selection of the headlamp HIGH or LOW beams. There is also an intermediate momentary position
that allows the headlamp high beam circuits to be momentarily flashed to provide an optical horn
feature (sometimes referred to as flash-to-pass) as an optical signalling device.
- Turn Signal Control - The multi-function switch control stalk provides momentary non-detent (lane
change) switching or detent switching with automatic cancellation for both the left and right turn
signal lamps.
- Washer Control - The multi-function switch control knob provides a momentary WASH position for
washer system operation.
- Wiper Control - The multi-function switch control knob provides two continuous wipe switch
positions, LOW speed or HIGH speed; and an intermittent wipe mode with five delay interval
positions.
The multi-function switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If any function of the switch is ineffective,
or if the switch is damaged, the entire switch must be replaced as a unit.

Combination Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The multi-function switch uses resistor multiplexing to control the many functions and features it
provides using only three hard wired output circuits. The switch receives a clean ground from the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN)
on a multi-function switch return circuit. It then provides outputs to the EMIC on a wash/beam
select switch signal circuit to control washer and headlamp beam selection, on an intermittent wiper
switch signal circuit to control wipers, and on a turn lamps switch signal circuit to control turn signal
and hazard warning functions.
The multi-function switch operates as follows:
- Hazard Warning Control - The hazard warning push button of the multi-function switch is
depressed to activate the hazard warning system, and depressed again to turn the system OFF.
When the push button is actuated, the multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and
the EMIC responds by sending electronic hazard switch status messages to the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. The TIPM then energizes
and flashes or de-energizes both the left and right turn signal circuits to provide the visual hazard
warning.
- Headlamp Beam Selection - The control stalk of the multi-function switch is pulled towards the
steering wheel past a detent to actuate the integral beam select switch circuitry, or to an
intermediate, momentary position before the detent to actuate the optical horn feature. Each time
the control stalk is actuated to a detent position, the opposite headlamp beam from what is
currently selected will be energized. Each time the control stalk is actuated to the momentary
position with the headlamps turned OFF, the headlamp high beams will be illuminated for as long
as the control stalk is held in this position. The multi-function switch provides an output to the
EMIC, and the EMIC responds by sending electronic beam select switch status messages to the
TIPM over the CAN data bus. The TIPM energizes or de-energizes the selected LOW or HIGH
beam circuits.
- Turn Signal Control - The control stalk of the multi-function switch is moved upward to activate the
RIGHT turn signal circuitry, and, downward to activate the LEFT turn signal circuitry. The turn
signal switch has a detent position in each direction that provides turn signals with automatic
cancellation, and an intermediate, momentary position in each direction that automatically provides
three turn signal blinks as a LANE CHANGE feature when the control stalk is tapped or will
energize the turn signals for as long as the control stalk is held in the momentary position. When
the control stalk is moved to a detent turn signal switch position, the cancel actuator extends
toward the center of the steering column. A turn signal cancel cam that is integral to the clockspring
rotates with the steering wheel and the cam lobes contact the cancel actuator when it is extended
from the multi-function switch. When the steering wheel is rotated during a turning maneuver, one
of the two turn signal cancel cam lobes will contact the turn signal cancel actuator. The cancel
actuator latches against the cancel cam rotation in the direction opposite that which is signaled. If
the LEFT turn signal detent is selected, the lobes of the cancel cam will ratchet past the cancel
actuator when the steering wheel is rotated to the left, but will unlatch the cancel actuator as the
steering wheel rotates to the right and returns to center, which will cancel the turn signal event and
release the control stalk from the detent so it returns to the neutral OFF position. When a turn
signal is activated, the multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC
responds by sending electronic turn signal switch status messages to the TIPM over the CAN data
bus. The TIPM energizes and flashes or de-energizes the selected left or right turn signal circuits.
- Washer Control - The control knob on the end of the multi-function switch control stalk is
depressed towards the steering column to momentarily activate the washer pump in the WASH
mode. The washer pump will continue to operate in the washer mode until the control knob is
released. The multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC responds by
sending electronic washer switch status messages to the TIPM over the CAN data bus. The TIPM
responds by energizing or de-energizing the washer pump in the washer mode.
- Wiper Control - The control knob on the end of the multi-function switch control stalk is rotated to
one of the continuous wiper detents, to one of five intermittent wiper detents, or to the OFF position
to select the wiper mode. The multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC
responds by sending electronic wiper switch status messages to the TIPM over the CAN data bus.
The TIPM responds by energizing or de-energizing the wiper motor. The TIPM is programmed to
operate the wiper motor at the selected low or high continuous wipe speed, and to provide the
selected electronically controlled speed-sensitive intermittent wipe or wipe-after-wash mode
features.
The multi-function switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Door Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The door ajar switches are actuated by the mechanisms internal to the door latch. When a door is
closed and properly latched, its door ajar switch is an open circuit. When a door is open or only
partially latched, the door ajar switch is a closed circuit. The door ajar switches are hard wired in
series between a body ground and the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known
as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
The EMIC reads the hard wired door ajar switch inputs through internal pull-ups, then uses these
inputs to control many electronic functions and features of the vehicle. The EMIC also sends the
proper electronic door ajar switch status messages to other electronic modules in the vehicle over
the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The door ajar switches as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switches may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Headlamp Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp switch (1) is located on the instrument panel, to the left of the steering column. Two
different switches are used. The standard switch features a three-position rotary knob (4) for
exterior lighting control, a thumbwheel (2) for panel lamps dimming and interior lighting control, and
a momentary push button (3) for cargo lamp control. An optional switch has a momentary PUSH
function added to the rotary knob for front fog lamp control.
Each of these switches is constructed of molded plastic. The rotary knob is molded plastic and
knurled around its circumference to ease operator control. The thumbwheel is also plastic and
knurled. On vehicles with optional fog lamps the rotary knob also has the text PUSH and an
International Control and Display Symbol icon for Front Fog Light applied to it. The cargo lamp
push button is plastic with a smooth finish and the text CARGO applied to it. The switch face plate
is also labeled with graphics and icons to clearly identify the many functions of the rotary knob and
thumbwheel.
Three screws secure the switch to the back of the cluster bezel through integral mounting flanges
that are molded to each side of the switch housing. The back of the switch housing has an integral
connector receptacle containing terminal pins that connect the switch to the vehicle electrical
system through a dedicated take out and connector of the instrument panel wire harness. A panel
dimmer controlled incandescent bulb soldered to the circuit board within the switch provides back
lighting for visibility at night, but is not serviceable.
The headlamp switch cannot be repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, it must be replaced.

Headlamp Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The headlamp switch uses two resistor multiplexed outputs and one conventional output to control
the many functions and features it provides. The switch receives a clean ground from the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN)
on a headlamp switch return circuit. It then provides outputs to the EMIC on a headlamp switch
signal circuit to control exterior lighting functions, on a panel lamps dimmer signal circuit to control
panel dimmer and interior lighting functions, and on a cargo lamp return circuit to control the cargo
lamps.
The switch illumination circuit receives a path to ground at all times through the left instrument
panel ground circuit. The illumination level is controlled by a Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM) output
received from the EMIC on a headlamp switch illumination control circuit. The EMIC controls this
output based upon the dimmer signal select mux input from the headlamp switch.
The headlamp switch operates as follows:
- Cargo Lamps Control - The cargo lamp push button on the headlamp switch is depressed to
activate or deactivate the cargo lamps. The headlamp switch provides an output to the EMIC, and
the EMIC responds by providing the appropriate cargo lighting control outputs through its internal
cargo lamp driver circuit.
Front Fog Lamps Control - For vehicles so equipped, the rotary knob on the headlamp switch is
depressed to activate or deactivate the optional front fog lamps. The headlamp switch provides an
output to the EMIC, and the EMIC responds by sending electronic fog lamp switch status
messages to the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN)
data bus. The TIPM responds by energizing or de-energizing the front fog lamps and by sending an
electronic message back to the EMIC to control the front fog lamp indicator.
- Exterior Lighting Control - The rotary knob on the headlamp switch is rotated to a detent position
to activate or deactivate the exterior lighting. The headlamp switch provides an output to the EMIC,
and the EMIC responds by sending electronic exterior lighting switch status messages to the TIPM
over the CAN data bus. The TIPM responds by energizing or de-energizing the park lamp and the
high or low beam headlamp circuits, and by sending an electronic message back to the EMIC to
control the high beam indicator. The TIPM also remembers which headlamp beams were last
selected with the multi-function switch, and energizes those beams by default the next time the
headlamps are turned ON.
- Interior Lighting Control - The thumbwheel on the headlamp switch is rotated to the dome
DEFEAT, dome ON, PARADE mode, or one of the six panel dimmer detent positions to control the
interior courtesy/dome and panel lamps. The headlamp switch provides an output to the EMIC, and
the EMIC responds by providing the appropriate interior lighting control outputs through its internal
courtesy lamp driver circuits, electronic dimming level messages to other modules over the CAN
data bus, and the proper PWM outputs to control dimming levels through several panel dimmer
illumination control driver circuits.
The headlamp switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column,
airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system
capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to
disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag
deployment.
1. Position the headlamp switch (4) to the back of the cluster bezel (1). 2. Install and tighten the
three screws (2) that secure the headlamp switch to the cluster bezel. Tighten the screws to 2 Nm
(20 in. lbs.). 3. Position the cluster bezel close enough to the instrument panel to reconnect the
wire harness connector (3) to the back of the headlamp switch. 4. Reinstall the cluster bezel onto
the instrument panel. See: Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators/Instrument Cluster /
Carrier/Service
and Repair/Removal and Replacement/Instrument Panel Cluster Bezel - Installation .
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

DESCRIPTION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is used only on the diesel engine. It is attached to the
battery tray located under the battery.

Battery Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Battery Temperature Sensor - Operation
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temperature and control battery charging rate. This
temperature data, along with data from monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM (ECM Diesel) to
vary the battery charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder temperatures and is
gradually reduced at warmer temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is grounded through the sensor return line. As
temperature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases and the detection voltage at the PCM
increases.
The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Certain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example, disable purge and enable Leak Detection
Pump (LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II monitors are disabled below 20°F.

5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) is located below the fuel injection pump. It is bolted to the
back of the timing gear cover.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

Crankshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) on the diesel engine is attached at the front / left side of the
engine next to the engine harmonic balancer (crankshaft damper).

Crankshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) (5) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after
the engine is running.
The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine
start-up. Once the engine is running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation Operation - Pick Up Models
OPERATION - PICK UP MODELS
Two different six-wire O2 sensors are used. These sensors are titled 1/1 upstream (1), and 1/2
downstream (2).
A separate O2 Sensor Module (1) is also used.
The engine aftertreatment system monitors the O2 content in the diesel engine exhaust. The ECM
monitors the exhaust gases for oxygen content and varies the rich/lean fuel mixture of the intake air
fuel mixture to adjust the system. This diagnostic monitors the status message broadcast by the O2
Sensor Module (1) for the upstream O2 sensor's internal heater circuit. The ECM will set the fault if
it receives a FMI (Failure Mode Indicator) message from the O2 Sensor Module. The ECM will
illuminate the MIL lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. The ECM will turn off the
MIL lamp diagnostic runs and passes in four consecutive drive cycles.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Connector, Ground and Splice Information
DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS
Vehicle/Locations contains the master connector/ground/splice location index charts with
hyperlinks to the applicable location illustrations. The illustrations contain the connector name (or
number)/ground number/splice number and component identification.
The abbreviation T/O is used in the component location section to indicate a point in which the
wiring harness branches out to a component. The abbreviation N/S means Not Shown in the
illustrations
Section Identification and Information
DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual sections. If a component is most likely found in a
particular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Powertrain Management > Sensors and
Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 1709
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

EGR Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation-Cab/Chassis Models
OPERATION-CAB/CHASSIS MODELS
The EGR Temperature Sensor (1) is located on the EGR crossover tube (6) near the EGR valve.
The EGR temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor used to measure the
temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler.
The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

Air Bag Deactivation Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The passenger airbag on/off switch (1) is standard equipment on all standard cab versions of this
vehicle (except light-duty DR 1500) equipped with the dual front airbag system. This switch is a
two-position, resistor multiplexed switch with a single integral amber Light-Emitting Diode (LED),
and a non-coded key cylinder-type actuator. The switch is located in the lower right corner of the
instrument panel center bezel, near the center of the instrument panel.
When the switch is in its installed position, the only components visible through the dedicated
opening of the center bezel are the switch bezel (2) and lens, the nomenclature imprinted on the
lens, and the key cylinder actuator (3). The OFF position nomenclature of the switch is illuminated
and visible only when that switch position is selected. The ON position of the switch is neither
visible or illuminated but can be determined by the orientation of the slot of the key cylinder
actuator. The remainder of the switch is concealed behind the switch bezel and the instrument
panel center bezel.
The passenger airbag on/off switch housing is constructed of molded plastic and has three integral
mounting tabs. These mounting tabs are used to secure the switch to the back of the molded
plastic switch bezel with three small screws. The molded plastic switch bezel also has three
integral mounting tabs that are used to secure the switch and bezel unit to the instrument panel
center bezel with three additional screws.
A molded plastic connector receptacle on the back of the switch housing connects the switch to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and connector of the instrument panel wire
harness. The molded plastic harness connector insulator is keyed and latched to ensure proper
and secure switch electrical connections.
The passenger airbag on/off switch cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged,
the switch must be replaced.

Air Bag Deactivation Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The passenger airbag on/off switch allows the customer to turn the passenger airbag function ON
or OFF to accommodate certain uses of the right front seating position where airbag protection may
not be desired.
The OFF indicator of the switch will be illuminated whenever the switch is turned to the OFF
position and the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The ignition key is the only key or object that should ever be inserted into the key cylinder actuator
of the switch. The on/off switch requires only a partial key insertion to fully depress a spring-loaded
locking plunger. The spring-loaded locking plunger prevents the user from leaving the key in the
switch. The key will be automatically ejected when force is not applied. To actuate the passenger
airbag on/off switch, insert the ignition key into the switch key actuator far enough to fully depress
the plunger, then rotate the actuator to the desired switch position.
When the switch key actuator is rotated to its clockwise stop (the key actuator slot will be aligned
with the OFF nomenclature), the OFF indicator is illuminated and the passenger airbag is disabled.
When the switch is rotated to its counterclockwise stop (the key actuator slot will be in a vertical
position) the OFF indicator will be extinguished and the passenger airbag is enabled. The OFF
indicator and the enabling or disabling of the passenger airbag is controlled electronically by the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) based upon inputs it receives from the on/off switch.
The passenger airbag on/off switch connects one of two internal resistors in series between the
passenger airbag mux switch sense and passenger airbag mux switch return circuits of the ORC.
The ORC continually monitors the resistance in these circuits to determine the switch position that
has been selected. When the switch is in the OFF position, the ORC provides a ground input to the
OFF indicator through the passenger airbag indicator driver circuit, which energizes the
Light-Emitting Diode (LED) that illuminates the indicator. The ORC will store a Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) for any fault it detects in the passenger airbag on/off switch or OFF indicator circuits,
and will illuminate the airbag indicator in the instrument cluster if a fault is detected.
The hard wired circuits between the passenger airbag on/off switch and the ORC may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. However, conventional diagnostic
methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the passenger airbag on/off switch or the
electronic controls and communication between other modules and devices that provide some
features of the supplemental restraint system. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the passenger airbag on/off switch or the electronic controls and communication related
to passenger airbag on/off switch operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag
deployment.
NOTE: A passenger airbag on/off switch is used only on standard cab vehicles (except light-duty
DR 1500) equipped with dual front airbags. Quad cab, mega cab and light-duty DR 1500 standard
cab vehicles have a cubby bin installed in the instrument panel center bezel in place of the on/off
switch.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before further service. 2. Remove the center bezel (1) from the instrument panel. See:
Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Dashboard / Instrument Panel/Service and
Repair/Instrument Panel Center Bezel - Removal .
3. From the back of the center bezel, remove the three screws (2) that secure the passenger airbag
on/off switch and bezel unit (3) to the back of the
center bezel.
4. Remove the passenger airbag on/off switch and bezel from the center bezel as a unit.

Impact Sensor: Description and Operation Description
Front
FRONT
Two front impact sensors (1) are used on this vehicle, one each for the left and right sides of the
vehicle. These sensors are mounted remotely from the impact sensor that is internal to the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC). Each front impact sensor is secured with a screw to the back
of the right or left end of the lower radiator crossmember within the engine compartment. The
sensor housing has an integral connector receptacle (4), an integral anti-rotation pin (3), and an
integral mounting hole (2) with a metal sleeve to provide crush protection.
The right and left front impact sensors are identical in construction and calibration. A cavity in the
center of the molded black plastic impact sensor housing contains the electronic circuitry of the
sensor which includes an electronic communication chip and an electronic impact sensor. Potting
material fills the cavity to seal and protect the internal electronic circuitry and components. The
front impact sensors are each connected to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the headlamp and dash wire harness.
The front impact sensors cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if damaged or ineffective, they must
be replaced.
Side
SIDE
Two side impact sensors (1) are used on this vehicle when it is equipped with the optional side
curtain airbags, one each for the left and right sides of the vehicle. These sensors are mounted
remotely from the impact sensor that is internal to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC). Each
side sensor is secured with a nut within the right or left B-pillar just above the front seat belt
retractors and behind the lower B-pillar trim within the passenger compartment. The sensor
housing has an integral connector receptacle (2), an integral mounting stud (3), and an integral
anti-rotation pin.
The right and left side impact sensors are identical in construction and calibration. A cavity in the
center of the molded plastic impact sensor housing contains the electronic circuitry of the sensor
which includes an electronic communication chip and an electronic impact sensor. Potting material
fills the cavity to seal and protect the internal electronic circuitry and components. The side impact
sensors are each connected to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and
connector of the body wire harness.
The side impact sensors cannot be repaired or adjusted and, if damaged or ineffective, they must
be replaced.

Impact Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
Front
FRONT
The front impact sensors are electronic accelerometers that sense the rate of vehicle deceleration,
which provides verification of the direction and severity of an impact. Each sensor also contains an
electronic communication chip that allows the unit to communicate the sensor status as well as
sensor fault information to the microprocessor in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
The ORC microprocessor continuously monitors all of the passive restraint system electrical
circuits to determine the system readiness. If the ORC detects a monitored system fault, it sets a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and controls the airbag indicator operation accordingly. The impact
sensors each receive battery current and ground through dedicated left and right sensor plus and
minus circuits from the ORC. The impact sensors and the ORC communicate by modulating the
voltage in the sensor plus circuit.
The hard wired circuits between the front impact sensors and the ORC may be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the impact
sensors or the electronic controls or communication between other modules and devices that
provide features of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the impact sensors or the electronic controls and communication
related to front impact sensor operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

Seat Belt Buckle Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with a driver side seat belt switch that is a small, normally open, single
pole, single throw, leaf contact, momentary switch. The driver side seat belt switch is integral to the
buckle (1) of the driver side front seat belt buckle, which is located on a stamped steel stanchion
secured by a screw (3) to the inboard side of the driver side front seat cushion frame.
The seat belt switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a two-lead pigtail wire
and connector (4) on the seat belt buckle-half, which is connected to a wire harness connector and
take out of the seat wire harness routed beneath the driver side front seat cushion in the passenger
compartment.
The seat belt switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or damaged, the entire driver side
front seat belt buckle-half unit must be replaced.

Seat Belt Buckle Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The driver side seat belt switch is designed to control a path to ground for the seat belt switch
sense input of the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab
Compartment Node/CCN). When the driver side front seat belt tip-half is inserted into the seat belt
buckle, the switch closes the path to ground; and, when the driver side front seat belt tip-half is
removed from the seat belt buckle, the switch opens the ground path. The switch is actuated by the
latch mechanism within the seat belt buckle.
The seat belt switch is connected in series between ground and the seat belt switch sense input of
the instrument cluster. The seat belt switch receives ground at all times through its pigtail wire
connection to the seat wire harness from a take out of the body wire harness. An eyelet terminal
connector on the body wire harness ground take out is secured beneath a ground screw on the left
cowl side inner panel, beneath the instrument panel.
The seat belt switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

Battery Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Battery Temperature Sensor - Operation
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temperature and control battery charging rate. This
temperature data, along with data from monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM (ECM Diesel) to
vary the battery charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder temperatures and is
gradually reduced at warmer temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is grounded through the sensor return line. As
temperature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases and the detection voltage at the PCM
increases.
The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Certain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example, disable purge and enable Leak Detection
Pump (LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II monitors are disabled below 20°F.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Service Precautions
CAUTION
CAUTION: The use of tire sealants is not recommended for vehicles equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring system. Tire sealants may clog tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: It is not recommended to install a tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. Use tire
pressure sensors in original style factory wheels only.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, cap and valve core must
be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System, one tire pressure sensor (6) is
mounted to each wheel in place of the traditional tire valve stem. Each sensor has an internal
battery that lasts up to 10 years. The battery is not serviceable. At the time of battery failure, the
sensor (6) must be replaced. The TPM system operates on a 315 MHz radio frequency. The 315
MHz sensors can be easily identified by a GREEN sensor body, with (an triangle insignia) (1). The
433 MHz sensors can be identified by a grey sensor body with an oval insignia. For car
applications, there is a 315 MHz TPM sensor with a Black sensor body with an oval insignia.
NOTE: This vehicle uses the 315 MHz TPM sensor with the GREEN sensor body. Although 315
MHz and 433 MHz sensors are identical in size and shape, they are not interchangeable. Always
make sure the correct color sensor is being used. A RKE-TPM Analyzer can be used to determine
the sensor's frequency without having to dismount the tire.
The TPM sensors are designed for original style factory wheels. It is not recommended to install a
tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. (This could cause sealing and system performance
issues.)
The serviceable components of the tire pressure sensor are:
- Sensor-To-Wheel Seal (4)
- Valve Stem Cap (2)
- Valve Stem Core
- Valve Stem Nut (3)
The valve stem caps and cores used are specifically designed for the tire pressure monitoring
sensors. Although similar to standard valve stem caps and cores, they are different. The valve
stem cap has a special seal inside to keep moisture and corrosion out. The valve stem core has a
special nickel coating to protect from corrosion.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
CAUTION: The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system
operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same
size, type, and/or style. After-market wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use aftermarket tire
sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.
CAUTION: After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure always reinstall the valve stem cap. This
will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Sensor.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, nut, cap and valve core
must be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.
The battery operated tire pressure sensor is both a transmitter and a receiver. The TPM sensor can
be forced to transmit if using a special tool such as a TPM-RKE Analyzer, or from a transponder.
The TPM-RKE Analyzer has the ability to change the sensor mode and to diagnose a faulty TPM
sensor. Using a TPM-RKE Analyzer can take up to a minute to force a transmission from a sensor.
The High Pressure TPM sensor can be in one of the following modes:
Sleep Mode - A new TPM sensor will be in this mode. If placed on the vehicle as a road tire, the
TPM sensor will transmit once every 20 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15 mph
(24 km/h). If the vehicle is not moving, the sensor will only transmit on a pressure change greater
then 2 psi (13.8 kPA). Driving the vehicle continuously at speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h) for more
then 4 minutes will change the sensor state into 30 BLOCK MODE. The TPM sensor will not return
to SLEEP MODE. Now, if the vehicle has been stopped for 20 minutes, the TPM sensor state will
change to PARK MODE.
- Park Mode - This is the correct mode when the vehicle is not moving. The sensor will transmit
once every 13 hours to update the WCM, or will transmit on a 2 psi (13.8 kPA) delta change. The
sensors will internally take a measurement of the tire pressure every minute to determine a change
in tire pressure.
- 30 Block Mode - If the vehicle has not been moving for more then 20 minutes, or if the sensor's
mode was forced to Park Mode using a TPM-RKE Analyzer, the sensor's operating mode will
transition from PARK MODE to 30 BLOCK MODE once the vehicle is driven over 15 mph. In this
mode, the sensor will transmit once every 15 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15
mph (24 km/h) for the first 30 transmissions. After 8 minutes of continuous driving above 15 mph
(24 km/h), the TPM sensor will change to DRIVE MODE.
Drive Mode - In this mode, the sensor will transmit once every minute when the vehicle is driven at
speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h). At any time that the vehicle speed drops below 15mph, the sensor
will not transmit. The sensor mode will still be in drive mode when the sensor reaches speeds over
15 mph (24 km/h). If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, the TPM sensor will
change to PARK MODE.
Each sensor's (transmitter) broadcast is uniquely coded so that the wireless control module (WCM)
can monitor the state of each of the sensors on the four rotating road wheels. The WCM can
automatically learn and store the sensor's ID while driving "within 10 minutes continuously above
15 m.p.h. (24 Km/h)" after a sensor has been replaced. The vehicle must be stationary for more
then 20 minutes in order to initiate the learning sequence.
The sensor IDs can also be programmed using the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool. Scan each TPM
sensor at each road wheel, and store each Sensor ID in the correct location. (LEFT FRONT, LEFT
REAR, RIGHT FRONT, and RIGHT REAR) Connect the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool to the Scan Tool.
Then follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic Scan Tool for "Program Tire Pressure
Sensor ID w/ TPM Tool" under "MISC" for the "WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE".

Tire Pressure Sensor: Testing and Inspection
TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR
NOTE: Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) during normal driving conditions.
Do NOT reduce this normal pressure build up.
NOTE: Tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12 F (6.5 C). This
means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will also decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure.
When diagnosing a tire pressure issue, always check air pressure in the tires first with a known
accurate air gauge. Adjust air pressure as necessary to that listed on the Tire Inflation Pressure
Label (Placard) provided with the vehicle (usually applied to the driver's side B-pillar). After
adjusting air pressure in a tire on the vehicle, allow approximately two minutes for the message or
indicator lamp to go out.
Check the tire pressure indicator lamp in the instrument cluster. If the lamp is illuminating
continuously, inspect all the tires for leaks. A water "dunk tank" or other water test may be used to
check for leaks around the sensor as long as any water at the valve core is removed once the
procedure is completed. The water can be easily expelled from the core area by pushing in on the
core for several seconds, allowing escaping air to drive out any moisture. Reinflate the tire as
necessary. Always make sure the original valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out
of the sensor. If the gauge-read pressure in the tires does not indicate a tire pressure issue, refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.
If the indicator lamp is flashing on/off for 75 seconds and then remains on solid, a system fault was
detected. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

REMOVAL
1. Raise and support vehicle. 2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. See: Maintenance/Wheels
and Tires/Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement
CAUTION: The cap used on this valve stem contains an O-ring seal to prevent contamination and
moisture from entering the valve stem. Retain this valve stem cap for reuse. Do not substitute a
regular valve stem cap in its place.
CAUTION: The valve stem used on this vehicle is made of aluminum and the core is nickel plated
brass. The original valve stem core must be reinstalled and not substituted with a valve stem core
made of a different material. This is required to prevent corrosion in the valve stem caused by the
different metals.
3. Let the air out of the tire. 4. Remove the nut (3). 5. Push the sensor into the tire (1) (so the
sensor is loose inside the tire). 6. Remove the tire from the rim. 7. Retrieve the sensor (1) from the

Tire Pressure Sensor: Service and Repair Installation
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before reinstalling an existing tire pressure sensor (6), replace valve cap (2), nut (3), valve
core and sensor seal (4) to ensure proper sealing.
NOTE: The notch/flat should be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
1. Wipe area clean around sensor/valve stem mounting hole in wheel. Make sure surface of wheel
is not damaged.
2. Insert sensor (1) through wheel (2) as shown keeping pressure against rear of metal valve stem
(See Arrow). Potted side of sensor is to be
positioned toward wheel. Damage to the sensor may occur if the sensor is installed incorrectly.
NOTE: A flat on the seal seat is used to key the seat to the sensor housing. The notch/flat should
be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
3. Install sensor nut (3) and hand tighten.
NOTE: Before tightening sensor nut, push downward on sensor housing (2) in an attempt to make
it flush with interior contour of wheel (1).
4. While holding sensor in position, tighten sensor nut to 6 Nm (53 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: Over-tightening the sensor to as much as 10 Nm (88 in. lbs.) may result in sensor
separation from the valve stem. Under this condition, the sensor may still function, however, the
condition should be corrected immediately.
5. Mount tire on wheel following tire changer manufacturer's instructions, paying special attention to
the following to avoid damaging tire pressure
sensor: a.

Rotating Wheel Tire Changers- Once the wheel is mounted to the changer, position the sensor
valve stem (2) approximately 180° from the head of the changer (located at 1) in a clockwise
direction before rotating the wheel (also in a clockwise direction) to mount the tire. Use this
procedure on both the upper and lower tire beads.
b.
Rotating Tool Tire Changers - Position the wheel on the changer so that the sensor valve stem (1)
is located approximately 180° clockwise from the installation end of the mounting/dismounting tool
(2) once the tool is mounted for tire installation. Make sure the sensor is clear of the lower bead
breaker area (3) to avoid damaging the sensor when the breaker rises. Rotate the tool (2) in a
counterclockwise direction to mount the tire. Use this procedure on both the upper and lower tire
beads.
6. Adjust air pressure to that listed on Tire Inflation Pressure Label (Placard) provided with vehicle
(usually applied to driver's side B-pillar). Make
sure original style valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out of sensor.
7. Install tire and wheel assembly on vehicle. See: Maintenance/Wheels and Tires/Service and
Repair/Removal and Replacement 8. Lower vehicle. 9. If the vehicle has been stationary for more
then 20 minutes, drive the vehicle for a minimum of 10 minutes while maintaining a continuous
speed
above 15 mph (24 km/h). During this time, the system will learn the new sensor ID. A new sensor
ID can also be programmed directly into the WCM by using a RKE-TPM Analyzer in conjunction
with a Scan Tool. Once the new sensor ID has been programmed, the RKE-TPM Analyzer can be
used to update the TPMS by activating the sensor.
NOTE: If a sensor cannot be trained, refer to appropriate diagnostic information.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The TCM utilizes a closed-loop system to control transmission line pressure. The system contains
a variable force style solenoid, the Pressure Control Solenoid, which is part of the pressure switch
assembly. The solenoid is duty cycle controlled by the TCM to vent the unnecessary line pressure
supplied by the oil pump back to the pump inlet. The system contains a Line Pressure Sensor,
which is a direct input to the TCM. The line pressure sensor monitors the transmission line
pressure and completes the feedback loop to the TCM. The TCM uses this information to adjust its
control of the pressure control solenoid to achieve the desired line pressure.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The TCM calculates the desired line pressure based upon inputs from the transmission and engine.
The TCM calculates the torque input to the transmission and uses that information as the primary
input to the calculation. The line pressure is set to a predetermined value during shifts, to ensure
consistent shift quality. During all other operation, the desired line pressure value is adjusted based
on torque level and other transmission requirements.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 2nd and 3rd gear limp-in operation.
The solenoids receive electrical power from the Transmission Control Relay through a single wire.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and 545RFE
PRESSURE SWITCH STATES:
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor (1) is located in the overdrive gear case. The sensor is positioned over the park
gear and monitors transmission output shaft rotating speed.
Operation
OPERATION
Speed sensor signals are triggered by the park gear lugs as they rotate past the sensor pickup
face. Input signals from the sensor are sent to the transmission control module for processing.
Signals from this sensor are shared with the powertrain control module.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate AC
signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case and are
considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of
the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil, an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an AC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the park gear teeth. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

DESCRIPTION
INPUT AND OUTPUT SPEED SENSORS
The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate DC
square wave signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case
and are considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the "teeth"
of the gear pass by the sensor coil, an DC square wave is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an DC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the rear planetary carrier lugs. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Four Wheel Drive Selector Switch: Description and Operation NV243 Transfer Case
Description
DESCRIPTION
The selector switch assembly is mounted in the left side of the vehicle's Instrument Panel (IP) and
consists of a rotary knob connected to a resistive network for the mode and range shift selections.
Also located in this assembly is a recessed, normally open momentary switch for making shifts into
and out of transfer case NEUTRAL. A pen, or similar instrument, is used to make a NEUTRAL shift
selection, thus reducing the likelihood of an inadvertent shift request.
The selector switch also contains four light emitting diode's (LED's) to indicate the transfer case
position and whether a shift is in progress.
Operation
OPERATION
As the position of the selector switch varies, the resistance between the Mode Sensor supply
voltage pin and the Mode Sensor output will vary. Hardware, software, and calibrations within the
Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) are provided that interpret the selector switch resistance as
given in the table below:
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO,
4HI, 2WD), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
- either of the neighboring valid positions.
- as an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges E and F shown for 2WD and in-between positions, the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
- the 2WD position.
- an invalid fault position.
- a valid in-between position.
For resistances between the ranges F and G shown for in-between positions and fault condition
(open), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:

- a valid in-between position.
- an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges A and B shown for the fault condition (short) and T-Case
NEUTRAL, the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
- the T-Case NEUTRAL position.
- an invalid fault position.
The LED's in the selector assembly are illuminated/flashed in the following manner to indicate a
particular condition or state.
- A solidly illuminated LED indicates a successfully completed shift and the current operating mode
of the transfer case. While a shift has been requested but not yet completed, the LED for the
desired transfer case position is flashed.
- A flashing operating mode LED for the desired gear indicates that a shift to that position has been
requested, but all of the driver controllable conditions have not been met. This is in an attempt to
notify the driver that the transmission needs to be put into NEUTRAL, the vehicle speed is too
great, or some other condition outlined (other than a diagnostic failure that would prevent this shift)
elsewhere See: Powertrain Management/Transmission Control Systems/Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain/Relays and Modules - Transfer Case/Control Module/Description and
Operation/Operation is not met. Note that this flashing will continue indefinitely until the conditions
are eventually met, or the selector switch position is changed, or if diagnostic routines no longer
allow the requested shift.
- If the driver attempts to make a shift into transfer case NEUTRAL, and any of the driver
controllable conditions are not met, the request will be ignored until all of the conditions are met or
until the NEUTRAL select button is released. Additionally the neutral lamp will flash, or begin to
flash while the button is depressed and operator controllable conditions are not being met. All of
the LED's except the Neutral will flash if any of the operator controllable conditions for shifting are
not met while the Neutral button is depressed. This "toggle" type of feature is necessary because
the TCCM would interpret another request immediately after the shift into transfer case NEUTRAL
has completed.
- No LED's illuminated indicate a fault in the transfer case control system.

NV244 GENII Transfer Case
Gear Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation NV244 GENII Transfer Case
Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case mode sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to indicate
the shift motor shaft's rotary position. The sensor consists of a magnetic ring and four Hall Effect
Transistors to create a 4 channel digital device (non-contacting) whose output converts the motor
shaft position into a coded signal. The TCCM must supply 5VDC (+/- 0.5v) to the sensor and
monitor the shift motor position. The four channels are denoted A, B, C, and D. The sensor is
mechanically linked to the shaft of the cam which causes the transfer case shifting. The mode
sensor draws less than 53 mA.
Operation
OPERATION
During normal vehicle operation, the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) monitors the mode
sensor outputs at least every 250 (+/-50) milliseconds when the shift motor is stationary and 400
microseconds when the shift motor is active. A mode sensor signal between 3.8 Volts and 0.8 Volts
is considered to be undefined.
Refer to SECTOR ANGLES vs.TRANSFER CASE POSITION for the relative angles of the transfer
case shift sector versus the interpreted transfer case gear operating mode. Refer to MODE
SENSOR CHANNEL STATES for the sensor codes returned to the TCCM for each transfer case
mode sensor position. The various between gears positions can also be referred as the transfer
case's coarse position. These coarse positions come into play during shift attempts.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case position sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to
indicate the transfer case's current operating mode. The sensor consists of a five position, resistive
multiplexed circuit which returns a specific resistance value to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) for each transfer case operating mode. The sensor is located on the top of the transfer
case, just left of the transfer case centerline and rides against the sector plate roostercomb. The
PCM supplies 5VDC (+/- 0.5V) to the sensor and monitors the return voltage to determine the
sector plate, and therefore the transfer case, position.
Operation
OPERATION
Position Sensor Linear Movement
During normal vehicle operation, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the transfer case
position sensor return voltage to determine the operating mode of the transfer case. Refer to the
Operating Mode Versus Resistance table for the correct resistance for each position.

Heated Glass Element Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The switch for the rear window defogger (EBL) system (1) is integrated into the A/C-heater control
(2), which is located in the center of the instrument panel. When the rear window defogger switch is
pressed to ON, a request signal is sent on the CAN-B Bus to the totally integrated power module
(TIPM) to operate the EBL system.
When the high side driver in the totally integrated power module (TIPM) is energized, current is
directed to the rear defogger grid lines and to the heated side view mirrors. The grid lines heat the
glass to help clear the surface of fog or frost.

Heated Glass Element Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
An amber indicator will illuminate when the rear window defogger switch is activated. When
activated, the switch sends a request signal to the to the totally integrated power module (TIPM) to
energize the internal EBL high side driver to provide battery current to the rear window defogger
grid lines and to the heated side view mirrors.
NOTE: The EBL system turns off automatically after 15 minutes of initial operation. Each following
activation cycle of the EBL system will last 10 minutes.
The EBL system will be automatically turned off after an initial programmed time interval of about
15 minutes, as long as the ignition switch is in RUN. After the initial time interval has expired, if the
rear window defogger switch is pressed to ON again during the same ignition cycle, the EBL
system will automatically turn off after about 10 minutes. The EBL system will automatically shut off
if the ignition switch is turned to any position other than RUN, or it can be turned off manually by
pressing the rear window defogger switch a second time.
The rear window defogger switch is diagnosed using a scan tool.
The rear window defogger switch and the rear window defogger indicator cannot be repaired and
the A/C-heater control must be replaced if found inoperative or damaged See: Heating and Air
Conditioning/Control Assembly/Service and Repair/A/C Heater Control - Removal .

Washer Fluid Level Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The washer fluid level switch (3) is a two-pin conductivity sensor with no moving parts mounted on
the rearward facing side of the washer reservoir adjacent to the washer pump/motor unit in the
engine compartment. Only the molded plastic switch mounting flange and the integral connector
receptacle (4) are visible when the switch is installed in the reservoir. A short nipple formation (1)
extends from the inner surface of the switch mounting flange, and a barb on the nipple is pressed
through a rubber grommet seal installed in the mounting hole of the reservoir. Two over-molded
pins or electrodes (2) extend from the back of the nipple formation.
The washer fluid level switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or damaged, the switch
must be replaced.

Washer Fluid Level Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The washer fluid level switch uses fluid conductivity to monitor the level of the washer fluid in the
washer reservoir. Electricity is conducted between the two switch pins or electrodes only when they
are immersed in the washer fluid, which closes the switch circuit. When the fluid level in the washer
reservoir falls below the pins, electrical current cannot be conducted and the switch becomes an
open circuit, which signals a low fluid condition.
In order to prevent an electrical charge from accumulating in the electrical leads of the switch, the
switch receives current that is pulsed from the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) located in
the engine compartment near the battery. The TIPM monitors the switch return signal and is
programmed to respond to three consecutive open switch readings by sending an electronic
washer fluid indicator lamp-ON message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also
known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The EMIC responds to this message by illuminating the washer fluid indicator and by sounding an
audible chime tone warning.
The washer fluid level switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the right (gasoline engines) or left (diesel engines) headlamp and dash wire
harness. The switch is connected in series between a sensor return circuit and the washer fluid
switch sense input to the TIPM.
The washer fluid level switch and the hard wired circuits between the switch and the TIPM may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information. However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
the washer fluid level switch or the electronic controls or communication between other modules
and devices that provide some features of the wiper and washer systems. The most reliable,
efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the washer fluid level switch or the electronic controls
and communication related to washer fluid level switch operation requires the use of a diagnostic
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Alignment: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Suspension components with rubber/urethane bushings should be tightened with the
vehicle at normal ride height. It is important to have the springs supporting the weight of the vehicle
when the fasteners are torqued. If springs are not at their normal ride position, vehicle ride comfort
could be affected and premature bushing wear may occur.
Wheel alignment involves the correct positioning of the wheels in relation to the vehicle. The
positioning is accomplished through suspension and steering linkage adjustments. An alignment is
considered essential for efficient steering, good directional stability and to minimize tire wear. The
most important measurements of an alignment are caster, camber and toe.
CAUTION: Never attempt to modify suspension or steering components by heating or bending.

Alignment: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
- CASTER is the forward or rearward tilt of the steering knuckle from vertical. Tilting the top of the
knuckle forward provides less positive caster. Tilting the top of the knuckle rearward provides more
positive caster. Positive caster promotes directional stability. This angle enables the front wheels to
return to a straight ahead position after turns
- CAMBER is the inward or outward tilt of the wheel relative to the center of the vehicle. Tilting the
top of the wheel inward provides negative camber. Tilting the top of the wheel outward provides
positive camber. Incorrect camber will cause wear on the inside or outside edge of the tire
- TOE is the difference between the leading inside edges and trailing inside edges of the front tires.
Wheel toe position out of specification cause's unstable steering, uneven tire wear and steering
wheel off- center. The wheel toe position is the final front wheel alignment adjustment
- THRUST ANGLE is the angle of the rear axle relative to the centerline of the vehicle. Incorrect
thrust angle can cause off-center steering and excessive tire wear. This angle is not adjustable,
damaged component(s) must be replaced to correct the thrust angle

Alignment: Testing and Inspection
PRE-ALIGNMENT INSPECTION
Before starting wheel alignment, the following inspection and necessary corrections must be
completed. Refer to Suspension and Steering System Diagnosis Chart below for additional
information.
1. Inspect tires for size, air pressure and tread wear. 2. Inspect front wheel bearings for wear. 3.
Inspect front wheels for excessive radial or lateral runout and balance. 4. Inspect ball studs, linkage
pivot points and steering gear for looseness, roughness or binding. 5. Inspect suspension
components for wear and noise. 6. Road test the vehicle.

CAMBER, CASTER AND TOE ADJUSTMENT
Camber and caster angle adjustments involve changing the position of the lower control arm with
the slots in the frame brackets (1).
CASTER
Moving the front or rear position of the lower control arm in or out, will change the caster angle and
camber angle significantly. To maintain the camber angle while adjusting caster, move one pivot
bolt of the lower control arm in or out. Then move the other pivot bolt of the lower control arm in the
opposite direction.
To increase positive caster angle, move the rear position of the lower control arm inward (toward
the engine). Move the front of the lower control arm outward (away from the engine) slightly until
the desired camber angle is obtained.
CAMBER
Move both pivot bolts of the lower control arm together in or out. This will change the camber angle
significantly and little effect on the caster angle.
After adjustment is made tighten the lower control arm nuts to proper torque specification.
TOE ADJUSTMENT
The wheel toe position adjustment is the final adjustment.
1. Start the engine and turn wheels both ways before straightening the wheels. Secure the steering
wheel with the front wheels in the straight-ahead
position.
2. Loosen the tie rod jam nuts (1).

CURB HEIGHT MEASUREMENT (HD)
The wheel alignment is to be checked and all alignment adjustments made with the vehicle at its
required curb height specification.
Vehicle height is to be checked with the vehicle on a flat, level surface, preferably a vehicle
alignment rack. The tires are to be inflated to the recommended pressure. All tires are to be the
same size as standard equipment. Vehicle height is checked with the fuel tank full of fuel, and no
passenger or luggage compartment load.
Inspect the vehicle for bent or weak suspension components. Compare the parts tag on the
suspect coil spring(s) to the parts book and the vehicle sales code, checking for a match. Once
removed from the vehicle, compare the coil spring height to a correct new or known good coil
spring. The heights should vary if the suspect spring is weak.

VALVE LASH ADJUSTMENT AND VERIFICATION
NOTE: To obtain accurate readings, valve lash measurements AND adjustments should only be
performed when the engine coolant temperature is less than 60° C (140° F).
The 24-valve overhead system is a "low-maintenance" design. Routine adjustments are no longer
necessary, however, measurement should still take place when troubleshooting performance
problems, or upon completion of a repair that includes removal and installation of the valve train
components or injectors.
1. Disconnect battery negative cables. 2. Remove cylinder head cover See: Engine, Cooling and
Exhaust/Engine/Cylinder Head Assembly/Valve Cover/Service and Repair/Removal and
Replacement/Cylinder Head Cover - Removal .
3. Using the crankshaft barring tool #7471-B, rotate crankshaft to align damper TDC mark to 12:00
o'clock position.
a. If both number one cylinder rocker levers are loose, continue to next step. b. If both number one
cylinder rocker levers are not loose, rotate crankshaft 360 degrees.
4. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be measured at the following rocker arms:
INTAKE 1-2-4 / EXHAUST 1-3-5. Measure the valve
lash by inserting a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and crosshead. Refer to VALVE
LASH LIMIT CHART for the correct specifications. If the measurement falls within the limits,
adjustment/resettingis not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resettingis required.
5. If adjustment/resetting is required, loosen the lock nut on rocker arms and turn the adjusting
screw until the desired lash is obtained:
- INTAKE 0.254 mm (0.010 in.)
- EXHAUST 0.660 mm (0.026 in.)
Tighten the lock nut to 24 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) and recheck the valve lash.
6. Using the crankshaft barring tool, rotate the crankshaft one revolution (360°) to align the damper
TDC mark to the 12 o'clock position.

Drive Belt: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
VISUAL DIAGNOSIS
NOTE: Diesel Engine - If a belt is broken or frayed, inspect engine speed sensor ( located near the
crankshaft damper) for damage.
When diagnosing serpentine accessory drive belts, small cracks that run across the ribbed surface
of the belt from rib to rib , are considered normal. These are not a reason to replace the belt.
However, cracks running along a rib (not across) are not normal. Any belt with cracks running
along a rib must be replaced. Also replace the belt if it has excessive wear, frayed cords or severe
glazing.
Refer to ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT DIAGNOSIS CHART for further belt diagnosis.
NOISE DIAGNOSIS
Noises generated by the accessory drive belt are most noticeable at idle. Before replacing a belt to
resolve a noise condition, inspect all of the accessory drive pulleys for alignment, glazing, or
excessive end play.

Operation
Crankcase Filter: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The Closed Crankcase Ventilation System (CCV) consists of several parts to make it functional.
One part is the filter. The filter is serviceable and prevents oil mist from entering the discharge tube
of the CCV system. It is not cleaned, but replaced at 60,000 mile intervals.
The crankcase breather assembly is integrated into the cylinder head cover (3) and is serviced
separately. The external fittings (2) to the breather tube and breather drain tube are serviceable.
The crankcase breather assembly is integrated into the cylinder head cover and corresponding
breather cover. Crankcase gasses travel into the breather cavity under the breather cover where
they pass through a filtering media (serviceable maintenance component) which separates the oil
from the crankcase gasses. The oil drains back into the engine block through two hoses (2) on the
left side of the engine.
The crankcase gasses are directed through the Crankcase Depression Regulator (CDR) valve
which allows the system to maintain a constant positive pressure in the crankcase. The CDR valve
is a non-serviceable component located on the underside of the breather cover. Clean crankcase
gasses flow from the CDR valve into the fresh air side of the turbocharger compressor.
The closed crankcase ventilation valve is used to vent the crankcase gases back into the intake of
engine. If the crankcase ventilation filter becomes too restrictive, under high intake vacuum
situations, the closed crankcase ventilation prevents the engine from syphoning crankcase
gases/oil from the crankcase of the engine. The closed crankcase ventilation valve is located under
the crankcase ventilation filter cover at the top of the engine.
TESTING
1. If troubleshooting high crankcase pressure, the following items can be causing the closed
crankcase ventilation valve to close during engine
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Filters > Crankcase Filter > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Page 2415
operation: High air intake restriction. Check for high intake restriction
- A restricted crankcase ventilation filter. Change the filter
- A malfunctioning or misassembled closed crankcase ventilation valve. Check the valve operation
and change if necessary
2. The closed crankcase ventilation valve should allow crankcases gases to flow when the engine
is not running and/or removed from the engine.
NOTE: Application of air can be applied either to the inlet or outlet of the closed crankcase
ventilation valve.
3. A small amount of air can be blown through the closed crankcase ventilation valve (less than 34
kPa [5 psi]) to check the closed crankcase
ventilation valve.
4. If air does not go through the closed crankcase ventilation valve, replace the valve.

Fuel Filter: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The fuel filter/water separator protects the fuel injection pump by removing water and contaminants
from the fuel. The construction of the filter/separator allows fuel to pass through it, but helps
prevent moisture (water) from doing so. Moisture collects at the bottom of the filter.
Refer to the maintenance schedules for the recommended fuel filter replacement intervals.
For draining of water from canister, refer to Fuel Filter/Water Separator Removal/Installation.
There is a screened quick-connect fitting that is attached at the side of the fuel filter canister. It
provides additional filtering for the high pressure fuel system components.
A Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor is attached to the bottom of fuel filter element.
The fuel heater is installed into the side of the filter/separator housing.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

Brake Fluid: Testing and Inspection
BRAKE FLUID CONTAMINATION
Indications of fluid contamination are swollen or deteriorated rubber parts.
Swollen rubber parts indicate the presence of petroleum in the brake fluid.
To test for contamination, put a small amount of drained brake fluid in clear glass jar. If fluid
separates into layers, there is mineral oil or other fluid contamination of the brake fluid.
If brake fluid is contaminated, drain and thoroughly flush system. Replace master cylinder,
proportioning valve, caliper seals, wheel cylinder seals, Antilock Brakes hydraulic unit and all
hydraulic fluid hoses.

ENGINE COOLANT
WARNING: Antifreeze is an ethylene-glycol base coolant and is harmful if swallowed or inhaled. If
swallowed, drink two glasses of water and induce vomiting. If inhaled, move to fresh air area. Seek
medical attention immediately. Do not store in open or unmarked containers. Wash skin and
clothing thoroughly after coming in contact with ethylene-glycol. Keep out of reach of children.
Dispose of glycol base coolant properly, contact your dealer or government agency for location of
collection center in your area. Do not open a cooling system when the engine is at operating
temperature or hot under pressure, personal injury can result. Avoid radiator cooling fan when
engine compartment related service is performed, personal injury can result.
CAUTION: Use of Propylene-Glycol based coolants is not recommended, as they provide less
freeze protection and less corrosion protection.
The cooling system is designed around the coolant. The coolant must accept heat from engine
metal, in the cylinder head area near the exhaust valves and engine block. Then coolant carries the
heat to the radiator where the tube/fin radiator can transfer the heat to the air.
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (MS-9769), or the
equivalent ethylene-glycol base coolant with organic corrosion inhibitors (called HOAT, for Hybrid
Organic Additive Technology) is recommended. This coolant offers the best engine cooling without
corrosion when mixed with 50% ethylene-glycol and 50% distilled water to obtain a freeze point of
-37°C (-35°F). If it loses color or becomes contaminated, drain, flush, and replace with fresh
properly mixed coolant solution.
CAUTION: Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (MS-9769) may not be
mixed with any other type of antifreeze. Mixing of coolants other than specified (non-HOAT or other
HOAT) may result in engine damage that may not be covered under the new vehicle warranty, and
decreased corrosion protection.
COOLANT PERFORMANCE
The required ethylene-glycol and water mixture depends upon climate and vehicle operating
conditions. The coolant performance of various mixtures follows:
Pure Water- Water can absorb more heat than a mixture of water and ethylene-glycol. This is for
purpose of heat transfer only. Water also freezes at a higher temperature and allows corrosion.
100 percent Ethylene-Glycol - The corrosion inhibiting additives in ethylene-glycol need the
presence of water to dissolve. Without water, additives form deposits in system. These act as
insulation causing temperature to rise to as high as 149°C (300°F). This temperature is hot enough
to melt plastic. The increased temperature can result in sever engine damage. In addition, 100
percent ethylene-glycol freezes at -22°C (-8°F).
50/50 Ethylene-Glycol and Water - Is the recommended mixture, it provides protection against
freezing to -37°C (-34°F). The antifreeze concentration must always be a minimum of 44 percent,
year-round in all climates. If percentage is lower, engine parts may be eroded by cavitation.
Maximum protection against freezing is provided with a 68 percent antifreeze concentration, which
prevents freezing down to -67.7°C (-90°F). A higher percentage will freeze at a warmer
temperature. Also, a higher percentage of antifreeze can cause the engine to overheat because
specific heat of antifreeze is lower than that of water.
CAUTION: Richer antifreeze mixtures cannot be measured with normal field equipment and can
cause problems associated with 100 percent ethylene-glycol.

Operation
OPERATION
Coolant flows through the engine block, cylinder head, absorbing the heat from the engine, then
flows to the radiator where the cooling fins in the radiator transfers the heat from the coolant to the
atmosphere. On the 6.7L diesel engine, coolant also flows through the EGR cooler and
turbocharger actuator. During cold weather the ethylene-glycol or propylene-glycol coolant
prevents water present in the cooling system from freezing within temperatures indicated by
mixture ratio of coolant to water.

COOLANT CONCENTRATION TESTING
Coolant concentration should be checked when any additional coolant was added to system or
after a coolant drain, flush and refill. The coolant mixture offers optimum engine cooling and
protection against corrosion when mixed to a freeze point of -37°C (-34°F) to -46°C (-50°F). The
use of a hydrometer or Tool 8266, refractometer can be used to test coolant concentration.
A hydrometer will test the amount of glycol in a mixture by measuring the specific gravity of the
mixture. The higher the concentration of ethylene glycol, the larger the number of balls that will
float, and higher the freeze protection (up to a maximum of 60% by volume glycol).
A Refractometer Tool 8286 will test the amount of glycol in a coolant mixture by measuring the
amount a beam of light bends as it passes through the fluid.
Some coolant manufactures use other types of glycols into their coolant formulations. Propylene
glycol is the most common new coolant. However, propylene glycol based coolants do not provide
the same freezing protection and corrosion protection and are not recommended.
CAUTION: Do not mix types of coolant - corrosion protection will be severely reduced.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (ALL BUT AISIN TRANSMISSION)
NOTE: Refer to fluid level checking procedures.
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid is the recommended fluid for DaimlerChrysler
automatic transmissions.
Dexron II fluid IS NOT recommended. Clutch chatter can result from the use of improper fluid.
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid when new is red in color. The ATF is dyed red so
it can be identified from other fluids used in the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red
color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal. ATF+4 also
has a unique odor that may change with age. Consequently, odor and color cannot be used to
indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.
AISIN TRANSMISSION
Mopar(R) AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluid is the recommended fluid for AISIN AS68RC
TRANSMISSION.
Mopar(R) AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluid when new is red in color. The ATF is dyed red
so it can be identified from other fluids used in the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red
color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal. Mopar(R)
AS68RC, also has a unique odor that may change with age. Consequently, odor and color cannot
be used to indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.
FLUID ADDITIVES
Chrysler strongly recommends against the addition of any fluids to the transmission, other than
those automatic transmission fluids listed above. Exceptions to this policy are the use of special
dyes to aid in detecting fluid leaks.
Various "special" additives and supplements exist that claim to improve shift feel and/or quality.
These additives and others also claim to improve converter clutch operation and inhibit
overheating, oxidation, varnish, and sludge. These claims have not been supported to the
satisfaction of Chrysler and these additives must not be used. The use of transmission "sealers"
should also be avoided, since they may adversely affect the integrity of transmission seals.

Fluid - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
The automatic transmission fluid is selected based upon several qualities. The fluid must provide a
high level of protection for the internal components by providing a lubricating film between adjacent
metal components. The fluid must also be thermally stable so that it can maintain a consistent
viscosity through a large temperature range. If the viscosity stays constant through the temperature
range of operation, transmission operation and shift feel will remain consistent. Transmission fluid
must also be a good conductor of heat. The fluid must absorb heat from the internal transmission
components and transfer that heat to the transmission case.

Effects Of Incorrect Fluid Level
EFFECTS OF INCORRECT FLUID LEVEL
A low fluid level allows the pump to take in air along with the fluid. Air in the fluid will cause fluid
pressures to be low and develop slower than normal. If the transmission is overfilled, the gears
churn the fluid into foam. This aerates the fluid and causing the same conditions occurring with a
low level. In either case, air bubbles cause fluid overheating, oxidation, and varnish buildup which
interferes with valve and clutch operation. Foaming also causes fluid expansion which can result in
fluid overflow from the transmission vent or fill tube. Fluid overflow can easily be mistaken for a
leak if inspection is not careful.
Causes Of Burnt Fluid
CAUSES OF BURNT FLUID
Burnt, discolored fluid is a result of overheating which has three primary causes.
1. Internal clutch slippage, usually caused by low line pressure, inadequate clutch apply pressure,
or clutch seal failure. 2. A result of restricted fluid flow through the main and auxiliary cooler. This
condition is usually the result of a faulty or improperly installed
drainback valve, a damaged oil cooler, or severe restrictions in the coolers and lines caused by
debris or kinked lines.
3. Heavy duty operation with a vehicle not properly equipped for this type of operation. Trailer
towing or similar high load operation will overheat
the transmission fluid if the vehicle is improperly equipped. Such vehicles should have an auxiliary
transmission fluid cooler, a heavy duty cooling system, and the engine/axle ratio combination
needed to handle heavy loads.
Fluid Contamination
FLUID CONTAMINATION
Transmission fluid contamination is generally a result of:
- adding incorrect fluid
- failure to clean dipstick and fill tube when checking level
- engine coolant entering the fluid
- internal failure that generates debris
- overheat that generates sludge (fluid breakdown)
- failure to replace contaminated converter after repair
The use of non-recommended fluids can result in transmission failure. The usual results are erratic
shifts, slippage, abnormal wear and eventual failure due to fluid breakdown and sludge formation.
Avoid this condition by using recommended fluids only.
The dipstick cap and fill tube should be wiped clean before checking fluid level. Dirt, grease and
other foreign material on the cap and tube could fall into the tube if not removed beforehand. Take
the time to wipe the cap and tube clean before withdrawing the dipstick.
Engine coolant in the transmission fluid is generally caused by a cooler malfunction. The only
remedy is to replace the radiator as the cooler in the radiator is not a serviceable part. If coolant
has circulated through the transmission, an overhaul is necessary.
The torque converter should also be replaced whenever a failure generates sludge and debris. This
is necessary because normal converter flushing procedures will not remove all contaminants.

Transmission Filters - 4X4 Shown
9. Remove the screw holding the primary oil filter (1) to valve body.
10. Separate filter from valve body and oil pump and pour fluid in filter into drain pan. 11. Inspect
the oil filter seal in the bottom of the oil pump. If the seal is not installed completely in the oil pump,
or is otherwise damaged, then remove
and discard the oil filter seal from the bottom of the oil pump. If the seal is installed correctly and is
in good condition, it can be reused.
12. If replacing the cooler return filter (2), use Oil Filter Wrench 8321 to remove the filter from the
transmission. 13. Dispose of used trans fluid and filter(s) properly.
INSPECTION
Inspect bottom of pan and magnet for excessive amounts of metal. A light coating of clutch material
on the bottom of the pan does not indicate a problem unless accompanied by a slipping condition
or shift lag. If fluid and pan are contaminated with excessive amounts of debris, refer to the
appropriate diagnostic procedure.
CLEANING
1. Using a suitable solvent, clean pan and magnet. 2. Using a suitable gasket scraper, clean
original sealing material from surface of transmission case and the transmission pan.

position on transmission. 7. Install bolts to hold pan to transmission. Tighten bolts to 12 Nm (105 in.
lbs.) torque. 8. Lower vehicle and fill transmission with MOPAR(R) ATF +4.
Fluid Level Check - 68RFE
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions because it allows the pump to take in air along with
the fluid. As in any hydraulic system, air bubbles make the fluid spongy, therefore, pressures will be
low and build up slowly.
Improper filling can also raise the fluid level too high. When the transmssion has too much fluid, the
geartrain churns up foam and cause the same conditions which occur with a low fluid level.
In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating and fluid oxidation, and varnishing. This can
interfere with normal valve, clutch, and accumulator operation. Foaming can also result in fluid
escaping from the transmission vent where it may be mistaken for a leak.
The transmission has a dipstick to check oil level. It is located on the right side of the engine. Be
sure to wipe all dirt from dipstick handle before removing.
The torque converter fills in both the P (PARK) and N (NEUTRAL) positions. Place the selector
lever in P (PARK) to be sure that the fluid level check is accurate. The engine should be running at
idle speed for at least one minute, with the vehicle on level ground. At normal operating
temperature (approximately 82° C. or 180° F), the fluid level is correct if it is in the HOT region
(cross-hatched area) on the oil level indicator. The fluid level will be approximately at the upper
COLD hole of the dipstick at 21° C (70° F) fluid temperature.

TRANSMISSION FILL
To avoid overfilling transmission after a fluid change or overhaul, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove dipstick and insert clean funnel in transmission fill tube. 2. Add following initial quantity
of Mopar(R) ATF +4 to transmission:
a. If only fluid and filter were changed, add 3 pints (1-1/2 quarts) of ATF +4 to transmission. b. If
transmission was completely overhauled, torque converter was replaced or drained, and cooler
was flushed, add 12 pints (6 quarts) of ATF
+4 to transmission.
3. Apply parking brakes. 4. Start and run engine at normal curb idle speed. 5. Apply service brakes,
shift transmission through all gear ranges then back to NEUTRAL, set parking brake, and leave
engine running at curb idle
speed.
6. Remove funnel, insert dipstick and check fluid level. If level is low, add fluid to bring level to MIN
mark on dipstick. Check to see if the oil
level is equal on both sides of the dipstick. If one side is noticeably higher than the other, the
dipstick has picked up some oil from the dipstick tube. Allow the oil to drain down the dipstick tube
and re-check.
7. Drive vehicle until transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature. 8. With the engine
running at curb idle speed, the gear selector in NEUTRAL, and the parking brake applied, check
the transmission fluid level.
CAUTION: Do not overfill transmission, fluid foaming and shifting problems can result.
9. Add fluid to bring level up to MAX arrow mark.
When fluid level is correct, shut engine off, release park brake, remove funnel, and install dipstick
in fill tube.

Fluid Level Check
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions because it allows the pump to take in air along with
the fluid. As in any hydraulic system, air bubbles make the fluid spongy, therefore, pressures will be
low and build up slowly.
Improper filling can also raise the fluid level too high. When the transmission has too much fluid,
the gear train churns up foam and cause the same conditions which occur with a low fluid level.
In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating and/or fluid oxidation, and varnishing. This can
interfere with normal valve, clutch, and accumulator operation. Foaming can also result in fluid
escaping from the transmission vent where it may be mistaken for a leak.
After the fluid has been checked, seat the dipstick fully to seal out water and dirt.
The transmission has a dipstick to check oil level. Be sure to wipe all dirt from dipstick handle
before removing.
The torque converter fills in both the P (PARK) and N (NEUTRAL) positions. Place the selector
lever in P (PARK) to be sure that the fluid level check is accurate. The engine should be running at
idle speed for at least one minute, with the vehicle on level ground. At normal operating
temperature (approximately 82° C. or 180° F), the fluid level is correct if it is in the HOT region
(cross-hatched area) on the oil level indicator. The fluid level will be approximately at the upper
COLD hole of the dipstick at 21° C (70° F) fluid temperature.
NOTE: Engine and Transmission should be at normal operating temperature before performing this
procedure. Optimum fluid temperature for checking the level should be between 70°C (158°F) and
80°C ( 176°F).
1. Start engine and apply parking brake. 2. Shift the transmission into DRIVE for approximately 2
seconds. 3. Shift the transmission into REVERSE for approximately 2 seconds. 4. Shift the
transmission into PARK. 5. Connect the scan tool and select transmission. 6. Select sensors. 7.
Read the transmission temperature value. 8. Compare the fluid temperature value with the chart. 9.
Adjust transmission fluid level shown on the dipstick according to the Transmission Fluid
Temperature Chart.

NOTE: After adding any fluid to the transmission, wait a minimum of 2 minutes for the oil to fully
drain from the fill tube into the transmission before rechecking the fluid level.
10. Check transmission for leaks.

6. Remove the transmission oil filter bolts (3). 7. Remove the transmission oil filter and o-ring seal
from the valve body (1).
INSPECTION
OIL PAN MAGNETS
Inspect bottom of pan, pick-up magnets (1) and magnetic drain plug (2) and fluid filter for excessive
amounts of metal. A light coating of clutch material on the bottom of the pan does not indicate a
problem unless accompanied by a slipping condition or shift lag. If fluid and pan are contaminated
with excessive amounts of debris, refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
CLEANING
1. Using a suitable solvent, clean pan and magnet. 2. Using a suitable gasket scraper, clean
original sealing material from surface of transmission case and the transmission pan.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

ENGINE OIL SERVICE
WARNING: Hot oil can cause personal injury.
1. Operate the engine until the water temperature reaches 60°C (140°F). Shut the engine off. 2.
Use a container that can hold at least 14 liters (15 quarts) to hold the used oil. Remove the oil drain
plug and drain the used engine oil into the
container.
3. Always check the condition of the used oil. This can give you an indication of engine problems
that might exist.
- Thin, black oil indicates fuel dilution.
- Milky discoloration indicates coolant dilution.
4. Clean the area around the oil filter head. Remove the filter See: Filters/Oil Filter/Service and
Repair/Removal . 5. Install new oil filter See: Filters/Oil Filter/Service and Repair/Installation . 6.
Clean the drain plug and the sealing surface of the pan. Check the condition of the threads and
sealing surface on the oil pan and drain plug. 7. Install the drain plug. Tighten the plug to 50 Nm
(37 ft. lbs.) torque. 8. Use only High-Quality Low Ash Multi-Viscosity lubricating oil in the Cummins
Turbo Diesel engine. Choose the correct oil for the operating
conditions.
9. Fill the engine with the correct grade of new oil See: .
10. Start the engine and operate it at idle for several minutes. Check for leaks at the filter and drain
plug. 11. Stop engine. Wait 30 minutes to allow the oil to drain back to the pan and check the level
again.
USED ENGINE OIL DISPOSAL
Care should be exercised when disposing of used engine oil after it has been drained from a
vehicle's engine.

Engine Oil: Service and Repair Engine Oil Level
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
CAUTION: Do not overfill crankcase with engine oil, oil foaming and oil pressure loss can result.
To ensure proper lubrication of an engine, the engine oil must be maintained at an acceptable
level. The acceptable oil level is in the SAFE RANGE (3) on the engine oil dipstick.
NOTE: Note: The best time to check the engine oil level is after the engine is at operating
temperature and has been turned off (not running) for 30 minutes.
1. Position vehicle on level surface. 2. With engine OFF, allow approximately 30 minutes for oil to
settle to bottom of crankcase, remove engine oil dipstick. 3. Wipe dipstick clean. 4. Replace
dipstick and verify it is seated in the tube. 5. Remove dipstick, with handle held above the tip, take
oil level reading. 6. Add oil only if level is below the SAFE RANGE area on the dipstick. 7. Replace
dipstick.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

POWER STEERING FLUID
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid is required in the power steering system.
Substitute fluids can induce power steering system failure.
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid when new is red in color. The ATF is dyed red so
it can be identified from other fluids used in the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red
color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal. ATF+4 also
has a unique odor that may change with age. Consequently, odor and color cannot be used to
indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL CHECKING
WARNING: FLUID LEVEL SHOULD BE CHECKED WITH THE ENGINE OFF TO PREVENT
PERSONAL INJURY FROM MOVING PARTS.
CAUTION: MOPAR(R) ATF+4 is to be used in the power steering system. No other power steering
or automatic transmission fluid is to be used in the system. Damage may result to the power
steering pump and system if any other fluid is used, and do not overfill.
The power steering fluid level can be viewed on the dipstick attached to the filler cap. There are
two ranges listed on the dipstick, COLD and HOT. Before opening power steering system, wipe the
reservoir filler cap free of dirt and debris. Remove the cap and check the fluid level on its dipstick.
When the fluid is at normal ambient temperature, approximately 21°C to 27°C (70°F to 80°F), the
fluid level should read between the minimum and maximum area of the cold range. When the fluid
is hot, fluid level is allowed to read up to the highest end of the HOT range. Only add fluid when the
vehicle is cold.
Use only Mopar(R) ATF+4. Do not overfill the power steering system.

A/C REFRIGERANT
The refrigerant used in this air conditioning system is a HydroFluoroCarbon (HFC), type R-134a.
Unlike R-12, which is a ChloroFluoroCarbon (CFC), R-134a refrigerant does not contain
ozone-depleting chlorine. R-134a refrigerant is a non-toxic, non-flammable, clear and colorless
liquefied gas.
CAUTION: R-134a refrigerant is not compatible with R-12 refrigerant in an A/C system. Even a
small amount of R-12 refrigerant added to an R-134a refrigerant system will cause A/C compressor
failure.
The A/C refrigerant system is filled-for-life at the factory and requires no regular maintenance.
Although not required at specific intervals, the charge level should be checked if system
performance deteriorates or if a noise or leak is suspected See: Heating and Air
Conditioning/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Refrigerant
System Leaks .

Even though R-134a does not contain chlorine, it must be reclaimed and recycled just like
CFC-type refrigerants. This is because R-134a is a greenhouse gas and can contribute to global
warming See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service and Repair/Refrigerant System Recovery .

Refrigerant: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
R-134a refrigerant is not compatible with R-12 refrigerant in an A/C system. Even a small amount
of R-12 refrigerant added to an R-134a refrigerant system will cause A/C compressor failure,
refrigerant oil sludge or poor A/C system performance. In addition, the polyalkylene glycol (PAG)
synthetic refrigerant oils used in an R-134a refrigerant system are not compatible with the
mineral-based refrigerant oils used in an R-12 refrigerant system.
R-134a refrigerant system service ports, service tool couplers and refrigerant dispensing bottles
have all been designed with unique fittings to ensure that an R-134a refrigerant system is not
accidentally contaminated with the wrong refrigerant (R-12). There are also labels posted in the
engine compartment of the vehicle and on the A/C compressor to identify that the A/C system is
equipped with R-134a refrigerant.

Refrigerant: Testing and Inspection
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM LEAKS
WARNING: R-134a service equipment or vehicle A/C system should not be pressure tested or leak
tested with compressed air. Mixture of air and R-134a can be combustible at elevated pressures.
These mixtures are potentially dangerous and may result in fire or explosion causing property
damage and serious or fatal injury. Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist.
Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. Use only approved service equipment meeting SAE
requirements to discharge an R-134a system. If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work
area before resuming service.
NOTE: If the A/C refrigerant system charge is empty or low, a leak in the A/C system is likely.
Visually inspect all A/C lines, fittings and components for an oily residue. Oil residue can be an
indicator of an A/C system leak location.
NOTE: The only way to correctly determine if the refrigerant system is fully charged with R-134a is
to completely evacuate and recharge the A/C system.
Connect a suitable manifold gauge set and determine if the static A/C system pressure is above or
below 345 kPa (50 psi) See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Tools and Equipment/Refrigerant
System Service Equipment . If less than 345 kPa (50 psi), proceed to SYSTEM EMPTY. If greater
than 345 kPa (50 psi), go to SYSTEM LOW.
SYSTEM EMPTY
1. Evacuate the refrigerant system to the lowest degree of vacuum possible (approximately -88 kPa
(- 26 in. Hg) or greater vacuum) See: Heating
and Air Conditioning/Service and Repair/Refrigerant System Evacuate . Determine if the system
holds a vacuum for 15 minutes. If vacuum is held, a leak is probably not present. If system will not
maintain vacuum level, proceed to STEP 2.
2. Prepare and dispense 0.284 kilograms (10 ounces) of R-134a refrigerant into the evacuated
refrigerant system See: Heating and Air
Conditioning/Service and Repair/Refrigerant System Charge and proceed to STEP 1 of the System
Low procedure.
SYSTEM LOW
3. Position the vehicle in a wind-free work area. This will aid in detecting small leaks. 4. Operate
the heating-A/C system with the engine at idle under the following conditions for at least 5 minutes.
- Doors or windows open
- Transmission in Park or Neutral with the parking brake set (depending on application)
- A/C-heater controls set to outside air, full cool, panel mode, high blower and with A/C compressor
engaged
CAUTION: A leak detector only designed for R-12 refrigerant will not detect leaks in an R-134a
refrigerant system.
5. Shut the vehicle Off and wait 2-7 minutes. Then use an electronic leak detector that is designed
to detect R-134a refrigerant and search for leaks.
Fittings, lines or components that appear to be oily usually indicate a refrigerant leak. To inspect
the A/C evaporator for leaks, insert the leak detector probe into the drain tube opening or an air
outlet. A dye for R-134a is available to aid in leak detection. Use only DaimlerChrysler approved
refrigerant dye.

WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and cautions for this system before performing the
following operation See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service Precautions/Warning and See:
Heating and Air Conditioning/Service Precautions/Caution. Failure to follow the warnings and
cautions may result in serious or fatal injury.
An R-134a refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging station (1) that meets SAE standard J2210 must
be used to recover the refrigerant from the R-134a refrigerant system.

Refrigerant: Service and Repair Refrigerant System - Evacuate
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM EVACUATE
NOTE: Special effort must be used to prevent moisture from entering the A/C system oil. Moisture
in the oil is very difficult to remove and will cause a reliability problem with the A/C compressor.
If an A/C compressor designed to use R-134a refrigerant is left open to the atmosphere for an
extended period of time. It is recommended that the refrigerant oil be drained and replaced with
new oil or a new A/C compressor be used. This will eliminate the possibility of contaminating the
refrigerant system.
If the refrigerant system has been open to the atmosphere, it must be evacuated before the system
can be filled. Moisture and air mixed with the refrigerant will raise the compressor head pressure
above acceptable operating levels. This will reduce the performance of the A/C system and
damage the A/C compressor. Moisture will boil at near room temperature when exposed to
vacuum. To evacuate the refrigerant system:
NOTE: When connecting the service equipment coupling to the line fitting, verify that the valve of
the coupling is fully closed. This will reduce the amount of effort required to make the connection.
1. Recover the refrigerant system See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service and
Repair/Refrigerant System Recovery . 2. Connect a suitable charging station, refrigerant recovery
machine or a manifold gauge set with vacuum pump and refrigerant recovery equipment
See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Tools and Equipment/Refrigerant System Service Equipment .
3. Open the suction and discharge valves and start the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump should
run a minimum of 45 minutes prior to charge to
eliminate all moisture in system. When the suction gauge reads to the lowest degree of vacuum
possible (approximately -88 kPa (- 26 in. Hg) or greater) for 30 minutes, close all valves and turn
off vacuum pump. If the system fails to reach specified vacuum, the refrigerant system likely has a
leak that must be corrected. If the refrigerant system maintains specified vacuum for at least 30
minutes, start the vacuum pump, open the suction and discharge valves. Then allow the system to
evacuate an additional 10 minutes.
4. Close all valves. Turn off and disconnect the vacuum pump. 5. Charge the refrigerant system
See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service and Repair/Refrigerant System Charge .

recovery/recycling/charging station that meets SAE standard J2210 to the refrigerant system. 3.
Refer to A/C SPECIFICATIONS or the Underhood HVAC Specification Label for the proper amount
of the refrigerant charge. 4. Measure the proper amount of refrigerant and heat it to 52° C (125° F)
with the charging station. See the operating instructions supplied by the
equipment manufacturer for proper use of this equipment.
5. Open both the suction and discharge valves, then open the charge valve to allow the heated
refrigerant to flow into the system. 6. When the transfer of refrigerant has stopped, close both the
suction and discharge valves. 7. If all of the refrigerant charge did not transfer from the dispensing
device, open all of the windows in the vehicle and set the heating-A/C system
controls so that the A/C compressor is engaged and the blower motor is operating at its lowest
speed setting. Run the engine at a steady high idle (about 1400 rpm). If the A/C compressor does
not engage, test the compressor clutch circuits and repair as required.
WARNING: Take care not to open the discharge (high pressure) valve at this time. Failure to follow
this warning may result in serious or fatal injury.
8. Open the low-side valve to allow the remaining refrigerant to transfer to the refrigerant system. 9.

REFRIGERANT OIL LEVEL
When an A/C system is assembled at the factory, all components except the A/C compressor are
refrigerant oil free. After the refrigerant system has been charged and operated, the refrigerant oil
in the A/C compressor is dispersed throughout the refrigerant system. The accumulator, A/C
evaporator, A/C condenser and the A/C compressor will each retain a significant amount of the
needed refrigerant oil.
It is important to have the correct amount of refrigerant oil in the A/C system. This ensures proper
lubrication of the A/C compressor. Too little oil will result in damage to the A/C compressor, while
too much oil will reduce the cooling capacity of the A/C system and consequently result in higher
discharge air temperatures.
CAUTION: The refrigerant oil in the R-134a A/C system is unique depending on the A/C
compressor used. Use only PAG oils that are designed to work with R-134a refrigerant and the A/C
compressor in the vehicle. Always refer to the A/C Underhood Specification Label for the correct oil
designation. The oil container should be kept tightly capped until it is ready for use and then tightly
capped after use to prevent contamination from dirt and moisture. Refrigerant oil will quickly absorb
any moisture it comes in contact with, therefore, special effort must be used to keep all R-134a
system components moisture-free. Moisture in the refrigerant oil is very difficult to remove and will
cause a reliability problem with the A/C compressor.
NOTE: Most reclaim/recycling equipment will measure the lubricant being removed during
recovery. This amount of lubricant should be added back into the system.
It will not be necessary to check the oil level in the A/C compressor or to add oil, unless there has
been an oil loss. An oil loss may occur due to a rupture or leak from a refrigerant line, a connector
fitting, a component, or a component seal. If a leak occurs, add 30 milliliters (1 fluid ounce) of
refrigerant oil to the refrigerant system after the repair has been made. Refrigerant oil loss will be
evident at the leak point by the presence of a wet, shiny surface around the leak.
Refrigerant oil must be added when an A/C accumulator, A/C evaporator or A/C condenser is
replaced. See the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart.
The refrigerant oil level in a new A/C compressor must first be adjusted prior to compressor
installation (refer to COMPRESSOR OIL DRAIN PROCEDURE).
COMPRESSOR OIL DRAIN PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Be certain to adjust the refrigerant system oil level when replacing an A/C compressor.
Failure to properly drain and measure the refrigerant oil from the A/C compressor can prevent the
A/C system from operating as designed and cause serious compressor damage.
The A/C compressor is filled with refrigerant oil from the factory. Use the following procedure to
drain and measure refrigerant oil from the A/C compressor.
1. Drain all of the refrigerant oil from the old A/C compressor into a clean measured container. 2.
Drain all of the refrigerant oil from the new A/C compressor into a clean measured container. 3.
Refill the new A/C compressor with the same amount of refrigerant oil that was drained out of the
old compressor. Use only clean refrigerant oil of
the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
4. Install the new A/C compressor onto the engine See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Compressor

Refrigerant Oil: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The refrigerant oil used in R-134a refrigerant systems is a synthetic-based, polyalkylene glycol
(PAG), wax-free lubricant. Mineral-based R-12 refrigerant oils are not compatible with PAG oils,
and should never be introduced to an R-134a refrigerant system.
There are different PAG oils available, and each contains a different additive package. Use only
refrigerant oil of the same type as recommended to service the refrigerant system (always refer to
the specification tag included with the replacement A/C compressor or the A/C Underhood
Specification Label located in the engine compartment).
The Denso 10S17 A/C compressor used in this vehicle when equipped with the 3.7L, 4.7L or 5.7L
engine is designed to use ND-8 PAG refrigerant oil. Use only this type of refrigerant oil when
servicing the A/C compressor for these engines.
The Visteon HS-18 A/C compressor used in this vehicle when equipped with 5.9L or 6.7L diesel
engine is designed to use VC-46 PAG refrigerant oil. Use only this type of refrigerant oil when
servicing this A/C compressor.

Refrigerant Oil: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
After performing any refrigerant recovery or recycling operation, always replenish the refrigerant
system with the same amount of the recommended refrigerant oil as was removed. Too little
refrigerant oil can cause A/C compressor damage, and too much can reduce A/C system
performance.
PAG refrigerant oil is more hygroscopic than mineral oil, and will absorb any moisture it comes into
contact with, even moisture in the air. The PAG oil container should always be kept tightly capped
until it is ready to be used. After use, recap the oil container immediately to prevent moisture
contamination.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2679
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fuse: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off Draw (IOD) fuse that is disconnected within the
Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) when the vehicle is shipped from the factory. Dealer
personnel are to reconnect the IOD fuse in the TIPM as part of the new vehicle preparation
procedures and then disconnect it again until new vehicle delivery to the customer.
A laser printed fuse layout map is integral to the TIPM cover to ensure proper fuse identification.
The IOD fuse is a 20 ampere mini blade-type fuse. The fuse is secured within a black molded
plastic fuse holder and puller unit that serves both as a tool for disconnecting and reconnecting the
fuse in the TIPM cavity, and as a fuse holder that conveniently stores the fuse in the same cavity
after it has been disconnected.

Fuse: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The term Ignition-Off Draw (IOD) identifies a normal condition where power is being drained from
the battery with the ignition switch in the Off position. The IOD fuse feeds the memory and sleep
mode functions for some of the electronic modules in the vehicle as well as various other
accessories that require battery current when the ignition switch is in the Off position. The only
reason the IOD fuse is disconnected is to reduce the normal IOD of the vehicle electrical system
during new vehicle transportation and pre-delivery storage to reduce battery depletion, while still
allowing vehicle operation so that the vehicle can be loaded, unloaded and moved as needed by
both vehicle transportation company and dealer personnel.
The IOD fuse is disconnected from Integrated Power Module (IPM) fuse cavity # 51 when the
vehicle is shipped from the assembly plant. Dealer personnel must reconnect the IOD fuse when
the vehicle is being prepared for delivery in order to restore full electrical system operation. Once
the vehicle is prepared for delivery, the IOD function of this fuse becomes transparent and the fuse
that has been assigned the IOD designation becomes only another Fused B(+) circuit fuse.
The IOD fuse can be used by the vehicle owner as a convenient means of reducing battery
depletion when a vehicle is to be stored for periods not to exceed about thirty days. However, it
must be remembered that disconnecting the IOD fuse will not eliminate IOD, but only reduce this
normal condition. If a vehicle will be stored for more than about thirty days, the battery negative
cable should be disconnected to eliminate normal IOD; and, the battery should be tested and
recharged at regular intervals during the vehicle storage period to prevent the battery from
becoming discharged or damaged.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2714
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Low Tire Pressure Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However,
on vehicles not equipped with the optional TPM, this indicator is electronically disabled. This
indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in the instrument cluster overlay.
The TPM indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of an icon that represents a cross-section of a
tire with a centered exclamation point in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The
dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the translucent outer layer of the overlay
when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster
electronic circuit board.
The TPM indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Low Tire Pressure Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the status
of the TPM system. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit
board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the cluster from the
Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The TPM indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provide a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn ON the TPM indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the SKREEM sends an
electronic TPM indicator lamp-ON message to the cluster to illuminate the TPM indicator for about
three seconds as a bulb test.
- TPM Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic TPM indicator
lamp-ON message from the SKREEM, the TPM indicator will be illuminated. The indicator can be
flashed ON and OFF, or illuminated solid, as dictated by the SKREEM message. The indicator
remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the SKREEM or until the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no TPM lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the
SKREEM for six consecutive seconds, the TPM indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster.
The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid lamp-ON or lamp-OFF
message is received from the SKREEM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the TPM indicator will be
turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of
the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The SKREEM performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position to
decide whether the TPM system is in good operating condition and whether the tire inflation
pressures are too high or too low. The SKREEM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF
message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab
Compartment Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the TPM indicator after the bulb test, it
indicates that the inflation pressure of a tire is too low or that a malfunction has occurred and the
TPM system is ineffective.
For proper diagnosis of the TPM system, the SKREEM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the
electronic communication related to TPM indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. This indicator
is located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster, between the tachometer and the
speedometer.
The MIL consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for
Engine in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay
prevents 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 indicator to appear in
amber through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the
LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The MIL is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on vehicles with a gasoline engine, or the Engine Control
Module (ECM) on vehicles with a diesel engine has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for
an On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) emissions-related circuit or component malfunction. The MIL is
controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming
and electronic messages received by the cluster from the PCM or ECM over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) data bus.
The MIL Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates
when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn ON the MIL for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the indicator is illuminated
for about two seconds as a bulb test. The entire bulb test is a function of the PCM or ECM.
- MIL Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic MIL lamp-ON message
from the PCM or ECM, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator can be flashed ON and OFF,
or illuminated solid, as dictated by the PCM or ECM message. For some DTCs, if a problem does
not recur, the PCM or ECM will send a lamp-OFF message automatically. Other DTCs may require
that a fault be repaired and the PCM or ECM be reset before a lamp-OFF message will be sent.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the PCM
or ECM for about 10 seconds, the MIL is illuminated by the instrument cluster to indicate a loss of
bus communication. The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid
message is received from the PCM or ECM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the MIL indicator will be
turned ON during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the
cluster control circuitry.
The PCM or ECM continually monitors the fuel and emissions system circuits and sensors to
decide whether the system is in good operating condition. The PCM or ECM then sends the proper
lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known
as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If the EMIC turns ON the MIL after the bulb test, it may
indicate that a malfunction has occurred and that the fuel and emissions systems may require
service.
For proper diagnosis of the fuel and emissions systems, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the CAN
data bus or the electronic communication related to MIL operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required.

Oil Change Reminder Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A change oil indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
manufactured for export markets or vehicles equipped with the optional diesel engine, this indicator
is electronically disabled. The change oil indication appears within the odometer Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. The change oil indicator consists of cycling textual CHAngE and
OIL messages which appear in place of the odometer information in the odometer display.
The odometer VFD is soldered onto the cluster electronic circuit board, and is visible through a
window with a smoked clear lens located on the lower edge of the speedometer gauge dial face of
the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD prevents it from being clearly visible when it is not
illuminated. The change oil textual messages appear in the same blue-green color and at the same
lighting level as the odometer information when they are illuminated by the instrument cluster
electronic circuit board.
The change oil indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD in the instrument cluster.

Oil Change Reminder Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The change oil indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when a duty-cycle algorithm
contained within the software of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) determines that a
recommended oil change interval has been attained. This indicator is controlled by the instrument
cluster logic circuit based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the PCM.
The change oil indicator function of the odometer Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit is
completely controlled by the instrument 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 odometer VFD change oil indication will
always be OFF when the ignition switch is in any position except ON or START. The instrument
cluster will turn ON the change oil indicator for the following reasons:
- Change Oil Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position and the cluster receives an electronic change oil indicator lamp-ON message from the
PCM indicating that a duty-cycle based recommended oil change interval has been attained, the
change oil indicator will be illuminated for about three seconds, until the trip odometer reset switch
button is depressed, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Change Oil Indicator Reset Procedure - Once an engine oil change has been completed, the
PCM duty cycle counters can be reset using the following procedure. Turn the ignition switch to the
ON position, but DO NOT start the engine. Slowly depress and release the accelerator pedal fully
three times within ten seconds. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. If the change oil
indicator illuminates the next time the engine is started, repeat this procedure.
The PCM continually monitors numerous sensor inputs to determine the duty-cycles to which the
engine is being subjected. A pre-programmed algorithm within the PCM then determines when to
send the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For proper diagnosis of the change oil indicator, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the
electronic communication related to change oil indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transponder (2), also known as a trigger module, is located in the front wheel wells (behind the
wheelhouse splash shields) of the vehicle to provide the WCM/SKREEM with the location of the
front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Wireless Control Module (WCM), commonly referred to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry
Module (SKREEM), uses transponders (trigger modules) located in the front wheel wells on the
vehicle to provide it with the location of the front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle. Like the base
system, the WCM receives RF signals from all four rotating wheel speed sensors. When the WCM
needs to know which sensor is located at a particular location on the vehicle, it directs the
transponder at that location to send out a low frequency signal to excite the nearby sensor. The
WCM then receives that excited signal and knows where that sensor is located. This auto-locating
process only happens in the first 10 minutes of any WCM cycle while traveling at speeds above 20
mph (32 km/h) (Each WCM cycle ends when the vehicle has been shut off for a time period of
approximately 20 minutes or longer). If the TPMS fails to localize, the TPM indicator lamp will flash
on/off for 75 seconds, and remain on solid.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Service Precautions
CAUTION
CAUTION: The use of tire sealants is not recommended for vehicles equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring system. Tire sealants may clog tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: It is not recommended to install a tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. Use tire
pressure sensors in original style factory wheels only.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, cap and valve core must
be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System, one tire pressure sensor (6) is
mounted to each wheel in place of the traditional tire valve stem. Each sensor has an internal
battery that lasts up to 10 years. The battery is not serviceable. At the time of battery failure, the
sensor (6) must be replaced. The TPM system operates on a 315 MHz radio frequency. The 315
MHz sensors can be easily identified by a GREEN sensor body, with (an triangle insignia) (1). The
433 MHz sensors can be identified by a grey sensor body with an oval insignia. For car
applications, there is a 315 MHz TPM sensor with a Black sensor body with an oval insignia.
NOTE: This vehicle uses the 315 MHz TPM sensor with the GREEN sensor body. Although 315
MHz and 433 MHz sensors are identical in size and shape, they are not interchangeable. Always
make sure the correct color sensor is being used. A RKE-TPM Analyzer can be used to determine
the sensor's frequency without having to dismount the tire.
The TPM sensors are designed for original style factory wheels. It is not recommended to install a
tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. (This could cause sealing and system performance
issues.)
The serviceable components of the tire pressure sensor are:
- Sensor-To-Wheel Seal (4)
- Valve Stem Cap (2)
- Valve Stem Core
- Valve Stem Nut (3)
The valve stem caps and cores used are specifically designed for the tire pressure monitoring
sensors. Although similar to standard valve stem caps and cores, they are different. The valve
stem cap has a special seal inside to keep moisture and corrosion out. The valve stem core has a
special nickel coating to protect from corrosion.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
CAUTION: The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system
operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same
size, type, and/or style. After-market wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use aftermarket tire
sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.
CAUTION: After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure always reinstall the valve stem cap. This
will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Sensor.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, nut, cap and valve core
must be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.
The battery operated tire pressure sensor is both a transmitter and a receiver. The TPM sensor can
be forced to transmit if using a special tool such as a TPM-RKE Analyzer, or from a transponder.
The TPM-RKE Analyzer has the ability to change the sensor mode and to diagnose a faulty TPM
sensor. Using a TPM-RKE Analyzer can take up to a minute to force a transmission from a sensor.
The High Pressure TPM sensor can be in one of the following modes:
Sleep Mode - A new TPM sensor will be in this mode. If placed on the vehicle as a road tire, the
TPM sensor will transmit once every 20 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15 mph
(24 km/h). If the vehicle is not moving, the sensor will only transmit on a pressure change greater
then 2 psi (13.8 kPA). Driving the vehicle continuously at speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h) for more
then 4 minutes will change the sensor state into 30 BLOCK MODE. The TPM sensor will not return
to SLEEP MODE. Now, if the vehicle has been stopped for 20 minutes, the TPM sensor state will
change to PARK MODE.
- Park Mode - This is the correct mode when the vehicle is not moving. The sensor will transmit
once every 13 hours to update the WCM, or will transmit on a 2 psi (13.8 kPA) delta change. The
sensors will internally take a measurement of the tire pressure every minute to determine a change
in tire pressure.
- 30 Block Mode - If the vehicle has not been moving for more then 20 minutes, or if the sensor's
mode was forced to Park Mode using a TPM-RKE Analyzer, the sensor's operating mode will
transition from PARK MODE to 30 BLOCK MODE once the vehicle is driven over 15 mph. In this
mode, the sensor will transmit once every 15 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15
mph (24 km/h) for the first 30 transmissions. After 8 minutes of continuous driving above 15 mph
(24 km/h), the TPM sensor will change to DRIVE MODE.
Drive Mode - In this mode, the sensor will transmit once every minute when the vehicle is driven at
speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h). At any time that the vehicle speed drops below 15mph, the sensor
will not transmit. The sensor mode will still be in drive mode when the sensor reaches speeds over
15 mph (24 km/h). If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, the TPM sensor will
change to PARK MODE.
Each sensor's (transmitter) broadcast is uniquely coded so that the wireless control module (WCM)
can monitor the state of each of the sensors on the four rotating road wheels. The WCM can
automatically learn and store the sensor's ID while driving "within 10 minutes continuously above
15 m.p.h. (24 Km/h)" after a sensor has been replaced. The vehicle must be stationary for more
then 20 minutes in order to initiate the learning sequence.
The sensor IDs can also be programmed using the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool. Scan each TPM
sensor at each road wheel, and store each Sensor ID in the correct location. (LEFT FRONT, LEFT
REAR, RIGHT FRONT, and RIGHT REAR) Connect the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool to the Scan Tool.
Then follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic Scan Tool for "Program Tire Pressure
Sensor ID w/ TPM Tool" under "MISC" for the "WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE".

Tire Pressure Sensor: Testing and Inspection
TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR
NOTE: Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) during normal driving conditions.
Do NOT reduce this normal pressure build up.
NOTE: Tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12 F (6.5 C). This
means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will also decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure.
When diagnosing a tire pressure issue, always check air pressure in the tires first with a known
accurate air gauge. Adjust air pressure as necessary to that listed on the Tire Inflation Pressure
Label (Placard) provided with the vehicle (usually applied to the driver's side B-pillar). After
adjusting air pressure in a tire on the vehicle, allow approximately two minutes for the message or
indicator lamp to go out.
Check the tire pressure indicator lamp in the instrument cluster. If the lamp is illuminating
continuously, inspect all the tires for leaks. A water "dunk tank" or other water test may be used to
check for leaks around the sensor as long as any water at the valve core is removed once the
procedure is completed. The water can be easily expelled from the core area by pushing in on the
core for several seconds, allowing escaping air to drive out any moisture. Reinflate the tire as
necessary. Always make sure the original valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out
of the sensor. If the gauge-read pressure in the tires does not indicate a tire pressure issue, refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.
If the indicator lamp is flashing on/off for 75 seconds and then remains on solid, a system fault was
detected. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

REMOVAL
1. Raise and support vehicle. 2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. See: Service and
Repair/Removal and Replacement
CAUTION: The cap used on this valve stem contains an O-ring seal to prevent contamination and
moisture from entering the valve stem. Retain this valve stem cap for reuse. Do not substitute a
regular valve stem cap in its place.
CAUTION: The valve stem used on this vehicle is made of aluminum and the core is nickel plated
brass. The original valve stem core must be reinstalled and not substituted with a valve stem core
made of a different material. This is required to prevent corrosion in the valve stem caused by the
different metals.
3. Let the air out of the tire. 4. Remove the nut (3). 5. Push the sensor into the tire (1) (so the
sensor is loose inside the tire). 6. Remove the tire from the rim. 7. Retrieve the sensor (1) from the

NOTE: Before reinstalling an existing tire pressure sensor (6), replace valve cap (2), nut (3), valve
core and sensor seal (4) to ensure proper sealing.
NOTE: The notch/flat should be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
1. Wipe area clean around sensor/valve stem mounting hole in wheel. Make sure surface of wheel
is not damaged.
2. Insert sensor (1) through wheel (2) as shown keeping pressure against rear of metal valve stem
(See Arrow). Potted side of sensor is to be
positioned toward wheel. Damage to the sensor may occur if the sensor is installed incorrectly.
NOTE: A flat on the seal seat is used to key the seat to the sensor housing. The notch/flat should
be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
3. Install sensor nut (3) and hand tighten.
NOTE: Before tightening sensor nut, push downward on sensor housing (2) in an attempt to make
it flush with interior contour of wheel (1).
4. While holding sensor in position, tighten sensor nut to 6 Nm (53 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: Over-tightening the sensor to as much as 10 Nm (88 in. lbs.) may result in sensor
separation from the valve stem. Under this condition, the sensor may still function, however, the
condition should be corrected immediately.
5. Mount tire on wheel following tire changer manufacturer's instructions, paying special attention to
the following to avoid damaging tire pressure
sensor: a.

Rotating Wheel Tire Changers- Once the wheel is mounted to the changer, position the sensor
valve stem (2) approximately 180° from the head of the changer (located at 1) in a clockwise
direction before rotating the wheel (also in a clockwise direction) to mount the tire. Use this
procedure on both the upper and lower tire beads.
b.
Rotating Tool Tire Changers - Position the wheel on the changer so that the sensor valve stem (1)
is located approximately 180° clockwise from the installation end of the mounting/dismounting tool
(2) once the tool is mounted for tire installation. Make sure the sensor is clear of the lower bead
breaker area (3) to avoid damaging the sensor when the breaker rises. Rotate the tool (2) in a
counterclockwise direction to mount the tire. Use this procedure on both the upper and lower tire
beads.
6. Adjust air pressure to that listed on Tire Inflation Pressure Label (Placard) provided with vehicle
(usually applied to driver's side B-pillar). Make
sure original style valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out of sensor.
7. Install tire and wheel assembly on vehicle. See: Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement
8. Lower vehicle. 9. If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, drive the vehicle
for a minimum of 10 minutes while maintaining a continuous speed
above 15 mph (24 km/h). During this time, the system will learn the new sensor ID. A new sensor
ID can also be programmed directly into the WCM by using a RKE-TPM Analyzer in conjunction
with a Scan Tool. Once the new sensor ID has been programmed, the RKE-TPM Analyzer can be
used to update the TPMS by activating the sensor.
NOTE: If a sensor cannot be trained, refer to appropriate diagnostic information.

Low Tire Pressure Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However,
on vehicles not equipped with the optional TPM, this indicator is electronically disabled. This
indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in the instrument cluster overlay.
The TPM indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of an icon that represents a cross-section of a
tire with a centered exclamation point in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The
dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the translucent outer layer of the overlay
when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster
electronic circuit board.
The TPM indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Low Tire Pressure Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the status
of the TPM system. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit
board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the cluster from the
Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The TPM indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provide a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn ON the TPM indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the SKREEM sends an
electronic TPM indicator lamp-ON message to the cluster to illuminate the TPM indicator for about
three seconds as a bulb test.
- TPM Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic TPM indicator
lamp-ON message from the SKREEM, the TPM indicator will be illuminated. The indicator can be
flashed ON and OFF, or illuminated solid, as dictated by the SKREEM message. The indicator
remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the SKREEM or until the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no TPM lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the
SKREEM for six consecutive seconds, the TPM indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster.
The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid lamp-ON or lamp-OFF
message is received from the SKREEM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the TPM indicator will be
turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of
the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The SKREEM performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position to
decide whether the TPM system is in good operating condition and whether the tire inflation
pressures are too high or too low. The SKREEM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF
message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab
Compartment Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the TPM indicator after the bulb test, it
indicates that the inflation pressure of a tire is too low or that a malfunction has occurred and the
TPM system is ineffective.
For proper diagnosis of the TPM system, the SKREEM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the
electronic communication related to TPM indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transponder (2), also known as a trigger module, is located in the front wheel wells (behind the
wheelhouse splash shields) of the vehicle to provide the WCM/SKREEM with the location of the
front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle.

Tire Pressure Monitor Receiver / Transponder: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Wireless Control Module (WCM), commonly referred to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry
Module (SKREEM), uses transponders (trigger modules) located in the front wheel wells on the
vehicle to provide it with the location of the front tire pressure sensors on the vehicle. Like the base
system, the WCM receives RF signals from all four rotating wheel speed sensors. When the WCM
needs to know which sensor is located at a particular location on the vehicle, it directs the
transponder at that location to send out a low frequency signal to excite the nearby sensor. The
WCM then receives that excited signal and knows where that sensor is located. This auto-locating
process only happens in the first 10 minutes of any WCM cycle while traveling at speeds above 20
mph (32 km/h) (Each WCM cycle ends when the vehicle has been shut off for a time period of
approximately 20 minutes or longer). If the TPMS fails to localize, the TPM indicator lamp will flash
on/off for 75 seconds, and remain on solid.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Service Precautions
CAUTION
CAUTION: The use of tire sealants is not recommended for vehicles equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring system. Tire sealants may clog tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: It is not recommended to install a tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. Use tire
pressure sensors in original style factory wheels only.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, cap and valve core must
be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System, one tire pressure sensor (6) is
mounted to each wheel in place of the traditional tire valve stem. Each sensor has an internal
battery that lasts up to 10 years. The battery is not serviceable. At the time of battery failure, the
sensor (6) must be replaced. The TPM system operates on a 315 MHz radio frequency. The 315
MHz sensors can be easily identified by a GREEN sensor body, with (an triangle insignia) (1). The
433 MHz sensors can be identified by a grey sensor body with an oval insignia. For car
applications, there is a 315 MHz TPM sensor with a Black sensor body with an oval insignia.
NOTE: This vehicle uses the 315 MHz TPM sensor with the GREEN sensor body. Although 315
MHz and 433 MHz sensors are identical in size and shape, they are not interchangeable. Always
make sure the correct color sensor is being used. A RKE-TPM Analyzer can be used to determine
the sensor's frequency without having to dismount the tire.
The TPM sensors are designed for original style factory wheels. It is not recommended to install a
tire pressure sensor in an aftermarket wheel. (This could cause sealing and system performance
issues.)
The serviceable components of the tire pressure sensor are:
- Sensor-To-Wheel Seal (4)
- Valve Stem Cap (2)
- Valve Stem Core
- Valve Stem Nut (3)
The valve stem caps and cores used are specifically designed for the tire pressure monitoring
sensors. Although similar to standard valve stem caps and cores, they are different. The valve
stem cap has a special seal inside to keep moisture and corrosion out. The valve stem core has a
special nickel coating to protect from corrosion.

Tire Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
CAUTION: The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system
operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same
size, type, and/or style. After-market wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use aftermarket tire
sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.
CAUTION: After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure always reinstall the valve stem cap. This
will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Sensor.
CAUTION: Tire pressure sensor valve stem caps and cores are specially designed for the sensors.
Due to risk of corrosion, do not use a standard valve stem cap or core in a tire pressure sensor in
place of the original equipment style sensor cap and core.
CAUTION: Any time a sensor is to be reinstalled in a wheel, a new seal, nut, cap and valve core
must be installed on the stem to ensure air tight sealing.
NOTE: TPM thresholds have been established for the original tire size equipped on the vehicle.
Use original size tires only to maintain system accuracy.
The battery operated tire pressure sensor is both a transmitter and a receiver. The TPM sensor can
be forced to transmit if using a special tool such as a TPM-RKE Analyzer, or from a transponder.
The TPM-RKE Analyzer has the ability to change the sensor mode and to diagnose a faulty TPM
sensor. Using a TPM-RKE Analyzer can take up to a minute to force a transmission from a sensor.
The High Pressure TPM sensor can be in one of the following modes:
Sleep Mode - A new TPM sensor will be in this mode. If placed on the vehicle as a road tire, the
TPM sensor will transmit once every 20 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15 mph
(24 km/h). If the vehicle is not moving, the sensor will only transmit on a pressure change greater
then 2 psi (13.8 kPA). Driving the vehicle continuously at speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h) for more
then 4 minutes will change the sensor state into 30 BLOCK MODE. The TPM sensor will not return
to SLEEP MODE. Now, if the vehicle has been stopped for 20 minutes, the TPM sensor state will
change to PARK MODE.
- Park Mode - This is the correct mode when the vehicle is not moving. The sensor will transmit
once every 13 hours to update the WCM, or will transmit on a 2 psi (13.8 kPA) delta change. The
sensors will internally take a measurement of the tire pressure every minute to determine a change
in tire pressure.
- 30 Block Mode - If the vehicle has not been moving for more then 20 minutes, or if the sensor's
mode was forced to Park Mode using a TPM-RKE Analyzer, the sensor's operating mode will
transition from PARK MODE to 30 BLOCK MODE once the vehicle is driven over 15 mph. In this
mode, the sensor will transmit once every 15 seconds when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 15
mph (24 km/h) for the first 30 transmissions. After 8 minutes of continuous driving above 15 mph
(24 km/h), the TPM sensor will change to DRIVE MODE.
Drive Mode - In this mode, the sensor will transmit once every minute when the vehicle is driven at
speeds over 15 mph (24 km/h). At any time that the vehicle speed drops below 15mph, the sensor
will not transmit. The sensor mode will still be in drive mode when the sensor reaches speeds over
15 mph (24 km/h). If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, the TPM sensor will
change to PARK MODE.
Each sensor's (transmitter) broadcast is uniquely coded so that the wireless control module (WCM)
can monitor the state of each of the sensors on the four rotating road wheels. The WCM can
automatically learn and store the sensor's ID while driving "within 10 minutes continuously above
15 m.p.h. (24 Km/h)" after a sensor has been replaced. The vehicle must be stationary for more
then 20 minutes in order to initiate the learning sequence.
The sensor IDs can also be programmed using the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool. Scan each TPM
sensor at each road wheel, and store each Sensor ID in the correct location. (LEFT FRONT, LEFT
REAR, RIGHT FRONT, and RIGHT REAR) Connect the TPM-RKE Analyzer Tool to the Scan Tool.
Then follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic Scan Tool for "Program Tire Pressure
Sensor ID w/ TPM Tool" under "MISC" for the "WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE".

Tire Pressure Sensor: Testing and Inspection
TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR
NOTE: Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) during normal driving conditions.
Do NOT reduce this normal pressure build up.
NOTE: Tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12 F (6.5 C). This
means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will also decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure.
When diagnosing a tire pressure issue, always check air pressure in the tires first with a known
accurate air gauge. Adjust air pressure as necessary to that listed on the Tire Inflation Pressure
Label (Placard) provided with the vehicle (usually applied to the driver's side B-pillar). After
adjusting air pressure in a tire on the vehicle, allow approximately two minutes for the message or
indicator lamp to go out.
Check the tire pressure indicator lamp in the instrument cluster. If the lamp is illuminating
continuously, inspect all the tires for leaks. A water "dunk tank" or other water test may be used to
check for leaks around the sensor as long as any water at the valve core is removed once the
procedure is completed. The water can be easily expelled from the core area by pushing in on the
core for several seconds, allowing escaping air to drive out any moisture. Reinflate the tire as
necessary. Always make sure the original valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out
of the sensor. If the gauge-read pressure in the tires does not indicate a tire pressure issue, refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.
If the indicator lamp is flashing on/off for 75 seconds and then remains on solid, a system fault was
detected. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

REMOVAL
1. Raise and support vehicle. 2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. See: Service and
Repair/Removal and Replacement
CAUTION: The cap used on this valve stem contains an O-ring seal to prevent contamination and
moisture from entering the valve stem. Retain this valve stem cap for reuse. Do not substitute a
regular valve stem cap in its place.
CAUTION: The valve stem used on this vehicle is made of aluminum and the core is nickel plated
brass. The original valve stem core must be reinstalled and not substituted with a valve stem core
made of a different material. This is required to prevent corrosion in the valve stem caused by the
different metals.
3. Let the air out of the tire. 4. Remove the nut (3). 5. Push the sensor into the tire (1) (so the
sensor is loose inside the tire). 6. Remove the tire from the rim. 7. Retrieve the sensor (1) from the

Tire Pressure Sensor: Service and Repair Installation
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before reinstalling an existing tire pressure sensor (6), replace valve cap (2), nut (3), valve
core and sensor seal (4) to ensure proper sealing.
NOTE: The notch/flat should be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
1. Wipe area clean around sensor/valve stem mounting hole in wheel. Make sure surface of wheel
is not damaged.
2. Insert sensor (1) through wheel (2) as shown keeping pressure against rear of metal valve stem
(See Arrow). Potted side of sensor is to be
positioned toward wheel. Damage to the sensor may occur if the sensor is installed incorrectly.
NOTE: A flat on the seal seat is used to key the seat to the sensor housing. The notch/flat should
be lined up together and facing towards the wheel during installation.
3. Install sensor nut (3) and hand tighten.
NOTE: Before tightening sensor nut, push downward on sensor housing (2) in an attempt to make
it flush with interior contour of wheel (1).
4. While holding sensor in position, tighten sensor nut to 6 Nm (53 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: Over-tightening the sensor to as much as 10 Nm (88 in. lbs.) may result in sensor
separation from the valve stem. Under this condition, the sensor may still function, however, the
condition should be corrected immediately.
5. Mount tire on wheel following tire changer manufacturer's instructions, paying special attention to
the following to avoid damaging tire pressure
sensor: a.

Rotating Wheel Tire Changers- Once the wheel is mounted to the changer, position the sensor
valve stem (2) approximately 180° from the head of the changer (located at 1) in a clockwise
direction before rotating the wheel (also in a clockwise direction) to mount the tire. Use this
procedure on both the upper and lower tire beads.
b.
Rotating Tool Tire Changers - Position the wheel on the changer so that the sensor valve stem (1)
is located approximately 180° clockwise from the installation end of the mounting/dismounting tool
(2) once the tool is mounted for tire installation. Make sure the sensor is clear of the lower bead
breaker area (3) to avoid damaging the sensor when the breaker rises. Rotate the tool (2) in a
counterclockwise direction to mount the tire. Use this procedure on both the upper and lower tire
beads.
6. Adjust air pressure to that listed on Tire Inflation Pressure Label (Placard) provided with vehicle
(usually applied to driver's side B-pillar). Make
sure original style valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out of sensor.
7. Install tire and wheel assembly on vehicle. See: Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement
8. Lower vehicle. 9. If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, drive the vehicle
for a minimum of 10 minutes while maintaining a continuous speed
above 15 mph (24 km/h). During this time, the system will learn the new sensor ID. A new sensor
ID can also be programmed directly into the WCM by using a RKE-TPM Analyzer in conjunction
with a Scan Tool. Once the new sensor ID has been programmed, the RKE-TPM Analyzer can be
used to update the TPMS by activating the sensor.
NOTE: If a sensor cannot be trained, refer to appropriate diagnostic information.

Tires: Description and Operation Tires - Description
Tires
TIRES
Tires are designed and engineered for each specific vehicle. They provide the best overall
performance for normal operation. The ride and handling characteristics match the vehicle's
requirements. With proper care they will give excellent reliability, traction, skid resistance, and tread
life.
Driving habits have more effect on tire life than any other factor. Careful drivers will obtain in most
cases, much greater mileage than severe use or careless drivers. A few of the driving habits which
will shorten the life of any tire are:
- Rapid acceleration
- Severe brake applications
- High speed driving
- Excessive speeds on turns
- Striking curbs and other obstacles
Radial-ply tires are more prone to irregular tread wear. It is important to follow the tire rotation
interval See: Service and Repair/Procedures . This will help to achieve a greater tread life.
TIRE IDENTIFICATION
Tire type, size, aspect ratio and speed rating are encoded in the letters and numbers imprinted on
the side wall of the tire. Refer to the chart to decipher the tire identification code.
Performance tires have a speed rating letter after the aspect ratio number. The speed rating is not
always printed on the tire sidewall. These ratings are:
- Q up to 99 mph
- S up to 112 mph
- T up to 118 mph
- U up to 124 mph
- H up to 130 mph
V up to 149 mph
W (consult the tire manufacturer for the specific speed rating)
- Z more than 149 mph (consult the tire manufacturer for the specific speed rating)
An All Season type tire will have either M + S, M & S or M-S (indicating mud and snow traction)
imprinted on the side wall.
TIRE CHAINS
Tire snow chains may be used on certain models.
Radial - Ply Tires
RADIAL - PLY TIRES
Radial-ply tires improve handling, tread life and ride quality, and decrease rolling resistance.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Tires > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Spare Tire > Page 2874
Radial-ply tires must always be used in sets of four. Under no circumstances should they be used
on the front only. They may be mixed with temporary spare tires when necessary. A maximum
speed of 80 KMH (50 MPH) is recommended while a temporary spare is in use.
Radial-ply tires have the same load-carrying capacity as other types of tires of the same size. They
also use the same recommended inflation pressures.
The use of oversized tires, either in the front or rear of the vehicle, can cause vehicle drive train
failure. This could also cause inaccurate wheel speed signals when the vehicle is equipped with
Anti-Lock Brakes.
The use of tires from different manufactures on the same vehicle is NOT recommended. The
proper tire pressure should be maintained on all four tires.
Tire Pressure For High Speeds
TIRE PRESSURE FOR HIGH SPEEDS
For proper tire pressure specification refer to the Owners Manual.
Tire Inflation Pressures
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURES
WARNING: Over or under inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and tread wear. This may cause
the tire to fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
Under inflation will cause rapid shoulder wear (1), tire flexing, and possible tire failure.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Tires > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Spare Tire > Page 2875
Over inflation will cause rapid center wear (1) reduction in the tire's ability to cushion shocks.
Improper inflation can cause:
- Uneven wear patterns
- Reduced tread life
- Reduced fuel economy

Spare / Temporary Tire
SPARE / TEMPORARY TIRE
The temporary spare tire is designed for emergency use only. The original tire should be repaired
or replaced at the first opportunity, then reinstalled. Do not exceed speeds of 80 KMH (50 MPH).
when using the temporary spare tire.
Replacement Tires
REPLACEMENT TIRES
The original equipment tires provide a proper balance of many characteristics such as:
- Ride
- Noise
- Handling
- Durability
- Tread life
- Traction
- Rolling resistance
- Speed capability
It is recommended that tires equivalent to the original equipment tires be used when replacement is
needed.
Failure to use equivalent replacement tires may adversely affect the safety and handling of the
vehicle.
The use of oversize tires may cause interference with vehicle components. Under extremes of
suspension and steering travel, interference with vehicle components may cause tire damage.
WARNING: Failure to equip the vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in
sudden tire failure.

Tires: Testing and Inspection Tread Wear Indicators
TREAD WEAR INDICATORS
Tread wear indicators (3) are molded into the bottom of the tread grooves. When tread depth is 1.6
mm (1/16 in.), the tread wear indicators (3) will appear as a 13 mm (1/2 in.) band.
Tire replacement is necessary when indicators appear in two or more grooves or if localized
balding occurs.

Tires: Testing and Inspection Tire Wear Patterns
TIRE WEAR PATTERNS
Under inflation will cause wear on the shoulders of tire. Over inflation will cause wear at the center
of tire.
Excessive camber causes the tire to run at an angle to the road. One side of tread is then worn
more than the other.
Excessive toe-in or toe-out causes wear on the tread edges and a feathered effect across the
tread.

Tires: Testing and Inspection Tire Noise Or Vibration
TIRE NOISE OR VIBRATION
Radial-ply tires are sensitive to force impulses caused by improper mounting, vibration, wheel
defects, or possibly tire imbalance.
To find out if tires are causing the noise or vibration, drive the vehicle over a smooth road at
varying speeds. Note the noise level during acceleration and deceleration. The engine, differential
and exhaust noises will change as speed varies, while the tire noise will usually remain constant.

Tires: Removal and Replacement
TIRE REPAIR AREA
For proper repairing, a radial tire must be removed from the wheel. Repairs should only be made if
the defect, or puncture, is in the tread area (1). The tire should be replaced if the puncture is
located in the sidewall.
Deflate tire completely before removing the tire from the wheel. Use lubrication such as a mild soap
solution when dismounting or mounting tire. Use tools free of burrs or sharp edges which could
damage the tire or wheel rim.
Before mounting tire on wheel, make sure all rust is removed from the rim bead and repaint if
necessary.
Install wheel on vehicle, and tighten to proper torque specification.

NOTE:
This information applies to any model equipped with Chrome Clad Wheels.
DISCUSSION:
Models equipped with Chrome Clad wheels require specific piloting on balance equipment to
properly center the wheel and prevent damage to the chrome clad surface. The chrome cladding is
not removable or replaceable and has cladding tabs that extend into the wheel bore. Traditional
high-taper cones will come into contact with the cladding tabs rather than properly seat on the hub
bore chamfer. Many modern aluminum wheel designs cannot be mounted with traditional cones.
Direct-Fit Collets should be used to properly mount clad wheels on balance equipment (Fig 1).
SPECIAL TOOLS/EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:
NOTE:
This kit includes the adapters for all Dodge, Chrysler & Jeep models with clad wheels. Individual
adapters for specific wheel sizes can be ordered separately. To order a kit or individual adapters,
contact Pentastar Service Equipment @ 1-800-223-5623.

Wheels: Description and Operation Wheel Design
WHEEL DESIGN
The rim size is on the vehicle safety certification label located on the drivers door shut face.
Original equipment wheels/rims are designed for operation up to the specified maximum vehicle
capacity.
All models use stamped steel, cast aluminum or forged aluminum wheels. Every wheel has raised
sections between the rim flanges (1) and rim drop well (3) called safety humps.
Initial inflation of the tire forces the bead over these raised sections. In case of rapid loss of air
pressure, the raised sections help hold the tire on the wheel.
The wheel studs and nuts are designed for specific applications. All aluminum and some steel
wheels have wheel stud nuts with an enlarged nose. This enlarged nose is necessary to ensure
proper retention of the wheels. Do not use replacement studs or nuts with a different design or
lesser quality.

Wheels: Description and Operation Wheels
WHEELS
Original equipment wheels are designed for the specified Maximum Vehicle Capacity.
All models use steel or aluminum drop center wheels.
Aluminum wheels require special balance weights and alignment equipment.
1. On vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels, the rim is an eight stud hole pattern wheel. The
wheels have a flat mounting surface (1).
2. The slots (1) in the wheel must be aligned to provide access to the valve stem.

Wheels: Testing and Inspection
WHEEL INSPECTION
Inspect wheels for:
- Excessive run out
- Dents or cracks
- Damaged wheel lug nut holes
- Air Leaks from any area or surface of the rim
NOTE: Do not attempt to repair a wheel by hammering, heating or welding.
If a wheel is damaged an original equipment replacement wheel should be used. When obtaining
replacement wheels, they should be equivalent in load carrying capacity. The diameter, width,
offset, pilot hole and bolt circle of the wheel should be the same as the original wheel.
WARNING: Failure to use equivalent replacement wheels may adversely affect the safety and
handling of the vehicle. Used wheels are not recommended. The service history of the wheel may
have included severe treatment or very high mileage. The rim could fail without warning.
WARNING: Daimlerchrysler corporation does not recommend that customers use "reconditioned"
wheels (wheels that have been damaged and repaired) because they can result in a sudden
catastrophic wheel failure which could cause loss of control and result in injury or death.
For Clarification:
- Cosmetic refinishing for the purpose of repairing a superficial flaw is an acceptable procedure
providing it is limited to paint or clear coat only, the wheel is not modified in any way, and there is
no exposure to paint curing heat over 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Damaged wheels are those which have been bent, broken, cracked or sustained some other
physical damage which may have compromised the wheel structure
- Repaired indicates that the wheel has been modified through bending, welding, heating,
straightening, or material removal to rectify damage.
- Re-plating of chrome plated wheels is not an acceptable procedure nor is chrome plating of
original equipment painted or polished wheels, as this may alter mechanical properties and affect
fatigue life.

Towing Information: Service and Repair Towing
STANDARD PROCEDURE
A vehicle equipped with SAE approved sling-type towing equipment can be used to tow all
vehicles. When towing a 4WD vehicle using a wheel-lift towing device, use tow dollies under the
opposite end of the vehicle. A vehicle with flat-bed device can also be used to transport a disabled
vehicle.
A wooden crossbeam may be required for proper connection when using the sling-type, front-end
towing method.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: The following safety precautions must be observed when towing a vehicle:
- Secure loose and protruding parts.
- Always use a safety chain system that is independent of the lifting and towing equipment.
- Do not allow towing equipment to contact the disabled vehicle's fuel tank.
- Do not allow anyone under the disabled vehicle while it is lifted by the towing device.
- Do not allow passengers to ride in a vehicle being towed.
- Always observe state and local laws regarding towing regulations.
- Do not tow a vehicle in a manner that could jeopardize the safety of the operator, pedestrians or
other motorists.
- Do not attach tow chains, T-hooks, J-hooks, or a tow sling to a bumper, steering linkage, drive
shafts or a non-reinforced frame hole.
- Do not tow a heavily loaded vehicle. Damage to the cab, cargo box or frame may result. Use a
flatbed device to transport a loaded vehicle.
GROUND CLEARANCE
CAUTION: If vehicle is towed with wheels removed, install lug nuts to retain brake drums or rotors.
A towed vehicle should be raised until lifted wheels are a minimum 100 mm (4 in) from the ground.
Be sure there is adequate ground clearance at the opposite end of the vehicle, especially when
towing over rough terrain or steep rises in the road. If necessary, remove the wheels from the lifted
end of the vehicle and lower the vehicle closer to the ground, to increase the ground clearance at
the opposite end of the vehicle. Install lug nuts on wheel attaching studs to retain brake drums or
rotors.
RAMP ANGLE
If a vehicle with flat-bed towing equipment is used, the approach ramp angle should not exceed 15
degrees.
TOWING WHEN KEYS ARE NOT AVAILABLE
When the vehicle is locked and keys are not available, use a flat bed hauler. A Wheel-lift or
Sling-type device can be used on 4WD vehicles provided all the wheels are lifted off the ground
using tow dollies.
FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLE TOWING
DaimlerChrysler Corporation recommends that a vehicle be transported on a flat-bed device. A
Wheel-lift or Sling-type device can be used provided all

the wheels are lifted off the ground using tow dollies.
WARNING: When towing a disabled vehicle and the drive wheels are secured in a wheel lift or tow
dollies, ensure the transmission is in the park position (automatic transmission) or a forward drive
gear (manual transmission).
CAUTION: Many vehicles are equipped with air dams, spoilers, and/or ground effect panels. To
avoid component damage, a wheel-lift towing vehicle or a flat-bed hauling vehicle is recommended.

Towing Information: Service and Repair Trailer Towing - NAFTA
TRAILER TOWING - NAFTA
In this section you will find safety tips and information on limits to the type of towing you can
reasonably do with your vehicle. Before towing a trailer carefully review this information to tow your
load as efficiently and safely as possible.
To maintain warranty coverage, follow the requirements and recommendations concerning vehicles
used for trailer towing.
Common Towing Definitions
The following trailer towing related definitions will assist you in understanding the following
information:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your vehicle. This includes driver, passengers, cargo
and tongue weight. The total load must be limited so that you do not exceed the GVWR.
Gross Trailer Weight (GTW)
The gross trailer weight (GTW) is the weight of the trailer plus the weight of all cargo, consumables
and equipment (permanent or temporary) loaded in or on the trailer in its "loaded and ready for
operation" condition. The recommended way to measure GTW is to put your fully loaded trailer on
a vehicle scale. The entire weight of the trailer must be supported by the scale.
Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR)
The gross combination weight rating (GCWR) is the total permissible weight of your vehicle and
trailer when weighed in combination. (Note that GCWR ratings include a 68 kg (150 lbs) allowance
for the presence of a driver).
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum capacity of the front and rear axles. Distribute the load over the front
and rear axles evenly. Make sure that you do not exceed either front or rear GAWR.
WARNING: It is important that you do not exceed the maximum front or rear GAWR. A dangerous
driving condition can result if either rating is exceeded. You could lose control of the vehicle and
have an accident.
Tongue Weight (TW)
The downward force exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer. In most cases it should not be less than
10% or more than 15% of the trailer load. You must consider this as part of the load on your
vehicle.
Frontal Area
The maximum height and maximum width of the front of a trailer.
Trailer Sway Control
The trailer sway control is a telescoping link that can be installed between the hitch receiver and
the trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable friction associated with the telescoping motion to
dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling.
Weight-Carrying Hitch
A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue weight, just as if it were luggage located at a
hitch ball or some other connecting point of the truck. These kind of hitches are the most popular
on the market today and they're commonly used to tow small- and medium-sized trailers.
Weight-Distributing Hitch
A weight-distributing system works by applying leverage through spring (load) bars. They are
typically used for heavier loads, to distribute trailer tongue weight to the tow vehicle's front axle and
the trailer axle(s). When used in accordance with the manufacturers' directions, it provides for a
more level ride, offering more consistent steering and brake control thereby enhancing towing
safety. The addition of a friction / hydraulic sway control also dampens sway caused by traffic and
crosswinds and contributes positively to tow vehicle and trailer stability. Trailer sway control and a
weight distributing (load equalizing) hitch are recommended for heavier Tongue Weights (TW) and
may be required depending on Vehicle and Trailer configuration / loading to comply with gross axle
weight rating (GAWR) requirements.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Towing Information > System Information > Service and Repair > Towing >
Page 2930
WARNING: An improperly adjusted Weight Distributing Hitch system may reduce handling,
stability, braking performance, and could result in an accident.
Weight Distributing Systems may not be compatible with Surge Brake Couplers. Consult with your
hitch and trailer manufacturer or a reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for additional information.
Fifth-Wheel Hitch
A special high platform with a coupling that mounts over the rear axle of the tow vehicle in the truck
bed. Connects a vehicle and fifth-wheel trailer with a coupling king pin.
Gooseneck Hitch
The gooseneck hitch employs a pivoted coupling arm which attaches to a ball mounted in the bed
of a pickup truck. The coupling arm connects to the hitch mounted over the rear axle in the truck
bed.
Trailer Hitch Classification
The rear bumper is intended to tow trailers up to 2,000 lbs (907 kg) without added equipment or
alterations to the standard equipment. Your vehicle may be factory equipped for safe towing of
trailers weighing over 2,000 lbs (907 kg) with the optional Trailer Tow Prep Package. See your
dealer for package content.
The following chart provides the industry standard for the maximum trailer weight a given trailer
hitch class can tow and should be used to assist you in selecting the correct trailer hitch for your
intended towing condition.
All trailer hitches should be professionally installed on your vehicle.
Trailer Towing Weights (Maximum Trailer Weight Ratings)
Trailer and Tongue Weight
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Towing Information > System Information > Service and Repair > Towing >
Page 2931
Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer. This places 10% to
15% of the Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) on the tow hitch of your vehicle. Loads balanced over the
wheels or heavier in the rear can cause the trailer to swayseverely side to side which will cause
loss of control of vehicle and trailer. Failure to load trailers heavier in front is the cause of many
trailer accidents.
Never exceed the maximum tongue weight stamped on your bumper or trailer hitch.
Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle of the vehicle:
- The tongue weight of the trailer.
- The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle.
- The weight of the driver and all passengers.
NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also,
additional factory-installed options, or dealer-installed options, must be considered as part of the
total load on your vehicle.
Towing Requirements
To promote proper break-in of your new vehicle drivetrain components the following guidelines are
recommended:
CAUTION:
- Avoid towing a trailer for the first 500 miles (805 km) of vehicle operation. Doing so may damage
your vehicle.
- During the first 500 miles (805 km) of trailer towing, limit your speed to 50 mph (80 km/h).
WARNING: Your vehicle may require special axle lubricant.
Perform the maintenance listed of this manual. When towing a trailer, never exceed the GAWR, or
GCWR, ratings.
WARNING: Improper towing can lead to an injury accident. Follow these guidelines to make your
trailer towing as safe as possible:
Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering
cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to
control. You could lose control of your vehicle and have an accident.
- When hauling cargo or towing a trailer, do not overload your vehicle or trailer. Overloading can
cause a loss of control, poor performance or damage to brakes, axle, engine, transmission,
steering, suspension, chassis structure or tires.
- Safety chains must always be used between your vehicle and trailer. Always connect the chains
to the frame or hook retainers of the vehicle hitch. Cross the chains under the trailer tongue and
allow enough slack for turning corners.
- Vehicles with trailers should not be parked on a grade. When parking, apply the parking brake on
the tow vehicle. Put the tow vehicle automatic transmission in P for Park. With a manual
transmission, shift the transmission into reverse. And with four-wheel-drive vehicles, make sure the
transfer case is not in neutral. Always, block or "chock" the trailer wheels.
- GCWR must not be exceeded.
- Total weight must be distributed between the tow vehicle and the trailer such that the following
four ratings are not exceeded:
- GVWR
- GTW
- GAWR
- Tongue weight rating for the trailer hitch utilized (This requirement may limit the ability to always
achieve the 10% to 15% range of tongue weight as a percentage of total trailer weight).
Towing Requirements - Tires
- Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a compact spare tire.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Towing Information > System Information > Service and Repair > Towing >
Page 2932
- Proper tire inflation pressures are essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle.
- Also, check the trailer tires for proper tire inflation pressures before trailer usage.
- Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire damage before towing a trailer.
- When replacing tires, Replacing tires with a higher load carrying capacity will not increase the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR limits.
Towing Requirements - Trailer Brakes
- Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake system or vacuum system of your vehicle with that of the
trailer. This could cause inadequate braking and possible personal injury.
- An electronically actuated trailer brake controller is required when towing a trailer with
electronically actuated brakes. When towing a trailer equipped with a hydraulic surge actuated
brake system, an electronic brake controller is not required.
- Trailer brakes are recommended for trailers over 1,000 lbs (454 kg) and required for trailers in
excess of 2,000 lbs (907 kg).
CAUTION: If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs (454 kg) loaded, it should have its own brakes
and they should be of adequate capacity. Failure to do this could lead to accelerated brake lining
wear, higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping distances.
WARNING: Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehicle's hydraulic brake lines. It can overload
your brake system and cause it to fail. You might not have brakes when you need them and could
have an accident.
Towing any trailer will increase your stopping distance. When towing you should allow for additional
space between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. Failure to do so could result in an
accident.
Towing Requirements - Trailer Lights & Wiring
Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the trailer size, stop lights and turn signals on the trailer
are required for motoring safety.
The Trailer Tow Package may include a 4 and 7 pin wiring harness. Use a factory approved trailer
harness and connector.
NOTE: Do not cut or splice wiring into the vehicles wiring harness.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer
connector. Refer to the following illustrations.
Towing Tips
Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away from
heavy traffic.
If using a manual transmission vehicle for trailer towing, all starts must be in FIRST gear to avoid
excessive clutch slippage.
Towing Tips - Automatic Transmission
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Towing Information > System Information > Service and Repair > Towing >
Page 2933
The "D" range can be selected when towing. However, if frequent shifting occurs while in this
range, the "TOW HAUL" or "OD/OFF" range should be selected.
NOTE: Using the "TOW HAUL" or "OD/OFF" range while operating the vehicle under heavy
operating conditions will improve performance and extend transmission life by reducing excessive
shifting and heat build up. This action will also provide better engine braking.
The automatic transmission fluid and filter should be changed if you REGULARLY tow a trailer for
more than 45 minutes of continuous operation.
NOTE: Check the automatic transmission fluid level before towing.
Towing Tips - Tow/Haul (If Equipped)
To reduce potential for automatic transmission overheating, turn the "TOW HAUL OD/OFF" feature
ON when driving in hilly areas or shift the transmission to Drive position 2 on more severe grades.
Towing Tips - Electronic Speed Control (If Equipped)
- Don't use in hilly terrain or with heavy loads.
- When using the speed control, if you experience speed drops greater than 10 mph (16 km/h),
disengage until you can get back to cruising speed.
- Use speed control in flat terrain and with light loads to maximize fuel efficiency.
Towing Tips - Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and transmission overheating, take the following actions:
- City Driving - When stopped for short periods of time, put transmission in neutral and increase
engine idle speed.
- Highway Driving - Reduce speed.
- Air Conditioning - Turn off temporarily.
- refer to Cooling System Operating information in the Maintenance section of this manual for more
information.
Trailer Towing Mirrors - If Equipped
These mirrors are designed with an adjustable mirror head to provide a greater vision range when
towing extra-wide loads. To change position inboard or outboard, the mirror head should be rotated
(flipped Out or In). A small blindspot mirror is integrated onto the main mirror surface.
NOTE: Fold the 7 x 10 inch trailer towing mirrors rearward prior to entering an automated car wash.

Connecting Rod: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
PISTONS
The piston is constructed of aluminum and is gravity cast, free floating design. The piston
incorporates a centrally located high swirl combustion bowl, and utilizes a "keystone" style top
compression ring, and a "Tapered Face" intermediate ring, for superior cylinder wall scraping.
Piston cooling nozzles cool the piston and pin with engine oil supplied by the crankshaft main
journals. All pistons are gallery cooled and utilize J-jet piston cooling nozzles. Pistons are
directional in order to provide clearance to piston cooling nozzles.
CONNECTING RODS
The connecting rods are a split angle design. They have a pressed-in-place wrist pin bushing that
is lubricated by piston cooling nozzle oil spray.
Machined connecting rods are no longer used in the diesel engine. Do not install machined
connecting rods into an engine that has fractured split connecting rods.
Fractured split connecting rods are first manufactured as a single piece and then fractured into two
pieces. Fractured split connecting rods can be identified by a rough and irregular surface at the
connecting rod split face. To properly assemble the rod cap to the connecting rod, the bearing
tangs on the connecting rod and cap must be located on the same side of the rod. The long end of
the connecting rod must be assembled on the intake or camshaft side of the engine.
Each matched fractured split connecting rod and cap is an assembly and are not interchangeable.
If a connecting rod or cap is damaged, the entire assembly must be replaced.

Piston and Connecting Rod - Cleaning
CLEANING
CAUTION: DO NOT use bead blast to clean the pistons. DO NOT clean the pistons and rods in an
acid tank.
PISTON
Clean the pistons and pins in a suitable solvent, rinse in hot water and blow dry with compressed
air. Soaking the pistons over night will loosen most of the carbon build up. De-carbon the ring
grooves with a broken piston ring and again clean the pistons in solvent. Rinse in hot water and
blow dry with compressed air.
CONNECTING ROD
Clean the connecting rods in a suitable solvent, rinse in hot water and blow dry with compressed
air.
Piston and Connecting Rod - Inspection
CONNECTING ROD
Inspect the connecting rod for damage and wear. The I-Beam section of the connecting rod cannot
have dents or other damage. Damage to this part can cause stress risers which will progress to
breakage.
Measure the connecting rod pin bore (1). The maximum diameter is 40.042 mm (1.5765 inch),
minimum diameter is 40.019 mm (1.5756 inch). If out of limits, replace the connecting rod.

Piston: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
PISTONS
The piston is constructed of aluminum and is gravity cast, free floating design. The piston
incorporates a centrally located high swirl combustion bowl, and utilizes a "keystone" style top
compression ring, and a "Tapered Face" intermediate ring, for superior cylinder wall scraping.
Piston cooling nozzles cool the piston and pin with engine oil supplied by the crankshaft main
journals. All pistons are gallery cooled and utilize J-jet piston cooling nozzles. Pistons are
directional in order to provide clearance to piston cooling nozzles.
CONNECTING RODS
The connecting rods are a split angle design. They have a pressed-in-place wrist pin bushing that
is lubricated by piston cooling nozzle oil spray.
Machined connecting rods are no longer used in the diesel engine. Do not install machined
connecting rods into an engine that has fractured split connecting rods.
Fractured split connecting rods are first manufactured as a single piece and then fractured into two
pieces. Fractured split connecting rods can be identified by a rough and irregular surface at the
connecting rod split face. To properly assemble the rod cap to the connecting rod, the bearing
tangs on the connecting rod and cap must be located on the same side of the rod. The long end of
the connecting rod must be assembled on the intake or camshaft side of the engine.
Each matched fractured split connecting rod and cap is an assembly and are not interchangeable.
If a connecting rod or cap is damaged, the entire assembly must be replaced.

HEAD GASKET SELECTION
1. Measure piston protrusion for all six pistons. 2. Calculate the average piston protrusion.
Maximum allowable protrusion is 0.516 mm (0.020 inch).
NOTE: There is only one head gasket available for the 6.7L engine.
Piston and Connecting Rod - Inspection
PISTONS
Inspect the pistons for damage and excessive wear. Check top of the piston, ring grooves, skirt and
pin bore. Measure the piston skirt diameter. If the piston is out of limits, replace the piston.
The upper groove only needs to be inspected for damage. Use a new piston ring (2) to measure
the clearance in the intermediate ring groove. Minimum clearance is 0.045 mm (0.0018 inch),
maximum clearance is 0.095 mm (.0037 inch). If the clearance of the intermediate ring exceeds
specifications, replace the piston (3).
Use a new oil ring to measure the clearance in the oil groove. Minimum clearance is 0.040 mm
(0.0016 inch), maximum clearance is 0.085 mm (.0033 inch). If the clearance exceeds
specifications, replace the piston.
Measure the pin bore (2). The maximum diameter is 40.012 mm (1.5753 inch), Minimum is 40.006
mm (1.575 inch). If the bore is over limits, replace the piston (1).

Drive Belt: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
VISUAL DIAGNOSIS
NOTE: Diesel Engine - If a belt is broken or frayed, inspect engine speed sensor ( located near the
crankshaft damper) for damage.
When diagnosing serpentine accessory drive belts, small cracks that run across the ribbed surface
of the belt from rib to rib , are considered normal. These are not a reason to replace the belt.
However, cracks running along a rib (not across) are not normal. Any belt with cracks running
along a rib must be replaced. Also replace the belt if it has excessive wear, frayed cords or severe
glazing.
Refer to ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT DIAGNOSIS CHART for further belt diagnosis.
NOISE DIAGNOSIS
Noises generated by the accessory drive belt are most noticeable at idle. Before replacing a belt to
resolve a noise condition, inspect all of the accessory drive pulleys for alignment, glazing, or
excessive end play.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

plug and drain the used engine oil into the
container.
3. Always check the condition of the used oil. This can give you an indication of engine problems
that might exist.
- Thin, black oil indicates fuel dilution.
- Milky discoloration indicates coolant dilution.
4. Clean the area around the oil filter head. Remove the filter See: Oil Filter/Service and
Repair/Removal . 5. Install new oil filter See: Oil Filter/Service and Repair/Installation . 6. Clean the
drain plug and the sealing surface of the pan. Check the condition of the threads and sealing
surface on the oil pan and drain plug. 7. Install the drain plug. Tighten the plug to 50 Nm (37 ft. lbs.)
torque. 8. Use only High-Quality Low Ash Multi-Viscosity lubricating oil in the Cummins Turbo
Diesel engine. Choose the correct oil for the operating
conditions.
9. Fill the engine with the correct grade of new oil See: Maintenance .
10. Start the engine and operate it at idle for several minutes. Check for leaks at the filter and drain
plug. 11. Stop engine. Wait 30 minutes to allow the oil to drain back to the pan and check the level
again.

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An oil pressure gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters except for ST vehicles with
a gasoline engine. This gauge is located in the upper right quadrant of the instrument cluster,
above the coolant temperature gauge. This gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer
controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay that
reads left-to-right from L (or Low) to H (or High) for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel
engine the scale reads from 0 kPa to 760 kPa in markets where a metric instrument cluster is
specified, or from 0 psi to 110 psi in all other markets.
An International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine Oil is located on the cluster overlay,
directly below the left end of the gauge scale. The oil pressure gauge graphics are black against a
white field except for a single red graduation at the low end of the gauge scale making them clearly
visible within the instrument cluster in daylight. When illuminated from behind by the panel lamps
dimmer controlled cluster general illumination lighting with the exterior lamps turned ON, the black
graphics appear blue-green and the red graphics still appear red. The gauge needle has internal
optical illumination. Gauge illumination is provided by replaceable incandescent bulb and holder
units located on the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The oil pressure gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The oil pressure gauge gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the engine oil pressure. This
gauge is controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and
electronic messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on vehicles
with a gasoline engine, or from the Engine Control Module (ECM) on vehicles equipped with a
diesel engine over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The oil pressure gauge is an air core magnetic unit that receives battery current on the instrument
cluster electronic circuit board through the fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit whenever
the ignition switch is in the ON or START positions. The cluster is programmed to move the gauge
needle back to the low end of the scale after the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position. The
instrument cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle position and provides the following features:
- Engine Oil Pressure Message - The instrument cluster circuitry restricts the oil pressure gauge
needle operation in order to provide readings that are consistent with customer expectations. Each
time the cluster receives an electronic engine oil pressure message from the PCM or ECM
indicating the pressure is above about 41 kPa (6 psi) the cluster holds the gauge needle at a point
near the middle increment within the normal range on the gauge scale.
Engine Oil Pressure Low Message - Each time the cluster receives three consecutive electronic
engine oil pressure messages from the PCM or ECM indicating the pressure is below about 41 kPa
(6 psi), the gauge needle is moved to the red graduation at the far left end of the gauge scale, the
check gauges indicator is illuminated, and a single chime tone is generated. The gauge needle
remains at the left end of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator remains illuminated until
the cluster receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating that the pressure is above about
41 kPa (6 psi), or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The
cluster will only turn ON the check gauges indicator in response to a low pressure message if the
engine speed is greater than zero.
- Communication Error - If the cluster fails to receive an engine oil pressure message, it will hold
the gauge needle at the last indication for about 10 seconds, or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first. After 10 seconds, the cluster will move the gauge needle
to the low end of the gauge scale.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the oil pressure gauge
needle will be swept to several calibration points on the gauge scale in a prescribed sequence in
order to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM (gasoline engines) or ECM (diesel engines) continually monitors the engine oil pressure
sensor to determine the engine oil pressure. The PCM or ECM then sends the proper messages to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the check gauges indicator due to a low oil pressure
gauge reading, it may indicate that the engine or the engine oiling system requires service.
For proper diagnosis of the engine oil pressure sensor, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the CAN
data bus or the electronic communication related to oil pressure gauge operation a diagnostic scan
tool is required.

Oil Pressure Warning Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A low oil pressure indicator is standard equipment only in the four-gauge instrument clusters of all
ST vehicles with a gasoline engine. This indicator is located on the left side of the instrument
cluster, to the left of the fuel gauge.
The low oil pressure indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and
Display Symbol icon for Engine Oil in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the
icon to appear in red through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from
behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The low oil pressure indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Oil Pressure Warning Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The low oil pressure indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the engine oil
pressure reading reflects a condition requiring immediate attention. This indicator is controlled by a
transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic
messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller
Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The low oil pressure indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the low oil pressure indicator for the following
reasons:
- Engine Oil Pressure Low Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine oil
pressure message from the PCM indicating the pressure is about 6.9 kPa (1 psi) or lower, the low
oil pressure indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives
a message from the PCM indicating that the pressure is above about 6.9 kPa (1 psi), or until the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The cluster will only turn the
indicator ON in response to low engine oil pressure if the engine speed is greater than zero.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the low oil pressure indicator
will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the
functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the engine oil pressure sensor to determine the engine oil pressure.
The PCM then sends the proper messages to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
(also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the low oil pressure
indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the engine oil pressure sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to low oil pressure indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool
is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An oil pressure gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters except for ST vehicles with
a gasoline engine. This gauge is located in the upper right quadrant of the instrument cluster,
above the coolant temperature gauge. This gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer
controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay that
reads left-to-right from L (or Low) to H (or High) for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel
engine the scale reads from 0 kPa to 760 kPa in markets where a metric instrument cluster is
specified, or from 0 psi to 110 psi in all other markets.
An International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine Oil is located on the cluster overlay,
directly below the left end of the gauge scale. The oil pressure gauge graphics are black against a
white field except for a single red graduation at the low end of the gauge scale making them clearly
visible within the instrument cluster in daylight. When illuminated from behind by the panel lamps
dimmer controlled cluster general illumination lighting with the exterior lamps turned ON, the black
graphics appear blue-green and the red graphics still appear red. The gauge needle has internal
optical illumination. Gauge illumination is provided by replaceable incandescent bulb and holder
units located on the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The oil pressure gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The oil pressure gauge gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the engine oil pressure. This
gauge is controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and
electronic messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on vehicles
with a gasoline engine, or from the Engine Control Module (ECM) on vehicles equipped with a
diesel engine over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The oil pressure gauge is an air core magnetic unit that receives battery current on the instrument
cluster electronic circuit board through the fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit whenever
the ignition switch is in the ON or START positions. The cluster is programmed to move the gauge
needle back to the low end of the scale after the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position. The
instrument cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle position and provides the following features:
- Engine Oil Pressure Message - The instrument cluster circuitry restricts the oil pressure gauge
needle operation in order to provide readings that are consistent with customer expectations. Each
time the cluster receives an electronic engine oil pressure message from the PCM or ECM
indicating the pressure is above about 41 kPa (6 psi) the cluster holds the gauge needle at a point
near the middle increment within the normal range on the gauge scale.
Engine Oil Pressure Low Message - Each time the cluster receives three consecutive electronic
engine oil pressure messages from the PCM or ECM indicating the pressure is below about 41 kPa
(6 psi), the gauge needle is moved to the red graduation at the far left end of the gauge scale, the
check gauges indicator is illuminated, and a single chime tone is generated. The gauge needle
remains at the left end of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator remains illuminated until
the cluster receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating that the pressure is above about
41 kPa (6 psi), or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The
cluster will only turn ON the check gauges indicator in response to a low pressure message if the
engine speed is greater than zero.
- Communication Error - If the cluster fails to receive an engine oil pressure message, it will hold
the gauge needle at the last indication for about 10 seconds, or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first. After 10 seconds, the cluster will move the gauge needle
to the low end of the gauge scale.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the oil pressure gauge
needle will be swept to several calibration points on the gauge scale in a prescribed sequence in
order to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM (gasoline engines) or ECM (diesel engines) continually monitors the engine oil pressure
sensor to determine the engine oil pressure. The PCM or ECM then sends the proper messages to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the check gauges indicator due to a low oil pressure
gauge reading, it may indicate that the engine or the engine oiling system requires service.
For proper diagnosis of the engine oil pressure sensor, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the CAN
data bus or the electronic communication related to oil pressure gauge operation a diagnostic scan
tool is required.

Oil Pressure Warning Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A low oil pressure indicator is standard equipment only in the four-gauge instrument clusters of all
ST vehicles with a gasoline engine. This indicator is located on the left side of the instrument
cluster, to the left of the fuel gauge.
The low oil pressure indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and
Display Symbol icon for Engine Oil in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the
icon to appear in red through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from
behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The low oil pressure indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Oil Pressure Warning Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The low oil pressure indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the engine oil
pressure reading reflects a condition requiring immediate attention. This indicator is controlled by a
transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic
messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller
Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The low oil pressure indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the low oil pressure indicator for the following
reasons:
- Engine Oil Pressure Low Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine oil
pressure message from the PCM indicating the pressure is about 6.9 kPa (1 psi) or lower, the low
oil pressure indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives
a message from the PCM indicating that the pressure is above about 6.9 kPa (1 psi), or until the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The cluster will only turn the
indicator ON in response to low engine oil pressure if the engine speed is greater than zero.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the low oil pressure indicator
will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the
functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the engine oil pressure sensor to determine the engine oil pressure.
The PCM then sends the proper messages to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
(also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the low oil pressure
indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the engine oil pressure sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to low oil pressure indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool
is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

lash by inserting a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and crosshead. Refer to VALVE
LASH LIMIT CHART for the correct specifications. If the measurement falls within the limits,
adjustment/resettingis not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resettingis required.
5. If adjustment/resetting is required, loosen the lock nut on rocker arms and turn the adjusting
screw until the desired lash is obtained:
- INTAKE 0.254 mm (0.010 in.)
- EXHAUST 0.660 mm (0.026 in.)
Tighten the lock nut to 24 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) and recheck the valve lash.
6. Using the crankshaft barring tool, rotate the crankshaft one revolution (360°) to align the damper
TDC mark to the 12 o'clock position.

WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core. The pump is driven from the engine
crankshaft by a single serpentine drive belt.
The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear of a shaft that rotates in bearings pressed into
the housing. The housing has two small holes to allow seepage to escape. The water pump seals
are lubricated by the antifreeze in the coolant mixture. No additional lubrication is necessary.
Water Pump Bypass
WATER PUMP BYPASS
The 3.7L and 4.7L engine uses an internal water/coolant bypass system. The design uses galleries
in the timing chain cover to circulate coolant during

Water Pump
WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core, this coolant absorbs the heat generated when
the engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine crankshaft via a drive belt.
Water Pump Bypass - 3.7L/4.7L
WATER PUMP BYPASS - 3.7L/4.7L
When the thermostat is in the closed position the bypass gallery is not obstructed allowing 100%
flow. When the thermostat is in the open position the pill partially covers the bypass hole, reducing
the amount of bypass flow. This design allows the coolant to reach operating temperature quickly
when cold, while adding extra cooling during normal temperature operation.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

Coolant: Description and Operation Engine Coolant
ENGINE COOLANT
WARNING: Antifreeze is an ethylene-glycol base coolant and is harmful if swallowed or inhaled. If
swallowed, drink two glasses of water and induce vomiting. If inhaled, move to fresh air area. Seek
medical attention immediately. Do not store in open or unmarked containers. Wash skin and
clothing thoroughly after coming in contact with ethylene-glycol. Keep out of reach of children.
Dispose of glycol base coolant properly, contact your dealer or government agency for location of
collection center in your area. Do not open a cooling system when the engine is at operating
temperature or hot under pressure, personal injury can result. Avoid radiator cooling fan when
engine compartment related service is performed, personal injury can result.
CAUTION: Use of Propylene-Glycol based coolants is not recommended, as they provide less
freeze protection and less corrosion protection.
The cooling system is designed around the coolant. The coolant must accept heat from engine
metal, in the cylinder head area near the exhaust valves and engine block. Then coolant carries the
heat to the radiator where the tube/fin radiator can transfer the heat to the air.
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (MS-9769), or the
equivalent ethylene-glycol base coolant with organic corrosion inhibitors (called HOAT, for Hybrid
Organic Additive Technology) is recommended. This coolant offers the best engine cooling without
corrosion when mixed with 50% ethylene-glycol and 50% distilled water to obtain a freeze point of
-37°C (-35°F). If it loses color or becomes contaminated, drain, flush, and replace with fresh
properly mixed coolant solution.
CAUTION: Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (MS-9769) may not be
mixed with any other type of antifreeze. Mixing of coolants other than specified (non-HOAT or other
HOAT) may result in engine damage that may not be covered under the new vehicle warranty, and
decreased corrosion protection.
COOLANT PERFORMANCE
The required ethylene-glycol and water mixture depends upon climate and vehicle operating
conditions. The coolant performance of various mixtures follows:
Pure Water- Water can absorb more heat than a mixture of water and ethylene-glycol. This is for
purpose of heat transfer only. Water also freezes at a higher temperature and allows corrosion.
100 percent Ethylene-Glycol - The corrosion inhibiting additives in ethylene-glycol need the
presence of water to dissolve. Without water, additives form deposits in system. These act as
insulation causing temperature to rise to as high as 149°C (300°F). This temperature is hot enough
to melt plastic. The increased temperature can result in sever engine damage. In addition, 100
percent ethylene-glycol freezes at -22°C (-8°F).
50/50 Ethylene-Glycol and Water - Is the recommended mixture, it provides protection against
freezing to -37°C (-34°F). The antifreeze concentration must always be a minimum of 44 percent,
year-round in all climates. If percentage is lower, engine parts may be eroded by cavitation.
Maximum protection against freezing is provided with a 68 percent antifreeze concentration, which
prevents freezing down to -67.7°C (-90°F). A higher percentage will freeze at a warmer
temperature. Also, a higher percentage of antifreeze can cause the engine to overheat because
specific heat of antifreeze is lower than that of water.
CAUTION: Richer antifreeze mixtures cannot be measured with normal field equipment and can
cause problems associated with 100 percent ethylene-glycol.

Operation
OPERATION
Coolant flows through the engine block, cylinder head, absorbing the heat from the engine, then
flows to the radiator where the cooling fins in the radiator transfers the heat from the coolant to the
atmosphere. On the 6.7L diesel engine, coolant also flows through the EGR cooler and
turbocharger actuator. During cold weather the ethylene-glycol or propylene-glycol coolant
prevents water present in the cooling system from freezing within temperatures indicated by
mixture ratio of coolant to water.

Coolant: Testing and Inspection
COOLANT CONCENTRATION TESTING
Coolant concentration should be checked when any additional coolant was added to system or
after a coolant drain, flush and refill. The coolant mixture offers optimum engine cooling and
protection against corrosion when mixed to a freeze point of -37°C (-34°F) to -46°C (-50°F). The
use of a hydrometer or Tool 8266, refractometer can be used to test coolant concentration.
A hydrometer will test the amount of glycol in a mixture by measuring the specific gravity of the
mixture. The higher the concentration of ethylene glycol, the larger the number of balls that will
float, and higher the freeze protection (up to a maximum of 60% by volume glycol).
A Refractometer Tool 8286 will test the amount of glycol in a coolant mixture by measuring the
amount a beam of light bends as it passes through the fluid.
Some coolant manufactures use other types of glycols into their coolant formulations. Propylene
glycol is the most common new coolant. However, propylene glycol based coolants do not provide
the same freezing protection and corrosion protection and are not recommended.
CAUTION: Do not mix types of coolant - corrosion protection will be severely reduced.

Coolant Reservoir: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The coolant reserve/overflow system works in conjunction with the radiator pressure cap. It utilizes
thermal expansion and contraction of coolant to keep coolant free of trapped air. It provides a
volume for expansion and contraction of coolant. It also provides a convenient and safe method for
checking coolant level and adjusting level at atmospheric pressure. This is done without removing
the radiator pressure cap. The system also provides some reserve coolant to the radiator to cover
minor leaks and evaporation or boiling losses.
As the engine cools, a vacuum is formed in the cooling system of both the radiator and engine.
Coolant will then be drawn from the coolant tank and returned to a proper level in the radiator.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Fan Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3340
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Heater Core: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Engine coolant is circulated through the heater hoses to the heater core at all times. As the coolant
flows through the heater core, heat is removed from the engine and is transferred to the heater
core tubes and fins. Air directed through the heater core picks up the heat from the heater core
fins. The blend-air door(s) allows control of the heater output air temperature by regulating the
amount of air flowing through the heater core. The blower motor speed controls the volume of air
flowing through the HVAC housing.
The heater core cannot be repaired and must be replaced if restricted, leaking or damaged.

Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An engine coolant temperature gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The engine
coolant temperature gauge is located in the lower right quadrant of the instrument cluster, below
the oil pressure gauge. The gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer controlled by the
instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay that reads left-to-right
from C (or Cold) to H (or Hot) for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel engine, the scale
reads from 60 °C to 120 °C in markets where a metric instrument cluster is specified, or from 140
°F to 245 °F in all other markets. An International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine
Coolant Temperature is located on the cluster overlay, directly below the left end of the gauge
scale.
The engine coolant temperature gauge graphics are black against a white field except for a single
red graduation at the high end of the gauge scale making them clearly visible within the instrument
cluster in daylight. When illuminated from behind by the panel lamps dimmer controlled cluster
illumination lighting with the exterior lamps turned ON, the black gauge graphics appear blue-green
and the red graphics still appear red. The gauge needle has internal optical illumination. Gauge
illumination is provided by replaceable incandescent bulb and holder units located on the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The engine coolant temperature gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The engine coolant temperature gauge gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the engine
coolant temperature. This gauge is controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon
cluster programming and electronic messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) on vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine, or the Engine Control Module (ECM)
on vehicles equipped with a diesel engine over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The engine coolant temperature gauge is an air core magnetic unit that receives battery current on
the instrument cluster electronic circuit board through the fused ignition switch output (run-start)
circuit whenever the ignition switch is in the ON or START positions. The cluster is programmed to
move the gauge needle back to the low end of the scale after the ignition switch is turned to the
OFF position. The instrument cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle position and provides the
following features:
- Engine Temperature Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine temperature
message from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is between the low end of normal
[about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °C (140 °F) for diesel engines] and the high
end of normal [about 122 °C (252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel
engines], the gauge needle is moved to the actual relative temperature position on the gauge
scale.
Engine Temperature Low Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine
temperature message from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is below the low end of
normal [about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °C (140 °F) for diesel engines], the
gauge needle is held at the graduation on the far left end of the gauge scale. The gauge needle
remains at the low end of the gauge scale until the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the temperature is above about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °
C (140 °F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever
occurs first.
- Engine Temperature High Message - Each time the cluster receives three consecutive electronic
engine temperature messages from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is above about
122 °C (252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel engines, the gauge
needle is moved to the red increment or zone at the far right end of gauge scale, the check gauges
indicator is illuminated, and a single chime tone is sounded. The gauge needle remains at the high
end of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator remains illuminated until the cluster
receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating that the temperature is below about 122 °C
(252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition
switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime tone feature will only repeat
during the same ignition cycle if the check gauges indicator is cycled OFF and then ON again by
the appropriate messages from the PCM or ECM.
- Communication Error - If the cluster fails to receive an engine temperature message, it will hold
the gauge needle at the last indication for about 10 seconds or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first. After 10 seconds, the cluster will move the gauge needle
to the low end of the gauge scale.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the engine coolant
temperature gauge needle will be swept to several calibration points on the gauge scale in a
prescribed sequence in order to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster control
circuitry.
The PCM (gasoline engine) or ECM (diesel engine) continually monitors the engine coolant
temperature sensor to determine the engine operating temperature. The PCM or ECM then sends
the proper messages to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab
Compartment Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the check gauges indicator due to a
high engine temperature gauge reading, it may indicate that the engine or the engine cooling
system requires service.
For proper diagnosis of the engine coolant temperature sensor, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the
CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to engine coolant temperature gauge
operation a diagnostic scan tool is required.

Radiator: Testing and Inspection
RADIATOR COOLANT FLOW
Use the following procedure to determine if coolant is flowing through the cooling system.
1. Idle engine until operating temperature is reached. If the upper radiator hose is warm to the
touch, the thermostat is opening and coolant is flowing
to the radiator.
WARNING: Hot, pressurized coolant can cause injury by scalding. Using a rag to cover the radiator
pressure cap, open radiator cap slowly to the first stop. This will allow any built-up pressure to vent
to the reserve/overflow tank. After pressure build-up has been released, remove cap from filler
neck.
2. Drain a small amount of coolant from the radiator until the ends of the radiator tubes are visible
through the filler neck. Idle the engine at normal
operating temperature. If coolant is flowing past the exposed tubes, the coolant is circulating.

Radiator Cap: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
All cooling systems are equipped with a pressure cap. For all engines, the pressure cap is located
on top of the radiator outlet tank. The cap releases pressure at some point within a range of
97-to-124 kPa (14-to-18 psi). The pressure relief point (in pounds) is engraved on top of the cap
The cooling system will operate at pressures slightly above atmospheric pressure. This results in a
higher coolant boiling point allowing increased radiator cooling capacity. The cap contains a
spring-loaded pressure relief valve. This valve opens when system pressure reaches the release
range of 97-to-124 kPa (14-to-18 psi).
A rubber gasket seals the radiator filler neck. This is done to maintain vacuum during coolant
cool-down and to prevent leakage when system is under pressure.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Cooling System > Radiator Cap > Component Information >
Description and Operation > Description > Page 3386
Radiator Cap: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
A vent valve in the center of the cap will remain shut as long as the cooling system is pressurized.
As the coolant cools, it contracts and creates a vacuum in the cooling system. This causes the
vacuum valve to open and coolant in the reserve/overflow container to be drawn through the
recovery hose connecting the filler neck and reserve/overflow container. If the vacuum valve is
stuck shut, or the recovery hose is kinked, radiator hoses will collapse on cool down.

Radiator Cap: Testing and Inspection Radiator Cap
RADIATOR CAP
Remove the cap from the radiator. Be sure that the sealing surfaces are clean. Moisten the rubber
gasket with water and install the cap on the pressure tester 7700 or an equivalent.
Operate the tester pump to bring the pressure to 104 kPa (15 psi) on the gauge. If the pressure cap
fails to hold pressure of at least 97 kPa (14 psi) replace the cap.
CAUTION.
The pressure cap may test properly while positioned on tool 7700 (or equivalent). It may not hold
pressure or vacuum when installed on the radiator. If so, inspect the radiator filler neck and radiator
cap's top gasket for damage. Also inspect for dirt or distortion that may prevent the cap from
sealing properly.
CAUTION: Radiator pressure testing tools are very sensitive to small air leaks which will not cause
cooling system problems. A pressure cap that does not have a history of coolant loss should not be
replaced just because it leaks slowly when tested with this tool. Add water to tool. Turn tool upside
down and recheck pressure cap to confirm that cap needs replacement.

Radiator Cap: Testing and Inspection Radiator Cap To Filler Neck Seal
RADIATOR CAP-TO-FILLER NECK SEAL
The pressure cap upper gasket (seal) pressure relief can be tested by removing overflow hose
from the radiator filler neck tube. Attach the hose of the pressure tester tool 7700 (or equivalent) to
the tube. It will be necessary to disconnect hose from its adapter for the filler neck. Pump air into
radiator. The pressure cap upper gasket should relieve at 69 to 124kPa (10 to 18 psi) and hold
pressure at a minimum of 55 kPa (8 psi).
WARNING: The warning words, "DO NOT OPEN HOT", on radiator pressure cap, are a safety
precaution. When hot, pressure builds up in cooling system. To prevent scalding or injury, radiator
cap should not be removed while system is hot and/or under pressure.
Do not remove the radiator cap at any time except for the following purposes:
- Check and adjust antifreeze freeze point.
- Refill the system with new antifreeze.
- Conducting service procedures.
- Checking for vacuum leaks.
WARNING: If vehicle has been run recently, wait at least 15 minutes before removing radiator cap.
With a rag, squeeze radiator upper hose to check if system is under pressure. Place a rag over cap
and without pushing cap down, rotate it counter-clockwise to first stop. Allow fluid to escape
through the coolant reserve/overflow hose into reserve/overflow tank. Squeeze radiator upper hose
to determine when pressure has been released. When coolant and steam stop being pushed into
tank and system pressure drops, remove radiator cap completely.

Hold cap at eye level, right side up. The vent valve at bottom of cap should closed. A slight
downward pull on the vent valve should open it. If the rubber gasket has swollen and prevents vent
valve from opening, replace cap.
Hold cap at eye level, upside down. If any light can be seen between vent valve and rubber gasket,
replace cap. A replacement cap must be the type designed for a coolant reserve/overflow system
with a completely sealed diaphragm spring and a rubber gasket. This gasket is used to seal to
radiator filler neck top surface. Use of proper cap will allow coolant return to radiator.

Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An engine coolant temperature gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The engine
coolant temperature gauge is located in the lower right quadrant of the instrument cluster, below
the oil pressure gauge. The gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer controlled by the
instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay that reads left-to-right
from C (or Cold) to H (or Hot) for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel engine, the scale
reads from 60 °C to 120 °C in markets where a metric instrument cluster is specified, or from 140
°F to 245 °F in all other markets. An International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine
Coolant Temperature is located on the cluster overlay, directly below the left end of the gauge
scale.
The engine coolant temperature gauge graphics are black against a white field except for a single
red graduation at the high end of the gauge scale making them clearly visible within the instrument
cluster in daylight. When illuminated from behind by the panel lamps dimmer controlled cluster
illumination lighting with the exterior lamps turned ON, the black gauge graphics appear blue-green
and the red graphics still appear red. The gauge needle has internal optical illumination. Gauge
illumination is provided by replaceable incandescent bulb and holder units located on the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The engine coolant temperature gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The engine coolant temperature gauge gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the engine
coolant temperature. This gauge is controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon
cluster programming and electronic messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) on vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine, or the Engine Control Module (ECM)
on vehicles equipped with a diesel engine over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The engine coolant temperature gauge is an air core magnetic unit that receives battery current on
the instrument cluster electronic circuit board through the fused ignition switch output (run-start)
circuit whenever the ignition switch is in the ON or START positions. The cluster is programmed to
move the gauge needle back to the low end of the scale after the ignition switch is turned to the
OFF position. The instrument cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle position and provides the
following features:
- Engine Temperature Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine temperature
message from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is between the low end of normal
[about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °C (140 °F) for diesel engines] and the high
end of normal [about 122 °C (252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel
engines], the gauge needle is moved to the actual relative temperature position on the gauge
scale.
Engine Temperature Low Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic engine
temperature message from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is below the low end of
normal [about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °C (140 °F) for diesel engines], the
gauge needle is held at the graduation on the far left end of the gauge scale. The gauge needle
remains at the low end of the gauge scale until the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the temperature is above about 54 °C (130 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 60 °
C (140 °F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever
occurs first.
- Engine Temperature High Message - Each time the cluster receives three consecutive electronic
engine temperature messages from the PCM or ECM indicating the temperature is above about
122 °C (252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel engines, the gauge
needle is moved to the red increment or zone at the far right end of gauge scale, the check gauges
indicator is illuminated, and a single chime tone is sounded. The gauge needle remains at the high
end of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator remains illuminated until the cluster
receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating that the temperature is below about 122 °C
(252 °F) for gasoline engines, or about 116 °C (240 °F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition
switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime tone feature will only repeat
during the same ignition cycle if the check gauges indicator is cycled OFF and then ON again by
the appropriate messages from the PCM or ECM.
- Communication Error - If the cluster fails to receive an engine temperature message, it will hold
the gauge needle at the last indication for about 10 seconds or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first. After 10 seconds, the cluster will move the gauge needle
to the low end of the gauge scale.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the engine coolant
temperature gauge needle will be swept to several calibration points on the gauge scale in a
prescribed sequence in order to confirm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster control
circuitry.
The PCM (gasoline engine) or ECM (diesel engine) continually monitors the engine coolant
temperature sensor to determine the engine operating temperature. The PCM or ECM then sends
the proper messages to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab
Compartment Node/CCN). If the instrument cluster turns ON the check gauges indicator due to a
high engine temperature gauge reading, it may indicate that the engine or the engine cooling
system requires service.
For proper diagnosis of the engine coolant temperature sensor, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the
CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to engine coolant temperature gauge
operation a diagnostic scan tool is required.

powertrain control module (PCM) detects low engine coolant temperature, it will record a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in the PCM memory. Do not change a thermostat for lack of heat
as indicated by the instrument panel gauge or by poor heater performance unless a DTC is
present.
The DTC can also be accessed through the scan tool.
DIESEL ENGINE
The cooling system used with the diesel engine provides the extra coolant capacity and extra
cooling protection needed for higher GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) and GCWR (Gross
Combined Weight Rating) vehicles.
This system capacity will not affect warm up or cold weather operating characteristics if the
thermostat is operating properly. This is because coolant will be held in the engine until it reaches
the thermostat "set" temperature.
Diesel engines, due to their inherent efficiency are slower to warm up than gasoline powered
engines, and will operate at lower temperatures when the vehicle is unloaded. Because of this,
lower temperature gauge readings for diesel versus gasoline engines may, at times be normal.
Typically, complaints of low engine coolant temperature are observed as low heater output when
combined with cool or cold outside temperatures.
To help promote faster engine warm-up, the electric engine block heater must be used with cool or
cold outside temperatures. This will help keep the engine coolant warm when the vehicle is parked.
A "Cold Weather Cover" is available from the parts department through the Mopar Accessories
product line. This accessory cover is designed to block airflow entering the radiator and engine
compartment to promote faster engine warm-up. It attaches to the front of the vehicle at the grill
opening. The cover is to be used with cool or cold temperatures only. If used with high outside
temperatures, serious engine damage could result.
For engines equipped with exhaust brakes, this device can be used to aid engine warm-up while
the engine is idling.
1. To determine if the thermostat is defective, it must be removed from the vehicle See: Service
and Repair/Engine Coolant Thermostat - Removal . 2. After the thermostat has been removed,
examine the thermostat and inside of thermostat housing for contaminants. If contaminants are
found, the
thermostat may already be in a "stuck open" position. Flush the cooling system before replacing
thermostat See: Service and Repair .
3. Place the thermostat into a container filled with water. 4. Place the container on a hot plate or
other suitable heating device. 5. Place a commercially available radiator thermometer into the
water. 6. Apply heat to the water while observing the thermostat and thermometer. 7. The
thermostat will begin to open at 85.5 - 89.4°C. (186 - 193°F ). If the valve starts to move before this
temperature is reached, it is opening too
early. Replace thermostat. The thermostat should be fully open (valve will stop moving) at 97°C
(207°F). If the valve is still moving when the water temperature reaches 97°C (207°F), it is opening
too late. Replace thermostat. If the valve refuses to move at any time, replace thermostat.

WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core. The pump is driven from the engine
crankshaft by a single serpentine drive belt.
The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear of a shaft that rotates in bearings pressed into
the housing. The housing has two small holes to allow seepage to escape. The water pump seals
are lubricated by the antifreeze in the coolant mixture. No additional lubrication is necessary.
Water Pump Bypass
WATER PUMP BYPASS
The 3.7L and 4.7L engine uses an internal water/coolant bypass system. The design uses galleries

Water Pump
WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core, this coolant absorbs the heat generated when
the engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine crankshaft via a drive belt.
Water Pump Bypass - 3.7L/4.7L
WATER PUMP BYPASS - 3.7L/4.7L
When the thermostat is in the closed position the bypass gallery is not obstructed allowing 100%
flow. When the thermostat is in the open position the pill partially covers the bypass hole, reducing
the amount of bypass flow. This design allows the coolant to reach operating temperature quickly
when cold, while adding extra cooling during normal temperature operation.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

SUBJECT: Diesel Particulate Filter - Diagnosis and Repair of DTC's P1451, P200C, P242F or
Black Smoke From Exhaust
OVERVIEW: This bulletin provides revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC's P1451,
P2OOC, P242F, black smoke from the exhaust, or a no start condition due to a nonfunctional or
plugged Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The Mobile DeSoot procedure initiated by the service tool
will soon be replaced with a new Stationary DeSoot procedure. The stationary DeSoot procedure
will only work when a vehicle needs to have a DeSoot performed, such as is indicated by the
presence of an active P1451. A Service Bulletin will be released when this procedure becomes
available.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination, warning chime and
an overhead Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message regarding the aftertreatment
system and/or black smoke from the exhaust and/or a no start condition.
Further Investigation by the technician may reveal that the MIL illumination and/or EVIC message
is due to one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's):
^ P1451 - Diesel Particulate Filter - System Performance.
^ P242F - Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction - Ash Accumulation.
^ P200C - Diesel Particulate Filter Over Temperature - Bank 1.
NOTE:
While the wiTECH tool is the preferred method of testing, StarMOBILE desktop client, StarMOBILE
standalone mode OR StarSCAN may also be used to perform this procedure.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC).
2. Turn the ignition key to the RUN position, DO NOT start the engine.
3. From the "Vehicle View" screen on the Scan Tool select:
a. "All DTCs" tab.
4. Record all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) that are present in the PCM.

It is IMPORTANT to record (capture) all DTC's present in the PCM prior to proceeding further with
this diagnosis.
5. Are DTC's P242F and/or P200C present, either active or stored, in the PCM, or does the vehicle
have visible black smoke from the exhaust or a no
start condition caused by a restricted exhaust?
a. If YES >> then the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may require replacement.
Proceed to REPAIR PROCEDURE B: DPF Repair Procedure.
b. If NO >> then proceed to Step # 6.
6. Is DTC P1451 ACTIVE in the PCM (but DTC's P242F and/or P200C are NOT present and there
is no black smoke concern)?
a. If YES >> then a Scan Tool initiated DeSoot is required for the DPF. Proceed to REPAIR
PROCEDURE A: DPF DeSoot.
b. If NO >> then STOP. Additional diagnosis or repair for the DPF is not needed. An inactive DTC
P1451 without other symptoms does not require
any repair. Confirm that the PCM has the latest updates per the relevant TSB's and include the

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
DIESEL OXIDATION CATALYST (DOC)
The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) is a ceramic flow through substrate coated with a catalyst
washcoat that is integral to the DOC assembly. The close coupled DOC treats engine exhaust
gases by converting harmful carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and other compounds into
water, carbon dioxide and heat.
Pick-up vehicles use a separate DOC assembly.
Cab-Chassis vehicles use a combination Diesel Oxidation Catalyst/Diesel Particulate Filter
(DOC/DPF)
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a wall-pass ceramic filter substrate coated with a catalyst
washcoat that is integral to the DOC/DPF assembly. The partially treated exhaust gases from the
DOC, flow into the catalyzed diesel particulate filter (DPF) which traps and accumulates particulate
matter and further treats the exhaust gases to reduce unburned hydrocarbons and other harmful
compounds. the trapped particulate molecules will be periodically removed from the DPF via a
thermal regeneration process initiated by the engine's electronic control module (ECM).

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The oxidation catalyst raises the exhaust gas temperatures to regenerate the DPF, which is
passive regeneration. If the passive regeneration cannot keep up with the build up of soot in the
DPF, the ECM will actively regenerate the DPF to burn off the soot. Residue remains inside the
DPF in the form of non burnable ash. Ash comes from the oils and other materials that are trapped
in the oils and are present in the soot. The catalyst contains a large number of parallel channels,
which run in the axial direction and are separated by thin porous walls. The channels are
alternatively open at one end, but plugged at the other. The exhaust gases flow through the walls
and escape through the pores in the wall material. Particulates, however, are too large to escape
and are trapped in the monolith walls. The ECM starts the regeneration of the DPF if the soot load
exceeds a performance map value. The ECM determines the load condition of the DPF based
upon the exhaust gas pressure upstream and downstream of the DPC/DPF. A pressure differential
sensor provides the pressure input to the ECM. During the regeneration process, the ECM raises
the temperature in the DOC/DPF to burn off the soot accumulated. Under normal operation, the
engine does not produce enough heat to oxidize the soot inside the DOC/DPF. This process
requires temperatures above 550°C (1,022°F). After regeneration, the ECM reads the actual
pressure difference at the DOC/DPF and compares it with a reference value. From this
comparison, the ECM determines the ash quantity inside the DOC/DPF.

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Testing and Inspection
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
EVIC Message Center - Message - Catalyst Full
The engine Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the soot load in the diesel particulate filter.
Under normal operating conditions the diesel particulate filter is self-cleaning, where accumulated
soot is converted to ash. Under light load operating conditions, the driver may be notified via the
vehicle's Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message center "CATALYST FULL: SEE
OWNERS MAN" message will be displayed indicating that it is necessary to modify the vehicles
driving routine/duty-cycle in order to allow the diesel particulate filter system to self clean. If the
vehicle's EVIC message center notification is ignored, the vehicle will eventually derate the engine
and set a fault, requiring service. The soot load in the diesel particulate filter is estimated by the
ECM using the Exhaust Pressure Sensor values and the calculated soot output of the engine. This
fault code will be triggered if the application is not operating at a duty cycle high enough to allow
active regeneration of the diesel particulate filter. This fault code is an indication that the exhaust
temperatures exiting the turbocharger are not high enough to allow active regeneration of the soot
that is trapped in the diesel particulate filter. It may be necessary to increase the duty cycle of the
application in order to prevent excessive soot accumulation and plugging of the diesel particulate
filter. The ECM will set this fault if it detects that the soot level has exceeded the normal desoot
trigger threshold by a sufficient amount to indicate that the driver intervention is required. There is
not a MIL lamp associated with this fault code, though the driver will be notified via the EVIC
message.
Have owner drive vehicle at highway speeds (50/60 mph) for a minimum of 45 minutes.
If the message CATALYST FULL SERVICE REQ'D. is still displayed, Refer to appropriate testing.

Exhaust Manifold - Cleaning
CLEANING
Clean the cylinder head and exhaust manifold sealing surfaces with a suitable scraper. Use a
Scotch-Brite(TM) pad or equivalent.
Exhaust Manifold - Inspection
INSPECTION
Inspect the exhaust manifold for cracks. Measure the exhaust manifold for flatness. Place a ruler
over all of the exhaust ports and insert a feeler gauge between the port flange and the ruler.
Maximum deviation from flat is 0.20 mm (.008 inch).
Inspection of turbocharger mounting flange: Using a straight edge across the longest sections of
the flange, measure the flatness using a feeler gauge. Warpage shall not exceed 0.1mm (0.0039
in). When measuring the exhaust manifold flanges, the total sum of exhaust flange and the

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and
Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Body Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 3634
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and
Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 3772
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Engine Control Module: Description and Operation Powertrain Control Module - Description
Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is located in the right-rear section of the engine
compartment under the cowl.
Two different PCM's are used (JTEC and NGC). These can be easily identified. JTEC's use three
32-way connectors, NGC's use four 38-way connectors
Modes Of Operation
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to
the output devices. For example, the PCM must calculate different injector pulse width and ignition
timing for idle than it does for wide open throttle (WOT).
The PCM will operate in two different modes: Open Loop and Closed Loop.
During Open Loop modes, the PCM receives input signals and responds only according to preset
PCM programming. Input from the oxygen (O2S) sensors is not monitored during Open Loop
modes.
During Closed Loop modes, the PCM will monitor the oxygen (O2S) sensors input. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio. This ratio is 14.7 parts air-to-1 part fuel. By monitoring the exhaust oxygen content through
the O2S sensor, the PCM can fine tune the injector pulse width. This is done to achieve optimum
fuel economy combined with low emission engine performance.
The fuel injection system has the following modes of operation:
- Ignition switch ON
- Engine start-up (crank)
- Engine warm-up
- Idle
- Cruise
- Acceleration
- Deceleration
- Wide open throttle (WOT)
- Ignition switch OFF
The ignition switch On, engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up, acceleration, deceleration and
wide open throttle modes are Open Loop modes. The idle and cruise modes, (with the engine at
operating temperature) are Closed Loop modes.

Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation
> Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 3831
IGNITION SWITCH (KEY-ON) MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. When the fuel system is activated by the ignition switch, the following
actions occur:
- The PCM pre-positions the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from the MAP sensor input to determine basic fuel
strategy.
- The PCM monitors the engine coolant temperature sensor input. The PCM modifies fuel strategy
based on this input.
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor input is monitored.
- Throttle position sensor (TPS) is monitored.
- The auto shutdown (ASD) relay is energized by the PCM for approximately three seconds.
- The fuel pump is energized through the fuel pump relay by the PCM. The fuel pump will operate
for approximately three seconds unless the engine is operating or the starter motor is engaged.
- The O2S sensor heater element is energized via the ASD or O2S heater relay. The O2S sensor
input is not used by the PCM to calibrate air-fuel ratio during this mode of operation.
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The following actions occur when the starter motor is engaged.
The PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
The PCM monitors the crankshaft position sensor. If the PCM does not receive a crankshaft
position sensor signal within 3 seconds of cranking the engine, it will shut down the fuel injection
system.
The fuel pump is activated by the PCM through the fuel pump relay.
Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
The PCM determines the proper ignition timing according to input received from the crankshaft
position sensor.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During engine warm-up, the PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
Based on these inputs the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
- The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor and adjusts ignition
timing.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
- When engine has reached operating temperature, the PCM will begin monitoring O2S sensor
input. The system will then leave the warm-up mode and go into closed loop operation.
IDLE MODE

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and
Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation
> Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 3832
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At idle speed, the PCM
receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Battery voltage
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector
on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio by varying injector pulse width.
It also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by increasing and decreasing spark advance.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
CRUISE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At cruising speed, the
PCM receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen (O2S) sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then adjust
the injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio. It also adjusts engine idle
speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested by the A/C thermostat.
ACCELERATION MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The PCM recognizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or MAP
pressure as a demand for increased engine output and vehicle acceleration. The PCM increases
injector pulse width in response to increased throttle opening.
DECELERATION MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is an Open Loop mode. During hard
deceleration, the PCM receives the following inputs.
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and
Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation
> Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 3833
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Vehicle speed
If the vehicle is under hard deceleration with the proper rpm and closed throttle conditions, the
PCM will ignore the oxygen sensor input signal. The PCM will enter a fuel cut-off strategy in which
it will not supply a ground to the injectors. If a hard deceleration does not exist, the PCM will
determine the proper injector pulse width and continue injection.
Based on the above inputs, the PCM will adjust engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC)
motor.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil on and off.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During wide open throttle operation, the PCM receives the following
inputs.
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
During wide open throttle conditions, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off. The PCM ignores the oxygen sensor input signal and provides a predetermined
amount of additional fuel. This is done by adjusting injector pulse width.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
IGNITION SWITCH OFF MODE
When ignition switch is turned to OFF position, the PCM stops operating the injectors, ignition coil,
ASD relay and fuel pump relay.

Power Grounds
POWER GROUNDS
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has 2 main grounds. Both of these grounds are referred to
as power grounds. All of the high-current, noisy, electrical devices are connected to these grounds
as well as all of the sensor returns. The sensor return comes into the sensor return circuit, passes
through noise suppression, and is then connected to the power ground.
The power ground is used to control ground circuits for the following PCM loads:
- Generator field winding
- Fuel injectors
- Ignition coil(s)
- Certain relays/solenoids
- Certain sensors

Engine Control Module: Description and Operation Powertrain Control Module - Operation
Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The PCM operates the fuel system. The PCM is a pre-programmed, triple microprocessor digital
computer. It regulates ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, emission control devices, charging system,
certain transmission features, speed control, air conditioning compressor clutch engagement and
idle speed. The PCM can adapt its programming to meet changing operating conditions.
The PCM receives input signals from various switches and sensors. Based on these inputs, the
PCM regulates various engine and vehicle operations through different system components. These
components are referred to as Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Outputs. The sensors and
switches that provide inputs to the PCM are considered Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Inputs.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing based upon inputs it receives from sensors that react to: engine
rpm, manifold absolute pressure, engine coolant temperature, throttle position, transmission gear
selection (automatic transmission), vehicle speed, power steering pump pressure, and the brake
switch.
The PCM adjusts idle speed based on inputs it receives from sensors that react to: throttle position,
vehicle speed, transmission gear selection, engine coolant temperature and from inputs it receives
from the air conditioning clutch switch and brake switch.
Based on inputs that it receives, the PCM adjusts ignition coil dwell. The PCM also adjusts the
generator charge rate through control of the generator field and provides speed control operation.
NOTE: PCM Inputs:
- ABS module (if equipped)
- A/C request (if equipped with factory A/C)

Ignition Circuit Sense
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 the "ignition sense" circuit and is used to "wake up"
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 regulator and to allow the PCM to
perform fuel, ignition and emissions control functions.

SKREEM PROGRAMMING
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for a gasoline engine, or an Engine Control Module
(ECM) for a diesel engine and the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the
Wireless Control Module/WCM) on vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS) are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in order:
NOTE: If the PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, program the PCM VIN into the
PCM first.
1. If applicable first replace the PCM/ECM with the original WCM still connected to the vehicle. 2.
Using the appropriate service information program the new PCM/ECM. (This will ensure the Secret
Key Transfer from the original WCM into the
new PCM/ECM).
3. Now replace and program the WCM. This will retain the Secret Key from the PCM/ECM back
into the new WCM. 4. With the scan tool, select Miscellaneous Functions, WCM/Wireless Control
Module. Then select the desired procedure and follow the display on
the scan tool.
5. If the vehicle is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System program the Placard Pressure
Values into the WCM/SKREEM. 6. Ensure all the customer's keys have been programmed into the
new module if necessary.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
PROGRAMMING THE SKREEM
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique to each SKREEM/WCM. This code is
programmed and stored in the SKREEM/WCM, the PCM/ECM, and each ignition key transponder
chip. When the PCM/ECM or SKREEM/WCM is replaced, it is necessary to program the Secret
Key into the new module using a diagnostic scan tool. Follow the programming steps outlined in
the diagnostic scan tool for PCM REPLACED , ECM REPLACED , WCM REPLACED , or
GATEWAY REPLACED under MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL
MODULE/WCM menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: Programming the PCM/ECM or SKREEM is done using a diagnostic scan tool and a PIN to
enter secure access mode. If three attempts are made to enter secure access mode using an
incorrect PIN, secure access mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit this lockout mode, turn
the ignition to the RUN position for one hour then enter the correct PIN. Be certain that all
accessories are turned OFF. Also monitor the battery state and connect a battery charger if
necessary.
NOTE: Before replacing the ECU for a failed driver, control circuit or ground circuit, be sure to
check the related component/circuit integrity for failures not detected due to a double fault in the
circuit. Most ECM driver/control circuit failures are caused by internal component failures (i.e. relay
and solenoids) and shorted circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers and switched circuits). These failures are
difficult to detect when a double fault has occurred and only one DTC has set.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When a ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM 3. Replace all ignition keys and program them
to the new SKIM.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When an ECM (Bosch) and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM (Bosch) 3. Replace all ignition keys and
program them to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING THE SKIM
CAUTION: Read all notes and cautions for programming procedures.
1. Connect a battery charger to the vehicle. 2. Connect the StarSCAN(R).
CAUTION: If the ECM/PCM and SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, the ECM/PCM
MUST be programmed before the

SKREEM/WCM.
3. Select "ECU View". 4. Select "WCM Wireless Control Module". 5. Select "Miscellaneous
Functions". 6. Select WCM replaced. 7. Enter the PIN when prompted. 8. Verify the correct
information.
NOTE: If the ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle keys will need to be
replaced and programmed to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING IGNITION KEYS TO THE SKREEM
Each ignition key transponder also has a unique ID code that is assigned at the time the key is
manufactured. When a key is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM, the transponder ID code is
learned by the module and the transponder acquires the unique Secret Key ID code from the
SKREEM/WCM. To program ignition keys into the SKREEM/WCM, follow the programming steps
outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for PROGRAM IGNITION KEYS OR KEY FOBS under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE/WCM menu item.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
NOTE: A maximum of eight keys can be learned to each SKREEM. Once a key is learned to a
SKREEM, that key has acquired the Secret Key for that SKREEM and cannot be transferred to any
other SKREEM or vehicle.
If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the scan tool will display one of the following error
messages:
- PROGRAMMING NOT ATTEMPTED - The scan tool attempts to read the programmed key status
and there are no keys programmed into SKREEM memory.
- PROGRAMMING KEY FAILED (POSSIBLE USED KEY FROM WRONG VEHICLE) - SKREEM is
unable to program an ignition key transponder due to one of the following:
- The ignition key transponder is ineffective.
- The ignition key transponder is or has been already programmed to another vehicle.
- 8 KEYS ALREADY LEARNED, PROGRAMMING NOT DONE - The SKREEM transponder ID
memory is full.
LEARNED KEY IN IGNITION - The ID for the ignition key transponder currently in the ignition lock
cylinder is already programmed into SKREEM memory.

Main Relay (Computer/Fuel System): Testing and Inspection
Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and
Modules - Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Pump Relay > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 3892
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

DESCRIPTION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is used only on the diesel engine. It is attached to the
battery tray located under the battery.

Battery Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Battery Temperature Sensor - Operation
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temperature and control battery charging rate. This
temperature data, along with data from monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM (ECM Diesel) to
vary the battery charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder temperatures and is
gradually reduced at warmer temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is grounded through the sensor return line. As
temperature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases and the detection voltage at the PCM
increases.
The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Certain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example, disable purge and enable Leak Detection
Pump (LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II monitors are disabled below 20°F.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

OPERATION
The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) (5) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after
the engine is running.
The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine
start-up. Once the engine is running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation Operation - Pick Up Models
OPERATION - PICK UP MODELS
Two different six-wire O2 sensors are used. These sensors are titled 1/1 upstream (1), and 1/2
downstream (2).
A separate O2 Sensor Module (1) is also used.
The engine aftertreatment system monitors the O2 content in the diesel engine exhaust. The ECM
monitors the exhaust gases for oxygen content and varies the rich/lean fuel mixture of the intake air
fuel mixture to adjust the system. This diagnostic monitors the status message broadcast by the O2
Sensor Module (1) for the upstream O2 sensor's internal heater circuit. The ECM will set the fault if
it receives a FMI (Failure Mode Indicator) message from the O2 Sensor Module. The ECM will
illuminate the MIL lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. The ECM will turn off the
MIL lamp diagnostic runs and passes in four consecutive drive cycles.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Sensors and Switches - Powertrain Management > Sensors and
Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 4324
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

EGR Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation-Cab/Chassis Models
OPERATION-CAB/CHASSIS MODELS
The EGR Temperature Sensor (1) is located on the EGR crossover tube (6) near the EGR valve.
The EGR temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor used to measure the
temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler.
The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

OPERATION
The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) (5) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after
the engine is running.
The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine
start-up. Once the engine is running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed.

Fuel Pressure: Testing and Inspection Fuel Pump Return Flow Test
*FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST
1. FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST Using the scan tool, idle the engine and measure the rail
pressure and determine if the rail pressure is excessive (above 185,00 kpa/26,831 psi). If it is,
troubleshoot for excessive rail pressure first. Remove the banjo bolt from the pressure-limiting
valve on the fuel rail. Install fuel system test fitting 9013 into the pressure-limiting valve. Attach one
end of a fuel hose to the fuel fitting and put the other end of the fuel hose into a container Perform
the tests listed below to determine if the pressure-limiting valve is leaking. a. Operate the engine at
idle and watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. b. Operate the engine at idle and actuate the
high pressure safety valve test with the scan tool. Watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. If fuel
flows into the fuel container, replace the pressure-limiting valve. If fuel does not leak from the
pressure-limiting valve, the test is complete.
NOTE: Do not drive the vehicle with any portion of this test kit installed
Operate the engine until the engine is at operating temperature. Remove the banjo connector from
the fuel drain tube at the rear of the fuel filter housing Install fuel system test fitting 9012 in place of
the banjo connector. Install a piece of fuel line onto the test fitting and put the open end into the
graduated cylinder. Start the engine and let it idle for one minute. Measure the amount of fuel in the
graduated cylinder. If the flow is less than 1000ml/minute at idle, the test has successfully passed.
If the flow is greater than 1000ml/minute at idle, replace the fuel injection pump. Retest to confirm

fuel lift pump relay. If the voltage is not greater than 11.5 volts, go to step 9. 9. Disconnect the
wiring harness from the fuel tank module. Remove the lift pump relay from the PDC. Using an
Ohmmeter, measure the resistance of the fuel lift pump power supply wire between the PDC relay
output pin and the fuel tank module connector. If the resistance is less than 10 ohms, go to step 10.
If it is greater than 10 ohms, fix or replace the harness. 10. Disconnect the wiring harness from the
fuel tank module. Remove the fuel lift pump relay from the PDC. Using a voltmeter, measure the
voltage between battery negative and the fuel lift pump power supply wire at the fuel module
connector. If the voltage is less than 1 volt, go to step 11. If the voltage is greater than 1 volt, fix or
replace the harness. 11. Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel tank module. Remove the fuel
lift pump relay from the PDC. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between battery
negative and the fuel lift pump power supply wire at the fuel module connector. If the resistance is
less than 10 ohms, fix or replace the harness. If the resistance is greater than 10 ohms, go to step
12. 12. Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel tank module. Using an Ohmmeter, measure the
resistance of the fuel lift pump ground wire between the fuel tank module connector and battery
negative. If the resistance is less than 10 ohms, go to step 13. If the resistance is greater than 10
ohms, fix or replace the harness. 13. Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel tank module.
Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage between the fuel lift pump ground wire and battery
negative. If the voltage is less than 1 volt, go to step 14. If the voltage is greater than 1 volt, fix or
replace the harness. 14. Reconnect the lift pump connector. FLOW TEST. 1. Remove the fuel
pump supply banjo fitting from the fuel injection pump. 2. Install fuel system test fitting 9863 onto
the end of the quick connect line going to the fuel injection pump. 3. Connect one end of a section
of fuel hose to the test fitting. 4. Put the other end of the fuel hose into an empty fuel container. 5.
Use the scan tool to actuate the fuel lift pump. 6. While the lift pump is running, move the fuel hose
from the fuel canister into a 1000ml graduated cylinder for 10 seconds. 7. Read and record the
amount of fuel in the graduated cylinder after 10 seconds. 8. If you have more than 570ml in the
graduated cylinder after 10 seconds, the test has successfully passed. 9. If you have less than
570ml of fuel in the graduated cylinder, inspect the fuel supply line from the fuel tank to the fuel
filter housing and the fuel supply line between the fuel filter housing and the high pressure fuel
pump for signs of damage, replace as necessary. If no damage is found, replace the fuel filter and
retest. 10.Verify the Screened Banjo Bolt at the outlet of the fuel filter is free of debris. If debris is
found, rinse screen with water, blow dry and reinstall. Retest vehicle. If flow meets specification
then trace back the source of debris, if flow is still below spec repair damaged component. 11. If

VALVE LASH ADJUSTMENT AND VERIFICATION
NOTE: To obtain accurate readings, valve lash measurements AND adjustments should only be
performed when the engine coolant temperature is less than 60° C (140° F).
The 24-valve overhead system is a "low-maintenance" design. Routine adjustments are no longer
necessary, however, measurement should still take place when troubleshooting performance
problems, or upon completion of a repair that includes removal and installation of the valve train
components or injectors.
1. Disconnect battery negative cables. 2. Remove cylinder head cover See: Engine, Cooling and
Exhaust/Engine/Cylinder Head Assembly/Valve Cover/Service and Repair/Removal and
Replacement/Cylinder Head Cover - Removal .
3. Using the crankshaft barring tool #7471-B, rotate crankshaft to align damper TDC mark to 12:00
o'clock position.
a. If both number one cylinder rocker levers are loose, continue to next step. b. If both number one
cylinder rocker levers are not loose, rotate crankshaft 360 degrees.
4. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be measured at the following rocker arms:
INTAKE 1-2-4 / EXHAUST 1-3-5. Measure the valve
lash by inserting a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and crosshead. Refer to VALVE
LASH LIMIT CHART for the correct specifications. If the measurement falls within the limits,
adjustment/resettingis not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resettingis required.
5. If adjustment/resetting is required, loosen the lock nut on rocker arms and turn the adjusting
screw until the desired lash is obtained:
- INTAKE 0.254 mm (0.010 in.)
- EXHAUST 0.660 mm (0.026 in.)
Tighten the lock nut to 24 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) and recheck the valve lash.
6. Using the crankshaft barring tool, rotate the crankshaft one revolution (360°) to align the damper
TDC mark to the 12 o'clock position.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

DESCRIPTION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is used only on the diesel engine. It is attached to the
battery tray located under the battery.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Battery Temperature Sensor >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Battery Temperature Sensor - Description > Page 4585
Battery Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Battery Temperature Sensor - Operation
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temperature and control battery charging rate. This
temperature data, along with data from monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM (ECM Diesel) to
vary the battery charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder temperatures and is
gradually reduced at warmer temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is grounded through the sensor return line. As
temperature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases and the detection voltage at the PCM
increases.
The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Certain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example, disable purge and enable Leak Detection
Pump (LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II monitors are disabled below 20°F.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR CONTINUITY
1. Remove the fuse (1) for the circuit being checked or, disconnect the battery. 2. Connect one lead
of the ohmmeter to one side of the circuit being tested 3. Connect the other lead to the other end of
the circuit being tested. Low or no resistance means good continuity.
Testing For A Short To Ground
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Remove the fuse and disconnect all items involved with the fuse. 2. Connect a test light or a
voltmeter across the terminals of the fuse. 3. Starting at the fuse block, wiggle the wiring harness
about six to eight inches apart and watch the voltmeter/test lamp. 4. If the voltmeter registers
voltage or the test lamp glows, there is a short to ground in that general area of the wiring harness.
Testing For A Short To Ground On Fuses Powering Several Loads
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND ON FUSES POWERING
SEVERAL LOADS
1. Refer to the wiring diagrams and disconnect or isolate all items on the suspected fused circuits.
2. Replace the blown fuse. 3. Supply power to the fuse by turning ON the ignition switch or

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Body Control Module >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4608
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

Crankshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) (5) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after
the engine is running.
The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine
start-up. Once the engine is running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Data Link Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4713
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

the instrument cluster overlay.
The ETC indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol
icon for Electronic Throttle Control in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the
indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated
from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The ETC indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Electronic Throttle Control Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
ETC system, or a circuit or component of the system is ineffective. The ETC indicator is controlled
by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and
electronic messages received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The ETC indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn ON the ETC indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the ETC indicator is
illuminated for about six seconds. The entire bulb test is a function of the PCM.
- ETC Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic ETC indicator
lamp-ON message from the PCM, the ETC indicator will be illuminated. The indicator can be
flashed ON and OFF, or illuminated solid, as dictated by the PCM message. The indicator remains
illuminated solid or continues to flash for about 12 seconds or until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF
message from the PCM, whichever is longer. If the indicator is illuminated solid with the engine
running the vehicle will usually remain drivable. If the indicator is flashing with the engine running
the vehicle may require towing. A flashing indicator means the ETC system requires immediate
service. The indicator will be extinguished when the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the PCM
for three consecutive seconds, the ETC indicator is illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated
until the cluster receives a single lamp-OFF message from the PCM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the ETC indicator will be
turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of
the LED and the cluster control circuitry. The actuator test illumination of the ETC indicator is a
function of the PCM.
The PCM continually monitors the ETC system circuits and sensors to decide whether the system
is in good operating condition. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). If the PCM sends a lamp-ON message after the bulb test, it indicates that the PCM
has detected an ETC system malfunction or that the ETC system is ineffective. The PCM will store
a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any malfunction it detects. Each time the ETC indicator fails
to illuminate due to an open or short in the cluster ETC indicator circuit, the cluster sends a
message notifying the PCM of the condition, then the EMIC and the PCM will each store a DTC.
For proper diagnosis of the ETC system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic
communication related to ETC indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Connector, Ground and Splice Information
DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS
Vehicle/Locations contains the master connector/ground/splice location index charts with
hyperlinks to the applicable location illustrations. The illustrations contain the connector name (or
number)/ground number/splice number and component identification.
The abbreviation T/O is used in the component location section to indicate a point in which the
wiring harness branches out to a component. The abbreviation N/S means Not Shown in the
illustrations

Engine Control Module: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4862
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Engine Control Module: Description and Operation Powertrain Control Module - Description
Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is located in the right-rear section of the engine
compartment under the cowl.
Two different PCM's are used (JTEC and NGC). These can be easily identified. JTEC's use three
32-way connectors, NGC's use four 38-way connectors
Modes Of Operation
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to
the output devices. For example, the PCM must calculate different injector pulse width and ignition
timing for idle than it does for wide open throttle (WOT).
The PCM will operate in two different modes: Open Loop and Closed Loop.
During Open Loop modes, the PCM receives input signals and responds only according to preset
PCM programming. Input from the oxygen (O2S) sensors is not monitored during Open Loop
modes.
During Closed Loop modes, the PCM will monitor the oxygen (O2S) sensors input. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio. This ratio is 14.7 parts air-to-1 part fuel. By monitoring the exhaust oxygen content through
the O2S sensor, the PCM can fine tune the injector pulse width. This is done to achieve optimum
fuel economy combined with low emission engine performance.
The fuel injection system has the following modes of operation:
- Ignition switch ON
- Engine start-up (crank)
- Engine warm-up
- Idle
- Cruise
- Acceleration
- Deceleration
- Wide open throttle (WOT)
- Ignition switch OFF
The ignition switch On, engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up, acceleration, deceleration and
wide open throttle modes are Open Loop modes. The idle and cruise modes, (with the engine at
operating temperature) are Closed Loop modes.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 4921
IGNITION SWITCH (KEY-ON) MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. When the fuel system is activated by the ignition switch, the following
actions occur:
- The PCM pre-positions the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from the MAP sensor input to determine basic fuel
strategy.
- The PCM monitors the engine coolant temperature sensor input. The PCM modifies fuel strategy
based on this input.
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor input is monitored.
- Throttle position sensor (TPS) is monitored.
- The auto shutdown (ASD) relay is energized by the PCM for approximately three seconds.
- The fuel pump is energized through the fuel pump relay by the PCM. The fuel pump will operate
for approximately three seconds unless the engine is operating or the starter motor is engaged.
- The O2S sensor heater element is energized via the ASD or O2S heater relay. The O2S sensor
input is not used by the PCM to calibrate air-fuel ratio during this mode of operation.
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The following actions occur when the starter motor is engaged.
The PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
The PCM monitors the crankshaft position sensor. If the PCM does not receive a crankshaft
position sensor signal within 3 seconds of cranking the engine, it will shut down the fuel injection
system.
The fuel pump is activated by the PCM through the fuel pump relay.
Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
The PCM determines the proper ignition timing according to input received from the crankshaft
position sensor.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During engine warm-up, the PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
Based on these inputs the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
- The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor and adjusts ignition
timing.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
- When engine has reached operating temperature, the PCM will begin monitoring O2S sensor
input. The system will then leave the warm-up mode and go into closed loop operation.
IDLE MODE
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 4922
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At idle speed, the PCM
receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Battery voltage
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector
on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio by varying injector pulse width.
It also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by increasing and decreasing spark advance.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
CRUISE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At cruising speed, the
PCM receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen (O2S) sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then adjust
the injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio. It also adjusts engine idle
speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested by the A/C thermostat.
ACCELERATION MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The PCM recognizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or MAP
pressure as a demand for increased engine output and vehicle acceleration. The PCM increases
injector pulse width in response to increased throttle opening.
DECELERATION MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is an Open Loop mode. During hard
deceleration, the PCM receives the following inputs.
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 4923
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Vehicle speed
If the vehicle is under hard deceleration with the proper rpm and closed throttle conditions, the
PCM will ignore the oxygen sensor input signal. The PCM will enter a fuel cut-off strategy in which
it will not supply a ground to the injectors. If a hard deceleration does not exist, the PCM will
determine the proper injector pulse width and continue injection.
Based on the above inputs, the PCM will adjust engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC)
motor.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil on and off.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During wide open throttle operation, the PCM receives the following
inputs.
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
During wide open throttle conditions, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off. The PCM ignores the oxygen sensor input signal and provides a predetermined
amount of additional fuel. This is done by adjusting injector pulse width.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
IGNITION SWITCH OFF MODE
When ignition switch is turned to OFF position, the PCM stops operating the injectors, ignition coil,
ASD relay and fuel pump relay.
5 Volt Supplies
5 VOLT SUPPLIES
Two different Powertrain Control Module (PCM) five volt supply circuits are used; primary and
secondary.

IGNITION CIRCUIT SENSE
This circuit ties the ignition switch to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
Power Grounds
POWER GROUNDS
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has 2 main grounds. Both of these grounds are referred to
as power grounds. All of the high-current, noisy, electrical devices are connected to these grounds
as well as all of the sensor returns. The sensor return comes into the sensor return circuit, passes
through noise suppression, and is then connected to the power ground.
The power ground is used to control ground circuits for the following PCM loads:
- Generator field winding
- Fuel injectors
- Ignition coil(s)

Ignition Circuit Sense
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 the "ignition sense" circuit and is used to "wake up"
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 regulator and to allow the PCM to
perform fuel, ignition and emissions control functions.

Engine Control Module: Testing and Inspection SKREEM Programming
SKREEM PROGRAMMING
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for a gasoline engine, or an Engine Control Module
(ECM) for a diesel engine and the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the
Wireless Control Module/WCM) on vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS) are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in order:
NOTE: If the PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, program the PCM VIN into the
PCM first.
1. If applicable first replace the PCM/ECM with the original WCM still connected to the vehicle. 2.
Using the appropriate service information program the new PCM/ECM. (This will ensure the Secret
Key Transfer from the original WCM into the
new PCM/ECM).
3. Now replace and program the WCM. This will retain the Secret Key from the PCM/ECM back
into the new WCM. 4. With the scan tool, select Miscellaneous Functions, WCM/Wireless Control
Module. Then select the desired procedure and follow the display on
the scan tool.
5. If the vehicle is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System program the Placard Pressure
Values into the WCM/SKREEM. 6. Ensure all the customer's keys have been programmed into the
new module if necessary.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
PROGRAMMING THE SKREEM
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique to each SKREEM/WCM. This code is
programmed and stored in the SKREEM/WCM, the PCM/ECM, and each ignition key transponder
chip. When the PCM/ECM or SKREEM/WCM is replaced, it is necessary to program the Secret
Key into the new module using a diagnostic scan tool. Follow the programming steps outlined in
the diagnostic scan tool for PCM REPLACED , ECM REPLACED , WCM REPLACED , or
GATEWAY REPLACED under MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL
MODULE/WCM menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: Programming the PCM/ECM or SKREEM is done using a diagnostic scan tool and a PIN to
enter secure access mode. If three attempts are made to enter secure access mode using an
incorrect PIN, secure access mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit this lockout mode, turn
the ignition to the RUN position for one hour then enter the correct PIN. Be certain that all
accessories are turned OFF. Also monitor the battery state and connect a battery charger if
necessary.
NOTE: Before replacing the ECU for a failed driver, control circuit or ground circuit, be sure to
check the related component/circuit integrity for failures not detected due to a double fault in the
circuit. Most ECM driver/control circuit failures are caused by internal component failures (i.e. relay
and solenoids) and shorted circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers and switched circuits). These failures are
difficult to detect when a double fault has occurred and only one DTC has set.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When a ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM 3. Replace all ignition keys and program them
to the new SKIM.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When an ECM (Bosch) and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM (Bosch) 3. Replace all ignition keys and
program them to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING THE SKIM
CAUTION: Read all notes and cautions for programming procedures.
1. Connect a battery charger to the vehicle. 2. Connect the StarSCAN(R).
CAUTION: If the ECM/PCM and SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, the ECM/PCM
MUST be programmed before the

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Engine Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 4937
SKREEM/WCM.
3. Select "ECU View". 4. Select "WCM Wireless Control Module". 5. Select "Miscellaneous
Functions". 6. Select WCM replaced. 7. Enter the PIN when prompted. 8. Verify the correct
information.
NOTE: If the ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle keys will need to be
replaced and programmed to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING IGNITION KEYS TO THE SKREEM
Each ignition key transponder also has a unique ID code that is assigned at the time the key is
manufactured. When a key is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM, the transponder ID code is
learned by the module and the transponder acquires the unique Secret Key ID code from the
SKREEM/WCM. To program ignition keys into the SKREEM/WCM, follow the programming steps
outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for PROGRAM IGNITION KEYS OR KEY FOBS under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE/WCM menu item.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
NOTE: A maximum of eight keys can be learned to each SKREEM. Once a key is learned to a
SKREEM, that key has acquired the Secret Key for that SKREEM and cannot be transferred to any
other SKREEM or vehicle.
If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the scan tool will display one of the following error
messages:
- PROGRAMMING NOT ATTEMPTED - The scan tool attempts to read the programmed key status
and there are no keys programmed into SKREEM memory.
- PROGRAMMING KEY FAILED (POSSIBLE USED KEY FROM WRONG VEHICLE) - SKREEM is
unable to program an ignition key transponder due to one of the following:
- The ignition key transponder is ineffective.
- The ignition key transponder is or has been already programmed to another vehicle.
- 8 KEYS ALREADY LEARNED, PROGRAMMING NOT DONE - The SKREEM transponder ID
memory is full.
LEARNED KEY IN IGNITION - The ID for the ignition key transponder currently in the ignition lock
cylinder is already programmed into SKREEM memory.

REMOVAL
CAUTION: Certain ABS systems rely on having the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) broadcast
the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) over the bus network. To prevent problems of DTCs and
other items related to the VIN broadcast, it is recommend that you disconnect the ABS CAB
(controller) temporarily when replacing the PCM. Once the PCM is replaced, write the VIN to the
PCM using a scan tool. This is done from the engine main menu. Arrow over to the second page to
"1. Miscellaneous". Select "Check VIN" from the choices. Make sure it has the correct VIN entered
before continuing. When the VIN is complete, turn off the ignition key and reconnect the ABS
module connector. This will prevent the setting of DTCs and other items associated with the lack of
a VIN detected when you turn the key ON after replacing the PCM.
CAUTION: Use the scan tool to reprogram the new PCM with the vehicles original identification
number (VIN) and the vehicles original mileage. If this step is not done, a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) may be set.
The PCM (1) is located in the engine compartment attached to the dash panel (3).
To avoid possible voltage spike damage to the PCM, ignition key must be off, and negative battery
cable must be disconnected before unplugging PCM connectors.
1. Disconnect negative battery cable at battery. 2. Remove cover over electrical connectors. Cover
snaps onto PCM. 3. Carefully unplug the three 32-way connectors (four 38-way connectors if
equipped with NGC) from PCM (1). 4. Remove three PCM mounting bolts (4) and remove PCM
from vehicle.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.

All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component
Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4993
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. This indicator
is located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster, between the tachometer and the
speedometer.
The MIL consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for
Engine in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay
prevents 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 indicator to appear in
amber through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the
LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The MIL is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 5011
Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on vehicles with a gasoline engine, or the Engine Control
Module (ECM) on vehicles with a diesel engine has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for
an On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) emissions-related circuit or component malfunction. The MIL is
controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming
and electronic messages received by the cluster from the PCM or ECM over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) data bus.
The MIL Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates
when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn ON the MIL for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the indicator is illuminated
for about two seconds as a bulb test. The entire bulb test is a function of the PCM or ECM.
- MIL Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic MIL lamp-ON message
from the PCM or ECM, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator can be flashed ON and OFF,
or illuminated solid, as dictated by the PCM or ECM message. For some DTCs, if a problem does
not recur, the PCM or ECM will send a lamp-OFF message automatically. Other DTCs may require
that a fault be repaired and the PCM or ECM be reset before a lamp-OFF message will be sent.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the PCM
or ECM for about 10 seconds, the MIL is illuminated by the instrument cluster to indicate a loss of
bus communication. The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid
message is received from the PCM or ECM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the MIL indicator will be
turned ON during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the
cluster control circuitry.
The PCM or ECM continually monitors the fuel and emissions system circuits and sensors to
decide whether the system is in good operating condition. The PCM or ECM then sends the proper
lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known
as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If the EMIC turns ON the MIL after the bulb test, it may
indicate that a malfunction has occurred and that the fuel and emissions systems may require
service.
For proper diagnosis of the fuel and emissions systems, the PCM, the ECM, the EMIC, the CAN
data bus or the electronic communication related to MIL operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required.

Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation Operation - Pick Up Models
OPERATION - PICK UP MODELS
Two different six-wire O2 sensors are used. These sensors are titled 1/1 upstream (1), and 1/2
downstream (2).
A separate O2 Sensor Module (1) is also used.
The engine aftertreatment system monitors the O2 content in the diesel engine exhaust. The ECM
monitors the exhaust gases for oxygen content and varies the rich/lean fuel mixture of the intake air
fuel mixture to adjust the system. This diagnostic monitors the status message broadcast by the O2
Sensor Module (1) for the upstream O2 sensor's internal heater circuit. The ECM will set the fault if
it receives a FMI (Failure Mode Indicator) message from the O2 Sensor Module. The ECM will
illuminate the MIL lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. The ECM will turn off the
MIL lamp diagnostic runs and passes in four consecutive drive cycles.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Body Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 5204
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Connector, Ground and Splice Information
DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS
Vehicle/Locations contains the master connector/ground/splice location index charts with
hyperlinks to the applicable location illustrations. The illustrations contain the connector name (or
number)/ground number/splice number and component identification.
The abbreviation T/O is used in the component location section to indicate a point in which the
wiring harness branches out to a component. The abbreviation N/S means Not Shown in the
illustrations
Section Identification and Information
DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual sections. If a component is most likely found in a
particular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,

connectors, and pins) within that group. For example, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Powertrain Management, so it is shown there complete. It can, however, be shown
partially in another group if it contains some associated wiring.
Splice diagrams show the entire splice and provide references to other sections the splices serves.
Splice Information only contains splice diagrams that are not shown in their entirety somewhere
else in the wiring diagrams.
Connector Pin-Outs shows each connector and the circuits involved with that connector. The
connectors are identified using the name/number on the diagram pages.

any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.
Testing For Continuity

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 5340
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR CONTINUITY
1. Remove the fuse (1) for the circuit being checked or, disconnect the battery. 2. Connect one lead
of the ohmmeter to one side of the circuit being tested 3. Connect the other lead to the other end of
the circuit being tested. Low or no resistance means good continuity.
Testing For A Short To Ground
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Remove the fuse and disconnect all items involved with the fuse. 2. Connect a test light or a
voltmeter across the terminals of the fuse. 3. Starting at the fuse block, wiggle the wiring harness
about six to eight inches apart and watch the voltmeter/test lamp. 4. If the voltmeter registers
voltage or the test lamp glows, there is a short to ground in that general area of the wiring harness.
Testing For A Short To Ground On Fuses Powering Several Loads
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND ON FUSES POWERING
SEVERAL LOADS
1. Refer to the wiring diagrams and disconnect or isolate all items on the suspected fused circuits.
2. Replace the blown fuse. 3. Supply power to the fuse by turning ON the ignition switch or
re-connecting the battery. 4. Start connecting or energizing the items in the fuse circuit one at a
time. When the fuse blows the circuit with the short to ground has been isolated.
Testing For A Voltage Drop

and Instructions > Page 5341
1. Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to the side of the circuit closest to the battery. 2.
Connect the other lead of the voltmeter to the other side of the switch, component or circuit. 3.
Operate the item. 4. The voltmeter will show the difference in voltage between the two points.
Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 5342
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Engine Control Module: Description and Operation Powertrain Control Module - Description
Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is located in the right-rear section of the engine
compartment under the cowl.
Two different PCM's are used (JTEC and NGC). These can be easily identified. JTEC's use three
32-way connectors, NGC's use four 38-way connectors
Modes Of Operation
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) change, the PCM adjusts its response to
the output devices. For example, the PCM must calculate different injector pulse width and ignition
timing for idle than it does for wide open throttle (WOT).
The PCM will operate in two different modes: Open Loop and Closed Loop.
During Open Loop modes, the PCM receives input signals and responds only according to preset
PCM programming. Input from the oxygen (O2S) sensors is not monitored during Open Loop
modes.
During Closed Loop modes, the PCM will monitor the oxygen (O2S) sensors input. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio. This ratio is 14.7 parts air-to-1 part fuel. By monitoring the exhaust oxygen content through
the O2S sensor, the PCM can fine tune the injector pulse width. This is done to achieve optimum
fuel economy combined with low emission engine performance.
The fuel injection system has the following modes of operation:
- Ignition switch ON
- Engine start-up (crank)
- Engine warm-up
- Idle
- Cruise
- Acceleration
- Deceleration
- Wide open throttle (WOT)
- Ignition switch OFF
The ignition switch On, engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up, acceleration, deceleration and
wide open throttle modes are Open Loop modes. The idle and cruise modes, (with the engine at
operating temperature) are Closed Loop modes.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 5401
IGNITION SWITCH (KEY-ON) MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. When the fuel system is activated by the ignition switch, the following
actions occur:
- The PCM pre-positions the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from the MAP sensor input to determine basic fuel
strategy.
- The PCM monitors the engine coolant temperature sensor input. The PCM modifies fuel strategy
based on this input.
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor input is monitored.
- Throttle position sensor (TPS) is monitored.
- The auto shutdown (ASD) relay is energized by the PCM for approximately three seconds.
- The fuel pump is energized through the fuel pump relay by the PCM. The fuel pump will operate
for approximately three seconds unless the engine is operating or the starter motor is engaged.
- The O2S sensor heater element is energized via the ASD or O2S heater relay. The O2S sensor
input is not used by the PCM to calibrate air-fuel ratio during this mode of operation.
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The following actions occur when the starter motor is engaged.
The PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
The PCM monitors the crankshaft position sensor. If the PCM does not receive a crankshaft
position sensor signal within 3 seconds of cranking the engine, it will shut down the fuel injection
system.
The fuel pump is activated by the PCM through the fuel pump relay.
Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
The PCM determines the proper ignition timing according to input received from the crankshaft
position sensor.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During engine warm-up, the PCM receives inputs from:
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
Based on these inputs the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off.
- The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor and adjusts ignition
timing.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
- When engine has reached operating temperature, the PCM will begin monitoring O2S sensor
input. The system will then leave the warm-up mode and go into closed loop operation.
IDLE MODE
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 5402
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At idle speed, the PCM
receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor

injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector
on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio by varying injector pulse width.
It also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by increasing and decreasing spark advance.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the A/C compressor clutch relay. This is
done if A/C has been selected by the vehicle operator and specified pressures are met at the high
and low-pressure A/C switches.
CRUISE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is a Closed Loop mode. At cruising speed, the
PCM receives inputs from:
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Oxygen (O2S) sensors
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then adjust
the injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual injector on and off.
- The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and adjusts air-fuel ratio. It also adjusts engine idle
speed through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
- The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested by the A/C thermostat.
ACCELERATION MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The PCM recognizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or MAP
pressure as a demand for increased engine output and vehicle acceleration. The PCM increases
injector pulse width in response to increased throttle opening.
DECELERATION MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this is an Open Loop mode. During hard
deceleration, the PCM receives the following inputs.
- Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
- Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
- Battery voltage
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 5403
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
- Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signal-auto. trans. only)
- Vehicle speed
If the vehicle is under hard deceleration with the proper rpm and closed throttle conditions, the
PCM will ignore the oxygen sensor input signal. The PCM will enter a fuel cut-off strategy in which
it will not supply a ground to the injectors. If a hard deceleration does not exist, the PCM will
determine the proper injector pulse width and continue injection.
Based on the above inputs, the PCM will adjust engine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC)
motor.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil on and off.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During wide open throttle operation, the PCM receives the following
inputs.
- Battery voltage
- Crankshaft position sensor
- Engine coolant temperature sensor
- Intake manifold air temperature sensor
- Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Camshaft position sensor signal
During wide open throttle conditions, the following occurs:
- Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the ASD relay via the PCM. The PCM will then control
the injection sequence and injector pulse width by turning the ground circuit to each individual
injector on and off. The PCM ignores the oxygen sensor input signal and provides a predetermined
amount of additional fuel. This is done by adjusting injector pulse width.
- The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the ground path to the coil(s) on and off.
IGNITION SWITCH OFF MODE
When ignition switch is turned to OFF position, the PCM stops operating the injectors, ignition coil,
ASD relay and fuel pump relay.

Engine Control Module: Testing and Inspection SKREEM Programming
SKREEM PROGRAMMING
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for a gasoline engine, or an Engine Control Module
(ECM) for a diesel engine and the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the
Wireless Control Module/WCM) on vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS) are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in order:
NOTE: If the PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, program the PCM VIN into the
PCM first.
1. If applicable first replace the PCM/ECM with the original WCM still connected to the vehicle. 2.
Using the appropriate service information program the new PCM/ECM. (This will ensure the Secret
Key Transfer from the original WCM into the
new PCM/ECM).
3. Now replace and program the WCM. This will retain the Secret Key from the PCM/ECM back
into the new WCM. 4. With the scan tool, select Miscellaneous Functions, WCM/Wireless Control
Module. Then select the desired procedure and follow the display on
the scan tool.
5. If the vehicle is equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System program the Placard Pressure
Values into the WCM/SKREEM. 6. Ensure all the customer's keys have been programmed into the
new module if necessary.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
PROGRAMMING THE SKREEM
The SKIS Secret Key is an ID code that is unique to each SKREEM/WCM. This code is
programmed and stored in the SKREEM/WCM, the PCM/ECM, and each ignition key transponder
chip. When the PCM/ECM or SKREEM/WCM is replaced, it is necessary to program the Secret
Key into the new module using a diagnostic scan tool. Follow the programming steps outlined in
the diagnostic scan tool for PCM REPLACED , ECM REPLACED , WCM REPLACED , or
GATEWAY REPLACED under MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL
MODULE/WCM menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: Programming the PCM/ECM or SKREEM is done using a diagnostic scan tool and a PIN to
enter secure access mode. If three attempts are made to enter secure access mode using an
incorrect PIN, secure access mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit this lockout mode, turn
the ignition to the RUN position for one hour then enter the correct PIN. Be certain that all
accessories are turned OFF. Also monitor the battery state and connect a battery charger if
necessary.
NOTE: Before replacing the ECU for a failed driver, control circuit or ground circuit, be sure to
check the related component/circuit integrity for failures not detected due to a double fault in the
circuit. Most ECM driver/control circuit failures are caused by internal component failures (i.e. relay
and solenoids) and shorted circuits (i.e. pull-ups, drivers and switched circuits). These failures are
difficult to detect when a double fault has occurred and only one DTC has set.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When a ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM 3. Replace all ignition keys and program them
to the new SKIM.
ECM/SKIM/WCM PROGRAMMING
When an ECM (Bosch) and the SKIM are replaced at the same time perform the following steps in
order:
1. Program the new SKIM 2. Program the new ECM (Bosch) 3. Replace all ignition keys and
program them to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING THE SKIM
CAUTION: Read all notes and cautions for programming procedures.
1. Connect a battery charger to the vehicle. 2. Connect the StarSCAN(R).
CAUTION: If the ECM/PCM and SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, the ECM/PCM
MUST be programmed before the

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Engine
Control Module (ECM) - Diesel > Page 5417
SKREEM/WCM.
3. Select "ECU View". 4. Select "WCM Wireless Control Module". 5. Select "Miscellaneous
Functions". 6. Select WCM replaced. 7. Enter the PIN when prompted. 8. Verify the correct
information.
NOTE: If the ECM and the SKIM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle keys will need to be
replaced and programmed to the new SKIM.
PROGRAMMING IGNITION KEYS TO THE SKREEM
Each ignition key transponder also has a unique ID code that is assigned at the time the key is
manufactured. When a key is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM, the transponder ID code is
learned by the module and the transponder acquires the unique Secret Key ID code from the
SKREEM/WCM. To program ignition keys into the SKREEM/WCM, follow the programming steps
outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for PROGRAM IGNITION KEYS OR KEY FOBS under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE/WCM menu item.
NOTE: If the original keys do not successfully program to the new SKREEM after the proper
procedures are followed correctly, programming new keys will be necessary.
NOTE: A maximum of eight keys can be learned to each SKREEM. Once a key is learned to a
SKREEM, that key has acquired the Secret Key for that SKREEM and cannot be transferred to any
other SKREEM or vehicle.
If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the scan tool will display one of the following error
messages:
- PROGRAMMING NOT ATTEMPTED - The scan tool attempts to read the programmed key status
and there are no keys programmed into SKREEM memory.
- PROGRAMMING KEY FAILED (POSSIBLE USED KEY FROM WRONG VEHICLE) - SKREEM is
unable to program an ignition key transponder due to one of the following:
- The ignition key transponder is ineffective.
- The ignition key transponder is or has been already programmed to another vehicle.
- 8 KEYS ALREADY LEARNED, PROGRAMMING NOT DONE - The SKREEM transponder ID
memory is full.
LEARNED KEY IN IGNITION - The ID for the ignition key transponder currently in the ignition lock
cylinder is already programmed into SKREEM memory.

Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

Battery Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Battery Temperature Sensor - Operation
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temperature and control battery charging rate. This
temperature data, along with data from monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM (ECM Diesel) to
vary the battery charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder temperatures and is
gradually reduced at warmer temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is grounded through the sensor return line. As
temperature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases and the detection voltage at the PCM
increases.
The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Certain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example, disable purge and enable Leak Detection
Pump (LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II monitors are disabled below 20°F.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

A separate O2 Sensor Module (1) is also used.
The engine aftertreatment system monitors the O2 content in the diesel engine exhaust. The ECM
monitors the exhaust gases for oxygen content and varies the rich/lean fuel mixture of the intake air
fuel mixture to adjust the system. This diagnostic monitors the status message broadcast by the O2
Sensor Module (1) for the upstream O2 sensor's internal heater circuit. The ECM will set the fault if
it receives a FMI (Failure Mode Indicator) message from the O2 Sensor Module. The ECM will
illuminate the MIL lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. The ECM will turn off the
MIL lamp diagnostic runs and passes in four consecutive drive cycles.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 5816
As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Sensors and Switches Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 5845
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Connector, Ground and Splice Information
DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.
Testing For Continuity

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5903
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR CONTINUITY
1. Remove the fuse (1) for the circuit being checked or, disconnect the battery. 2. Connect one lead
of the ohmmeter to one side of the circuit being tested 3. Connect the other lead to the other end of
the circuit being tested. Low or no resistance means good continuity.
Testing For A Short To Ground
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Remove the fuse and disconnect all items involved with the fuse. 2. Connect a test light or a
voltmeter across the terminals of the fuse. 3. Starting at the fuse block, wiggle the wiring harness
about six to eight inches apart and watch the voltmeter/test lamp. 4. If the voltmeter registers
voltage or the test lamp glows, there is a short to ground in that general area of the wiring harness.
Testing For A Short To Ground On Fuses Powering Several Loads
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING FOR A SHORT TO GROUND ON FUSES POWERING
SEVERAL LOADS
1. Refer to the wiring diagrams and disconnect or isolate all items on the suspected fused circuits.
2. Replace the blown fuse. 3. Supply power to the fuse by turning ON the ignition switch or
re-connecting the battery. 4. Start connecting or energizing the items in the fuse circuit one at a
time. When the fuse blows the circuit with the short to ground has been isolated.
Testing For A Voltage Drop

1. Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to the side of the circuit closest to the battery. 2.
Connect the other lead of the voltmeter to the other side of the switch, component or circuit. 3.
Operate the item. 4. The voltmeter will show the difference in voltage between the two points.
Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5905
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Diesel Exhaust Temperature Sensors are thermistors and change resistance based on the
temperature being measured. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5 volt reference
voltage to the sensor. The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a
temperature value.

Exhaust Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When the exhaust gas temperature is cold, the sensor resistance is high, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) will sense the resistance and sense the exhaust temperature as cold. When the
exhaust gas temperature is high, the sensor resistance is low, the ECM will sense the resistance
and sense the exhaust temperature as high.

THIS BULLETIN SUPERSEDES TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 11-002-07, DATED
SEPTEMBER 25, 2007, WHICH SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM YOUR FILES. THIS IS A
COMPLETE REVISION AND NO ASTERISKS HAVE BEEN USED TO HIGHLIGHT REVISIONS.
THE wiTECH DIAGNOSTIC APPLICATION IS THE PREFERRED TOOL FOR THIS
PROCEDURE.
THE wiTECH SOFTWARE LEVEL MUST BE AT RELEASE 9.05 OR HIGHER TO PERFORM
THIS PROCEDURE.
StarMOBILE DESKTOP CLIENT, StarMOBILE STANDALONE MODE OR StarSCAN MAY ALSO
BE USED TO PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE.
SUBJECT: Diesel Particulate Filter - Diagnosis and Repair of DTC's P1451, P200C, P242F or
Black Smoke From Exhaust
OVERVIEW: This bulletin provides revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC's P1451,
P2OOC, P242F, black smoke from the exhaust, or a no start condition due to a nonfunctional or
plugged Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The Mobile DeSoot procedure initiated by the service tool
will soon be replaced with a new Stationary DeSoot procedure. The stationary DeSoot procedure
will only work when a vehicle needs to have a DeSoot performed, such as is indicated by the
presence of an active P1451. A Service Bulletin will be released when this procedure becomes
available.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination, warning chime and
an overhead Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message regarding the aftertreatment
system and/or black smoke from the exhaust and/or a no start condition.
Further Investigation by the technician may reveal that the MIL illumination and/or EVIC message
is due to one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's):
^ P1451 - Diesel Particulate Filter - System Performance.
^ P242F - Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction - Ash Accumulation.
^ P200C - Diesel Particulate Filter Over Temperature - Bank 1.
NOTE:
While the wiTECH tool is the preferred method of testing, StarMOBILE desktop client, StarMOBILE
standalone mode OR StarSCAN may also be used to perform this procedure.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC).
2. Turn the ignition key to the RUN position, DO NOT start the engine.
3. From the "Vehicle View" screen on the Scan Tool select:
a. "All DTCs" tab.
4. Record all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) that are present in the PCM.

It is IMPORTANT to record (capture) all DTC's present in the PCM prior to proceeding further with
this diagnosis.
5. Are DTC's P242F and/or P200C present, either active or stored, in the PCM, or does the vehicle
have visible black smoke from the exhaust or a no
start condition caused by a restricted exhaust?
a. If YES >> then the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may require replacement.
Proceed to REPAIR PROCEDURE B: DPF Repair Procedure.
b. If NO >> then proceed to Step # 6.
6. Is DTC P1451 ACTIVE in the PCM (but DTC's P242F and/or P200C are NOT present and there
is no black smoke concern)?
a. If YES >> then a Scan Tool initiated DeSoot is required for the DPF. Proceed to REPAIR
PROCEDURE A: DPF DeSoot.
b. If NO >> then STOP. Additional diagnosis or repair for the DPF is not needed. An inactive DTC
P1451 without other symptoms does not require
any repair. Confirm that the PCM has the latest updates per the relevant TSB's and include the
documentation kit p/n 6804917AA (while supplies last) in the vehicle, and resolve any other
concerns prior to returning the vehicle to the owner.

SUBJECT: Diesel Particulate Filter - Diagnosis and Repair of DTC's P1451, P200C, P242F or
Black Smoke From Exhaust
OVERVIEW: This bulletin provides revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC's P1451,
P2OOC, P242F, black smoke from the exhaust, or a no start condition due to a nonfunctional or
plugged Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The Mobile DeSoot procedure initiated by the service tool
will soon be replaced with a new Stationary DeSoot procedure. The stationary DeSoot procedure
will only work when a vehicle needs to have a DeSoot performed, such as is indicated by the
presence of an active P1451. A Service Bulletin will be released when this procedure becomes
available.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination, warning chime and
an overhead Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message regarding the aftertreatment
system and/or black smoke from the exhaust and/or a no start condition.
Further Investigation by the technician may reveal that the MIL illumination and/or EVIC message
is due to one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's):
^ P1451 - Diesel Particulate Filter - System Performance.
^ P242F - Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction - Ash Accumulation.
^ P200C - Diesel Particulate Filter Over Temperature - Bank 1.
NOTE:
While the wiTECH tool is the preferred method of testing, StarMOBILE desktop client, StarMOBILE
standalone mode OR StarSCAN may also be used to perform this procedure.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC).
2. Turn the ignition key to the RUN position, DO NOT start the engine.
3. From the "Vehicle View" screen on the Scan Tool select:
a. "All DTCs" tab.
4. Record all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) that are present in the PCM.

It is IMPORTANT to record (capture) all DTC's present in the PCM prior to proceeding further with
this diagnosis.
5. Are DTC's P242F and/or P200C present, either active or stored, in the PCM, or does the vehicle
have visible black smoke from the exhaust or a no
start condition caused by a restricted exhaust?
a. If YES >> then the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may require replacement.
Proceed to REPAIR PROCEDURE B: DPF Repair Procedure.
b. If NO >> then proceed to Step # 6.
6. Is DTC P1451 ACTIVE in the PCM (but DTC's P242F and/or P200C are NOT present and there
is no black smoke concern)?
a. If YES >> then a Scan Tool initiated DeSoot is required for the DPF. Proceed to REPAIR
PROCEDURE A: DPF DeSoot.
b. If NO >> then STOP. Additional diagnosis or repair for the DPF is not needed. An inactive DTC
P1451 without other symptoms does not require
any repair. Confirm that the PCM has the latest updates per the relevant TSB's and include the
documentation kit p/n 6804917AA (while supplies last) in the vehicle, and resolve any other
concerns prior to returning the vehicle to the owner.

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
DIESEL OXIDATION CATALYST (DOC)
The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) is a ceramic flow through substrate coated with a catalyst
washcoat that is integral to the DOC assembly. The close coupled DOC treats engine exhaust
gases by converting harmful carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and other compounds into
water, carbon dioxide and heat.
Pick-up vehicles use a separate DOC assembly.
Cab-Chassis vehicles use a combination Diesel Oxidation Catalyst/Diesel Particulate Filter
(DOC/DPF)
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a wall-pass ceramic filter substrate coated with a catalyst
washcoat that is integral to the DOC/DPF assembly. The partially treated exhaust gases from the
DOC, flow into the catalyzed diesel particulate filter (DPF) which traps and accumulates particulate
matter and further treats the exhaust gases to reduce unburned hydrocarbons and other harmful
compounds. the trapped particulate molecules will be periodically removed from the DPF via a
thermal regeneration process initiated by the engine's electronic control module (ECM).

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The oxidation catalyst raises the exhaust gas temperatures to regenerate the DPF, which is
passive regeneration. If the passive regeneration cannot keep up with the build up of soot in the
DPF, the ECM will actively regenerate the DPF to burn off the soot. Residue remains inside the
DPF in the form of non burnable ash. Ash comes from the oils and other materials that are trapped
in the oils and are present in the soot. The catalyst contains a large number of parallel channels,
which run in the axial direction and are separated by thin porous walls. The channels are
alternatively open at one end, but plugged at the other. The exhaust gases flow through the walls
and escape through the pores in the wall material. Particulates, however, are too large to escape
and are trapped in the monolith walls. The ECM starts the regeneration of the DPF if the soot load
exceeds a performance map value. The ECM determines the load condition of the DPF based
upon the exhaust gas pressure upstream and downstream of the DPC/DPF. A pressure differential
sensor provides the pressure input to the ECM. During the regeneration process, the ECM raises
the temperature in the DOC/DPF to burn off the soot accumulated. Under normal operation, the
engine does not produce enough heat to oxidize the soot inside the DOC/DPF. This process
requires temperatures above 550°C (1,022°F). After regeneration, the ECM reads the actual
pressure difference at the DOC/DPF and compares it with a reference value. From this
comparison, the ECM determines the ash quantity inside the DOC/DPF.

Diesel Particle Filter (DPF): Testing and Inspection
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
EVIC Message Center - Message - Catalyst Full
The engine Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the soot load in the diesel particulate filter.
Under normal operating conditions the diesel particulate filter is self-cleaning, where accumulated
soot is converted to ash. Under light load operating conditions, the driver may be notified via the
vehicle's Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message center "CATALYST FULL: SEE
OWNERS MAN" message will be displayed indicating that it is necessary to modify the vehicles
driving routine/duty-cycle in order to allow the diesel particulate filter system to self clean. If the
vehicle's EVIC message center notification is ignored, the vehicle will eventually derate the engine
and set a fault, requiring service. The soot load in the diesel particulate filter is estimated by the
ECM using the Exhaust Pressure Sensor values and the calculated soot output of the engine. This
fault code will be triggered if the application is not operating at a duty cycle high enough to allow
active regeneration of the diesel particulate filter. This fault code is an indication that the exhaust
temperatures exiting the turbocharger are not high enough to allow active regeneration of the soot
that is trapped in the diesel particulate filter. It may be necessary to increase the duty cycle of the
application in order to prevent excessive soot accumulation and plugging of the diesel particulate
filter. The ECM will set this fault if it detects that the soot level has exceeded the normal desoot
trigger threshold by a sufficient amount to indicate that the driver intervention is required. There is
not a MIL lamp associated with this fault code, though the driver will be notified via the EVIC
message.
Have owner drive vehicle at highway speeds (50/60 mph) for a minimum of 45 minutes.
If the message CATALYST FULL SERVICE REQ'D. is still displayed, Refer to appropriate testing.

Refueling Vapor Recovery System: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The ORVR (On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system consists of a unique fuel tank, flow
management valve, fluid control valve, one-way check valve and vapor canister.

Refueling Vapor Recovery System: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The ORVR (On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system is used to remove excess fuel tank
vapors. This is done while the vehicle is being refueled.
Fuel flowing into the fuel filler tube (approx. 1" I.D.) creates an aspiration effect drawing air into the
fuel fill tube. During refueling, the fuel tank is vented to the EVAP canister to capture escaping
vapors. With air flowing into the filler tube, there are no fuel vapors escaping to the atmosphere.
Once the refueling vapors are captured by the EVAP canister, the vehicle's computer controlled
purge system draws vapor out of the canister for the engine to burn. The vapor flow is metered by
the purge solenoid so that there is no, or minimal impact on driveability or tailpipe emissions.
As fuel starts to flow through the fuel fill tube, it opens the normally closed check valve and enters
the fuel tank. Vapor or air is expelled from the tank through the control valve and on to the vapor
canister. Vapor is absorbed in the EVAP canister until vapor flow in the lines stops. This stoppage
occurs following fuel shut-off, or by having the fuel level in the tank rise high enough to close the
control valve. This control valve contains a float that rises to seal the large diameter vent path to
the EVAP canister. At this point in the refueling process, fuel tank pressure increases, the check
valve closes (preventing liquid fuel from spiting back at the operator), and fuel then rises up the fuel
filler tube to shut off the dispensing nozzle.

EGR Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation-Cab/Chassis Models
OPERATION-CAB/CHASSIS MODELS
The EGR Temperature Sensor (1) is located on the EGR crossover tube (6) near the EGR valve.
The EGR temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor used to measure the
temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler.
The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

Crankcase Filter: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The Closed Crankcase Ventilation System (CCV) consists of several parts to make it functional.
One part is the filter. The filter is serviceable and prevents oil mist from entering the discharge tube
of the CCV system. It is not cleaned, but replaced at 60,000 mile intervals.
The crankcase breather assembly is integrated into the cylinder head cover (3) and is serviced
separately. The external fittings (2) to the breather tube and breather drain tube are serviceable.
The crankcase breather assembly is integrated into the cylinder head cover and corresponding
breather cover. Crankcase gasses travel into the breather cavity under the breather cover where
they pass through a filtering media (serviceable maintenance component) which separates the oil
from the crankcase gasses. The oil drains back into the engine block through two hoses (2) on the
left side of the engine.
The crankcase gasses are directed through the Crankcase Depression Regulator (CDR) valve
which allows the system to maintain a constant positive pressure in the crankcase. The CDR valve
is a non-serviceable component located on the underside of the breather cover. Clean crankcase
gasses flow from the CDR valve into the fresh air side of the turbocharger compressor.
The closed crankcase ventilation valve is used to vent the crankcase gases back into the intake of
engine. If the crankcase ventilation filter becomes too restrictive, under high intake vacuum
situations, the closed crankcase ventilation prevents the engine from syphoning crankcase
gases/oil from the crankcase of the engine. The closed crankcase ventilation valve is located under
the crankcase ventilation filter cover at the top of the engine.
TESTING
1. If troubleshooting high crankcase pressure, the following items can be causing the closed
crankcase ventilation valve to close during engine
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Positive Crankcase Ventilation >
Crankcase Filter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 6117
operation: High air intake restriction. Check for high intake restriction
- A restricted crankcase ventilation filter. Change the filter
- A malfunctioning or misassembled closed crankcase ventilation valve. Check the valve operation
and change if necessary
2. The closed crankcase ventilation valve should allow crankcases gases to flow when the engine
is not running and/or removed from the engine.
NOTE: Application of air can be applied either to the inlet or outlet of the closed crankcase
ventilation valve.
3. A small amount of air can be blown through the closed crankcase ventilation valve (less than 34
kPa [5 psi]) to check the closed crankcase
ventilation valve.
4. If air does not go through the closed crankcase ventilation valve, replace the valve.

Crankcase Filter: Procedures
FILTER ELEMENT INSPECTION
1. Inspect the crankcase breather assembly by ensuring the oil drain hoses are not kinked or
cracked. 2. Inspect all external hose connections for signs of leakage, repair where necessary.
Inspect the breather for cracks or damage. 3. Inspect the filter element sealing surface for gouges
or cracks; this surface should be smooth and free of abrasions.
FILTER ELEMENT INSTALLATION
1. Clean the filter sealing surface on the cylinder head cover with a clean shop towel. 2. Install the
new filter element, lubrication of the new sealing surface is not recommended. 3. Press the new
filter into the cylinder head cover cavity until fully seated. 4. Install the breather cover assembly.
BREATHER COVER INSTALLATION
1. Inspect the filter element for proper installation. The filter should be completely seated around
the circumference of the sealing surface. 2. Install the breather cover to the cylinder head cover. 3.
Install the capscrews surrounding the breather cover. 4. Install the breather drain hoses onto the
hose barbs. Do not damage or hose connection during installation. 5. Install engine shields or
covers if equipped.

OPERATION
To comply with engine emissions regulations, a CCV (Closed Crankcase Ventilation) system has
been developed for the 6.7L Cummins diesel. The CCV system reroutes crankcase ventilation
(blow-by) gases from the breather assembly back into the engine intake airflow to be used for
combustion. The crankcase ventilation system uses a coalescing filter (2) which captures and filters
crankcase blow-by gases and then returns oil directly to the sump. The CCV system contains the
following components:
- Valve Cover Assembly (7)
- Breather Filter (2)
- Breather Filter Cover (1)
- Crankcase Pressure Sensor (3)
- Crankcase Differential Regulator (CDR) Valve; a part of the breather filter cover (1)
The valve cover assembly (7) is made of a composite material. The cover has a recessed area for
the breather filter and passages for oil draining from the breather filter, back to the crankcase. The
drain tubes have one-way check valves (4), (5) and (6) that prevent oil from being forced up the
tubes by excessive crankcase pressure.
The Crankcase Pressure (CP) Sensor (5) is mounted on the valve cover (4). The CP sensor
monitors crankcase pressure that builds up as the result of combustion gas blow-by. The Engine
Control Module (ECM) uses data from the CP sensor to determine the condition of the crankcase
breather (ventilation) filter. The ECM can also determine if a crankcase breather (ventilation) filter is
present.

EGR Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation Operation-Cab/Chassis Models
OPERATION-CAB/CHASSIS MODELS
The EGR Temperature Sensor (1) is located on the EGR crossover tube (6) near the EGR valve.
The EGR temperature sensor is a negative temperature coefficient thermistor used to measure the
temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler.
The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

temperature of the EGR gas flow after it exits the EGR cooler.
The ECM (Engine Control Module) supplies 5-volts to the EGR temperature signal circuit. To
determine the temperature of the EGR gas flow, the ECM monitors the change in voltage caused
by changes in the resistance of the sensor. The ECM uses the exhaust gas recirculation
temperature value for the engine protection system, and also for engine emissions control.

Fuel Pressure: Testing and Inspection Fuel Pump Return Flow Test
*FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST
1. FUEL PUMP RETURN FLOW TEST Using the scan tool, idle the engine and measure the rail
pressure and determine if the rail pressure is excessive (above 185,00 kpa/26,831 psi). If it is,
troubleshoot for excessive rail pressure first. Remove the banjo bolt from the pressure-limiting
valve on the fuel rail. Install fuel system test fitting 9013 into the pressure-limiting valve. Attach one
end of a fuel hose to the fuel fitting and put the other end of the fuel hose into a container Perform
the tests listed below to determine if the pressure-limiting valve is leaking. a. Operate the engine at
idle and watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. b. Operate the engine at idle and actuate the
high pressure safety valve test with the scan tool. Watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. If fuel
flows into the fuel container, replace the pressure-limiting valve. If fuel does not leak from the
pressure-limiting valve, the test is complete.
NOTE: Do not drive the vehicle with any portion of this test kit installed
Operate the engine until the engine is at operating temperature. Remove the banjo connector from
the fuel drain tube at the rear of the fuel filter housing Install fuel system test fitting 9012 in place of
the banjo connector. Install a piece of fuel line onto the test fitting and put the open end into the
graduated cylinder. Start the engine and let it idle for one minute. Measure the amount of fuel in the
graduated cylinder. If the flow is less than 1000ml/minute at idle, the test has successfully passed.
If the flow is greater than 1000ml/minute at idle, replace the fuel injection pump. Retest to confirm

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

Fuel Inlet Metering Valve: Description and Operation Fuel Control Actuator
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) (3) is located at the rear of the high-pressure, fuel injection pump.
Operation
OPERATION
The Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) is an electronically controlled solenoid valve. The ECM controls
the amount of fuel that enters the high-pressure pumping chambers by opening and closing the
FCA based on a demanded fuel pressure. When the FCA is opened, the maximum amount of fuel
is being supplied to the fuel injection pump. Any fuel that does not enter the injection pump is
directed to the cascade overflow valve. The cascade overflow valve regulates how much excess
fuel is used for lubrication of the pump and how much is returned to the fuel tank through the drain
manifold.
An audible click from the FCA is normal when operating the key from the ON to the OFF position.

Fuel: Description and Operation
FUEL REQUIREMENTS - DIESEL ENGINE
WARNING: Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel blending agent. They can be unstable under
certain conditions and hazardous or explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable supplier. It is recommended that purchase of diesel
fuel should be made from a service station that is known to dispense a high volume of highway
diesel fuel. - Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (15 ppm of sulfur or less) is required to be used
in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with 6.7L diesel engine Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel
(preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) are required to be used in
Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine.
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel, or less, is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975.
A biodiesel fuel blend that is higher then 5% is not acceptable because these higher percentage
biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of NUMBER: W14-12-6 GROUP
Fuel DATE: Approval Pending moisture which exceed the water stripping capability of the
on-engine final fuel filter. Should higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an auxilliary water
stripping filter will be required.
No off-highway diesel fuel i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel is acceptable due to unknown sulfur
and water content and unknown cetane number. Unknown fuel quality may adversely effect the
performance of the engine and fuel injection system.
Fuel conditioners (additives) are not recommended and should not be required if you buy good
quality fuel and follow cold weather advice supplied in your Owners Manual.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of water. To prevent fuel system trouble, including fuel line
freezing in winter, drain the accumulated water from the fuel/water separator using the fuel/water
separator drain provided. If you buy good-quality fuel and follow the cold-weather advice above,
fuel conditioners should not be required in your vehicle. If available in your area, a high cetane
"premium" diesel fuel may offer improved cold starting and warm-up performance.
Proper Bulk (Off-Vehicle) Fuel Storage
Proper maintenance of stored fuel is essential. Diesel fuel is seldom entirely free of moisture. Fuel
contaminated with moisture may develop a bacteria or "slime" that may restrict or block fuel filters
and lines.
As diesel fuel is lighter than water, drain condensation no less than monthly from the diesel fuel
supply/storage tanks.
Change the storage tank in-line filter regularly. This filter acts as a last filter prior to the diesel fuel
entering the vehicle diesel fuel tank. Good quality diesel fuel is mandatory. If the storage tank does
not have an in-line filter, then a in-line filter should be added.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering
Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
Primary filtering of the diesel fuel is performed by the original (OEM) vehicle fuel tank pickup filter.
The original (OEM) vehicle fuel tank module (fuel pickup) filter performs a primary filtering of the
on-vehicle diesel fuel as the fuel leaves the fuel tank and enters the fuel lines.
On-vehicle auxiliary diesel fuel tanks are often added by the vehicle owner to extend vehicle driving
range. Auxiliary fuel tank systems must protect the quality of the diesel fuel just as well as the
originally equipped (OEM) fuel tank that came with the vehicle when it was new.
On-vehicle auxiliary diesel fuel storage tanks must have a primary fuel filter to prevent
contamination and moisture accumulation.
The prevention of moisture in the fuel system, the prevention of fuel stagnation, and the use of a
primary fuel filter should all be considered in the purchase, installation, and maintenance of any
auxiliary on-vehicle diesel fuel tank.
Proper On-vehicle Final Fuel Filtering
The large fuel filter that is mounted on the engine is the final fuel filter, water separator, fuel heater,
and water drain. This filter is the final "line of defense" when maintaining a high level of fuel quality.
If the diesel fuel is contaminated or contains moisture, the engine mounted fuel filter system is the
last chance to affect possible correction.
The quality of the fuel, its prior fuel storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contaminates and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel > Component Information >
Description and Operation > Page 6251
It is important to drain moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not wait until the
"Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance. Drain accumulated water
frequently.
Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance schedule
per your Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high moisture
fuel is encountered.
On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, then
verify that the water sensor in the final filter has been cleaned. Excessive moisture may
contaminate the sensor sensing probes. The 6.7L engine includes a new water in fuel sensor with
the new final fuel filter element.
The final fuel / water separator filter must meet or exceed OEM specifications. Some aftermarket
filters may not meet OEM specifications.
The final fuel / water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table below.
Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications in the table above are
approved for use on Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L diesel engines.
The use of non-approved fuel filters will result in engine performance deterioration, and/or possible
progressive damage to the engine from foreign particle ingestion, and/or fuel system component
corrosion.
NOTE: DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE OF FUEL FILTERS NOT APPROVED BY
DAIMLERCHRYSLER MAY NOT BE COVERED BY THE NEW ENGINE WARRANTY.
It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris ingestions and water contamination.
The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Filler Cap > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 6256
Fuel Filler Cap: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The loss of any fuel or vapor out of fuel filler tube is prevented by the use of a pressure-vacuum
fuel fill cap. Relief valves inside the cap will release fuel tank pressure at predetermined pressures.
Fuel tank vacuum will also be released at predetermined values. This cap must be replaced by a
similar unit if replacement is necessary. This is in order for the system to remain effective.
CAUTION: Remove fill cap before servicing any fuel system component to relieve tank pressure. If
equipped with an ORVR system and an ESIM switch, the cap must be tightened securely. If cap is
left loose, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may be set.

Fuel Filler Cap Warning Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A gas cap indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
equipped with the optional diesel engine, this indicator is electronically disabled. The gas cap
indication appears within the odometer Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. The gas cap
indicator consists of a textual gASCAP message which appears in place of the odometer/trip
odometer information in the display.
The odometer VFD is soldered onto the cluster electronic circuit board, and is visible through a
window with a smoked clear lens located on the lower edge of the speedometer gauge dial face of
the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD prevents it from being clearly visible when it is not
illuminated. The gas cap textual message appears in the same blue-green color and at the same
lighting level as the odometer/trip odometer information when it is illuminated by the instrument
cluster electronic circuit board.
The gas cap indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD in the instrument cluster.

Fuel Filler Cap Warning Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The gas cap indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when there is a gross leak
detected in the on-board fuel vapor recovery system. This indicator is controlled by the instrument
cluster logic circuit based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The gas cap indicator function of the odometer Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit is
completely controlled by the instrument 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 VFD gas cap indication will always be OFF
when the ignition switch is in any position except ON or START. The instrument cluster will turn ON
the gas cap indicator for the following reasons:
- Gas Cap Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic gas cap
indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating there is a gross leak in the vapor recovery
system, the gas cap indicator will be illuminated. If the ignition switch is in the ON position and the
vehicle is not moving when the message is received, the VFD will repeatedly and sequentially cycle
the gas cap indication in two second intervals with the odometer/trip odometer information and any
other active textual warnings. If the vehicle is moving, or once the cluster of a non-moving vehicle
receives an electronic vehicle speed message from the PCM indicating a speed greater than zero,
the warning sequence will consist of three complete display cycles with an audible single chime
tone accompanying each cycle, then revert to only the visual gas cap indication and odometer/trip
odometer display cycling until the cluster receives a message indicating there is no gross leak in
the vapor recovery system, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever
occurs first. The VFD can be reverted to the odometer display and any currently displayed textual
messages suspended by momentarily depressing and releasing the odometer/trip odometer reset
switch button on the front of the cluster.
The PCM continually monitors the on board vapor recovery system to determine whether there are
air leaks in the system. The PCM then sends the proper electronic messages to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If
the EMIC turns ON the gas cap indicator due to a monitored gross leak in the vapor recovery
system, it may indicate that the gas cap has been removed or is improperly installed.
For proper diagnosis of the on board vapor recovery system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data
bus or the electronic communication related to gas cap indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Fuel Heater: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The fuel heater is used to prevent diesel fuel from waxing during cold weather operation.
When the fuel temperature is below 45° ±8 F (7°C), the temperature sensor allows current to flow
to the heater element warming the fuel. When the fuel temperature is above 75° ±8 F (24°C), the
sensor stops current flow to the heater element.
Battery voltage to operate the fuel heater element is supplied from the ignition switch and through a
solid stated device in the TIPM. The fuel heater element and "solid state device in TIPM" are not
computer controlled. The heater element operates on 12 volts, 300 watts at 0° F (-18° C).

Fuel Heater: Testing and Inspection
FUEL HEATER
The fuel heater is used to prevent diesel fuel from waxing during cold weather operation.
NOTE: The fuel heater element, "solid state device in TIPM" is not controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM).
A malfunctioning fuel heater can cause a wax build-up in the fuel filter/water separator. Wax
build-up in the filter/separator can cause engine starting problems and prevent the engine from
revving up. It can also cause blue or white fog-like exhaust. If the heater is not operating in cold
temperatures, the engine may not operate due to fuel waxing.
The fuel heater assembly is located on the side of fuel filter housing and internal to the fuel filter
housing.
The heater assembly is equipped with a built-in fuel temperature sensor (thermostat) that senses
fuel temperature. When fuel temperature drops below 45 ° ± 8° F (7° C), the sensor allows current
to flow to built-in heater element to warm fuel. When fuel temperature rises above 75 °± 8° F (24°
C), the sensor stops current flow to heater element (circuit is open).
Voltage to operate fuel heater element is supplied from ignition switch, through "solid state device
in TIPM", to fuel temperature sensor and on to fuel heater element.
The heater element operates on 12 volts, 300 watts at 0 °F (-18° C). As temperature increases,
power requirements decrease.
A minimum of 7 volts is required to operate the fuel heater. The resistance value of the heater
element is less than 1 ohm (cold) and up to 1000 ohms warm.
TESTING
1. Disconnect electrical connector (1) from heater element.
Ambient temperature must be below the circuit close temperature. If necessary, induce this
ambient temperature by placing ice packs on thermostat to produce an effective ambient
temperature below circuit close temperature.
Measure resistance across two pins. Operating range is 0.3 - 0.45 Ohms.
2. If resistance is out of range, replace heater element.

REMOVAL
Refer to maintenance schedules, for recommended fuel filter replacement intervals.
Draining water from fuel filter canister:
The housing drain valve (3) serves two purposes. One is to partially drain the filter housing of
excess water. The other is to partially drain the housing for fuel filter or heater element
replacement.
The filter housing (1) should be partially drained whenever the water-in-fuel warning lamp remains
illuminated. (Note that lamp will be illuminated for approximately two seconds when ignition key is
initially placed in ON position for a bulb check).
1. A drain hose (4) is located at the bottom of drain valve. Place drain pan under drain hose. 2.
With engine not running, rotate drain valve (3) approximately two revolutions to open it. Leave open
until all water and contaminants have been
removed and clean fuel exits. Hand tighten drain valve after tightening.
3. If fuel heater element is being replaced, drain housing completely. Dispose of mixture in drain
pan according to applicable regulations. 4. After draining operation, close and tighten drain valve
(3). 5. Fuel Filter Replacement:
a. Remove left front tire/wheel. b. Remove left front wheel splash shield. c. Clean all debris from
around filter canister (1) and canister head. d. Disconnect WIF sensor electrical connector (5). e.

Fuel Injector: Description and Operation Fuel Injector - Description
DESCRIPTION
Six individual, solenoid actuated high-pressure fuel injectors are used (6). The injectors are
vertically mounted into a bored hole in the top of the cylinder head. This bored hole is located
between the intake/exhaust valves.
High-pressure connectors (13), mounted into the side of the cylinder head, connect each fuel
injector to each high-pressure fuel line (1). FUEL INJECTOR ID CORRECTION CODES:

Information > Description and Operation > Fuel Injector - Description > Page 6431
Each fuel injector has a six-digit alphanumeric correction code. The correction code is printed on
the intake side of the fuel injector (1) and is used to identify injector calibration. When replacing any
fuel injectors, this code must be entered into the vehicles Engine Control Module (ECM) using a
diagnostic scan tool. In addition, if a new ECM is installed, use a diagnostic scan tool to program all
six of the injector codes from the original fuel injectors into the new ECM.
The valve cover and valve cover gasket will need to be removed in order to manually record the
values from the original injectors. Contact cleaner or brake cleaner may be used to clean the fuel
injector.

Fuel Injector: Description and Operation Fuel Injector - Operation
OPERATION
High-pressure fuel is supplied from the injection pump, through a high-pressure fuel line, into a fuel
rail, through high-pressure lines, through steel connectors and into the solenoid actuated fuel
injector. The ECM actuates the solenoid causing the needle valve to rise and fuel flows through the
spray holes in the nozzle tip into the combustion chamber.
Each fuel injector is connected to the fuel rail by a high-pressure fuel line and a steel connector.
This steel connector is positioned into the cylinder head and sealed with an O-ring. The connector
is retained in the cylinder head by a nut (fitting) that is threaded into the cylinder head.
The torquing force of this threaded nut (fitting) provides a sealing pressure between the fuel line
connector and the fuel injector. Retaining nut torque is very critical. If the nut (fitting) is under
torqued, the mating surfaces will not seal and a high-pressure fuel leak will result. If the fitting is
over torqued, the connector and injector will deform and also cause a high-pressure fuel leak. This
leak will be inside the cylinder head and will not be visible. The result will be a possible fuel injector
miss-fire and low power, or a no-start condition.
The fuel injectors use hole type nozzles. High-pressure flows into the side of the injector, the ECM
activates the solenoid causing the injector needle to lift and fuel to be injected. The clearances in
the nozzle bore are extremely small and any dirt or contaminants will cause the injector to stick.
Because of this, it is very important to do a thorough cleaning of any lines before opening up any
fuel system component. Always cover or cap any open fuel connections before a fuel system repair
is performed.
Each fuel injector connector tube contains an edge filter that is designed to break up small
contaminants before entering the fuel injector. The edge filters are not a substitute for proper
cleaning and covering of all fuel system components during repair.
The bottom of each fuel injector is sealed to the cylinder head with a 1.5mm thick copper shim
(gasket). The correct thickness shim must always be re-installed after removing an injector.
Fuel pressure in the injector circuit decreases after injection. The injector needle valve is
immediately closed and fuel flow into the combustion chamber is stopped. Exhaust gases are
prevented from entering the injector nozzle by the needle valve.

pressure and determine if the rail pressure is excessive (above 185,00 kpa/26,831 psi). If it is,
troubleshoot for excessive rail pressure first. Remove the banjo bolt from the pressure-limiting
valve on the fuel rail. Install fuel system test fitting 9013 into the pressure-limiting valve. Attach one
end of a fuel hose to the fuel fitting and put the other end of the fuel hose into a container Perform
the tests listed below to determine if the pressure-limiting valve is leaking. a. Operate the engine at
idle and watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. b. Operate the engine at idle and actuate the
high pressure safety valve test with the scan tool. Watch for fuel flow into the fuel container. If fuel
flows into the fuel container, replace the pressure-limiting valve. If fuel does not leak from the
pressure-limiting valve, the test is complete.
NOTE: Do not drive the vehicle with any portion of this test kit installed
Operate the engine until the engine is at operating temperature. Remove the banjo connector from
the fuel drain tube at the rear of the fuel filter housing Install fuel system test fitting 9012 in place of
the banjo connector. Install a piece of fuel line onto the test fitting and put the open end into the
graduated cylinder. Start the engine and let it idle for one minute. Measure the amount of fuel in the
graduated cylinder. If the flow is less than 1000ml/minute at idle, the test has successfully passed.
If the flow is greater than 1000ml/minute at idle, replace the fuel injection pump. Retest to confirm
repair. View Repair

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Pump > Fuel Pump Relay >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6492
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fuel Supply Line: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Low-Pressure Lines Are:
- the fuel supply line from fuel tank to fuel filter housing.
- the fuel return line back to fuel tank.
- the fuel drain (manifold) line at rear of cylinder head.
- the fuel supply line from fuel filter to fuel injection pump.
- the fuel injection pump return line.
High-Pressure Lines Are:
- the fuel line from fuel injection pump to fuel rail.
- the six fuel lines from fuel rail up to injector connector tubes
WARNING: High-pressure fuel lines deliver diesel fuel under extreme pressure from the injection
pump to the fuel injectors. This may be as high as 180,000 kpa (26,107 psi). Use extreme caution
when inspecting for high-pressure fuel leaks. Inspect for high-pressure fuel leaks with a sheet of
cardboard. High fuel injection pressure can cause personal injury if contact is made with the skin.

OPERATION
High-Pressure Lines
CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be held securely in the brace. The lines cannot
contact each other or other components. Do not attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. If lines are ever kinked or bent, they must be replaced. Use only the
recommended lines when replacement of high-pressure fuel line is necessary.
High-pressure fuel lines deliver fuel (under pressure) of up to approximately 180,000 kPa (26,107
PSI) from the injection pump to the fuel injectors. The lines expand and contract from the
high-pressure fuel pulses generated during the injection process. All high-pressure fuel lines are of
the same length and inside diameter. Correct high-pressure fuel line usage and installation is
critical to smooth engine operation.
WARNING: Use extreme caution when inspecting for high-pressure fuel leaks. Inspect for
high-pressure fuel leaks with a sheet of cardboard. High fuel injection pressure can cause personal
injury if contact is made with the skin.

Fuel Supply Line: Testing and Inspection
HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINE LEAKS
High-pressure fuel line leaks can cause starting problems and poor engine performance.
WARNING: Due to extreme fuel pressures of up to 180,000 kpa (26,107 psi), use extreme caution
when inspecting for high-pressure fuel leaks. Do not get your hand or a finger near a suspected
leak. Inspect for high-pressure fuel leaks with a sheet of cardboard (2) (typical picture). High fuel
injection pressure can cause personal injury if contact is made with the skin.
Start the engine. Move the cardboard (2) over the suspected high-pressure fuel line leak, and
check for fuel spray onto the cardboard. If line is leaking, retorque line while engine is shutdown.
Replace damaged, restricted or leaking high-pressure fuel lines with the correct replacement line.
CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be clamped securely in place in the brace. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do not attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or
to repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recommended lines when replacement of
high-pressure fuel line is necessary.
NOISE ISOLATORS
Noise isolators (14) are used on the six high-pressure fuel lines. They should be positioned in the
middle of the horizontal or longest straight section of each fuel line. The split on each isolator
should be facing downward. Be sure the noise isolator is not touching another isolator or any other
components.

Main Relay (Computer/Fuel System): Testing and Inspection
Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Pump Relay > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions
> Page 6584
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fig.1 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 1
Fig.2 ASD And Fuel Pump Relay Terminals-Type 2
The following description of operation and tests apply only to the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and
fuel pump relays. The terminals on the bottom of each relay are numbered. Two different types of
relays may be used, or.
- Terminal number 30 is connected to battery voltage. For both the ASD and fuel pump relays,
terminal 30 is connected to battery voltage at all times.
- The PCM grounds the coil side of the relay through terminal number 85.
- Terminal number 86 supplies voltage to the coil side of the relay.
- When the PCM de-energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal number 87A connects to
terminal 30. This is the OFF position. In the OFF position, voltage is not supplied to the rest of the
circuit. Terminal 87A is the center terminal on the relay.
- When the PCM energizes the ASD and fuel pump relays, terminal 87 connects to terminal 30.
This is the ON position. Terminal 87 supplies voltage to the rest of the circuit.
The following procedure applies to the ASD and fuel pump relays.
1. Remove relay from connector before testing. 2. With the relay removed from the vehicle, use an
ohmmeter to check the resistance between terminals 85 and 86. The resistance should be 75
ohms

± 5 ohms.
3. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 30 and 87A. The ohmmeter should show continuity
between terminals 30 and 87A. 4. Connect the ohmmeter between terminals 87 and 30. The
ohmmeter should not show continuity at this time. 5. Connect one end of a jumper wire (16 gauge
or smaller) to relay terminal 85. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the ground side of a 12
volt power source.
6. Connect one end of another jumper wire (16 gauge or smaller) to the power side of the 12 volt
power source. Do not attach the other end of the
jumper wire to the relay at this time.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW OHMMETER TO CONTACT TERMINALS 85 OR 86 DURING THIS
TEST. DAMAGE TO OHMMETER MAY RESULT.
7. Attach the other end of the jumper wire to relay terminal 86. This activates the relay. The
ohmmeter should now show continuity between relay
terminals 87 and 30. The ohmmeter should not show continuity between relay terminals 87A and
30.
8. Disconnect jumper wires. 9. Replace the relay if it did not pass the continuity and resistance
tests. If the relay passed the tests, it operates properly. Check the remainder of the
ASD and fuel pump relay circuits.

Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
The Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor is a frequency based device. A constant voltage is applied to a
heated wire on the sensor. This wire is positioned in the air cleaner air stream and is heated by the
electrical current that the voltage produces. As air flows across it, it cools down. The heated wire or
film is a positive temperature coefficient resistor. This means that its resistance drops when its
temperature drops. The drop in resistance allows more current to flow through it in order to
maintain the programmed temperature. This current is changed to a frequency which is sent to the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and interpreted as air flow. Adjustments for air temperature and
humidity are taken into consideration because they also affect the temperature of the heated wire
or film.

Intercooler: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The charge air system consists of the charge air cooler piping, charge air cooler and intake air grid
heater.
The Charge Air Cooler is a heat exchanger that uses air flow from vehicle motion to dissipate heat
from the intake air. As the turbocharger increases air pressure, the air temperature increases.
Lowering the intake air temperature increases engine efficiency and power.

Wastegate Actuator: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED ACTUATOR
The Electronically Controlled Actuator is mounted to the turbocharger bearing housing. The
actuator consists of an integrated controller and a gear train that controls the position of the sliding
nozzle ring. The actuator uses a signal from the Engine Control Module (ECM) to control the
relationship between the sliding nozzle ring and turbine blades.
Moving the nozzle ring rearward or forward redirects the exhaust flow so that the turbine wheel
spins faster or slower as needed
- If the sliding nozzle is moved rearward, the turbocharger builds more pressure (turbine wheel
moves faster)
- If the sliding nozzle is moved forward, the turbocharger builds less pressure (turbine wheel moves
slower)
VGT EXHAUST BRAKE
The VGT Exhaust Brake works in conjunction with the engine and transmission to provide an
integrated braking system to help slow the vehicle. This is commonly referred to as exhaust
braking. Braking power is achieved by modulating the sliding nozzle ring to restrict the flow of
exhaust gasses from the engine, this will create high back pressure on the engine. The high back
pressure creates a high level of resistance to the motion of the pistons within the engine and this
resistance is used to reduce engine speed and thus vehicle.
The exhaust brake feature will only function when the Exhaust Brake Switch to the ON position.
With the switch in the ON Position and the vehicle moving faster then 5 MPH; the exhaust brake
will automatically operate when pressure is removed from the accelerator pedal allowing the ECM
to see 0% throttle and 0% fuel delivery.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
5.9L/6.7L DIESEL
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) (1) contains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the front timing gear. This hall effect device detects notches
located on the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CMP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs:
The interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CMP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The CMP provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine is
running. The ECM uses the CMP information primarily on engine start-up. Once the engine is
running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed. The Crankshaft Position
Sensor (CKP) is the primary engine speed indicator for the engine after the engine is running.

The CKP contains a hall effect device. A rotating, notched target wheel (tonewheel) for the CKP is
located behind the engine harmonic balancer (2). This hall effect device detects notches located on
the tonewheel. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass the tip of the CKP.
When the leading edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
interruption of magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high resulting in a signal of
approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the tonewheel notch passes the tip of the CKP, the following occurs: The
change of the magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low to 0 volts.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) also provides a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM)
at all times when the engine is running. The ECM uses this CMP information primarily on engine
start-up. Once the engine is running, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for engine speed.

Wait To Start Light: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A wait-to-start indicator is only found in the instrument clusters for vehicles equipped with an
optional diesel engine. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
the instrument cluster overlay.
The wait-to-start indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display
Symbol icon for Diesel Preheat in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is
illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board.
The wait-to-start indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Wait To Start Light: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The wait-to-start indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the air temperature
within the diesel engine intake manifold is too cool for efficient and reliable engine starting, and that
the intake air heater grids are energized in their pre-heat operating mode. This indicator is
controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming
and electronic messages received by the cluster from the Engine Control Module (ECM) over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The wait-to-start indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the wait-to-start indicator for the following reasons:
- Wait-To-Start Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
wait-to-start indicator lamp-ON message from the ECM indicating that the air temperature within
the intake manifold is too cool for efficient and reliable engine starting, the wait-to-start indicator will
be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message,
until the ECM detects that the engine is running or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF
position, whichever occurs first.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the wait-to-start indicator will
be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The ECM continually monitors the engine intake air temperature sensor to determine when the
intake air heater grids should be energized in their pre-heat operating mode. The ECM then sends
the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
(also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the wait-to-start
indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the engine intake air temperature sensor, the intake air heater grid control
circuits, the ECM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to
wait-to-start indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Description and Operation > Description > Page 6784
Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with a Cummins diesel engine, the transmission throttle valve cable has
been replace by the transmission throttle valve actuator (TTVA). The TTVA consists of an electric
DC motor, two potentiometers, and a gear drive system. The TTVA is mechanically connected to
the transmission throttle valve in the valve body by the "D" shaped opening in the bottom of the
TTVA shaft. Changes in the TTVA position are therefore transferred to the throttle valve and cause
changes in the transmission throttle pressure.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENT
The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanical adjustments.
All changes in throttle valve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The TTVA does require an initialization period after the actuator has been removed or replaced.
After the actuator has been removed or replaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30)
seconds. This will allow the ECM sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures to
learn the TTVA's current "zero" position. Once this is done, check the ECM for diagnostic trouble
codes (DTCs). If no DTCs are set relating to the TTVA, the TTVA is fully calibrated and ready for
use.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An overdrive off indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
not equipped with an optional overdrive automatic transmission, this indicator is electronically
disabled. This indicator is located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to the right of the
coolant temperature gauge.
The overdrive off indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text O/D OFF in the opaque layer
of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the
translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
When the exterior lighting is turned ON, the illumination intensity of the overdrive off indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The overdrive off indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The overdrive off indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the overdrive-OFF
position of the tow/haul switch has been selected, disabling the electronically controlled overdrive
feature of the automatic transmission. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data
bus.
The overdrive off indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the overdrive off indicator for the following reasons:
- Overdrive Off Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
overdrive off indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the overdrive-OFF position
of the tow/haul switch has been selected, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the PCM, or until the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the overdrive off indicator will
be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the tow/haul switch to determine the proper outputs to the automatic
transmission. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission control system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to overdrive off indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transmission over-temperature indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this indicator is
electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
the instrument cluster overlay.
The transmission over-temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for Transmission Temperature in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being
clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the
opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer
layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The transmission over-temperature indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The transmission over-temperature indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
transmission fluid temperature is excessive, which may lead to accelerated transmission
component wear or failure. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster
circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The transmission over-temperature indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by
the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the transmission over-temperature indicator for the
following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the transmission
over-temperature indicator is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Trans Over-Temp Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
trans over-temp indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the transmission fluid
temperature is 135 °C (275 °F) or higher, the indicator will be illuminated and a single chime tone is
sounded. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from
the PCM, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime
tone feature will only repeat during the same ignition cycle if the indicator is cycled OFF and then
ON again by the appropriate lamp-ON and lamp-OFF messages from the PCM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the transmission
over-temperature indicator will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the
test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the transmission temperature sensor to determine the transmission
operating condition. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If
the instrument cluster illuminates the transmission over-temperature indicator due to a high
transmission oil temperature condition, it may indicate that the transmission or the transmission
cooling system are being overloaded, or that they require service. For further diagnosis of the
transmission over-temperature indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED,
Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission temperature sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data
bus or the electronic communication related to transmission over-temperature indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An electronic automatic transmission gear selector indicator is standard factory-installed equipment
on this vehicle. However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this
indicator is electronically disabled. The gear selector indicator information is displayed in an
electronic, blue-green Vacuum-Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. This VFD unit is soldered onto the
cluster electronic circuit board and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located on
the lower edge of the speedometer dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD
prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
The gear selector indicator displays the following characters from left to right: P, R, N, D, 2, and 1.
Each character appears in a blue-green color and at the same lighting level as the odometer
information. Respectively, these characters represent the PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,
second gear, and first gear positions of the transmission gear selector lever on the steering
column. The indicator illuminates a rectangular box around the character that represents the
currently selected lever position.
During daylight hours (exterior lamps are OFF) the gear selector indicator is illuminated at full
brightness for clear visibility. At night (exterior lamps are ON), the indicator lighting level is adjusted
with the other cluster general illumination lamps using the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the
headlamp switch. However, a PARADE mode position of the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel
allows the indicator to be illuminated at full brightness if the exterior lamps are turned ON during
daylight hours.
The gear selector indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD unit in the instrument cluster.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The electronic gear selector indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the transmission
gear that has been selected with the automatic transmission gear selector lever. This indicator is
controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming. The cluster
circuitry automatically configures itself for the proper transmission type based upon the hard wired
transmission range sensor mux circuit input to the cluster.
The gear selector indicator information is displayed by the odometer/trip odometer Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board, and
the VFD will not display the gear selector indicator information after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Each time the cluster is disconnected from battery current for more than about
five minutes, it must configure itself for the automatic transmission type that is in the vehicle once it
is reconnected to battery current. The instrument cluster circuitry configures the gear selector
indicator based upon the following inputs from the transmission range sensor:
- Open Circuit - If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission and the transmission
range sensor mux circuit is open, the cluster circuitry controls the gear selector indicator display
based upon an electronic selected gear message received from the Transmission Control Module
(TCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. If the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS)
mux circuit is open and no electronic selected gear messages are received from the TCM within
two seconds, the instrument cluster circuitry will not display any gear selector position until the
condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Resolved Circuit - If the transmission range sensor mux circuit is resolved, the cluster circuitry
controls the gear selector indicator display based upon the resistance value of the hard wired input
from the TRS. If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission with a TRS input and
detects a short to ground or an open in the TRS mux input, the instrument cluster circuitry will not
display any gear selector position in the VFD. The VFD display for the short-to-ground and open
circuit conditions will continue until the condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the odometer/trip odometer
VFD will display all of its characters at once, then step through each character segment individually
during the VFD portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the VFD and the cluster control
circuitry.
On vehicles with a TCM, the TCM continually monitors the TRS, then sends the proper message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). On vehicles without a TCM, the EMIC continually monitors the hard wired TRS
multiplexed input. On vehicles with a TCM, for proper diagnosis of the TRS, the TCM, the EMIC,
the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to gear selector indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp - Transfer Case: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The service 4WD indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for an electronic transfer
case circuit or component malfunction. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the TIPM over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The service 4WD indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the service 4WD indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the service 4WD indicator is
illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Service 4WD Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic service
4WD indicator lamp-ON message from the TIPM, the service 4WD indicator will be illuminated. The
indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the TIPM, or until
the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the TIPM
for 10 seconds the service 4WD indicator is illuminated by the cluster to indicate a loss of TIPM
communication. The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid
message is received from the TIPM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the service 4WD indicator
will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the
functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The TIPM continually monitors the electronic transfer case control circuits and transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine the condition of the system. The TIPM then sends the
proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also
known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the service 4WD indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the TIPM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic communication
related to service 4WD indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

Control Module: Customer Interest A/T Controls - Harsh 2-3 Upshift/Coast Downshift
NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

Control Module: Description and Operation Transmission Control Module - Operation
OPERATION
RLE and RFE TRANSMISSIONS
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) controls all electronic operations of the transmission. The
TCM receives information regarding vehicle operation from both direct and indirect inputs, and
selects the operational mode of the transmission. Direct inputs are hard wired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs are shared with the TCM via the vehicle communication
bus.
Some examples of direct inputs to the TCM are:
- Battery (B+) voltage
- Ignition "ON" voltage
- Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+) (if equipped)
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Transmission Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Shaft Speed Sensor
- Output Shaft Speed Sensor
- Line Pressure Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Target Idle
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Ambient/Battery Temperature
- Scan Tool Communication
Based on the information received from these various inputs, the TCM determines the appropriate
shift schedule and shift points, depending on the present operating conditions and driver demand.
This is possible through the control of various direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of TCM direct outputs are:
- Transmission Control Relay
- Solenoids
- Torque Reduction Request
Some examples of TCM indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM)
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN)
In addition to monitoring inputs and controlling outputs, the TCM has other important
responsibilities and functions:
- Storing and maintaining Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI)
- Storing and selecting appropriate Shift Schedules
- System self-diagnostics
- Diagnostic capabilities (with scan tool)
NOTE: If the TCM has been replaced, the "Quick Learn Procedure" must be performed. See:
Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning/Transmission Control Module/TCM Quick
Learn
BATTERY FEED
A fused, direct battery feed to the TCM is used for continuous power. This battery voltage is
necessary to retain memory in the TCM. When the battery (B+) is disconnected, this memory is
lost. When the battery (B+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the TCM and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
CLUTCH VOLUME INDEXES (CVI)
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - A/T > Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Transmission Control Module - Description > Page 7015
An important function of the TCM is to monitor Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI). CVIs represent the
volume of fluid needed to compress a clutch pack.
The TCM monitors gear ratio changes by monitoring the Input and Output Speed Sensors. The
Input, or Turbine Speed Sensor sends an electrical signal to the TCM that represents input shaft
rpm. The Output Speed Sensor provides the TCM with output shaft speed information.
By comparing the two inputs, the TCM can determine transmission gear position. This is important
to the CVI calculation because the TCM determines CVIs by monitoring how long it takes for a gear
change to occur.
Gear ratios can be determined by using the Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sensor
values in the "Monitors" display. Gear ratio can be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor
value by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000 rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the TCM can determine that the gear ratio is 2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio
changes to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied and released. By monitoring the
length of time it takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift request, the TCM can determine
the volume of fluid used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the volume of fluid need to apply the element
increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the input clutch assembly can cause inadequate or
out-of-range element volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed Sensors and wiring can cause
these conditions. The following charts identifies the appropriate clutch volumes and when they are
monitored/updated:

Operation > Transmission Control Module - Description > Page 7016
SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the TCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift lever position
- Throttle position
- Engine load
- Fluid temperature
- Software level
As driving conditions change, the TCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the
following chart to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7039
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.

Control Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality now resides in the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM), refer to the TIPM information for location and additional information. The
TIPM controls the 4X4 transfer case shift functions via the actuation of a shift motor and utilizing
the feedback of a mode sensor assembly. Communication is via the CAN bus. Inputs include user
selectable 4X4 modes that include 2WD, AWD, 4HI, 4LO, and Neutral (selections vary with the
specific transfer case).

Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality in the Totally Integrated Power Module
(TIPM) utilizes the input from the transfer case mounted mode sensor, the instrument panel
mounted selector switch, and the following information from the vehicle's CAN bus to determine if a
shift is allowed.
- Engine RPM and Vehicle Speed
- Diagnostic Requests
- Manual Transmission and Brake Applied
- PRNDL
- Ignition Status
- ABS Messages
Once the TIP determines that a requested shift is allowed, it actuates the bi-directional shift motor
as necessary to achieve the desired transfer case operating mode. The TIPM also monitors the
mode sensor while controlling the shift motor to determine the status of the shift attempt.
Several items can cause the requested shift not to be completed. If the TIPM has recognized a
fault (DTC) of some variety, it will begin operation in one of four Functionality Levels. These levels
are:
- Level Zero - Normal Operation.
- Level One - Only Mode Shifts Are Allowed.
- Level Two - Only Mode Shifts and Shifts Into LOW Are Allowed (No Neutral Shifts Are Allowed).
- Level Three - No Shifts Are Allowed
The TIPM can also be operating in one of three possible power modes. These power modes are:
- Full Power Mode is the normal operational mode of the module. This mode is achieved by normal
CAN bus traffic being present and the ignition being in the RUN position.
Reduced Power Mode will be entered when the ignition has been powered off. In this state, the
module will shut down power supplied to external devices, and to electronic interface inputs and
outputs. From this state the module can enter either Sleep Mode or Full Power Mode. To enter this
mode, the module must receive an ignition message denoting that the ignition is off, or not receive
any messages for 5 ±0.5 seconds. To exit this mode, the module must receive one ignition
message that denotes that the ignition is in the RUN position.
- Sleep Mode will be entered, from the Reduced Power Mode, when no CAN traffic has been
sensed for 20 ±1 seconds. If during Sleep Mode the module detects CAN bus traffic, it will revert to
the Reduced Power mode while monitoring for ignition messages. It will remain in this state as long
as there is traffic other than run or start messages, and will return to Sleep mode if the bus goes
without traffic for 20 ±1 seconds.
SHIFT REQUIREMENTS
If the TIPM is in full power mode and at functionality level zero, it uses the following criteria to
determine if a shift is allowed.
If any of the driver controllable conditions are not met once the shift request is recognized, the
TIPM will solidly illuminate the source position's LED and flash the desired position's LED for all
shifts except NEUTRAL. The NEUTRAL shift LED strategy will be discussed later.
Mode shifts will be allowed regardless of transmission gear or vehicle speed, whenever the
following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector switch state indicates that a mode shift has been requested.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
Range shifts will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector Switch state indicating a range shift has been requested.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal must be recognized for at least 1.5 seconds ±100 msec.
(Automatic transmissions only)
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Clutch signal is recognized for 500 msec ± 50 msec (Manual transmissions only).
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7063
A shift into transfer case Neutral will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- The recessed Neutral Selection switch has been depressed continuously for 4.0 seconds ±100
msec while all shift conditions have been continuously met.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal recognized from the bus. (Automatic transmissions only)
- Clutch signal is recognized from the bus (Manual transmissions only).
- Proper message transmissions/receptions are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position, engine off.
- Foot Brake is applied.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
A shift out of transfer case Neutral will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- The recessed Neutral Selection switch has been depressed continuously for 1.0 seconds ±100
msec while all shift conditions have been continuously met.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal recognized from the bus.(Automatic transmissions only)
- Clutch signal is recognized from the bus (Manual transmissions only).
- Proper message transmissions/receptions are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
- Foot Brake is applied.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
SHIFT SEQUENCES
Once all the driver controllable conditions for the requested shift have been met, the TIPM begins a
shift timer with a maximum duration of 1 second per 'D' channel transition. If the shift timer expires
before the TIPM recognizes to correct mode sensor code, the shift is considered to have been
blocked. The blocked shift will increment the blocked shift counter by one. The TIPM strategy for
handling blocked shifts will be described later. The process the TIPM performs for the various shifts
will be described first.
RANGE AND MODE SHIFTS
The process for performing all the range and mode shifts are the same. The following steps
describe the process.
- Allow time for Selector Switch debounce; 250 msec ±50 msec.
- Extinguish the source gear's LED while flashing desired transfer case position's LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel transition in the
destination gear's direction while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Solidly illuminate the selected gear's LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds ±100 msec. per 'D'
channel. The TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired
position.
The exception to the preceding sequence is when a shift from 4L to 2WD/AWD is requested. If
2WD/AWD is requested from the 4L position, the transfer case is first driven to the 4H position. If
the 4H position is reached, the transfer case is then driven back to the 2WD/AWD position and the
shift is considered complete. If the transfer case does not reach any the 4H position, but is in the
2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the 2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the
shift is also considered complete.
SHIFT OUT OF NEUTRAL
The following steps describe the process for a shift out of NEUTRAL.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec toward the transfer case 4H mode
position while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds 100 msec. The
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7064
TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired position.
- When the Neutral button is released, if the 4H position is the desired position, the shift is
complete. Illuminate the 4H LED.
- Otherwise when the Neutral button is released, if all of the shift requirements are being met then
engage the shift motor towards the desired position for 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel. (if
requirements for shifting are not met, illuminate the 4H LED and flash the destination LED as an
indication to the driver that all of the driver controllable shift conditions are not being met). If this
requires another range or mode shift, begin the range/mode shift process.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (i.e. a blocked or other
condition exists), refer to the Blocked Shift Strategy.
BLOCKED SHIFT STRATEGY
When a shift is commanded, the shift motor will be driven towards its destination position, except in
the case of shifting out of Neutral if 4L was selected (the transfer case will shift to the 4H position
first, before proceeding to 4L). If the shift is blocked on the way to the destination, the TIPM may
attempt to drive the motor back to the original position. This process will be allowed to occur 5
times. If the transfer case has reached a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel during the shift re-attempts,
the LED for the achieved gear position is illuminated and the shift attempts are stopped. To
re-attempt the desired shift, the selector switch will need to be rotated to the current position until
the switch debounce timer expires then a shift will need to be requested again.
At the end of the 5th blocked attempt, the shift motor is driven towards the last known 'D' channel
position. If this motor drive allows the transfer case to reach the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the
2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the shift is considered complete
and the shift attempts are ended.
If the mode sensor is in the NEUTRAL region at the expiration of the shift timer, the TIPM will
continue to make the shift attempts according to the blocked shift strategy independent of whether
or not the driver controlled conditions are met.
For shifts from NEUTRAL, if all 5 attempts fail to reach the desired position (which by default is
4H), the motor will be driven to stall in the direction of 4H or 4L, depending on the achieved
position. If the transfer case has reached the 2WD/AWD or 4L between gear position nearest the
NEUTRAL positions and the shift conditions are no longer being met, the transfer case will be
driven toward the corresponding 'D' channel. Otherwise, the transfer case will be driven in the
direction opposite the last attempt with the desired target being 4H or 4L.
If the transfer case reaches the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel when being driven in the 4H direction, then
one final 1.0 second drive toward 4H is attempted. If the transfer case then reaches any of the 4H
positions, the shift is considered complete and the 4H LED is illuminated. If the transfer case is still
the 2WD/AWD position, the shift is considered complete and the 2WD/AWD LED is illuminated.
NOTE: If after the 5th blocked shift and reversal attempt, if the transfer case position is in the
NEUTRAL region, shift attempts will continue until a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel is reached.
SHIFT REVERSAL TARGETS
If the shift timer expires (1 second per 'D' channel) and the transfer case has not reached the
desired position, all shifts will attempt to return to their original position with the exceptions of:
- If the intended shift is going to the High rail from Low and can't make it, but it can make the
2WD/AWD position, the motor stops at that position. The TIPM will not attempt to cross back over
NEUTRAL if it does not have to. This means that there was a block on the first attempt to go to 4H
and the transfer case has made it through NEUTRAL to a known good position, then the motor will
go back only to the 2WD/4WD position and execute the remainder of the attempts from there.
- For shifts out of NEUTRAL, any time a shift is commanded out of NEUTRAL, the system needs to
get out. The TIPM should never go to NEUTRAL unless the driver is commanding it and all
required conditions are being met
ENCODER DRIFT CORRECTION
Whenever a shift is completed, the TIPM stores the position in memory as the transfer case's
intended position. The TIPM continuously monitors the mode sensor and if the mode sensor drifts
toward into a NEUTRAL region sensor position for 2.0 seconds, the TIPM will perform a motor
drive to correct the drift. The transfer case will be driven toward the intended position for 1.0
seconds 100 msec. The TIPM will wait for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeat the attempt to shift to
the desired position. This will continue until the intended position is reached.
SHIFT MOTOR BRAKING
Two modes of shift motor braking are employed to improve shift performance, static and dynamic.
Static shift motor braking is utilized under the following conditions:
- Whenever the transfer case is in the 2WD/AWD or 4L 'D' channel position.
- Whenever an invalid mode sensor code is present.
Static motor braking is achieved by applying +12V on both shift motor wires.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7065
NOTE: Static Shift Motor Braking is independent of ignition key position.
SHIFT ATTEMPT LIMIT
To protect the transfer case system, the TIPM will impose a limit on the number of shifts that can
occur over a calibrated time period. The system will monitor the number of 'D' channel segment
transitions that occur in any 30 second time period. If the number of segment transitions is 30 or
greater, the system will go into a default mode. The default mode of operation for shifting is that the
number of allowed 'D' channel transitions permitted to occur will be 3 over each 15 second ±100
msec calibrated window of time. After 5 minutes ±100 msec, the motor can be assumed to have
cooled down and the system will revert to normal operation. The following rules also apply to the
shift limit:
- The attempt limit will not prevent shifts coming out of NEUTRAL, they will be allowed regardless
of the counter/timer.
- Any shift that is in progress when the counter reaches a maximum count in time will be allowed to
complete before the default mode is entered. D-channel transitions during this period will not be
counted towards the default mode limit.
- A block, regardless of the direction, whether towards destination or back towards reversal target
(shift timer expiring), will count as a value of 2 transitions towards the 30 segment transitions to go
into default mode as defined above. Current attempt limit values are 30 transitions in 30 seconds
and default mode values are 3 transitions every 15 seconds for 5 minutes.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The TCM utilizes a closed-loop system to control transmission line pressure. The system contains
a variable force style solenoid, the Pressure Control Solenoid, which is part of the pressure switch
assembly. The solenoid is duty cycle controlled by the TCM to vent the unnecessary line pressure
supplied by the oil pump back to the pump inlet. The system contains a Line Pressure Sensor,
which is a direct input to the TCM. The line pressure sensor monitors the transmission line
pressure and completes the feedback loop to the TCM. The TCM uses this information to adjust its
control of the pressure control solenoid to achieve the desired line pressure.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The TCM calculates the desired line pressure based upon inputs from the transmission and engine.
The TCM calculates the torque input to the transmission and uses that information as the primary
input to the calculation. The line pressure is set to a predetermined value during shifts, to ensure
consistent shift quality. During all other operation, the desired line pressure value is adjusted based
on torque level and other transmission requirements.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 2nd and 3rd gear limp-in operation.
The solenoids receive electrical power from the Transmission Control Relay through a single wire.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and 545RFE
PRESSURE SWITCH STATES:
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor (1) is located in the overdrive gear case. The sensor is positioned over the park
gear and monitors transmission output shaft rotating speed.
Operation
OPERATION
Speed sensor signals are triggered by the park gear lugs as they rotate past the sensor pickup
face. Input signals from the sensor are sent to the transmission control module for processing.
Signals from this sensor are shared with the powertrain control module.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate AC
signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case and are
considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of
the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil, an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an AC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the park gear teeth. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

DESCRIPTION
INPUT AND OUTPUT SPEED SENSORS
The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate DC
square wave signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case
and are considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the "teeth"
of the gear pass by the sensor coil, an DC square wave is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an DC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the rear planetary carrier lugs. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The selector switch assembly is mounted in the left side of the vehicle's Instrument Panel (IP) and
consists of a rotary knob connected to a resistive network for the mode and range shift selections.
Also located in this assembly is a recessed, normally open momentary switch for making shifts into
and out of transfer case NEUTRAL. A pen, or similar instrument, is used to make a NEUTRAL shift
selection, thus reducing the likelihood of an inadvertent shift request.
The selector switch also contains four light emitting diode's (LED's) to indicate the transfer case
position and whether a shift is in progress.
Operation
OPERATION
As the position of the selector switch varies, the resistance between the Mode Sensor supply
voltage pin and the Mode Sensor output will vary. Hardware, software, and calibrations within the
Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) are provided that interpret the selector switch resistance as
given in the table below:
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO,
4HI, 2WD), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
- either of the neighboring valid positions.
- as an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges E and F shown for 2WD and in-between positions, the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
- the 2WD position.
- an invalid fault position.
- a valid in-between position.
For resistances between the ranges F and G shown for in-between positions and fault condition
(open), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:

For resistances between the ranges A and B shown for the fault condition (short) and T-Case

The LED's in the selector assembly are illuminated/flashed in the following manner to indicate a
particular condition or state.
- A solidly illuminated LED indicates a successfully completed shift and the current operating mode
of the transfer case. While a shift has been requested but not yet completed, the LED for the
desired transfer case position is flashed.
- A flashing operating mode LED for the desired gear indicates that a shift to that position has been
requested, but all of the driver controllable conditions have not been met. This is in an attempt to
notify the driver that the transmission needs to be put into NEUTRAL, the vehicle speed is too
great, or some other condition outlined (other than a diagnostic failure that would prevent this shift)

Case/Control Module/Description and Operation/Operation is not met. Note that this flashing will
continue indefinitely until the conditions are eventually met, or the selector switch position is

- If the driver attempts to make a shift into transfer case NEUTRAL, and any of the driver
controllable conditions are not met, the request will be ignored until all of the conditions are met or
until the NEUTRAL select button is released. Additionally the neutral lamp will flash, or begin to
flash while the button is depressed and operator controllable conditions are not being met. All of
the LED's except the Neutral will flash if any of the operator controllable conditions for shifting are
not met while the Neutral button is depressed. This "toggle" type of feature is necessary because
the TCCM would interpret another request immediately after the shift into transfer case NEUTRAL
has completed.
- No LED's illuminated indicate a fault in the transfer case control system.

Gear Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation NV244 GENII Transfer Case
Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case mode sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to indicate
the shift motor shaft's rotary position. The sensor consists of a magnetic ring and four Hall Effect
Transistors to create a 4 channel digital device (non-contacting) whose output converts the motor
shaft position into a coded signal. The TCCM must supply 5VDC (+/- 0.5v) to the sensor and
monitor the shift motor position. The four channels are denoted A, B, C, and D. The sensor is
mechanically linked to the shaft of the cam which causes the transfer case shifting. The mode
sensor draws less than 53 mA.
Operation
OPERATION
During normal vehicle operation, the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) monitors the mode
sensor outputs at least every 250 (+/-50) milliseconds when the shift motor is stationary and 400
microseconds when the shift motor is active. A mode sensor signal between 3.8 Volts and 0.8 Volts
is considered to be undefined.
Refer to SECTOR ANGLES vs.TRANSFER CASE POSITION for the relative angles of the transfer
case shift sector versus the interpreted transfer case gear operating mode. Refer to MODE
SENSOR CHANNEL STATES for the sensor codes returned to the TCCM for each transfer case
mode sensor position. The various between gears positions can also be referred as the transfer
case's coarse position. These coarse positions come into play during shift attempts.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case position sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to
indicate the transfer case's current operating mode. The sensor consists of a five position, resistive
multiplexed circuit which returns a specific resistance value to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) for each transfer case operating mode. The sensor is located on the top of the transfer
case, just left of the transfer case centerline and rides against the sector plate roostercomb. The
PCM supplies 5VDC (+/- 0.5V) to the sensor and monitors the return voltage to determine the
sector plate, and therefore the transfer case, position.
Operation
OPERATION
Position Sensor Linear Movement
During normal vehicle operation, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the transfer case
position sensor return voltage to determine the operating mode of the transfer case. Refer to the
Operating Mode Versus Resistance table for the correct resistance for each position.

SUBJECT: MIL Illumination Due to DIG P2262 - Revised Diagnosis and Repair Procedures
OVERVIEW: This bulletin discusses revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC P2262 Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical. Recent PGM calibration updates have
improved the robustness to this DIG through updated diagnostic strategies. As a result, many
events which have no adverse affects on drivability, emissions, or reliability will no longer set the
P2262 fault.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicle equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination due to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC):
P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical.
As a result of recent PCM calibration updates, the proper repair for some P2262 faults is to just
update the calibration, while others will require cleaning or replacing the turbocharger. Scan Tool
software update 9.05 (and later) includes a P2262 diagnosis test for this purpose. This diagnostic
test uses Freeze Frame data stored in the PCM and a dynamic turbocharger response test to
determine the correct repair for each truck with DTC P2262.
The new P2262 diagnosis test must be used prior to performing any of the following:
^ Clearing codes.
^ Updating the PCM.
^ Beginning the turbocharger repair.
The test must be used with the key in the run position with the engine off, and with coolant
temperature between 50°F and 180° F. The time required to run this test will vary with the
calibration level of the truck, from a few seconds up to a couple minutes. This is normal operation
for the test.
NOTE:
The P2262 diagnosis test MUST NOT be used after the repair is complete, as this test CANNOT
be used to confirm the repair. Test results will be inaccurate.

2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
Engines that exhibit particular symptoms that may have been caused by improper air filtration.
Some of these symptoms are listed below (not limited to)
^ Knocking
^ Hard or no start
^ Low power / poor performance
^ Oil consumption
^ Lower end bearing failure
^ Smoking
^ Blow-by (rings not sealing)

documents for pictures regarding dust-outs.
NOTE:
Canadian dealers can refer to Tech-Tip # 18 - CUMMINS DIESEL ENGINES FAILURES DO TO
DIRTY AIR ENTERING THE INDUCTION SYSTEM - HOW TO INSPECT FOR SIGNS OF A
"DUST OUT" ENGINE FAILURE sent 05/19/2010 for pictures regarding dust-outs.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Perform a compression test. Low compression is generally due to ring/piston/valve issues. High
compression may be due to oil infiltration causing a
hydraulic effect.
2. Major mechanical damage can also be caused by fuel, fuel injectors or "Up-rate kits or
"programmers". Inspect vehicle for any device that adds more
power, (fuel) which may damage the engine mechanically. Check for any aftermarket power
enhancer or "box" or "downloader".Repairs of failures caused by these devices do not qualify for
warranty coverage.
3. Inspect all air handling ducts and components. (See eFiles document). If dirt is found in the air
handling components, further diagnostics may not be
necessary. Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air filter will not qualify for warranty
coverage.
4. Inspect for aftermarket "cold air" performance air filter housing, duct work and filters. Again,
Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air
filter will not qualify for warranty coverage.
5. Inspect cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring ridge. The absence of
cylinder bore cross-hatching MAY be one of the first
signs of cylinder dust or dirt damage. Cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring
ridge may be inspected using a bore scope (if available), or cylinder head removal may be
necessary. Contact your Business Center or Service and Parts Area Manager if dust out evidence
is noticed or any type of tampering is suspected. Dirt carried in through the air handling system is
typically funneled and concentrated to the end (1 & 6) cylinders*. Vertical scratches (broken rings)
will follow. Generally, a properly maintained engine will have well defined hone marks visible
beyond 100,000 miles.
NOTE:
Be aware of stains or marks in cylinder wall(s). Marks may follow the ring gap but have no depth or
damage to the cylinder bore wall. These marks have a look similar to a "scored" cylinder, yet have
no physical damage to the surface and will not cause any harm. These marks be checked by
physically inspecting (scratching) the surface to detect if cylinder wall is damaged (grooved).
6. When inspecting the cylinder bore(s), compare cylinders # 1 & # 6 to the others. Cylinder honing
(cross-hatching) performed in the Cummins
engine manufacturing process is very aggressive. Engines that have dirt introduced will "polish out"
this hone witness mark first and then start cutting or wearing down the cylinder walls which will
create a ring ridge in the cylinder bore at the top of the bore. The absence of the cross-hatching
ALONG WITH dirt found anywhere in the "clean-side" of the air intake system, is evidence of a
dust-out condition.

Service Procedure
NOTE:
Either wiTECH, StarMOBILE or StarSCAN can be used to perform this recall. This procedure must
be performed with software release level 10.02 or higher for wiTECH and Star Mobile applications,
or software release level 9.05 for StarSCAN applications. If the reprogramming flash for the ECM is
aborted or interrupted, repeat the procedure.
A. Reprogram the ECM Using wiTECH:
CAUTION:
On 2007 model year trucks, verify that Emissions Recall G30 has been completed prior to
performing this notification. Recall G30 contains "bootloader" software that must be installed to
prevent damage to the ECM.
1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5
volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the
flash process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
NOTE:
Use an accurate stand alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently
accurate. Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash. If voltage

SUBJECT: MIL Illumination Due to DIG P2262 - Revised Diagnosis and Repair Procedures
OVERVIEW: This bulletin discusses revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC P2262 Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical. Recent PGM calibration updates have
improved the robustness to this DIG through updated diagnostic strategies. As a result, many
events which have no adverse affects on drivability, emissions, or reliability will no longer set the
P2262 fault.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicle equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination due to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC):
P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical.
As a result of recent PCM calibration updates, the proper repair for some P2262 faults is to just
update the calibration, while others will require cleaning or replacing the turbocharger. Scan Tool
software update 9.05 (and later) includes a P2262 diagnosis test for this purpose. This diagnostic
test uses Freeze Frame data stored in the PCM and a dynamic turbocharger response test to
determine the correct repair for each truck with DTC P2262.
The new P2262 diagnosis test must be used prior to performing any of the following:
^ Clearing codes.
^ Updating the PCM.
^ Beginning the turbocharger repair.
The test must be used with the key in the run position with the engine off, and with coolant
temperature between 50°F and 180° F. The time required to run this test will vary with the
calibration level of the truck, from a few seconds up to a couple minutes. This is normal operation
for the test.
NOTE:
The P2262 diagnosis test MUST NOT be used after the repair is complete, as this test CANNOT
be used to confirm the repair. Test results will be inaccurate.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

NOTE:
This bulletin applies to any Cummins diesel equipped vehicle still covered under the manufacturers
warranty.
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
Engines that exhibit particular symptoms that may have been caused by improper air filtration.
Some of these symptoms are listed below (not limited to)
^ Knocking
^ Hard or no start
^ Low power / poor performance
^ Oil consumption
^ Lower end bearing failure
^ Smoking
^ Blow-by (rings not sealing)
^ Oil on turbo (dust damage to seal/bearing)

documents for pictures regarding dust-outs.
NOTE:
Canadian dealers can refer to Tech-Tip # 18 - CUMMINS DIESEL ENGINES FAILURES DO TO
DIRTY AIR ENTERING THE INDUCTION SYSTEM - HOW TO INSPECT FOR SIGNS OF A
"DUST OUT" ENGINE FAILURE sent 05/19/2010 for pictures regarding dust-outs.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Perform a compression test. Low compression is generally due to ring/piston/valve issues. High
compression may be due to oil infiltration causing a
hydraulic effect.
2. Major mechanical damage can also be caused by fuel, fuel injectors or "Up-rate kits or
"programmers". Inspect vehicle for any device that adds more
power, (fuel) which may damage the engine mechanically. Check for any aftermarket power
enhancer or "box" or "downloader".Repairs of failures caused by these devices do not qualify for
warranty coverage.
3. Inspect all air handling ducts and components. (See eFiles document). If dirt is found in the air
handling components, further diagnostics may not be
necessary. Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air filter will not qualify for warranty
coverage.
4. Inspect for aftermarket "cold air" performance air filter housing, duct work and filters. Again,
Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air
filter will not qualify for warranty coverage.
5. Inspect cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring ridge. The absence of
cylinder bore cross-hatching MAY be one of the first
signs of cylinder dust or dirt damage. Cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring
ridge may be inspected using a bore scope (if available), or cylinder head removal may be
necessary. Contact your Business Center or Service and Parts Area Manager if dust out evidence
is noticed or any type of tampering is suspected. Dirt carried in through the air handling system is
typically funneled and concentrated to the end (1 & 6) cylinders*. Vertical scratches (broken rings)
will follow. Generally, a properly maintained engine will have well defined hone marks visible
beyond 100,000 miles.
NOTE:
Be aware of stains or marks in cylinder wall(s). Marks may follow the ring gap but have no depth or
damage to the cylinder bore wall. These marks have a look similar to a "scored" cylinder, yet have
no physical damage to the surface and will not cause any harm. These marks be checked by
physically inspecting (scratching) the surface to detect if cylinder wall is damaged (grooved).
6. When inspecting the cylinder bore(s), compare cylinders # 1 & # 6 to the others. Cylinder honing
(cross-hatching) performed in the Cummins
engine manufacturing process is very aggressive. Engines that have dirt introduced will "polish out"
this hone witness mark first and then start cutting or wearing down the cylinder walls which will
create a ring ridge in the cylinder bore at the top of the bore. The absence of the cross-hatching
ALONG WITH dirt found anywhere in the "clean-side" of the air intake system, is evidence of a
dust-out condition.

SUBJECT: MIL Illumination Due to DIG P2262 - Revised Diagnosis and Repair Procedures
OVERVIEW: This bulletin discusses revised diagnostic and repair procedures for DTC P2262 Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical. Recent PGM calibration updates have
improved the robustness to this DIG through updated diagnostic strategies. As a result, many
events which have no adverse affects on drivability, emissions, or reliability will no longer set the
P2262 fault.
MODELS:
2007 - 2009 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicle equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales code ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination due to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC):
P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical.
As a result of recent PCM calibration updates, the proper repair for some P2262 faults is to just
update the calibration, while others will require cleaning or replacing the turbocharger. Scan Tool
software update 9.05 (and later) includes a P2262 diagnosis test for this purpose. This diagnostic
test uses Freeze Frame data stored in the PCM and a dynamic turbocharger response test to
determine the correct repair for each truck with DTC P2262.
The new P2262 diagnosis test must be used prior to performing any of the following:
^ Clearing codes.
^ Updating the PCM.
^ Beginning the turbocharger repair.
The test must be used with the key in the run position with the engine off, and with coolant
temperature between 50°F and 180° F. The time required to run this test will vary with the
calibration level of the truck, from a few seconds up to a couple minutes. This is normal operation
for the test.
NOTE:
The P2262 diagnosis test MUST NOT be used after the repair is complete, as this test CANNOT
be used to confirm the repair. Test results will be inaccurate.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

documents for pictures regarding dust-outs.
NOTE:
Canadian dealers can refer to Tech-Tip # 18 - CUMMINS DIESEL ENGINES FAILURES DO TO
DIRTY AIR ENTERING THE INDUCTION SYSTEM - HOW TO INSPECT FOR SIGNS OF A
"DUST OUT" ENGINE FAILURE sent 05/19/2010 for pictures regarding dust-outs.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Perform a compression test. Low compression is generally due to ring/piston/valve issues. High
compression may be due to oil infiltration causing a
hydraulic effect.
2. Major mechanical damage can also be caused by fuel, fuel injectors or "Up-rate kits or
"programmers". Inspect vehicle for any device that adds more
power, (fuel) which may damage the engine mechanically. Check for any aftermarket power
enhancer or "box" or "downloader".Repairs of failures caused by these devices do not qualify for
warranty coverage.
3. Inspect all air handling ducts and components. (See eFiles document). If dirt is found in the air
handling components, further diagnostics may not be
necessary. Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air filter will not qualify for warranty
coverage.
4. Inspect for aftermarket "cold air" performance air filter housing, duct work and filters. Again,
Engines with dirt detected on the "clean side" of air
filter will not qualify for warranty coverage.
5. Inspect cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring ridge. The absence of
cylinder bore cross-hatching MAY be one of the first
signs of cylinder dust or dirt damage. Cylinder bore(s) for cross-hatching and excessive piston ring
ridge may be inspected using a bore scope (if available), or cylinder head removal may be
necessary. Contact your Business Center or Service and Parts Area Manager if dust out evidence
is noticed or any type of tampering is suspected. Dirt carried in through the air handling system is
typically funneled and concentrated to the end (1 & 6) cylinders*. Vertical scratches (broken rings)
will follow. Generally, a properly maintained engine will have well defined hone marks visible
beyond 100,000 miles.
NOTE:
Be aware of stains or marks in cylinder wall(s). Marks may follow the ring gap but have no depth or
damage to the cylinder bore wall. These marks have a look similar to a "scored" cylinder, yet have
no physical damage to the surface and will not cause any harm. These marks be checked by
physically inspecting (scratching) the surface to detect if cylinder wall is damaged (grooved).
6. When inspecting the cylinder bore(s), compare cylinders # 1 & # 6 to the others. Cylinder honing
(cross-hatching) performed in the Cummins
engine manufacturing process is very aggressive. Engines that have dirt introduced will "polish out"
this hone witness mark first and then start cutting or wearing down the cylinder walls which will
create a ring ridge in the cylinder bore at the top of the bore. The absence of the cross-hatching
ALONG WITH dirt found anywhere in the "clean-side" of the air intake system, is evidence of a
dust-out condition.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with a Cummins diesel engine, the transmission throttle valve cable has
been replace by the transmission throttle valve actuator (TTVA). The TTVA consists of an electric
DC motor, two potentiometers, and a gear drive system. The TTVA is mechanically connected to
the transmission throttle valve in the valve body by the "D" shaped opening in the bottom of the
TTVA shaft. Changes in the TTVA position are therefore transferred to the throttle valve and cause
changes in the transmission throttle pressure.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENT
The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanical adjustments.
All changes in throttle valve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The TTVA does require an initialization period after the actuator has been removed or replaced.
After the actuator has been removed or replaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30)
seconds. This will allow the ECM sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures to
learn the TTVA's current "zero" position. Once this is done, check the ECM for diagnostic trouble
codes (DTCs). If no DTCs are set relating to the TTVA, the TTVA is fully calibrated and ready for
use.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with a Cummins diesel engine, the transmission throttle valve cable has
been replace by the transmission throttle valve actuator (TTVA). The TTVA consists of an electric
DC motor, two potentiometers, and a gear drive system. The TTVA is mechanically connected to
the transmission throttle valve in the valve body by the "D" shaped opening in the bottom of the
TTVA shaft. Changes in the TTVA position are therefore transferred to the throttle valve and cause
changes in the transmission throttle pressure.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENT
The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanical adjustments.
All changes in throttle valve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The TTVA does require an initialization period after the actuator has been removed or replaced.
After the actuator has been removed or replaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30)
seconds. This will allow the ECM sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures to
learn the TTVA's current "zero" position. Once this is done, check the ECM for diagnostic trouble
codes (DTCs). If no DTCs are set relating to the TTVA, the TTVA is fully calibrated and ready for
use.

A/T Controls - Harsh 2-3 Upshift/Coast Downshift
Control Module: Customer Interest A/T Controls - Harsh 2-3 Upshift/Coast Downshift
NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

SPECIAL TOOLS / EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:
REPAIR PROCEDURE - USING StarSCAN AND THE INTERNET TO RETRIEVE THE FLASH
FILE:
NOTE:
Before performing this Repair Procedure, the operating software in the StarSCAN(R) must be
programmed with software release level 8.03 or higher.
The software release level is visible in the blue header at the top of the StarSCAN(R) screen.
NOTE:
The StarSCAN(R) diagnostic scan tool fully supports Internet connectivity. However, in order to
take advantage of this feature you must first configure the StarSCAN® for your dealership's
network. For instruction on setting up your StarSCAN(R) for the dealer's network; refer to the
StarSCAN(R) Quick Start Networking Guide available on the website under the "download center".
NOTE:
If this flash process is interrupted/aborted, the flash should be restarted.
1. Open the hood and install a battery charger. Using a voltmeter, verify that the charging rate
provides 13.2 - 13.5 volts. Set the battery charger to continuous charge. Do not allow the charger
to time out during the flash process. Remove the charger from the battery when the flash process
is complete.
NOTE:
Do not allow the charging voltage to climb above 13.5 volts during the flash process.
2. Connect the CH9410 StarSCAN(R) ethernet cable to the StarSCAN(R) and the dealer's network
drop.
3. Connect the CH9404 StarSCAN(R) vehicle cable to the StarSCAN(R) and the vehicle.
4. Place the ignition switch in the "RUN" position. Do not start engine.
5. Power ON the StarSCAN®.

Control Module: Description and Operation Transmission Control Module - Operation
OPERATION
RLE and RFE TRANSMISSIONS
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) controls all electronic operations of the transmission. The
TCM receives information regarding vehicle operation from both direct and indirect inputs, and
selects the operational mode of the transmission. Direct inputs are hard wired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs are shared with the TCM via the vehicle communication
bus.
Some examples of direct inputs to the TCM are:
- Battery (B+) voltage
- Ignition "ON" voltage
- Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+) (if equipped)
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Transmission Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Shaft Speed Sensor
- Output Shaft Speed Sensor
- Line Pressure Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Target Idle
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Ambient/Battery Temperature
- Scan Tool Communication
Based on the information received from these various inputs, the TCM determines the appropriate
shift schedule and shift points, depending on the present operating conditions and driver demand.
This is possible through the control of various direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of TCM direct outputs are:
- Transmission Control Relay
- Solenoids
- Torque Reduction Request
Some examples of TCM indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM)
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN)
In addition to monitoring inputs and controlling outputs, the TCM has other important
responsibilities and functions:
- Storing and maintaining Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI)
- Storing and selecting appropriate Shift Schedules
- System self-diagnostics
- Diagnostic capabilities (with scan tool)
NOTE: If the TCM has been replaced, the "Quick Learn Procedure" must be performed. See:
Transmission Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning/Transmission
Control Module/TCM Quick Learn
BATTERY FEED
A fused, direct battery feed to the TCM is used for continuous power. This battery voltage is
necessary to retain memory in the TCM. When the battery (B+) is disconnected, this memory is
lost. When the battery (B+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the TCM and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
CLUTCH VOLUME INDEXES (CVI)
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Control Module, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control Module - Description > Page 7812
An important function of the TCM is to monitor Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI). CVIs represent the
volume of fluid needed to compress a clutch pack.
The TCM monitors gear ratio changes by monitoring the Input and Output Speed Sensors. The
Input, or Turbine Speed Sensor sends an electrical signal to the TCM that represents input shaft
rpm. The Output Speed Sensor provides the TCM with output shaft speed information.
By comparing the two inputs, the TCM can determine transmission gear position. This is important
to the CVI calculation because the TCM determines CVIs by monitoring how long it takes for a gear
change to occur.
Gear ratios can be determined by using the Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sensor
values in the "Monitors" display. Gear ratio can be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor
value by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000 rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the TCM can determine that the gear ratio is 2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio
changes to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied and released. By monitoring the
length of time it takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift request, the TCM can determine
the volume of fluid used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the volume of fluid need to apply the element
increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the input clutch assembly can cause inadequate or
out-of-range element volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed Sensors and wiring can cause
these conditions. The following charts identifies the appropriate clutch volumes and when they are
monitored/updated:

Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control Module - Description > Page 7813
SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the TCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift lever position
- Throttle position
- Engine load
- Fluid temperature
- Software level
As driving conditions change, the TCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the
following chart to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

used to top off vehicles that used ATF+3, ATF+2, or ATF+.
NOTE:
If ATF+4® is used to service models originally filled with ATF+3, ATF+2, and ATF+ the fluid
maintenance schedules listed for that model does not change. The service interval currently in
effect for a given model should continue to be followed. Refer to the Service or Owners manual for
maintenance schedule directions.
In general terms, If ATF+, ATF+2 or ATF+3 was the recommended fluid, it is now recommended to
use ATF+4®
BENEFITS
^ Better anti-wear properties
^ Improved rust/corrosion prevention
^ Controls oxidation
^ Eliminates deposits
^ Controls friction
^ Retains anti-foaming properties
^ Superior properties for low temperature operation
FLUID COLOR
Mopar ATF+4(R) has exceptional durability. However, the red dye used in ATF+4(R) is not
permanent; as the fluid ages it may become darker or appear brown in color. ATF+4(R) also has a
unique odor that may change with age. With ATF+4(R) fluid, color and odor are no longer
indicators of fluid condition and do not necessarily support a fluid change.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (ALL BUT AISIN TRANSMISSION)
NOTE: Refer to fluid level checking procedures.
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid is the recommended fluid for DaimlerChrysler
automatic transmissions.
Dexron II fluid IS NOT recommended. Clutch chatter can result from the use of improper fluid.
Mopar(R) ATF +4, Automatic Transmission Fluid when new is red in color. The ATF is dyed red so
it can be identified from other fluids used in the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red
color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal. ATF+4 also
has a unique odor that may change with age. Consequently, odor and color cannot be used to
indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.
AISIN TRANSMISSION
Mopar(R) AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluid is the recommended fluid for AISIN AS68RC
TRANSMISSION.
Mopar(R) AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluid when new is red in color. The ATF is dyed red
so it can be identified from other fluids used in the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red
color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal. Mopar(R)
AS68RC, also has a unique odor that may change with age. Consequently, odor and color cannot
be used to indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.
FLUID ADDITIVES
Chrysler strongly recommends against the addition of any fluids to the transmission, other than
those automatic transmission fluids listed above. Exceptions to this policy are the use of special
dyes to aid in detecting fluid leaks.
Various "special" additives and supplements exist that claim to improve shift feel and/or quality.
These additives and others also claim to improve converter clutch operation and inhibit
overheating, oxidation, varnish, and sludge. These claims have not been supported to the
satisfaction of Chrysler and these additives must not be used. The use of transmission "sealers"
should also be avoided, since they may adversely affect the integrity of transmission seals.

Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7835
Fluid - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
The automatic transmission fluid is selected based upon several qualities. The fluid must provide a
high level of protection for the internal components by providing a lubricating film between adjacent
metal components. The fluid must also be thermally stable so that it can maintain a consistent
viscosity through a large temperature range. If the viscosity stays constant through the temperature
range of operation, transmission operation and shift feel will remain consistent. Transmission fluid
must also be a good conductor of heat. The fluid must absorb heat from the internal transmission
components and transfer that heat to the transmission case.

Effects Of Incorrect Fluid Level
EFFECTS OF INCORRECT FLUID LEVEL
A low fluid level allows the pump to take in air along with the fluid. Air in the fluid will cause fluid
pressures to be low and develop slower than normal. If the transmission is overfilled, the gears
churn the fluid into foam. This aerates the fluid and causing the same conditions occurring with a
low level. In either case, air bubbles cause fluid overheating, oxidation, and varnish buildup which
interferes with valve and clutch operation. Foaming also causes fluid expansion which can result in
fluid overflow from the transmission vent or fill tube. Fluid overflow can easily be mistaken for a
leak if inspection is not careful.
Causes Of Burnt Fluid
CAUSES OF BURNT FLUID
Burnt, discolored fluid is a result of overheating which has three primary causes.
1. Internal clutch slippage, usually caused by low line pressure, inadequate clutch apply pressure,
or clutch seal failure. 2. A result of restricted fluid flow through the main and auxiliary cooler. This
condition is usually the result of a faulty or improperly installed
drainback valve, a damaged oil cooler, or severe restrictions in the coolers and lines caused by
debris or kinked lines.
3. Heavy duty operation with a vehicle not properly equipped for this type of operation. Trailer
towing or similar high load operation will overheat
the transmission fluid if the vehicle is improperly equipped. Such vehicles should have an auxiliary
transmission fluid cooler, a heavy duty cooling system, and the engine/axle ratio combination
needed to handle heavy loads.
Fluid Contamination
FLUID CONTAMINATION
Transmission fluid contamination is generally a result of:
- adding incorrect fluid
- failure to clean dipstick and fill tube when checking level
- engine coolant entering the fluid
- internal failure that generates debris
- overheat that generates sludge (fluid breakdown)
- failure to replace contaminated converter after repair
The use of non-recommended fluids can result in transmission failure. The usual results are erratic
shifts, slippage, abnormal wear and eventual failure due to fluid breakdown and sludge formation.
Avoid this condition by using recommended fluids only.
The dipstick cap and fill tube should be wiped clean before checking fluid level. Dirt, grease and
other foreign material on the cap and tube could fall into the tube if not removed beforehand. Take
the time to wipe the cap and tube clean before withdrawing the dipstick.
Engine coolant in the transmission fluid is generally caused by a cooler malfunction. The only
remedy is to replace the radiator as the cooler in the radiator is not a serviceable part. If coolant
has circulated through the transmission, an overhaul is necessary.
The torque converter should also be replaced whenever a failure generates sludge and debris. This
is necessary because normal converter flushing procedures will not remove all contaminants.

Fluid Level Check - 68RFE
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions because it allows the pump to take in air along with
the fluid. As in any hydraulic system, air bubbles make the fluid spongy, therefore, pressures will be
low and build up slowly.
Improper filling can also raise the fluid level too high. When the transmssion has too much fluid, the
geartrain churns up foam and cause the same conditions which occur with a low fluid level.
In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating and fluid oxidation, and varnishing. This can
interfere with normal valve, clutch, and accumulator operation. Foaming can also result in fluid
escaping from the transmission vent where it may be mistaken for a leak.
The transmission has a dipstick to check oil level. It is located on the right side of the engine. Be
sure to wipe all dirt from dipstick handle before removing.
The torque converter fills in both the P (PARK) and N (NEUTRAL) positions. Place the selector
lever in P (PARK) to be sure that the fluid level check is accurate. The engine should be running at
idle speed for at least one minute, with the vehicle on level ground. At normal operating
temperature (approximately 82° C. or 180° F), the fluid level is correct if it is in the HOT region
(cross-hatched area) on the oil level indicator. The fluid level will be approximately at the upper
COLD hole of the dipstick at 21° C (70° F) fluid temperature.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The TCM utilizes a closed-loop system to control transmission line pressure. The system contains
a variable force style solenoid, the Pressure Control Solenoid, which is part of the pressure switch
assembly. The solenoid is duty cycle controlled by the TCM to vent the unnecessary line pressure
supplied by the oil pump back to the pump inlet. The system contains a Line Pressure Sensor,
which is a direct input to the TCM. The line pressure sensor monitors the transmission line
pressure and completes the feedback loop to the TCM. The TCM uses this information to adjust its
control of the pressure control solenoid to achieve the desired line pressure.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The TCM calculates the desired line pressure based upon inputs from the transmission and engine.
The TCM calculates the torque input to the transmission and uses that information as the primary
input to the calculation. The line pressure is set to a predetermined value during shifts, to ensure
consistent shift quality. During all other operation, the desired line pressure value is adjusted based
on torque level and other transmission requirements.

Governor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Governor pressure is controlled electronically. Components used for governor pressure control
include:
- Governor body
- Valve body transfer plate
- Governor pressure solenoid valve
- Governor pressure sensor
- Fluid temperature thermistor
- Throttle position sensor (TPS)
- Transmission speed sensor
- Powertrain control module (PCM)
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SOLENOID VALVE
The solenoid valve (2) is a duty-cycle solenoid which regulates the governor pressure needed for
upshifts and downshifts. It is an electro-hydraulic device located in the governor body on the valve
body transfer plate.
GOVERNOR BODY, TRANSFER PLATE, AND PRESSURE SENSOR
The governor pressure sensor (2) measures output pressure of the governor pressure solenoid
valve.
The transfer plate is designed to supply transmission line pressure to the governor pressure
solenoid valve and to return governor pressure.
The governor pressure solenoid valve is mounted in the governor body (1). The body is bolted to
the lower side of the transfer plate.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE CURVES
There are four governor pressure curves programmed into the transmission control module. The
different curves allow the control module to adjust governor pressure for varying conditions. One
curve is used for operation when fluid temperature is at, or below, -1°C (30°F). A second curve is
used when fluid temperature is at, or above, 10°C (50°F) during normal city or highway driving. A
third curve is used during wide-open throttle operation. The fourth curve is used when driving with
the transfer case in low range.

Governor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Compensation is required for performance variations of two of the input devices. Though the slope
of the transfer functions is tightly controlled, offset may vary due to various environmental factors or
manufacturing tolerances.
The pressure transducer is affected by barometric pressure as well as temperature. Calibration of
the zero pressure offset is required to compensate for shifting output due to these factors.
Normal calibration will be performed when sump temperature is above 50 degrees F, or in the
absence of sump temperature data, after the first 10 minutes of vehicle operation. Calibration of the
pressure transducer offset occurs each time the output shaft speed falls below 200 RPM.
Calibration shall be repeated each 3 seconds the output shaft speed is below 200 RPM. A 0.5
second pulse of 95% duty cycle is applied to the governor pressure solenoid valve and the
transducer output is read during this pulse. Averaging of the transducer signal is necessary to
reject electrical noise.
Under cold conditions (below 50 degrees F sump), the governor pressure solenoid valve response
may be too slow to guarantee 0 psi during the 0.5 second calibration pulse. Calibration pulses are
continued during this period, however the transducer output valves are discarded. Transducer
offset must be read at key-on, under conditions which promote a stable reading. This value is
retained and becomes the offset during the "cold" period of operation.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SOLENOID VALVE
The inlet side of the solenoid valve is exposed to normal transmission line pressure. The outlet side
of the valve leads to the valve body governor circuit.
The solenoid valve regulates line pressure to produce governor pressure. The average current
supplied to the solenoid controls governor pressure. One amp current produces zero kPa/psi
governor pressure. Zero amps sets the maximum governor pressure.
The powertrain control module (PCM) turns on the trans control relay which supplies electrical
power to the solenoid valve. Operating voltage is 12 volts (DC). The PCM controls the ground side
of the solenoid using the governor pressure solenoid control circuit.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE SENSOR
The sensor output signal provides the necessary feedback to the PCM. This feedback is needed to
adequately control governor pressure.
GOVERNOR BODY AND TRANSFER PLATE
The transfer plate channels line pressure to the solenoid valve through the governor body. It also
channels governor pressure from the solenoid valve to the governor circuit. It is the solenoid valve
that develops the necessary governor pressure.
GOVERNOR PRESSURE CURVES
LOW TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE
When the transmission fluid is cold the conventional governor can delay shifts, resulting in higher
than normal shift speeds and harsh shifts. The electronically controlled low temperature governor
pressure curve is higher than normal to make the transmission shift at normal speeds and sooner.
The PCM uses a temperature sensor in the transmission oil sump to determine when low
temperature governor pressure is needed.
NORMAL OPERATION
Normal operation is refined through the increased computing power of the PCM and through
access to data on engine operating conditions provided by the PCM that were not available with
the previous stand-alone electronic module. This facilitated the development of a load adaptive
shift strategy - the ability to alter the shift schedule in response to vehicle load condition. One
manifestation of this capability is grade "hunting" prevention - the ability of the transmission logic to
delay an upshift on a grade if the engine does not have sufficient power to maintain speed in the
higher gear. The 3-2 downshift and the potential for hunting between gears occurs with a heavily
loaded vehicle or on steep grades. When hunting occurs, it is very objectionable because shifts are
frequent and accompanied by large changes in noise and acceleration.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE OPERATION
In wide-open throttle (WOT) mode, adaptive memory in the PCM assures that up-shifts occur at the
preprogrammed optimum speed. WOT operation is determined from the throttle position sensor,
which is also a part of the emission control system. The initial setting for the WOT upshift is below
the optimum engine speed. As WOT shifts are repeated, the PCM learns the time required to
complete the shifts by comparing the engine speed when the shifts occur to the optimum speed.
After each shift, the PCM adjusts the shift point until the optimum speed is reached. The PCM also
considers vehicle loading, grade and engine performance changes due to high altitude in
determining when to make WOT shifts. It does this by measuring vehicle and engine acceleration
and then factoring in the shift time.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7887
TRANSFER CASE LOW RANGE OPERATION
On four-wheel drive vehicles operating in low range, the engine can accelerate to its peak more
rapidly than in Normal range, resulting in delayed shifts and undesirable engine "flare." The low
range governor pressure curve is also higher than normal to initiate upshifts sooner. The PCM
compares electronic vehicle speed signal used by the speedometer to the transmission output
shaft speed signal to determine when the transfer case is in low range.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An overdrive off indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
not equipped with an optional overdrive automatic transmission, this indicator is electronically
disabled. This indicator is located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to the right of the
coolant temperature gauge.
The overdrive off indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text O/D OFF in the opaque layer
of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the
translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
When the exterior lighting is turned ON, the illumination intensity of the overdrive off indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The overdrive off indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The overdrive off indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the overdrive-OFF
position of the tow/haul switch has been selected, disabling the electronically controlled overdrive
feature of the automatic transmission. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data
bus.
The overdrive off indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the overdrive off indicator for the following reasons:
- Overdrive Off Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
overdrive off indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the overdrive-OFF position
of the tow/haul switch has been selected, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the PCM, or until the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the overdrive off indicator will
be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the tow/haul switch to determine the proper outputs to the automatic
transmission. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission control system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to overdrive off indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

DESCRIPTION
A transmission over-temperature indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this indicator is

the instrument cluster overlay.
The transmission over-temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for Transmission Temperature in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being
clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the
opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The transmission over-temperature indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
transmission fluid temperature is excessive, which may lead to accelerated transmission
component wear or failure. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster
circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The transmission over-temperature indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by
the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the transmission over-temperature indicator for the
following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the transmission
over-temperature indicator is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Trans Over-Temp Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
trans over-temp indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the transmission fluid
temperature is 135 °C (275 °F) or higher, the indicator will be illuminated and a single chime tone is
sounded. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from
the PCM, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime
tone feature will only repeat during the same ignition cycle if the indicator is cycled OFF and then
ON again by the appropriate lamp-ON and lamp-OFF messages from the PCM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the transmission
over-temperature indicator will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the
test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the transmission temperature sensor to determine the transmission
operating condition. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If
the instrument cluster illuminates the transmission over-temperature indicator due to a high
transmission oil temperature condition, it may indicate that the transmission or the transmission
cooling system are being overloaded, or that they require service. For further diagnosis of the
transmission over-temperature indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED,
Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission temperature sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data
bus or the electronic communication related to transmission over-temperature indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

the lower edge of the speedometer dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD
prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
The gear selector indicator displays the following characters from left to right: P, R, N, D, 2, and 1.
Each character appears in a blue-green color and at the same lighting level as the odometer
information. Respectively, these characters represent the PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,
second gear, and first gear positions of the transmission gear selector lever on the steering
column. The indicator illuminates a rectangular box around the character that represents the
currently selected lever position.
During daylight hours (exterior lamps are OFF) the gear selector indicator is illuminated at full
brightness for clear visibility. At night (exterior lamps are ON), the indicator lighting level is adjusted
with the other cluster general illumination lamps using the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the
headlamp switch. However, a PARADE mode position of the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel
allows the indicator to be illuminated at full brightness if the exterior lamps are turned ON during
daylight hours.
The gear selector indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD unit in the instrument cluster.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The electronic gear selector indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the transmission
gear that has been selected with the automatic transmission gear selector lever. This indicator is
controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming. The cluster
circuitry automatically configures itself for the proper transmission type based upon the hard wired
transmission range sensor mux circuit input to the cluster.
The gear selector indicator information is displayed by the odometer/trip odometer Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board, and
the VFD will not display the gear selector indicator information after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Each time the cluster is disconnected from battery current for more than about
five minutes, it must configure itself for the automatic transmission type that is in the vehicle once it
is reconnected to battery current. The instrument cluster circuitry configures the gear selector
indicator based upon the following inputs from the transmission range sensor:
- Open Circuit - If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission and the transmission
range sensor mux circuit is open, the cluster circuitry controls the gear selector indicator display
based upon an electronic selected gear message received from the Transmission Control Module
(TCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. If the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS)
mux circuit is open and no electronic selected gear messages are received from the TCM within
two seconds, the instrument cluster circuitry will not display any gear selector position until the
condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Resolved Circuit - If the transmission range sensor mux circuit is resolved, the cluster circuitry
controls the gear selector indicator display based upon the resistance value of the hard wired input
from the TRS. If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission with a TRS input and
detects a short to ground or an open in the TRS mux input, the instrument cluster circuitry will not
display any gear selector position in the VFD. The VFD display for the short-to-ground and open
circuit conditions will continue until the condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the odometer/trip odometer
VFD will display all of its characters at once, then step through each character segment individually
during the VFD portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the VFD and the cluster control
circuitry.
On vehicles with a TCM, the TCM continually monitors the TRS, then sends the proper message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). On vehicles without a TCM, the EMIC continually monitors the hard wired TRS
multiplexed input. On vehicles with a TCM, for proper diagnosis of the TRS, the TCM, the EMIC,
the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to gear selector indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An overdrive off indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
not equipped with an optional overdrive automatic transmission, this indicator is electronically
disabled. This indicator is located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to the right of the
coolant temperature gauge.
The overdrive off indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text O/D OFF in the opaque layer
of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the
translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
When the exterior lighting is turned ON, the illumination intensity of the overdrive off indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The overdrive off indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The overdrive off indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the overdrive-OFF
position of the tow/haul switch has been selected, disabling the electronically controlled overdrive
feature of the automatic transmission. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data
bus.
The overdrive off indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the overdrive off indicator for the following reasons:
- Overdrive Off Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
overdrive off indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the overdrive-OFF position
of the tow/haul switch has been selected, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the PCM, or until the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the overdrive off indicator will
be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the tow/haul switch to determine the proper outputs to the automatic
transmission. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission control system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to overdrive off indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

NUMBER: 21-019-07
GROUP: Transmission
DATE: November 14, 2007
THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

DESCRIPTION
On gasoline vehicles the Transmission Control Module (TCM) (2) may be sub-module within the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (3).
Vehicles equipped 68RFE transmission and a 6.7L Diesel engine, the TCM is housed in the NGC4
controller utilizing only the C1 and C4 connectors (TCM only). The controller is located at the rear
of the engine compartment, near the right inner fender.

Control Module: Description and Operation Transmission Control Module - Operation
OPERATION
RLE and RFE TRANSMISSIONS
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) controls all electronic operations of the transmission. The
TCM receives information regarding vehicle operation from both direct and indirect inputs, and
selects the operational mode of the transmission. Direct inputs are hard wired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs are shared with the TCM via the vehicle communication
bus.
Some examples of direct inputs to the TCM are:
- Battery (B+) voltage
- Ignition "ON" voltage
- Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+) (if equipped)
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Transmission Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Shaft Speed Sensor
- Output Shaft Speed Sensor
- Line Pressure Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Target Idle
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Ambient/Battery Temperature
- Scan Tool Communication
Based on the information received from these various inputs, the TCM determines the appropriate
shift schedule and shift points, depending on the present operating conditions and driver demand.
This is possible through the control of various direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of TCM direct outputs are:
- Transmission Control Relay
- Solenoids
- Torque Reduction Request
Some examples of TCM indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM)
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN)
In addition to monitoring inputs and controlling outputs, the TCM has other important
responsibilities and functions:
- Storing and maintaining Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI)
- Storing and selecting appropriate Shift Schedules
- System self-diagnostics
- Diagnostic capabilities (with scan tool)
NOTE: If the TCM has been replaced, the "Quick Learn Procedure" must be performed. See:
Transmission Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning/Transmission
Control Module/TCM Quick Learn
BATTERY FEED
A fused, direct battery feed to the TCM is used for continuous power. This battery voltage is
necessary to retain memory in the TCM. When the battery (B+) is disconnected, this memory is
lost. When the battery (B+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the TCM and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
CLUTCH VOLUME INDEXES (CVI)

> Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control Module - Description
> Page 8023
An important function of the TCM is to monitor Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI). CVIs represent the
volume of fluid needed to compress a clutch pack.
The TCM monitors gear ratio changes by monitoring the Input and Output Speed Sensors. The
Input, or Turbine Speed Sensor sends an electrical signal to the TCM that represents input shaft
rpm. The Output Speed Sensor provides the TCM with output shaft speed information.
By comparing the two inputs, the TCM can determine transmission gear position. This is important
to the CVI calculation because the TCM determines CVIs by monitoring how long it takes for a gear
change to occur.
Gear ratios can be determined by using the Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sensor
values in the "Monitors" display. Gear ratio can be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor
value by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000 rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the TCM can determine that the gear ratio is 2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio
changes to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied and released. By monitoring the
length of time it takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift request, the TCM can determine
the volume of fluid used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the volume of fluid need to apply the element
increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the input clutch assembly can cause inadequate or
out-of-range element volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed Sensors and wiring can cause
these conditions. The following charts identifies the appropriate clutch volumes and when they are
monitored/updated:

SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the TCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift lever position
- Throttle position
- Engine load
- Fluid temperature
- Software level
As driving conditions change, the TCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the
following chart to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Page 8047
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The TCM utilizes a closed-loop system to control transmission line pressure. The system contains
a variable force style solenoid, the Pressure Control Solenoid, which is part of the pressure switch
assembly. The solenoid is duty cycle controlled by the TCM to vent the unnecessary line pressure
supplied by the oil pump back to the pump inlet. The system contains a Line Pressure Sensor,
which is a direct input to the TCM. The line pressure sensor monitors the transmission line
pressure and completes the feedback loop to the TCM. The TCM uses this information to adjust its
control of the pressure control solenoid to achieve the desired line pressure.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The TCM calculates the desired line pressure based upon inputs from the transmission and engine.
The TCM calculates the torque input to the transmission and uses that information as the primary
input to the calculation. The line pressure is set to a predetermined value during shifts, to ensure
consistent shift quality. During all other operation, the desired line pressure value is adjusted based
on torque level and other transmission requirements.

Overdrive Switch: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - OVERDRIVE ELECTRICAL CONTROLS
The tow/haul overdrive off switch, valve body solenoid, case connectors and related wiring can all
be tested with a 12 volt test lamp or a volt/ohmmeter. Check continuity of each component when
diagnosis indicates this is necessary.
Switch and solenoid continuity should be checked whenever the transmission fails to shift into
fourth gear range.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 2nd and 3rd gear limp-in operation.
The solenoids receive electrical power from the Transmission Control Relay through a single wire.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and 545RFE
PRESSURE SWITCH STATES:
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate AC
signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case and are
considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of
the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil, an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an AC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the park gear teeth. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 3rd gear and reverse limp-in operation.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 2nd and 3rd gear limp-in operation.
The solenoids receive electrical power from the Transmission Control Relay through a single wire.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and 545RFE
PRESSURE SWITCH STATES:
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transmission over-temperature indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this indicator is
electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
the instrument cluster overlay.
The transmission over-temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for Transmission Temperature in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being
clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the
opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer
layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The transmission over-temperature indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The transmission over-temperature indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
transmission fluid temperature is excessive, which may lead to accelerated transmission
component wear or failure. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster
circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The transmission over-temperature indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by
the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the transmission over-temperature indicator for the
following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the transmission
over-temperature indicator is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Trans Over-Temp Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
trans over-temp indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the transmission fluid
temperature is 135 °C (275 °F) or higher, the indicator will be illuminated and a single chime tone is
sounded. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from
the PCM, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime
tone feature will only repeat during the same ignition cycle if the indicator is cycled OFF and then
ON again by the appropriate lamp-ON and lamp-OFF messages from the PCM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the transmission
over-temperature indicator will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the
test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the transmission temperature sensor to determine the transmission
operating condition. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If
the instrument cluster illuminates the transmission over-temperature indicator due to a high
transmission oil temperature condition, it may indicate that the transmission or the transmission
cooling system are being overloaded, or that they require service. For further diagnosis of the
transmission over-temperature indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED,
Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission temperature sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data
bus or the electronic communication related to transmission over-temperature indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
On vehicles equipped with a Cummins diesel engine, the transmission throttle valve cable has
been replace by the transmission throttle valve actuator (TTVA). The TTVA consists of an electric
DC motor, two potentiometers, and a gear drive system. The TTVA is mechanically connected to
the transmission throttle valve in the valve body by the "D" shaped opening in the bottom of the
TTVA shaft. Changes in the TTVA position are therefore transferred to the throttle valve and cause
changes in the transmission throttle pressure.

Throttle Valve Solenoid: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENT
The Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA) does not require any mechanical adjustments.
All changes in throttle valve position are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The TTVA does require an initialization period after the actuator has been removed or replaced.
After the actuator has been removed or replaced, move the ignition to the ON position for thirty (30)
seconds. This will allow the ECM sufficient time to perform the internal calibration procedures to
learn the TTVA's current "zero" position. Once this is done, check the ECM for diagnostic trouble
codes (DTCs). If no DTCs are set relating to the TTVA, the TTVA is fully calibrated and ready for
use.

Throttle Valve Cable/Linkage: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
Transmission throttle valve cable (1) adjustment is extremely important to proper operation. This
adjustment positions the throttle valve, which controls shift speed, quality, and part-throttle
downshift sensitivity.
If cable setting is too loose, early shifts and slippage between shifts may occur. If the setting is too
tight, shifts may be delayed and part throttle downshifts may be very sensitive.
The transmission throttle valve is operated by a cam on the throttle lever. The throttle lever is
operated by an adjustable cable (3). The cable is attached to an arm mounted on the throttle lever
shaft. A retaining clip (2) at the engine-end of the cable is removed to provide for cable adjustment.
The retaining clip is then installed back onto the throttle valve cable to lock in the adjustment.

Throttle Valve Cable/Linkage: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS - THROTTLE VALVE CABLE
A correctly adjusted throttle valve cable (1) will cause the throttle lever on the transmission to move
simultaneously with the throttle body lever (3) from the idle position. Proper adjustment will allow
simultaneous movement without causing the transmission throttle lever to either move ahead of, or
lag behind the lever on the throttle body.
ADJUSTMENT VERIFICATION
1. Turn ignition key to OFF position. 2. Remove air cleaner. 3. Verify that lever on throttle body is at
curb idle position. Then verify that the transmission throttle lever is also at idle (fully forward)
position.

4. Slide cable off attachment stud on throttle body lever. 5. Compare position (B) of cable end to
attachment stud on throttle body lever:
- Cable end and attachment stud should be aligned (or centered on one another) to within 1 mm
(0.039 in.) in either direction (B).
- If cable end and attachment stud are misaligned (off center), cable will have to be adjusted as
described in Throttle Valve Cable Adjustment procedure.
6. Reconnect cable end to attachment stud. Then with aid of a helper, observe movement of
transmission throttle lever and lever on throttle body.
- If both levers move simultaneously from idle to half-throttle and back to idle position, adjustment is
correct.
- If transmission throttle lever moves ahead of, or lags behind throttle body lever, cable adjustment
will be necessary. Or, if throttle body lever prevents transmission lever from returning to closed
position, cable adjustment will be necessary.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF position. 2. Remove air cleaner if necessary. 3. Disconnect cable
end (3) from attachment stud on throttle lever (1). Carefully slide cable off stud. Do not pry or pull
cable off. 4. Verify that transmission throttle lever is in fully closed position. Then be sure lever on
throttle body is at curb idle position. 5. Pry the T.V. cable lock (A) into the UP position. This will
unlock the cable and allow for readjustment. 6. Apply just enough tension on the T.V. cable (B) to
remove any slack in the cable. Pulling too tight will cause the T.V. lever on the
transmission to move out of its idle position, which will result in an incorrect T.V. cable adjustment.
Slide the sheath of the T.V. cable (D) back and forth until the centerlines of the T.V. cable end (B)
and the throttle bell crank lever (C) are aligned within one millimeter (1mm).
7. While holding the T.V. cable in the set position push the T.V. cable lock (A) into the down
position. This will lock the present T.V. cable
adjustment.
NOTE: Be sure that as the cable is pulled forward and centered on the throttle lever stud, the cable
housing moves smoothly with the cable. Due to the angle at which the cable housing enters the
spring housing, the cable housing may bind slightly and create an incorrect adjustment.
8. Reconnect the T.V. cable (B) to the throttle bellcrank lever (C). 9. Check cable adjustment. Verify
transmission throttle lever and lever on throttle body move simultaneously.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The torque converter is a hydraulic device that couples the engine crankshaft to the transmission.
The torque converter consists of an outer shell with an internal turbine (1), a stator (4), an
overrunning clutch, an impeller (2), and an electronically applied converter clutch (6). The converter
clutch provides reduced engine speed and greater fuel economy when engaged. Clutch
engagement also provides reduced transmission fluid temperatures. The torque converter hub
drives the transmission oil (fluid) pump.
The torque converter is a sealed, welded unit that is not repairable and is serviced as an assembly.
CAUTION: The torque converter must be replaced if a transmission failure resulted in large
amounts of metal or fiber contamination in the fluid.

The impeller is an integral part of the converter housing. The impeller consists of curved blades
placed radially along the inside of the housing on the transmission side of the converter. As the
converter housing is rotated by the engine, so is the impeller, because they are one and the same
and are the driving members of the system.

Turbine
The turbine is the output, or driven, member of the converter. The turbine is mounted within the
housing opposite the impeller, but is not attached to the housing. The input shaft is inserted
through the center of the impeller and splined into the turbine. The design of the turbine is similar to
the impeller, except the blades of the turbine are curved in the opposite direction.
STATOR
The stator assembly is mounted on a stationary shaft which is an integral part of the oil pump. The
stator contains an over-running clutch (1-4), which allows the stator to rotate only in a clockwise
direction. When the stator is locked against the over-running clutch, the torque multiplication
feature of the torque converter is operational.

The stator (1) is located between the impeller (2) and turbine (4) within the torque converter case.
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)
The TCC was installed to improve the efficiency of the torque converter that is lost to the slippage
of the fluid coupling. Although the fluid coupling provides smooth, shock-free power transfer, it is
natural for all fluid couplings to slip. If the impeller and turbine were mechanically locked together, a
zero slippage condition could be obtained. A hydraulic piston (6) was added to the turbine (5), and
a friction material (7) was added to the inside of the front cover (1) to provide this mechanical
lock-up.

Torque Converter Fluid Operation
The converter impeller (driving member), which is integral to the converter housing and bolted to
the engine drive plate, rotates at engine speed. The converter turbine (driven member), which
reacts from fluid pressure generated by the impeller, rotates and turns the transmission input shaft.
TURBINE
As the fluid that was put into motion by the impeller blades strikes the blades of the turbine, some
of the energy and rotational force is transferred into the turbine and the input shaft. This causes
both of them (turbine and input shaft) to rotate in a clockwise direction following the impeller. As the
fluid is leaving the trailing edges of the turbine's blades it continues in a "hindering" direction back
toward the impeller. If the fluid is not redirected before it strikes the impeller, it will strike the
impeller in a direction that would tend to slow it down.
STATOR
Stator Operation
Torque multiplication is achieved by locking the stator's over-running clutch to its shaft. Under stall
conditions the turbine is stationary and the oil leaving the turbine blades strikes the face of the
stator blades and tries to rotate them in a counterclockwise direction. When this happens the
overrunning

clutch of the stator locks and holds the stator from rotating. With the stator locked, the oil strikes the
stator blades (1) and is redirected into a "helping" direction before it enters the impeller. This
circulation of oil from impeller to turbine, turbine to stator, and stator to impeller, can produce a
maximum torque multiplication of about 1.75:1. As the turbine begins to match the speed of the
impeller, the fluid that was hitting the stator in such as way as to cause it to lock-up is no longer
doing so. In this condition of operation, the stator begins to free wheel and the converter acts as a
fluid coupling.
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)
The torque converter clutch is hydraulically applied or released when fluid is feed or vented from
the hydraulic circuit by the torque converter control (TCC) solenoid on the valve body. The torque
converter clutch is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The torque converter clutch
engages in FOURTH gear, and in THIRD gear under various conditions, such as when the O/D
switch is OFF, or when the vehicle is cruising on a level surface after the vehicle has warmed up.
The torque converter clutch can also be engaged in the MANUAL SECOND gear position if high
transmission temperatures are sensed by the PCM. The torque converter clutch may disengage
momentarily when an increase in engine load is sensed by the PCM, such as when the vehicle
begins to go uphill or the throttle pressure is increased.

In order to reduce heat build-up in the transmission and buffer the powertrain against torsional
vibrations, the TCM can duty cycle the L/R-CC Solenoid to achieve a smooth application of the
torque converter clutch. This function, referred to as Electronically Modulated Converter Clutch
(EMCC) can occur at various times depending on the following variables:
- Shift lever position
- Current gear range
- Transmission fluid temperature
- Engine coolant temperature
- Input speed
- Throttle angle
- Engine speed

TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)
In a standard torque converter, the impeller and turbine are rotating at about the same speed and
the stator is freewheeling, providing no torque multiplication. By applying the turbine's piston and
friction material to the front cover, a total converter engagement can be obtained. The result of this
engagement is a direct 1:1 mechanical link between the engine and the transmission.
The clutch can be engaged in all gear ranges except first depending on the Tow/Haul and ERS
status. In normal operation, the clutch will engage after the shift to fourth gear. If the Tow/Haul
mode is enabled, the clutch will engage after the shift to third (direct) gear.
The TCM controls the torque converter clutch via the L/R-CC Solenoid. There are four TCC
operational modes:

- No EMCC
- Partial EMCC
- Full EMCC
- Gradual EMCC Release
NO EMCC
Under No EMCC conditions, the L/R Solenoid is OFF. There are several conditions that can result
in NO EMCC operations. No EMCC can be initiated due to a fault in the transmission or because
the TCM does not see the need for EMCC under current driving conditions.
PARTIAL EMCC
Partial EMCC operation modulates the L/R Solenoid (duty cycle) to obtain partial torque converter
clutch application. Partial EMCC operation is maintained until Full EMCC is called for and actuated.
During Partial EMCC some slip does occur. Partial EMCC will usually occur at low speeds, low
load and light throttle situations.
FULL EMCC
During Full EMCC operation, the TCM increases the L/R Solenoid duty cycle to full ON after Partial
EMCC control brings the engine speed within the desired slip range of transmission input speed
relative to engine rpm.
GRADUAL EMCC RELEASE
This operation is to soften the change from Full or Partial EMCC to No EMCC. This is done at
mid-throttle by slowly decreasing the L/R Solenoid duty cycle.

converter housing is rotated by the engine, so is the impeller, because they are one and the same
and are the driving members of the system.

Turbine
The turbine is the output, or driven, member of the converter. The turbine is mounted within the
housing opposite the impeller, but is not attached to the housing. The input shaft is inserted
through the center of the impeller and splined into the turbine. The design of the turbine is similar to
the impeller, except the blades of the turbine are curved in the opposite direction.
STATOR

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8369
The stator assembly is mounted on a stationary shaft which is an integral part of the oil pump. The
stator (1) is located between the impeller (2) and the turbine (4) within the torque converter case.
The stator contains an one-way clutch (1-4), which allows the stator to rotate only in a clockwise
direction. When the stator is locked against the over-running clutch, the torque multiplication
feature of the torque converter is operational.
Torque Converter Solenoid
In order to reduce heat build-up in the transmission and buffer the powertrain against torsional
vibrations, the TCM can duty cycle the Torque Converter Solenoid to achieve a smooth application
of the torque converter clutch. This function can occur at various times depending on the following
variables:
- Shift lever position
- Current gear range
- Transmission fluid temperature
- Engine coolant temperature
- Input speed
- Throttle angle
- Engine speed
Operation
OPERATION
The torque converter transmits engine torque to the transmission. When it is not locked up, it
transmits the torque by means of oil. When it is locked up, it transmits the torque by means of the
lockup piston.
The lockup damper is designed to soften the impact as the torque converter locks up.
The torque converter is a 3-element, single-stage, 2-phase type. The term 'single-stage' indicates
that there is 1 turbine runner (output element). The term '2-phase' indicates that the mechanism
works as a torque converter when the turbine runner is turning slowly relative to the pump impeller
and as a fluid coupling when the turbine runner is turning quickly relative to the pump impeller.

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8370
The torque converter activation pressure is not supplied between the converter front cover and
lockup piston via passage (3). The lockup clutch (1) and the plate (2) are therefore disengaged and
the lockup function is inactive.
TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKED UP
The torque converter activation pressure is supplied between the converter front cover and lockup
piston via passage (3). The lockup clutch (1) and the plate (2) are therefore engaged and the
lockup function is active.
TURBINE
As the fluid that was put into motion by the impeller blades strikes the blades of the turbine, some
of the energy and rotational force is transferred into the turbine and the input shaft. This causes
both of them (turbine and input shaft) to rotate in a clockwise direction following the impeller. As the
fluid is leaving the trailing edges of the turbine's blades it continues in a "hindering" direction back
toward the impeller. If the fluid is not redirected before it strikes the impeller, it will strike the
impeller in such a direction that it would tend to slow it down.
STATOR
Torque multiplication is achieved by locking the stator's one-way clutch to its shaft. Under stall
conditions (the turbine is stationary), the oil leaving the turbine blades strikes the face of the stator
blades and tries to rotate them in a counterclockwise direction. When this happens the one-way
clutch of the stator locks and holds the stator from rotating. With the stator locked, the oil strikes the
stator blades and is redirected into a "helping" direction before it enters the impeller. This
circulation of oil from impeller to turbine, turbine to stator, and stator to impeller, can produce a
maximum torque multiplication of about 2.4:1. As the turbine begins to match the speed of the
impeller, the fluid that was hitting the stator in such as way as to cause it to lock-up is no longer
doing so. In this condition of operation, the stator begins to free wheel and the converter acts as a
fluid coupling.

Stator Operation
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)
In a standard torque converter, the impeller and turbine are rotating at about the same speed and
the stator is freewheeling, providing no torque multiplication. By applying the turbine's piston and
friction material to the front cover, a total converter engagement can be obtained. The result of this
engagement is a direct 1:1 mechanical link between the engine and the transmission.
The clutch can be engaged in second, third, fourth, fifth and, sixth gear ranges.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

System Relay, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8403
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An electronic automatic transmission gear selector indicator is standard factory-installed equipment
on this vehicle. However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this
indicator is electronically disabled. The gear selector indicator information is displayed in an
electronic, blue-green Vacuum-Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. This VFD unit is soldered onto the
cluster electronic circuit board and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located on
the lower edge of the speedometer dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD
prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
The gear selector indicator displays the following characters from left to right: P, R, N, D, 2, and 1.
Each character appears in a blue-green color and at the same lighting level as the odometer
information. Respectively, these characters represent the PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,
second gear, and first gear positions of the transmission gear selector lever on the steering
column. The indicator illuminates a rectangular box around the character that represents the
currently selected lever position.
During daylight hours (exterior lamps are OFF) the gear selector indicator is illuminated at full
brightness for clear visibility. At night (exterior lamps are ON), the indicator lighting level is adjusted
with the other cluster general illumination lamps using the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the
headlamp switch. However, a PARADE mode position of the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel
allows the indicator to be illuminated at full brightness if the exterior lamps are turned ON during
daylight hours.
The gear selector indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD unit in the instrument cluster.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The electronic gear selector indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the transmission
gear that has been selected with the automatic transmission gear selector lever. This indicator is
controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming. The cluster
circuitry automatically configures itself for the proper transmission type based upon the hard wired
transmission range sensor mux circuit input to the cluster.
The gear selector indicator information is displayed by the odometer/trip odometer Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board, and
the VFD will not display the gear selector indicator information after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Each time the cluster is disconnected from battery current for more than about
five minutes, it must configure itself for the automatic transmission type that is in the vehicle once it
is reconnected to battery current. The instrument cluster circuitry configures the gear selector
indicator based upon the following inputs from the transmission range sensor:
- Open Circuit - If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission and the transmission
range sensor mux circuit is open, the cluster circuitry controls the gear selector indicator display
based upon an electronic selected gear message received from the Transmission Control Module
(TCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. If the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS)
mux circuit is open and no electronic selected gear messages are received from the TCM within
two seconds, the instrument cluster circuitry will not display any gear selector position until the
condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Resolved Circuit - If the transmission range sensor mux circuit is resolved, the cluster circuitry
controls the gear selector indicator display based upon the resistance value of the hard wired input
from the TRS. If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission with a TRS input and
detects a short to ground or an open in the TRS mux input, the instrument cluster circuitry will not
display any gear selector position in the VFD. The VFD display for the short-to-ground and open
circuit conditions will continue until the condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the odometer/trip odometer
VFD will display all of its characters at once, then step through each character segment individually
during the VFD portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the VFD and the cluster control
circuitry.
On vehicles with a TCM, the TCM continually monitors the TRS, then sends the proper message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). On vehicles without a TCM, the EMIC continually monitors the hard wired TRS
multiplexed input. On vehicles with a TCM, for proper diagnosis of the TRS, the TCM, the EMIC,
the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to gear selector indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

DESCRIPTION
The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate AC
signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case and are
considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of
the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil, an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an AC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the park gear teeth. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

OPERATION
NOTE: Refer to the Hydraulic Schematics for a visual aid in determining valve location, operation
and design.
CHECK BALLS
REGULATOR VALVE
Regulator Valve in Park Position
The pressure regulator valve is needed to control the hydraulic pressure within the system and
reduce the amount of heat produced in the fluid. The pressure regulator valve is located in the
valve body near the manual valve. The pressure regulator valve train controls the maximum
pressure in the lines by metering the dumping of fluid back into the sump. Regulated pressure is
referred to as "line pressure."
The regulator valve has a spring on one end that pushes the valve to the left. This closes a dump
(vent) that is used to lower pressure. The closing of the dump will cause the oil pressure to
increase. Oil pressure on the opposite end of the valve pushes the valve to the right, opening the
dump and lowering oil pressure. The result is spring pressure working against oil pressure to
maintain the oil at specific pressures. With the engine running, fluid flows from the pump to the
pressure regulator valve, manual valve, and the interconnected circuits. As fluid is sent through
passages to the regulator valve, the pressure pushes the valve to the right against the large spring.
It is also sent to the reaction areas on the left side of the throttle pressure plug and the line
pressure plug. With the gear selector in the PARK position, fluid recirculates through the regulator
and manual valves back to the sump.

Regulator Valve in Neutral Position
Meanwhile, the torque converter is filled slowly. In all other gear positions, fluid flows between two
right side lands to the switch valve and torque converter. At low pump speeds, the flow is controlled
by the pressure valve groove to reduce pressure to the torque converter. After the torque converter
and switch valve fill with fluid, the switch valve becomes the controlling metering device for torque
converter pressure. The regulator valve then begins to control the line pressure for the other
transmission circuits. The balance of the fluid pressure pushing the valve to the right and the spring
pressure pushing to the left determines the size of the metering passage at land #2 (land #1 being
at the far right of the valve in the diagram). As fluid leaks past the land, it moves into a groove
connected to the filter or sump. As the land meters the fluid to the sump, it causes the pressure to
reduce and the spring decreases the size of the metering passage. When the size of the metering
passage is reduced, the pressure rises again and the size of the land is increased again. Pressure
is regulated by this constant balance of hydraulic and spring pressure.
Regulator Valve in Drive Position
The metering at land #2 establishes the line pressure throughout the transmission. It is varied
according to changes in throttle position and the transmission's internal condition within a range of
57-94 psi (except in REVERSE).
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8576
Regulator Valve in Reverse Position
The regulated line pressure in REVERSE is held at much higher pressures than in the other gear
positions: 145-280 psi. The higher pressure for REVERSE is achieved by the manual valve
blocking the supply of line pressure to the reaction area left of land #4. With this pressure blocked,
there is less area for pressure to act on to balance the force of the spring on the right. This allows
line pressure to push the valve train to the right, reducing the amount of fluid returned to the
pump's inlet, increasing line pressure.
KICKDOWN VALVE
Kickdown Valve - Wide Open Throttle
When the throttle valve is as far over to the left as it can go, the maximum line pressure possible
will enter the throttle pressure circuit. In this case, throttle pressure will equal line pressure. With
the kickdown valve pushed into the bore as far as it will go, fluid initially flows through the annular
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8577
groove of the 2-3 shift valve (which will be in the direct drive position to the right).
After passing the annular groove, the fluid is routed to the spring end of the 2-3 shift valve. Fluid
pressure reacting on the area of land #1 overcomes governor pressure, downshifting the 2-3 shift
valve into the kickdown, or second gear stage of operation. The valve is held in the kickdown
position by throttle pressure routed from a seated check ball (#2). Again, if vehicle speed is low
enough, throttle pressure will also push the 1-2 shift valve left to seat its governor plug, and
downshift to drive breakaway.
KICKDOWN LIMIT VALVE
Kickdown Limit Valve - Low Speeds
The purpose of the limit valve is to prevent a 3-2 downshift at higher speeds when a part-throttle
downshift is not desirable. At these higher speeds only a full throttle 3-2 downshift will occur. At low
road speeds the limit valve does not come into play and does not affect the downshifts.
Kickdown Limit Valve - High Speeds
As the vehicle's speed increases, the governor pressure also increases. The increased governor
pressure acts on the reaction area of the bottom land of the limit valve overcoming the spring force
trying to push the valve toward the bottom of its bore. This pushes the valve upward against the
spring and bottoms the valve against the top of the housing. With the valve bottomed against the
housing, the throttle pressure supplied to the valve will be closed off by the bottom land of the limit
valve. When the supply of throttle pressure has been shut off, the 3-2 part throttle downshift plug
becomes inoperative, because no pressure is acting on its reaction area.
1-2 SHIFT VALVE
1-2 Shift Valve - Before Shift
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8578
The 1-2 shift valve assembly, or mechanism, consists of: the 1-2 shift valve, governor plug, and a
spring on the end of the valve. After the manual valve has been placed into a forward gear range,
line pressure is directed to the 1-2 shift valve. As the throttle is depressed, throttle pressure is
applied to the right side of the 1-2 shift valve assembly. With throttle pressure applied to the right
side of the valve, there is now both spring pressure and throttle pressure acting on the valve,
holding it against the governor plug. As the vehicle begins to move and build speed, governor
pressure is created and is applied to the left of the valve at the governor plug.
1-2 Shift Valve - After Shift
When governor pressure builds to a point where it can overcome the combined force of the spring
and throttle pressure on the other side of the valve, the valve will begin to move over to the right.
As the valve moves to the right, the middle land of the valve will close off the circuit supplying the
throttle pressure to the right side of the valve. When the throttle pressure is closed off, the valve will
move even farther to the right, allowing line pressure to enter another circuit and energize the front
servo, applying the front band.
The governor plug serves a dual purpose:
- It allows the shift valves to move either left or right, allowing both upshifts and downshifts.
- When in a manual selection position, it will be hydraulically "blocked" into position so no upshift
can occur.
The physical blocking of the upshift while in the manual "1" position is accomplished by the
directing of line pressure between both lands of the governor plug. The line pressure reacts against
the larger land of the plug, pushing the plug back against the end plate overcoming governor
pressure. With the combination of the line pressure and spring pressure, the valve cannot move,
preventing any upshift.
1-2 SHIFT CONTROL VALVE
1-2 Shift Control Valve
It contains a valve with four lands and a spring. It is used as both a "relay" and "balanced" valve.
The valve has two specific operations:
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8579
- Aid in quality of the 1-2 upshift.
- Aid in the quality and timing of the 3-2 kickdown ranges.
When the manual valve is set to the DRIVE position and the transmission is in the first or second
gear range, 1-2 shift control or "modulated throttle pressure" is supplied to the middle of the
accumulator piston by the 1-2 shift control valve. During the 1-2 upshift, this pressure is used to
control the kickdown servo apply pressure that is needed to apply the kickdown and accumulator
pistons. Thus, the 1-2 shift point is "cushioned" and the quality is improved. During a WOT
kickdown, kickdown pressure is applied between the kickdown valve and the 1-2 shift control valve.
This additional pressure is directed to the 1-2 shift control's spring cavity, adding to the spring load
on the valve. The result of this increased "modulated" throttle pressure is a firmer WOT upshift.
2-3 SHIFT VALVE
2-3 Shift Valve - Before Shift
The 2-3 shift valve mechanism consists of the 2-3 shift valve, governor plug and spring, and a
throttle plug. After the 1-2 shift valve has completed its operation and applied the front band, line
pressure is directed to the 2-3 shift valve through the connecting passages from the 1-2 shift valve.
The line pressure will then dead-end at land #2 until the 2-3 valve is ready to make its shift. Now
that the vehicle is in motion and under acceleration, there is throttle pressure being applied to the
spring side of the valve and between lands #3 and #4.
2-3 Shift Valve - After Shift
As vehicle speed increases, governor pressure increases proportionately, until it becomes great
enough to overcome the combined throttle and spring pressure on the right side of the valve. Since
the throttle pressure end of the 2-3 shift valve is larger in diameter than the 1-2 shift valve, the 2-3
shift will always happen at a greater speed than the 1-2 shift. When this happens, the governor
plug is forced against the shift valve moving it to the right. The shift valve causes land #4 to close
the passage supplying throttle pressure to the 2-3 shift valve. Without throttle pressure present in
the circuit now, the
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8580
governor plug will push the valve over far enough to bottom the valve in its bore. This allows land
#2 to direct line pressure to the front clutch.
After the shift, line pressure is directed to the release side of the kickdown servo. This releases the
front band and applies the front clutch, shifting into third gear or direct drive. The rear clutch
remains applied, as it has been in the other gears. During a manual "1" or manual "2" gear
selection, line pressure is sent between the two lands of the 2-3 governor plug. This line pressure
at the governor plug locks the shift valve into the second gear position, preventing an upshift into
direct drive. The theory for the blocking of the valve is the same as that of the 1-2 shift valve.
If the manual "2" or manual "1" gear position is selected from the drive position, the PCM will
control the timing of the downshift by targeting for a high governor pressure. When a safe vehicle
speed is reached, the PCM will switch to its normal control governor curve and the downshift will
occur.
3-4 SHIFT VALVE
3-4 Shift Valve Before Shift
The PCM energizes the overdrive solenoid during the 3-4 upshift. This causes the solenoid check
ball to close the vent port allowing line pressure from the 2-3 shift valve to act directly on the 3-4
upshift valve.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8581
3-4 Shift Valve After Shift
Line pressure on the 3-4 shift valve overcomes valve spring pressure moving the valve to the
upshift position. This action exposes the feed passages to the 3-4 timing valve, 3-4 quick fill valve,
3-4 accumulator, and ultimately to the overdrive piston.
3-4 TIMING VALVE
3-4 Shift Valve After Shift
The 3-4 timing valve is moved by line pressure coming through the 3-4 shift valve or the converter
clutch valve.

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8582
3-4 Shift Valve Before Shift
After the shift, the timing valve holds the 2-3 shift valve in an upshift position. The purpose is to
prevent the 2-3 valve from downshifting while either the overdrive clutch or converter clutch is
applied.
3-4 QUICK FILL VALVE
3-4 Shift Valve Before Shift
The 3-4 quick fill valve provides faster engagement of the overdrive clutch during 3-4 upshifts. The
valve temporarily bypasses the clutch piston feed orifice at the start of a 3-4 upshift.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8583
3-4 Shift Valve After Shift
This exposes a larger passage into the piston retainer resulting in a much faster clutch fill and
apply sequence. The quick fill valve does not bypass the regular clutch feed orifice throughout the
3-4 upshift. Instead, once a predetermined pressure develops within the clutch, the valve closes
the bypass. Clutch fill is then completed through the regular feed orifice.
THROTTLE VALVE
Throttle Valve
In all gear positions, the throttle valve is being supplied with line pressure. The throttle valve meters
and reduces the line pressure that now becomes throttle pressure. The throttle valve is moved by a
spring and the kickdown valve, which is mechanically connected to the throttle. The larger the
throttle opening, the higher the throttle pressure (to a maximum of line pressure). The smaller the
throttle opening, the lower the throttle pressure (to a minimum of zero at idle). As engine speed
increases, the increase in pump speed increases pump output. The increase in pressure and
volume must be regulated to maintain the balance within the transmission. To do this, throttle
pressure is routed to the reaction area on the right side of the throttle pressure plug (in the
regulator valve).
The higher engine speed and line pressure would open the vent too far and reduce line pressure
too much. Throttle pressure, which increases with engine speed (throttle opening), is used to
oppose the movement of the pressure valve to help control the metering passage at the vent. The
throttle pressure is combined with spring pressure to reduce the force of the throttle pressure plug
on the pressure valve. The larger spring at the right closes the regulator valve passage and
maintains or increases line pressure. The increased line pressure works against the reaction area
of the line pressure plug and the
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8584
reaction area left of land #3 simultaneously moves the regulator valve train to the right and controls
the metering passage.
The kickdown valve, along with the throttle valve, serve to delay upshifts until the correct vehicle
speed has been reached. It also controls downshifts upon driver demand, or increased engine
load. If these valves were not in place, the shift points would be at the same speed for all throttle
positions. The kickdown valve is actuated by a cam connected to the throttle. This is accomplished
through either a linkage or a cable. The cam forces the kickdown valve toward the throttle valve
compressing the spring between them and moving the throttle valve. As the throttle valve land
starts to uncover its port, line pressure is "metered" out into the circuits and viewed as throttle
pressure. This increased throttle pressure is metered out into the circuits it is applied to: the 1-2
and 2-3 shift valves. When the throttle pressure is high enough, a 3-2 downshift will occur. If the
vehicle speed is low enough, a 2-1 downshift will occur.
SWITCH VALVE
Switch Valve - Torque Converter Unlocked
When the transmission is in Drive Second before the TCC application occurs, the pressure
regulator valve is supplying torque converter pressure to the switch valve. The switch valve directs
this pressure through the transmission input shaft, into the converter, through the converter, back
out between the input shaft and the reaction shaft, and back up to the switch valve. From the
switch valve, the fluid pressure is directed to the transmission cooler, and lubrication pressure
returns from the cooler to lubricate different portions of the transmission.

Switch Valve - Torque Converter Locked
MANUAL VALVE
The manual valve is a relay valve. The purpose of the manual valve is to direct fluid to the correct
circuit needed for a specific gear or driving range. The manual valve, as the name implies, is
manually operated by the driver with a lever located on the side of the valve body. The valve is
connected mechanically by either a cable or linkage to the gearshift mechanism. The valve is held
in each of its positions by a spring-loaded roller or ball that engages the "roostercomb" of the
manual valve lever.
Manual Valve

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8586
Once the TCC control valve has moved to the right, line pressure is directed to the tip of the switch
valve, forcing the valve to the right. The switch valve now vents oil from the front of the piston in the
torque converter, and supplies line pressure to the (rear) apply side of the torque converter piston.
This pressure differential causes the piston to apply against the friction material, cutting off any
further flow of line pressure oil. After the switch valve is shuttled right allowing line pressure to
engage the TCC, torque converter pressure is directed past the switch valve into the transmission
cooler and lubrication circuits.
CONVERTER CLUTCH LOCK-UP VALVE
The torque converter clutch (TCC) lock-up valve controls the back (ON) side of the torque
converter clutch. When the PCM energizes the TCC solenoid to engage the converter clutch
piston, pressure is applied to the TCC lock-up valve which moves to the right and applies pressure
to the torque converter clutch.
CONVERTER CLUTCH LOCK-UP TIMING VALVE
The torque converter clutch (TCC) lock-up timing valve is there to block any 4-3 downshift until the
TCC is completely unlocked and the clutch is disengaged.
SHUTTLE VALVE
The assembly is contained in a bore in the valve body above the shift valves. When the manual
valve is positioned in the Drive range, throttle pressure acts on the throttle plug of the shuttle valve
to move it against a spring, increasing the spring force on the shuttle valve. During a part or full
throttle 1-2 upshift, the throttle plug is bottomed by throttle pressure, holding the shuttle valve to the
right against governor pressure, and opening a by-pass circuit. The shuttle valve controls the
quality of the kickdown shift by restricting the rate of fluid discharge from the front clutch and servo
release circuits. During a 3-2 kickdown, fluid discharges through the shuttle by-pass circuit. When
the shuttle valve closes the by-pass circuit, fluid discharge is restricted and controlled for the
application of the front band. During a 2-3 "lift foot" upshift, the shuttle valve by-passes the
restriction to allow full fluid flow through the by-pass groove for a faster release of the band.
BOOST VALVE
Boost Valve Before Lock-up
The boost valve provides increased fluid apply pressure to the overdrive clutch during 3-4 upshifts,
and when accelerating in fourth gear.

The Solenoid Switch Valve (SSV) controls the direction of the transmission fluid when the L/R-TCC
solenoid is energized.
The Solenoid Switch Valve controls line pressure from the LR-TCC solenoid. In 1st gear, the SSV
will be in the downshifted position, thus directing fluid to the L/R clutch circuit. In all other gears, the
solenoid switch valve will be in the upshifted position and directs the fluid into the torque converter
clutch (TCC) circuit.
When shifting into 1st gear, a special hydraulic sequence is performed to ensure SSV movement
into the downshifted position. The L/R pressure switch is monitored to confirm SSV movement. If
the movement is not confirmed (the L/R pressure switch does not close), 2nd gear is substituted for
1st. A DTC will be set after three unsuccessful attempts are made to get into 1st gear in one given
key start.
MANUAL VALVE
The manual valve is a relay valve. The purpose of the manual valve is to direct fluid to the correct
circuit needed for a specific gear or driving range. The manual valve, as the name implies, is

CLEANING
Clean the valve housings, valves, plugs, springs, transfer plate and separator plate with a standard
parts cleaning solution only. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, or any type of caustic solution.
Do not immerse any of the electrical components in cleaning solution. Clean the electrical
components by wiping them off with dry shop towels only.
Dry all except the electrical parts with compressed air. Make sure all passages are clean and free
from obstructions. Do not use rags or shop towels to dry or wipe off valve body components. Lint
from these materials can stick to valve body parts, interfere with valve operation, and clog filters
and fluid passages.

NOTE: Only the INNER accumulator seal ring actually seals the pressure in the bore. The outer
seal ring only serves to guide the piston in the bore. Gouges which do not extend past the inner
seal ring (and have no raised edges, which could damage the guide ring) are acceptable. The
machined accumulator bores often have a tiger-striped appearance. This is NORMAL and does
NOT require replacement, as long as the bores are smooth in the inner seal ring area.
Inspect all of the valve body mating surfaces for scratches, nicks, burrs, or distortion. Use a
straightedge to check surface flatness. Minor scratches may be removed with crocus cloth using
only very light pressure.
Minor distortion of a valve body mating surface may be corrected by smoothing the surface with a
sheet of crocus cloth. Position the crocus cloth on a surface plate, sheet of plate glass or equally
flat surface. If distortion is severe or any surfaces are heavily scored, the valve body will have to be
replaced.
Inspect the valves and plugs for scratches, burrs, nicks, or scores. Minor surface scratches on steel
valves and plugs can be removed with crocus cloth but do not round off the edges of the valve or
plug lands. Maintaining sharpness of these edges is vitally important. The edges prevent foreign
matter from lodging between the valves and plugs and the bore.
Inspect all the valve and plug bores in the valve body. Use a penlight to view the bore interiors.
Replace the valve body if any bores are distorted or scored. Inspect all of the valve body springs.
The springs must be free of distortion, warpage or broken coils.
Trial fit each valve and plug in its bore to check freedom of operation. When clean and dry, the
valves and plugs should drop freely into the bores.
Valve body bores do not normally change dimensionally with use. If the valve body functioned
correctly when new, it should continue to operate properly after cleaning and inspection. It should
not be necessary to replace a valve body assembly unless it is damaged in handling.
Inspect all the accumulator bores in the valve body as well as the accumulator piston seal rings,
and replace if cut or damaged. Use a penlight to view the bore interiors. Replace the valve body if
any bores are distorted or scored. Inspect all of the accumulator springs. The springs must be free
of distortion, warpage or broken coils.

Inspect all the fluid seals on the valve body. Replace any seals that are cracked, distorted, or
damaged in any way. These seals pass fluid pressure directly to the clutches. Any pressure leak at
these points, may cause transmission performance problems.
Cleaning
CLEANING
Clean the valve housings, valves, plugs, springs, and separator plates with a standard parts
cleaning solution only. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, or any type of caustic solution.
Do not immerse any of the electrical components in cleaning solution. Clean the governor solenoid
and sensor and the dual solenoid and harness assembly by wiping them off with dry shop towels
only.
Dry all except the electrical parts with compressed air. Make sure all passages are clean and free
from obstructions. Do not use rags or shop towels to dry or wipe off valve body components. Lint
from these materials can stick to valve body parts, interfere with valve operation, and clog filters
and fluid passages.
Wipe the governor pressure sensor and solenoid valve with dry, lint free shop towels only. The
O-rings on the sensor and solenoid valve are the only serviceable components. Be sure the vent
ports in the solenoid valve are open and not blocked by dirt or debris. Replace the valve and/or
sensor only when DRB scan tool diagnosis indicates this is necessary. Or, if either part has
sustained physical damage (dented, deformed, broken, etc.).
CAUTION: Do not turn the small screw at the end of the solenoid valve for any reason. Turning the
screw in either direction will ruin solenoid calibration and result in solenoid failure. In addition, the
filter on the solenoid valve is NOT serviceable. Do not try to remove the filter as this will damage
the valve housing.
Inspection
INSPECTION
Inspect the throttle and manual valve levers and shafts. Do not attempt to straighten a bent shaft or
correct a loose lever. Replace these components if worn, bent, loose or damaged in any way.
Inspect all of the valve body mating surfaces for scratches, nicks, burrs, or distortion. Use a
straightedge to check surface flatness. Minor scratches may be removed with crocus cloth using
only very light pressure.
Minor distortion of a valve body mating surface may be corrected by smoothing the surface with a
sheet of crocus cloth. Position the crocus cloth on a surface plate, sheet of plate glass or equally
flat surface. If distortion is severe or any surfaces are heavily scored, the valve body will have to be
replaced.
CAUTION: Many of the valves and plugs, such as the throttle valve, shuttle valve plug, 1-2 shift
valve and 1-2 governor plug, are made of coated aluminum. Aluminum components are identified
by the dark color of the special coating applied to the surface (or by testing with a magnet). Do not
sand aluminum valves or plugs under any circumstances. This practice could damage the special
coating causing the valves/plugs to stick and bind.

The springs must be free of distortion, warpage or broken coils.
Check the two separator plates for distortion or damage of any kind. Inspect the upper housing,
lower housing, 3-4 accumulator housing, and transfer plate carefully. Be sure all fluid passages are
clean and clear. Check condition of the upper housing and transfer plate check balls as well. The
check balls and ball seats must not be worn or damaged.
Trial fit each valve and plug in its bore to check freedom of operation. When clean and dry, the
valves and plugs should drop freely into the bores.
Valve body bores do not change dimensionally with use. If the valve body functioned correctly
when new, it will continue to operate properly after cleaning and inspection. It should not be
necessary to replace a valve body assembly unless it is damaged in handling.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

Drive/Propeller Shaft: Testing and Inspection
PROPELLER SHAFT
PROPELLER SHAFT VIBRATION
Out-of-round tires or wheels that are out of balance, will cause a low frequency vibration.
Driveline vibration can also be caused by loose or damaged engine mounts.
Propeller shaft vibration increases with vehicle speed. A vibration that occurs at a specific speed
range, is not usually caused by an out of balance propeller shaft. Defective universal joints or an
incorrect propeller shaft angle are usually the cause of such a vibration.
PROPELLER SHAFT BALANCE
If propeller shaft is suspected of being out of balance, use the following procedure.
NOTE: Indexing propeller shaft 180 degrees relative to the yoke may eliminate some vibrations.
1. Raise and support vehicle. 2. Clean all foreign material from the propeller shaft and universal
joints. 3. Inspect propeller shaft for missing balance weights, broken welds and bent areas. If
propeller shaft is bent, it must be replaced. 4. Inspect universal joints for wear and properly
installed. 5. Check propeller shaft bolt torques. 6. Remove wheels and install lug nuts to retain
brake rotors. 7. Mark and number the shaft six inches from the pinion yoke end at four positions 90
degrees apart. 8. Run and accelerate vehicle until vibration occurs. Note the intensity and speed
the vibration occurred. Stop the engine.

Shaft > Component Information > Specifications > Page 8953
9. Install a screw clamp at position (1).
10. Start engine and check vibration. If there is little or no change move the clamp to the next
positions. Repeat the vibration test.
NOTE: If there is no difference in vibration at this positions, the vibration may not be the propeller
shaft.
11. If vibration decreased, install a second clamp (1) and repeat the test.
12. If additional clamp causes an additional vibration, separate the clamps 1/2 inch (1) above and
below the mark. Repeat the vibration test. 13. Increase distance between the clamp screws (1) (2)
and repeat test, until the least amount of vibration is noticed. Bend the slack end of the clamps
so screws will not loosen.
14. If vibration remains unacceptable, repeat the procedure to the front end of the propeller shaft.
15. Install wheels and lower vehicle.

PROPELLER SHAFT ANGLE
ONE PIECE PROPELLER SHAFT
This procedure applies to front and rear propeller shafts.
NOTE: To obtain output angle (A) on the front propeller shaft equipped with a C/V joint, place
inclinometer on machined surface of the C/V joint.
1. Raise vehicle and support the axles as level as possible, allowing the wheels and propeller shaft
to turn. 2. Remove universal joint snap rings if equipped, so inclinometer base sits flat. 3. Rotate
shaft until transmission/transfer case output yoke bearing is facing downward.
NOTE: Always take measurements from front to rear and on the same side of the vehicle.
4. Place Inclinometer 7663 on yoke bearing cap or pinion flange ring parallel to the shaft. Center
bubble in sight glass and record measurement (A).
This measurement will give you the transmission yoke Output Angle (A).
5. Rotate propeller shaft 90 degrees and place Inclinometer on yoke bearing parallel to the shaft.
Center bubble in sight glass and record
measurement. This measurement can also be taken at the rear end of the shaft.

This measurement will give you the Propeller Shaft Angle (C).
6. Rotate propeller shaft 90 degrees and place inclinometer on companion flange yoke bearing
parallel to the shaft. Center bubble in sight glass and
record measurement.
This measurement will give you the pinion Companion Flange Input Angle (B).
7. Subtract smaller figure from larger (C minus A) to obtain Transmission/Transfer Case Output
Operating Angle. 8. Subtract smaller figure from larger (C minus B) to obtain axle Input Operating
Angle.
Refer to rules and example for additional information.
RULES
- Good cancellation of U-joint operating angles should be within 1 degree.
- Operating angles should be less than 3 degrees.
- Operating angles less than 10 degrees for double cardan U-joint.
- At least 1/2 of one degree continuous operating propeller shaft angle.

The standard (3) is a heavy plate bolted to the rear of the crankshaft (1). The flywheel incorporates
the ring gear (2) around the outer circumference to mesh with the starter to permit engine cranking.
The rear face of the flywheel serves as the driving member to the clutch disc.
DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL
The Dual Mass Flywheel (1) is used on the Diesel engine with G56 transmission. The flywheel
incorporates the ring gear around the outer circumference to mesh with the starter to permit engine
cranking. The primary flywheel side is bolted to an adapter plate which is bolted to the crankshaft.
The secondary flywheel side (2) serves as the driving member to the clutch disc. Internal springs
(3) are used to dampen energy. The Dual Mass Flywheel is serviced as an assembly only and
should never be taken apart.

Flywheel: Testing and Inspection
FLYWHEEL
Check flywheel (3) runout whenever misalignment is suspected. Flywheel runout should not
exceed 0.08 mm (0.003 in.). Measure runout at the outer edge of the flywheel face with a dial
indicator. Mount the indicator on a stud installed in place of one of the flywheel bolts.
Common causes of runout are:
- heat warpage
- improper machining
- incorrect bolt tightening
- improper seating on crankshaft flange shoulder
- foreign material on crankshaft flange
Flywheel machining is not recommended. The flywheel clutch surface is machined to a unique
contour and machining will negate this feature. Minor flywheel scoring can be cleaned up by hand
with 180 grit emery or with surface grinding equipment. Remove only enough material to reduce
scoring (approximately 0.001 - 0.003 in.). Heavy stock removal is not recommended. Replace the
flywheel if scoring is severe and deeper than 0.076 mm (0.003 in.). Excessive stock removal can
result in flywheel cracking or warpage after installation; it can also weaken the flywheel and
interfere with proper clutch release.
Clean the crankshaft flange before mounting the flywheel. Dirt and grease on the flange surface
may cock the flywheel causing excessive runout. Use new bolts when remounting a flywheel and
secure the bolts with Mopar(TM) Lock And Seal or equivalent. Tighten flywheel bolts to specified
torque only. Overtightening can distort the flywheel hub causing runout.
On a Dual Mass Flywheel (1) inspect all springs (2) for damage.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An overdrive off indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles
not equipped with an optional overdrive automatic transmission, this indicator is electronically
disabled. This indicator is located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to the right of the
coolant temperature gauge.
The overdrive off indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text O/D OFF in the opaque layer
of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the
translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
When the exterior lighting is turned ON, the illumination intensity of the overdrive off indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The overdrive off indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The overdrive off indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the overdrive-OFF
position of the tow/haul switch has been selected, disabling the electronically controlled overdrive
feature of the automatic transmission. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data
bus.
The overdrive off indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the overdrive off indicator for the following reasons:
- Overdrive Off Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
overdrive off indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the overdrive-OFF position
of the tow/haul switch has been selected, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the PCM, or until the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the overdrive off indicator will
be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the tow/haul switch to determine the proper outputs to the automatic
transmission. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission control system, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to overdrive off indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A transmission over-temperature indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this indicator is
electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
the instrument cluster overlay.
The transmission over-temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for Transmission Temperature in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being
clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the
opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer
layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The transmission over-temperature indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Temperature Warning Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The transmission over-temperature indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the
transmission fluid temperature is excessive, which may lead to accelerated transmission
component wear or failure. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster
circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The transmission over-temperature indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by
the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the transmission over-temperature indicator for the
following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the transmission
over-temperature indicator is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Trans Over-Temp Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
trans over-temp indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the transmission fluid
temperature is 135 °C (275 °F) or higher, the indicator will be illuminated and a single chime tone is
sounded. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from
the PCM, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first. The chime
tone feature will only repeat during the same ignition cycle if the indicator is cycled OFF and then
ON again by the appropriate lamp-ON and lamp-OFF messages from the PCM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the transmission
over-temperature indicator will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the
test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the transmission temperature sensor to determine the transmission
operating condition. The PCM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). If
the instrument cluster illuminates the transmission over-temperature indicator due to a high
transmission oil temperature condition, it may indicate that the transmission or the transmission
cooling system are being overloaded, or that they require service. For further diagnosis of the
transmission over-temperature indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED,
Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transmission temperature sensor, the PCM, the EMIC, the CAN data
bus or the electronic communication related to transmission over-temperature indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An electronic automatic transmission gear selector indicator is standard factory-installed equipment
on this vehicle. However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional automatic transmission, this
indicator is electronically disabled. The gear selector indicator information is displayed in an
electronic, blue-green Vacuum-Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. This VFD unit is soldered onto the
cluster electronic circuit board and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located on
the lower edge of the speedometer dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the VFD
prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated.
The gear selector indicator displays the following characters from left to right: P, R, N, D, 2, and 1.
Each character appears in a blue-green color and at the same lighting level as the odometer
information. Respectively, these characters represent the PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,
second gear, and first gear positions of the transmission gear selector lever on the steering
column. The indicator illuminates a rectangular box around the character that represents the
currently selected lever position.
During daylight hours (exterior lamps are OFF) the gear selector indicator is illuminated at full
brightness for clear visibility. At night (exterior lamps are ON), the indicator lighting level is adjusted
with the other cluster general illumination lamps using the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the
headlamp switch. However, a PARADE mode position of the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel
allows the indicator to be illuminated at full brightness if the exterior lamps are turned ON during
daylight hours.
The gear selector indicator is serviced as a unit with the VFD unit in the instrument cluster.

Transmission Mode Indicator - A/T: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The electronic gear selector indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the transmission
gear that has been selected with the automatic transmission gear selector lever. This indicator is
controlled by the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming. The cluster
circuitry automatically configures itself for the proper transmission type based upon the hard wired
transmission range sensor mux circuit input to the cluster.
The gear selector indicator information is displayed by the odometer/trip odometer Vacuum
Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board, and
the VFD will not display the gear selector indicator information after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Each time the cluster is disconnected from battery current for more than about
five minutes, it must configure itself for the automatic transmission type that is in the vehicle once it
is reconnected to battery current. The instrument cluster circuitry configures the gear selector
indicator based upon the following inputs from the transmission range sensor:
- Open Circuit - If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission and the transmission
range sensor mux circuit is open, the cluster circuitry controls the gear selector indicator display
based upon an electronic selected gear message received from the Transmission Control Module
(TCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. If the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS)
mux circuit is open and no electronic selected gear messages are received from the TCM within
two seconds, the instrument cluster circuitry will not display any gear selector position until the
condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Resolved Circuit - If the transmission range sensor mux circuit is resolved, the cluster circuitry
controls the gear selector indicator display based upon the resistance value of the hard wired input
from the TRS. If the cluster is configured for an automatic transmission with a TRS input and
detects a short to ground or an open in the TRS mux input, the instrument cluster circuitry will not
display any gear selector position in the VFD. The VFD display for the short-to-ground and open
circuit conditions will continue until the condition is resolved or until the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the odometer/trip odometer
VFD will display all of its characters at once, then step through each character segment individually
during the VFD portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the VFD and the cluster control
circuitry.
On vehicles with a TCM, the TCM continually monitors the TRS, then sends the proper message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment
Node/CCN). On vehicles without a TCM, the EMIC continually monitors the hard wired TRS
multiplexed input. On vehicles with a TCM, for proper diagnosis of the TRS, the TCM, the EMIC,
the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to gear selector indicator operation a
diagnostic scan tool is required.

the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The 4 low indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument 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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn ON the 4 low indicator for the following reasons:
- 4 Low Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic 4 low indicator
lamp-ON message from the TIPM, the indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the TIPM, or until the ignition
switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the 4 low indicator will be
turned ON, then OFF again during the LED portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the
LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The TIPM continually monitors the electronic transfer case through the transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine when the 4WD low mode is engaged. The TIPM then
sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the 4 low
indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the transfer case shift motor/mode sensor, the TIPM, the EMIC, the CAN
data bus or the electronic communication related to 4 low indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool
is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp - Transfer Case: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A service 4WD indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles not
equipped with the optional four-wheel drive system and electronically shifted transfer case, this
indicator is electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer
dial face in the instrument cluster overlay.
The service 4WD indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text SVC 4WD in the opaque layer
of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents 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 indicator to appear in amber through the
translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The service 4WD indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp - Transfer Case: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The service 4WD indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) has recorded a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for an electronic transfer
case circuit or component malfunction. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument
cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the
cluster from the TIPM over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The service 4WD indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument
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 illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster
transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the service 4WD indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the service 4WD indicator is
illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
- Service 4WD Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic service
4WD indicator lamp-ON message from the TIPM, the service 4WD indicator will be illuminated. The
indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the TIPM, or until
the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Communication Error - If the cluster receives no lamp-ON or lamp-OFF messages from the TIPM
for 10 seconds the service 4WD indicator is illuminated by the cluster to indicate a loss of TIPM
communication. The indicator remains controlled and illuminated by the cluster until a valid
message is received from the TIPM.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the service 4WD indicator
will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the
functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The TIPM continually monitors the electronic transfer case control circuits and transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine the condition of the system. The TIPM then sends the
proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also
known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN). For further diagnosis of the service 4WD indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED, Refer to appropriate testing.
For proper diagnosis of the TIPM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic communication
related to service 4WD indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

DISCUSSION:
Chrysler Group vehicle fluid systems do NOT require regular flushing. These systems include:
engine oil, transmission oil, axle lube, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and refrigerant. The only
exception to this requirement are published in the vehicle maintenance schedules, e.g. engine
coolant.
Exceptions to this recommendation include only those instances where a failure has occurred
and/or the system has become compromised, contaminated or overheated beyond the normal
operating range.
Chrysler Group does NOT recommend aftermarket chemicals to flush the engine, transmission,
brake or steering systems. Chemicals contained in these products can damage the system
elastomeric components, and contaminate the component fluid, leading to loss of
system/component durability and service life. When necessary, only the original approved system
fluid should be used to flush these components using teamPSE(R) approved equipment.
If the engine coolant contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with Mopar
Cooling System Flush, p/n 04856977, or equivalent. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all
deposits and chemicals. Refill with a minimum of a 50% mixture of the specified coolant and
distilled water.

THE StarSCAN(R) FLASH FILES FOR THIS BULLETIN ARE AVAILABLE VIA THE INTERNET.
SUBJECT: FLASH: 68RFE Transmission - Harsh Coastdown Shift And/Or Harsh 2-3 Upshift
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Transmission
Control Module (1CM) with new software.
MODELS:
2007 - 2008 (DH/D1) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 68RFE automatic transmission (sale code DG7)
built on or before November 06, 2007 (MDH 1106XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may experience a harsh downshift from the transmission when coming to a stop.
When a vehicle stop is initiated from 4th gear (around 40 Km/h or 25 MPH), the harsh downshift
condition will usually occur as the vehicle decelerates to a speed of about 16Km/h (10MPH). If the
transmission is in 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th gear, when the stop is initiated, the condition will not be
present. This may cause the condition to appear to be intermittent to the customer. Because the
harsh downshift may occur below 16 Km/h (10 MPH), the customer may believe that they are
experiencing a harsh 2 - 1 downshift.
Some customers may also experience a harsh 2-3 upshift during normal acceleration. This
symptom is less common than the harsh coastdown shift.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using a StarSCAN(R) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT,
verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTCs are present record them on the
repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin.
2. If the vehicle operator describes or experiences the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair
Procedure.

DESCRIPTION
On gasoline vehicles the Transmission Control Module (TCM) (2) may be sub-module within the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (3).
Vehicles equipped 68RFE transmission and a 6.7L Diesel engine, the TCM is housed in the NGC4
controller utilizing only the C1 and C4 connectors (TCM only). The controller is located at the rear
of the engine compartment, near the right inner fender.

Control Module: Description and Operation Transmission Control Module - Operation
OPERATION
RLE and RFE TRANSMISSIONS
The Transmission Control Module (TCM) controls all electronic operations of the transmission. The
TCM receives information regarding vehicle operation from both direct and indirect inputs, and
selects the operational mode of the transmission. Direct inputs are hard wired to, and used
specifically by the TCM. Indirect inputs are shared with the TCM via the vehicle communication
bus.
Some examples of direct inputs to the TCM are:
- Battery (B+) voltage
- Ignition "ON" voltage
- Transmission Control Relay (Switched B+) (if equipped)
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Transmission Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Shaft Speed Sensor
- Output Shaft Speed Sensor
- Line Pressure Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Target Idle
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Ambient/Battery Temperature
- Scan Tool Communication
Based on the information received from these various inputs, the TCM determines the appropriate
shift schedule and shift points, depending on the present operating conditions and driver demand.
This is possible through the control of various direct and indirect outputs.
Some examples of TCM direct outputs are:
- Transmission Control Relay
- Solenoids
- Torque Reduction Request
Some examples of TCM indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM)
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN)
In addition to monitoring inputs and controlling outputs, the TCM has other important
responsibilities and functions:
- Storing and maintaining Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI)
- Storing and selecting appropriate Shift Schedules
- System self-diagnostics
- Diagnostic capabilities (with scan tool)
NOTE: If the TCM has been replaced, the "Quick Learn Procedure" must be performed. See:
Transmission Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning/Transmission
Control Module/TCM Quick Learn
BATTERY FEED
A fused, direct battery feed to the TCM is used for continuous power. This battery voltage is
necessary to retain memory in the TCM. When the battery (B+) is disconnected, this memory is
lost. When the battery (B+) is restored, this memory loss is detected by the TCM and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
CLUTCH VOLUME INDEXES (CVI)

and Modules - A/T > Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and Operation > Transmission Control
Module - Description > Page 9086
An important function of the TCM is to monitor Clutch Volume Indexes (CVI). CVIs represent the
volume of fluid needed to compress a clutch pack.
The TCM monitors gear ratio changes by monitoring the Input and Output Speed Sensors. The
Input, or Turbine Speed Sensor sends an electrical signal to the TCM that represents input shaft
rpm. The Output Speed Sensor provides the TCM with output shaft speed information.
By comparing the two inputs, the TCM can determine transmission gear position. This is important
to the CVI calculation because the TCM determines CVIs by monitoring how long it takes for a gear
change to occur.
Gear ratios can be determined by using the Scan Tool and reading the Input/Output Speed Sensor
values in the "Monitors" display. Gear ratio can be obtained by dividing the Input Speed Sensor
value by the Output Speed Sensor value.
For example, if the input shaft is rotating at 1000 rpm and the output shaft is rotating at 500 rpm,
then the TCM can determine that the gear ratio is 2:1. In direct drive (3rd gear), the gear ratio
changes to 1:1. The gear ratio changes as clutches are applied and released. By monitoring the
length of time it takes for the gear ratio to change following a shift request, the TCM can determine
the volume of fluid used to apply or release a friction element.
The volume of transmission fluid needed to apply the friction elements are continuously updated for
adaptive controls. As friction material wears, the volume of fluid need to apply the element
increases.
Certain mechanical problems within the input clutch assembly can cause inadequate or
out-of-range element volumes. Also, defective Input/Output Speed Sensors and wiring can cause
these conditions. The following charts identifies the appropriate clutch volumes and when they are
monitored/updated:

Module - Description > Page 9087
SHIFT SCHEDULES
As mentioned earlier, the TCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules.
Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift lever position
- Throttle position
- Engine load
- Fluid temperature
- Software level
As driving conditions change, the TCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the
following chart to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions.

How to Use Wiring Diagrams
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are designed to provide information regarding the
vehicles wiring content. In order to effectively use the wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important to understand all of their features and
characteristics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+) side of the circuit is placed near the top of the
page, and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near the bottom of the page.
All switches, components, and modules are shown in the at rest position with the doors closed and
the key removed from the ignition.
Components are shown two ways. A solid line around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indicates that the component is being shown is not
complete. Incomplete components have a reference number to indicate the page where the
component is shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made on the diagrams to represent components and
wiring as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short piece of wire is treated the same as a
long one. In addition, switches and other components are shown as simply as possible, with regard
to function only.

DESCRIPTION - CONNECTOR, GROUND AND SPLICE INFORMATION
CAUTION: Not all connectors are serviced. Some connectors are serviced only with a harness. A
typical example might be the Supplemental Restraint System connectors. Always check parts
availability before attempting a repair.
IDENTIFICATION
In-line connectors are identified by a number, as follows:
- In-line connectors located in the engine compartment are C100 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the instrument panel area are C200 series numbers.
- In-line connectors located in the body are C300 series numbers.
- Jumper harness connectors are C400 series numbers.
- Grounds and ground connectors are identified with a "G" and follow the same series numbering
as the in-line connectors.
- Splices are identified with an "S" and follow the same series numbering as the in-line connectors.
In addition, S001-S099 numbers are located in the engine compartment.
- Component connectors are identified by the component name instead of a number. Multiple
connectors on a component use a C1, C2, etc. identifier.
LOCATIONS

Transmission Control System Relay: Diagnostic Aids
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling
any component with this symbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inadvertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.
1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while
handling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.
2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first. 4. Do not remove the part from
it's protective packing until it is time to install the part. 5. Before removing the part from it's
package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.
Testing Of Voltage Potential
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF VOLTAGE POTENTIAL
1. Connect the ground lead of a voltmeter to a known good ground. 2. Connect the other lead of
the voltmeter to the selected test point. The vehicle ignition may need to be turned ON to check
voltage. Refer to the
appropriate test procedure.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - WIRING HARNESS
TROUBLESHOOTING TOOLS
When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit there are several common tools necessary.
These tools are listed and explained below.
- Jumper Wire - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass
an open in a circuit.
WARNING: Never use a jumper wire across a load, such as a motor, connected between a battery
feed and ground.
- Voltmeter - Used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good
ground and the red lead to the positive side of the circuit.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
- Ohmmeter - Used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in
a circuit means good continuity.
CAUTION: Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicles are Solid State. When
checking resistance in these circuits use a meter with a 10 - megohm or greater impedance rating.
In addition, make sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered up by
the vehicle's electrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays
and Modules - A/T > Transmission Control System Relay, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 9110
- Probing Tools - These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size
tool from Special Tool Package 6807, and insert the probing end (2) into the terminal being tested.
Use the other end of the tool (1) to insert the meter probe.
INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNECTIONS
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also
possible for a sticking component or relay to cause a problem. Before condemning a component or
wiring assembly, check the following items.
- Connectors are fully seated
- Spread terminals, or terminal push out
- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked into
position
- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent
problem
- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt or moisture
- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground
- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation
- Wiring broken inside of the insulation
TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The
steps are listed and explained below. Always check for non-factory items added to the vehicle
before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify
these add-on items are not the cause of the problem.
1. Verify the problem. 2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on
components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams. 3. Analyze the symptoms.
Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is
occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
4. Isolate the problem area. 5. Repair the problem area. 6. Verify the proper operation. For this
step, check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

Control Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality now resides in the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM), refer to the TIPM information for location and additional information. The
TIPM controls the 4X4 transfer case shift functions via the actuation of a shift motor and utilizing
the feedback of a mode sensor assembly. Communication is via the CAN bus. Inputs include user
selectable 4X4 modes that include 2WD, AWD, 4HI, 4LO, and Neutral (selections vary with the
specific transfer case).

Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) functionality in the Totally Integrated Power Module
(TIPM) utilizes the input from the transfer case mounted mode sensor, the instrument panel
mounted selector switch, and the following information from the vehicle's CAN bus to determine if a
shift is allowed.
- Engine RPM and Vehicle Speed
- Diagnostic Requests
- Manual Transmission and Brake Applied
- PRNDL
- Ignition Status
- ABS Messages
Once the TIP determines that a requested shift is allowed, it actuates the bi-directional shift motor
as necessary to achieve the desired transfer case operating mode. The TIPM also monitors the
mode sensor while controlling the shift motor to determine the status of the shift attempt.
Several items can cause the requested shift not to be completed. If the TIPM has recognized a
fault (DTC) of some variety, it will begin operation in one of four Functionality Levels. These levels
are:
- Level Zero - Normal Operation.
- Level One - Only Mode Shifts Are Allowed.
- Level Two - Only Mode Shifts and Shifts Into LOW Are Allowed (No Neutral Shifts Are Allowed).
- Level Three - No Shifts Are Allowed
The TIPM can also be operating in one of three possible power modes. These power modes are:
- Full Power Mode is the normal operational mode of the module. This mode is achieved by normal
CAN bus traffic being present and the ignition being in the RUN position.
Reduced Power Mode will be entered when the ignition has been powered off. In this state, the
module will shut down power supplied to external devices, and to electronic interface inputs and
outputs. From this state the module can enter either Sleep Mode or Full Power Mode. To enter this
mode, the module must receive an ignition message denoting that the ignition is off, or not receive
any messages for 5 ±0.5 seconds. To exit this mode, the module must receive one ignition
message that denotes that the ignition is in the RUN position.
- Sleep Mode will be entered, from the Reduced Power Mode, when no CAN traffic has been
sensed for 20 ±1 seconds. If during Sleep Mode the module detects CAN bus traffic, it will revert to
the Reduced Power mode while monitoring for ignition messages. It will remain in this state as long
as there is traffic other than run or start messages, and will return to Sleep mode if the bus goes
without traffic for 20 ±1 seconds.
SHIFT REQUIREMENTS
If the TIPM is in full power mode and at functionality level zero, it uses the following criteria to
determine if a shift is allowed.
If any of the driver controllable conditions are not met once the shift request is recognized, the
TIPM will solidly illuminate the source position's LED and flash the desired position's LED for all
shifts except NEUTRAL. The NEUTRAL shift LED strategy will be discussed later.
Mode shifts will be allowed regardless of transmission gear or vehicle speed, whenever the
following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector switch state indicates that a mode shift has been requested.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
Range shifts will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- A change in the Selector Switch state indicating a range shift has been requested.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal must be recognized for at least 1.5 seconds ±100 msec.
(Automatic transmissions only)
- Proper transmit/receive messages are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Clutch signal is recognized for 500 msec ± 50 msec (Manual transmissions only).
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.

and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 9134
A shift into transfer case Neutral will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- The recessed Neutral Selection switch has been depressed continuously for 4.0 seconds ±100
msec while all shift conditions have been continuously met.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal recognized from the bus. (Automatic transmissions only)
- Clutch signal is recognized from the bus (Manual transmissions only).
- Proper message transmissions/receptions are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position, engine off.
- Foot Brake is applied.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
A shift out of transfer case Neutral will be allowed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- Front and rear wheel speed are within 21 km/h (13 mph).
- The recessed Neutral Selection switch has been depressed continuously for 1.0 seconds ±100
msec while all shift conditions have been continuously met.
- Transmission in NEUTRAL signal recognized from the bus.(Automatic transmissions only)
- Clutch signal is recognized from the bus (Manual transmissions only).
- Proper message transmissions/receptions are occurring on the CAN bus.
- Vehicle speed is less than or equal to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
- Ignition key switch is in the RUN position.
- Foot Brake is applied.
- A valid mode sensor signal is being sensed by the TIPM.
SHIFT SEQUENCES
Once all the driver controllable conditions for the requested shift have been met, the TIPM begins a
shift timer with a maximum duration of 1 second per 'D' channel transition. If the shift timer expires
before the TIPM recognizes to correct mode sensor code, the shift is considered to have been
blocked. The blocked shift will increment the blocked shift counter by one. The TIPM strategy for
handling blocked shifts will be described later. The process the TIPM performs for the various shifts
will be described first.
RANGE AND MODE SHIFTS
The process for performing all the range and mode shifts are the same. The following steps
describe the process.
- Allow time for Selector Switch debounce; 250 msec ±50 msec.
- Extinguish the source gear's LED while flashing desired transfer case position's LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel transition in the
destination gear's direction while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Solidly illuminate the selected gear's LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds ±100 msec. per 'D'
channel. The TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired
position.
The exception to the preceding sequence is when a shift from 4L to 2WD/AWD is requested. If
2WD/AWD is requested from the 4L position, the transfer case is first driven to the 4H position. If
the 4H position is reached, the transfer case is then driven back to the 2WD/AWD position and the
shift is considered complete. If the transfer case does not reach any the 4H position, but is in the
2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the 2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the
shift is also considered complete.
SHIFT OUT OF NEUTRAL
The following steps describe the process for a shift out of NEUTRAL.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Engage the shift motor for a maximum of 1 second ±100 msec toward the transfer case 4H mode
position while monitoring the mode sensor channel transitions.
- Disengage the shift motor when the correct mode sensor code is recognized.
- Extinguish the Neutral LED.
- Transmit a bus message that the transfer case shift is complete.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (ie. a blocked or other
condition exists), stop driving the motor and wait for 200 msec ±50 msec. The shift motor is then
reversed in the direction back toward the source gear for up to 1.0 seconds 100 msec. The
Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo (2008))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays
and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 9135
TIPM waits for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeats the attempt to shift to the desired position.
- When the Neutral button is released, if the 4H position is the desired position, the shift is
complete. Illuminate the 4H LED.
- Otherwise when the Neutral button is released, if all of the shift requirements are being met then
engage the shift motor towards the desired position for 1 second ±100 msec per 'D' channel. (if
requirements for shifting are not met, illuminate the 4H LED and flash the destination LED as an
indication to the driver that all of the driver controllable shift conditions are not being met). If this
requires another range or mode shift, begin the range/mode shift process.
- If the desired mode sensor code is not received after the shift timer expires (i.e. a blocked or other
condition exists), refer to the Blocked Shift Strategy.
BLOCKED SHIFT STRATEGY
When a shift is commanded, the shift motor will be driven towards its destination position, except in
the case of shifting out of Neutral if 4L was selected (the transfer case will shift to the 4H position
first, before proceeding to 4L). If the shift is blocked on the way to the destination, the TIPM may
attempt to drive the motor back to the original position. This process will be allowed to occur 5
times. If the transfer case has reached a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel during the shift re-attempts,
the LED for the achieved gear position is illuminated and the shift attempts are stopped. To
re-attempt the desired shift, the selector switch will need to be rotated to the current position until
the switch debounce timer expires then a shift will need to be requested again.
At the end of the 5th blocked attempt, the shift motor is driven towards the last known 'D' channel
position. If this motor drive allows the transfer case to reach the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel, or the
2WD/AWD between gear position on the 4H side of 2WD/AWD, the shift is considered complete
and the shift attempts are ended.
If the mode sensor is in the NEUTRAL region at the expiration of the shift timer, the TIPM will
continue to make the shift attempts according to the blocked shift strategy independent of whether
or not the driver controlled conditions are met.
For shifts from NEUTRAL, if all 5 attempts fail to reach the desired position (which by default is
4H), the motor will be driven to stall in the direction of 4H or 4L, depending on the achieved
position. If the transfer case has reached the 2WD/AWD or 4L between gear position nearest the
NEUTRAL positions and the shift conditions are no longer being met, the transfer case will be
driven toward the corresponding 'D' channel. Otherwise, the transfer case will be driven in the
direction opposite the last attempt with the desired target being 4H or 4L.
If the transfer case reaches the 2WD/AWD 'D' channel when being driven in the 4H direction, then
one final 1.0 second drive toward 4H is attempted. If the transfer case then reaches any of the 4H
positions, the shift is considered complete and the 4H LED is illuminated. If the transfer case is still
the 2WD/AWD position, the shift is considered complete and the 2WD/AWD LED is illuminated.
NOTE: If after the 5th blocked shift and reversal attempt, if the transfer case position is in the
NEUTRAL region, shift attempts will continue until a non-NEUTRAL 'D' channel is reached.
SHIFT REVERSAL TARGETS
If the shift timer expires (1 second per 'D' channel) and the transfer case has not reached the
desired position, all shifts will attempt to return to their original position with the exceptions of:
- If the intended shift is going to the High rail from Low and can't make it, but it can make the
2WD/AWD position, the motor stops at that position. The TIPM will not attempt to cross back over
NEUTRAL if it does not have to. This means that there was a block on the first attempt to go to 4H
and the transfer case has made it through NEUTRAL to a known good position, then the motor will
go back only to the 2WD/4WD position and execute the remainder of the attempts from there.
- For shifts out of NEUTRAL, any time a shift is commanded out of NEUTRAL, the system needs to
get out. The TIPM should never go to NEUTRAL unless the driver is commanding it and all
required conditions are being met
ENCODER DRIFT CORRECTION
Whenever a shift is completed, the TIPM stores the position in memory as the transfer case's
intended position. The TIPM continuously monitors the mode sensor and if the mode sensor drifts
toward into a NEUTRAL region sensor position for 2.0 seconds, the TIPM will perform a motor
drive to correct the drift. The transfer case will be driven toward the intended position for 1.0
seconds 100 msec. The TIPM will wait for 2.0 seconds ±50 msec. and repeat the attempt to shift to
the desired position. This will continue until the intended position is reached.
SHIFT MOTOR BRAKING
Two modes of shift motor braking are employed to improve shift performance, static and dynamic.
Static shift motor braking is utilized under the following conditions:
- Whenever the transfer case is in the 2WD/AWD or 4L 'D' channel position.
- Whenever an invalid mode sensor code is present.
Static motor braking is achieved by applying +12V on both shift motor wires.

and Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 9136
NOTE: Static Shift Motor Braking is independent of ignition key position.
SHIFT ATTEMPT LIMIT
To protect the transfer case system, the TIPM will impose a limit on the number of shifts that can
occur over a calibrated time period. The system will monitor the number of 'D' channel segment
transitions that occur in any 30 second time period. If the number of segment transitions is 30 or
greater, the system will go into a default mode. The default mode of operation for shifting is that the
number of allowed 'D' channel transitions permitted to occur will be 3 over each 15 second ±100
msec calibrated window of time. After 5 minutes ±100 msec, the motor can be assumed to have
cooled down and the system will revert to normal operation. The following rules also apply to the
shift limit:
- The attempt limit will not prevent shifts coming out of NEUTRAL, they will be allowed regardless
of the counter/timer.
- Any shift that is in progress when the counter reaches a maximum count in time will be allowed to
complete before the default mode is entered. D-channel transitions during this period will not be
counted towards the default mode limit.
- A block, regardless of the direction, whether towards destination or back towards reversal target
(shift timer expiring), will count as a value of 2 transitions towards the 30 segment transitions to go
into default mode as defined above. Current attempt limit values are 30 transitions in 30 seconds
and default mode values are 3 transitions every 15 seconds for 5 minutes.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The TCM utilizes a closed-loop system to control transmission line pressure. The system contains
a variable force style solenoid, the Pressure Control Solenoid, which is part of the pressure switch
assembly. The solenoid is duty cycle controlled by the TCM to vent the unnecessary line pressure
supplied by the oil pump back to the pump inlet. The system contains a Line Pressure Sensor,
which is a direct input to the TCM. The line pressure sensor monitors the transmission line
pressure and completes the feedback loop to the TCM. The TCM uses this information to adjust its
control of the pressure control solenoid to achieve the desired line pressure.

Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The TCM calculates the desired line pressure based upon inputs from the transmission and engine.
The TCM calculates the torque input to the transmission and uses that information as the primary
input to the calculation. The line pressure is set to a predetermined value during shifts, to ensure
consistent shift quality. During all other operation, the desired line pressure value is adjusted based
on torque level and other transmission requirements.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The transmission solenoid/TRS assembly is internal to the transmission and mounted on the valve
body assembly. The assembly consists of six solenoids that control hydraulic pressure to the six
friction elements (transmission clutches), and the torque converter clutch. The pressure control
solenoid is located on the side of the solenoid/TRS assembly. The solenoid/TRS assembly also
contains the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and five pressure switches that feed information to
the TCM.

Shift Solenoid Position Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
SOLENOIDS
Solenoids are used to control the L/R, 2C, 4C, OD, and UD friction elements. The reverse clutch is
controlled by line pressure and the position of the manual valve in the valve body. All the solenoids
are contained within the Solenoid and Pressure Switch Assembly. The solenoid and pressure
switch assembly contains one additional solenoid, Multi-Select (MS), which serves primarily to
provide 2nd and 3rd gear limp-in operation.
The solenoids receive electrical power from the Transmission Control Relay through a single wire.
The TCM energizes or operates the solenoids individually by grounding the return wire of the
solenoid as necessary. When a solenoid is energized, the solenoid valve shifts, and a fluid
passage is opened or closed (vented or applied), depending on its default operating state. The
result is an apply or release of a frictional element.
The MS and UD solenoids are normally applied to allow transmission limp-in in the event of an
electrical failure.
The continuity of the solenoids and circuits are periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off
depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the TCM during this test. If
no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic
testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a speed ratio or pressure switch error occurs.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The TCM relies on five pressure switches to monitor fluid pressure in the L/R, 2C, 4C, UD, and OD
hydraulic circuits. The primary purpose of these switches is to help the TCM detect when clutch
circuit hydraulic failures occur. The switches close at 23 psi and open at 11 psi, and simply indicate
whether or not pressure exists. The switches are continuously monitored by the TCM for the
correct states (open or closed) in each gear as shown in the following charts and 545RFE
PRESSURE SWITCH STATES:
A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the TCM senses any switch open or closed at the
wrong time in a given gear.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary functions:
- Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the engine controller and the starter relay.
- Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmission is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is on.
- Provide a transmission range signal to the instrument cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It's
in the same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other transmissions. The TRS contacts a
cammed surface on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface translates the rotational motion
of the manual lever into the linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on the manual lever
is comprised of two parts controlling the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the switch
poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; providing a ground for the signal from the starter
relay and the appropriate engine controller.

As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts slide across a circuit board which changes
the resistance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A power supply on the instrument
cluster provides a regulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is decoded by the
cluster, which then controls the PRNDL display to correspond with the correct transmission range.
A bus message of transmission range is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second
contact set closes the circuit providing power to the reverse lamps.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.
Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Testing and Inspection
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring
Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist. 2. Disconnect the vehicle's shift cable from the manual lever. 3.
With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to
the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The
resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense pin of the
TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact
between the tip of the TRS rod and the valve body
manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output and the Back-up Lamp
feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms. If the resistance is greater than 5
ohms, replace the TRS.
7. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved
to the full rearward position), measure the
resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Transmission Range Sensor 5V
Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 522.2 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
8. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever
moved one detent forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 206.2 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
9. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever
moved two detents forward of the full
rearward position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 108.6 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
10. With the manual lever in the DRIVE position (the DRIVE position is with the manual lever
moved three detents forward of the full rearward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the
Transmission Range Sensor 5V Supply pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 59.9 ohms. If
the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.
11. With the manual lever in the SECOND position (the SECOND position is with the manual lever
moved one detent rearward of the full forward
position), measure the resistance between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up
Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The resistance should be 31.9 ohms. If the resistance is not correct,
replace the TRS.
12. With the manual lever in the LOW position (the LOW position is with the manual lever moved to
the full forward position), measure the resistance
between the Transmission Range Sensor MUX and the Back-up Lamp feed pins of the TRS. The
resistance should be 13.7 ohms. If the resistance is not correct, replace the TRS.

The Input and Output Speed Sensors are two-wire magnetic pickup devices that generate AC
signals as rotation occurs. They are mounted in the left side of the transmission case and are
considered primary inputs to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
Operation
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of
the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil, an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The
TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The Output Speed Sensor generates an AC signal in a similar fashion, though its coil is excited by
rotation of the park gear teeth. The TCM interprets this information as output shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input and output speed signals to determine the following:
- Transmission gear ratio
- Speed ratio error detection
- CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the
following:
- Torque converter clutch slippage
- Torque converter element speed ratio

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) is part of the solenoid module, which is mounted to the top
of the valve body inside the transmission.
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has five switch contact pins that:
- Determine shift lever position
- Supply ground to the Starter Relay in Park and Neutral only.
The TRS also has an integrated temperature sensor (thermistor) that communicates transmission
temperature to the TCM and PCM.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) communicates shift lever position to the TCM as a
combination of open and closed switches. Each shift lever position has an assigned combination of
switch states (open/closed) that the TCM receives from four sense circuits. The TCM interprets this
information and determines the appropriate transmission gear position and shift schedule.
There are many possible combinations of open and closed switches (codes). Five of these possible
codes correspond to valid gear position, there are two codes for the neutral position and three are
recognized as "between gear" codes. This results in many codes which should never occur. These
are called "invalid" codes. An invalid code will result in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the
shift lever position based on pressure switch data. This allows reasonably normal transmission
operation with a TRS failure.

Four Wheel Drive Selector Switch: Description and Operation NV243 Transfer Case
Description
DESCRIPTION
The selector switch assembly is mounted in the left side of the vehicle's Instrument Panel (IP) and
consists of a rotary knob connected to a resistive network for the mode and range shift selections.
Also located in this assembly is a recessed, normally open momentary switch for making shifts into
and out of transfer case NEUTRAL. A pen, or similar instrument, is used to make a NEUTRAL shift
selection, thus reducing the likelihood of an inadvertent shift request.
The selector switch also contains four light emitting diode's (LED's) to indicate the transfer case
position and whether a shift is in progress.
Operation
OPERATION
As the position of the selector switch varies, the resistance between the Mode Sensor supply
voltage pin and the Mode Sensor output will vary. Hardware, software, and calibrations within the
Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) are provided that interpret the selector switch resistance as
given in the table below:
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO,
4HI, 2WD), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
- either of the neighboring valid positions.
- as an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges E and F shown for 2WD and in-between positions, the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
- the 2WD position.
- an invalid fault position.
- a valid in-between position.
For resistances between the ranges F and G shown for in-between positions and fault condition
(open), the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:

NV243 Transfer Case > Page 9337
- a valid in-between position.
- an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges A and B shown for the fault condition (short) and T-Case
NEUTRAL, the TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
- the T-Case NEUTRAL position.
- an invalid fault position.
The LED's in the selector assembly are illuminated/flashed in the following manner to indicate a
particular condition or state.
- A solidly illuminated LED indicates a successfully completed shift and the current operating mode
of the transfer case. While a shift has been requested but not yet completed, the LED for the
desired transfer case position is flashed.
- A flashing operating mode LED for the desired gear indicates that a shift to that position has been
requested, but all of the driver controllable conditions have not been met. This is in an attempt to
notify the driver that the transmission needs to be put into NEUTRAL, the vehicle speed is too
great, or some other condition outlined (other than a diagnostic failure that would prevent this shift)
elsewhere See: Relays and Modules - Transmission and Drivetrain/Relays and Modules - Transfer
Case/Control Module/Description and Operation/Operation is not met. Note that this flashing will
continue indefinitely until the conditions are eventually met, or the selector switch position is
changed, or if diagnostic routines no longer allow the requested shift.
- If the driver attempts to make a shift into transfer case NEUTRAL, and any of the driver
controllable conditions are not met, the request will be ignored until all of the conditions are met or
until the NEUTRAL select button is released. Additionally the neutral lamp will flash, or begin to
flash while the button is depressed and operator controllable conditions are not being met. All of
the LED's except the Neutral will flash if any of the operator controllable conditions for shifting are
not met while the Neutral button is depressed. This "toggle" type of feature is necessary because
the TCCM would interpret another request immediately after the shift into transfer case NEUTRAL
has completed.
- No LED's illuminated indicate a fault in the transfer case control system.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case mode sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to indicate
the shift motor shaft's rotary position. The sensor consists of a magnetic ring and four Hall Effect
Transistors to create a 4 channel digital device (non-contacting) whose output converts the motor
shaft position into a coded signal. The TCCM must supply 5VDC (+/- 0.5v) to the sensor and
monitor the shift motor position. The four channels are denoted A, B, C, and D. The sensor is
mechanically linked to the shaft of the cam which causes the transfer case shifting. The mode
sensor draws less than 53 mA.
Operation
OPERATION
During normal vehicle operation, the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) monitors the mode
sensor outputs at least every 250 (+/-50) milliseconds when the shift motor is stationary and 400
microseconds when the shift motor is active. A mode sensor signal between 3.8 Volts and 0.8 Volts
is considered to be undefined.
Refer to SECTOR ANGLES vs.TRANSFER CASE POSITION for the relative angles of the transfer
case shift sector versus the interpreted transfer case gear operating mode. Refer to MODE
SENSOR CHANNEL STATES for the sensor codes returned to the TCCM for each transfer case
mode sensor position. The various between gears positions can also be referred as the transfer
case's coarse position. These coarse positions come into play during shift attempts.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case position sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to
indicate the transfer case's current operating mode. The sensor consists of a five position, resistive
multiplexed circuit which returns a specific resistance value to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) for each transfer case operating mode. The sensor is located on the top of the transfer
case, just left of the transfer case centerline and rides against the sector plate roostercomb. The
PCM supplies 5VDC (+/- 0.5V) to the sensor and monitors the return voltage to determine the
sector plate, and therefore the transfer case, position.
Operation
OPERATION
Position Sensor Linear Movement
During normal vehicle operation, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the transfer case
position sensor return voltage to determine the operating mode of the transfer case. Refer to the
Operating Mode Versus Resistance table for the correct resistance for each position.
