Measuring Procedure ▶
Warm the engine up to normal operating temperature.
Remove the spark plugs using the spark plug wrench.
Place the diagram sheet to compression pressure tester A9912 0012B (001 589 76 21 00).

Measure the compression pressure of the other cylinders in the same way.
If measured value is not within the specifications, perform the cylinder pressure leakage
test. -

4) Water Pump
The belt-driven centrifugal water pump consists of an impeller, a drive shaft, and a belt pulley.
The impeller is supported by a completely sealed bearing.
The water pump is serviced as an assembly and, therefore, cannot be disassembled.
5) Thermostat
A wax pellet-type thermostat controls the flow of the engine coolant through the engine cooling
system. The thermostat is mounted in the thermostat housing to the front of the cylinder head.
The thermostat stops the flow of the engine coolant from the engine to the radiator to provide
faster warm-up, and to regulate the coolant temperature. The thermostat remains closed while the
engine coolant is cold, preventing circulation of the engine coolant through the radiator. At this
point, the engine coolant is allowed to circulate only throughout the heater core to warm it quickly
and evenly.
As the engine warms, the thermostat opens. This allows the engine coolant to flow through the
radiator wherethe heat is dissipated. This opening and closing of the thermostat permits enough
engine coolant to enter the radiator to keep the engine within proper engine temperature operating
limits.
The wax pellet in the thermostat is hermetically sealed in a metal case. The wax element of the
thermostat expands when it is heated and contracts when it is cooled.
As the vehicle is driven and the engine warms, the engine coolant temperature increases. When
the engine coolant reaches a specified temperature, the wax pellet element in the thermostat
expands and exerts pressure against the metal case, forcing the valve open. This allows the
engine coolant to flow through the engine cooling system and cool the engine.
As the wax pellet cools, the contraction allows a spring to close the valve.
The thermostat begins to open at 82°C(180 °F) and is fully open at 95°C(203°F). The thermostat
closes at 80°C (176°F).
6) Electric Cooling Fan
Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from the engine cooling fans to help prevent personal
injury.
This fan is electric and can turn on even when the engine is not running. -
If a fan blade is bent or damaged in any way, no attempt should be made to repair or reuse
the damaged part. A bent or damaged fan assembly should always be replaced with a new
one to prevent possible injury. -

(2) Cold Cranking Amperage
The cold cranking amperage test is expressed at a battery temperature of -18°C(0°F).
The current rating is the minimum amperage, which must be maintained by the battery for 30
seconds at the specified temperature, while meeting a minimum voltage requirement of 7.2 volts.
This rating is a measure of cold cranking capacity.
The battery is not designed to last indefinitely. However, with proper care, the battery will provide
many years of service. If the battery tests well, but fails to perform satisfactorily in service for no
apparent reason, the following factors may point to the cause of the trouble:
Vehicle accessories are left on overnight.
Slow average driving speeds are used for short periods.
The vehicle's electrical load is more than the generator output, particularly with the addition of
aftermarket equipment.
Defects in the charging system, such as electrical shorts, a slipping generator belt, a faulty
generator, or a faulty voltage regulator.
Battery abuse, including failure to keep the battery cable terminals clean and tight or a loose
battery hold-down clamp.
Mechanical problems in the electrical system, such as shorted or pinched wires. ·

3) Charging Time Required
The time required to charge a battery will vary depending upon the following factors:
Size of Battery - A Completely discharged large heavy-duty battery required more than twice
the recharging time as a completely discharged small passenger car battery. ▶
<007b008c00940097008c00990088009b009c0099008c00470054004700680047009300960095008e008c00990047009b00900094008c0047009e00900093009300470089008c00470095008c008c008b008c008b0047009b00960047008a008f0088009900
8e008c00470088009500a0004700890088009b009b008c0099>y at -18°C(0°F) than at
27°C(80°F).
When a fast charger is connected to a cold battery, the current accepted by the battery will be
very low at first.
The battery will accept a higher current rate as the battery warms. ▶
Charger Capacity - A charger which can supply only 5 amperes will require a much longer
charging period than a charger that can supply 30 amperes or more. ▶
State-of-Charge - A completely discharged battery requires more than twice as much charge
as a onehalf charged battery.
Because the electrolyte is nearly pure water and a poor conductor in a completely discharged
battery, the current accepted by the battery is very low at first. Later, as the charging current
causes the electrolyte acid content to increase, the charging current will likewise increase. ▶

9) Starting System
The engine electrical system includes the battery, the ignition, the starter, the generator, and all
the related wiring.
Diagnostic tables will aid in troubleshooting system faults. When a fault is traced to a particular
component, refer to that component section of the service manual.
The starting system circuit consists of the battery, the starter motor, the ignition switch, and all the
related electrical wiring.
All of these components are connected electrically.

3) Fuel Level Gauge
The fuel level gauge displays the resistance value of the float on the fuel sender in the fuel tank
through a pointer. Note that this vehicle doesn't have a service hole for checking the fuel sender
connector in the fuel tank.
The fuel sender and its connector can be checked and replaced only when the fuel tank is
removed. The power supply and resistance value should be measured at the connector in front of
the fuel sender (refer to wiring diagram).
When the power supply and output resistance are normal, the float operation by fuel level may be
defective; if so, replace the fuel sender.
Low fuel warning lamp comes on when:
The fuel level drops to 9 L or less. The lamp goes off if the fuel level reaches 9.5 L or more.This table shows the tolerance and resistance value changes by fuel level in normal
conditions. Therefore, the differences that can be occurred by the road conditions and fuel
fluctuations are ignored.

The surface of lamps can get foggy when raining or washing the vehicle. This is normal and is
a result of the temperature difference between inner and outer surface of lamp cover.
However, if water gets into the lamp, have the system checked at Ssangyong Authorized

4. LIMP HOME MODE
In case of transmission malfunction ▶
If a serious fault occurs in the automatic transmission, the TCU enters the limp home
mode to secure safe driving and protect the automatic transmission.
As power is no longer supplied to the solenoid, the current basic function (P, R, N, D) is
maintained and the 4th gear can be maintained only by the operation of the hydraulic
system without electrical operation.
The ECU communicates with other electric modules with CAN. If a serious fault occurs, the
transmission automatically enters the limp home mode for service.
The TCU monitors all factors which can affect to the performance of the transmission and
diagnose the system according to OBD II regulation. 1.
2.
3.
4.
In case of overheated transmission ▶
The TCU enters the limp home mode when the batter voltage drops below 8 V.
If the transmission is overheated, the shift pattern is changed to the hot mode to cool the
transmission more efficiently.
While the transmission is overheated, the selector lever symbol and engine temperature
warning lamp on the instrument cluster blink until the transmission is cooled down to the
normal operation temperature. If the transmission is excessively overheated, the gear
cannot be shifted but remains in the neutral position. 1.
2.
3.
Towing the vehicle with A/T ▶
The best way to transport the vehicle is to load it to a truck and transport it, especially if the
vehicle is 4WD.
If towing the vehicle with the propeller shaft connected, the transmission or oil pump of
transfer case may malfunction, resulting in internal damage due to poor lubrication. -
