Radial Tire Waddle DescriptionS7RS0B2401005
Waddle is side to side movement at the front and/or rear
of the vehicle. It is caused by the steel belt not being
straight within the tire. It is most noticeable at a low
speed, 8 to 48 kph (5 to 30 mph).
It is possible to locate the f aulty tire by road testing the
vehicle. If it is on the rear , the rear end of the vehicle
shakes from side to side or “waddles”. To the driver in
the seat, it feels as though someone is pushing on the
side of vehicle.
If the faulty tire is on the front, waddling is more visual.
The front sheet metal appears to be moving back and
forth and the driver feels as though he is at the pivot
point in vehicle.
Waddle can be quickly diagnosed by using Tire Problem
Detector (TPD) and following the equipment
manufacture’s recommendations.
If TPD is not available, an alternative method of
substituting known-good tire / wheel assemblies can be
used as follows, although it takes a longer time. 1) Ride vehicle to determine whether the front or rear
waddles.
2) Install tires and wheels that are known to be good (on similar vehicle) in place of those on waddling end
of vehicle. If waddling end cannot be identified,
substitute rear ones.
3) Road test again. If improvement is noted, reinstall originals one at a time till w addle causal tire is found.
If no improvement is noted, install known-good tires
in place of all four. Then reinstall originals in the
same manner.

Rear End Door Window Defogger System DescriptionS7RS0B9501001
The rear end door window defogger is controlled by BCM. For the BCM description refer to “BCM General Description
in Section 10B”.
Windshield ConstructionS7RS0B9501002
The windshield is installed by using a special type of adhesive (that is, one component urethane adhesive used with
primer). For the windshield replacement, it is important to use an adhesive which provides sufficient adhesion strength
and follow the proper procedure.
CAUTION!
• Described is the glass replacement by using 3 types of primers and 1 type of adhesive made by YOKOHAMA (one component urethane adhesive to be used with primer in combination). When
using primer and adhesive made by other manufacturers, be sure to refer to handling instructions
supplied with them. Negligence in following such procedure or misuse of the adhesive in any way
hinders its inherent adhesive property. Therefore, before the work, make sure to read carefully the
instruction and description given by the maker of the adhesive to be used and be sure to follow the
procedure and observe each precaution throughout the work.
• Should coated surface be scratched or otherwise damaged, be sure to repair damaged part, or corrosion may start from there.

Use the specific adhesive which has the following property.
Glass adhesive shearing strength
40 kg/cm2 (569 lb/in2) or more
Adhesive materials and tools required for removal and installation.
• One component urethane adhesive and primers used in combination (For one sheet of windshield). – Adhesive (470 g (15.7 oz.))
– Primer for glass (30 g (1.0 oz.))
– Primer for body (30 g (1.0 oz.))
– Primer for molding (30 g (1.0 oz.))

General Description
Anti-Corrosion Treatment ConstructionS7RS0B9C01001
WARNING!
Standard shop practices, particularly eye protection, should be followed during the performance of the
following operations to avoid personal injury.

As rust proof treatment, steel sheets are given corrosion resistance on the interior and/or exterior.
These corrosion resistance steel sheet materials ar e called one of two-side galvanized steel sheets.
It is for the sake of rust protection that these materials are selected and given a variety of treatments as described
blow.
• Steel sheets are treated with cathodic electro primer which is excellent in corrosion resistance.
• Rust proof wax coatings are applied to door and side sill insides where mois ture is liable to stay.
• Vinyl coating is applied to body underside and wheel housing inside.
• Sealer is applied to door hem, engine compartment steel sheet-to-steel sheet joint, and the like portions to prevent water penetration and resulting in rust occurrence.
In panel replacement or collision damage repair, leaving the relevant area untreated as it is in any operation which
does disturb the rust proof treatment will cause corrosion to th at area. Therefore, it is the essential function of any
repair operation to correctly recoat t he related surfaces of the relevant area.
All the metal panels are coated with metal conditioners an d primer coating during vehicle production. Following the
repair and/or replacement parts installation, every access ible bare metal surface should be cleaned and coated with
rust proof primer. Perform this operation prior to the application of sealer and rust proof wax coating.
Sealer is applied to the spec ific joints of a vehicle during production. The sealer is intended to prevent dust from
entering the vehicle and serves also as an anti corrosion barrier. The sealer is applied to the door and hood hem areas
and between panels. Correct and reseal the originally sealed joints if damaged. Reseal the attaching joints of a new
replacement panel and reseal the hem area of a replacement door or hood.
Use a quality sealer to seal the flanged joints, overlap joints and seams. The sealer must have flexible characteristics
and paint ability after it’s applied to repair areas.
For the sealer to fill open joints, use caulking material. Select a sealer in conf ormance with the place and purpose of a
specific use. Observe the ma nufacturer’s label-stand instructions when using the sealer.
In many cases, repaired places require color painting. When this is required, follow the ordinary techniques specified
for the finish preparation, color painting and undercoating build-up.
Rust proof wax, a penetrative compound, is applied to the metal-to-metal surfaces (door and side sill insides) where it
is difficult to use ordinary undercoating material for coating. Therefore, when selecting the rust proof wax, it may be the
penetrative type.
During the undercoating (vinyl coating) application, care should be taken that sealer is not applied to the engine-
related parts and shock absorber mounting or rotating parts. Following the under coating, make sure that body drain
holes are kept open.
The sequence of the application steps of the anti-corrosion materials are as follows:
1) Clean and prepare the metal surface.
2) Apply primer.
3) Apply sealer (all joints sealed originally).
4) Apply color in areas where color is required such as hem flanges, exposed joints and under body components.
5) Apply anti corrosion compound (penetrative wax).
6) Apply undercoating (rust proof material).
