Fuse for vehicle with EPS
The vehicle with EPS has EPS fuse (80A)
mounted to the positive (+) terminal of the
battery not in the fuse box.
EPS unit
The ECU controls the electric power
steering system depending on the driving
conditions, based on the signals from the
torque and angle sensor.
HECU (Hydraulic & Electronic Control Unit)
HECU for ABS HECU for EPS
The HECU (Hydraulic & Electronic Control Unit) determines the slip conditions of vehicle wheels by
calculating each wheel's speed and the increment/decrement of speed based on the information
detected by the sensors, and controls the pumping and boosting/reducing/keeping pressure by
operating the valve and motor of HECU.

Steering wheel angle sensor (SWAS)
The steering wheel angle sensor is mounted between
the steering column and the steering column shaft. It is
commonly used by the ESP (Electronic Stability
Program) system. And it receives signals of the steering
wheel angle sensor from the ESP HECU (Hydraulic &
Electronic Control Unit).

G-sensor(4WD, ABS)
For the vehicle with the ABS, a speed difference
between the wheels is not noticeable as all the
wheels are slipping during abrupt braking.
Therefore, the vehicle needs the speed information
from other sensors other than the wheel speed
sensor. The longitudinal acceleration sensor (G-
sensor) is used for this case. It controls the ABS by
using the signals from the sensor during abrupt
braking and acceleration.
TCU unit
The transmission control unit (TCU) is installed under
the driver seat, and controls the transmission. The
TCU is operated by the ignition power supply and
receives and processes the following information from
the inner sensors through CAN buses.E-coupling unit
The E-coupling unit is a control unit which
determines the magnetic force by
considering CAN signals (wheel speed,
engine torque, pedal opening, ABS/ESP
CAN signals, etc.) from other ECUs.
TGS Lever assembly
The TGS communicates with TCU
(Transmission Control Unit), ECU,
ESP HECU and instrument cluster
to let the driver select the desired
transmission gear and to maintain
the desired driving condition. Also,
the tip switch is installed on the
lever knob and the steering wheel
so that the driver select the gear
manually when the shift lever is in
"M".Sensor cluster
The sensor cluster is linked to
the sensors on the unit board
and CAN interface. And they
are housed in one case and
mounted to the body.

The rear axle installed in this car is a removable
axle, called IRDA (Independent Rear Differential
Axle). The rear differential carrier is installed
directly on the sub frame, and there is an
independent suspension that allows each wheel
on the same axle to move vertically independentl

of each other with the universal joint and the slip
joint.

one that used in other vehicle so that it can be applied to FF
(Front engine-Front wheel driving) type vehicle, and has an
axle in one piece. The engine torque and gear ratio of this
transmission have been optimized to maximize driving
performance. It provides 6 speeds for forward travel and 1
reverse travel.

Steering gear box assembly
The steering gear box assembly consists of power cylinder and control valve. The power cylinder has a
cylinder, piston and piston rod. The control valve directs the oil to one end face of the piston to enhance
the steering force. There is a safety check valve which lets the driver steer manually when there is a
malfunction in the hydraulic circuit.

1) HPS (Hydraulic Power Steering)
The hydraulic pump is a vane
type pump and consists of the
flow control valve and pressure
relief valve.The oil reservoir sends the oil to
the power steering pump and
receives the oil from the power
steering gear.There is a shock absorber which
is folded in the axial direction
when the vehicle is crashed and
a ignition switch assembly on
the column shaft.
The lower shaft minimizes the
torque change using a CV joint
which has constant angular
speed.

ECU
The ECU controls the electric
power steering system
depending on the driving
conditions, based on the
signals from the torque and
angle sensor.
2) EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Fuse
The vehicle with EPS has
EPS fuse (80A) mounted to
the positive (+) terminal of the
battery, and this fuse supplies
power to the EPS unit
directly..
Steering gear box assembly
When the driver turns the steering wheel, a torque is generated and the torque sensor and the steering
angle sensor in the EPS system detect the rotation of the steering column to run the electric motor. At
this time, the worm gear connected to the motor drives the helical gear mounted to the steering column
to generate the assist torque for the steering column. This allows the driver to operate the steering
wheel easier.

regardless of whether the engine is
running or not, unlike the existing
hydraulic power steering.
The lower shafts functions in the
same way as the hydraulic type.

3) General Instructions
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
When using a jack, park the vehicle on a level ground and place the wheel chocks under the tires.
Position the jack under the frame and lift up the vehicle and then support with chassis stand before
service work.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
If you have to work on vehicle, cover the seats and floor with protection covers to avoid any
damage and contamination.
Brake fluid and anti-freeze can damage the painted surface of body. So carefully handle them
during service work.
To improve the efficiency of service work, use only recommended and specified tools.
Use only Ssangyong genuine spare parts.
Never reuse the cotter pin, gasket, O-ring, oil seal, lock washer and self-locking nut. Replace them
with new ones. If reused, normal functions cannot be maintained.
Store the disassembled parts as a set based on disassembly order and unit.
Pay particular attention not to miss or mix the fasteners.
If necessary, especially for inspection, clean the removed parts completely.
Apply the oil or grease on the running and sliding surfeces before installation. Use the specified
sealant and gasket to prevent leakage if necessary.
Tighten the fasteners to the specified tightening torque.
As a final stage of service work, check if the serviced system is working properly and the problem
has been eliminated clearly. (1)

4. LIMP HOME MODE
When the transaxle is defective ▶
In the event of a system fault, the TCU also provides for failure mode effect control (FMEC) to maintain
maximum functional operation of the transaxle.
In the event of a total loss of control or electrical power, the basic transaxle functions (Park, Reverse,
Neutral and Drive) are retained. The 4th and reverse gear ratios with the torque converter clutch in the
unlocked state are the retained gear states the hydraulic system supports without any electrical
assistance.
The TCU communicates with other vehicle electronic control modules by the controller area network
(CAN). If a major fault develops, the transaxle may automatically operate in a "limp home" (failure)
mode to enable the vehicle to be driven to an authorized dealer for repair.
The TCU also provides for transaxle diagnostics, which meet the requirements of OBD II legislation,
monitoring all components which may effect vehicle emissions. 1.

When the transaxle overheats ▶
Limp home mode may also be engaged if the battery charge falls below 8V.
If the transaxle overheats, the shift patterns will automatically change to enable improved transaxle
cooling.

Towing the automatic transaxle equipped vehicle ▶
Flat-bed equipment is the best method of moving a disabled vehicle to avoid any damages.
For AWD vehicle: The vehicle must be towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with
all the wheels off the ground.
For 2WD vehicles: It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the rear wheels on the ground without
dollies and the front wheels off the ground. When being towed by a commercial towtruck and wheel
dollies are not available, the front of the vehicle should be lifted, not the rear. -
