INSPECTION
1.Check the power tail gate control module input/output value by using the diagnostic tool. If the operation of tailgate
control module is abnormal, replace anti pinch strip control module.
2. When checking the anti pinch strip operation, select a vehicle type and "POWER SLIDING/TAILGATE" menu.
3.Select "POWER TAILGATE".
4.Select the sensor output. And then check the anti pinch strip sensor output while operating power tailgate in power
mode.
※ Above voltage and numerical value may be different from the real value.
5. Change the anti pinch strip sensor, if there is no change from OFF to ON during operation.
REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Remove the tail gate trim (Refer to the Body group - tail gate).
3. Remove the anti- pinch strip sensor connector (A).

4.Remove the left and right side anti- pinch strip sensor (B) after removing the screws (5EA).
5.Installation is the reverse of removal. Part (C) has to be assembled using the cloth.

INPECTION
1.Check the power tail gate control module input/output value by using the diagnostic tool. If the operation of tailgate
control module is abnormal, replace power latch.
2. To check the power latch operation, select a vehicle type and "POWER SLIDING/TAILGATE" menu.
3.Select "POWER TAILGATE".
4.Select the sensor output. And then check the cinch feedback and unlatch feedback output while operating power
tailgate in power mode.
※ Above voltage and numerical value may be different from the real value.
5. Change the anti pinch strip sensor, if there is no change during operation.
REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Remove the tail gate trim (Refer to the Body group - tail gate).
3. Remove the tail gate handle rod, actuator rod and key rod.

are abnormal, replace the washer motor.

Rain Sensor

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
The Rain sensing windshield wiper system is a wiper system that, in addition to providing normal wiper functions off,
mist, manual low speed, manual high speed, and wash, provides automatic control of automatic intermittent automatic
low, and automatic high speeds.
When the ignition key is in the ON position, the rain sensor will be activated.
SYSTEM FUNCTION
BASIC PRINCIPLE
Emitted Beam from luminosity diode is reflected entirely against the windshield exterior, and then turn into photo diode.
If there is water on the windshield exterior, beam seperates optically, and the degree of remained beam is measured
in the photo diode.
What there is water in the windshield, it means beam is not reflected all, so the degree of lost beam indicates the
degree of glass surface wet.
Rainsensor consist of two luminosity diode, two photo diode, optic fiber and coupling pad.
OPERATION CONTROL
Wiper ECU transmits the signal as a rainsesor, and then the rainsensor perceives the rainwater to transmit to the
wiping order wiper ECU, wiper ECU controls the wiper motor according to the signal.
CONTACT INFLUENCE
The rain sensor can malfunction due to the following conditions : a. Contamination of the measurement surface.
b. Air bubbles between the windshield and the coupling pad contact surface.
c. The movement of coupling pad by vibration.
d. Damaged wiper blade.
AUTO OPERATION
1.Operation Condition
Operation mode Operation condition
Direct mode Switch AUTO is basic operation condition that rain sensor perceives dry
windshield. From this condition, the rain sensor decides the wiper operation
mode depend on the quantity and time of measured rainwater
Intermittent mode Operation pauses between 0.5~5 seconds, then the wipers switch to
intermittent mode
Low speed Operate continuously at low speed
High speed Operate continuously at high speed
