6E – 2 STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
In addition to the steering function, the steering column
provides safety and security.
Caution: To ensure energy-absorbing action, it is
important to use only the specified screws, bolts,
and nuts, tightened to the specified torque.
The energy-absorbing column is designed to compress
in a front-end collision to lessen the chance of driver in-
jury.
The ignition switch and the lock are mounted on the col-
umn, allowing the ignition and steering operations to be
locked to inhibit theft of the car.
The column levers trigger the turn signals, the headlight
beams, and the windshield washer and wipers.
Notice: Apply a thin coat of lithium grease to all friction
points when reassembling to ensure proper operation.
The column may be easily disassembled and assembled.

CAUTION: Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a
tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable
will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in B unless otherwise
noted.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM
The windshield wiper system consists of a wiper motor,
a linkage, a wiper arm and a blade, and a wiper/washer
switch. The windshield wiper circuit incorporates a self-
parking device which consists of a worm gear and a cam
plate in order to keep the circuit engage temporarily
when the switch is turned off. The wiper system is driven
by a permanent magnet-type motor. The windshield wip-
er motor is mounted on the dash panel and is directly
connected to the windshield wiper linkage.
The windshield wiper motor has two speeds, LOW and
HIGH, and also has intermittent wiper capability. The
wiper switch is an integral part of the wiper/washer
switch. Windshield wiper operation is actuated through
the lever on the right side of the steering column.
WINDSHIELD WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield washer system is equipped with a wash-
er fluid reservoir, a washer fluid pump, hoses, nozzles,and a wiper/washer switch. The windshield washer res-
ervoir is mounted inner the front right wheel well splash
shield. Attached to the reservoir is a washer pump,
which pumps fluid through the hoses to the two nozzles
mounted on the cowl panel. The washer switch is an in-
tegral part of the wiper/washer switch. Windshield wash-
er operation is actuated through the lever on the right
side of the steering column.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The rear wiper/washer system is equipped with the high
grade vehicle. The rear wiper and the washer are one
assembly. The rear washer is installed to the rear wiper.
The rear wiper/washer switch is same with the wind-
shield wiper. Push the switch to one position forward
and the rear wiper operate slowly. And push more the
switch forward and the rear wiper/washer system oper-
ate.
