TRANSVERSE BRACKET
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with a power liftgate utilize a
transverse bracket (Fig. 15) to support and secure
the power liftgate gear/motor assembly to the left
rear body D-pillar.
The transverse bracket is a serviceable power lift-
gate component. Consult your Mopar™ parts catalog
for a specific part number.
OPERATION
The power liftgate transverse bracket supports the
gear motor assembly by supplying an additional
attachment point. Located on the leading edge of the
gear motor assembly, one end of the transverse
bracket attaches to the motor assembly the other to
the leading edge of the vehicles D-pillar.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the left D-pillar trim from the vehicle.
Refer to Body for the procedure.
(3) Disconnect the gear motor assembly electrical
connector and disengage retaining pushpin.
(4) Loosen the gear motor assembly retaining bolts
to allow room for transverse bracket to be removed.
(5) Remove the transverse bracket retaining bolts
(Fig. 12).
(6) Remove the transverse bracket from the vehi-
cle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the transverse bracket in the vehicle.
Be certain the transverse bracket is properly posi-
tioned. The bracket should just touch the engage
actuator arm and be positioned between the actuator
arm and the motor housing.
(2) Torque the transverse bracket retaining bolts
to the gear motor assembly to 9.5 N·m (85 in. lbs.).
Do not tighten the transverse bracket retaining bolt,
located under the window actuator at this time.
(3) Torque the gear motor assembly retaining bolts
to 9.5 N·m (85 in. lbs.).
(4) Torque the final transverse bracket retaining
bolt to 9.5 N·m (85 in. lbs.).
(5) Connect the gear motor assembly electrical con-
nector and engage retaining pushpin.
(6) Install the appropriate D-pillar trim from the
vehicle. Refer to Body for the procedure.

POWER SLIDING DOOR
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles are equipped with a power opening
and closing sliding door system (Fig. 1). Depending
on how the vehicle is ordered it may be equipped
with only a right side power door or right and left
side power doors. This power sliding door system is a
complex system consisting of many components.
Some of these components are the door motor, latch
assembly, sliding door control module, lower drive
unit, flex drive assembly, wire harness and track,
lower drive unit track and rack assembly, full open
switch, B-pillar switch, overhead console switch, key
fob switches (Fig. 2), pawl switch, ratchet switch and
child lockout and handle switches.
Each power side door has its own door control mod-
ule, located in the center of the door behind the door
trim panel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELEC-
TRONIC CONTROL MODULES/DOOR CONTROL
MODULE - DESCRIPTION) The power side door
motor is located in the front portion of the door, on
the inner door panel sheet metal. The latch assembly
is located in the rear of the power side door, near the
body line. The lower drive unit is attached to the
lower door hinge. The flex drive assembly connects
the door motor to the lower drive unit. The wire har-
ness and track and the lower drive unit track are vis-
ible with the door open in the lower door sill area.
The power side door full open switch is located under
the lower drive unit and is part of the hold open
latch assembly. The pawl, ratchet, handle and child
lockout switches are all located on the power side
door latch assembly. The B-pillar switch, as it will be
referred to, is an open and close command switch

located on the vehicles interior body side B-pillar
trim. The overhead console switch, is an open and
close command switch located in the vehicle’s over-
head console. More detailed information can be found
on these components later in this section.
Safety is of the utmost concern with the power
sliding door system. Software technology has enabled
the power sliding door control module to detect resis-
tance to door travel. This allows the power sliding
door to stop and reverse direction any time an
obstruction is felt or any of the command switches
are operated (while closing only). Battery voltage is
supplied to the power sliding door system through a
40 amp fuse, located in the Intelligent Power Module
(IPM) assembly (Fig. 3). The child lockout switch pre-
vents children from opening or actuating the power
sliding door system when desired. In the unlikely
event that the power sliding door system develops a
fault, the power sliding door can still be operated
manually from the interior or exterior door handle,
just like a standard manual sliding door.
The power sliding door control module communi-
cates on the J1850 PCI Data Bus Circuit. Therefore,
the power sliding door control module can generate
and store its own diagnostic trouble codes (DTC). A
diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB III
t is used to
read and diagnose these trouble codes. Refer to the

Diagnostic Trouble Codes during normal power
sliding door operation. Refer to the Body Diagnos-
tic Manual for a complete list of diagnostic routines.

CAL/POWER DOORS - OPERATION). For a com-
plete power sliding door system wiring schematic,

tem operation instructions, refer to the vehicle owner

OPERATION
With the push of a power sliding door open/close
command switch (key fob, overhead console or B-pil-
lar mounted) a signal is sent out to the Body Control
Module (BCM). The BCM then sends a signal out on
the PCI Data Bus circuit (J1850) to the power sliding
door module. The power sliding door module then
signals the power sliding door latch to release the
door to the unlatched and movable position. The
motor then starts an open cycle.
During the door open cycle, if the power sliding
door module detects sufficient resistance to door
travel, such as an obstruction in the door’s path, the
power sliding door module will immediately stop door
movement and reverse door travel to the full open or
closed position. The ability for the power sliding door
module to detect resistance to door travel is accom-
plished by hall effect sensors and the door motor
speed.
The power sliding door control module has the abil-
ity to learn. Anytime a door is opened or closed using
the power sliding door system the module learns
from its cycle. If a replacement power sliding door
component is installed or a door adjustment is made,
the module must re-learn the effort required to open
or close the door. A learn cycle can be performed with
a Diagnostic Scan Tool, such as the DRB III
t, or with
a complete cycle of the door, using any one of the
command switches. Refer to Standard Procedures in
this section for detailed instructions.
The power sliding door system is designed with a
number of system inhibitors. These inhibitors are
necessary for safety and/or feasibility of the power
sliding door system. See the power sliding door sys-
tem inhibitors noted below:
POWER SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM INHIBITORS
• The power sliding door must be in the full open
or closed position in order for the power sliding door
system to start a cycle. If the door is not in this posi-
tion (based on the input from the full open, pawl or
ratchet switches) the door control module will not
respond to command switch inputs.
• The vehicles transmission must be in park or
neutral in order for the power sliding door system to
start a cycle.
• The vehicles child lockout switch must be in the
“UNLOCKED” position in order for the power sliding
door systems B-pillar switches to function.
• If multiple obstacles are detected during the
same power open or close cycle the power sliding
door may go into full manual mode.
• If severe Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are
stored in the power sliding door control module the
power sliding door may go into full manual mode.
• Due to the high pressure created in the passen-
ger compartment with the blower motor on high, the
power sliding door may not complete a power close
cycle unless a window is cracked, allowing the pres-
sure to escape. This situation will only be experi-
enced on some vehicles, or vehicles with brand new
side door weather seals installed. Refer to the Side
Door Adjustment procedure in the Standard Proce-
dures section of this group.
• The vehicles fuel tank filler door must be in the
closed position. Due to the sliding door interference
with the open fuel tank filler door, mechanical link-
age prevents the side door from opening and striking
