In-Vehicle Calibration: Calibration/Diagnostics

1999 Dodge and Ram Caravan Base, 2.4 BSECTION Calibration/Diagnostics
  1. To enter calibration/diagnostics test, set parking brake. Start and warm engine to normal operating temperature. With engine idling, turn blower switch to high. Turn mode switch to panel. Open all outlets. Move temperature lever to full cold.
  2. Press and hold rear wash and rear wiper buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds (until all LEDs illuminate). All LEDs should illuminate for 5 seconds. Rear wiper and intermittent rear wiper button LEDs will flash alternately during calibration/diagnostics test.
  3. After approximately 60 seconds, if only rear wiper button LED is flashing, calibration is successful and system is okay. If rear wiper and intermittent rear wiper button LEDs are flashing, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) are present, see READING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODESΒ  under SELF-DIAGNOSTICS.
  4. To exit calibration/diagnostics test at any time, press rear window defogger button, rear wiper button, or cycle ignition off and then on. Test will automatically end 15 minutes after calibration/diagnostics is entered.
