i nformati on on the features and use of thi s system.
MEMORY SYSTEM
An el ectroni c memory system i s an avai l abl e opti on
on thi s model . The memory system i s abl e to store
and recal l the dri ver si de power seat posi ti ons
(i ncl udi ng power l umbar and recl i ner posi ti ons), and
both outsi de power mi rror posi ti ons for two dri vers.
For vehi cl es wi th a radi o connected to the Chrysl er
Col l i si on Detecti on (CCD) data bus network, the
memory system i s al so abl e to store and recal l ten
radi o stati on presets (i ncl udi ng l ast stati on tuned) for
two dri vers. The memory system wi l l automati cal l y
return to al l of these setti ngs when the correspond-
i ng button (Dri ver 1 or 2) of the memory swi tch on
the dri ver si de front door tri m panel i s depressed, or
when the doors are unl ocked usi ng the correspondi ng
(Dri ver 1 or 2) Remote Keyl ess Entry (RKE) trans-
mi tter.
The Dri ver Door Modul e (DDM) recei ves hard-
wi red i nput from the memory set/sel ect swi tch on the
dri ver si de front door tri m panel . The DDM al so
recei ves messages on the CCD data bus from the
RKE recei ver i n the Passenger Door Modul e (PDM)
for the memory sel ect functi on. The DDM processes
these i nputs and sends messages to the PDM, the
Memory Seat Modul e (MSM), and the radi o (i f CCD
data bus capabl e) on the CCD data bus for memory
recal l .
The CCD data bus network al l ows the shari ng of
sensor i nformati on. Thi s hel ps to reduce wi re har-
ness compl exi ty, reduce i nternal control l er hardware,
and reduce component sensor current l oads. At the
same ti me, thi s system provi des i ncreased rel i abi l i ty,
enhanced di agnosti cs, and al l ows the addi ti on of
many new feature capabi l i ti es.
Thi s group covers onl y the conventi onal di agnosti c
procedures for the power mi rror system components.
For di agnosi s of the memory system, the use of a
DRB scan tool and the proper Di agnosti c Procedures
manual are recommended. For addi ti onal i nformati on

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
POWER MIRROR
The power mi rrors are connected to battery feed at
al l ti mes. Each mi rror head contai ns two el ectri c
motors, two dri ve mechani sms, an el ectri c heati ng
el ement, and the mi rror gl ass. I f the vehi cl e i s
equi pped wi th the opti onal memory system, each
mi rror head al so contai ns both a hori zontal and a
verti cal motor posi ti on sensor. One motor and dri ve
control s mi rror up-and-down movement, and the
other control s ri ght-and-l eft movement.
The power mi rrors are equi pped wi th a standard
equi pment el ectri c heati ng gri d l ocated behi nd the
mi rror gl ass. Thi s heati ng gri d i s energi zed or de-en-
ergi zed by the Dri ver Door Modul e (DDM) or Passen-
ger Door Modul e (PDM) i n response to messages
pl aced on the Chrysl er Col l i si on Detecti on (CCD)
data bus by the Body Control Modul e (BCM). Refer
to Group 8N - El ectri cal l y Heated Systems for more
i nformati on on the operati on of the rear wi ndow
defogger system.
An opti onal dri ver si de outsi de el ectrochromi c mi r-
ror i s abl e to automati cal l y change i ts refl ectance
l evel . Thi s mi rror i s control l ed by the ci rcui try of the
automati c day/ni ght i nsi de rear vi ew mi rror. A thi n
l ayer of el ectrochromi c materi al between two pi eces
of conducti ve gl ass make up the face of the mi rror.
Two photocel l sensors on the i nsi de rear vi ew mi rror
are used to moni tor l i ght l evel s and adjust the refl ec-
tance of both the i nsi de and dri ver si de outsi de mi r-
rors. Thi s change i n refl ectance hel ps to reduce the
gl are of headl amps approachi ng the vehi cl e from the
rear. Refer to the Automati c Day/Ni ght Mi rror sec-
ti on of thi s group for more i nformati on on the opera-
ti on of thi s system.
The power mi rror assembl y cannot be repai red.
Onl y the mi rror gl ass and gl ass case are servi ced
separatel y. I f any other component of the power mi r-
ror uni t i s faul ty or damaged, the enti re mi rror head
assembl y must be repl aced.
POWER MIRROR SWITCH
Both the ri ght and l eft power outsi de mi rrors are
control l ed by a si ngl e mul ti -functi on swi tch uni t
l ocated on the dri ver si de front door tri m panel . Thi s
swi tch uni t i s i ntegral to the Dri ver Door Modul e
(DDM).
A sel ector swi tch i s moved ri ght (ri ght mi rror con-
trol ), l eft (l eft mi rror control ), or center to turn the
power outsi de mi rror control off. Then one of four
di recti onal control buttons i s depressed to control
movement of the sel ected mi rror up, down, ri ght, or
l eft.
The power mi rror swi tch cannot be repai red and, i f
faul ty or damaged, the enti re DDM uni t must be
repl aced.
DOOR MODULE
A Dri ver Door Modul e (DDM) and a Passenger
Door Modul e (PDM) are used on thi s model to control
and i ntegrate many of the el ectroni c features and
functi ons on the vehi cl e. Each door modul e contai ns
the power mi rror control l ogi c for the mi rror on i ts
respecti ve door. The DDM al so houses the power mi r-
ror swi tch.
The DDM and PDM communi cate wi th each other,
and wi th other vehi cl e modul es on the Chrysl er Col -
l i si on Detecti on (CCD) data bus network. The CCD
data bus network al l ows the shari ng of sensor i nfor-
mati on. Thi s hel ps to reduce wi re harness compl exi ty,
i nternal control l er hardware, and component sensor
current l oads. At the same ti me, thi s system provi des
i ncreased rel i abi l i ty, enhanced di agnosti cs, and
al l ows the addi ti on of many new feature capabi l i ti es.
Each door modul e control s the posi ti oni ng of i ts
respecti ve outsi de mi rror through hard-wi red outputs
to that mi rror. When the power mi rror swi tch on the
DDM i s used to posi ti on the passenger si de outsi de
mi rror, the DDM sends mi rror posi ti oni ng messages
to the PDM on the CCD data bus. The PDM then
moves the passenger si de mi rror accordi ngl y.
Both the PDM and DDM respond to the defogger
swi tch status messages sent by the Body Control
Modul e (BCM) on the CCD data bus to control the
heater el ements of thei r respecti ve mi rrors. Refer to
Group 8N - El ectri cal l y Heated Systems for more
i nformati on on thi s feature.
On model s equi pped wi th the opti onal memory sys-
tem, each door modul e al so recei ves a hard-wi red
i nput from the two power mi rror motor posi ti on sen-
sors i ntegral to the mi rror. The door modul e then
stores the Dri ver 1 and 2 mi rror posi ti on i nformati on
for i ts respecti ve mi rror. When the DDM recei ves a
Dri ver 1 or 2 si gnal from the memory swi tch on the
dri ver si de front door tri m panel or from the Remote
Keyl ess Entry (RKE) recei ver i n the PDM, the DDM
posi ti ons the dri ver si de mi rror and sends a memory
recal l message back to the PDM on the CCD data
bus to posi ti on the passenger si de mi rror.
For di agnosi s of the DDM, PDM, or the CCD data
bus network, a DRB scan tool and the proper Di ag-
nosti c Procedures manual are recommended. The
DDM and the PDM cannot be repai red and, i f dam-
aged or faul ty, they must be repl aced.
