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.

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. 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 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.
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment > Keyless
Entry Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Module-Remote Keyless Entry > Page 34
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.

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. 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 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.
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Body and Frame > Keyless Entry Module >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Module-Remote Keyless Entry > Page 72
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.

Seat Heater Control Module: 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.

Seat Heater Control Module: 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.

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

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).
c. Select "ECU View."
d. Scroll down and select "WCM" in the list of modules.
e. Select "Misc. Functions."
f. Scroll to "WCM Replaced."
g. Press "Start".
h. Press "Next".
i. Select "Show Keyboard".
j. Enter the vehicle PIN number.
k. Select "Next".
l. Verify PIN is correct.
m. Select "Next".
n. Follow on-screen prompts to complete WCM function programing for Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) and so on.
0. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. Wait 30 seconds.
p. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)

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.

- 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
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 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.

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.
- 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.

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 275
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.

procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher

DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.
2007 GRAND CHEROKEE W/ 3.0L TD/2005 - 2007 LIBERTY w/2.8L TD/2007 RAM TRUCK/RAM
CAB CHASSIS w 6.7L TD AND 2004-2006 SPRINTER w 2.7L TD ENGINES.
For the above models equipped with Turbo Diesel Engines, the fuel injector "Quantity Values" must
be physically read from each injector and the values written to the ECU with an appropriate scan
tool.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

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.
- 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.

and Instructions > Page 537
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: 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:
1. Program the new PCM/ECM.
2. Program the new SKREEM/WCM.
3. Replace all ignition keys and program them into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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: Be certain to enter the correct country code for the SKREEM/WCM. If the incorrect country
code is programmed into the SKREEM, it cannot be changed and the SKREEM must be replaced.
NOTE: In addition, the SKREEM/WCM must be configured for certain optional equipment in the
vehicle, including Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM), Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and Remote Start.
Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool under MISCELLANEOUS
FUNCTIONS for the WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: A replacement SKREEM/WCM is supplied with TPM enabled by default; therefore, if the
vehicle is not equipped with TPM, the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) will incorrectly
learn that the vehicle has TPM after the replacement SKREEM is installed. The TPM indicator in
the EMIC will illuminate to show a TPM fault condition after TPM has been disabled in the
SKREEM. The EMIC must unlearn TPM to correct this false TPM indication. Follow the
programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for CLEAR LEARNED FEATURES under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the INSTRUMENT CLUSTER menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: If the PCM/ECM and the SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle ignition
keys will need to be replaced and the new keys programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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.
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: 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

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.

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.
- 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.

Instructions > Page 624
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.

Air Bag Control Module: 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 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.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains the supplemental
restraint system logic circuits and controls all of the supplemental restraint system 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 supplemental restraint system diagnosis and testing through the 16-way Data Link
Connector (DLC) located on the driver side lower edge of the instrument panel.
The ORC microprocessor continuously monitors all of the supplemental restraint system 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, 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 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 supplemental restraint components for up to one second following a battery disconnect or
failure. The purpose of the capacitor is to provide backup supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint 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 supplemental restraint system 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, the front seat
belt tensioners and, if the vehicle is so equipped, either side curtain airbag unit. On standard cab
vehicles, the passenger front airbag and seat belt tensioner 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 supplemental
restraint system. 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.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop the occupant restraint controller, as
it can damage the impact sensor or affect its calibration. The occupant restraint controller contains
the impact sensor, which enables the system to deploy the supplemental restraints. If an occupant
restraint controller is accidentally dropped during service, the module must be scrapped and
replaced with a new unit. Failure to observe this warning could result in accidental, incomplete, or
improper supplemental restraint deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before further service.
2. Remove the protective cover from the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) (1).
3. Unlatch and disconnect the two wire harness connectors (3) for the ORC from the ORC
connector receptacles (2 and 4) located on the forward
facing side of the module. To disconnect the wire harness connectors from the ORC, depress the
release tab and lift the lever arm on each connector.
4. Remove the three nuts (2) that secure the ORC (1) to the studs on the ORC mounting bracket
(3) on the floor panel transmission tunnel.
5. Remove the ORC from the floor panel transmission tunnel.

supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before further service.
NOTE: The front seat assembly must be unfastened from the floor panel, but need not be removed
from the vehicle for access to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) cover for service.
2. Remove the front seat from the vehicle.
3. Using a trim stick or another suitable wide flat-bladed tool, gently pry the latch feature on either
side of the ORC cover (1) away from the base of
the ORC (2) far enough to disengage the cover from the module.
4. Remove the ORC cover from over the ORC.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop the occupant restraint controller, as
it can damage the impact sensor or affect its calibration. The occupant restraint controller contains
the impact sensor, which enables the system to deploy the supplemental restraints. If an occupant
restraint controller is accidentally dropped during service, the module must be scrapped and
replaced with a new unit. Failure to observe this warning could result in accidental, incomplete, or
improper supplemental restraint deployment.
1. Position the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) (1) over the three studs of the ORC mounting
bracket (3) on the floor panel transmission tunnel,
then engage the locating pin on the bottom of the right ORC mounting flange into the locating hole
in the bracket. When the ORC is correctly positioned, the arrow on the ORC label will be pointed
forward in the vehicle.
2. Install and tighten the three nuts (2) that secure the ORC to the bracket on the floor panel
transmission tunnel. Tighten the nuts to 10 Nm (7 ft.
lbs.).
3. Reconnect the two wire harness connectors (3) for the ORC (1) to the ORC connector
receptacles (2 and 4) located on the forward facing side of
the module. Be certain that the latches on the connectors are each fully engaged.
4. Reinstall the ORC cover onto the ORC.

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.

8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.

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.

e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.
SECTION B - REPROGRAM (FLASH) TCM - 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 8.01 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(R) 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.

Control Module: Description and Operation 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.
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
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 > Description > Page 765
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.

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 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.

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.
- 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. 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.

Description > Page 807
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

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 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.

Modules - Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation >
Description > Page 809
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 kilo ohm 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.

Any diagnosis of the Audio system should begin with the use of scan tool.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate wiring information.
WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, seat
belt tensioner, side airbag, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and
isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to
discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the
airbag system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment
and possible personal injury.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Remove the remote radio switch(es) from the steering wheel.
3. Use an ohmmeter to check the switch resistances as shown in the Remote Radio Switch Test
chart. If the remote radio switch resistances check
OK, go to STEP 4. If not OK, replace the faulty switch.
4. Connect the battery negative cable. Turn the ignition switch to the On position. Check for 5 volts
at the radio control mux circuit cavities of the
steering wheel wire harness connectors for both remote radio switches. If OK, go to STEP 5. If not
OK, repair the open or shorted radio control mux circuit to the Totally Integrated Power Module
(TIPM) as required.
5. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Disconnect the 22-way instrument panel wire
harness connector from the TIPM. Check for
continuity between the remote radio switch ground circuit cavities of the steering wheel wire
harness connectors for both remote radio switches and a good ground. There should be no
continuity. If OK, go to STEP 6. If not OK, repair the shorted remote radio switch ground circuit to
the TIPM as required.
6. Check for continuity between the remote radio switch ground circuit cavities of the steering
wheel wire harness connectors for both remote radio
switches and the 22-way instrument panel wire harness connector for the TIPM. There should be
continuity. If OK, refer to the proper Diagnostic

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 kilo ohm 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. 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.

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. 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 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.

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 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
supplemental restraint system. 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. 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.

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

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

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

Cruise Control Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two separate switch pods operate the speed control system. The steering-wheel-mounted
switches use multiplexed circuits to provide inputs to the PCM (to the ECM for diesel) for ON, OFF,
RESUME, ACCELERATE, SET, DECEL and CANCEL modes. Refer to the Owner's Manual for
speed control switch functions and setting procedures.
The individual switches cannot be repaired. If one switch fails, the entire switch module must be
replaced.
Depending on engine control computer (JTEC having a 3- plug connector or NGC having a 4- plug
connector), 2 types of switches are used. Both types of switches are internally and externally
different. The switch used with the NGC system has an attached pigtail lead. The switch used with
the JTEC system does not have an attached pigtail lead.

Cruise Control Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When speed control is selected by depressing the ON, OFF switch, the PCM (ECM for diesel)
allows a set speed to be stored in its RAM for speed control. To store a set speed, depress the
SET switch while the vehicle is moving at a speed between approximately 35 (56.2kph) and 85
mph (136.8kph). In order for the speed control to engage, the brakes cannot be applied, nor can
the gear selector be indicating the transmission is in Park or Neutral.
The speed control can be disengaged manually by:
- Stepping on the brake pedal
- Depressing the OFF switch
- Depressing the CANCEL switch.
The speed control can be disengaged also by any of the following conditions:
- An indication of Park or Neutral (auto. trans.)
- The VSS signal increases at a rate of 10 mph (16 kph) per second (indicates that the co-efficient
of friction between the road surface and tires is extremely low)
- Depressing the clutch pedal (manual trans.).
- Excessive engine rpm (indicates that the transmission may be in a low gear)
- The VSS signal decreases at a rate of 10 mph (16 kph) per second (indicates that the vehicle
may have decelerated at an extremely high rate)
- If the actual speed is not within 20 mph (32.1 kph) of the set speed
- The previous disengagement conditions are programmed for added safety.
Once the speed control has been disengaged, depressing the ACCEL switch restores the vehicle
to the target speed that was stored in the PCM's RAM (ECM for diesel).
NOTE: Depressing the OFF switch will erase the set speed stored in the PCM's/ECM's RAM.
If, while the speed control is engaged, the driver wishes to increase vehicle speed, the PCM (ECM
for diesel) is programmed for an acceleration feature. With the ACCEL switch held closed, the
vehicle accelerates slowly to the desired speed. The new target speed is stored in the
PCM's/ECM's RAM when the ACCEL switch is released. The PCM/ECM also has a "tap-up"
feature in which vehicle speed increases at a rate of approximately 2 mph (3.2 kph) for each
momentary switch activation of the ACCEL switch.
The PCM/ECM also provides a means to decelerate without disengaging speed control. To
decelerate from an existing recorded target speed, depress and hold the COAST switch until the
desired speed is reached. Then release the switch. The ON, OFF switch operates two
components: the PCM's/ECM's ON, OFF input, and the battery voltage to the brake switch.

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.
- 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.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 1151
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.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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) or
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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) or Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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 kilohms. At 55° C (130° F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance should read between these two values. If OK,
perform further diagnosis of the Compass Mini - Trip Computer (CMTC) or Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) as applicable. If not OK, replace the inoperative ambient temperature
sensor.

Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Cutaway of HVAC housing shown for clarity.
The evaporator temperature sensor (1) is an electrical thermistor located within a molded plastic
case that is inserted into the top of the HVAC housing (2) to measure the temperature of the
conditioned air downstream of the A/C evaporator (3). Two terminals within the connector
receptacle connect the sensor to the vehicle electrical system through a wire lead and connector of
the HVAC wire harness.
The external location of the evaporator temperature sensor allows the sensor to be removed or

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.
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.

Door Switch: Description and Operation Description
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.

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.

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.
- 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.

Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 1278
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.

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.

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 kilohms, 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. 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 Description
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.

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.

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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Crankcase Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
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.

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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Description > Page 1629
Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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.
- 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.

Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Oil Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 1689
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.

CAUTION:
On 2007 model trucks, before the application software can be reprogrammed (flashed) into the
Engine Control Module (ECM), the ECM must first be reprogrammed (flashed) with new
"bootloader" software. Failure to reprogram the ECM with the new "bootloader" software first may
cause the process of reprogramming the ECM with the application software to fail. The ECM
"bootloader" software special flash procedure must be followed exactly to prevent damage to the
ECM.
CAUTION:
When performing the "bootloader" section of the repair procedure, DO NOT interrupt the ECM
reprogramming session. This special ECM "bootloader" software reprogramming session does not
support "abort - recovery" mode. If "bootloader" software is interrupted, the ECM will be
permanently disabled and will require replacement.

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.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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.

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
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 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.

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.

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.

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.
- 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.

Information and Instructions > Page 1917
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 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 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.

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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 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. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for specific recommendations on
when to enable or disable the passenger airbag. 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.

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.

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

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.

> Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 2173
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.

Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The seat track position sensor (2) is a Hall Effect-type sensor used on some vehicles. This sensor
consists of a Hall Effect Integrated Circuit (IC) chip encased in potting material within a cavity of the
molded plastic sensor housing.
The sensor housing has a mounting slot containing an integral latch feature (1) and slides and
latches onto a stamped metal blade-type bracket located on the inboard side of the upper inboard
seat adjuster track near the rear of the driver side front seat. A molded connector receptacle (3)
integral to the sensor housing is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
and take out of the driver seat wire harness beneath the front seat cushion frame.
The seat track position sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the
entire sensor must be replaced.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Restraint Systems > Seat Position Sensor >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 2178
Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The seat track position sensor is designed to provide a seat position data input to the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) indicating whether the driver side front seat is in a full forward or a not
full forward position. The ORC uses this data as an additional logic input for use in determining the
appropriate deployment force to be used when deploying the multistage driver side front airbag.
The seat track position sensor receives a nominal five volt supply from the ORC. The sensor
communicates the seat position by modulating the voltage returned to the ORC on a sensor data
circuit. The ORC also monitors the condition of the sensor circuits and will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that is detected, and sends messages over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) data bus to illuminate the airbag indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
The hard wired circuits between the seat track position sensor 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 seat
track position sensor or the electronic controls and communication between other modules and
devices that provide features of the supplemental restraint system. The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the seat track position sensor or the electronic controls and
communication related to seat track position sensor operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Sensor > Component Information > Description and Operation > Battery Temperature Sensor - Description > Page 2199
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.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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.

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.

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

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, 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.

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.

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.

Power Window 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 Window 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.

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. 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.

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: Service and Repair Camber, Caster And Toe Adjustment
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).
NOTE: Each front wheel should be adjusted for one-half of the total toe position specification. This
will ensure the steering wheel will be centered when the wheels are positioned straight-ahead.

Alignment: Service and Repair Alignment Link/Coil Suspension
ALIGNMENT LINK/COIL SUSPENSION
Before each alignment reading the vehicle should be jounced (rear first, then front). Grasp each
bumper at the center and jounce the vehicle up and down several times. Always release the
bumper in the down position. Set the front end alignment to specifications while the vehicle is in its
NORMALLY LOADED CONDITION.
CAMBER: The wheel camber angle is preset and is not adjustable.
CASTER: Check the caster of the front axle for correct angle. Be sure the axle is not bent or
twisted. Road test the vehicle and make left and right turn. Observe the steering wheel
return-to-center position. Low caster will cause poor steering wheel returnability.
Caster can be adjusted by rotating the cams (3) on the lower suspension arm.
TOE POSITION: The wheel toe position adjustment should be the final adjustment.
1. Start the engine and turn wheels both ways before straightening the wheels. Center and Secure
the steering wheel and turn off engine. 2. Loosen the adjustment sleeve clamp bolts. 3. Adjust the
right wheel toe position with the drag link. Turn the sleeve until the right wheel is at the correct
TOE-IN position. Position clamp bolts
to their original position and tighten to specifications. Make sure the toe setting does not change
during clamp tightening.
4. Adjust left wheel toe position with tie rod at left knuckle. Turn the sleeve until the left wheel is at
the correct TOE-IN position. Position clamp
bolts to their original position and tighten to specifications. Make sure the toe setting does not
change during clamp tightening.
NOTE: Toe setting will change during tightening, Make sure to verify reading after tightening.
5. Verify the right toe setting and a straight steering wheel. 6. Road test the vehicle.

Alignment: Service and Repair Curb Height Measurement (HD)
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.
1. Front 4X2 On each side of the vehicle, measure the distance from the top of the jounce bumper
flange (2) to the bottom of the frame rail (1).
2. Front 4X4 On each side of the vehicle, measure the distance from the top of the axle (2) to the
bottom of the jounce bumper flange (1).

*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.

Air Filter Element: Service and Repair Removal
REMOVAL
Testing Air Cleaner Element using Filter Minder(TM)
Do not attempt to unnecessarily remove top of air cleaner housing for air cleaner element
inspection on diesel engines.
The air cleaner (filter) housing (5) is equipped with an air Filter Minder(TM) gauge (3). This air flow
restriction gauge will determine when air cleaner element is restricted and should be replaced.
The Filter Minder(TM) (5) consists of a diaphragm and calibrated spring sealed inside of a plastic
housing. A yellow colored disc (2) attached to diaphragm moves along a graduated scale on side of
Filter Minder. After the engine has been shut off, a ratcheting device located within Filter Minder will
hold yellow disc at highest restriction that air cleaner element has experienced. A drop in air
pressure due to an air cleaner element restriction moves diaphragm and yellow disc will indicate
size of air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners may discolor or damage plastic housing of Filter
Minder. Cover and tape Filter Minder if any engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn engine off. If yellow disc (2) has reached red colored zone (3) on graduated scale, air
cleaner element should be replaced. Refer to Removal / Installation.
Resetting Filter Minder: After air cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press rubber button on
top of Filter Minder. This will allow yellow

colored disc to reset. After button has been pressed, yellow disc should spring back to UP position.
If Filter Minder gauge has reached red colored zone, and after an examination of air cleaner (filter)
element, element appears to be clean, high reading may be due to a temporary condition such as
snow build-up at air intake. Temporary high restrictions may also occur if air cleaner (filter) element
has gotten wet such as during a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow element to dry out during
normal engine operation. Reset rubber button on top of Filter Minder and retest after element has
dried.
Filter Removal
1. The housing cover is equipped with spring clips and is hinged with plastic tabs. Unlatch clips
from top of air cleaner housing and tilt housing cover
up for cover removal.

VEHICLES.
SUBJECT: Fuel And Fuel Filtering Requirements For Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engines
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding fuel system requirements.
MODELS: 2006 - 2007
(DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (Heavy Duty)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L High Output or a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel
Engine (sales codes ETH or ETJ respectively) that were built on or after March 07, 2006 (MDH
0307XX).
DISCUSSION:
Current Fuel Systems:
- For the diesel engine system to operate at its peak performance a high level of fuel quality must
be maintained. Emission control and fuel delivery systems have advanced significantly. Care must
be taken to insure that the fuel that is delivered to the engine fuel injection system is of the highest
quality possible and free of contaminants.
- Significant components to fuel quality are: the initial quality of the fuel (as dispensed from the
service station fuel pump or bulk storage), on-vehicle fuel storage, and the on-vehicle fuel filtering
of the diesel fuel prior to the fuel injection process.
- Refer to the Owners Manual for fuel and fuel system information.
Proper Fuel And Fuel Quality:
- 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 and meeting ASTM D975 grade 5-15) is required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. **
- ** The 2007 Ram Truck Cab and Chassis (DC) vehicle is equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. This
vehicle is to use Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel. Due to limited availability of Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel, during the initial production of this vehicle, Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) may be used ONLY until Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
becomes readily available and fuel pumps that dispense Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel are
required to be labelled as such. This is expected to occur around October 15, 2006. **
- ** Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm
of sulfur or less) are required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine. **
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown
sulfur and water content and unknown cetane number may adversely affect the performance of the
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Tune-up and Engine Performance Checks > Fuel Filter > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Fuel System - Heavy Duty MOPAR Filtration Kit Retrofit > Page 2607
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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify
that the water sensor probes in the final filter have 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 I water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table shown.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Tune-up and Engine Performance Checks > Fuel Filter > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Fuel System - Heavy Duty MOPAR Filtration Kit Retrofit > Page 2608
- Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications 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.
- It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris and water contamination.
- The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
CYLINDER COMPRESSION/LEAKAGE TESTS
CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
The results of a cylinder compression pressure test can be utilized to diagnose several engine
malfunctions.
Ensure batteries are completely charged and the engine starter motor is in good operating
condition. Otherwise, the indicated compression pressures may not be valid for diagnostic
purposes.
1. Disconnect the fuel inlet line to the fuel filter housing. Plug the fuel line from the fuel tank.
NOTE: Failure to plug fuel line will result in fuel leak.
2. Remove fuel transfer pump relay from PDC. 3. Start the engine and idle until the engine stalls
(runs out of fuel). 4. Remove the cylinder head cover. 5. Remove the cylinder head cover carrier
gasket. 6. Remove the high pressure fuel line between the cylinder head and fuel rail for the
cylinder to be tested. Use tool 9864 to cap this fuel rail on the
cylinder being tested.
7. Remove the fuel connector tube nut and fuel connector tube. 8. Remove the exhaust rocker
lever. 9. Use Tool 9010 to remove the injector and copper sealing washer.
10. Install the exhaust rocker lever and torque to 36 Nm (27 ft. lbs.). 11. Cover the remaining rocker
levers with clean shop towels to prevent any oil splatter under the hood. 12. Place a rag over the
compression test tool fitting. Crank the engine for 2-3 seconds to purge any fuel that may have
drained into the cylinder when
the injector was removed.
13. Connect the compression test gauge. 14. Crank the engine for 5 seconds and record the
pressure reading. Repeat this step three times and calculate the average of the three readings.
NOTE: The minimum cylinder pressure is 350 psi. Cylinder pressure should be within 20% from
cylinder to cylinder.
15. Combustion pressure leakage can be checked if cylinder pressure is below the specification.
Perform the leakage test procedure on each cylinder
according to the tester manufacturer instructions.
16. Upon completion of the test check and erase any engine related fault codes.
CYLINDER COMBUSTION PRESSURE LEAKAGE
The combustion pressure leakage test provides an accurate means for determining engine
condition.

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. 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/resetting is not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resetting is required.

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.

Air Filter Element: Service and Repair Removal
REMOVAL
Testing Air Cleaner Element using Filter Minder(TM)
Do not attempt to unnecessarily remove top of air cleaner housing for air cleaner element
inspection on diesel engines.
The air cleaner (filter) housing (5) is equipped with an air Filter Minder(TM) gauge (3). This air flow
restriction gauge will determine when air cleaner element is restricted and should be replaced.
The Filter Minder(TM) (5) consists of a diaphragm and calibrated spring sealed inside of a plastic
housing. A yellow colored disc (2) attached to diaphragm moves along a graduated scale on side of
Filter Minder. After the engine has been shut off, a ratcheting device located within Filter Minder will
hold yellow disc at highest restriction that air cleaner element has experienced. A drop in air
pressure due to an air cleaner element restriction moves diaphragm and yellow disc will indicate
size of air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners may discolor or damage plastic housing of Filter
Minder. Cover and tape Filter Minder if any engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn engine off. If yellow disc (2) has reached red colored zone (3) on graduated scale, air
cleaner element should be replaced. Refer to Removal / Installation.
Resetting Filter Minder: After air cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press rubber button on
top of Filter Minder. This will allow yellow

colored disc to reset. After button has been pressed, yellow disc should spring back to UP position.
If Filter Minder gauge has reached red colored zone, and after an examination of air cleaner (filter)
element, element appears to be clean, high reading may be due to a temporary condition such as
snow build-up at air intake. Temporary high restrictions may also occur if air cleaner (filter) element
has gotten wet such as during a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow element to dry out during
normal engine operation. Reset rubber button on top of Filter Minder and retest after element has
dried.
Filter Removal
1. The housing cover is equipped with spring clips and is hinged with plastic tabs. Unlatch clips
from top of air cleaner housing and tilt housing cover
up for cover removal.
2. Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner housing (5).

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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Filters > Crankcase Filter > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Page 2662
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.

REGARDING FUELING OF EARLY BUILT 2007 RAM TRUCK CAB AND CHASSIS (DC)
VEHICLES.
SUBJECT: Fuel And Fuel Filtering Requirements For Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engines
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding fuel system requirements.
MODELS: 2006 - 2007
(DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (Heavy Duty)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L High Output or a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel
Engine (sales codes ETH or ETJ respectively) that were built on or after March 07, 2006 (MDH
0307XX).
DISCUSSION:
Current Fuel Systems:
- For the diesel engine system to operate at its peak performance a high level of fuel quality must
be maintained. Emission control and fuel delivery systems have advanced significantly. Care must
be taken to insure that the fuel that is delivered to the engine fuel injection system is of the highest
quality possible and free of contaminants.
- Significant components to fuel quality are: the initial quality of the fuel (as dispensed from the
service station fuel pump or bulk storage), on-vehicle fuel storage, and the on-vehicle fuel filtering
of the diesel fuel prior to the fuel injection process.
- Refer to the Owners Manual for fuel and fuel system information.
Proper Fuel And Fuel Quality:
- 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 and meeting ASTM D975 grade 5-15) is required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. **
- ** The 2007 Ram Truck Cab and Chassis (DC) vehicle is equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. This
vehicle is to use Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel. Due to limited availability of Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel, during the initial production of this vehicle, Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) may be used ONLY until Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
becomes readily available and fuel pumps that dispense Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel are
required to be labelled as such. This is expected to occur around October 15, 2006. **
- ** Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm
of sulfur or less) are required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine. **
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown
sulfur and water content and unknown cetane number may adversely affect the performance of the
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Filters > Fuel Filter > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Fuel System - Heavy Duty MOPAR Filtration Kit Retrofit > Page 2683
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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify
that the water sensor probes in the final filter have 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 I water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table shown.

- Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications 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.
- It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris and water contamination.
- The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

Warning
Hose/Line HVAC: Service Precautions Warning
WARNING
WARNING: The A/C system contains refrigerant under high pressure. Repairs should only be
performed by qualified service personnel. Serious or fatal injury may result from improper service
procedures.
WARNING: Avoid breathing the refrigerant and refrigerant oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate
the eyes, nose, and/or throat. Wear eye protection when servicing the A/C refrigerant system.
Serious eye injury can result from direct contact with the refrigerant. If eye contact occurs, seek
medical attention immediately.
WARNING: Do not expose the refrigerant to open flame. Poisonous gas is created when refrigerant
is burned. An electronic leak detector is recommended. Serious or fatal injury may result from
improper service procedures.
WARNING: If accidental A/C system discharge occurs, ventilate the work area before resuming
service. Large amounts of refrigerant released in a closed work area will displace the oxygen and
cause suffocation and serious or fatal injury.
WARNING: The evaporation rate of R-134a refrigerant at average temperature and altitude is
extremely high. As a result, anything that comes in contact with the refrigerant will freeze. Always
protect the skin or delicate objects from direct contact with the refrigerant.
WARNING: The R-134a service equipment or the vehicle refrigerant system should not be
pressure tested or leak tested with compressed air. Some mixtures of air and R-134a have been
shown to 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.
WARNING: The engine cooling system is designed to develop internal pressures up to 145 kilo
pascals (21 pounds per square inch). Do not remove or loosen the coolant pressure cap, cylinder
block drain plugs, radiator drain, radiator hoses, heater hoses, or hose clamps while the engine
cooling system is hot and under pressure. Allow the vehicle to cool for a minimum of 15 minutes
before opening the cooling system for service. Failure to observe this warning can result in serious
burns from the heated engine coolant.

Hose/Line HVAC: Service Precautions Caution
CAUTION
CAUTION: Never add R-12 to a refrigerant system designed to use R-134a. Do not use R-12
equipment or parts on an R-134a A/C system. These refrigerants are not compatible and damage
to the A/C system will result.
CAUTION: Never use R-12 refrigerant oil in an A/C system designed to use R-134a refrigerant oil.
These refrigerant oils are not compatible and damage to the A/C system will result.
CAUTION: The use of A/C system sealers may result in damage to A/C refrigerant
recovery/evacuation/recharging equipment and/or A/C system. Many federal, state/provincial and
local regulations prohibit the recharge of A/C systems with known leaks. DaimlerChrysler
recommends the detection of A/C system leaks through the use of approved leak detectors and
fluorescent leak detection dyes. Vehicles found with A/C system sealers should be treated as
contaminated and replacement of the entire A/C refrigerant system is recommended. A/C systems
found to be contaminated with A/C system sealers, A/C stop-leak products or seal conditioners
voids the warranty for the A/C system.
CAUTION: Recover the refrigerant before opening any fitting or connection. Open the fittings with
caution, even after the system has been discharged. Never open or loosen a connection before
recovering the refrigerant.
CAUTION: If equipped, do not remove the secondary retention clip from any spring-lock coupler
connection while the refrigerant system is under pressure. Recover the refrigerant before removing
the secondary retention clip. Open the fittings with caution, even after the system has been
discharged. Never open or loosen a connection before recovering the refrigerant.
CAUTION: The internal parts of the A/C system will remain stable as long as moisture-free
refrigerant and refrigerant oil is used. Abnormal amounts of dirt, moisture or air can upset the
chemical stability. This may cause operational troubles or even serious damage if present in more
than very small quantities. Before disconnecting a component, clean the outside of the fittings
thoroughly to prevent contamination from entering the refrigerant system. Keep service tools and
the work area clean. Do not open the refrigerant system or uncap a replacement component until
you are ready to service the system. Immediately after disconnecting a component from the
refrigerant system, seal the open fittings with a cap or plug. This will prevent contamination from
entering the A/C system.
CAUTION: Refrigerant oil will absorb moisture from the atmosphere if left uncapped. Do not open a
container of refrigerant oil until you are ready to use it. Replace the cap on the oil container
immediately after using. Store refrigerant oil only in a clean, airtight, and moisture-free container.
CAUTION: Do not overcharge the refrigerant system. Overcharging will cause excessive
compressor head pressure and can cause compressor noise and A/C system failure.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The A/C refrigerant lines and hoses are used to carry the refrigerant between the various A/C
system components. The refrigerant lines and hoses for the R-134a A/C system consist of a
barrier-hose design with a nylon tube sandwiched between rubber layers. The nylon tube helps to
contain the R-134a refrigerant, which has a small molecular structure. The ends of the refrigerant
lines are made from lightweight aluminum and braze-less fittings.
Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant lines and hoses will reduce the capacity of the entire
A/C system and can reduce the flow of refrigerant within the system.
Operation
OPERATION
High pressures are produced in the refrigerant system when the A/C compressor is operating.
Extreme care must be exercised to make sure that each of the refrigerant system connections is
pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good practice to inspect all flexible refrigerant hoses at least
once a year to make sure they are in good condition.
The refrigerant lines and hoses are coupled to other A/C system components with block-type
fittings. An O-ring seal, or a flat steel gasket with an integral O-ring (dual plane seal), is used to
mate the refrigerant line fittings with A/C system components to ensure the integrity of the
refrigerant system.
The refrigerant lines and hoses cannot be repaired and must be replaced if leaking or damaged.

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: Description and Operation
BRAKE FLUID
The brake fluid used in this vehicle must conform to DOT 3 specifications and SAE J1703
standards. No other type of brake fluid is recommended or approved for usage in the vehicle brake
system. Use only Mopar brake fluid or an equivalent from a tightly sealed container.
CAUTION: Never use reclaimed brake fluid or fluid from a container which has been left open. An
open container of brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air and contaminate the fluid.
CAUTION: Never use any type of a petroleum-based fluid in the brake hydraulic system. Use of
such type fluids will result in seal damage of the vehicle brake hydraulic system causing a failure of
the vehicle brake system. Petroleum based fluids would be items such as engine oil, transmission
fluid, power steering fluid, etc.

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
Mopar Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula HOAT (Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology) or equivalent.
NOTE: 50/50 Ethylene-Glycol and Distilled 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°C (-90° F). A higher percentage will freeze in
warmer temperature. Also a higher percentage of antifreeze can cause the engine to overheat
because the specific heat of antifreeze is lower than that of water.
NOTE: 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 looses color
or becomes contaminated, drain, flush and replace with fresh properly mixed coolant solution.
CAUTION: Do not use coolant additives that are claimed to improve cooling.
CAUTION: Mopar 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
coolant, may result in engine damage that may not be covered under the new vehicle warranty,
and decreased corrosion protection.

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.
ETHYLENE-GLYCOL MIXTURES
CAUTION: Richer antifreeze mixtures cannot be measured with normal field equipment and can
cause problems associated with 100 percent ethylene-glycol.
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Only Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year 100,000 Mile Formula (ethylene-glycol base
coolant with corrosion inhibitors called HOAT, for Hybrid Additive Technology) is recommended.
This coolant offers the best engine cooling without corrosion when mixed with 50% distilled water
to obtain a freeze point of -37°C (-35°F).
The required ethylene-glycol (antifreeze) and water mixture depends upon the climate and vehicle
operating conditions. The antifreeze concentration must always be a minimum of 44 percent,
year-round in all climates. If percentage is lower than 44 percent, engine parts may be eroded by
cavitation, and cooling system components may be severely damaged by corrosion. Maximum
protection against freezing is provided with a 68% 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 the specific heat of
antifreeze is lower than that of water.
Use of 100 percent ethylene-glycol will cause formation of additive deposits in the system, as the
corrosion inhibitive additives in ethylene-glycol require the presence of water to dissolve. The
deposits act as insulation, causing temperatures to rise to as high as 149°C (300°F). This
temperature is hot enough to melt plastic and soften solder. The increased temperature can result
in engine detonation. In addition, 100 percent ethylene-glycol freezes at 22°C (-8°F).
PROPYLENE-GLYCOL MIXTURES
It's overall effective temperature range is smaller than that of ethylene-glycol. The freeze point of
50/50 propylene-glycol and water is -32°C (-26°F). 5° C higher than ethylene-glycol's freeze point.
The boiling point (protection against summer boil-over) of propylene-glycol is 125°C (257°F) at 96.5
kPa (14 psi), compared to 128°C (263°F) for ethylene-glycol. Use of propylene-glycol can result in
boil-over or freeze-up on a cooling system designed for ethylene-glycol. Propylene- glycol also has
poorer heat transfer characteristics than ethylene-glycol. This can increase cylinder head
temperatures under certain conditions.
Propylene-glycol/ethylene-glycol Mixtures can cause the destabilization of various corrosion
inhibitors, causing damage to the various cooling system components. Also, once ethylene-glycol
and propylene-glycol based coolants are mixed in the vehicle, conventional methods of determining
freeze point will not be accurate. Both the refractive index and specific gravity differ between
ethylene glycol and propylene-glycol.
HOAT Coolant
HOAT 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
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))

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 and soften solder. The increased temperature can result in engine detonation. 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.
COOLANT SELECTION AND ADDITIVES
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Only Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (glycol base coolant
with corrosion inhibitors called HOAT, for Hybrid Organic Additive Technology) is recommended.
This coolant offers the best engine cooling without corrosion when mixed with 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: Do not use coolant additives that are claimed to improve engine cooling.

Coolant: Description and Operation 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 is 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.

Transmission (CVT) and WG vehicles equipped with a diesel engine (sales code ENF) and a
W5J400 or NAG1 transmission (sales code DGJ).
DISCUSSION:
ATF+4(R) - (Type 9602) is being used as factory fill for Chrysler Group automatic transmissions.
ATF+4(R) is recommended for all vehicles equipped with Chrysler Group automatic transmissions
EXCEPT FOR THOSE LISTED IN THE NOTE ABOVE.
NOTE:
ATF+4(R) must always be used in vehicles that were originally filled with ATF+4(R). DO NOT USE
ANY OTHER FLUID.
NOTE:
ATF+4(R) is backward compatible with ATF+3, ATF+2, and ATF+. Additionally, ATF+4(R) can be
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.

ATF+4(R) - (Type 9602) is being used as factory fill for Chrysler Group automatic transmissions.
ATF+4(R) is recommended for all vehicles equipped with Chrysler Group automatic transmissions
EXCEPT FOR THOSE NOTED ABOVE.
NOTE:
ATF+4(R) must always be used in vehicles that were originally filled with ATF+4(R). DO NOT USE
ANY OTHER FLUID.
NOTE:
ATF+4(R) is backward compatible with ATF+3, ATF+2, and ATF+. Additionally, ATF+4 can be
used to top off vehicles that used ATF+3, ATF+2, or ATF+.
NOTE:
If ATF+4(R) 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.

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 (All but AISIN Transmission) Mopar ATF +4 Automatic
Transmission Fluid
AISIN TRANSMISSION Mopar AS68RC Automatic Transmission Fluid
Dexron II fluid IS NOT recommended. Clutch chatter can result from the use of improper fluid.
NOTE: Mopar ATF +4 and AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluids when new are 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 and AS68RC, also have 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.
DaimlerChrysler 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 DaimlerChrysler 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.

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
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.
FILL TUBE EQUIPPED WITH INDICATOR
NOTE: Engine and Transmission should be at normal operating temperature before performing this
procedure. After the fluid has been checked, seat the dipstick fully to seal out water and dirt.
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. Hook up 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

10. Check transmission for leaks.
CAPPED FILL TUBE
1. Verify that the vehicle is parked on a level surface. 2. Remove the dipstick tube cap.
WARNING: There is a risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine is running.
There is a risk of injury from contusions and burns if you insert your hands into the engine when it
is started or when it is running. Secure vehicle to prevent it from moving off by itself. Wear properly
fastened and close-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts.
3. Actuate the service brake. Start engine and let it run at idle speed in selector lever position "P".
4. Shift through the transmission modes several times with the vehicle stationary and the engine
idling. 5. Warm up the transmission, wait at least 2 minutes and check the oil level with the engine
running. Push the Oil Dipstick 9336 into transmission fill
tube until the dipstick tip contacts the oil pan and pull out again, read off oil level, repeat if
necessary.
NOTE: The dipstick will protrude from the fill tube when installed.
6. Check transmission oil temperature using the appropriate scan tool.
NOTE: The true transmission oil temperature can only be read by a scan tool in REVERSE or any
forward gear position.
7. The transmission Oil Dipstick 9336 has indicator marks every 10 mm. Determine the height of
the oil level on the dipstick and using the height,
the transmission temperature, and the Transmission Fluid Graph, determine if the transmission oil
level is correct.

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.

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:
The axle fill holes on some Dodge Truck vehicle axles may be located considerably higher than the
actual fluid level. Filling the axle until the fluid comes out of the fill hole will over fill the axle, which
may cause fluid foaming. When checking fluid level or filling a rear axle with fluid, you must
measure the distance from the bottom of the fill hole to the top of the actual fluid level. This can
easily be accomplished using a pipe cleaner or piece of wire. Make a 90 degree bend in the wire 2
inches from the end. The wire can then be inserted into the axle fill hole to use as a dipstick.
Measure the distance from the bend to the oil level. The fluid levels for the axles are shown in the
table below.

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 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: 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.

ENGINE OIL SERVICE
WARNING: Hot oil can cause personal injury.
NOTE: Change engine oil and filter at intervals specified in the owner's manual.
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. 5. Install new oil filter. 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. 9. Fill the engine with the correct grade of new oil.
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.

Power Steering Fluid: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: It is normal that some pressure will build up inside the reservoir, especially, with a warm
vehicle. A slight popping noise upon removal of the cap is normal. The fluid level should read
between the ADD and the FULL COLD marks. When the fluid is hot it should read between ADD
and FULL HOT marks. Only add fluid when the vehicle is cold.
The recommended fluid for the power steering system is Mopar(R) ATF +4.
Mopar(R) ATF+4, when new is red in color. The ATF+4 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+4 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: Testing and Inspection
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.

Refrigerant: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
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.
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.

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). 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). 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 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.

REFRIGERANT SYSTEM RECOVERY
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and cautions for this system before performing the
following operation. 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. Refer to the operating
instructions supplied by the equipment manufacturer for the proper care and use of this equipment.

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.
2. Connect a suitable charging station, refrigerant recovery machine or a manifold gauge set with
vacuum pump and refrigerant recovery 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.

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.

Refrigerant Oil: Service and Repair
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. Refer to the
reclaim/recycling equipment manufacturers instructions.
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.
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.

DISCUSSION:
The Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is used to prevent battery discharge during shipping and long term
storage of the vehicles. The IOD fuse is located in the Total Integrated Power Module (TI PM). If
the fuse is not completely inserted partial contact of the fuse terminals could occur. When the
vehicle is prepped for customer delivery, ensure that the fuse is fully engaged (Fig. 1). The IOD
fuse must also be fully released to prevent battery drain from occurring when the vehicle is stored.
When the IOD fuse holder is depressed into the carrier, an initial distinct detent will be felt to
overcome the "pre-hold position". You must then continue to push straight down on the IOD
pre-holder until no further downward movement is encountered.
NOTE:
If the fuse is not pushed down symmetrically, two detents MAY be felt as each side snaps past the
pre-hold position. Push down until no further downward movement is encountered.
On 2006 and 2007 PT and PM vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, Security module
& siren (BUX), Wireless Control Module (RKE & SKREEM), Hands Free Module, Satellite Radio,
Power Mirrors, Clock, Memory Seat, Amplifier, CCN wake-up with ignition off and Homelink.
On 2006 and 2007 DR, DH or D1 vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, EVIC,

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.
- 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.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2944
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.
- 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.

Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2981
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). 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.

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). 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. Refer to the 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). 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.

Tires: Description and Operation Tire
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. 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 100 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. Refer to the Owner's Manual for more
information.

Tires: Description and Operation Radial - Ply Tires
RADIAL - PLY TIRES
Radial-ply tires improve handling, tread life and ride quality, and decrease rolling resistance.
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.

Tires: Description and Operation 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 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.

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.

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
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: Description and Operation Description - 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: Testing and Inspection
WHEEL INSPECTION
Inspect wheels for:
- Excessive runout
- Dents, cracks or irregular bends
- Damaged wheel stud (lug) holes
- Air Leaks
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 must 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.
WARNING: Replacement with used wheels is 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.

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: 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.

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.

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.

Engine Oil: Testing and Inspection
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: 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.

WARNING: Hot oil can cause personal injury.
NOTE: Change engine oil and filter at intervals specified in the owner's manual.
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. 5. Install new oil filter. 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. 9. Fill the engine with the correct grade of new oil.
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.

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An oil pressure gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. 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). For further diagnosis of the oil pressure gauge or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the gauge refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing. 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. 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.

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.
- 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

Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An oil pressure gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. 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). For further diagnosis of the oil pressure gauge or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the gauge refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing. 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. 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.

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 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.

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.
- 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.

Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3400
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.

*IN-TANK FUEL LIFT PUMP FLOW/DIAGNOSTIC TEST PROCEDURE
1. Using the Scan tool, check for DTCs. Troubleshoot any active DTCs before performing this test.
2. Disconnect the wiring harness from the lift pump at the fuel tank module connector and inspect
the pins for damage. Fix or replace any damaged component.
3. Connect a voltmeter between the fuel lift pump supply and return pins at the fuel tank module
connector.
4. Turn the ignition to the on position. Use the Scan tool to actuate the fuel lift pump, record the
voltage on the voltmeter.
5. If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, go to step 14. If the voltage is less than 11.5 volts, go to
step 6
6. Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage to determine that the voltage is greater than 11.5
volts. If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, go to step 7. If the voltage is not greater than 11.5
volts, troubleshoot for low battery voltage.
7. Remove the fuel lift pump relay from the PDC. Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage at the fuel
lift pump relay voltage supply pin in the PDC. If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, go to step 8.
If the voltage is not greater than 11.5 volts, fix or replace the harness.
8. Remove the fuel lift pump relay from the PDC. Install a spare relay in place of the fuel lift pump
relay. Using the Scan tool, actuate the fuel lift pump. Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage
between the fuel lift pump supply and return pins at the fuel tank module connector while the fuel
lift pump is actuated. If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, replace the 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

REMOVAL
Testing Air Cleaner Element using Filter Minder(TM)
Do not attempt to unnecessarily remove top of air cleaner housing for air cleaner element
inspection on diesel engines.
The air cleaner (filter) housing (5) is equipped with an air Filter Minder(TM) gauge (3). This air flow
restriction gauge will determine when air cleaner element is restricted and should be replaced.
The Filter Minder(TM) (5) consists of a diaphragm and calibrated spring sealed inside of a plastic
housing. A yellow colored disc (2) attached to diaphragm moves along a graduated scale on side of
Filter Minder. After the engine has been shut off, a ratcheting device located within Filter Minder will
hold yellow disc at highest restriction that air cleaner element has experienced. A drop in air
pressure due to an air cleaner element restriction moves diaphragm and yellow disc will indicate
size of air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners may discolor or damage plastic housing of Filter
Minder. Cover and tape Filter Minder if any engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn engine off. If yellow disc (2) has reached red colored zone (3) on graduated scale, air
cleaner element should be replaced. Refer to Removal / Installation.
Resetting Filter Minder: After air cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press rubber button on
top of Filter Minder. This will allow yellow

colored disc to reset. After button has been pressed, yellow disc should spring back to UP position.
If Filter Minder gauge has reached red colored zone, and after an examination of air cleaner (filter)
element, element appears to be clean, high reading may be due to a temporary condition such as
snow build-up at air intake. Temporary high restrictions may also occur if air cleaner (filter) element
has gotten wet such as during a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow element to dry out during
normal engine operation. Reset rubber button on top of Filter Minder and retest after element has
dried.
Filter Removal
1. The housing cover is equipped with spring clips and is hinged with plastic tabs. Unlatch clips
from top of air cleaner housing and tilt housing cover
up for cover removal.
2. Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner housing (5).

REGARDING FUELING OF EARLY BUILT 2007 RAM TRUCK CAB AND CHASSIS (DC)
VEHICLES.
SUBJECT: Fuel And Fuel Filtering Requirements For Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engines
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding fuel system requirements.
MODELS: 2006 - 2007
(DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (Heavy Duty)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L High Output or a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel
Engine (sales codes ETH or ETJ respectively) that were built on or after March 07, 2006 (MDH
0307XX).
DISCUSSION:
Current Fuel Systems:
- For the diesel engine system to operate at its peak performance a high level of fuel quality must
be maintained. Emission control and fuel delivery systems have advanced significantly. Care must
be taken to insure that the fuel that is delivered to the engine fuel injection system is of the highest
quality possible and free of contaminants.
- Significant components to fuel quality are: the initial quality of the fuel (as dispensed from the
service station fuel pump or bulk storage), on-vehicle fuel storage, and the on-vehicle fuel filtering
of the diesel fuel prior to the fuel injection process.
- Refer to the Owners Manual for fuel and fuel system information.
Proper Fuel And Fuel Quality:
- 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 and meeting ASTM D975 grade 5-15) is required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. **
- ** The 2007 Ram Truck Cab and Chassis (DC) vehicle is equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. This
vehicle is to use Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel. Due to limited availability of Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel, during the initial production of this vehicle, Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) may be used ONLY until Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
becomes readily available and fuel pumps that dispense Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel are
required to be labelled as such. This is expected to occur around October 15, 2006. **
- ** Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm
of sulfur or less) are required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine. **
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown
sulfur and water content and unknown cetane number may adversely affect the performance of the

Page 3438
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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify
that the water sensor probes in the final filter have 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 I water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table shown.

Page 3439
- Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications 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.
- It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris and water contamination.
- The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

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. 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/resetting is not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resetting is 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. 7. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be
measured at the remaining rocker arms: INTAKE 3-5-6 / EXHAUST 2-4-6. Use the same
method as above for determining whether adjustment is necessary, and adjust those that are found
to be outside of the limits.
8. Install the cylinder head cover. 9. Connect the battery negative cables.

Description
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.
Operation
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: Description and Operation Water Pump Bypass
Description
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 engine warm-up preventing the coolant from
flowing through the radiator.
Operation - 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.

ENGINE COOLANT
Mopar Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula HOAT (Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology) or equivalent.
NOTE: 50/50 Ethylene-Glycol and Distilled 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°C (-90° F). A higher percentage will freeze in
warmer temperature. Also a higher percentage of antifreeze can cause the engine to overheat
because the specific heat of antifreeze is lower than that of water.
NOTE: 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 looses color
or becomes contaminated, drain, flush and replace with fresh properly mixed coolant solution.
CAUTION: Do not use coolant additives that are claimed to improve cooling.
CAUTION: Mopar 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
coolant, may result in engine damage that may not be covered under the new vehicle warranty,
and decreased corrosion protection.

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.
ETHYLENE-GLYCOL MIXTURES
CAUTION: Richer antifreeze mixtures cannot be measured with normal field equipment and can
cause problems associated with 100 percent ethylene-glycol.
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Only Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year 100,000 Mile Formula (ethylene-glycol base
coolant with corrosion inhibitors called HOAT, for Hybrid Additive Technology) is recommended.
This coolant offers the best engine cooling without corrosion when mixed with 50% distilled water
to obtain a freeze point of -37°C (-35°F).
The required ethylene-glycol (antifreeze) and water mixture depends upon the climate and vehicle
operating conditions. The antifreeze concentration must always be a minimum of 44 percent,
year-round in all climates. If percentage is lower than 44 percent, engine parts may be eroded by
cavitation, and cooling system components may be severely damaged by corrosion. Maximum
protection against freezing is provided with a 68% 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 the specific heat of
antifreeze is lower than that of water.
Use of 100 percent ethylene-glycol will cause formation of additive deposits in the system, as the
corrosion inhibitive additives in ethylene-glycol require the presence of water to dissolve. The
deposits act as insulation, causing temperatures to rise to as high as 149°C (300°F). This
temperature is hot enough to melt plastic and soften solder. The increased temperature can result
in engine detonation. In addition, 100 percent ethylene-glycol freezes at 22°C (-8°F).
PROPYLENE-GLYCOL MIXTURES
It's overall effective temperature range is smaller than that of ethylene-glycol. The freeze point of
50/50 propylene-glycol and water is -32°C (-26°F). 5° C higher than ethylene-glycol's freeze point.
The boiling point (protection against summer boil-over) of propylene-glycol is 125°C (257°F) at 96.5
kPa (14 psi), compared to 128°C (263°F) for ethylene-glycol. Use of propylene-glycol can result in
boil-over or freeze-up on a cooling system designed for ethylene-glycol. Propylene- glycol also has
poorer heat transfer characteristics than ethylene-glycol. This can increase cylinder head
temperatures under certain conditions.
Propylene-glycol/ethylene-glycol Mixtures can cause the destabilization of various corrosion
inhibitors, causing damage to the various cooling system components. Also, once ethylene-glycol
and propylene-glycol based coolants are mixed in the vehicle, conventional methods of determining
freeze point will not be accurate. Both the refractive index and specific gravity differ between
ethylene glycol and propylene-glycol.
HOAT Coolant
HOAT 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
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))

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 and soften solder. The increased temperature can result in engine detonation. 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.
COOLANT SELECTION AND ADDITIVES
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and water pumps requires special corrosion
protection. Only Mopar(R) Antifreeze/Coolant, 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula (glycol base coolant
with corrosion inhibitors called HOAT, for Hybrid Organic Additive Technology) is recommended.
This coolant offers the best engine cooling without corrosion when mixed with 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: Do not use coolant additives that are claimed to improve engine cooling.

Coolant: Description and Operation 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 is 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.
- 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.

Fan Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3527
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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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). For further diagnosis of
the engine coolant temperature gauge or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the gauge
refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing. 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. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

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 3578
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. Refer to the following 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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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). For further diagnosis of
the engine coolant temperature gauge or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the gauge
refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing. 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. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

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.

CAUTION: Do not operate an engine without a thermostat, except for servicing or testing. An
engine with the thermostat removed will operate in the radiator bypass mode, causing an overheat
condition.
The thermostat of the diesel engine is located in the front of the cylinder head, underneath a heat
shield near the thermostat housing.
NOTE: The thermostat for 5.9L engine and the 6.7L are different and are not interchangeable. Use
caution when replacing the thermostat to ensure the proper part number is reinstalled.
An engine should not be operated without a thermostat, except for servicing or testing. Operating

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
All models are equipped with On-Board Diagnostics for certain cooling system components. Refer
to On-Board Diagnostics (OBD). If the 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. Refer to the appropriate Powertrain
Diagnostic Procedures information for diagnostic information and operation of the scan tool.

Thermostat: Testing and Inspection Diesel Engine
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. Refer to the literature supplied with the cover
for additional information.
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. 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.
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.

Description
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.
Operation
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: Description and Operation Water Pump Bypass
Description
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 engine warm-up preventing the coolant from
flowing through the radiator.
Operation - 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.

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.

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/Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) 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.
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
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - 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 - ENGINE Testing.

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.
- 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.

^ Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), 2007 & 2008 MY.
^ If CCN is updated; provide a Customer Information Sheet explaining the overhead display
messages.
^ One of several software changes allows for "Net Zero" and "Net Reduction" which will cause
noticeable changes in idle speeds. Customers should be informed of these changes. They are
explained in DISCUSSION,
Improvements that address erroneous MIL illumination for DTC P0106, P0191, P2262 and P2299
DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

3853
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 3886
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 3953
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

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.

Circuit Functions
DESCRIPTION - CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric code to identify the wire and it's function. To
identify which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the Circuit Identification Code Chart. This
chart shows the main circuits only and does not show the secondary codes that may apply to some
models.

- 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
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 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.

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.
- 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.

Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 4078
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 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).
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)
- Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)
- Data link connection for a scan tool
- Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
- EATX module (if equipped)
- Fuel level
- Fuel pressure sensor
- Fan speed (engine cooling fan)
- Generator (battery voltage) output
- Governor pressure (Auto. trans.)
- Ground circuits
- Inlet air temperature sensor/pressure sensor
- Intake air temperature sensor/MAP sensor
- CAN C BUS (+) circuits
- CAN C BUS (-) circuits
- Key switch (ignition)
- Oil Pressure switch
- Overdrive switch (automatic transmission only)
- Park/neutral switch (auto. trans. only)
- Power ground
- SCI datalink bus (+) circuits
- SCI datalink bus (-) circuits
- Sensor return
- Signal ground
- Speed control multiplexed single wire input
- Transfer case switch (4WD range position)
- Transmission governor psi (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission OSS (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission oil pressure (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission oil temperature (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission throttle valve position (automatic transmission only)
- Vehicle speed signal
- Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor
NOTE: ECM Outputs:
After inputs are received by the ECM, certain sensors, switches and components are controlled or
regulated by the ECM. These are considered ECM Outputs. These outputs are for:
- A/C clutch relay
- Auto shutdown (ASD) relay
- Data link connection for diagnostic scan tool
- Fan clutch PWM

Engine Control Module: Testing and Inspection PCM/ECM Programming
PCM/ECM REPROGRAMMING
MODULE REPROGRAMING
Replacement PCM's will require programming utilizing the StarSCAN(R) or equivalent. The PCM
will not operate the engine until it is programmed. A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set "not programmed".
CAUTION: Extreme care must be taken when programming a calibration into a generic PCM. Do
not randomly select a calibration. Once a calibration is selected and programmed, the controller
cannot be reprogrammed to a different calibration. The module can only be reprogrammed to a
more recent version of that calibration.
SPECIAL TOOLS/EQUIPMENT OR EQUIVALENT REQUIRED:
**REPAIR PROCEDURE - USING THE INTERNET TO RETRIEVE THE FLASH FILE:
NOTE: The StarSCAN(R) or equivalent diagnostic scan tool fully supports Internet connectivity.
However, in order to take advantage of this feature you must first configure the StarSCAN(R) or
equivalent for your dealership's network.

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:
1. Program the new PCM/ECM.
2. Program the new SKREEM/WCM.
3. Replace all ignition keys and program them into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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: Be certain to enter the correct country code for the SKREEM/WCM. If the incorrect country
code is programmed into the SKREEM, it cannot be changed and the SKREEM must be replaced.
NOTE: In addition, the SKREEM/WCM must be configured for certain optional equipment in the
vehicle, including Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM), Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and Remote Start.
Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool under MISCELLANEOUS
FUNCTIONS for the WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: A replacement SKREEM/WCM is supplied with TPM enabled by default; therefore, if the
vehicle is not equipped with TPM, the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) will incorrectly
learn that the vehicle has TPM after the replacement SKREEM is installed. The TPM indicator in
the EMIC will illuminate to show a TPM fault condition after TPM has been disabled in the
SKREEM. The EMIC must unlearn TPM to correct this false TPM indication. Follow the
programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for CLEAR LEARNED FEATURES under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the INSTRUMENT CLUSTER menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: If the PCM/ECM and the SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle ignition
keys will need to be replaced and the new keys programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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.
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: 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

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.
- 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.

Modules - Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Pump Relay > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 4165
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

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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Crankcase Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
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.

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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Description > Page 4419
Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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.
- 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.

Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Oil Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 4479
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.

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.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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.

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.

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
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 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.

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.
- 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.

Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Vehicle Speed Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 4707
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.

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.

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

REMOVAL
Testing Air Cleaner Element using Filter Minder(TM)
Do not attempt to unnecessarily remove top of air cleaner housing for air cleaner element
inspection on diesel engines.
The air cleaner (filter) housing (5) is equipped with an air Filter Minder(TM) gauge (3). This air flow
restriction gauge will determine when air cleaner element is restricted and should be replaced.
The Filter Minder(TM) (5) consists of a diaphragm and calibrated spring sealed inside of a plastic
housing. A yellow colored disc (2) attached to diaphragm moves along a graduated scale on side of
Filter Minder. After the engine has been shut off, a ratcheting device located within Filter Minder will
hold yellow disc at highest restriction that air cleaner element has experienced. A drop in air
pressure due to an air cleaner element restriction moves diaphragm and yellow disc will indicate
size of air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners may discolor or damage plastic housing of Filter
Minder. Cover and tape Filter Minder if any engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn engine off. If yellow disc (2) has reached red colored zone (3) on graduated scale, air
cleaner element should be replaced. Refer to Removal / Installation.
Resetting Filter Minder: After air cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press rubber button on
top of Filter Minder. This will allow yellow

colored disc to reset. After button has been pressed, yellow disc should spring back to UP position.
If Filter Minder gauge has reached red colored zone, and after an examination of air cleaner (filter)
element, element appears to be clean, high reading may be due to a temporary condition such as
snow build-up at air intake. Temporary high restrictions may also occur if air cleaner (filter) element
has gotten wet such as during a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow element to dry out during
normal engine operation. Reset rubber button on top of Filter Minder and retest after element has
dried.
Filter Removal
1. The housing cover is equipped with spring clips and is hinged with plastic tabs. Unlatch clips
from top of air cleaner housing and tilt housing cover
up for cover removal.
2. Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner housing (5).

REGARDING FUELING OF EARLY BUILT 2007 RAM TRUCK CAB AND CHASSIS (DC)
VEHICLES.
SUBJECT: Fuel And Fuel Filtering Requirements For Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engines
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding fuel system requirements.
MODELS: 2006 - 2007
(DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (Heavy Duty)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L High Output or a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel
Engine (sales codes ETH or ETJ respectively) that were built on or after March 07, 2006 (MDH
0307XX).
DISCUSSION:
Current Fuel Systems:
- For the diesel engine system to operate at its peak performance a high level of fuel quality must
be maintained. Emission control and fuel delivery systems have advanced significantly. Care must
be taken to insure that the fuel that is delivered to the engine fuel injection system is of the highest
quality possible and free of contaminants.
- Significant components to fuel quality are: the initial quality of the fuel (as dispensed from the
service station fuel pump or bulk storage), on-vehicle fuel storage, and the on-vehicle fuel filtering
of the diesel fuel prior to the fuel injection process.
- Refer to the Owners Manual for fuel and fuel system information.
Proper Fuel And Fuel Quality:
- 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 and meeting ASTM D975 grade 5-15) is required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. **
- ** The 2007 Ram Truck Cab and Chassis (DC) vehicle is equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. This
vehicle is to use Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel. Due to limited availability of Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel, during the initial production of this vehicle, Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) may be used ONLY until Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
becomes readily available and fuel pumps that dispense Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel are
required to be labelled as such. This is expected to occur around October 15, 2006. **
- ** Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm
of sulfur or less) are required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine. **
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown
sulfur and water content and unknown cetane number may adversely affect the performance of the
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))

4934
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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify

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. 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/resetting is not necessary. If measurement finds the lash outside of the limits,
adjustment/resetting is required.

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.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Battery Temperature Sensor - Description > Page 5044
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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Body Control Module >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5069
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.

OPERATION
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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Sensor/Switch (For Computer) > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 5134
Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

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.
- 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.

Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5206
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.

Electronic Throttle Control Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, on vehicles not equipped with the optional 5.7 liter gasoline engine, this indicator is
electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
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). 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.

^ If CCN is updated; provide a Customer Information Sheet explaining the overhead display
messages.
^ One of several software changes allows for "Net Zero" and "Net Reduction" which will cause
noticeable changes in idle speeds. Customers should be informed of these changes. They are
explained in DISCUSSION,
Improvements that address erroneous MIL illumination for DTC P0106, P0191, P2262 and P2299
DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

DISCUSSION:
Cab chassis trucks equipped with a 6.7L Cummins diesel have a number of software
improvements available. This latest Service Bulletin (SB) will include improvements to prevent
erroneous Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination:
^ P000F - Fuel System Over Pressure Relief Valve Activated

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest: > 18-020-10 > Jun > 10 > Engine Controls Engine Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 5254
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

c. 2009 & 2010 MY vehicles came equipped with proper CCN software.
6. Is the part number of the current CCN level software at (or higher) than one of the software part
numbers listed in Step # 5?
a. If YES >>> then the CCN DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this
on the repair order for later reference. Proceed
to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
b. If NO >>> then the CCN DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Engine Control Module: >
18-020-10 > Jun > 10 > Engine Controls - Engine Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 5287
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.
2007 GRAND CHEROKEE W/ 3.0L TD/2005 - 2007 LIBERTY w/2.8L TD/2007 RAM TRUCK/RAM
CAB CHASSIS w 6.7L TD AND 2004-2006 SPRINTER w 2.7L TD ENGINES.
For the above models equipped with Turbo Diesel Engines, the fuel injector "Quantity Values" must
be physically read from each injector and the values written to the ECU with an appropriate scan
tool.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

Depending on the situation, there are two methods for initializing the PCM/ECM. Either Automatic
Replacement or Service Replacement must be performed. Automatic Replacement uploads the
data from the old controller and downloads data to the new controller when the part numbers are
identical between the replacement and replaced controller. Service Replacement is used when part
numbers are not identical or when the part number is not recognized by the DRBIII(R).

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.
- 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.

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:
1. Program the new PCM/ECM.
2. Program the new SKREEM/WCM.
3. Replace all ignition keys and program them into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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: Be certain to enter the correct country code for the SKREEM/WCM. If the incorrect country
code is programmed into the SKREEM, it cannot be changed and the SKREEM must be replaced.
NOTE: In addition, the SKREEM/WCM must be configured for certain optional equipment in the
vehicle, including Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM), Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and Remote Start.
Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool under MISCELLANEOUS
FUNCTIONS for the WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: A replacement SKREEM/WCM is supplied with TPM enabled by default; therefore, if the
vehicle is not equipped with TPM, the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) will incorrectly
learn that the vehicle has TPM after the replacement SKREEM is installed. The TPM indicator in
the EMIC will illuminate to show a TPM fault condition after TPM has been disabled in the
SKREEM. The EMIC must unlearn TPM to correct this false TPM indication. Follow the
programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for CLEAR LEARNED FEATURES under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the INSTRUMENT CLUSTER menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: If the PCM/ECM and the SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle ignition
keys will need to be replaced and the new keys programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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.
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: 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.

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.

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.
- 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.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5582
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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Knock Sensor > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 5592
Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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.

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 5605
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). 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. 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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Oil Pressure Sensor >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5665
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.

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.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

> Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 5821
Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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.
- 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.

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 5849
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.

Customer Interest: > 18-020-10 > Jun > 10 > Engine Controls - Engine Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 5886
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 5919
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.
2007 GRAND CHEROKEE W/ 3.0L TD/2005 - 2007 LIBERTY w/2.8L TD/2007 RAM TRUCK/RAM
CAB CHASSIS w 6.7L TD AND 2004-2006 SPRINTER w 2.7L TD ENGINES.
For the above models equipped with Turbo Diesel Engines, the fuel injector "Quantity Values" must
be physically read from each injector and the values written to the ECU with an appropriate scan
tool.

^ Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Engine Control Module (PCM), 2007 - 2010 MY.
^ Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), 2007 & 2008 MY.
^ If CCN is updated; provide a Customer Information Sheet explaining the overhead display
messages.
^ One of several software changes allows for "Net Zero" and "Net Reduction" which will cause
noticeable changes in idle speeds. Customers should be informed of these changes. They are
explained in DISCUSSION,
Improvements that address erroneous MIL illumination for DTC P0106, P0191, P2262 and P2299
DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

Enhancements > Page 5986
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

GROUP: Vehicle Performance
DATE: April 26, 2007
SUBJECT: Engine Off-Idle Speed Limit Feature To Protect Turbocharger When Vehicle Is Not
Moving
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding an engine control feature that limits
engine off-idle speeds when the vehicle is not moving.
MODELS:
2004 - 2007 (DR/DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (2500/3500)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sale
codes: ETC, ETH, or ETJ).
DISCUSSION:
Dependent upon engine coolant temperature, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will temporarily
delay (limit) the maximum engine speed when the vehicle is not moving. For automatic
transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is temporarily delayed when the
vehicle speed is less than one mph, and when the transmission selector is in either the neutral or
park position. For manual transmission equipped vehicles, the maximum engine speed is
temporarily delayed when the vehicle speed is less than one mph. This ECM feature is used to
protect the engine turbocharger.
By temporarily limiting the vehicle engine speed, the shaft speed of the engine turbocharger is
controlled to a low speed. This delay in maximum engine and turbo-charger shaft speed allows for
sufficient oil lubrication to the turbocharger shaft bearings. Satisfactory oil lubrication of the
turbocharger shaft bearings is important for long term turbocharger durability.
The maximum engine speed for the 5.9L engine is temporarily limited to 1,600 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The 6.7L engine speed is temporarily limited to 1,200 RPM's when the
above conditions are met. The length of time that the maximum engine speed is temporarily limited
is dependent upon engine coolant temperature. Refer to the table to determine the amount of Time
Delay.
NOTE:
The time delay values supplied in the table are an approximation and may vary per application.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

NOTE:
The model years and vehicles above must be equipped (optional) with Sentry Key Theft Deterrent
System (sales code GXX) for this bulletin to apply.
DISCUSSION:
ALL LISTED VEHICLES EXCEPT SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST), CROSSFIRE, AND
SPRINTER.
When a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is replaced on vehicles equipped with the Sentry
Key(TM) Theft Deterrent System, it must be initialized to properly function with the anti-theft
module. This is accomplished at a Chrysler Group Dealer by using the DRBIII(R) or StarSCAN(TM)
Scan Tool to enter a PIN number.
When the PIN number is not available from the vehicle owner or a Chrysler Group Scan Tool(s) is
not available this can be accomplished by writing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into the
PCM using an after-market scan tool with a "VIN Write Function".
More information is available from the scan tool manufacturer or the Equipment & Tool Institute.
NOTE:
After performing this procedure with an after-market scan tool on vehicles equipped with Chrysler
Group's Next Generation Controller (NGC), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) "P0633 - SKIM
SECRET KEY DATA NOT STORED IN PCM" will be set. This DTC will not effect vehicle or system
performance and cannot be erased.
SEBRING COUPE/STRATUS COUPE (ST)
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
J1962 MMC Cable (Special Tool CH7010), and the BLUE 5T22 PCMCIA
Diagnostic Card (Special Tool CH8425). This equipment is available for lease from
DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be required.
CROSSFIRE AND SPRINTER.
Initializing the PCM on these vehicles requires the use of a DaimlerChrysler scan tool (DRBIII(R)),
Multiplexer cable box (Special Tool CH 9043), and the ORANGE Crossfire PCMCIA card (Special
Tool CH9044) or the GREEN Sprinter PCMCIA card (Special Tool CH9087). This equipment is
available for lease from DaimlerChrysler for short periods of time. A credit card deposit will be
required.
The DRBIII(R) will be shipped within 24 hours to your location by an overnight delivery service.
When the DRBIII(R) is returned, your credit card will be charged the lease price.

Warnings
WARNINGS - GENERAL
WARNINGS: provide information to prevent personal injury and vehicle damage. Below is a list of
general warnings that should be followed any time a vehicle is being serviced.
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
WARNING: Use safety stands anytime a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
WARNING: Be sure that the ignition switch always is in the off position, unless the procedure
requires it to be on.
WARNING: Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should
be in park. A manual transmission should be in neutral.
WARNING: Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area.
WARNING: Keep away from moving parts when the engine is running, especially the fan and belts.

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

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 contains splice diagrams that are not shown in their entirety somewhere else in
the wiring diagrams.

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.
- 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.

and Instructions > Page 6111
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 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).
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)
- Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)
- Data link connection for a scan tool
- Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
- EATX module (if equipped)
- Fuel level
- Fuel pressure sensor
- Fan speed (engine cooling fan)
- Generator (battery voltage) output
- Governor pressure (Auto. trans.)
- Ground circuits
- Inlet air temperature sensor/pressure sensor
- Intake air temperature sensor/MAP sensor
- CAN C BUS (+) circuits
- CAN C BUS (-) circuits
- Key switch (ignition)
- Oil Pressure switch
- Overdrive switch (automatic transmission only)
- Park/neutral switch (auto. trans. only)
- Power ground
- SCI datalink bus (+) circuits
- SCI datalink bus (-) circuits
- Sensor return
- Signal ground
- Speed control multiplexed single wire input
- Transfer case switch (4WD range position)
- Transmission governor psi (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission OSS (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission oil pressure (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission oil temperature (automatic transmission only)
- Transmission throttle valve position (automatic transmission only)
- Vehicle speed signal
- Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor
NOTE: ECM Outputs:
After inputs are received by the ECM, certain sensors, switches and components are controlled or
regulated by the ECM. These are considered ECM Outputs. These outputs are for:
- A/C clutch relay
- Auto shutdown (ASD) relay
- Data link connection for diagnostic scan tool
- Fan clutch PWM

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:
1. Program the new PCM/ECM.
2. Program the new SKREEM/WCM.
3. Replace all ignition keys and program them into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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: Be certain to enter the correct country code for the SKREEM/WCM. If the incorrect country
code is programmed into the SKREEM, it cannot be changed and the SKREEM must be replaced.
NOTE: In addition, the SKREEM/WCM must be configured for certain optional equipment in the
vehicle, including Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM), Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and Remote Start.
Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool under MISCELLANEOUS
FUNCTIONS for the WCM/WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: A replacement SKREEM/WCM is supplied with TPM enabled by default; therefore, if the
vehicle is not equipped with TPM, the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) will incorrectly
learn that the vehicle has TPM after the replacement SKREEM is installed. The TPM indicator in
the EMIC will illuminate to show a TPM fault condition after TPM has been disabled in the
SKREEM. The EMIC must unlearn TPM to correct this false TPM indication. Follow the
programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for CLEAR LEARNED FEATURES under
MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS for the INSTRUMENT CLUSTER menu item as appropriate.
NOTE: If the PCM/ECM and the SKREEM/WCM are replaced at the same time, all vehicle ignition
keys will need to be replaced and the new keys programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM.
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.
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: 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

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 > Page 6213
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.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is used to sense engine coolant temperature. The
sensor protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine
coolant temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor decreases. As temperature
decreases, resistance (voltage) in the sensor increases.

Description and Operation > Description > Page 6243
Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT
sensor. The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes through the ECT sensor to the sensor
ground (sensor return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer
air-fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the following calculations:
- for engine coolant temperature gauge operation through CAN Bus communications
- Injector pulse-width
- Spark-advance curves
- ASD relay shut-down times
- Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
- Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
- O2 sensor closed loop times
- Purge solenoid on/off times
- Cooling fan control
- Temperature gauge operation
- A/C cutoff at high coolant temperatures
- EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
- Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
- Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
- Target idle speed

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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Crankcase Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation
OPERATION
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.

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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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.

Circuit Functions
DESCRIPTION - CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric code to identify the wire and it's function. To
identify which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the Circuit Identification Code Chart. This
chart shows the main circuits only and does not show the secondary codes that may apply to some
models.

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
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 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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Sensors and Switches Computers and Control Systems > Oil Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 6466
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.

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.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

> Description > Page 6619
Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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

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.
- 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.

Instructions > Page 6694
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.

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.

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 contains splice diagrams that are not shown in their entirety somewhere else in
the wiring diagrams.

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.
- 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.

Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6764
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 Pressure Differential Sensor: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor is remotely mounted on the transmission housing. Two
pressure tubes measure pressure before and after the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)/Diesel
Oxidation Catalyst (DOC). The sensor is critical for fail-safe of regeneration strategy, because it
interprets high pressure drops as possible high soot loads.

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.

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/Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) 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.
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
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - 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 - ENGINE Testing.

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:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.

Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.

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

Crankcase Filter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 6983
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.

PCV FILTER
The crankcase breather/filter is no longer used with the 3.9L, 5.2L or 5.9L engine.
PCV VALVE
All 3.9L V-6 and 5.2L/5.9L V-8 gas powered engines are equipped with a closed crankcase
ventilation system and a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve. The 8.0L V-10 engine is not
equipped with a PCV valve. Refer to Crankcase Ventilation System-8.0L V-10 Engine for
information.
Fig. 4 Typical PCV Valve/Hose (Non-California Shown)
This system consists of a PCV valve mounted on the cylinder head (valve) cover with a hose
extending from the valve to the intake manifold. Another hose connects the opposite cylinder head
(valve) cover to the air cleaner housing to provide a source of clean air for the system. A separate
crankcase breather/filter is not used.
Fig. 5 Typical Closed Crankcase Ventilation System
The PCV system operates by engine intake manifold vacuum. Filtered air is routed into the
crankcase through the air cleaner hose. The metered air, along with crankcase vapors, are drawn
through the PCV valve and into a passage in the intake manifold. The PCV system manages
crankcase

pressure and meters blow by gases to the intake system, reducing engine sludge formation.
The PCV valve contains a spring loaded plunger. This plunger meters the amount of crankcase
vapors routed into the combustion chamber based on intake manifold vacuum.
Fig. 6 Engine Off Or Engine Pop-Back - No Vapor Flow
When the engine is not operating or during an engine pop-back, the spring forces the plunger back
against the seat. This will prevent vapors from flowing through the valve.
Fig. 7 High Intake Manifold Vacuum - Minimal Vapor Flow
During periods of high manifold vacuum, such as idle or cruising speeds, vacuum is sufficient to
completely compress spring. It will then pull the plunger to the top of the valve. In this position there
is minimal vapor flow through the valve.
Fig. 8 High Intake Manifold Vacuum - Maximum Vapor Flow
During periods of moderate manifold vacuum, the plunger is only pulled part way back from inlet.
This results in maximum vapor flow through the valve.

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.

REMOVAL
Testing Air Cleaner Element using Filter Minder(TM)
Do not attempt to unnecessarily remove top of air cleaner housing for air cleaner element
inspection on diesel engines.
The air cleaner (filter) housing (5) is equipped with an air Filter Minder(TM) gauge (3). This air flow
restriction gauge will determine when air cleaner element is restricted and should be replaced.
The Filter Minder(TM) (5) consists of a diaphragm and calibrated spring sealed inside of a plastic
housing. A yellow colored disc (2) attached to diaphragm moves along a graduated scale on side of
Filter Minder. After the engine has been shut off, a ratcheting device located within Filter Minder will
hold yellow disc at highest restriction that air cleaner element has experienced. A drop in air
pressure due to an air cleaner element restriction moves diaphragm and yellow disc will indicate
size of air drop.
CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners may discolor or damage plastic housing of Filter
Minder. Cover and tape Filter Minder if any engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn engine off. If yellow disc (2) has reached red colored zone (3) on graduated scale, air
cleaner element should be replaced. Refer to Removal / Installation.
Resetting Filter Minder: After air cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press rubber button on
top of Filter Minder. This will allow yellow

colored disc to reset. After button has been pressed, yellow disc should spring back to UP position.
If Filter Minder gauge has reached red colored zone, and after an examination of air cleaner (filter)
element, element appears to be clean, high reading may be due to a temporary condition such as
snow build-up at air intake. Temporary high restrictions may also occur if air cleaner (filter) element
has gotten wet such as during a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow element to dry out during
normal engine operation. Reset rubber button on top of Filter Minder and retest after element has
dried.
Filter Removal
1. The housing cover is equipped with spring clips and is hinged with plastic tabs. Unlatch clips
from top of air cleaner housing and tilt housing cover
up for cover removal.
2. Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner housing (5).

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.

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.

REGARDING FUELING OF EARLY BUILT 2007 RAM TRUCK CAB AND CHASSIS (DC)
VEHICLES.
SUBJECT: Fuel And Fuel Filtering Requirements For Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engines
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding fuel system requirements.
MODELS: 2006 - 2007
(DH/D1/DC) Ram Truck (Heavy Duty)
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L High Output or a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel
Engine (sales codes ETH or ETJ respectively) that were built on or after March 07, 2006 (MDH
0307XX).
DISCUSSION:
Current Fuel Systems:
- For the diesel engine system to operate at its peak performance a high level of fuel quality must
be maintained. Emission control and fuel delivery systems have advanced significantly. Care must
be taken to insure that the fuel that is delivered to the engine fuel injection system is of the highest
quality possible and free of contaminants.
- Significant components to fuel quality are: the initial quality of the fuel (as dispensed from the
service station fuel pump or bulk storage), on-vehicle fuel storage, and the on-vehicle fuel filtering
of the diesel fuel prior to the fuel injection process.
- Refer to the Owners Manual for fuel and fuel system information.
Proper Fuel And Fuel Quality:
- 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 and meeting ASTM D975 grade 5-15) is required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. **
- ** The 2007 Ram Truck Cab and Chassis (DC) vehicle is equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine. This
vehicle is to use Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel. Due to limited availability of Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel, during the initial production of this vehicle, Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
Fuel (500 ppm of sulfur or less) may be used ONLY until Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
becomes readily available and fuel pumps that dispense Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel are
required to be labelled as such. This is expected to occur around October 15, 2006. **
- ** Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (preferred) or Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel (500 ppm
of sulfur or less) are required for use in Dodge Ram Trucks equipped with a 5.9L diesel engine. **
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown
sulfur and water content and unknown cetane number may adversely affect the performance of the
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Diesel Fuel System - Fuel/Filtering Requirements > Page 7126
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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify
that the water sensor probes in the final filter have 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 I water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table shown.

Technical Service Bulletins > Diesel Fuel System - Fuel/Filtering Requirements > Page 7127
- Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications 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.
- It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris and water contamination.
- The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

SUBJECT: 5.9L And 6.7L Cummins Diesel Engines - Correct Low And Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway
Diesel Fuel Use
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves a discussion regarding the correct diesel fuel to use for either
the 5.9L or the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine.
MODELS:
2007 (DHID1IDC) Ram Truck
NOTE:
This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a 5.9L or a 6.7L turbo-diesel engine (sales code
ETH and ETJ respectively).
DISCUSSION:
2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram trucks equipped with a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel engine are required by
Federal law to be fueled with Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel fuel.
2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram trucks equipped with a 5.9L Cummins Turbo-Diesel engine are allowed by
Federal law to be fueled with Low Sulfur Diesel fuel, and are encouraged to fuel with Ultra-Low
Sulfur Diesel fuel.
As of June 1, 2006, a new United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulation
required at least 80% of the United States diesel fuel production to be Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway
Diesel fuel. Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel has a sulfur content of 15 part per million (ppm).
The new Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel enables vehicles equipped with the advanced
emissions control devices to achieve more stringent U.S. EPA vehicle emissions standards.
By October 15, 2006, retail fuel stations that carry and dispense Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
fuel must label their fuel pumps with a Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel label (Fig. 1), and
must meet the 15 ppm sulfur maximum requirement.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Diesel Fuel System - Fuel/Filtering Requirements > Page 7129
Federal law requires that the 2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram truck equipped with the 6.7L Cummins
Turbo-Diesel engine must be fueled with Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel, and prohibits the
use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel to avoid damage to the emissions control systems.
DaimlerChrysler's warranty does not cover the costs of repairing damage caused by the use of
fuels other than those recommended in the owners manual.
Effective June 1, 2006, EPA requires retail fuel stations that carry and dispense Low Sulfur
Highway Diesel to label low sulfur fuel pumps with a Low Sulfur Highway Diesel Fuel label (Fig. 2).
Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel may have a maximum sulfur content of 500 ppm (vs. 15 ppm). The
label warns that Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel is prohibited from use in 2007 M.Y. and later diesel
equipped vehicles.
The U.S. EPA recognizes that some 2007 M.Y. diesel equipped vehicles are capable of operating
on either Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel or on Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel, as in the case
of a 2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram Truck that is equipped with a 5.9L Cummins Turbo-Diesel engine. EPA
has posted information to clarify the message on the following website: www.clean-diesel.org.
To improve our customer's experience it is important to communicate the following:

A. The 2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram trucks equipped with a 5.9L Cummins Turbo-Diesel engine are
encouraged to use Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel, but have the flexibility to use either the
Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel or the Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel without the risk of
penalty or damage to their emissions control system (Fig. 3).
B. The 2007 M.Y. Dodge Ram trucks equipped with a 6.7L Cummins Turbo-Diesel engine are
required by Federal law to fuel their vehicles with Ultra-Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (Fig. 4).

- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel (B5) is acceptable as long as the biodiesel mixture meets
ASTM specification D-975, D-975 - grade 5-15, and ASTM D6751. A biodiesel fuel blend that is
higher than 5% is not acceptable without additional fuel processing because these higher
percentage biodiesel blends contain excess amounts of moisture which exceed the water stripping
capability of the on-engine final fuel filter. Should a higher percentage biodiesel fuels be used an
auxiliary water stripping filter will be required.
- A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel (B20) can be used by government, military, and commercial
fleets who equip their vehicle(s) with an optional water separator, and adhere to the guidelines in
the Department of Defense specification A-A-59693 (in addition to: ASTM specification D-975,
D-975 - grade 5-15 and ASTM D6751)
- Off-highway diesel fuel (i.e. farm or marine use diesel fuel) that does not meet Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway or Low Sulfur Highway fuel specifications (as listed above) is NOT acceptable. Unknown

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 the Owners Manual.
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 the 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. Refer to the table on the
following page for recommended in-line filter specifications.
Proper On-vehicle Fuel Storage And Filtering:
- Proper on-vehicle fuel storage that prevents fuel contamination is important.
- 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. Refer to the table on the following page for
recommended filter specifications.
- 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 mounted at 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 storage, and fuel handling prior to the final filter all have a
significant impact on the amount of contamination and moisture entering the final fuel filter.
- It is important to drain accumulated moisture/water at least monthly from the final fuel filter. Do not
wait until the 'Water In Fuel" indicator illuminates before performing this maintenance.
- Maintenance on the final fuel filter / water separator is important. Follow the maintenance
schedule per the Owners Manual. Replace the filter more frequently if highly contaminated or high
moisture content fuel is encountered.
- On a 5.9L engine, if the final fuel filter is replaced due to a high moisture content diesel fuel, verify
that the water sensor probes in the final filter have 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 I water separator filter must meet or exceed the filtration specifications listed in the
table shown.

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Fuel System - Heavy Duty MOPAR Filtration Kit Retrofit > Page 7139
- Final fuel / water separator filters that meet the above specifications 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.
- It is recommended that customers use the MOPAR approved or Cummins Equivalent fuel filters to
protect the engine from debris and water contamination.
- The following final fuel / water separator filters are known to meet or exceed the specifications
listed in the table above.

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.

Fuel Injector: Description and Operation 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:

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Injector > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7299
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 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.

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.
- 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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Fuel Tank > Fuel Gauge Sender >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7418
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/Water Separator: 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/Water Separator Removal.
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.

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.

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.
- 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.

Intercooler: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Intake air is drawn through the air cleaner and into the turbocharger compressor housing.
Pressurized air from the turbocharger then flows forward through the charge air cooler located in
front of the radiator. From the charge air cooler the air flows back into the intake manifold.

Intercooler: Testing and Inspection
CHARGE AIR COOLER SYSTEM - LEAKS
Low turbocharger boost pressure and low engine performance can be caused by leaks in the
charge air cooler or plumbing. Fuel staining on the exhaust manifold can also be an indication that
there are leaks in the air system. The following procedure outlines how to check for leaks in the
charge air cooler system.
This procedure can also be used to check for leaks in the wastegate signal line or the wastegate
canister.
1. Loosen clamp and remove air inlet hose from turbocharger. 2. Insert Special Tool 9022 Adapter
and tool 9860 into the turbocharger inlet. Tighten tool clamp to 8 Nm (72 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: Do not apply more than 138 kPa (20 psi) air pressure to the charge air cooler system,
severe damage to the charge air cooler system may occur.
3. Connect a regulated air supply to air fitting on Tool 9022 Adapter. Set air pressure to a Maximum
of 138 kPa (20 psi). 4. Using soapy water check the rubber sleeves, charge air cooler and intake
manifold for leaks. 5. Using soapy water check for leaks at the wastegate signal line, wastegate
canister and wastegate command valve.

Wastegate Actuator: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION - 6.7L
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.

sector gear clockwise and insert small end of turbocharger actuator alignment tool (supplied with
new actuator) or 3.175 mm
(1/8 in.) drill, through sector gear until it engages the alignment hole in turbocharger bearing
housing and sector gear will not rotate. If alignment pin does not engage hole in turbocharger
bearing housing, variable geometry mechanism is not opening completely.
10. Remove pin from turbocharger actuator sector gear. Turbocharger actuator sector gear must
stay in this position, rotated fully clockwise while
installing actuator.
11. Position turbocharger actuator on guide pins and install. 12. Install two mounting screws. Hand
tighten only. 13. Remove guide pins. Install remaining two mounting screws. Tighten mounting
screws in a cross pattern to 11 Nm (96 in. lbs.). 14. Using scan tool, perform TURBO ACTUATOR
SELF CALIBRATE procedure.
NOTE: If the TURBO ACTUATOR SELF CALIBRATE procedure fails, remove actuator and repeat
installation one additional time. If this fails to clear error, replace turbocharger.
15. Place ignition in the OFF position. 16. Install air filter housing. 17. Fill cooling system.

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.

Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Ignition System > Knock Sensor > Component Information >
Description and Operation > Description > Page 7753
Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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 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) (3) for the CKP
is attached to 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.

Two knock sensors are bolted into the cylinder block under the intake manifold 3.7L, 4.7L & 8.3L.
Two knock sensors are also used with the 5.7L. These are bolted into each side of the cylinder
block (outside) under the exhaust manifold.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Ignition System > Sensors and Switches - Ignition System > Knock
Sensor > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 7829
Knock Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Two knock sensors are used; one for each cylinder bank. When the knock sensor detects a knock
in one of the cylinders on the corresponding bank, it sends an input signal to the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM). In response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled
amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input
voltage (signal) to the PCM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the crystal's vibration
increases, the knock sensor output voltage also increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The
PCM receives the knock sensor voltage signal as an input. If the signal rises above a
predetermined level, the PCM will store that value in memory and retard ignition timing to reduce
engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a preset value, the PCM retards ignition timing
for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The PCM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed
exceeds a specified value, knock retard is allowed.
Knock retard uses its own short term and long term memory program.
Long term memory stores previous detonation information in its battery-backed RAM. The
maximum authority that long term memory has over timing retard can be calibrated.
Short term memory is allowed to retard timing up to a preset amount under all operating conditions
(as long as rpm is above the minimum rpm) except at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The PCM, using
short term memory, can respond quickly to retard timing when engine knock is detected. Short term
memory is lost any time the ignition key is turned off.
NOTE: Over or under tightening the sensor mounting bolts will affect knock sensor performance,
possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock
sensors.

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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Glow Plug System > Wait To Start Light > Component Information
> Description and Operation > Description > Page 7835
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).
For further diagnosis of the wait-to-start indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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
68RFE 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
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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 Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

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 Overdrive Off Indicator
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.
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). For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier
Testing.

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). 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 Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
A 4WD auto 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. The 4WD auto indicator is located on the right side of the
instrument cluster, to the right of the oil pressure gauge.
The 4WD auto indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text 4WD AUTO 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 4WD auto indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The 4WD auto indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Four Wheel Drive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
The 4WD auto indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the electronic transfer
case has been shifted into the 4WD auto 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 Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus.
The 4WD auto 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 4WD auto indicator for the following reasons:
- 4WD Auto Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic 4WD auto
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 4WD auto 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 through the transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine when the 4WD auto mode is engaged. The TIPM then
sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC). For further diagnosis of the 4WD auto indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that
controls the LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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 4WD auto 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). For
further diagnosis of the service 4WD indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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.

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 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.
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
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 > Description > Page 8061
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.

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.
- 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. 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 8103
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

- 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 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.

Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 8105
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.

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.

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.

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

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:
Selector Switch Interpretation

Information > Description and Operation > NV243 Transfer Case > Page 8261
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, 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.

great, or some other condition outlined (other than a diagnostic failure that would prevent this shift)
elsewhere 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.

Four Wheel Drive Selector Switch: Description and Operation NV246 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 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:
Selector Switch Interpretation
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO,
4HI, AWD), 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 AWD and in-between positions, the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
- the AWD 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 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

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.

^ Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), 2007 & 2008 MY.
^ If CCN is updated; provide a Customer Information Sheet explaining the overhead display
messages.
^ One of several software changes allows for "Net Zero" and "Net Reduction" which will cause
noticeable changes in idle speeds. Customers should be informed of these changes. They are
explained in DISCUSSION,
Improvements that address erroneous MIL illumination for DTC P0106, P0191, P2262 and P2299
DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE:

DISCUSSION:
Cab chassis trucks equipped with a 6.7L Cummins diesel have a number of software
improvements available. This latest Service Bulletin (SB) will include improvements to prevent
erroneous Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination:
^ P000F - Fuel System Over Pressure Relief Valve Activated

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest: > 18-020-10 > Jun > 10 > Engine Controls - Engine
Systems/Exhaust Enhancements > Page 8368
^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

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.

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.

6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.

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.

^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

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.

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.

8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:

DISCUSSION:
NOTE:
Many of the reasons a flash reprogramming procedure may not complete are documented in this
service bulletin.
Occasionally a flash update procedure may not complete properly and/or the diagnostic equipment
may lock up or become disconnected during the procedure. Flash Reprogramming is a "CRITICAL
PROCESS"; an error may result in a no-start/failed control module. Most modules, encountering an
interruption or failure while reprogramming, are recoverable. Replacing a module that is
recoverable is not covered under the provisions of the warranty.
This service bulletin covers items that may cause this condition, a process to restart the flash
procedure, and miscellaneous information that will help prevent unnecessary replacement of
control modules.
GENERAL: Flash Reprogramming is only authorized when programming a generic module or by a
specific SERVICE ACTION (Service Bulletin/Recall/Rapid Response Transmittal/Advance Service
Information).

When updating a module because of a Service Action, it is important to follow the steps outlined in
the Repair Procedure section of the Service Action. Procedures may differ depending on the
module that is being reprogrammed.
Review the entire Service Action prior to performing a flash reprogramming update. Often other
parts may need to be serviced, replaced, or tested, prior to flash reprogramming, and ARE
REQUIRED as part of completing the Service Action.
COMMON CAUSES OF FLASH REPROGRAMMING ERRORS
Interruptions, voltage problems, a variety of other outside interactions, and failure to follow the
steps outlined in the Service Action can potentially interfere with the process. This document seeks
to provide information to minimize problems associated with module flash reprogramming.
SOFTWARE VERSIONS MUST BE CURRENT
Before attempting a flash reprogramming session, make sure you have the most current software
installed in the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)). Refer to the current software release
information available in TechCONNECT, under: Service Info > StarSCAN(R) and StarMOBILE(TM)
Tools > Latest News > Select the most recent release number. The technician will be able to see
the applicable version numbers.
Often, because of multiple StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)s in the shop, not all devices will get
updated in a timely manner. The installed StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM) software version and
scan tool operating system version, (Fig. 2), can be verified from the "Home" screen as follows:

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.

^ P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
^ P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
^ P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
^ P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
^ P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
^ P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to pick up truck
(DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Performance. This
DTC indicates diminished variable geometry
turbocharger travel, which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair
procedures for the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the extended
idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may
help to reduce the accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is
idling for an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of soot
accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Zero"). Further, under extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode
which reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called "Net
Reduction"). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a period of time. The
idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to 900 RPM to repeat this cycle during
very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as long as the
vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at
high load. If the vehicle is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.
4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the pick up)
now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on the repair
order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN
software level part numbers. Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the scantool.
Determine if the current PCM software level part
number, recorded in Step # 1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step # 1) at the latest level
listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on
the repair order for later reference. Proceed to
the next step.
b. If NO >> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair. Record this on the
repair order for later reference. Proceed to the
next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step # 5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was recorded earlier in
Step # 1, is one of the following (or with a higher
suffix):

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

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.

Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

18-037-07A > Jul > 07 > A/T Controls - MIL ON/DTC P0868 Set > Page 8578
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.

Occasionally a flash update procedure may not complete properly and/or the diagnostic equipment
may lock up or become disconnected during the procedure. Flash Reprogramming is a "CRITICAL
PROCESS"; an error may result in a no-start/failed control module. Most modules, encountering an
interruption or failure while reprogramming, are recoverable. Replacing a module that is
recoverable is not covered under the provisions of the warranty.
This service bulletin covers items that may cause this condition, a process to restart the flash
procedure, and miscellaneous information that will help prevent unnecessary replacement of
control modules.
GENERAL: Flash Reprogramming is only authorized when programming a generic module or by a
specific SERVICE ACTION (Service Bulletin/Recall/Rapid Response Transmittal/Advance Service
Information).

When updating a module because of a Service Action, it is important to follow the steps outlined in
the Repair Procedure section of the Service Action. Procedures may differ depending on the
module that is being reprogrammed.
Review the entire Service Action prior to performing a flash reprogramming update. Often other
parts may need to be serviced, replaced, or tested, prior to flash reprogramming, and ARE
REQUIRED as part of completing the Service Action.
COMMON CAUSES OF FLASH REPROGRAMMING ERRORS
Interruptions, voltage problems, a variety of other outside interactions, and failure to follow the
steps outlined in the Service Action can potentially interfere with the process. This document seeks
to provide information to minimize problems associated with module flash reprogramming.
SOFTWARE VERSIONS MUST BE CURRENT
Before attempting a flash reprogramming session, make sure you have the most current software
installed in the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)). Refer to the current software release
information available in TechCONNECT, under: Service Info > StarSCAN(R) and StarMOBILE(TM)
Tools > Latest News > Select the most recent release number. The technician will be able to see
the applicable version numbers.
Often, because of multiple StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)s in the shop, not all devices will get
updated in a timely manner. The installed StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM) software version and
scan tool operating system version, (Fig. 2), can be verified from the "Home" screen as follows:

It is a good practice to have dedicated cables devoted to "Flash ONLY".
Always have a spare StarSCAN(R) CH9404 (vehicle) cable available.
Always have a spare StarMOBILE(TM) CH9804 (vehicle) cable available (blue cable end).
Diagnosing vehicle cable problems
Inspect vehicle cable connectors for potential problems that might cause communication
interruptions. Use the information available on DealerCONNECT under:
^ eSupport (above the "Marketing" tab)
^ Under "Knowledge Center" - select "Find Answers"
^ In the "Enter link, error message, or topic" area, type "561"
^ In the "Search By" area, select "Answer ID"
^ At the next screen, select the "StarSCAN Flash Lockup.pdf" link to access the information to
diagnose suspect vehicle cable continuity.
FLASH REPROGRAMMING PROBLEM PREVENTION
^ Follow the steps outlined in the Service Action.
^ Pay attention to the screen prompts displayed during the flash process.
^ Replace worn cables.
^ Verify the vehicle is equipped with a known good battery.
^ Ensure the battery charger charging rate provides approximately 13.2 - 13.8 volts. Set the battery
charger to continuous charge. Do not allow the charger to time out during the flash process.
**ABORTED FLASH REPROGRAMMING RECOVERY**
** The following steps may help recover a non-responsive module when the flash process is
aborted or interrupted.

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.

When updating a module because of a Service Action, it is important to follow the steps outlined in
the Repair Procedure section of the Service Action. Procedures may differ depending on the
module that is being reprogrammed.
Review the entire Service Action prior to performing a flash reprogramming update. Often other
parts may need to be serviced, replaced, or tested, prior to flash reprogramming, and ARE
REQUIRED as part of completing the Service Action.
COMMON CAUSES OF FLASH REPROGRAMMING ERRORS
Interruptions, voltage problems, a variety of other outside interactions, and failure to follow the
steps outlined in the Service Action can potentially interfere with the process. This document seeks
to provide information to minimize problems associated with module flash reprogramming.
SOFTWARE VERSIONS MUST BE CURRENT
Before attempting a flash reprogramming session, make sure you have the most current software
installed in the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)). Refer to the current software release
information available in TechCONNECT, under: Service Info > StarSCAN(R) and StarMOBILE(TM)
Tools > Latest News > Select the most recent release number. The technician will be able to see
the applicable version numbers.
Often, because of multiple StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM)s in the shop, not all devices will get
updated in a timely manner. The installed StarSCAN(R)/StarMOBILE(TM) software version and
scan tool operating system version, (Fig. 2), can be verified from the "Home" screen as follows:

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

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
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

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.

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 Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8870
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

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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8872
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8873
- 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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8874
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 > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8875
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 8876
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 Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8877
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Accumulator, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 8878
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 8880
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.

NOTE: Refer to the Hydraulic Schematics for a visual aid in determining valve location, operation
and design.
SOLENOID SWITCH VALVE
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
manually operated by the driver with a lever located on the top of the valve body. The valve is
connected mechanically to the gearshift mechanism. The valve is held in each of its positions by a
roller detent spring (2) that engages the roostercomb of the TRS selector plate (1).
LOW/REVERSE SWITCH VALVE
The low/reverse switch valve allows the low/reverse clutch to be operated by either the LR/CC
solenoid or the MS solenoid.

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.

connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.

5. Install special tool 8815-1 (Adapter) to the TCM "D" connector. Connect the harness "D"
connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

Jul > 07 > A/T Controls - MIL ON/DTC P0868 Set > Page 8935
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.

Control Module: Description and Operation 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.
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Control Module, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 8952
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.

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.

Dexron II fluid IS NOT recommended. Clutch chatter can result from the use of improper fluid.
NOTE: Mopar ATF +4 and AS68RC, Automatic Transmission Fluids when new are 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 and AS68RC, also have 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.
DaimlerChrysler 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 DaimlerChrysler 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: Testing and Inspection 68RFE Automatic Transmission
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.

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 two primary causes.
1. A result of restricted fluid flow through the main and/or 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.
2. 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
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.
FILL TUBE EQUIPPED WITH INDICATOR
NOTE: Engine and Transmission should be at normal operating temperature before performing this
procedure. After the fluid has been checked, seat the dipstick fully to seal out water and dirt.
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

is started or when it is running. Secure vehicle to prevent it from moving off by itself. Wear properly
fastened and close-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts.
3. Actuate the service brake. Start engine and let it run at idle speed in selector lever position "P".
4. Shift through the transmission modes several times with the vehicle stationary and the engine
idling. 5. Warm up the transmission, wait at least 2 minutes and check the oil level with the engine
running. Push the Oil Dipstick 9336 into transmission fill
tube until the dipstick tip contacts the oil pan and pull out again, read off oil level, repeat if
necessary.
NOTE: The dipstick will protrude from the fill tube when installed.
6. Check transmission oil temperature using the appropriate scan tool.
NOTE: The true transmission oil temperature can only be read by a scan tool in REVERSE or any
forward gear position.
7. The transmission Oil Dipstick 9336 has indicator marks every 10 mm. Determine the height of
the oil level on the dipstick and using the height,
the transmission temperature, and the Transmission Fluid Graph, determine if the transmission oil
level is correct.

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 9033
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 Overdrive Off Indicator
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.
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). For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier
Testing.

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). 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 Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

Overdrive Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Overdrive Off Indicator
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.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

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:
SECTION A - TCM CIRCUIT CHECK:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the ignition
switch.
2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
3. Locate the TCM in the rear of the engine compartment.
4. Disconnect the "D" (green) electrical harness connector from the TCM. The "D" connector will
have a green color stripe to identify it.
5. Install special tool 8815-1 (Adapter) to the TCM "D" connector. Connect the harness "D"
connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.

18-037-07A > Jul > 07 > A/T Controls - MIL ON/DTC P0868 Set > Page 9134
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.

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.

Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.

Control Module: Description and Operation 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.
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Relays and Modules - A/T
> Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 9172
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.

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.
- 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.

Page 9198
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.

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.

Speed > Page 9267
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
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

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

NOTE: Always run the shift lever test using the scan tool to help diagnose a potential TRS problem
Check adjustment by starting the engine in PARK and NEUTRAL. Adjustment is CORRECT if the
engine starts only in these positions. Adjustment is INCORRECT if the engine starts in one but not
both positions. If the engine starts in any position other than PARK or NEUTRAL, or if the engine
will not start at all, the transmission range sensor may be faulty.
Gearshift Adjustment Procedure
1. Shift transmission into PARK. 2. Release cable adjuster lock tab (3) (underneath the steering
column) to unlock cable. 3. Raise vehicle. 4. Disengage the cable eyelet from the transmission
manual shift lever. 5. Verify transmission shift lever is in PARK detent by moving lever fully
rearward. Last rearward detent is PARK position. 6. Verify positive engagement of transmission
park lock by attempting to rotate propeller shaft. Shaft will not rotate when park lock is engaged. 7.
Snap the cable eyelet onto the transmission manual shift lever. 8. Lower vehicle. 9. Lock shift cable
by pressing cable adjuster lock tab (3) downward until it snaps into place.
10. Check engine starting. Engine should start only in PARK and NEUTRAL.

both positions. If the engine starts in any position other than PARK or NEUTRAL, or if the engine
will not start at all, the transmission range sensor may be faulty.
Gearshift Adjustment Procedure
1. Shift transmission into PARK. 2. Release cable adjuster lock tab (3) (underneath the steering
column) to unlock cable. 3. Raise vehicle. 4. Disengage the cable eyelet from the transmission
manual shift lever. 5. Verify transmission shift lever is in PARK detent by moving lever fully
rearward. Last rearward detent is PARK position. 6. Verify positive engagement of transmission
park lock by attempting to rotate propeller shaft. Shaft will not rotate when park lock is engaged. 7.
Snap the cable eyelet onto the transmission manual shift lever. 8. Lower vehicle. 9. Lock shift cable
by pressing cable adjuster lock tab (3) downward until it snaps into place.
10. Check engine starting. Engine should start only in PARK and NEUTRAL.

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). 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 Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

Torque Converter: Description and Operation 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed
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.

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9441
Impeller
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

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9442
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

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9443
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.

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.

Torque Converter: Description and Operation 68RFE Automatic Transmission
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 (2), an
overrunning clutch, an impeller (5), 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 (3)
drives the transmission oil (fluid) pump and contains an O-ring seal (4) to better control oil flow.
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.

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 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.
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC)

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9449
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 (3) and turbine (5) were mechanically locked
together, a zero slippage condition could be obtained. A hydraulic piston (6) with friction material
(7) was added to the turbine assembly (5) to provide this mechanical lock-up.
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
Operation
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.

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9450
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 over-running 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
over-running 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 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)
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:

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9451
- 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.

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.

The converter drainback check valve is located in the in the TOC pressure - supply line, between
the engine mounted transmission oil cooler and the air to oil transmission oil cooler. The valve
prevents fluid drainback when the vehicle is parked for lengthy periods. The valve check ball is
spring loaded and has an opening pressure of approximately 2 psi.
The valve is serviced as an assembly; it is not repairable. Do not clean the valve if restricted, or
contaminated by sludge, or debris. If the valve fails, or if a transmission malfunction occurs that
generates significant amounts of sludge and/or clutch particles and metal shavings, the valve must
be replaced.
If the valve is restricted, installed backwards, or in the wrong line, it will cause an transmission
overheating condition and possible transmission failure.
CAUTION: The drainback valve is a one-way flow device. It must be properly oriented in terms of
flow direction for the cooler to function properly. The valve must be installed in the pressure line.
Otherwise flow will be blocked and would cause an transmission overheating condition and
eventual transmission failure.

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.

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 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.

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.
- 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.

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.

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 Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9617
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9618
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9619
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 Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9620
- 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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Valve Body, A/T >
Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9621
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.

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.

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.

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

Component Information > Description and Operation > 48RE (A-618) 4 Speed > Page 9625
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 9627
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.

NOTE: Refer to the Hydraulic Schematics for a visual aid in determining valve location, operation
and design.
SOLENOID SWITCH VALVE
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
manually operated by the driver with a lever located on the top of the valve body. The valve is
connected mechanically to the gearshift mechanism. The valve is held in each of its positions by a
roller detent spring (2) that engages the roostercomb of the TRS selector plate (1).
LOW/REVERSE SWITCH VALVE
The low/reverse switch valve allows the low/reverse clutch to be operated by either the LR/CC
solenoid or the MS solenoid.

Valve Body: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS - VALVE BODY
CONTROL PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
There are two control pressure adjustments on the valve body;
- Line Pressure
- Throttle Pressure
Line and throttle pressures are interdependent because each affects shift quality and timing. As a
result, both adjustments must be performed properly and in the correct sequence. Adjust line
pressure first and throttle pressure last.
LINE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
1. Measure distance (2) from the valve body to the inner edge of the adjusting screw with an
accurate steel scale. Distance should be 33.4 mm
(1-5/16 in.). If adjustment is required, turn the adjusting screw in, or out, to obtain required distance
setting.
NOTE: The 33.4 mm (1-5/16 in.) setting is an approximate setting. Manufacturing tolerances may
make it necessary to vary from this dimension to obtain desired pressure.
One complete turn of the adjusting screw changes line pressure approximately 1-2/3 psi (9 kPa).
Turning the adjusting screw counterclockwise increases pressure while turning the screw clockwise
decreases pressure.
THROTTLE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
2. Insert Throttle Setting Gauge Tool C-3763 between the throttle lever cam and the kickdown
valve stem (2). 3. Push the gauge tool inward to compress the kickdown valve against the spring
and bottom the throttle valve. 4. Maintain pressure against kickdown valve spring. Turn throttle
lever stop screw until the screw head touches throttle lever tang and the throttle
lever cam touches gauge tool.
NOTE: The kickdown valve spring must be fully compressed and the kickdown valve completely
bottomed to obtain correct adjustment.

Valve Body Components
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.

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.
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.
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.
The only serviceable valve body components are listed below. The remaining valve body
components are serviced only as part of a complete valve body assembly. Serviceable parts are:

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.

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:
The axle fill holes on some Dodge Truck vehicle axles may be located considerably higher than the
actual fluid level. Filling the axle until the fluid comes out of the fill hole will over fill the axle, which
may cause fluid foaming. When checking fluid level or filling a rear axle with fluid, you must
measure the distance from the bottom of the fill hole to the top of the actual fluid level. This can
easily be accomplished using a pipe cleaner or piece of wire. Make a 90 degree bend in the wire 2
inches from the end. The wire can then be inserted into the axle fill hole to use as a dipstick.
Measure the distance from the bend to the oil level. The fluid levels for the axles are shown in the
table below.
CORRECT FLUID LEVELS FOR DURANGO / ASPEN:

Launch shudder is a vibration that occurs at first acceleration from a stop. Shudder vibration
usually peaks at the engines highest torque output. Shudder is a symptom associated with vehicles
using a two-piece propeller shaft. To decrease shudder, lower the center bearing in 3.0 mm (0.125
in.) increments. Use shim stock or fabricated plates. Do not use washers. Replace the original bolts
with the appropriate increased length bolts.

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.

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. 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.

Flywheel: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
STANDARD FLYWHEEL
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(R) 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 Overdrive Off Indicator
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.
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). For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier
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.

Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Tow/Haul Indicator
Description
DESCRIPTION
A tow/haul 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 tow/haul indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text TOW/HAUL 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 tow/haul indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The tow/haul indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
Operation
OPERATION
The tow/haul indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the tow/haul function of the
tow/haul switch has been selected, revising the shift schedule of the electronically controlled
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 tow/haul 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 tow/haul indicator for the following reasons:
- Tow/Haul Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic tow/haul
indicator lamp-ON message from the PCM indicating that the tow/haul shift schedule 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 tow/haul 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). For further diagnosis of the tow/haul indicator or the
instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator refer to Instrument Cluster / Carrier testing.

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). 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 Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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.

7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.

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:
SECTION A - TCM CIRCUIT CHECK:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the ignition
switch.
2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
3. Locate the TCM in the rear of the engine compartment.
4. Disconnect the "D" (green) electrical harness connector from the TCM. The "D" connector will
have a green color stripe to identify it.
5. Install special tool 8815-1 (Adapter) to the TCM "D" connector. Connect the harness "D"
connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.

Bulletins for Control Module: > 18-037-07A > Jul > 07 > A/T Controls - MIL ON/DTC P0868 Set > Page 10102
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.

Control Module: Description and Operation 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.
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)

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.

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.
- 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.

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. 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.

Description > Page 10161
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
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 10162
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 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 10163
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.

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.

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.

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

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

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, 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.

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. 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 > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10421
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

Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10422
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 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 > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transfer Case > Control Module, Transfer Case > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10423
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.

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.

Four Wheel Drive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Description
4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
A 4WD auto 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. The 4WD auto indicator is located on the right side of the
instrument cluster, to the right of the oil pressure gauge.
The 4WD auto indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text 4WD AUTO 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 4WD auto indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The 4WD auto indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Four Wheel Drive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
The 4WD auto indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the electronic transfer
case has been shifted into the 4WD auto 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 Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus.
The 4WD auto 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 4WD auto indicator for the following reasons:
- 4WD Auto Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic 4WD auto
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 4WD auto 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 through the transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine when the 4WD auto mode is engaged. The TIPM then
sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC). For further diagnosis of the 4WD auto indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that
controls the LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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 4WD auto indicator operation a diagnostic scan
tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

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, 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
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.

4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
A 4WD auto 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. The 4WD auto indicator is located on the right side of the
instrument cluster, to the right of the oil pressure gauge.
The 4WD auto indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text 4WD AUTO 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 4WD auto indicator is
dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general illumination lighting using the panel
lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The 4WD auto indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Four Wheel Drive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
4WD Auto Indicator
4WD AUTO INDICATOR
The 4WD auto indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the electronic transfer
case has been shifted into the 4WD auto 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 Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus.
The 4WD auto 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 4WD auto indicator for the following reasons:
- 4WD Auto Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic 4WD auto
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 4WD auto 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 through the transfer case shift
motor/mode sensor assembly to determine when the 4WD auto mode is engaged. The TIPM then
sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster
(EMIC). For further diagnosis of the 4WD auto indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that
controls the LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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 4WD auto indicator operation a diagnostic scan
tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

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). For
further diagnosis of the service 4WD indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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.

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. 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 > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transfer Case > Relays and Modules - Transfer Case > Control
Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10541
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transfer Case > Relays and Modules - Transfer Case > Control
Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10542
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 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.

Module, Transfer Case > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 10543
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.

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:
Selector Switch Interpretation

Wheel Drive Selector Switch > Component Information > Description and Operation > NV243 Transfer Case > Page 10581
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, 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.

Four Wheel Drive Selector Switch: Description and Operation NV246 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 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:
Selector Switch Interpretation
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO,
4HI, AWD), 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 AWD and in-between positions, the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
- the AWD 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 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.

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
68RFE 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.

Shift Solenoid: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
SOLENOID AND PRESSURE SWITCH ASSEMBLY
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
68RFE 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.

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.

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.
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). For further diagnosis of the overdrive off indicator or
the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier
Testing.

DESCRIPTION
A tow/haul 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 tow/haul indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text TOW/HAUL in the opaque layer of
the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being

Operation
OPERATION
The tow/haul indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the tow/haul function of the
tow/haul switch has been selected, revising the shift schedule of the electronically controlled
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

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). 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 Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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

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). For
further diagnosis of the service 4WD indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
LED, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier 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.

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.

5. Install special tool 8815-1 (Adapter) to the TCM "D" connector. Connect the harness "D"
connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the

> Page 10884
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.

SECTION A - TCM CIRCUIT CHECK:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the ignition
switch.
2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
3. Locate the TCM in the rear of the engine compartment.
4. Disconnect the "D" (green) electrical harness connector from the TCM. The "D" connector will
have a green color stripe to identify it.
5. Install special tool 8815-1 (Adapter) to the TCM "D" connector. Connect the harness "D"
connector to the 8815-1 Adapter.
6. Install special tool 8815 (PCM Diagnostic Pinout Box) to the 8815-1 Adapter.
7. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "OFF" ** position (the first detent clockwise from the ** "LOCK"
** position). DO NOT turn the ignition switch to the "ON/RUN" position, this will cause an incorrect
voltage reading to be obtain when testing.
NOTE:
Verify that the ignition switch is in the ** "OFF" ** position and NOT in the "ON/RUN" position. The
following steps must be followed in order.
9. Check of the D19 circuit:
a. Set the DVOM to DC voltage. Adjust the DC volts to the appropriate setting to correctly read 12
volts.
b. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 13 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 13, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.
c. Pins 13 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to D13 (0 volts - ground) and to pins D19
(12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
d. Does the VOLT meter read 12 volts?
e. If YES, then proceed to the next step.
f. If NO, then further diagnosis of the circuit is required.
10. Check for a voltage difference between circuit D11 and D19:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 19 of the
8815 Pinout Box. Install the negative lead of the DVOM in pin 11, and the positive lead of the
DVOM in pin 19.

ON/DTC P0868 Set > Page 10905
b. Pins 11 and 19 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 (12 volts - driver output
voltage) and to D19 (12 volts - switched battery voltage) of the TCM.
c. The VOLT meter should read LESS THAN 2 volts. There should not be more than a 2 volt
difference between the two circuits (D11 and D19).
d. If the volt meter reading is LESS THAN 2 volts, then proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash)
The TCM.
e. If the volt meter reading is GREATER THAN 2 volts, then proceed to the next step.
11. Turn the ignition switch to the ** "LOCK" ** position and remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch.
12. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
13. Disconnect the electrical harness "D" connector from the 8815-1 Adapter. The 8815-1 Adapter
should now be connected only to the "D" connector of the TCM and to the 8815 Pinout Box.
14. Check for the resistance between circuit D11 and D13 in the TCM:
a. Install the two leads of a known GOOD DVOM (Digital Volt Ohm Meter) to pins 11 and 13 of the
8815 Pinout Box. For this resistance test there is no difference/concern which lead of the DVOM is
connected to which pin (11 or 13)
b. Set the DVOM to OHM's. Adjust the ohm meter to the appropriate setting to correctly read
100,000 ohm (same as 100K ohm) resistance.
c. Pins 11 and 13 of the 8815 Pinout Box should connect to pins D11 and to D13 of the TCM for
this resistance test.
d. For this test, if the circuit is good, the OHM meter should read GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm
resistance (100K ohm). There should not be less than a 100,000 ohm resistance between the two
circuits (D11 and D13). If the circuit is good, the technician will probably read a resistance of about
2,000,000 ohm (same as 2M ohm), significantly higher than the 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) cut point.
e. If the ohm meter reading is GREATER THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance then the TCM
is good. Proceed to Section B - Reprogram (Flash) The TCM.
f. If ohm meter reading is LESS THAN 100,000 ohm (100K ohm) resistance, then the TCM is bad
(circuit is shorted). Replace the TCM. If a new TCM is required, make sure the TCM software is at
the latest revision level.
15. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery.
NOTE:
Additional circuit analysis and the replacement of the TCM under warranty is not addressed by this
Service Bulletin and if required would be claimed separate to this bulletin.

Control Module: Description and Operation 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.
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transmission Control Systems > Relays and Modules Transmission and Drivetrain > Relays and Modules - A/T > Control Module, A/T > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Description > Page 10922
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.

AISIN AS68RC TRANSMISSION
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 Range Sensor
- Pressure Switches
- Transmission Temperature Sensor
- Input Speed Sensor
- Output Speed Sensor
Some examples of indirect inputs to the TCM are:
- Engine/Body Identification

Operation > Description > Page 10926
- Manifold Pressure
- Throttle position
- Torque Reduction Confirmation
- Engine Coolant Temperature
- Exhaust Brake Status (if equipped)
- PTO Request (if equipped)
- 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:
- Exhaust Brake Cut Request (if equipped).
- Solenoids.
- Torque Reduction Request.
Some examples of TCM .indirect outputs are:
- Transmission Temperature (to PCM).
- PRNDL Position (to cluster/CCN).
- PTO Status.
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).
Clutch filling time is continuously maintained when the vehicle is running.

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.
- 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.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10948
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. 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 > Transmission and Drivetrain > 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 10964
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 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > 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 10965
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 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 > Transmission and Drivetrain > 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 10966
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.

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

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

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, 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.

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.

ABS Light: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An Antilock Brake System (ABS) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters.
However, the instrument cluster can be programmed to disable this indicator on vehicles that are
not equipped with the ABS or Rear Wheel Anti-Lock (RWAL) brake systems, which are not
available in some markets. This indicator is located near the lower edge of the instrument cluster,
between the tachometer and the speedometer.
The ABS indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol
icon for Failure of Anti-lock Braking System 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 ABS indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

ABS Light: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The ABS indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the ABS system, or a circuit or
component of the system is ineffective. 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 Controller Antilock Brake (CAB) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The ABS 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 ABS indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the ABS indicator is
illuminated for about four seconds as a bulb test. The entire bulb test is a function of the CAB.
- ABS Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic ABS indicator
lamp-ON message from the CAB, the ABS indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB, 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 CAB
for five consecutive message cycles, the ABS indicator is illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a valid message from the CAB, or until the ignition switch is
turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the instrument cluster is put through the actuator test, the ABS 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.
- ABS Diagnostic Test - The ABS indicator is blinked ON and OFF by lamp-ON and lamp-OFF
messages from the CAB during the performance of the ABS diagnostic tests.
The CAB continually monitors the ABS circuits and sensors to decide whether the system is in
good operating condition. The CAB then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC). If the CAB sends a lamp-ON message after the bulb
test, it indicates that the CAB has detected a system malfunction or that the ABS system has
become ineffective. The CAB will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any malfunction it
detects. Each time the ABS indicator fails to light due to an open or short in the cluster ABS
indicator circuit, the cluster sends a message notifying the CAB of the condition, then the
instrument cluster and the CAB will each store a DTC.
For proper diagnosis of the antilock brake system, the CAB, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the
electronic communication related to ABS indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Electronic Brake Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The ABM voltage source is through the ignition switch in the RUN position. The ABM contains a
self check program that illuminates the ABS warning light when a system fault is detected. Faults
are stored in a diagnostic program memory and are accessible with the scan tool. ABS faults
remain in memory until cleared, or until after the vehicle is started approximately 50 times. Stored
faults are not erased if the battery is disconnected.
NOTE: If the ABM is being replaced with a new ABM is must be reprogrammed with the use of a
scan tool.

Hydraulic Control Assembly - Antilock Brakes: Description and Operation HCU (Hydraulic Control
Unit)
Description
DESCRIPTION
The HCU (3) consists of a valve body, pump motor, low pressure accumulators, inlet valves, outlet
valves and noise attenuators.
Operation
OPERATION
Accumulators in the valve body store extra fluid released to the system for ABS mode operation.
The pump provides the fluid volume needed and is operated by a DC type motor. The motor is
controlled by the ABM.
The valves modulate brake pressure during antilock braking and are controlled by the ABM.
The HCU provides three channel pressure control to the front and rear brakes. One channel
controls the rear wheel brakes in tandem. The two remaining channels control the front wheel
brakes individually.
During antilock braking, the solenoid valves are opened and closed as needed.
During normal braking, the HCU solenoid valves and pump are not activated. The master cylinder
and power booster operate the same as a vehicle without an ABS brake system.
NOTE: The three modes mentioned below do occur but not necessarily in the order listed every
time.
During antilock braking, solenoid valve pressure modulation occurs in three stages, pressure
increase, pressure hold, and pressure decrease. The valves are all contained in the valve body
portion of the HCU.
PRESSURE DECREASE
The outlet valve is opened and the inlet valve is closed during the pressure decrease cycle.
A pressure decrease cycle is initiated when speed sensor signals indicate high wheel slip at one or
more wheels. At this point, the ABM closes the inlet then opens the outlet valve, which also opens
the return circuit to the accumulators. Fluid pressure is allowed to bleed off (decrease) as needed
to prevent wheel lock.
Once the period of high wheel slip has ended, the ABM closes the outlet valve and begins a
pressure increase or hold cycle as needed.
PRESSURE HOLD
Both solenoid valves are closed in the pressure hold cycle but only the inlet valve is energized.
Fluid apply pressure in the control channel is maintained at a constant rate. The ABM maintains the
hold cycle until sensor inputs indicate a pressure change is necessary.

PRESSURE INCREASE
The inlet valve is open and the outlet valve is closed during the pressure increase cycle. The
pressure increase cycle is used to reapply thew brakes. This cycle controls re-application of fluid
apply pressure.

Hydraulic Control Assembly - Antilock Brakes: Description and Operation RWAL Valve
Description
DESCRIPTION
Rear Wheel Antilock (RWAL) brake system is standard equipment on 1500 series vehicles. The
RWAL brake system is designed to prevent rear wheel lock-up on virtually all types of road
surfaces. RWAL braking is desirable because a vehicle which is stopped without locking the rear
wheels will retain directional stability. This allows the driver to retain greater control of the vehicle
during braking.
The valve is located on the drivers side inner fender under the hood. The valve modulates
hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes.
The RWAL components include:
- RWAL Valve(1)
- Controller Antilock brake (CAB)
- Rear Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS)
Operation
OPERATION
When the brakes are applied, hydraulic fluid is routed from the master cylinder's secondary circuit
to the RWAL valve. From there hydraulic fluid is routed to the rear brakes. The Controller Antilock
Brake (CAB) contains an Electronic Variable Brake Proportioning (EVBP) control algorithm, which
proportions the applied braking force to the rear wheels during braking. The EVBP function of the
RWAL system takes the place of a conventional hydraulic proportioning valve. The CAB monitors
the rear wheel speed through the rear wheel speed sensor and calculates an estimated vehicle
deceleration. When an established deceleration threshold is exceeded, an isolation valve is closed
to hold the applied brake pressure to the rear brakes constant. Upon further increases in the
estimated vehicle deceleration, the isolation valve is selectively opened to increase rear brake
pressure in proportion to the front brake pressure. If impending rear wheel lock-up is sensed, the
CAB signals the RWAL valve to modulate hydraulic brake pressure to the rear wheels to prevent
lock-up.
NORMAL BRAKING
Since the RWAL valve also performs the EVBP or proportioning function, vehicle deceleration
under normal braking may be sufficient to trigger the EVBP function of the RWAL system without
full RWAL activity as would normally occur during an impending rear wheel lock-up. As previously
mentioned, the isolation valve is selectively closed and opened to increase rear brake pressure in
proportion to the front brake pressure under EVBP control. Slight brake pedal pulsations may be
noticed as the isolation valve is opened.

Description
DESCRIPTION
An Electronic Stability Program/Brake Assist System (ESP/BAS) indicator is only found in the
instrument clusters for vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine. However, on vehicles not
equipped with the optional ESP/BAS, this indicator is electronically disabled. This indicator is
located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in the instrument cluster overlay.
The ESP/BAS indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text ESP BAS 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 ESP/BAS indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
Operation
OPERATION
The ESP/BAS indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when a problem has been
detected in the Electronic Stability Program (ESP)/Brake Assist System (BAS). 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 Controller Antilock Brake (CAB) and the
Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The ESP/BAS 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 ESP/BAS indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the ESP/BAS indicator is
illuminated for about four seconds as a bulb test.
- ESP/BAS Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic ESP/BAS
indicator lamp-ON message from the CAB or the TIPM, the ESP/BAS indicator will be illuminated.
The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB or
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 ESP/BAS 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 CAB and TIPM continually monitor the ESP/BAS system circuits and sensors to decide
whether the system is in good operating condition and the proper outputs to the components of the
system. The CAB or TIPM then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the
ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC).
For proper diagnosis of the ESP/BAS system, the CAB, the TIPM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or
the electronic communication related to ESP/BAS

DESCRIPTION
An Electronic Stability Program/Brake Assist System (ESP/BAS)/Traction Control System (TCS)
traction control indicator is only found in the instrument clusters for vehicles equipped with a
gasoline engine. However, on vehicles not equipped with the optional ESP/BAS/TCS, this indicator
is electronically disabled. This indicator is located in the lower portion of the tachometer dial face in
the instrument cluster overlay.
The traction control indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and
Display Symbol icon for Stability - Anti-Spin 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

The traction control indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
Operation
OPERATION
The traction control indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the Electronic
Stability Program (ESP)/Brake Assist System (BAS)/Traction Control System (TCS) has been
activated. 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 Controller
Antilock Brake (CAB) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The traction control indicator 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 indicator will always be
OFF when the ignition switch is in any position except ON or START. The indicator only illuminates
when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn ON the traction control indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the traction control indicator
is illuminated for about four seconds as a bulb test. The entire bulb test is a function of the CAB.
- Traction Control Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic
traction control indicator lamp-ON message from the CAB indicating that the ESP/BAS/TCS has
been activated, the traction control indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated
until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB, 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 traction control 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 CAB continually monitors the status of the inputs to the ESP/BAS/TCS systems to determine
the proper outputs to the components of the Antilock Brake System (ABS). The CAB then sends
the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC).
For further diagnosis of the traction control indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls
the indicator, refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing.

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. See: Testing and Inspection

Brake Pedal Assy: Description and Operation Adjustable Pedals System
DESCRIPTION
The Adjustable Pedals System (APS) is designed to enable the fore and aft repositioning of the
brake and accelerator pedals. This results in improved ergonomics in relation to the steering wheel
for taller and shorter drivers. Being able to adjust the pedal positions also allows the driver to set
steering wheel tilt and seat position to the most comfortable position. The position of the brake and
accelerator pedals can be adjusted without compromising safety or comfort in actuating the pedals.
Change of pedal position is accomplished by means of a motor driven screw. Operating the
adjustable pedal switch activates the pedal drive motor (1). The pedal drive motor turns a screw
that changes the position of the brake and accelerator pedals. The pedal can be moved rearward
(closer to the driver) or forward (away from driver). The brake pedal is moved on its drive screw to
a position where the driver feels most comfortable.
The accelerator pedal is moved at the same time and the same distance as the brake pedal.
Neither the pedal drive motor (1) nor drive mechanism are subject to the mechanical stress of
brake or accelerator application.
- SYSTEM FEATURES:
- Range of Adjustment: The pedals may be adjusted up to 3 in. (75 mm)
- Pedal Adjustment Speed: 0.5 in./sec (12.5 mm/sec)
- Pedal Adjustment Inhibitors: Pedal adjustment is inhibited when the vehicle is in reverse or when
cruise control is activated.

Brake Warning Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A brake indicator 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 brake indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the word BRAKE and the International
Control and Display Symbol icon for Brake Failure 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 brake indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Brake Warning Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The brake indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the parking brake is applied,
when there are certain brake hydraulic system malfunctions as indicated by a low brake hydraulic
fluid level condition, or when the brake fluid level switch is disconnected. The brake indicator can
also give an indication when certain faults are detected in the Antilock Brake System (ABS). This
indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster
programming, electronic messages received by the cluster from the Controller Antilock Brake
(CAB) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus, and a hard wired input from the park
brake switch.
The brake 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 brake indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the brake indicator is
illuminated for about four seconds as a bulb test. The entire bulb test is a function of the CAB.
- Brake Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic brake indicator
lamp-ON message from the CAB, the brake indicator will be illuminated. The CAB may also send
lamp-ON messages as feedback during ABS diagnostic procedures. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB, or until the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Park Brake Switch Input - Each time the cluster detects ground on the park brake switch sense
circuit (park brake switch closed = park brake applied or not fully released) while the ignition switch
is in the ON position, the brake indicator flashes ON and OFF. The indicator continues to flash until
the park brake switch sense input to the cluster is an open circuit (park brake switch open = park
brake fully released), or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs
first.
- Actuator Test - Each time the instrument cluster is put through the actuator test, the brake
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 park brake switch on the park brake pedal mechanism provides a hard wired ground input to
the instrument cluster circuitry through the park brake switch sense circuit whenever the park brake
is applied or not fully released. The CAB continually monitors the ABS system circuits and sensors,
including the brake fluid level switch on the brake master cylinder reservoir, to decide whether the
system is in good operating condition. The CAB then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF
message to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC). If the CAB sends a lamp-ON
message after the bulb test, it indicates that the CAB has detected a brake hydraulic system
malfunction or that the ABS system has become ineffective. The CAB will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any malfunction it detects.
For further diagnosis of the brake indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the LED,
refer to Instrument Cluster/Carrier Testing. The hard wired park brake switch input to the
instrument cluster may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to
the appropriate wiring information. For proper diagnosis of the brake fluid level switch, the ABS, the
CAB, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to brake indicator
operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
The hard wired park brake switch input to the EMIC may be diagnosed using conventional
diagnostic tools and procedures. 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.
However, conventional diagnostic methods may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the EMIC,
the Controller Antilock Brake (CAB), the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus, or the electronic
message inputs also used by the EMIC to provide brake indicator operation. The most reliable,
efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the EMIC, the CAB, the CAN data bus or the electronic
communication related to brake indicator operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer
to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Brake Caliper: Description and Operation Operation
DISC BRAKE CALIPER
When the brakes are applied fluid pressure is exerted against the caliper piston (2). The fluid
pressure is exerted equally and in all directions. This means pressure exerted against the caliper
piston and within the caliper bore will be equal.
Fluid pressure applied to the piston is transmitted directly to the inboard brake pad (5). This forces
the pad lining against the inner surface of the disc brake rotor. At the same time, fluid pressure
within the piston bore forces the caliper to slide inward on the mounting bolts. This action brings the
outboard brake pad lining (6) into contact with the outer surface of the disc brake rotor.
In summary, fluid pressure acting simultaneously on both piston and caliper, produces a strong
clamping action. When sufficient force is applied, friction will attempt to stop the rotors from turning
and bring the vehicle to a stop.
Application and release of the brake pedal generates only a very slight movement of the caliper
and piston. Upon release of the pedal, the caliper and piston return to a rest position. The brake
pads do not retract an appreciable distance from the rotor. In fact, clearance is usually at, or close
to zero. The reasons for this are to keep road debris from getting between the rotor and lining and
in wiping the rotor surface clear each revolution.
The caliper piston seal (4) controls the amount of piston (2) extension needed to compensate for
normal lining wear.
During brake application, the seal is deflected outward by fluid pressure and piston movement (6).
When the brakes (and fluid pressure) are released, the seal relaxes and retracts the piston (3).
The amount of piston retraction is determined by the amount of seal deflection. Generally the
amount is just enough to maintain contact between the piston and inboard brake pad.

Brake Rotor/Disc: Testing and Inspection Standard Procedure
STANDARD PROCEDURE
NOTE: A hub mounted on-vehicle lathe is highly recommended. This type of lathe trues the rotor to
the vehicles hub/bearing.
The disc brake rotor can be machined if scored or worn. The on-vehicle lathe must machine both
sides of the rotor simultaneously with dual cutter heads. The rotor mounting surface must be clean
before placing on the on-vehicle lathe. Equipment capable of machining only one side at a time
may produce a tapered rotor This type of rotor machining is not recommended.
NOTE: Proper wheel torque is also critical to help prevent any warping of the disc brake rotor.
CAUTION: Brake rotors that do not meet minimum thickness specifications before or after
machining must be replaced.

Brake Rotor/Disc: Testing and Inspection Disc Brake Rotor
DISC BRAKE ROTOR
The rotor braking surfaces should not be refinished unless necessary.
Light surface rust and scale can be removed with a lathe equipped with dual sanding discs. The
rotor surfaces can be restored by machining with a disc brake lathe if surface scoring and wear are
light.
Replace the rotor for the following conditions:
- Severely Scored
- Tapered
- Hard Spots
- Cracked
- Below Minimum Thickness
ROTOR MINIMUM THICKNESS
Measure rotor thickness at the center of the brake shoe contact surface. Replace the rotor if below
minimum thickness, or if machining would reduce thickness below the allowable minimum.
Rotor minimum thickness is usually specified on the rotor hub. The specification is either stamped
or cast into the hub surface.
ROTOR RUNOUT
Check rotor lateral runout with dial indicator C-3339 (1). Excessive lateral runout will cause brake
pedal pulsation and rapid, uneven wear of the brake shoes. Position the dial indicator plunger
approximately 25.4 mm (1 in.) inward from the rotor edge.
NOTE: Be sure wheel bearing has zero end play before checking rotor runout.
Maximum allowable rotor runout is 0.131 mm (0.005 in.) HD.
Maximum allowable rotor runout is 0.050 mm (0.002 in.) LD.
ROTOR THICKNESS VARIATION

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Brakes and Traction Control > Disc Brake System > Brake Rotor/Disc > Component
Information > Testing and Inspection > Standard Procedure > Page 11370
Variations in rotor thickness will cause pedal pulsation, noise and shudder.
Measure rotor thickness at 6 to 12 points around the rotor face.
Position the micrometer (1) approximately 25.4 mm (1 in.) from the rotor (2) outer circumference for
each measurement.
Thickness should not vary by more than 0.015 mm (0.0059 in.) from point-to-point on the rotor.
Machine or replace the rotor if necessary.

Brake Caliper: Description and Operation Operation
DISC BRAKE CALIPER
When the brakes are applied fluid pressure is exerted against the caliper piston (2). The fluid
pressure is exerted equally and in all directions. This means pressure exerted against the caliper
piston and within the caliper bore will be equal.
Fluid pressure applied to the piston is transmitted directly to the inboard brake pad (5). This forces
the pad lining against the inner surface of the disc brake rotor. At the same time, fluid pressure
within the piston bore forces the caliper to slide inward on the mounting bolts. This action brings the
outboard brake pad lining (6) into contact with the outer surface of the disc brake rotor.
In summary, fluid pressure acting simultaneously on both piston and caliper, produces a strong
clamping action. When sufficient force is applied, friction will attempt to stop the rotors from turning
and bring the vehicle to a stop.
Application and release of the brake pedal generates only a very slight movement of the caliper
and piston. Upon release of the pedal, the caliper and piston return to a rest position. The brake
pads do not retract an appreciable distance from the rotor. In fact, clearance is usually at, or close
to zero. The reasons for this are to keep road debris from getting between the rotor and lining and
in wiping the rotor surface clear each revolution.
The caliper piston seal (4) controls the amount of piston (2) extension needed to compensate for
normal lining wear.
During brake application, the seal is deflected outward by fluid pressure and piston movement (6).
When the brakes (and fluid pressure) are released, the seal relaxes and retracts the piston (3).
The amount of piston retraction is determined by the amount of seal deflection. Generally the
amount is just enough to maintain contact between the piston and inboard brake pad.

The piston is made from a phenolic resin (plastic material) and should be smooth and clean.
The piston must be replaced if cracked or scored. Do not attempt to restore a scored piston surface
by sanding or polishing.
CAUTION: If the caliper piston is replaced, install the same type of piston in the caliper. Never
interchange phenolic resin and steel caliper pistons. The pistons, seals, seal grooves, caliper bore
and piston tolerances are different.
The bore can be lightly polished with a brake hone (3) to remove very minor surface imperfections.
The caliper should be replaced if the bore is severely corroded, rusted, scored, or if polishing would
increase bore diameter more than 0.025 mm (0.001 inch).

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: Description and Operation
BRAKE FLUID
The brake fluid used in this vehicle must conform to DOT 3 specifications and SAE J1703
standards. No other type of brake fluid is recommended or approved for usage in the vehicle brake
system. Use only Mopar brake fluid or an equivalent from a tightly sealed container.
CAUTION: Never use reclaimed brake fluid or fluid from a container which has been left open. An
open container of brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air and contaminate the fluid.
CAUTION: Never use any type of a petroleum-based fluid in the brake hydraulic system. Use of
such type fluids will result in seal damage of the vehicle brake hydraulic system causing a failure of
the vehicle brake system. Petroleum based fluids would be items such as engine oil, transmission
fluid, power steering fluid, etc.

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.

Hydraulic Control Assembly - Antilock Brakes: Description and Operation HCU (Hydraulic Control
Unit)
Description
DESCRIPTION
The HCU (3) consists of a valve body, pump motor, low pressure accumulators, inlet valves, outlet
valves and noise attenuators.
Operation
OPERATION
Accumulators in the valve body store extra fluid released to the system for ABS mode operation.
The pump provides the fluid volume needed and is operated by a DC type motor. The motor is
controlled by the ABM.
The valves modulate brake pressure during antilock braking and are controlled by the ABM.
The HCU provides three channel pressure control to the front and rear brakes. One channel
controls the rear wheel brakes in tandem. The two remaining channels control the front wheel
brakes individually.
During antilock braking, the solenoid valves are opened and closed as needed.
During normal braking, the HCU solenoid valves and pump are not activated. The master cylinder
and power booster operate the same as a vehicle without an ABS brake system.
NOTE: The three modes mentioned below do occur but not necessarily in the order listed every
time.
During antilock braking, solenoid valve pressure modulation occurs in three stages, pressure
increase, pressure hold, and pressure decrease. The valves are all contained in the valve body
portion of the HCU.
PRESSURE DECREASE
The outlet valve is opened and the inlet valve is closed during the pressure decrease cycle.
A pressure decrease cycle is initiated when speed sensor signals indicate high wheel slip at one or
more wheels. At this point, the ABM closes the inlet then opens the outlet valve, which also opens
the return circuit to the accumulators. Fluid pressure is allowed to bleed off (decrease) as needed
to prevent wheel lock.
Once the period of high wheel slip has ended, the ABM closes the outlet valve and begins a
pressure increase or hold cycle as needed.
PRESSURE HOLD
Both solenoid valves are closed in the pressure hold cycle but only the inlet valve is energized.
Fluid apply pressure in the control channel is maintained at a constant rate. The ABM maintains the
hold cycle until sensor inputs indicate a pressure change is necessary.

PRESSURE INCREASE
The inlet valve is open and the outlet valve is closed during the pressure increase cycle. The
pressure increase cycle is used to reapply thew brakes. This cycle controls re-application of fluid
apply pressure.

Rear Wheel Antilock (RWAL) brake system is standard equipment on 1500 series vehicles. The
RWAL brake system is designed to prevent rear wheel lock-up on virtually all types of road
surfaces. RWAL braking is desirable because a vehicle which is stopped without locking the rear
wheels will retain directional stability. This allows the driver to retain greater control of the vehicle
during braking.
The valve is located on the drivers side inner fender under the hood. The valve modulates
hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes.
The RWAL components include:
- RWAL Valve(1)
- Controller Antilock brake (CAB)
- Rear Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS)
Operation
OPERATION
When the brakes are applied, hydraulic fluid is routed from the master cylinder's secondary circuit
to the RWAL valve. From there hydraulic fluid is routed to the rear brakes. The Controller Antilock
Brake (CAB) contains an Electronic Variable Brake Proportioning (EVBP) control algorithm, which
proportions the applied braking force to the rear wheels during braking. The EVBP function of the
RWAL system takes the place of a conventional hydraulic proportioning valve. The CAB monitors
the rear wheel speed through the rear wheel speed sensor and calculates an estimated vehicle
deceleration. When an established deceleration threshold is exceeded, an isolation valve is closed
to hold the applied brake pressure to the rear brakes constant. Upon further increases in the
estimated vehicle deceleration, the isolation valve is selectively opened to increase rear brake
pressure in proportion to the front brake pressure. If impending rear wheel lock-up is sensed, the
CAB signals the RWAL valve to modulate hydraulic brake pressure to the rear wheels to prevent
lock-up.
NORMAL BRAKING
Since the RWAL valve also performs the EVBP or proportioning function, vehicle deceleration
under normal braking may be sufficient to trigger the EVBP function of the RWAL system without
full RWAL activity as would normally occur during an impending rear wheel lock-up. As previously
mentioned, the isolation valve is selectively closed and opened to increase rear brake pressure in
proportion to the front brake pressure under EVBP control. Slight brake pedal pulsations may be
noticed as the isolation valve is opened.

Brake Master Cylinder: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A two-piece master cylinder is used on all models. The cylinder body containing the primary and
secondary pistons is made of aluminum. The removable fluid reservoir is made of nylon reinforced
with glass fiber. The reservoir stores reserve brake fluid for the hydraulic brake circuits and has a
switch for indicating low fluid levels. The reservoir is the only serviceable component.
The fluid compartments of the nylon reservoir are interconnected to permit fluid level equalization.
However, the equalization feature does not affect circuit separation in the event of a front or rear
brake malfunction. The reservoir compartments will retain enough fluid to operate the functioning
hydraulic circuit.
Care must be exercised when removing/installing the master cylinder connecting lines. The threads
in the cylinder fluid ports can be damaged if care is not exercised. Start all brake line fittings by
hand to avoid cross threading.
The cylinder reservoir can be replaced when necessary. However, the aluminum body of the
master cylinder is not a repairable component.
NOTE: If diagnosis indicates that an internal malfunction has occurred, the aluminum body must be
replaced as an assembly.

Brake Master Cylinder: Testing and Inspection
MASTER CYLINDER/POWER BOOSTER
1. Start engine and check booster vacuum hose connections. A hissing noise indicates vacuum
leak. Correct any vacuum leak before proceeding. 2. Stop engine and shift transmission into
Neutral. 3. Pump brake pedal until all vacuum reserve in booster is depleted. 4. Press and hold
brake pedal under light foot pressure. The pedal should hold firm, if the pedal falls away master
cylinder is faulty (internal
leakage).
5. Start engine and note pedal action. It should fall away slightly under light foot pressure then hold
firm. If no pedal action is discernible, power
booster, vacuum supply, or vacuum check valve is faulty. Proceed to the POWER BOOSTER
VACUUM TEST.
6. If the POWER BOOSTER VACUUM TEST passes, rebuild booster vacuum reserve as follows:
Release brake pedal. Increase engine speed to
1500 rpm, close the throttle and immediately turn off ignition to stop engine.
7. Wait a minimum of 90 seconds and try brake action again. Booster should provide two or more
vacuum assisted pedal applications. If vacuum
assist is not provided, booster is faulty.
POWER BOOSTER VACUUM TEST
1. Connect vacuum gauge (6) to booster check valve (4) with short length of hose (3) and T-fitting
(2). 2. Start and run engine at curb idle speed for one minute. 3. Observe the vacuum supply. If
vacuum supply is not adequate, repair vacuum supply. 4. Clamp (1) hose (7) shut between intake
vacuum source (5) and check valve (4). 5. Stop engine and observe vacuum gauge (6). 6. If
vacuum drops more than one inch HG (33 millibars) within 15 seconds, booster diaphragm or
check valve is faulty.
POWER BOOSTER CHECK VALVE TEST
1. Disconnect vacuum hose from check valve (1). 2. Remove check valve (1) and valve seal (2)
from booster (3). 3. Use a hand operated vacuum pump for test. 4. Apply 15-20 inches vacuum at

INSPECTION - REAR DRUM IN HAT BRAKE
As a general rule, riveted brake shoes (2) should be replaced when worn to within 0.78 mm (1/32
in.) of the rivet heads. Bonded lining should be replaced when worn to a thickness of 1.6 mm (1/16
in.).
Examine the lining contact pattern to determine if the shoes are bent or the drum is tapered. The
lining should exhibit contact across its entire width. Shoes (2) exhibiting contact only on one side
should be replaced and the drum checked for runout or taper.
Inspect the adjuster screw assembly (5). Replace the assembly if the star wheel or threads are
damaged, or the components are severely rusted or corroded.
Discard the brake springs (3) and retainer components (4) if worn, distorted or collapsed. Also
replace the springs if a brake drag condition had occurred. Overheating will distort and weaken the
springs.

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.

Hydraulic Brake Booster: Testing and Inspection
HYDRAULIC BOOSTER
The hydraulic booster uses hydraulic pressure from the power steering pump. Before diagnosing a
booster problem, first verify the power steering pump is operating properly. Perform the following
checks.
- Check the power steering fluid level.
- Check the brake fluid level.
- Check all power steering hoses and lines for leaks and restrictions.
- Check power steering pump pressure.
NOISES
The hydraulic booster unit will produce certain characteristic booster noises. The noises may occur
when the brake pedal is used in a manner not associated with normal braking or driving habits.
HISSING
A hissing noise may be noticed when above normal brake pedal pressure is applied, 40 lbs. or
above. The noise will be more noticeable if the vehicle is not moving. The noise will increase with
the brake pedal pressure and an increase of system operating temperature.
CLUNK-CHATTER-CLICKING
A clunk-chatter-clicking may be noticed when the brake pedal is released quickly, after above
normal brake pedal pressure is applied 50-100 lbs..
BOOSTER FUNCTION TEST
With the engine off depress the brake pedal several times to discharge the accumulator. Then
depress the brake pedal using 40 lbs. of force and start the engine. The brake pedal should fall and
then push back against your foot. This indicates the booster is operating properly.
ACCUMULATOR LEAKDOWN
1. Start the engine, apply the brakes and turn the steering wheel from lock to lock. This will ensure
the accumulator is charged. Turn off the engine
and let the vehicle sit for one hour. After one hour there should be at least two power assisted
brake application with the engine off. If the system does not retain a charge the booster must be
replaced.
2. With the engine off depress the brake pedal several times to discharge the accumulator. Grasp
the accumulator and see if it wobbles or turns. If it
does the accumulator has lost a gas charge and the booster must be replaced.
SEAL LEAKAGE
If the booster leaks from any of the seals the booster assembly must be replaced.
- INPUT ROD SEAL (3): Fluid leakage from rear end of the booster.
- PISTON SEAL (6): Fluid leakage from vent at front of booster.
- HOUSING SEAL (4): Fluid leakage between housing and housing cover.
- SPOOL VALVE SEAL (7): Fluid leakage near spool plug.
- RETURN PORT FITTING SEAL (8): Fluid leakage from port fitting.

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.

Parking Brake Warning Switch: Testing and Inspection
PARK BRAKE SWITCH
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. 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. 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. See: Antilock Brakes / Traction Control Systems/Testing and Inspection

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.

plastic or synthetic rubber insulating jacket. The wire used in the battery cables combines excellent
flexibility and reliability with high electrical current carrying capacity. The battery cables feature a
stamped brass clamping type female battery terminal crimped onto one end of the battery cable
wire and then solder-dipped. A square headed pinch-bolt and hex nut are installed at the open end
of the female battery terminal clamp. Large eyelet type terminals are crimped onto the opposite end
of the battery cable wire and then solder-dipped. The battery positive cable wires (1) have a red
insulating jacket to provide visual identification and feature a larger female battery terminal clamp
to allow connection to the larger battery positive terminal post. The battery negative cable wires (3)
have a black insulating jacket and a smaller female battery terminal clamp.
The battery cables cannot be repaired and, if damaged or inoperative they must be replaced. Both
the battery positive and negative cables are available for service replacement. Refer to the
appropriate wiring information for the location of the proper battery cable wire harness diagrams.
The wiring information also includes proper wire and connector repair procedures, further details on

Battery Cable: Description and Operation Battery Cables - Operation
OPERATION
The battery cables connect the battery terminal posts to the vehicle electrical system. These cables
also provide a path back to the battery for electrical current generated by the charging system for
restoring the voltage potential of the battery. The female battery terminal clamps on the ends of the
battery cable wires provide a strong and reliable connection of the battery cable to the battery
terminal posts. The terminal pinch bolts allow the female terminal clamps to be tightened around
the male terminal posts on the top of the battery. The eyelet terminals secured to the opposite ends
of the battery cable wires provide secure and reliable connection of the battery cables to the
vehicle electrical system.

Battery Cable: Testing and Inspection
BATTERY CABLES
A voltage drop test will determine if there is excessive resistance in the battery cable terminal
connections or the battery cables. If excessive resistance is found in the battery cable connections,
the connection point should be disassembled, cleaned of all corrosion or foreign material, then
reassembled. Following reassembly, check the voltage drop for the battery cable connection and
the battery cable again to confirm repair.
When performing the voltage drop test, it is important to remember that the voltage drop is giving
an indication of the resistance between the two points at which the voltmeter probes are attached.
EXAMPLE: When testing the resistance of the battery positive cable, touch the voltmeter leads to
the battery positive cable terminal clamp and to the battery positive cable eyelet terminal at the
starter solenoid B(+) terminal stud. If you probe the battery positive terminal post and the battery
positive cable eyelet terminal at the starter solenoid B(+) terminal stud, you are reading the
combined voltage drop in the battery positive cable terminal clamp-to-terminal post connection and
the battery positive cable.
VOLTAGE DROP TEST
WARNING: Models equipped with a diesel engine have an automatic shutdown (asd) relay located
in the power distribution center (PDC). Removal of the asd relay may not prevent the diesel engine
from starting. Be certain to disconnect the fuel shutdown solenoid wire harness connector to
prevent the engine from starting. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
The following operation will require a voltmeter accurate to 1/10 (0.10) volt. Before performing this
test, be certain that the following procedures are accomplished:
- The battery is fully-charged and tested.
- Fully engage the parking brake.
- If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, place the gearshift selector lever in the
Park position. If the vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission, place the gearshift selector
lever in the Neutral position and block the clutch pedal in the fully depressed position.
- Verify that all lamps and accessories are turned off.
1. Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter (1) to the battery negative terminal post. Connect the
negative lead of the voltmeter to the battery
negative cable terminal clamp. Rotate and hold the ignition switch in the Start position. Observe the
voltmeter. If voltage is detected, correct the poor connection between the battery negative cable
terminal clamp and the battery negative terminal post.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with two 12v batteries, step #1 must be performed twice, once for
each battery.

2. Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter (1) to the battery positive terminal post. Connect the
negative lead of the voltmeter to the battery
positive cable terminal clamp. Rotate and hold the ignition switch in the Start position. Observe the
voltmeter. If voltage is detected, correct the poor connection between the battery positive cable
terminal clamp and the battery positive terminal post.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with two 12v batteries, step #2 must be performed twice, once for
each battery.
3. Connect the voltmeter (2) to measure between the battery positive cable terminal clamp (1) and
the starter solenoid (3) B(+) terminal stud. Rotate
and hold the ignition switch in the Start position. Observe the voltmeter. If the reading is above 0.2
volt, clean and tighten the battery positive cable eyelet terminal connection at the starter solenoid
B(+) terminal stud. Repeat the test. If the reading is still above 0.2 volt, replace the faulty battery
positive cable.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with two 12v batteries, step #3 must be performed twice, once for
each battery.
4. Connect the voltmeter (1) to measure between the battery (2) negative cable terminal clamp and
a good clean ground on the engine block (3).
Rotate and hold the ignition switch in the Start position. Observe the voltmeter. If the reading is
above 0.2 volt, clean and tighten the battery negative cable eyelet terminal connection to the
engine block. Repeat the test. If the reading is still above 0.2 volt, replace the faulty battery
negative cable.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with two 12v batteries, step #4 must be performed twice, once for
each 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.

Voltage Regulator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Electronic Voltage Regulator (EVR) is not a separate component. It is actually a voltage
regulating circuit located within the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) (within the ECM for diesel
engines). The EVR is not serviced separately. If replacement is necessary, the PCM must be
replaced.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Voltage Regulator > Component Information >
Description and Operation > Description > Page 11758
Voltage Regulator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The amount of direct current produced by the generator is controlled by EVR circuitry contained
within the PCM. This circuitry is connected in series with the generators second rotor field terminal
and its ground.
Voltage is regulated by cycling the ground path to control the strength of the rotor magnetic field.
The EVR circuitry monitors system line voltage (B+) and battery temperature (refer to Battery
Temperature Sensor). It then determines a target charging voltage. If sensed battery voltage is 0.5
volts or lower than the target voltage, the PCM grounds the field winding until sensed battery
voltage is 0.5 volts above target voltage. A circuit in the PCM cycles the ground side of the
generator field up to 100 times per second (100Hz), but has the capability to ground the field
control wire 100% of the time (full field) to achieve the target voltage. If the charging rate cannot be
monitored (limp-in), a duty cycle of 25% is used by the PCM in order to have some generator
output. Also refer to Charging System Operation.

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.
- 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.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 11844
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.

Auxiliary Power Outlet: Description and Operation Power Outlet-Instrument Panel
Description
DESCRIPTION
A cigar lighter outlet is installed to the left of the center stack area in the lower instrument panel.
The cigar lighter outlet is secured by a snap fit within the bezel.
The cigar lighter outlet, plastic cap and the knob and heating element unit are available for service
replacement. These components cannot be repaired and, if inoperative or damaged, they must be
replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The cigar lighter consists of two major components: a knob and heating element unit, and the cigar
lighter base or outlet shell. The receptacle shell is connected to ground, and an insulated contact in
the bottom of the shell is connected to battery current. The cigar lighter receives battery voltage
from a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) when the ignition switch is in the Accessory or
Run positions.
The cigar lighter knob and heating element are encased within a spring-loaded housing, which also
features a sliding protective heat shield. When the knob and heating element are inserted in the
outlet shell, the heating element resistor coil is grounded through its housing to the outlet shell. If
the cigar lighter knob is pushed inward, the heat shield slides up toward the knob exposing the
heating element, and the heating element extends from the housing toward the insulated contact in
the bottom of the outlet shell.
Two small spring-clip retainers are located on either side of the insulated contact inside the bottom
of the outlet shell. These clips engage and hold the heating element against the insulated contact
long enough for the resistor coil to heat up. When the heating element is engaged with the contact,
battery current can flow through the resistor coil to ground, causing the resistor coil to heat.
When the resistor coil becomes sufficiently heated, excess heat radiates from the heating element
causing the spring-clips to expand. Once the spring-clips expand far enough to release the heating
element, the spring-loaded housing forces the knob and heating element to pop back outward to
their relaxed position. When the cigar lighter knob and element are pulled out of the outlet shell, the
protective heat shield slides downward on the housing so that the heating element is recessed and
shielded around its circumference for safety.

Auxiliary Power Outlet: Description and Operation Power Outlet-Console
Description
DESCRIPTION
Two power outlets are utilized on this model. One in the instrument panel center lower bezel and
the other in the center console. The power outlet bases are secured by a snap fit within the
instrument panel or trim panel. A plastic protective cap snaps into the power outlet base when the
power outlet is not being used, and hangs from the power outlet base mount by an integral bail
strap while the power outlet is in use.
The power outlet receptacle unit and the accessory power outlet protective cap are available for
service. The power outlet receptacle cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The power outlet base or receptacle shell is connected to ground, and an insulated contact in the
bottom of the shell is connected to battery current. The power outlet receives battery voltage from a
fuse in the integrated power module at all times.
While the power outlet is very similar to a cigar lighter base unit, it does not include the two small
spring-clip retainers inside the bottom of the receptacle shell that are used to secure the cigar
lighter heating element to the insulated contact.

DISCUSSION:
The Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is used to prevent battery discharge during shipping and long term
storage of the vehicles. The IOD fuse is located in the Total Integrated Power Module (TI PM). If
the fuse is not completely inserted partial contact of the fuse terminals could occur. When the
vehicle is prepped for customer delivery, ensure that the fuse is fully engaged (Fig. 1). The IOD
fuse must also be fully released to prevent battery drain from occurring when the vehicle is stored.
When the IOD fuse holder is depressed into the carrier, an initial distinct detent will be felt to
overcome the "pre-hold position". You must then continue to push straight down on the IOD
pre-holder until no further downward movement is encountered.
NOTE:
If the fuse is not pushed down symmetrically, two detents MAY be felt as each side snaps past the
pre-hold position. Push down until no further downward movement is encountered.
On 2006 and 2007 PT and PM vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, Security module
& siren (BUX), Wireless Control Module (RKE & SKREEM), Hands Free Module, Satellite Radio,
Power Mirrors, Clock, Memory Seat, Amplifier, CCN wake-up with ignition off and Homelink.
On 2006 and 2007 DR, DH or D1 vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, EVIC,

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.

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
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

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information >
Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 11908
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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component
Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 11945
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.

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.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).

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:

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.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:

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.

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
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.

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.
- 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.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Auxiliary Power Outlet > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 12211
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.

Auxiliary Power Outlet: Description and Operation Power Outlet-Instrument Panel
Description
DESCRIPTION
A cigar lighter outlet is installed to the left of the center stack area in the lower instrument panel.
The cigar lighter outlet is secured by a snap fit within the bezel.
The cigar lighter outlet, plastic cap and the knob and heating element unit are available for service
replacement. These components cannot be repaired and, if inoperative or damaged, they must be
replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The cigar lighter consists of two major components: a knob and heating element unit, and the cigar
lighter base or outlet shell. The receptacle shell is connected to ground, and an insulated contact in
the bottom of the shell is connected to battery current. The cigar lighter receives battery voltage
from a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) when the ignition switch is in the Accessory or
Run positions.
The cigar lighter knob and heating element are encased within a spring-loaded housing, which also
features a sliding protective heat shield. When the knob and heating element are inserted in the
outlet shell, the heating element resistor coil is grounded through its housing to the outlet shell. If
the cigar lighter knob is pushed inward, the heat shield slides up toward the knob exposing the
heating element, and the heating element extends from the housing toward the insulated contact in
the bottom of the outlet shell.
Two small spring-clip retainers are located on either side of the insulated contact inside the bottom
of the outlet shell. These clips engage and hold the heating element against the insulated contact
long enough for the resistor coil to heat up. When the heating element is engaged with the contact,
battery current can flow through the resistor coil to ground, causing the resistor coil to heat.
When the resistor coil becomes sufficiently heated, excess heat radiates from the heating element
causing the spring-clips to expand. Once the spring-clips expand far enough to release the heating
element, the spring-loaded housing forces the knob and heating element to pop back outward to
their relaxed position. When the cigar lighter knob and element are pulled out of the outlet shell, the
protective heat shield slides downward on the housing so that the heating element is recessed and
shielded around its circumference for safety.

the other in the center console. The power outlet bases are secured by a snap fit within the
instrument panel or trim panel. A plastic protective cap snaps into the power outlet base when the
power outlet is not being used, and hangs from the power outlet base mount by an integral bail
strap while the power outlet is in use.
The power outlet receptacle unit and the accessory power outlet protective cap are available for
service. The power outlet receptacle cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The power outlet base or receptacle shell is connected to ground, and an insulated contact in the
bottom of the shell is connected to battery current. The power outlet receives battery voltage from a
fuse in the integrated power module at all times.

DISCUSSION:
The Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is used to prevent battery discharge during shipping and long term
storage of the vehicles. The IOD fuse is located in the Total Integrated Power Module (TI PM). If
the fuse is not completely inserted partial contact of the fuse terminals could occur. When the
vehicle is prepped for customer delivery, ensure that the fuse is fully engaged (Fig. 1). The IOD
fuse must also be fully released to prevent battery drain from occurring when the vehicle is stored.
When the IOD fuse holder is depressed into the carrier, an initial distinct detent will be felt to
overcome the "pre-hold position". You must then continue to push straight down on the IOD
pre-holder until no further downward movement is encountered.
NOTE:
If the fuse is not pushed down symmetrically, two detents MAY be felt as each side snaps past the
pre-hold position. Push down until no further downward movement is encountered.
On 2006 and 2007 PT and PM vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, Security module
& siren (BUX), Wireless Control Module (RKE & SKREEM), Hands Free Module, Satellite Radio,
Power Mirrors, Clock, Memory Seat, Amplifier, CCN wake-up with ignition off and Homelink.
On 2006 and 2007 DR, DH or D1 vehicles the circuits fed by the IOD fuse are: Radio, EVIC,
Wireless Control Module (RKE & SKREEM), Hands Free Module, Satellite Radio, Video Screen,
CCN wake-up with ignition off, Underhood Lamp, CCN Interior Lighting

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.
- 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.

Information and Instructions > Page 12275
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.
- 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.

Information and Instructions > Page 12312
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.

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

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).
c. Select "ECU View."
d. Scroll down and select "WCM" in the list of modules.
e. Select "Misc. Functions."
f. Scroll to "WCM Replaced."
g. Press "Start".
h. Press "Next".
i. Select "Show Keyboard".
j. Enter the vehicle PIN number.
k. Select "Next".
l. Verify PIN is correct.
m. Select "Next".
n. Follow on-screen prompts to complete WCM function programing for Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) and so on.
0. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. Wait 30 seconds.
p. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)

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 (J1) Sebring (China)
2007 - 2008 (JS) Avenger/Sebring
2007 - 2008 (KA) Nitro
2008 (KK) Liberty/Cherokee
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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).
c. Select "ECU View."
d. Scroll down and select "WCM" in the list of modules.
e. Select "Misc. Functions."
f. Scroll to "WCM Replaced."
g. Press "Start".
h. Press "Next".
i. Select "Show Keyboard".
j. Enter the vehicle PIN number.
k. Select "Next".
l. Verify PIN is correct.
m. Select "Next".
n. Follow on-screen prompts to complete WCM function programing for Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) and so on.
0. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. Wait 30 seconds.
p. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)

Power Distribution Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The Totally Integrated Power Module (2)(TIPM) is a combination unit that performs the functions of
the Power Distribution Center (PDC) and the Front Control Module. The TIPM is a printed circuit
board based module that contains fuses, internal relays and a microprocessor that performs the
functions previously executed by the FCM. The TIPM (2) is located in the engine compartment,
next to the battery (1) and connects directly to the B+ cable (5) via a stud located on top of the unit.
The ground connection is via electrical connectors. The TIPM provides the primary means of
voltage distribution and protection for the entire vehicle.
The molded plastic TIPM housing includes a base and cover. The TIPM cover is easily opened or
removed for service and has a fuse and relay layout map integral to the inside surface of the cover.
The TIPM housing base and cover are secured in place via mounting tabs. The mounting tabs
secure the TIPM (2) to the battery tray mounting bracket (3).

Description
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. See: Steering/Testing and Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures
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.

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).
NOTE: Each front wheel should be adjusted for one-half of the total toe position specification. This
will ensure the steering wheel will be centered when the wheels are positioned straight-ahead.
3. Adjust the wheel toe position by turning the inner tie rod (2) as necessary. 4. Tighten the tie rod
jam nut (1) to 127 Nm (94 ft. lbs.). 5. Verify the specifications 6. Turn off engine.

Alignment: Service and Repair Camber, Caster And Toe Adjustment
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).
NOTE: Each front wheel should be adjusted for one-half of the total toe position specification. This
will ensure the steering wheel will be centered when the wheels are positioned straight-ahead.

3. Adjust the wheel toe position by turning the inner tie rod (2) as necessary. 4. Tighten the tie rod
jam nut (1) to 127 Nm (94 ft. lbs.). 5. Verify the specifications 6. Turn off engine.

Alignment: Service and Repair Alignment Link/Coil Suspension
ALIGNMENT LINK/COIL SUSPENSION
Before each alignment reading the vehicle should be jounced (rear first, then front). Grasp each
bumper at the center and jounce the vehicle up and down several times. Always release the
bumper in the down position. Set the front end alignment to specifications while the vehicle is in its
NORMALLY LOADED CONDITION.
CAMBER: The wheel camber angle is preset and is not adjustable.
CASTER: Check the caster of the front axle for correct angle. Be sure the axle is not bent or
twisted. Road test the vehicle and make left and right turn. Observe the steering wheel
return-to-center position. Low caster will cause poor steering wheel returnability.
Caster can be adjusted by rotating the cams (3) on the lower suspension arm.
TOE POSITION: The wheel toe position adjustment should be the final adjustment.
1. Start the engine and turn wheels both ways before straightening the wheels. Center and Secure
the steering wheel and turn off engine. 2. Loosen the adjustment sleeve clamp bolts. 3. Adjust the
right wheel toe position with the drag link. Turn the sleeve until the right wheel is at the correct
TOE-IN position. Position clamp bolts
to their original position and tighten to specifications. Make sure the toe setting does not change
during clamp tightening.
4. Adjust left wheel toe position with tie rod at left knuckle. Turn the sleeve until the left wheel is at
the correct TOE-IN position. Position clamp
bolts to their original position and tighten to specifications. Make sure the toe setting does not
change during clamp tightening.
NOTE: Toe setting will change during tightening, Make sure to verify reading after tightening.
5. Verify the right toe setting and a straight steering wheel. 6. Road test the vehicle.

Alignment: Service and Repair Curb Height Measurement (HD)
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.
1. Front 4X2 On each side of the vehicle, measure the distance from the top of the jounce bumper
flange (2) to the bottom of the frame rail (1).
2. Front 4X4 On each side of the vehicle, measure the distance from the top of the axle (2) to the
bottom of the jounce bumper flange (1).

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

IMPORTANT:
This recall only applies to vehicles that had certain Mopar service parts steering components
installed.
IMPORTANT:
Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory. Federal law requires you to
complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider
this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for
service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
During a prior service appointment, a Mopar service parts steering linkage was installed on about
19,400 of the above vehicles. The drag link inner joint may fracture under certain driving conditions.
This could result in a loss of steering control and cause a crash without warning.
Also, the steering damper bracket at the tie rod tube may loosen. This could allow the bracket to
slide on the tube and may cause increased vehicle turning radius.
Repair
The steering linkage must be inspected and some steering linkage components may need to be
replaced.
NOTE:
The initial steering linkage inspection process can be done by write up personnel in the write up
area (see Step 1 of the service procedure). Vehicles found with original style steering linkage can
be immediately returned to the customer.

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: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: It is normal that some pressure will build up inside the reservoir, especially, with a warm
vehicle. A slight popping noise upon removal of the cap is normal. The fluid level should read
between the ADD and the FULL COLD marks. When the fluid is hot it should read between ADD
and FULL HOT marks. Only add fluid when the vehicle is cold.
The recommended fluid for the power steering system is Mopar(R) ATF +4.
Mopar(R) ATF+4, when new is red in color. The ATF+4 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+4 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: Testing and Inspection
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.

Power Steering Fluid: Service and Repair
POWER STEERING SYSTEM BLEEDING
WARNING: The fluid level should be checked with engine off to prevent injury from moving
components.
CAUTION: Mopar(R) Power Steering Fluid + 4 or Mopar(R) ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid is
to be used in the power steering system. Both Fluids have the same material standard
specifications (MS-9602). 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 another fluid is used. Do
not overfill the system.
CAUTION: If the air is not purged from the power steering system correctly, pump failure could
result.
NOTE: Be sure the vacuum tool used in the following procedure is clean and free of any fluids.
1. Check the fluid level. As measured on the side of the reservoir, the level should indicate between
MAX and MIN when the fluid is at normal
ambient temperature. Adjust the fluid level as necessary.
2. Tightly insert Power Steering Cap Adapter (4), Special Tool 9688, into the mouth of the reservoir
(3).
CAUTION: Failure to use a the vacuum pump reservoir (1) may allow power steering fluid to be
sucked into the hand vacuum pump.
3. Attach Hand Vacuum Pump (2), Special Tool C-4207 or equivalent, with reservoir (1) attached,
to the Power Steering Cap Adapter (4).
CAUTION: Do not run the engine while vacuum is applied to the power steering system. Damage
to the power steering pump can occur.
NOTE: When performing the following step make sure the vacuum level is maintained during the
entire time period.
4. Using Hand Vacuum Pump (2), apply 68-85 kPa (20-25 in. Hg) of vacuum to the system for a
minimum of three minutes. 5. Slowly release the vacuum and remove the special tools. 6. Adjust
the fluid level as necessary. Refer to STEP 1. 7. Repeat STEP 1 through STEP 6 until the fluid no
longer drops when vacuum is applied. 8. Start the engine and cycle the steering wheel lock-to-lock
three times.
NOTE: Do not hold the steering wheel at the stops.
9. Stop the engine and check for leaks at all connections.
10. Check for any signs of air in the reservoir and check the fluid level. If air is present, repeat the

POWER STEERING SYSTEM BLEEDING
WARNING: The fluid level should be checked with engine off to prevent injury from moving
components.
CAUTION: Mopar(R) Power Steering Fluid + 4 or Mopar(R) ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid is
to be used in the power steering system. Both Fluids have the same material standard
specifications (MS-9602). 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 another fluid is used. Do
not overfill the system.
CAUTION: If the air is not purged from the power steering system correctly, pump failure could
result.
NOTE: Be sure the vacuum tool used in the following procedure is clean and free of any fluids.
1. Check the fluid level. As measured on the side of the reservoir, the level should indicate between
MAX and MIN when the fluid is at normal
ambient temperature. Adjust the fluid level as necessary.
2. Tightly insert Power Steering Cap Adapter (4), Special Tool 9688, into the mouth of the reservoir
(3).
CAUTION: Failure to use a the vacuum pump reservoir (1) may allow power steering fluid to be
sucked into the hand vacuum pump.
3. Attach Hand Vacuum Pump (2), Special Tool C-4207 or equivalent, with reservoir (1) attached,
to the Power Steering Cap Adapter (4).
CAUTION: Do not run the engine while vacuum is applied to the power steering system. Damage
to the power steering pump can occur.
NOTE: When performing the following step make sure the vacuum level is maintained during the
entire time period.
4. Using Hand Vacuum Pump (2), apply 68-85 kPa (20-25 in. Hg) of vacuum to the system for a
minimum of three minutes. 5. Slowly release the vacuum and remove the special tools. 6. Adjust
the fluid level as necessary. Refer to STEP 1. 7. Repeat STEP 1 through STEP 6 until the fluid no
longer drops when vacuum is applied. 8. Start the engine and cycle the steering wheel lock-to-lock
three times.
NOTE: Do not hold the steering wheel at the stops.
9. Stop the engine and check for leaks at all connections.
10. Check for any signs of air in the reservoir and check the fluid level. If air is present, repeat the

FLUSHING POWER STEERING SYSTEM
Flushing is required when the power steering/hydraulic booster system fluid has become
contaminated. Contaminated fluid in the steering/booster system can cause seal deterioration and
affect steering gear/booster spool valve operation.
NOTE: The engine should not be run so that all of the fluid is drained from the system. The pump
should never be run without fluid.
1. Raise the front end of the vehicle off the ground until the wheels are free to turn. 2. Remove the
return line from the pump.
NOTE: If vehicle is equipped with a hydraulic booster remove both return lines from the pump.
3. Plug the return line port/ports at the pump. 4. Position the return line/lines into a large container
to catch the fluid. 5. While an assistant is filling the pump reservoir start the engine. 6. With the
engine running at idle turn the wheel back and forth.
NOTE: Do not contact or hold the wheel against the steering stops.
7. Run a quart of fluid through the system then stop the engine and install the return line/lines. 8.
Fill the system with fluid and perform Steering Pump Initial Operation. 9. Start the engine and run it
for fifteen minutes then stop the engine.
10. Remove the return line/lines from the pump and plug the pump port/ports. 11. Pour fresh fluid
into the reservoir and check the draining fluid for contamination. If the fluid is still contaminated,
then flush the system again. 12. Install the return line/lines and perform Steering Pump Initial
Operation.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A pressure sensing switch is used in the power steering system. It is mounted on the high-pressure
steering hose. This switch will only be used on HD vehicles with the 5.7L engines. There is no
pressure switch used for the 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.9LDiesel engine or the 5.7L LD vehicle pump.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The switch is used on the 5.7L V-8 engines HD vehicles only.
The power steering pressure switch provides an input to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
This input is provided during periods of high steering pump load and low engine rpm; such as
during parking maneuvers. The PCM increases the idle speed through the Idle Air Control (IAC)
motor. This is done to prevent the engine from stalling under the increased load.
When steering pump pressure exceeds 3275 kPa ± 690 kPa (475 psi ± 100 psi), the Normally
Closed (NC) switch will open and the PCM will increase the engine idle speed. This will prevent the
engine from stalling.
When pump pressure drops to approximately 1379 kPa (200 psi), the switch circuit will re-close
and engine idle speed will return to its previous setting.

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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).
c. Select "ECU View."
d. Scroll down and select "WCM" in the list of modules.
e. Select "Misc. Functions."
f. Scroll to "WCM Replaced."
g. Press "Start".
h. Press "Next".
i. Select "Show Keyboard".
j. Enter the vehicle PIN number.
k. Select "Next".
l. Verify PIN is correct.
m. Select "Next".
n. Follow on-screen prompts to complete WCM function programing for Tire Pressure Monitoring

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 (J1) Sebring (China)
2007 - 2008 (JS) Avenger/Sebring
2007 - 2008 (KA) Nitro
2008 (KK) Liberty/Cherokee
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.

PARTS REQUIRED:
NOTE:
The part numbers listed in the following part reference table are to be used as A GUIDE to help
determine if the WCM, that is currently in the vehicle, may require replacement. If it is determined
that the WCM requires replacement, then ALWAYS REFER TO THE PARTS MANUAL to
determine the correct WCM for the specific vehicle in question. In some earlier model years, the
WCM may rule (supersede) to one of the part numbers listed in the table. ALWAYS REFER TO
THE PARTS MANUAL (not the part reference table) to determine the correct part number ruling
(supercedence / substitution). MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE CORRECT WCM IS ORDERED THE
FIRST TIME FOR THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE IN QUESTION.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE:
If the vehicle (a JS model vehicle in certain International markets) is equipped with an Electric
Steering Column Lock (ELV), then the WCM and the ELV must be replaced. Replace the WCM
and then the ELV. Next program the WCM and at least one (1) ignition key BEFORE programming
the ELV. IMPORTANT: Not following this repair process correctly will cause the new ELV to fail.
NOTE:
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking
bolt to the unlocked position. LEAVE the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is
being removed.
1. If vehicle is equipped with a Steering Shaft Lock Module (JS - Avenger I Stratus - some
International Markets), then the Shaft Lock Module will require replacement. From the Service Info
tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Security Information > Module, Shaft Lock >
Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
The shaft lock module cannot be removed from the steering column while the locking bolt is in the
locked position without irreversibly damaging the column. Before attempting service, the ignition
key must have been inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. Then rotate the steering wheel from
side to side. If the steering wheel can be rotated, the locking bolt is in the unlocked position. Leave
the key in the ignition lock cylinder until shaft lock module removal has been completed. If the
steering wheel cannot be rotated, test and repair the wiring circuits between the module and the
ignition switch as required. If no problem is found in these circuits, the module has failed with the
locking bolt in the locked position and both the module and the steering column must be replaced
with new units.
2. Replace the WCM/SKREEM. Refer to TechCONNECT for detailed service information. From the
Service Info tab select: 8 - Electrical > Vehicle Theft Security - Service Information > Module,
Sentry Key Remote Entry > Removal and Installation.
NOTE:
Obtain the vehicle PIN number prior to programming WCM/SKREEM or ELV.
NOTE:
If during the following steps the PIN number is properly entered but is rejected, then reenter the
PIN number again until it is accepted.
3. After both the WCM/SKREEM and the ELV (if equipped) have been replaced, Program the
WCM/SKREEM as follows:
a. Turn the ignition key to the ON position, (Engine Off)
b. Connect the scan tool (StarSCAN(R)) to the data link connector and turn the ignition to the RUN
position, (engine off).

Subject
During a prior service appointment, a Mopar service parts steering linkage was installed on about
19,400 of the above vehicles. The drag link inner joint may fracture under certain driving conditions.
This could result in a loss of steering control and cause a crash without warning.
Also, the steering damper bracket at the tie rod tube may loosen. This could allow the bracket to
slide on the tube and may cause increased vehicle turning radius.
Repair
The steering linkage must be inspected and some steering linkage components may need to be
replaced.
NOTE:
The initial steering linkage inspection process can be done by write up personnel in the write up
area (see Step 1 of the service procedure). Vehicles found with original style steering linkage can
be immediately returned to the customer.

IMPORTANT:
This recall only applies to vehicles that had certain Mopar service parts steering components
installed.
IMPORTANT:
Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory. Federal law requires you to
complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider
this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for
service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
During a prior service appointment, a Mopar service parts steering linkage was installed on about
19,400 of the above vehicles. The drag link inner joint may fracture under certain driving conditions.
This could result in a loss of steering control and cause a crash without warning.
Also, the steering damper bracket at the tie rod tube may loosen. This could allow the bracket to
slide on the tube and may cause increased vehicle turning radius.
Repair
The steering linkage must be inspected and some steering linkage components may need to be
replaced.
NOTE:
The initial steering linkage inspection process can be done by write up personnel in the write up
area (see Step 1 of the service procedure). Vehicles found with original style steering linkage can
be immediately returned to the customer.

IMPORTANT:
This recall only applies to vehicles that had certain Mopar service parts steering components
installed.
IMPORTANT:
Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory. Federal law requires you to
complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider
this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for
service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
During a prior service appointment, a Mopar service parts steering linkage was installed on about
19,400 of the above vehicles. The drag link inner joint may fracture under certain driving conditions.
This could result in a loss of steering control and cause a crash without warning.
Also, the steering damper bracket at the tie rod tube may loosen. This could allow the bracket to
slide on the tube and may cause increased vehicle turning radius.
Repair
The steering linkage must be inspected and some steering linkage components may need to be
replaced.
NOTE:
The initial steering linkage inspection process can be done by write up personnel in the write up
area (see Step 1 of the service procedure). Vehicles found with original style steering linkage can
be immediately returned to the customer.

Information > Testing and Inspection > Front - Independent Front Suspension
Suspension Strut / Shock Absorber: Testing and Inspection Front - Independent Front Suspension
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
A knocking or rattling noise from a shock absorber may be caused by movement between
mounting bushings and metal brackets or attaching components. These noises can usually be
stopped by tightening the attaching nuts. If the noise persists, inspect for damaged and worn
bushings, and attaching components. Repair as necessary if any of these conditions exist.
WARNING: The shock absorbers are under high pressure. Do Not heat or attempt to open the
shock absorbers.
A squeal noise from the shock absorber may be caused by the hydraulic valving and may be
intermittent. This condition is not repairable and the shock absorber must be replaced.
A squeak or creak noise coming from the shock area may be related to any of the suspension
components or mounts, but not necessarily the shock.
NOTE: When inspecting the shock absorber, do not clamp the body or the piston rod.
NOTE: Monotube shock absorber compression forces will be much higher than standard shock
absorbers.
The shock absorbers are not refillable or adjustable. If a malfunction occurs, the shock absorber
must be replaced. To check a shock absorber, grasp the tube and invert the shock so the piston
rod touches the ground, then compress the shock four or five times. The action throughout each
stroke should be smooth and even, and the piston rod should extend from the shock on its own.
The shock absorber bushings do not require any type of lubrication. Do not attempt to stop bushing
noise by lubricating them. Grease and mineral oil-base lubricants will deteriorate the bushing.

Suspension Strut / Shock Absorber: Testing and Inspection Front - Link/Coil
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
A knocking or rattling noise from a shock absorber (5) may be caused by movement between
mounting grommets (1&6) and metal brackets (3) or attaching components. These noises can
usually be stopped by tightening the attaching nuts. If the noise persists, inspect for damaged and
worn bushings, and attaching components. Repair as necessary if any of these conditions exist.
A squeaking noise from the shock absorber may be caused by the hydraulic valving and may be
intermittent. This condition is not repairable and the shock absorber must be replaced.
The shock absorbers are not refillable or adjustable. If a malfunction occurs, the shock absorber
must be replaced. To test a shock absorber, hold it in an upright position and force the piston in
and out of the cylinder four or five times. The action throughout each stroke should be smooth and
even.
The shock absorber bushings do not require any type of lubrication. Do not attempt to stop bushing
noise by lubricating them. Grease and mineral oil-base lubricants will deteriorate the bushing.

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). 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.

Tires: Description and Operation Tire
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. 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 100 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. Refer to the Owner's Manual for more
information.

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. Refer to Owner's Manual for complete details.

Tires: Description and Operation Radial - Ply Tires
RADIAL - PLY TIRES
Radial-ply tires improve handling, tread life and ride quality, and decrease rolling resistance.
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.

Tires: Description and Operation 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 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: 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.

Remove the protective coating on the tires before delivery of a vehicle. This coating may cause
deterioration of the tires.
To remove the protective coating, apply warm water and let it soak for a few minutes. Afterwards,
scrub the coating away with a soft bristle brush. Steam cleaning may also be used to remove the
coating.
NOTE: DO NOT use gasoline, mineral oil, oil-based solvent or a wire brush for cleaning.
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.

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
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: Description and Operation Description - 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: Testing and Inspection
WHEEL INSPECTION
Inspect wheels for:
- Excessive runout
- Dents, cracks or irregular bends
- Damaged wheel stud (lug) holes
- Air Leaks
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 must 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.
WARNING: Replacement with used wheels is 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.

Accumulator HVAC: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
To protect the A/C compressor from any liquid slugging, an A/C accumulator (5) is used in this A/C
system to retain any refrigerant that may exit from the evaporator in a liquid state.
The A/C accumulator is mounted in the engine compartment between the evaporator outlet tube (2)
and the A/C suction line (6). An integral mounting bracket (4) is used to secure the accumulator to
the dash panel (3). The A/C low side service port (1) is mounted to the top of the A/C accumulator.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Accumulator HVAC > Component Information > Description
and Operation > Description > Page 13228
Accumulator HVAC: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Refrigerant enters the A/C accumulator (1) mostly as a low pressure vapor through the inlet tube
(2). Any liquid, oil-laden refrigerant falls to the bottom of the canister, which acts as a separator. A
desiccant bag (3) is mounted inside the accumulator canister to absorb any moisture which may
have entered and become trapped within the refrigerant system. A filter (4) is also mounted inside
the canister to trap any foreign material that may have entered the refrigerant system during
assembly. The low pressure vapor exits the A/C accumulator through the outlet tube (5). On this
model, the low side service port (6) is located at the top of the A/C accumulator.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a
refrigerant line is opened. Failure to replace the rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result
in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C accumulator has no serviceable parts except for the rubber O-ring seals, low side service
port valve, cap and secondary retaining clips. The O-ring seals used on the connections are made
from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The O-ring seals must be replaced
whenever the A/C accumulator is removed and installed.
The A/C accumulator cannot be repaired and must be replaced if found to be leaking or damaged,
or if an internal failure of the A/C compressor has occurred.

Air Door Actuator / Motor: Description and Operation Blend Door Actuator
Description
DESCRIPTION
The blend door actuators are reversible, 12-volt direct current (DC), servo motors. Models with the
single zone heating-A/C system have a single blend-air door, which is controlled by a single blend
door actuator. Models with the dual zone system have two blend-air doors, which are controlled by
two blend door actuators.
The blend door actuator (1) for the single zone heating-A/C system is located near the center of the
HVAC housing (2), close to the dash panel.
For the dual zone heating-A/C system, the same blend door actuator used for the single zone
system becomes the driver side blend door actuator, which is mechanically connected to only the
driver side blend-air door. A second separate blend door actuator (3) located on the top of the
HVAC housing is mechanically connected to the passenger side blend-air door.
All actuators (1) are interchangeable with each other. Each actuator is contained within an identical
black molded plastic housing with an integral wire connector receptacle (2). Each actuator also has
an identical output shaft with splines (3) that connect it to its respective door linkage and three
integral mounting tabs (4) that allow the actuator to be secured to the HVAC housing. The blend
door actuators do not require mechanical indexing to the blend-air doors, as they are electronically
calibrated by the A/C-heater control.
Operation
OPERATION
The blend door actuators are connected to the A/C-heater control through the vehicle electrical
system by a dedicated two-wire lead and connector of the
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))

HVAC wire harness. The blend door actuator(s) can move the blend-air door(s) in two directions.
When the A/C-heater control pulls the voltage on one side of the motor connection high and the
other connection low, the blend-air door will move in one direction. When the A/C-heater control
reverses the polarity of the voltage to the motor, the blend-air door moves in the opposite direction.
When the A/C-heater control makes the voltage to both connections high or both connections low,
the blend-air door stops and will not move. The A/C-heater control uses a pulse-count positioning
system to monitor the operation and relative position of the blend door actuator(s) and the blend-air
door(s). The A/C-heater control learns the blend-air door stop positions during the calibration
procedure and will store a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for any problems it detects in the blend
door actuator circuits.
The blend door actuators are diagnosed using a scan tool.
The blend door actuators cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found inoperative
or damaged.

Air Door Actuator / Motor: Description and Operation Mode Door Actuator
Description
DESCRIPTION
The mode door actuators are reversible, 12-volt direct current (DC) servo motors. The heating-A/C
systems on this vehicle use two mode door actuators. One for the panel/floor-air door and one for
the defrost-air door.
Both the defrost door actuator (1) and the panel/floor door actuator (2) and the are located on the
driver side end of the HVAC housing (3), close to the dash panel.
All actuators (1) are interchangeable with each other. Each actuator is contained within an identical
black molded plastic housing with an integral wire connector receptacle (2). Each actuator also has
an identical output shaft with splines (3) that connects it to its respective door linkage and three
integral mounting tabs (4) that allow the actuator to be secured to the HVAC housing. The mode
door actuators do not require mechanical indexing to the mode- air doors, as they are electronically
calibrated by the A/C-heater control.
Operation
OPERATION
The mode door actuators are connected to the A/C-heater control through the vehicle electrical
system by dedicated two-wire leads and connectors of the HVAC wire harness. The mode door
actuators can move the defrost-air door and the panel/floor-air door in two directions. When the
A/C-heater control pulls the voltage on one side of the motor connection high and the other
connection low, the mode-air door will move in one direction. When the A/C-heater control reverses
the polarity of the voltage to the motor, the mode-air door moves in the opposite direction.
When the A/C-heater control makes the voltage to both connections high or both connections low,

Air Door Actuator / Motor: Description and Operation Recirculation Door Actuator
Description
DESCRIPTION
The recirculation door actuator (1) is a reversible 12-volt direct current (DC) servo motor. The
single recirculation door actuator is located on the passenger side end of the HVAC housing (2), on
the top of the air inlet housing.
All actuators (1) are interchangeable with each other. Each actuator is contained within an identical
black molded plastic housing with an integral wire connector receptacle (2). Each actuator also has
an identical output shaft with splines (3) that connects it to its respective door linkage and three
integral mounting tabs (4) that allow the actuator to be secured to the HVAC housing. The
recirculation door actuator does not require mechanical indexing to the recirculation-air door, as it
is electronically calibrated by the A/C-heater control.
Operation
OPERATION
The recirculation door actuator is connected to the heater-A/C control module through the vehicle
electrical system by a dedicated two-wire lead and connector of the HVAC wire harness. The
recirculation door actuator can move the recirculation-air door in two directions. When the
A/C-heater control pulls the voltage on one side of the motor connection high and the other
connection low, the recirculation-air door will move in one direction.
When the A/C-heater control makes the voltage to both connections high or both connections low,
the recirculation-air door stops and will not move. The A/C-heater control uses a pulse-count
positioning system to monitor the operation and relative position of the recirculation door actuator
and the recirculation-air door. The A/C-heater control learns the recirculation-air door stop positions
during the calibration procedure and will store a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for any problems it
detects in the recirculation door actuator circuits.
The recirculation door actuator is diagnosed using a scan tool.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The ambient temperature sensor is a variable resistor mounted to a bracket that is secured with a
screw to the left side of the radiator yoke, behind the radiator grille and in front of the engine
compartment.
The ambient temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if inoperative or damaged, it
must be replaced.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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) or
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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) or Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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 kilohms. At 55° C (130° F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance should read between these two values. If OK,
perform further diagnosis of the Compass Mini - Trip Computer (CMTC) or Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) as applicable. If not OK, replace the inoperative ambient temperature
sensor.

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.

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.
- 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.

Information and Instructions > Page 13333
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.

Blower Motor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The blower motor is used to control the velocity of air moving through the HVAC housing by
spinning the blower wheel within the HVAC air inlet housing at the selected speed.
The blower motor will operate whenever the ignition switch is in the Run position and the blower
motor control is in any position except Off. The blower motor receives battery current through the
totally integrated power module (TIPM) whenever the ignition switch is in the Run position.
Blower motor speed is controlled by regulating the ground path through or around the blower motor
resistor and through the blower motor control located within the A/C-heater control.
The blower motor can be accessed for service from underneath the instrument panel.
NOTE: The blower motor is supplied with a 12V feed from the TIPM, through the blower motor
resistor, whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN position. Due to an open circuit condition within
the blower motor control switch the TIPM is UNABLE to detect an OPEN circuit for the blower
motor.
The blower motor control system is diagnosed using a scan tool.
The blower motor and blower motor wheel are factory balanced as an assembly and cannot be
adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found inoperative or damaged.

Blower Motor Resistor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The blower motor resistor is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated wire
lead and connector of the HVAC wire harness. The blower motor resistor has multiple resistor
wires, each of which will reduce the current flow through the blower motor to change the blower
motor speed.
The blower motor control for the heating-A/C system directs the ground path for the blower motor
through the correct resistor wire to obtain the selected speed. With the blower motor control in the
lowest speed position, the ground path for the blower motor is applied through all of the resistor
wires. Each higher speed selected with the blower motor control applies the blower motor ground
path through fewer of the resistor wires, increasing the blower motor speed.
The blower motor resistor cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found inoperative
or damaged.

Compressor Clutch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Denso 10S17 A/C clutch assembly shown. Visteon HS-18 compressor similar.
The A/C compressor clutch assembly consists of a stationary electromagnetic field coil (4), bearing
and pulley assembly (3), shims (7) and a clutch plate (2) that is splined to the compressor shaft and
secured by a bolt (1). These components provide the means to engage and disengage the A/C
compressor from the engine accessory drive belt.
The A/C clutch bearing and pulley assembly on both A/C compressors are retained to the front of
the compressor with a snap ring (6). The A/C clutch field coil on the Denso 10S17 A/C compressor
is also retained to the front of the compressor using a snap ring (5). The field coil on the Visteon
HS-18 compressor is pressed onto the front of the compressor.

Compressor Clutch: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The A/C compressor clutch components provide the means to engage and disengage the A/C
compressor from the engine accessory drive belt. When the electromagnetic A/C clutch field coil is
energized, it magnetically draws the clutch plate into contact with the clutch pulley and drives the
compressor shaft. When the coil is not energized, the pulley freewheels on the clutch hub bearing,
which is part of the pulley assembly.
A/C compressor clutch engagement is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM) or the
engine control module (ECM), depending on engine application. When the A/C-heater control is set
to any A/C position, it sends a request signal on the CAN-B bus to the totally integrated power
module (TIPM), which then transfers the request on the CAN-C Bus to the PCM/ECM, which
determines if operating conditions are correct for A/C clutch engagement. When all operating
conditions have been met, the PCM/ECM sends a signal on a dedicated hard-wired circuit back to
the totally integrated power module (TIPM) to energize the internal A/C clutch high side driver.
When energized, the A/C clutch high side driver provides battery current to the A/C clutch field coil.
The A/C clutch control system is diagnosed using a scan tool.
The A/C compressor clutch components cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if
found inoperative or damaged.

Compressor Clutch: Testing and Inspection Diagnosis And Testing
A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH COIL
The A/C compressor clutch coil electrical circuit is controlled by the powertrain control module
(PCM) or the engine control module (ECM) (depending on engine application) through the totally
integrated power module (TIPM). Begin testing of a suspected compressor clutch coil problem by
performing the preliminary checks.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
1. Using a scan tool, check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in the A/C-heater control, TIPM,
PCM/ECM and if equipped with the 8.3L engine,
the gateway module. If no DTCs are found, go to STEP 2. If any DTCs are found, repair as
required.
2. If the A/C compressor clutch still will not engage, verify the refrigerant charge level. If the
refrigerant charge level is OK, go to TESTS. If the
refrigerant charge level is not OK, adjust the refrigerant charge as required.
TESTS
3. Verify the battery state of charge.
4. Connect an ammeter (0 to 10 ampere scale selected) in series with the clutch coil feed terminal.
Connect a voltmeter (0 to 20 volt scale selected)
to measure voltage across the battery and the clutch coil.
5. With the A/C-heater control in the A/C mode and the blower motor at low speed, start the engine
and allow it to run at a normal idle speed.
6. The A/C compressor clutch should engage immediately, and the clutch coil supply voltage
should be within two volts of the battery voltage. If the
coil supply voltage is OK, go to STEP 5. If the coil supply voltage is not within two volts of battery
voltage, test the clutch coil feed circuit for excessive voltage drop and repair as necessary.
7. For the acceptable A/C clutch coil current draw specifications. Specifications apply for a work
area temperature of 21° C (70° F). If voltage is
more than 12.5 volts, add electrical loads by turning on electrical accessories until voltage reads
below 12.5 volts. a. If the A/C clutch coil current reading is zero, the coil is open and must be
replaced. b. If the A/C clutch coil current reading is above specifications, the coil is shorted and
must be replaced.

A/C CLUTCH PLATE INSPECTION
NOTE: The A/C clutch can be serviced in the vehicle. The refrigerant system can remain
fully-charged during compressor clutch, pulley and bearing assembly, or coil replacement.
Examine the friction surfaces of the pulley and the clutch plate (2) for wear. The pulley and clutch
plate should be replaced if there is excessive wear or scoring.
If the friction surfaces are oily, inspect the shaft and nose area of the A/C compressor (1) for
refrigerant oil. If refrigerant oil is found, the compressor shaft seal is leaking and the A/C
compressor must be replaced.
Check the pulley bearing for roughness or excessive leakage of grease. Replace the pulley and
bearing assembly, if required.

Condenser HVAC: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The A/C condenser is located in the front of the engine compartment behind the grille. The A/C
condenser is a heat exchanger that allows the high-pressure refrigerant gas being discharged by
the A/C compressor to give up its heat to the air passing over the condenser fins, which causes the
refrigerant to cool and change to a liquid state.
Dodge Ram 3500 Hd 4wd Workshop Manual (Truck L6-6.7L DSL Turbo VIN A (2007))
Dodge Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Condenser HVAC > Component Information > Description and
Operation > Description > Page 13396
Condenser HVAC: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
When air passes through the fins of the A/C condenser, the high-pressure refrigerant gas within the
A/C condenser gives up its heat. The refrigerant then condenses as it leaves the A/C condenser
and becomes a high-pressure liquid. The volume of air flowing over the condenser fins is critical to
the proper cooling performance of the A/C system. Therefore, it is important that there are no
objects placed in front of the radiator grille openings at the front of the vehicle or foreign material on
the condenser fins that might obstruct proper air flow. Also, any factory-installed air seals or
shrouds must be properly reinstalled following radiator or A/C condenser service.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a
refrigerant line is disconnected. Failure to replace the rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could
result in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C condenser has no serviceable parts except for the O-ring seals and gaskets. The O-ring
seals used on the connections are made from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a
refrigerant. The O-ring seals and gaskets must be replaced whenever a refrigerant line is removed
from the A/C condenser.
The A/C condenser cannot be repaired and must be replaced if leaking 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.
- 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.

Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 13432
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.

Hot/Humid > Page 13475
Some vehicle operators may experience a musty odor from the A/C system, primarily at start up in
hot and humid climates. This odor may be the result of microbial growth on the cooling coil. During
normal A/C system operation, condensation forms in and around the NC cooling coil. When
airborne pollutants mix with this condensation, bacteria and fungi growth begins and odor results.
DIAGNOSIS:
If the operator describes, or the technician experiences a musty odor when operating the A/C
system, perform the appropriate Repair Procedure based on the vehicle model.

The A/C evaporator (1) for the heating-A/C system is located within the HVAC housing, behind the
instrument panel. The A/C evaporator (and insulator (2), when equipped) are positioned in the
HVAC housing so that all air entering the housing must pass over the evaporator fins before it is
distributed through the heating-A/C system ducts and outlets. However, air passing over the
evaporator fins will only be conditioned when the A/C compressor is engaged and circulating
refrigerant through the A/C evaporator.
The A/C evaporator can be serviced by removing and disassembling the HVAC housing assembly.

Evaporator Core: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
Refrigerant enters the A/C evaporator through the A/C orifice tube as a low-temperature,
low-pressure mixture of liquid and gas. As air flows over the fins of the A/C evaporator, the
humidity in the air condenses on the fins, and the heat from the air is absorbed by the refrigerant.
Heat absorption causes the refrigerant to boil and vaporize. The refrigerant becomes a
low-pressure gas when it leaves the A/C evaporator.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a
refrigerant line is opened. Failure to replace the rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result
in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C evaporator has no serviceable parts except for the O-ring seals. The O-ring seals used on
the connections are made from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The
O-ring seals must be replaced whenever a refrigerant line is removed from the A/C evaporator.
The A/C evaporator cannot be repaired and must be replaced if found to be leaking or damaged.

Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Cutaway of HVAC housing shown for clarity.
The evaporator temperature sensor (1) is an electrical thermistor located within a molded plastic
case that is inserted into the top of the HVAC housing (2) to measure the temperature of the
conditioned air downstream of the A/C evaporator (3). Two terminals within the connector
receptacle connect the sensor to the vehicle electrical system through a wire lead and connector of
the HVAC wire harness.
The external location of the evaporator temperature sensor allows the sensor to be removed or
installed without disturbing the refrigerant in the A/C system.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 13501
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.
The evaporator temperature sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if found
inoperative or damaged.

High Pressure Safety Valve HVAC: Description and Operation Operation
HIGH PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The high pressure relief valve vents refrigerant from the A/C system when a discharge pressure of
3445 to 4135 kPa (500 to 600 psi) or above is reached. The high pressure relief valve closes with a
minimum discharge pressure of 2756 kPa (400 psi) is reached.
The high pressure relief valve vents only enough refrigerant to reduce the A/C system pressure,
and then re-seats itself. The majority of the refrigerant is conserved in the A/C system. If the high
pressure relief valve vents refrigerant, it does not mean the valve is inoperative.
The high pressure relief valve is factory-calibrated and cannot be adjusted or repaired, and must
not be removed or otherwise disturbed. The valve is only serviced as a part of the A/C compressor.

Hose/Line HVAC: Service Precautions Warning
WARNING
WARNING: The A/C system contains refrigerant under high pressure. Repairs should only be
performed by qualified service personnel. Serious or fatal injury may result from improper service
procedures.
WARNING: Avoid breathing the refrigerant and refrigerant oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate
the eyes, nose, and/or throat. Wear eye protection when servicing the A/C refrigerant system.
Serious eye injury can result from direct contact with the refrigerant. If eye contact occurs, seek
medical attention immediately.
WARNING: Do not expose the refrigerant to open flame. Poisonous gas is created when refrigerant
is burned. An electronic leak detector is recommended. Serious or fatal injury may result from
improper service procedures.
WARNING: If accidental A/C system discharge occurs, ventilate the work area before resuming
service. Large amounts of refrigerant released in a closed work area will displace the oxygen and
cause suffocation and serious or fatal injury.
WARNING: The evaporation rate of R-134a refrigerant at average temperature and altitude is
extremely high. As a result, anything that comes in contact with the refrigerant will freeze. Always
protect the skin or delicate objects from direct contact with the refrigerant.
WARNING: The R-134a service equipment or the vehicle refrigerant system should not be
pressure tested or leak tested with compressed air. Some mixtures of air and R-134a have been
shown to 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.
WARNING: The engine cooling system is designed to develop internal pressures up to 145 kilo
pascals (21 pounds per square inch). Do not remove or loosen the coolant pressure cap, cylinder
block drain plugs, radiator drain, radiator hoses, heater hoses, or hose clamps while the engine
cooling system is hot and under pressure. Allow the vehicle to cool for a minimum of 15 minutes
before opening the cooling system for service. Failure to observe this warning can result in serious
burns from the heated engine coolant.

Precautions > Warning > Page 13528
Hose/Line HVAC: Service Precautions Caution
CAUTION
CAUTION: Never add R-12 to a refrigerant system designed to use R-134a. Do not use R-12
equipment or parts on an R-134a A/C system. These refrigerants are not compatible and damage
to the A/C system will result.
CAUTION: Never use R-12 refrigerant oil in an A/C system designed to use R-134a refrigerant oil.
These refrigerant oils are not compatible and damage to the A/C system will result.
CAUTION: The use of A/C system sealers may result in damage to A/C refrigerant
recovery/evacuation/recharging equipment and/or A/C system. Many federal, state/provincial and
local regulations prohibit the recharge of A/C systems with known leaks. DaimlerChrysler
recommends the detection of A/C system leaks through the use of approved leak detectors and
fluorescent leak detection dyes. Vehicles found with A/C system sealers should be treated as
contaminated and replacement of the entire A/C refrigerant system is recommended. A/C systems
found to be contaminated with A/C system sealers, A/C stop-leak products or seal conditioners
voids the warranty for the A/C system.
CAUTION: Recover the refrigerant before opening any fitting or connection. Open the fittings with
caution, even after the system has been discharged. Never open or loosen a connection before
recovering the refrigerant.
CAUTION: If equipped, do not remove the secondary retention clip from any spring-lock coupler
connection while the refrigerant system is under pressure. Recover the refrigerant before removing
the secondary retention clip. Open the fittings with caution, even after the system has been
discharged. Never open or loosen a connection before recovering the refrigerant.
CAUTION: The internal parts of the A/C system will remain stable as long as moisture-free
refrigerant and refrigerant oil is used. Abnormal amounts of dirt, moisture or air can upset the
chemical stability. This may cause operational troubles or even serious damage if present in more
than very small quantities. Before disconnecting a component, clean the outside of the fittings
thoroughly to prevent contamination from entering the refrigerant system. Keep service tools and
the work area clean. Do not open the refrigerant system or uncap a replacement component until
you are ready to service the system. Immediately after disconnecting a component from the
refrigerant system, seal the open fittings with a cap or plug. This will prevent contamination from
entering the A/C system.
CAUTION: Refrigerant oil will absorb moisture from the atmosphere if left uncapped. Do not open a
container of refrigerant oil until you are ready to use it. Replace the cap on the oil container
immediately after using. Store refrigerant oil only in a clean, airtight, and moisture-free container.
CAUTION: Do not overcharge the refrigerant system. Overcharging will cause excessive
compressor head pressure and can cause compressor noise and A/C system failure.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The A/C refrigerant lines and hoses are used to carry the refrigerant between the various A/C
system components. The refrigerant lines and hoses for the R-134a A/C system consist of a
barrier-hose design with a nylon tube sandwiched between rubber layers. The nylon tube helps to
contain the R-134a refrigerant, which has a small molecular structure. The ends of the refrigerant
lines are made from lightweight aluminum and braze-less fittings.
Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant lines and hoses will reduce the capacity of the entire
A/C system and can reduce the flow of refrigerant within the system.
Operation
OPERATION
High pressures are produced in the refrigerant system when the A/C compressor is operating.
Extreme care must be exercised to make sure that each of the refrigerant system connections is
pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good practice to inspect all flexible refrigerant hoses at least
once a year to make sure they are in good condition.
The refrigerant lines and hoses are coupled to other A/C system components with block-type
fittings. An O-ring seal, or a flat steel gasket with an integral O-ring (dual plane seal), is used to
mate the refrigerant line fittings with A/C system components to ensure the integrity of the
refrigerant system.
The refrigerant lines and hoses cannot be repaired and must be replaced if leaking or damaged.

Description and Operation
Housing Assembly HVAC: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
All models are equipped with a common HVAC housing assembly that combines A/C and heating
capabilities into a single unit mounted within the passenger compartment. The HVAC housing
assembly consists of the following:
- HVAC housing - The HVAC housing consists of an upper housing (7) and a lower housing (10)
that are attached together by screws and is mounted to the dash panel behind the instrument
panel. The HVAC housing contains the heater core (9), A/C evaporator (15), blend-air and modeair doors, and has mounting provisions for the air-door actuators (3, 5, 6 and 8), floor distribution
duct (4), blower motor (13), blower motor resistor, foam seals (12, 14 and 16) and the HVAC wire
harness (11).
- Air inlet housing - The air inlet housing (1) is mounted to the right end of the HVAC housing and
contains the recirculation-air door and has mounting provisions for the recirculation door actuator
(2).
The heating-A/C system is a blend-air type system. The blend-air doors control the amount of
conditioned air that is allowed to flow through, or around, the heater core. The dual zone heating
A/C system uses two blend door actuators while the single zone system uses only one blend door
actuator.
The A/C system is designed for the use of a non-CFC, R-134a refrigerant and uses an A/C
evaporator to cool and dehumidify the incoming air prior to blending it with the heated air. A
temperature control determines the discharge air temperature by operating the blend door
actuator(s), which moves the blend-air door(s). This allows an almost immediate control of the
output air temperature of the system. The mode door actuator operates the mode-air doors which
direct the flow of the conditioned air out the various air outlets, depending on the mode selected.
The recirculation door actuator operates the recirculation-air door which closes off the fresh air
intake and recirculates the air already inside the vehicle. The electric door actuators are connected
to the vehicle electrical system by the HVAC wire harness. The blower motor controls the velocity
of air flowing through the HVAC housing assembly by spinning the blower wheel within the HVAC
housings at the selected speed by use of the blower motor resistor.
The HVAC housing must be removed from the vehicle and disassembled for service of the heater
core, A/C evaporator, evaporator temperature sensor, blend-air and mode-air doors. The air inlet
housing must be removed from HVAC housing and disassembled for service of the recirculation-air
door.

Refrigerant: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
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.
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.

Operation > Description > Page 13576
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). 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). 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 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.

REFRIGERANT SYSTEM RECOVERY
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and cautions for this system before performing the
following operation. 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. Refer to the operating
instructions supplied by the equipment manufacturer for the proper care and use of this equipment.

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.
2. Connect a suitable charging station, refrigerant recovery machine or a manifold gauge set with
vacuum pump and refrigerant recovery 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.

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.

Refrigerant Oil: Service and Repair
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. Refer to the
reclaim/recycling equipment manufacturers instructions.
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.
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.

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.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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.

Ambient Temperature Sensor / Switch HVAC: 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) or
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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) or Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) 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 kilohms. At 55° C (130° F), the sensor
resistance is 2.488 kilohms. The sensor resistance should read between these two values. If OK,
perform further diagnosis of the Compass Mini - Trip Computer (CMTC) or Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) as applicable. If not OK, replace the inoperative ambient temperature
sensor.

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.
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.

Service Port HVAC: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
Two refrigerant system service ports are used to recover/recycle/evacuate/charge and test the A/C
refrigerant system. Unique sizes are used on the service ports for the R-134a refrigerant system to
ensure the system is not accidentally contaminated with R-12 refrigerant or service equipment
used for R-12 refrigerant.
The high side service port is located on the A/C discharge line. The A/C pressure transducer is
mounted on the high side service port. The low side service port is located either on the top of the
A/C accumulator or on the A/C suction line near the accumulator, depending on engine application.
Both the high side and low side A/C service port valve cores are serviceable.
Each of the service ports has a threaded plastic protective cap installed over it from the factory.
After servicing the refrigerant system, always reinstall both of the service port caps.

Repairs and Inspections Required After a Collision: Service and Repair
SERVICE AFTER A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT DEPLOYMENT
Any vehicle which is to be returned to use following a supplemental restraint deployment, must
have the deployed restraints replaced. In addition, if the driver airbag has been deployed, the
clockspring must be replaced. If the passenger airbag is deployed, the passenger airbag door must
be replaced. The seat belt tensioners are deployed by the same signal that deploys the driver and
passenger airbags and must also be replaced if either front airbag has been deployed. If a side
curtain airbag has been deployed, the complete airbag unit, the headliner, as well as the upper A,
B, and C-pillar trim must be replaced. These components are not intended for reuse and will be
damaged or weakened as a result of a supplemental restraint deployment, which may or may not
be obvious during a visual inspection.
On vehicles with an optional sunroof, the sunroof drain tubes and hoses must be closely inspected
following a side curtain airbag deployment. It is also critical that the mounting surfaces and
mounting brackets for the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), side impact sensors, and front
impact sensors be closely inspected and restored to their original conditions following any vehicle
impact damage. Because the ORC and each front and side impact sensor are used by the
supplemental restraint system to monitor or confirm the direction and severity of a vehicle impact,
improper orientation or insecure fastening of these components may cause airbags not to deploy
when required, or to deploy when not required.
All other vehicle components should be closely inspected following any supplemental restraint
deployment, but are to be replaced only as required by the extent of the visible damage incurred.
AIRBAG SQUIB STATUS
Multistage airbags with multiple initiators (squibs) must be checked to determine that all squibs
were used during the deployment event. The driver and passenger airbags in this vehicle are
deployed by electrical signals generated by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) through the
driver or passenger squib 1 and squib 2 circuits to the two initiators in the airbag inflators. Typically,
both initiators are used and all potentially hazardous chemicals are burned during an airbag
deployment event. However, it is possible for only one initiator to be used due to an airbag system
fault; therefore, it is always necessary to confirm that both initiators have been used in order to
avoid the improper handling or disposal of potentially live pyrotechnic or hazardous materials. The
following procedure should be performed using a diagnostic scan tool to verify the status of both
airbag squibs before either deployed airbag is removed from the vehicle for disposal.
CAUTION: Deployed front airbags having two initiators (squibs) in the airbag inflator may or may
not have live pyrotechnic material within the inflator. Do not dispose of these airbags unless you
are certain of complete deployment. Refer to the Hazardous Substance Control System for proper
disposal procedures. Dispose of all non-deployed and deployed airbags and seat belt tensioners in
a manner consistent with state, provincial, local, and federal regulations.
1. Be certain that the diagnostic scan tool contains the latest version of the proper diagnostic
software. Connect the scan tool to the 16-way Data Link
Connector (DLC). The DLC is located on the driver side lower edge of the instrument panel,
outboard of the steering column.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Using the scan tool, read and record the active (current) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) data.
Using the active DTC information, refer to the Airbag Squib Status table to determine the status of
both driver and passenger airbag squibs.

Dodge Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Repairs and Inspections Required After a Collision > System Information
> Service and Repair > Page 13702
NOTE: If none of the Driver or Passenger Squib 1 or 2 open are active codes, the status of the
airbag squibs is unknown. In this case the airbag should be handled and disposed of as if the
squibs were both live.
CLEANUP PROCEDURE
Following a supplemental restraint deployment, the vehicle interior will contain a powdery residue.
This residue consists primarily of harmless particulate by-products of the small pyrotechnic charge
that initiates the propellant used to deploy a supplemental restraint. However, this residue may also
contain traces of sodium hydroxide powder, a chemical by-product of the propellant material that is
used to generate the inert gas that inflates the airbag. Since sodium hydroxide powder can irritate
the skin, eyes, nose, or throat, be certain to wear safety glasses, rubber gloves, and a long-sleeved
shirt during cleanup.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, if you experience skin irritation during cleanup, run cool
water over the affected area. Also, if you experience irritation of the nose or throat, exit the vehicle
for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation continues, see a physician.

1. Begin the cleanup by using a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual powder from the vehicle
interior. Clean from outside the vehicle and work
your way inside, so that you avoid kneeling or sitting on a non-cleaned area.
2. Be certain to vacuum the heater and air conditioning outlets as well. Run the heater and air
conditioner blower on the lowest speed setting and
vacuum any powder expelled from the outlets.
CAUTION: Deployed front airbags having two initiators (squibs) in the airbag inflator may or may
not have live pyrotechnic material within the inflator. Do not dispose of these airbags unless you
are certain of complete deployment. Refer to AIRBAG SQUIB STATUS. All damaged, ineffective,
or non-deployed supplemental restraints which are replaced on vehicles are to be handled and
disposed of properly. If an airbag or seat belt tensioner unit is ineffective or damaged and
non-deployed, refer to the Hazardous Substance Control System for proper disposal. Be certain to
dispose of all non-deployed and deployed supplemental restraints in a manner consistent with
state, provincial, local and federal regulations.
3. Next, remove the deployed supplemental restraints from the vehicle.
4. You may need to vacuum the interior of the vehicle a second time to recover all of the powder.

Description
DESCRIPTION
Optional side curtain airbags are available for this vehicle when it is also equipped with dual front
airbags. These airbags are passive, inflatable, Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components,
and vehicles with this equipment can be readily identified by a molded identification trim button with
the SRS - AIRBAG logo located on the headliner above each A-pillar (standard cab), or above
each B-pillar (quad cab and mega cab). This system is designed to reduce injuries to the vehicle
occupants in the event of a side impact collision.
Vehicles equipped with side curtain airbags have two individually controlled curtain airbag units.
These airbag units are concealed and mounted above the headliner where they are each secured
to one of the roof side rails (5). Each folded airbag cushion is contained within a fabric wrap (8) that
extends along the roof rail from the A-pillar (6) at the front of the vehicle to the pillar at the rear of
the vehicle. The channel is initially secured during installation with plastic push-in fasteners to the
roof rail.
A long tether (7) extends down the A-pillar from the front of the airbag cushion, where it is retained
to the pillar with plastic push-in routing clips and it is secured to the base of the A-pillar near the
belt line with a screw. Mega cab vehicles also have a rear tether that is retained with plastic push-in
routing clips and secured to the C-pillar near the back of the cab with a screw.
The hybrid-type inflator (3) for each airbag is secured to the roof rail at the rear of the airbag unit
behind the B-pillar (standard cab) or C-pillar (quad cab and mega cab), and is connected to the
airbag cushion by a long tubular manifold (4). The entire assembly is secured to several spring nuts
spaced along the inside of the roof rail with screws.
A two-wire take out and connector of the body wire harness with a keyed and latched connector
insulator (1) on the B-pillar (standard cab) or C-pillar (quad cab and mega cab) is connected
directly to the connector receptacle of the initiator near the back of the airbag inflator. The body
wire harness connects each curtain airbag unit to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
The side curtain airbag unit cannot be adjusted or repaired and must be replaced if deployed,
ineffective, or in any way damaged. Once a side curtain airbag has been deployed, the complete
airbag unit, the headliner, the upper A, B, and C-pillar trim, and all other visibly damaged
components must be replaced.

OPERATION
Each side curtain airbag is deployed individually by an electrical signal generated by the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) to which it is connected through left or right curtain airbag line 1 and line
2 (or squib) circuits. The hybrid-type inflator assembly for each airbag contains a small canister of
highly compressed inert gas. When the ORC sends the proper electrical signal to the airbag
inflator, the electrical energy creates enough heat to ignite chemical pellets within the inflator.
Once ignited, these chemicals burn rapidly and produce the pressure necessary to rupture a
containment disk in the inert gas canister. The inflator and inert gas canister are sealed and
connected to a tubular manifold so that all of the released gas is directed into the folded curtain
airbag cushion, causing the cushion to inflate. As the airbag cushion inflates it will drop down from
the roof rail between the edge of the headliner and the side glass/body pillars to form a curtain-like
cushion to protect the vehicle occupants during a side impact collision.
The front tethers keep the front portion of the side airbag cushion taut to the side, as does the rear
tether for the rear portion of the cushion on mega cab vehicles, thus ensuring that the bag will
deploy in the proper position. Following the airbag deployment, the airbag cushion quickly deflates
by venting the inert gas through the loose weave of the cushion fabric, and the deflated cushion
hangs down loosely from the roof rail.
Proper diagnosis of the side curtain airbag inflator and the curtain airbag squib circuits requires the
use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Description
DESCRIPTION
The color-keyed, injection molded, thermoplastic driver airbag protective trim cover (2) is the most
visible part of the driver airbag. The driver airbag is located in the center of the steering wheel (1),
where it is secured with two screws to the armature of the four-spoke steering wheel. All vehicles
have a chrome Dodge Ram emblem in the center of the trim cover. Concealed beneath the driver
airbag trim cover are the horn switch, the folded airbag cushion, the airbag cushion retainer, the
airbag housing, the airbag inflator, and the retainers that secure the inflator to the airbag housing.
The airbag cushion, housing (5), and inflator (3) are secured within an integral receptacle molded
into the back of the trim cover (4). The four vertical walls of this receptacle have a total of 12 small
windows with blocking tabs that are engaged by 12 hook formations around the perimeter of the
airbag housing. Each hook is inserted through one of the windows and the blocking tab in each
window keeps the hook properly engaged with the trim cover, locking the trim cover securely into
place on the airbag housing.
The resistive membrane-type horn switch is secured with heat stakes to the inside surface of the
driver airbag trim cover, between the trim cover and the folded airbag cushion. The horn switch
ground pigtail wire has an eyelet terminal connector that is captured beneath a flanged nut on the
upper right inflator mounting stud on the back of the housing. The horn switch feed pigtail wire has
a black, molded plastic insulator (1) that is secured by an integral retainer in a locator hole near the
upper right corner of the airbag housing and is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a
dedicated take out and connector of the steering wheel wire harness. Both horn switch wires are
routed through an integral notch in the center of the upper edge of the airbag housing stamping.
The airbag used in this vehicle is a multistage, Next Generation-type that complies with revised
federal airbag standards to deploy with less force than those used in some prior vehicles. A 71
centimeter (28 inch) diameter, radial deploying fabric cushion with internal tethers is used. The
airbag inflator is a dual-initiator, non-azide, pyrotechnic-type unit with four mounting studs and is
secured to the stamped metal airbag housing by four flanged hex nuts. Two keyed and color-coded
connector receptacles on the driver airbag inflator connect the two inflator initiators to the vehicle
electrical system through two yellow-jacketed, two-wire pigtail harnesses of the clockspring.

The driver airbag unit cannot be repaired, and must be replaced if deployed, ineffective or in any
way damaged. The driver airbag trim cover and horn switch unit may be disassembled from the
driver airbag unit, and is available for separate service replacement.
Operation
OPERATION
The multistage driver airbag is deployed by electrical signals generated by the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) through the driver airbag squib 1 and squib 2 circuits to the two initiators in the
airbag inflator. By using two initiators, the airbag can be deployed at multiple levels of force. The
force level is controlled by the ORC to suit the monitored impact conditions by providing one of
three delay intervals between the electrical signals provided to the two initiators. The longer the
delay between these signals, the less forcefully the airbag will deploy.
When the ORC sends the proper electrical signals to each initiator, the electrical energy generates
enough heat to initiate a small pyrotechnic charge which, in turn ignites chemical pellets within the
inflator. Once ignited, these chemical pellets burn rapidly and produce a large quantity of inert gas.
The inflator is sealed to the back of the airbag housing and a diffuser in the inflator directs all of the
inert gas into the airbag cushion, causing the cushion to inflate. As the cushion inflates, the driver
airbag trim cover will split at predetermined breakout lines, then fold back out of the way along with
the horn switch unit. Following an airbag deployment, the airbag cushion quickly deflates by
venting the inert gas towards the instrument panel through vent holes within the fabric used to
construct the back (steering wheel side) panel of the airbag cushion.
Some of the chemicals used to create the inert gas may be considered hazardous while in their
solid state before they are burned, but they are securely sealed within the airbag inflator. Typically,
both initiators are used and all potentially hazardous chemicals are burned during an airbag
deployment event. However, it is possible for only one initiator to be used during a deployment due
to an airbag system fault; therefore, it is necessary to always confirm that both initiators have been
used in order to avoid the improper disposal of potentially live pyrotechnic or hazardous materials.
The inert gas that is produced when the chemicals are burned is harmless. However, a small
amount of residue from the burned chemicals may cause some temporary discomfort if it contacts
the skin, eyes, or breathing passages. If skin or eye irritation is noted, rinse the affected area with
plenty of cool, clean water. If breathing passages are irritated, move to another area where there is
plenty of clean, fresh air to breath. If the irritation is not alleviated by these actions, contact a
physician.
Proper diagnosis of the driver airbag inflator and squib circuits requires the use of a diagnostic
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

DESCRIPTION
The horizontal surface of the injection molded, thermoplastic passenger airbag door (1) is the most
visible part of the passenger airbag. The passenger airbag door is located above the glove box
opening on the top of the instrument panel (2) in front of the front seat passenger seating position.
The forward and outboard edges of the airbag door are secured with integral snap features (3) to
the instrument panel base trim, while the rearward edge has several interlocking tabs that engage
slots in the base trim. Located below the passenger airbag door (2) within the instrument panel is
the passenger airbag unit. The passenger airbag unit is secured by two screws through a stamped
mounting bracket (5) to a support bracket welded onto the instrument panel structural support.
The passenger airbag housing fits into a molded receptacle on the back of the airbag door, where
several stamped hook formations on the forward and rearward edges of the airbag housing are
engaged in mating small window openings on the forward and rearward flanges of the receptacle to
secure the airbag door to the airbag housing. These airbag door fasteners and mounting provisions
are all concealed beneath the instrument panel base trim.
The passenger airbag unit used in this vehicle is a multistage, Next Generation-type that complies
with revised federal airbag standards to deploy with less force than those used in some prior
vehicles. The passenger airbag unit consists of a stamped and welded metal housing, the airbag
cushion, the airbag inflator, and a stamped metal airbag cushion retainer plate that is secured to
the airbag housing with four studs and nuts. The airbag housing contains the airbag inflator and the
folded airbag cushion. An approximately 80 centimeter (31.5 inch) wide by 90 centimeter (35.5
inch) high rectangular fabric cushion is used.
The airbag inflator (4) is a non-azide, pyrotechnic-type unit that is secured to and sealed within the
airbag housing. A short four-wire pigtail harness with a keyed, yellow connector insulator (1)
connects the two inflator initiators to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and
connector of the instrument panel wire harness.

DISASSEMBLY
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, service of this unit should be performed only by
DaimlerChrysler-trained and authorized dealer service technicians. Failure to take the proper
precautions or to follow the proper procedures could result in accidental, incomplete, or improper
airbag deployment and possible occupant injuries.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, use extreme care to prevent any foreign material from
entering the driver airbag, or becoming entrapped between the driver airbag cushion and the driver
airbag trim cover. Failure to observe this warning could result in occupant injuries upon airbag
deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, the driver airbag trim cover must never be painted.
Replacement trim covers are serviced in the original colors. Paint may change the way in which the
material of the trim cover responds to an airbag deployment. Failure to observe this warning could
result in occupant injuries upon airbag deployment.
NOTE: The following procedures can be used to replace the driver airbag trim cover and horn
switch unit for service. If the driver airbag is ineffective or deployed, the entire driver airbag, trim
cover and horn switch must be replaced as a unit.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before further service.
2. Remove the driver airbag from the steering wheel.
3. Place the driver airbag on a suitable clean and dry work surface with the trim cover facing down.
If the trim cover will be reused, be certain to take
the proper precautions to prevent the trim cover from receiving cosmetic damage during the
following procedures.
4. Carefully pry the horn switch feed pigtail wire connector (1) away from the back of the driver
airbag housing (3) far enough to disengage the
integral connector retainer from the locator hole just above the upper right inflator mounting stud.
5. Remove the nut that secures the horn switch ground pigtail wire eyelet terminal (2) to the upper
right inflator stud on the back of the driver airbag
housing.
6. Remove the horn switch ground pigtail wire eyelet terminal from the upper right inflator stud on
the back of the driver airbag housing.
7. Disengage each of the 12 hooks (5 and 6) of the airbag housing from the 12 windows in the
vertical walls of the trim cover (4), one wall at a time.

Air Bag Control Module: 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 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.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains the supplemental
restraint system logic circuits and controls all of the supplemental restraint system 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 supplemental restraint system diagnosis and testing through the 16-way Data Link
Connector (DLC) located on the driver side lower edge of the instrument panel.
The ORC microprocessor continuously monitors all of the supplemental restraint system 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, 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 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 supplemental restraint components for up to one second following a battery disconnect or
failure. The purpose of the capacitor is to provide backup supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint 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 supplemental restraint system 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, the front seat
belt tensioners and, if the vehicle is so equipped, either side curtain airbag unit. On standard cab
vehicles, the passenger front airbag and seat belt tensioner 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 supplemental
restraint system. 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.

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 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. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for specific recommendations on
when to enable or disable the passenger airbag. 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.

Air Bag Deactivation Switch: Service and Repair Removal
REMOVAL
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. 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 equipped with dual
front airbags. Quad cab and mega 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.
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.

Clockspring Assembly / Spiral Cable: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The clockspring assembly is located near the top of the steering column behind the steering wheel.
Two mounting tabs (6) with round holes integral to the sides of the case are secured by two screws
onto the multi-function switch mounting housing. For vehicles equipped with the Electronic Stability
Program (ESP) the clockspring also includes an integral, internal Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) that
is serviced as a unit with the clockspring.
The clockspring consists of a flat, round molded plastic case (4) with a stubby tail that hangs below
the steering column. Within the plastic case is a spool-like molded plastic rotor with a large
exposed hub. The upper surface of the rotor hub has a large center hole, an engagement dowel
(5), two short pigtail wires with connectors (1), and two connector receptacles (3) that face toward
the steering wheel.
Service replacement clocksprings are shipped pre-centered and with a molded plastic locking pin
(2) that snaps into a receptacle on the rotor and is engaged with tabs on the upper surface of the
clockspring case. The locking pin secures the centered clockspring rotor to the clockspring case
during shipment and handling, but must be removed from the clockspring after it is installed on the
steering column.
The lower surface of the case (1) facing toward the instrument panel includes a locating tab (2) that
is engaged by a locating pin on the multi-function switch mounting housing, two integral connector
receptacles (5) and, on clocksprings with a SAS, an additional applied connector (4) with a short
pigtail wire on the lower end, outboard of the two integral connector receptacles. The lower surface
of the rotor hub also has a molded plastic turn signal cancel cam with two lobes (3) that is integral
to the rotor.
Within the plastic case and wound around the rotor spool is a long ribbon-like tape that consists of
several thin copper wire leads sandwiched between two thin plastic membranes. The outer end of
the tape terminates at the connector receptacles that face the instrument panel, while the inner end
of the tape terminates at the pigtail wires and connector receptacles on the hub of the clockspring
rotor that face the steering wheel.
The clockspring cannot be repaired. If damaged, ineffective or if the driver airbag has been
deployed, the clockspring must be replaced.

Clockspring Assembly / Spiral Cable: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The clockspring is a mechanical electrical circuit component that is used to provide continuous
electrical continuity between the fixed instrument panel wire harness and the electrical components
mounted on or in the rotating steering wheel. On this vehicle the rotating electrical components
include the driver airbag, the horn switch, the speed control switches, and the remote radio
switches, if the vehicle is so equipped. The clockspring case is positioned and secured to the
multi-function switch mounting housing near the top of the steering column. The connector
receptacles on the tail of the fixed clockspring case connect the clockspring to the vehicle electrical
system through two take outs with connectors from the instrument panel wire harness.
The clockspring rotor is movable and is keyed by an engagement dowel that is molded onto the
rotor hub between two fins that are cast into the lower surface of the steering wheel armature. A
yellow rubber boot is installed over the engagement dowel to eliminate contact noise between the
dowel and the steering wheel. The two lobes on the turn signal cancel cam on the lower surface of
the clockspring rotor hub contact a turn signal cancel actuator of the multi-function switch to
provide automatic turn signal cancellation.
Two short, yellow-sleeved pigtail wires on the upper surface of the clockspring rotor connect the
clockspring to the multistage driver airbag, while a steering wheel wire harness connects the two
connector receptacles on the upper surface of the clockspring rotor to the horn switch feed pigtail
wire connector and, if the vehicle is so equipped, to the optional speed control and remote radio
switches on the steering wheel.
Like the clockspring in a timepiece, the clockspring tape has travel limits and can be damaged by
being wound too tightly during full stop-to-stop steering wheel rotation. To prevent this from
occurring, the clockspring is centered when it is installed on the steering column. Centering the
clockspring indexes the clockspring tape to the movable steering components so that the tape can
operate within its designed travel limits. However, if the clockspring is removed from the steering
column or if the steering shaft is disconnected from the steering gear, the clockspring spool can
change position relative to the movable steering components. The clockspring must be re-centered
following completion of this service or the tape may be damaged.
Service replacement clocksprings are shipped pre-centered and with a plastic locking pin installed.
This locking pin should not be removed until the clockspring has been installed on the steering
column. If the locking pin is removed before the clockspring is installed on a steering column, the
clockspring centering procedure must be performed.
The clockspring as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the clockspring may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
However, on vehicles equipped with Electronic Stability Program (ESP) conventional diagnostic
methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) within the
clockspring or the electronic controls or communication between other modules and devices that
provide features of the ESP. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the SAS
or the electronic controls and communication related to ESP operation requires the use of a
diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

2. Remove the clockspring from the steering column.
3. Rotate the clockspring rotor (7) clockwise to the end of its travel. Do not apply excessive torque.
4. From the end of the clockwise travel, rotate the rotor about two and one-half turns
counterclockwise. The engagement dowel (5) should end up at
the bottom, and the airbag pigtail wires (1) and connector receptacles (3) should be at the top. Turn
the rotor slightly clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary so that the slots for the clockspring
locking pin (2) are in alignment.
5. The clockspring is now centered. Secure the clockspring rotor to the clockspring case to
maintain clockspring centering until it is reinstalled on the
steering column.
6. The front wheels should still be in the straight-ahead position. Reinstall the clockspring onto the

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

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. 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

Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The seat track position sensor (2) is a Hall Effect-type sensor used on some vehicles. This sensor
consists of a Hall Effect Integrated Circuit (IC) chip encased in potting material within a cavity of the
molded plastic sensor housing.
The sensor housing has a mounting slot containing an integral latch feature (1) and slides and
latches onto a stamped metal blade-type bracket located on the inboard side of the upper inboard
seat adjuster track near the rear of the driver side front seat. A molded connector receptacle (3)
integral to the sensor housing is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
and take out of the driver seat wire harness beneath the front seat cushion frame.
The seat track position sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the
entire sensor must be replaced.

Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The seat track position sensor is designed to provide a seat position data input to the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) indicating whether the driver side front seat is in a full forward or a not
full forward position. The ORC uses this data as an additional logic input for use in determining the
appropriate deployment force to be used when deploying the multistage driver side front airbag.
The seat track position sensor receives a nominal five volt supply from the ORC. The sensor
communicates the seat position by modulating the voltage returned to the ORC on a sensor data
circuit. The ORC also monitors the condition of the sensor circuits and will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that is detected, and sends messages over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) data bus to illuminate the airbag indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
The hard wired circuits between the seat track position sensor 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 seat
track position sensor or the electronic controls and communication between other modules and
devices that provide features of the supplemental restraint system. The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the seat track position sensor or the electronic controls and
communication related to seat track position sensor operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Malfunction Lamp / Indicator: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
An airbag indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, the instrument
cluster can be programmed to disable this indicator on vehicles that are not equipped with the
airbag system, which is not available in some markets. This indicator is located near the upper
edge of the instrument cluster, between the tachometer and the speedometer.
The airbag indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol
icon for Airbag 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 airbag indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Malfunction Lamp / Indicator: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The airbag indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the airbag system, or a circuit
or component of the system is ineffective. The airbag 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 Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus.
The airbag 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 airbag indicator for the following reasons:
- Bulb Test - Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the airbag indicator is
illuminated for about six to eight seconds. The entire bulb test is a function of the ORC.
- Airbag Indicator Lamp-On Message - Each time the cluster receives an electronic airbag indicator
lamp-ON message from the ORC, the airbag indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated for about twelve seconds or until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the
ORC, whichever is longer. This indicator will also 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 ORC
for 10 consecutive message cycles, the airbag indicator is illuminated. The indicator remains
illuminated until the cluster receives a single lamp-OFF message from the ORC.
- Actuator Test - Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the airbag 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 airbag indicator is a
function of the instrument cluster.
The ORC continually monitors the airbag system circuits and sensors to decide whether the system
is in good operating condition. The ORC then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to
the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC). If the ORC sends a lamp-ON message after the
bulb test, it indicates that the ORC has detected a system malfunction or that the airbags and seat
belt tensioners may not deploy when required, or may deploy when not required. The ORC will
store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any malfunction it detects. Each time the airbag
indicator fails to illuminate due to an open or short in the cluster airbag indicator circuit, the cluster
sends a message notifying the ORC of the condition, the instrument cluster and the ORC will each
store a DTC, and the cluster will flash the seatbelt indicator ON and OFF as a backup to notify the
vehicle operator.
For proper diagnosis of the airbag system, the ORC, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic
communication related to airbag indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

Air Bag Control Module: 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 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.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) contains the supplemental
restraint system logic circuits and controls all of the supplemental restraint system 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 supplemental restraint system diagnosis and testing through the 16-way Data Link
Connector (DLC) located on the driver side lower edge of the instrument panel.
The ORC microprocessor continuously monitors all of the supplemental restraint system 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, 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 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 supplemental restraint components for up to one second following a battery disconnect or
failure. The purpose of the capacitor is to provide backup supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint 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 supplemental restraint system 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, the front seat
belt tensioners and, if the vehicle is so equipped, either side curtain airbag unit. On standard cab
vehicles, the passenger front airbag and seat belt tensioner 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 supplemental
restraint system. 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.

Child Seat Tether Attachment: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
This vehicle is equipped with a Lower Anchors and Tether for Children, or LATCH child restraint
anchorage system. The LATCH system provides for the installation of suitable child restraints in
certain seating positions without using the standard equipment seat belt provided for that seating
position.
Standard cab vehicles are equipped with a fixed-position child restraint upper tether anchor for the
front center and outboard seating positions (2), and child restraint lower anchors for the front
outboard seating position (1).
Quad cab vehicles are equipped with a fixed-position child restraint upper tether anchor strap for
the rear center and both rear outboard seating positions (2), and child restraint lower anchors for
both rear outboard seating positions (1). All front seat child restraint anchors are deleted on quad
cabs.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 13943
Mega cab vehicles are also equipped with a fixed-position child restraint upper tether anchor strap
for the rear center and both rear outboard seating positions (2), but have child restraint lower
anchors for all three rear seating positions (1). As on quad cabs, all front seat child restraint
anchors are deleted on mega cab vehicles.
The two upper tether anchors (3) for standard cabs are integral to the upper cab back panel
reinforcement and are concealed behind individual trim cover and bezel units (1) that are integral to
the cab back trim panel (2). These upper tether anchors cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced as a unit with the upper cab back panel
reinforcement. The upper tether anchor trim covers and bezels are serviced as a unit with the cab
back trim panel.
The three upper tether anchor straps (1) for quad cab and mega cab vehicles are secured to the
upper cab back panel (2) reinforcement with screws (3). These anchor straps are concealed behind
the upright rear seat back. The upper tether anchor straps are available for individual service
replacement.

The lower anchors (2) for all vehicles are integral to their respective front or rear seat cushion
frame. Round markers (3) with an imprinted child seat icon on the standard cab front seat back trim
cover helps identify the anchor locations for that application because they may be otherwise
difficult to see with the seat back in the upright position. These lower anchors are each constructed
from round steel bar stock that is formed into a U-shape, then securely welded at each end to the
seat cushion frame. They are each accessed from the front of their respective seats, at each side
where the seat back meets the seat cushion. These lower anchors cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced as a unit with the seat cushion frame.
On quad cab or mega cab vehicles, if the rear seat lower anchors (2) have been bent or broken as
a result of a vehicle collision, the latch for the affected rear seat cushion frame unit must also be
replaced.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury during and following any seat belt or child restraint
anchor service, carefully inspect all seat belts, buckles, mounting hardware, retractors, tether
straps, and anchors for proper installation, operation, or damage. Replace any belt that is cut,
frayed, or torn. Straighten any belt that is twisted. Tighten any loose fasteners. Replace any belt
that has a damaged or ineffective buckle or retractor. Replace any belt that has a bent or damaged
latch plate or anchor plate. Replace any child restraint anchor or the unit to which the anchor is
integral that has been bent or damaged. Never attempt to repair a seat belt or child restraint
component. Always replace damaged or ineffective seat belt and child restraint components with

Seat Belt: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The seat belt retractors used in all seating positions include an inertia-type, emergency locking
mechanism (7) as standard equipment. However, the retractor locking mechanisms for all seating
positions except the driver side front position are mechanically switchable from an emergency
locking retractor to an automatic locking retractor. The primary function of this feature is to securely
accommodate a child seat in any seating position of the vehicle without the need for a self-cinching
seat belt tip half latch plate unit or another supplemental device that would be required to prevent
the seat belt webbing from unwinding freely from the retractor spool of an inertia-type emergency
locking retractor mechanism.
The automatic locking mechanism is integral to the seat belt and retractor unit and is concealed
beneath a molded plastic cover located on one side of the retractor spool. The automatic locking
mechanism cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire passenger
side front seat belt and retractor unit must be replaced.

Seat Belt: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The locked mode of the automatic locking retractor is engaged and the retractor is switched from
operating as a standard inertia-type emergency locking retractor by first buckling the combination
lap and shoulder belt buckle. Then grasp the shoulder belt and pull all of the webbing out of the
retractor. Once all of the belt webbing is extracted from the spool, the retractor will automatically
become engaged in the pre-locked automatic locking mode and will make a light, audible clicking
or ratcheting sound as the shoulder belt is allowed to retract to confirm that the automatic locking
mode is now engaged. Once the automatic locking mode is engaged, the retractor will remain
locked and the belt will remain tight around whatever it is restraining.
The retractor is returned to standard emergency locking (inertia) mode by unbuckling the
combination lap and shoulder belt buckle and allowing the belt webbing to be almost fully retracted
onto the retractor spool. The emergency locking mode is confirmed by the absence of the light,
audible clicking or ratcheting sound as the belt webbing retracts. This mode will allow the belt to
unwind from and wind onto the retractor spool freely unless and until a predetermined inertia load
is sensed, or until the retractor is again switched to the automatic locking mode.

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.

Seat Belt Reminder Lamp: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
A seatbelt indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The seatbelt indicator is
located near the upper edge of the instrument cluster, between the tachometer and the
speedometer.
The seatbelt indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display
Symbol icon for Seat Belt 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 seatbelt indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.

Seat Belt Reminder Lamp: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The seatbelt indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator of the status of the driver side front
seatbelt. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based
upon cluster programming and a hard wired input from the seatbelt switch in the driver side front
seatbelt buckle through the seat belt indicator driver circuit.
The seatbelt indicator also includes a programmable enhanced seatbelt reminder or BELTMINDER
feature that is enabled when the vehicle is shipped from the factory. This BELTMINDER feature
can be disabled and enabled by the customer using a specific programming event sequence, or by
the dealer using a diagnostic scan tool.
The seatbelt 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 seatbelt indicator for the following reasons:
- Seatbelt Reminder Function - Each time the cluster receives a battery current input on the fused
ignition switch output (run-start) circuit, the indicator will be illuminated as a seatbelt reminder for
about six seconds, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
This reminder function will occur regardless of the status of the seatbelt switch input to the cluster.
- Driver Side Front Seatbelt Not Buckled - Beltminder Active - Following the seatbelt reminder
function, each time the cluster detects an open circuit on the seat belt indicator driver circuit
(seatbelt switch open = seatbelt unbuckled) with the ignition switch in the START or ON positions,
the indicator will be illuminated. In addition, if the driver side front seat belt remains unbuckled
about 60 seconds after the conclusion of the seatbelt reminder function with the vehicle speed
greater than about 8 kilometers-per-hour (5 miles-per-hour), the seatbelt indicator will begin to
cycle between flashing ON and OFF for 3 seconds, then lighting solid for 2 seconds. The seatbelt
indicator will continue to cycle between flashing and solid illumination for 13 complete cycles, until
the seat belt indicator driver input to the cluster is closed to ground (seatbelt switch closed =
seatbelt buckled), or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Driver Side Front Seatbelt Not Buckled - Beltminder Inactive - Following the seatbelt reminder
function, each time the cluster detects an open circuit on the seat belt indicator driver circuit
(seatbelt switch open = seatbelt unbuckled) with the ignition switch in the START or ON positions,
the indicator will be illuminated. The seatbelt indicator remains illuminated until the seat belt
indicator driver input to the cluster is closed to ground (seatbelt switch closed = seatbelt buckled),
or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
- Airbag Indicator Backup - If the instrument cluster detects a fault in the airbag indicator circuit it
will send an electronic message indicating the fault to the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC),
then flash the seatbelt indicator ON and OFF. The cluster will continue to flash the indicator until
the airbag indicator circuit fault 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 seatbelt 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 seatbelt switch is connected in series between ground and the seat belt indicator driver input
to the instrument cluster. The hard wired seatbelt switch input to the instrument cluster may be
diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring
information.

Seat Belt Retractor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The seat belt retractors used in all seating positions include an inertia-type, emergency locking
mechanism (7) as standard equipment. However, the retractor locking mechanisms for all seating
positions except the driver side front position are mechanically switchable from an emergency
locking retractor to an automatic locking retractor. The primary function of this feature is to securely
accommodate a child seat in any seating position of the vehicle without the need for a self-cinching
seat belt tip half latch plate unit or another supplemental device that would be required to prevent
the seat belt webbing from unwinding freely from the retractor spool of an inertia-type emergency
locking retractor mechanism.
The automatic locking mechanism is integral to the seat belt and retractor unit and is concealed
beneath a molded plastic cover located on one side of the retractor spool. The automatic locking
mechanism cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire passenger
side front seat belt and retractor unit must be replaced.

Seat Belt Retractor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The locked mode of the automatic locking retractor is engaged and the retractor is switched from
operating as a standard inertia-type emergency locking retractor by first buckling the combination
lap and shoulder belt buckle. Then grasp the shoulder belt and pull all of the webbing out of the
retractor. Once all of the belt webbing is extracted from the spool, the retractor will automatically
become engaged in the pre-locked automatic locking mode and will make a light, audible clicking
or ratcheting sound as the shoulder belt is allowed to retract to confirm that the automatic locking
mode is now engaged. Once the automatic locking mode is engaged, the retractor will remain
locked and the belt will remain tight around whatever it is restraining.
The retractor is returned to standard emergency locking (inertia) mode by unbuckling the
combination lap and shoulder belt buckle and allowing the belt webbing to be almost fully retracted
onto the retractor spool. The emergency locking mode is confirmed by the absence of the light,
audible clicking or ratcheting sound as the belt webbing retracts. This mode will allow the belt to
unwind from and wind onto the retractor spool freely unless and until a predetermined inertia load
is sensed, or until the retractor is again switched to the automatic locking mode.

Seat Belt Tensioner: Description and Operation Seat Belt-Tensioner
Description
DESCRIPTION
Seat belt tensioners supplement the dual front airbags for this vehicle. The seat belt tensioners are
integral to the front outboard seat belt retractor units, which are secured to the inner B-pillar on the
right and left sides of the vehicle. The retractor is concealed beneath the molded plastic inner
B-pillar trim.
The seat belt tensioner consists primarily of a sprocket/pinion, a steel tube, a cast metal housing,
numerous steel balls, a stamped metal ball trap, a torsion bar and a small pyrotechnically activated
gas generator with a connector receptacle. All of these components are located on one side of the
retractor spool on the outside of the retractor housing except for the torsion bar, which serves as
the spindle upon which the retractor spool rides. The seat belt tensioners are controlled by the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and are connected to the vehicle electrical system through a
dedicated take out of the body wire harness by a keyed and latching yellow molded plastic
connector insulator to ensure a secure connection.
The seat belt tensioners cannot be repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire front seat belt
and retractor unit must be replaced. If the front airbags have been deployed, the seat belt
tensioners have also been deployed. The seat belt tensioners are not intended for reuse and must
be replaced following any front airbag deployment. A growling or grinding sound while attempting to
operate the seat belt retractor is a sure indication that the seat belt tensioner has been deployed
and requires replacement.
Operation
OPERATION
The seat belt tensioners are deployed in conjunction with the dual front airbags by a signal
generated by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) through the driver or passenger seat belt
tensioner line 1 and line 2 (or squib) circuits. When the ORC sends the proper electrical signal to
the tensioners, the electrical energy generates enough heat to initiate a small pyrotechnic gas
generator.
The gas generator is installed in one end of a steel tube that contains numerous steel balls. As the
gas expands, it pushes the steel balls through the tube into a cast metal housing, where a ball
guide directs the balls into engagement with the teeth of a sprocket that is geared to one end of the
retractor spool. As the balls drive past the sprocket, the sprocket turns and drives the seat belt
retractor spool causing the slack to be removed from the front seat belts. The ball trap captures the
balls as they leave the sprocket and are expelled from the housing.
Removing excess slack from the front seat belts not only keeps the occupants properly positioned
for an airbag deployment following a frontal impact of the vehicle, but also helps to reduce injuries
that the occupant might experience in these situations as a result of harmful contact with the
steering wheel, steering column, instrument panel or windshield. Also, the seat belt tensioner
torsion bar that the retractor spool rides upon is designed to deform in order to control the loading
being applied to the occupants by the seat belts during a frontal impact, further reducing the
potential for occupant injuries.
The ORC monitors the condition of the seat belt tensioners through circuit resistance, and will
illuminate the airbag indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as
the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) and store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that is
detected. Proper diagnosis of the seat belt tensioner gas generator and the seat belt tensioner
squib circuits requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic
information.

Seat Belt Tensioner: Description and Operation Seat Belt Tension Reducer
Description
DESCRIPTION
A seat belt tension reducer is standard equipment for the driver side front outboard seat belt on
standard cab versions of this vehicle. The tension reducer is integral to the retractor unit, which is
secured to the inner B-pillar on the left side of the vehicle. The retractor is concealed beneath the
molded plastic inner B-pillar trim.
The seat belt tension reducer consists primarily of a 12-volt Direct Current (DC) solenoid and an
integral connector receptacle that is located on the forward facing end housing of the retractor. The
seat belt tension reducer is controlled by a battery current output of the ignition switch and a
ground path provided by the seat belt switch, and is connected to the vehicle electrical system
through a dedicated take out of the body wire harness by a keyed and latching molded plastic
connector insulator to ensure a secure connection.
The seat belt tension reducer cannot be repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire driver
side front outboard seat belt and retractor unit must be replaced.
Operation
OPERATION
The seat belt tension reducer is controlled by a ground signal received from the seat belt switch on
the seat belt switch sense circuit and a battery current signal received from the ignition switch on
the fused ignition switch output (run-accessory) circuit. When the seat belt switch is closed (the
driver side front seat belt is fastened) and the ignition switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY
positions, the seat belt tension reducer solenoid is energized.
When the solenoid is energized, it actuates a mechanism within the driver side front outboard seat
belt retractor to reduce the normal recoil spring tension exerted by the retractor spool, which is
designed to reel in the seat belt webbing onto the spool. When the driver side seat belt is
unbuckled or if the ignition switch is turned to any position except ON or ACCESSORY, the tension
reducer solenoid is de-energized and the normal recoil spring tension of the retractor is restored.
The action of the seat belt tension reducer results in improved seat belt comfort for the driver.
Reducing the seat belt retractor recoil spring tension is desirable on standard cab versions of this
vehicle and not on the quad cab or mega cab versions due to the different mounting position
required for the seat belt turning loop on the B-pillar relative to the driver seat position on the
standard cab.
The seat belt tension reducer as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the tension reducer
may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information.

Seat Belt Tensioner: Testing and Inspection
SEAT BELT TENSION REDUCER
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.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the
supplemental restraint system 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
supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental
airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Disconnect the body wire harness connector
for the seat belt tension reducer from the tension
reducer connector receptacle on the driver side front outboard seat belt and retractor unit. Using an
ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the seat belt switch sense circuit terminal pin and the
fused ignition switch output (run-accessory) circuit terminal pin in the tension reducer connector
receptacle on the retractor. Resistance through the tension reducer solenoid coil should be 53
ohms at 20° C (68° F). If OK, go to STEP 2. If not OK, replace the ineffective driver side front
outboard seat belt and retractor unit.
2. Check for continuity between the seat belt switch sense circuit cavity of the body wire harness
connector for the seat belt tension reducer and a
good ground. There should be continuity with the driver side front seat belt buckled, and no
continuity with the driver side front seat belt unbuckled. If OK, go to STEP 3. If not OK, repair the
shorted or open seat belt switch sense circuit between the tension reducer and the seat belt switch
as required.
3. Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check for battery current at the fused ignition switch
output (run-accessory) circuit of the body wire harness
connector for the seat belt tension reducer. There should be battery current with the ignition switch
in the ON or ACCESSORY positions, and no battery current with the ignition switch in any other
position. If not OK, repair the shorted or open fused ignition switch output (run-accessory) circuit
between the tension reducer and the ignition switch as required.

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 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. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for specific recommendations on
when to enable or disable the passenger airbag. 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.

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

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. 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

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.

Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The seat track position sensor (2) is a Hall Effect-type sensor used on some vehicles. This sensor
consists of a Hall Effect Integrated Circuit (IC) chip encased in potting material within a cavity of the
molded plastic sensor housing.
The sensor housing has a mounting slot containing an integral latch feature (1) and slides and
latches onto a stamped metal blade-type bracket located on the inboard side of the upper inboard
seat adjuster track near the rear of the driver side front seat. A molded connector receptacle (3)
integral to the sensor housing is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
and take out of the driver seat wire harness beneath the front seat cushion frame.
The seat track position sensor cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the
entire sensor must be replaced.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 14131
Seat Position Sensor: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The seat track position sensor is designed to provide a seat position data input to the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) indicating whether the driver side front seat is in a full forward or a not
full forward position. The ORC uses this data as an additional logic input for use in determining the
appropriate deployment force to be used when deploying the multistage driver side front airbag.
The seat track position sensor receives a nominal five volt supply from the ORC. The sensor
communicates the seat position by modulating the voltage returned to the ORC on a sensor data
circuit. The ORC also monitors the condition of the sensor circuits and will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any fault that is detected, and sends messages over the Controller Area
Network (CAN) data bus to illuminate the airbag indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument
Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
The hard wired circuits between the seat track position sensor 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 seat
track position sensor or the electronic controls and communication between other modules and
devices that provide features of the supplemental restraint system. The most reliable, efficient, and
accurate means to diagnose the seat track position sensor or the electronic controls and
communication related to seat track position sensor operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
