Section 8 Condenser Fan Motor and Condenser AssemblyOn-board Inspection1. check condenser assembly
(1) if the radiator in the condenser is dirty, wash it with clean water and dry it with compressed air.
(2) if the radiator in the condenser is distorted, use the proper tool to correct it.
2. check the condenser for coolant leakage.
(1) use the leakage tester to check the connection area of the pipeline for leakage.
(2) If there is leakage, check the connector set bolt for tightening condition.Component Viewcondenser fan upper cushion

Part VII BodyChapter 1 SurveySection 1 Body StructureThe body is made up of main structure, movable plate work, interior/exterior trim parts, and body accessories.I. Main StructureAs shown in Fig.5-1, the main structure is made up of various assemblies and parts including engine compartment
assembly & front wall parts, floor assembly, left/right wall assembly, rear wall assembly, roof assembly and
luggage compartment main cover assembly etc.Fig. 5-1 Main Structure

6. Roof assembly 7. Front cross beam assembly(1) Engine Compartment Assembly & Front Wall Parts The main function of the engine compartment assembly and front wall parts is to form an engine compartment
and absorb most energy generated when the vehicle is collided from the front. The compartment provides a hood
for the engine and its accessories, which can prevent the front wheel from throwing mud. In the appearance, it
represents the body's design requirements. As shown in Fig.5-2, the engine compartment assembly and front wall
parts include front cross beam assembly, left/right longitudinal beam assembly, radiator cross beam assembly,Body -Survey7-1

7-35Section 5 Painting Techniques After Body RepairIn the practical use, various factors may cause painting damage, such as traffic accident, component rust,
premature damage due to bubble, and local color change etc. It is necessary to make repair locally as the following
steps:I. Base Processing (Pretreatment)1. Remove the paint, and remove the coating on the plate work.
2. Cut the edges and corners, and polish the metal plate without paint and the uneven paint at the edge.
3. Blow and clean the dust and dirt, and remove the grease with degreasant.II. Primer Processing1. Apply the self-drying primer on the bare metal surface.
2. Leave the primer drying naturally, or dry it with the infrared radiator.
3. Apply the self-drying oily putty or polyester putty on the plate work surface.
4. Leave the putty drying naturally or artificially.
5. Polish the putty manually to remove the uneven parts.
6. Polish it manually in water to clear the sandpaper lines.
7. Wash the dirt, polish the oil dirt and putty slurry.
8. Wipe the oil dirt on the polishing surface.
9. Cover the part not to be repaired with protective shield or paper.III. Painting Intermediate Coat1. Paint the second primer.
2. Leave the primer drying naturally or dry it.
3. Find out the sand hole or sandpaper line.
4. Polish it manually in wet condition.
5. Wash the part clean, and leave it drying naturally. (The number of putty applying and polishing depends on the
evenness of the surface to be repaired.)IV. Preparing to Paint Surface Paint1. Paste paper on the surface not to be painted.
2. Remove the dust and grease on the local surface paint.
3. Mix the color the same with that of the vehicle's surface paint.
4. Prepare the paint.V. Painting Surface Paint1. Paint the part with fast-drying surface paint 3-4 times and synthetic resin paint 2-3 times.
2. Leave it drying naturally or dry it.VI. Polishing1. After painting, burnish the part with wax to clear the shadow and improve the effect.
2. After painting, tear off the paper and wipe the ground paint.
3. Check the appearance and quality.Body Repair -Painting Techniques After Body Repair
