Chrysler Crossfire. Manual - part 296

2. Using a hand held vacuum pump, connect an appropriate rubber hose 2 in. (50 mm) long to the disconnected

pneumatic supply line.

3. Apply 600 mbar (17.7 in. Hg) vacuum to the pneumatic supply line for 1 minute.

If after 1 minute the vacuum loss is less than 30 mbar (.9 in. Hg), the pneumatic supply lines and actuators are not
the cause of the fault. If after 1 minute the vacuum loss is greater than 30 mbar (.9 in. Hg), perform the Pneumatic
Actuator Test.

Pneumatic Actuator Test

1. Disconnect the pneumatic supply line (1) con-

nected to the pneumatic actuator.

2. Using a hand held vacuum pump, connect an

appropriate rubber hose 2 in. (50 mm) long to the
disconnected pneumatic actuator.

3. Apply 600 mbar (17.7 in. Hg) vacuum to the pneu-

matic actuator for 1 minute.

If after 1 minute the vacuum loss is less than 30 mbar
(.9 in. Hg), perform the Pneumatic Line Test. If after 1
minute the vacuum loss is greater than 30 mbar (.9 in.
Hg), replace the pneumatic actuator.

Pneumatic Line Test

1. Block off one end of the pneumatic supply line and connect a hand held vacuum pump to the other end of the

supply line.

2. Apply 300 mbar (8.9 in. Hg) vacuum to the pneumatic supply line for 1 minute.

If after 1 minute the vacuum loss is 0 mbar (0 in. Hg), then check for pressure and vacuum at the Central Locking
Pump/Security System Module. If after 1 minute the vacuum loss is greater than 0 mbar (0 in. Hg), replace the
pneumatic supply line.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TOGGLING CUSTOMER PREFERENCES

Automatic Locking

The automatic locking function can be activated or deactivated with the DRB III

. The interior power door lock

switch may also be used with the ignition switched on by pressing and holding the power door lock switch for more
than 5 seconds in either the lock (auto locking switched on) or unlock (auto locking switched off) position. The inte-
rior power door lock switch can be inhibited with the DRB III

Global/Selective Central Locking

The keyless entry system has a Global or Selective mode function for central locking that can be programed by the
customer. The factory setting is Global, which will lock and unlock both doors, rear liftgate and fuel door centrally
when the respective button is pressed once. The Selective mode will only change which power locks unlock. To
activate the Selective mode, press both the Unlock and Lock buttons simultaneously for approximately five seconds
until the battery check lamp in the transmitter flashes twice. The Unlock button will then only unlock the driver door
and the fuel door when it is pressed once. Pressing the Unlock button a second time, unlocks the passenger’s door
and the rear liftgate. The factory setting can be restored by pressing both the Unlock and Lock buttons simulta-
neously again for approximately five seconds until the battery check lamp in the transmitter flashes twice. If the
vehicle was locked using the power lock switch in the center console while in the Selective mode, opening a door

from inside unlocks that door only. If the vehicle was locked using the power lock switch in the center console while
in the Global mode, opening a door from the inside unlocks both doors and the rear liftgate. If the vehicle was
locked using the RKE transmitter, the doors and rear liftgate cannot be unlocked using the power lock switch in the
center console. If the vehicle was locked from the outside, opening a door from the inside will not unlock other
openings but it will trigger the alarm.

CENTRAL LOCKING PUMP

DESCRIPTION

The Central Locking Pump/Security System Module
(3) is the pressure/vacuum supply pump for the power
lock system. It is located in the right rear quarter panel
area beneath the floor covering. For complete Central
Locking Pump/Security System Module removal pro-
cedures, refer to Security System Module removal in
the Vehicle Theft section.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING

WARNING: REFER TO RESTRAINTS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY DOOR, SEAT, STEERING WHEEL, STEER-
ING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE
PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PER-
SONAL INJURY. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - WARNING).

8N - 34

POWER LOCKS - SERVICE INFORMATION

When trouble shooting problems related to the pneumatic portion of the Power Lock System, a preliminary inspec-
tion should be performed to determine that the supply lines, actuators, and harness connectors are free from dam-
age. If necessary, repairs to the pneumatic supply system must be performed before proceeding with additional
Power Lock System diagnosis. For wiring diagrams and diagnostic information, refer to Electronic Control Modules.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES - SCHEMATICS AND DIAGRAMS).

KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING

Note: If the transmitter unlock button has been pressed repeatedly while out of range of the receiver, syn-
chronization may have to be restored. To do so, perform the Transmitter Programming procedure in this
section.

Using Special Tool 9001, first test to ensure that the
transmitter is functioning. Typical testing distance is 1
in. (2.5 cm) for Asian transmitters, and 12 in. (30.5
cm) for all others. To test, position the transmitter as
shown. Press any transmitter button, then test each
button individually. The tool will beep if a radio signal
strength that lights five or more LEDs is detected.
Repeat this test three times. If transmitter fails any of
the tests, refer to the Electrical Diagnostic portion of
this section.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING

The Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter(s) can be programmed by the customer without special tools.

PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE

Transmitter programming by the customer is done by performing the following steps:

1. Insert the key into the ignition switch.

2. Press either the lock or unlock button momentarily twice.

3. Turn the key in the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position within 30 seconds.

SPECIFICATIONS

TRANSMITTER

BATTERY TESTING

The batteries in the Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter can be tested by pressing and holding both the lock and
unlock buttons simultaneously for more than one second. The batteries are charged sufficiently if the LED next to
the ignition key blade lights up briefly.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The transmitter has two 3 volt batteries, which can be
removed and replaced without special tools. First,
release the key from the closed position; then insert a
coin in the side slot of the transmitter and twist. The
cover should separate from the body of the transmitter
where the batteries are stacked on top of each other.
The batteries are available at local retail stores. Rec-
ommended replacement batteries are Panasonic

2025 lithium or equivalent. Battery life for normal use
is about two years.

Note: The transmitter MUST be reprogrammed
after the batteries are replaced.

TRANSMITTER RANGE

Operation range is within 20 meters (66 feet) of the module/receiver.

POWER LOCK SWITCH

DESCRIPTION

The mounting arrangement of the power lock switch is unique and integrated with additional switches within the trim
panel on the center console. The power lock switch is not serviceable separately. When replacement is necessary,
the service part includes additional switches.
