Power Door Lock System
The door lock switches provide a variable amount of voltage through the multiplexed (MUX) circuit to the BCM. Depending upon that input and various
conditions that must be met (i.e. door lock inhibit, etc.), the BCM will determine the action to be taken and activate the proper relay for approximately
250 to 350 msec. If the vehicle is equipped with the vehicle theft security system it will have the central locking feature which locks and unlocks all
doors from the cylinder lock switches. These switches are on separate multiplexed circuits to the BCM and have trouble codes relating to each of them.
RKE Remote Keyless Entry - This feature allows locking and unlocking of the vehicle door(s) by remote control using a hand-held transmitter
(sometimes referred to as a fob) to activate a radio receiver (RKE module). This module now plugs into the body control module which is directly
connected to the junction block. With this feature RKE can now be added to a non-equipped vehicle by installing a module. If the vehicle is equipped
with the vehicle theft security system, RKE will also arm and disarm that system. A 4-button transmitter is used which provides lock, unlock, decklid
release and panic features. Decklid release is only operable while the vehicle is in the park position. The module is capable of retaining up to 4
transmitter codes. Rolling code, which increases security, is also included in this system. If the transmitter goes out of synchronization it is easily put
back in by pressing the lock button when the transmitter is within range. An external antenna has been added which plugs into the module to provide
greater range. RKE will also turn on the interior lamps when a valid unlock command is received and will extinguish the interior lamps when a lock
command is received and all doors are closed.
Door Lock Inhibit - When the key is in the ignition and the driver front door is open, all door lock switches are disabled. The unlock switches are still
functional. This protects against locking the vehicle with the keys still in the ignition.
Automatic (rolling)Door Locks - This feature can be enabled or disabled by using either the DRBIII(R) or the customer programmable method. When
enabled, all doors will lock when the vehicle reaches a speed of 15 mph (24 kmh) and all doors are closed. If a door is opened and the vehicle slows to
below 15 mph (24 kmh), the locks will operate again once all doors are closed and the speed is above 15 mph (24 kmh). This feature is not available in
European markets.
Decklid Release - Decklid release is now a function of the body control module. Trouble codes are provided to assist in the diagnosis of this system.
Customer programmable features are: Horn chirp, one or two press decklid release, programming a new transmitter (using a previously programmed
transmitter), rolling door locks, unlock on exit, and RKE lamp flash.
Vehicle Communication
The Programmable Communication Interface or PCI Bus is a single wire multiplexed network capable of supporting binary encoded messages shared
between multiple modules. The PCI bus circuit is identified as D25. The modules are wired in parallel. Connections are made through the BCM. The
BCM acts as a splice to connect each module and the Data Link Connector (DLC) together. The following modules are used on 2002 JR:
-
Airbag Control Module or referred to as the
-
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
-
Left Side Impact Airbag Control Module
-
Right Side Impact Airbag Control Module
-
Controller Antilock Brake
-
Powertrain Control Module
-
Radio (if equipped)
-
CD Changer (if equipped)
-
Compass/Mini-Trip Computer (if equipped)
-
Body Control Module
-
Sentry Key Immobilizer Module
-
Transmission Control Module
-
Mechanical Instrument Cluster
Each module provides its own bias and termination in order to transmit and receive messages. The bus voltage is at zero volts when no modules are
transmitting and is pulled up to about seven and a half volts when modules are transmitting.
The bus messages are transmitted at a rate averaging 10800 bits per second. Since there is only voltage present when the modules transmit and the
