Totally Integrated Power Module
Description
All of the electrical current distributed throughout this vehicle is directed through the standard equipment totally integrated power module. The molded plastic TIPM housing is located on the left side of the engine compartment. The TIPM housing has a molded plastic cover. The TIPM cover is easily removed for service access and has a convenient fuse layout label affixed to the inside surface of the cover to ensure proper component identification.
The TIPM housing is secured to the TIPM bracket by four clips integral to the TIPM housing. All of the TIPM outputs are through the integral engine compartment wire harness.
