Alarm Module: Description and Operation
SENTRY KEY IMMOBILIZER MODULE

(SKIM) (RF)

(PCM) (BCM)

The Sentry Key Immobilizer Module contains a Radio Frequency transceiver and a microprocessor. The SKIM retains in memorythe ID numbers of any Sentry Key that is programmed to it. The maximum number of keys that may be programmed to each module is eight (8).The SKIM also communicates over the PCI bus with the Powertrain Control Module , the Body Control Module , and the DRB IIIscan tool. The SKIM transmits and receives RF signals through a tuned antenna enclosed within a molded plastic ring formation that is integral tothe SKIM housing. When the SKIM is properly installed on the steering column, the antenna ring fits snugly around the circumference of theignition lock cylinder housing. If this ring is not mounted properly, communication problems may arise in the form of transponder-related faults.

(SKIS)

(VIN)

For added system security, each SKIM is programmed with a unique "Secret Key" code. This code is stored in memory and is sent over the PCIbus to the PCM and to each key that is programmed to work with the vehicle. The "Secret Key" code is therefore a common element found in allcomponents of the Sentry Key Immobilizer System . In the event that a SKIM replacement is required, the "Secret Key" code can berestored from the PCM by following the SKIM replacement procedure found in the DRB III scan tool. Proper completion of this task will allowthe existing ignition keys to be reprogrammed. Therefore, new keys will NOT be needed. In the event that the original "Secret Key" code can notbe recovered, new ignition keys will be required. The DRB III scan tool will alert the technician if key replacement is necessary. Another securitycode, called a PIN, is used to gain secured access to the SKIM for service. The SKIM also stores in its memory the Vehicle Identification Number , which it learns through a bus message from the assembly plant tester. The SKIS scrambles the information that is communicated betweenits components in order to reduce the possibility of unauthorized SKIM access and/or disabling.

When the ignition switch is moved to the RUN position, the SKIM transmits an RF signal to the transponder in the ignition key. The SKIM thenwaits for a response RF signal from the transponder in the key. If the response received identifies the key as valid, the SKIM sends a "valid key"message to the PCM over the PCI bus. If the response received identifies the key as invalid or no response is received from the transponder in theignition key, the SKIM sends an "invalid key" message to the PCM. The PCM will enable or disable engine operation based upon the status of theSKIM messages. It is important to note that the default condition in the PCM is "invalid key." Therefore, if no response is received by the PCM,the engine will be immobilized after of running.two (2) seconds

The SKIM also sends indicator light status messages to the BCM to operate the light. This is the method used to turn the light ON solid or to flashit after the indicator light test is complete to signify a fault in the SKIS. If the light comes ON and stays ON solid after the indicator light test, thissignifies that the SKIM has detected a system malfunction and/or that the SKIS has become inoperative. If the SKIM detects an invalid key OR akey-related fault exists, the indicator light will flash following the indicator light test. The SKIM may also request an audible chime if the customerkey programming feature is available and the procedure is being utilized. Refer to Electrical, Vehicle Theft Security, Transponder Key, StandardProcedure - Transponder Programming.

Electronic Brake Control Module: Description and Operation

Fig.1 Integrated Control Unit (Typical)

CONTROLLER ANTILOCK BRAKE

(CAB) (ABS)

(ICU)

The Controller Antilock Brake is a microprocessor-based device which monitors the Antilock Brake System during normal brakingand controls it when the vehicle is in an ABS stop. The CAB is mounted to the HCU as part of the Integrated Control Unit . The CAB uses a24-way electrical connector on the vehicle wiring harness. The power source for the CAB is through the ignition switch in the RUN or ONposition. The CAB is on the PCI bus.

The primary functions of the controller antilock brake (CAB) are to:-

Monitor the antilock brake system for proper operation.

- Detect wheel locking or wheel slipping tendencies by monitoring the speed of all four wheels of the vehicle.

- Control fluid modulation to the wheel brakes while the system is in an ABS mode.

- Store diagnostic information.

- Provide communication to the DRB III scan tool while in diagnostic mode.

- Illuminate the amber ABS warning indicator lamp.

The CAB constantly monitors the antilock brake system for proper operation. If the CAB detects a fault, it will turn ON the amber ABS warningindicator lamp and disable the antilock braking system. The normal base braking system will remain operational.

The CAB continuously monitors the speed of each wheel through the signals generated by the wheel speed sensors to determine if any wheel isbeginning to lock. When a wheel locking tendency is detected, the CAB commands the CAB command coils to actuate. The coils then open andclose the valves in the HCU that modulate brake fluid pressure in some or all of the hydraulic circuits. The CAB continues to control pressure inindividual hydraulic circuits until a locking tendency is no longer present.

(DTC)

The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program that monitors the antilock brake system for system faults. when a fault is detected, the amber ABSwarning indicator lamp is turned ON and the fault Diagnostic Trouble Code is then stored in a diagnostic program memory. These DTC'swill remain in the CAB memory even after the ignition has been turned OFF. The DTC's can be read and cleared from the CAB memory by atechnician using the DRB III scan tool. If not cleared with a DRB III scan tool, the fault occurrence and DTC will be automatically cleared fromthe CAB memory after the identical fault has not been seen during the next .3,500 miles

Cab Inputs

- Wheel speed sensors (four)

- Brake lamp switch

- Ignition switch

- System and pump voltage

- Ground

- Diagnostic communication (PCI)

Cab Outputs

Compressor Clutch Relay: Description and Operation
COMPRESSOR CLUTCH RELAY

(ISO)

The compressor clutch relay is a International Standards Organization micro-relay. The terminal designations and functions are the same as aconventional ISO relay. However, the micro-relay terminal orientation (footprint) is different, the current capacity is lower, and the relay casedimensions are smaller than those of the conventional ISO relay.

(PDC)

The compressor clutch relay is located in the Power Distribution Center in the engine compartment. Refer to the PDC label for relayidentification and location.

(PCM)

The A/C compressor clutch relay is a electromechanical device that switches battery current to the A/C compressor clutch coil when the PowertrainControl Module grounds the coil side of the relay. The PCM responds to inputs from the A/C heater control (Manual Temperature Control, orAutomatic Temperature Control) , the Body Control Module , and the a/c pressure transducer.(BCM)

The compressor clutch relay cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.

Horn Relay: Description and Operation

(ISO)

The horn relay is a International Standards Organization micro-relay. The terminal designations and functions are the same as a conventional ISOrelay. However, the micro-relay terminal orientation (or footprint) is different, current capacity is lower, and the relay case dimensions are smaller thanon the conventional ISO relay.
The horn relay is a electromechanical device that switches current to the horn when the Driver Airbag Module is depressed.

The horn relay is located in the Junction Block. Refer to the Junction Block label for horn relay identification and location.

If a problem is encountered with a continuously sounding horn, it can usually be quickly resolved by removing the horn relay from the Junction Blockuntil further diagnosis is completed. The horn relay cannot be repaired and, if faulty, it must be replaced.

Horn Relay: Testing and Inspection

1. Remove horn relay from the Junction Block.2. Using ohmmeter, test between the Junction Block relay terminal 7 and ground for continuity.

a. When the horn contact is not depressed, no continuity.b. Continuity to ground when horn contact is depressed.c. If continuity is not correct, repair horn contact or wiring as necessary.

3. Insert a jumper wire between terminals 8 and 10 of the horn relay in the Junction Block.
a. If horns sound replace relay.b. If the horns do not sound, install horn relay and refer to Horn Test.

4. Using voltmeter, test battery voltage:
a. Test Junction Block horn relay terminals 6 and 8 for voltage from fuse 8.b. If not OK, repair as necessary.
