Intrepid V6-2.7L VIN R (2003)
The difference between a CMTC and an EVIC is that only the EVIC provides additional memory and feature programming. The EVIC is capable of
displaying memory system messages when the vehicle is equipped with memory systems. The EVIC also provides the interface to enable and disable
vehicle programmable features when the vehicle is equipped with certain features. If equipped, the EVIC is also available with an integrated Universal
Garage Door Opener (UGDO) known as HomeLink. Also if equipped, the EVIC is available with a Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) System.
Both the CMTC and EVIC function buttons are labeled C/T, RESET, STEP and MENU. The three UGDO buttons are labeled with dots to indicate
the channel number.
The BCM supplies most of the information displayed by the CMTC/EVIC. Display information, except for the internal compass function, is received
over the PCI bus. The CMTC/EVIC sends and receives data over the PCI bus, communicating with the BCM and PCM. Tire Pressure Monitoring
System information is received by the EVIC in the form of radio transmissions. The tire pressure sensors are mounted to the vehicle wheels. For
complete information, refer to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System section in this publication.
