4. FUNCTIONS OF RAIN SENSOR
1) Windshield Glass and Coupler Attachment
Check the outer windshield surface of sensing area for wear, damage and scratch. The sensor is able
to compensate the wear up to a specific level. Check the coupler attached surface of windshield for
porosity. If the porosity exists, the sensor cannot function properly.
2) Recognition of AUTO Mode
3) Instant Wipe Function
When the variable resistance knob on the multifunction wiper switch is turned by each 1 stage from
low sensitivity (S mark) to high sensitivity (F mark), the wiper operates one cycle.
And, the wiper also operates during raining up to 5 minutes after rain stops.When the engine is started with the wiper switch “AUTO” position, the wiper operates one
cycle to remind a driver that the wiper switch is in “AUTO” position.
When the wi
per switch is turned to “AUTO” from OFF, the wiper operates one cycle. It always
operates one cycle for the initial operation, however, the wiper does not operate afterwards to
prevent the wiper blade wear if not raining when turning the wiper switch to “AUTO” from
“OFF”. However, the wiper operates up to 5 minutes after rain stops.
If this function does not occur, check No. 2 terminal on the rain sensor. If any defective cannot be
found, check the wiper relay (LOW) for defective. 1.
2.
3.If the installed wiper brushes are out of specification (size and length), the rain sensing area
cannot be fully wiped. In this case, the rain sensor’s sensitivity could be decreased and
the wipers are not properly operated. - The followings are the detailed description of the functions and operations of the rain sensing wiper
control.
As described, the STICS recognizes the wiper switch “AUTO” position. If there are not any
problem, go to diagnosis mode in STICS and check the terminal that receives signal from wiper
and communication lines between rain sensor unit and STICS. -
When the variable resistance knob is rotated by 4 stage from 0 stage without stopping, the wiper
operates one cycle. The wiper operates one cycle when changing the wiping stage (0 →
1, 1 → 2, 2 → 3). -

When cornering with low speed in 4WD condition,
there could be tire dragging, some
mechanical shocks and resistances in vehicle’s
drive train. These are normal conditions due to
internal resistance in the drive train when the
4WD system is properly working

Shock Absorber Assembly
Stabilizer Bar Assembly
The stabilizer bar is intended to force each side of the vehicle to lower, or rise, to similar heights, to
reduce the sideways tilting (roll) of the vehicle on curves, sharp corners, or large bumps. The basic
function is to force the opposite wheel's shock absorber, spring or suspension rod to lower, or rise, to a
similar level as the other wheel. In a fast turn, a vehicle tends to drop closer onto the outer wheels, and
the sway bar will soon force the opposite wheel to also get closer to the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle
tends to "hug" the road, closer in a fast turn, where all wheels are closer to the body. After the fast turn,
then the downward pressure is reduced, and the paired wheels can return to their normal height against
the vehicle, kept at similar levels by the connecting stabilizer bar.

Coil spring -
The shock absorber assembly reduces the effect of traveling over
rough ground, leading to improved ride quality and increases in
comfort. While shock absorber serves the purpose of limiting
excessive suspension movement, their intended sole purpose is to
dampen spring oscillations. The shock absorber in this vehicle uses
the gas to absorb excess energy from the spring.
Shock absorber -
Keep the clearance to drive shaft.
To prevent the transverse force to shock absorber, the upper
center line and the lower center line of shock absorber are
placed on same line. 1.

3. WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Wheel alignment (adjustment of Camber, Caster and Toe) is part of standard automobile maintenance
that consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are set to the specification. The purpose
of these adjustments is to reduce tire wear, and to ensure that vehicle travel is straight and true (without
"pulling" to one side). Alignment angles can also be altered beyond the specifications to obtain a specific
handling characteristic.
When viewed from the top, the distance between the tire centers is smaller in the front than in
the rear. ▶
Side slip protection
Parallel front wheels rotation (straight ahead driving is ensured by toe-in to prevent the wheels from tilting
outwards by the camber while driving)
Prevention of uneven (outward) tire wear Prevention of toe-out from wearing of steering linkage -
-
-
1) Toe-in
The difference of measured distances between the front ends of the tires (A) and the rear ends of the
tires (B) along the same axle when viewed the wheels from the top.
Toe-inFront0.˚±0.10˚
Rear0.48˚±0.15˚
Necessity for Wheel Alignment ▶
Wheel alignment consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are perpendicular to the
ground and parallel to each other. The purpose of these adjustments is maximum tire life and a vehicle
that tracks straight and true when driving along a straight and level road.
The symptoms of a vehicle that is out of alignment are:
Uneven or rapid tire wear
Pulling or drifting away from a straight line
Wandering on a straight level road
Spokes of the steering wheel off to one side while driving on a straight and level road.

2) Camber
The angle between the center line of the tire and the vertical line when viewed from the front of the
vehicle
CamberFront-0.12˚±0.50˚
Rear-1.20˚±0.50˚
Zero camber: When the tire center line is perpendicular to the ground level ▶
Disadvantages:The axle is easy to be bent or deviated in the negative camber than in the
positive camber when load is applied on the axle.
Difficult to control due to wide load area. -
- Advantages:Better traction force due to wide load area (applicable for off-road vehicle)
Better corner driving when the vehicle makes turn as the cornering force -
- Negative camber ▶Disadvantages:Cornering force decreases as the positive camber increases when the vehicle
makes turn.
The hub bearing is worn unevenly if camber is excessive. -
- Advantages:The axle is not bent when it is loaded.
The force required to operate the steering wheel is reduced due to smaller
contact area (or load area) of the tire.
Restoring force of the steering wheel is gained (when turning the steering wheel,
the tire circles and the force to lift the frame is applied. In this case, the shock
absorber contracts and the restoration force is applied to the steering wheel.) -
-
- Positive camber: Top of the tire is tilted outward ▶

3) Caster
The angle between the vertical line and king pin, which fixes the steering knuckle and front axle,
(steering column which connects the top and bottom ball joints in the independent axle type) when
viewed the tires from the side.
CasterFront4.80˚±0.50˚
Rear -
Disadvantages:Impact from the road is transferred to the steering wheel (steering wheel turns)
Poor straightness -
- Advantages:Directional force to go straight (following control)
Restoring force of the wheel (restored to the straight ahead direction)
Prevention of wheel shimmy (wheels wobble left and right) -

-
Negative caster: ▶Top of the king pin is tilted forward from the vertical line of the wheel center
when viewed the tires from the side Positive caster: ▶
With considering the height difference between the wheel centers of the front and rear
wheels. (Under standard condition that the vehicle is on a level ground) Caster: ▶
Advantages:Smaller turning radius -Top of the king pin is tilted backward from the vertical line of the wheel center
when viewed the tires from the side
